Intro: This is my first guide, so be nice.. This will give you access to every app on the Android Market. I have downloaded apps that were previously “incompatible” and almost ALL of the gameloft, popcap, EA, etc.. games run without FC, validate, and download their additional data without failure for MY device thus far. It will revert after a restart, but its great to get what you want without having to do TB backup/restores over and over again for stuff you forget/buy later/etc...

If you have changes you would like to see to this guide, please comment!

UPDATE: Feb 5th

I have been tweaking the build.prop for the last month or so, and have found some modifications that will boost performance and increase your battery life. It isn't an ungodly amount, but it is noticeable to me.

The build.prop is attached to the post now, instead of uploaded to an external site.

The old 2.2.6 market is attached for apps that show as "incompatible for your device".

Disclaimer:

I take no responsibility for anything that happens to your device. Do this at your own risk.

YOU MUST BE RUNNING CM7!

YOU MUST HAVE ROOT!

I WILL NOT SUPPORT STOCK!

IF THIS WORKED, CLICK THANKS!!

Prerequisites:

CM7

Root

Root Explorer

Titanium Backup

Attached Files

Terminal Emulator

Lets do this thing:

First, the build.prop

We are going to replace the build.prop, so make a backup of the one you have.

open RE, and head over to /system/

copy that file and put it in a safe spot

Now we are going to put this modified build.prop in the location of the old one.

download this modified build.prop to your phone’s sd card:

open RE and copy the build.prop you just downloaded

navigate to /system/ again

click Mount R/W to give RE permissions to modify these files

paste the build.prop in the /system/ directory

if it asks to overwrite, go ahead and it will make a backup of the original called build.prop.bak

restart your device

Next, the Market

Now, we’re gonna get rid of, and replace some of the market data.

Open TB and delete “or freeze if you prefer” the following from the app list:

Market

This is optional! Do this if you are installing the old market and want it to not update until you restart.

Open up TE and run the following:

pm disable com.android.vending.updater

Now, we replace the Market that we had with the downloaded ones:

install and overwrite data “if it asks” for com.android.vending_2.2.6.apk

open your app drawer

open market “you should see the old version of the market”

HAVE FUN DOWNLOADING!!!

About the build.prop:

I had been screwing around with the build.prop for a while trying to find the best combination of fingerprints and such to put as to get the most out of the market. I discovered that the GT-P1000 “GTab” had the best results, so I changed the following:

ro.product.model=GT-P1000
ro.product.brand=Samsung

ro.build.description=GT-P1000-user 2.3.3 GINGERBREAD DXJPI release-keys
ro.build.fingerprint=samsung/GT-P1000/GT-P1000:2.3.3/GINGERBREAD/DXJPI:user/release-keys

I recently threw in the following performance modifications from various threads all over the interwebs. This combination works well for me. It is already in the new build.prop, so if you find a different setting to work better for you, post it and I will give it a try.

ro.kernel.android.checkjni=0
ro.ril.disable.power.collapse=1
video.accelerate.hw=1
debug.performance.tuning=1
windowsmgr.max_events_per_sec=150
ro.media.enc.jpeg.quality=100
net.tcp.buffersize.default=4096,87380,256960,4096, 16384,256960
