Hey there,

I was wondering if there's a way to change the device ID for a specific application on my phone? Rogers launched Android Visual Voicemail today, but the application is only compatible for the Xperia X10 and Samsung Galaxy Q. Change the whole device ID could, I believe, create problems with my other apps.

What I'm looking to do is basically make the VVM application believe I'm using an X10/Galaxy Q, but leave my Raider ID for the other apps.

Is that even possible?

I did search around, but found nothing exactly related to what I'm looking for.

Thanks!
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] cruzin_cruzing:
Yes, it is, you have to change a few things in the build.prop

ro.product.model=PH39100

ro.aa.modelid=PH3910000

ro.product.brand=cingular_us

ro.product.name=htc_holiday

ro.product.device=holiday

ro.product.board=holiday

ro.build.fingerprint=cingular_us/htc_holiday/holiday:2.3.4/GRJ22/172546.4:user/release-keys

and change it into the device you want

Maybe something in system/customize/CID but most like not
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] cedrikfd:
Would that affect ALL my apps?

I just want the Rogers Visual Voicemail Plus app. to think I'm using a Galaxy Q or a Xperia X10, not ALL of my apps.

Thanks!
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] citsong:
It will basically make all apps see your phone as what you change it too. I'd think for the most part with those models you'd pretty much have access to the same apps on the market. What you have installed already shouldn't be affected I think. The visual voicemail from rogers needs to be signed up through them though so this method might not work properly. Just save a copy of your original build.prop so you can go back to normal if it doesn't work out.
[HTC Vivid, Raider, Velocity] cruzin_cruzing:
Sadly it will. You could decompile the apk with apktool and edit the manifest but even that is not guaranteed.

That method is down here:

I am trying to do the same thing for an APP called Modern combat 3, i have heard that some were able to play it after changing to an samsung ID.

is there a link on how to change that build.prop?

Why there aren't any topics for the Romanian manufacturer www.allview.ro? They make pretty good devices, with nice specs and a reasonable price.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] gxgxg:
Yeah i would love that :thumbup:
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] fonix232:
There are no threads... lemme think...

Oh right! They just take Chinese and other phones/tablets/devices, and rebrand them. Try to find the original device, and you'll most probably find them here.

There is one device what I've exactly recognized:

Allview AllDro Speed - this is the Pioneer Aurora (LY-F1)

Allview Alldro 3 Speed Quad = Onda V972 ?

What do you think guys? Are these two one and the same?

Allview Alldro 3 Speed Quad

Onda V972

And I have this issue after I install the latest firmware JB 4.2.2. from Onda V972: http://youtu.be/sULa5OLbgW0 .

Any suggestions?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] RobiGo:
any new about alldro 3 speed quad?

Why do you removed the video?

You have discovered any news about alldro speed quad rooting, or firmware replacement? I have one of them, and i want to root, or replace the lazy official firmware....
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] dancrow:
The problem was fixed by installing the latest software version from Allview official site.

There are no firmware replacement right now (or I couldn't find one till now).

If you what to root your Allview Speed quad device you can do it like this View attachment 2252943
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] RobiGo:
Thank You for reply!

Yesterday i flashed it with new official firmware, http://www.allview.ro/index.php?id=1637 it is awesome, the tablet is completely changed, is very fast, with no lags...

For rooting with new 3.2.1.4 official Allview firmware, i used

Root_Allview_Alldro3S_Quad_4.2.2_V3.2_LZ.zip (1.6 MB)

https://mega.co.nz/#!xtMwSJBT!cSBNcHXKYFJeh5pwdxRZAiP3TV06coLEeZ7eVh_CPhU

and works well :)

for firmware replacement i hope will work with Cyanogenmod port for Onda 972 ported by Christian Troy but is not tested yet

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=45522946

I think, the Speed Quad is clone of Onda 972 V1 or V2, but more possible it is V1 (the firmware version is same (3.0, 3.2.1), appear with little delay after Onda official firmwares, and in the firmware version in Settings/About is marked the V1) so is hopefully to will work with Cyanogenmod port for Onda...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] dancrow:
I already try it before. It does not work with any of Onda firmware or Cyanogenmod. It needs a compatibility pack and drivers for wireless and camera. I don't remember if was also an issue with screen resolution and orientation.

We should try to post on this romanian forum or this one, or on softpedia
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] RobiGo:
Which version you tested? V1 or V2 hardware version firmware? I have an idea where come the wireless incompatibility... the 972 has not have bluetooth, maybe Allview requested this hardware modification for bluetooth support...

So, does anyone know what other brands sell Gionee GN 715 aka Allview Viper S4G ? I found condor c7 sold by condor.dz
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] dnp_sgn:
I am also foarte interested in an Allview phone replacement for the good old n7000 (still working perfect from day 1, rooted and running 5.1.1 Nightowl) and also interested in finding ways to update it after manufacturer support ends, so a big thumbs up on this topic.

PS: Probabil ar trebui sa ne apucam noi de development, intr-o buna zi vom avea si un thread XDA dedicat, asta pentru ca Allview nu este distribuit in toata Europa si/sau America.

I know this is longshot, but do you still have the original ROM for the Allview 3 Speed Quad HD tablet?

Every link I come across is invalid :(

Or do you have any other ROM you use?
[Atrix 4G General] chamoy:
Hi everyone this is my second post , i have learned a lot about android os on this forum , and i want to share something that i just did 30 min ago

UPDATE FROM STOCK 4.2.91 UNLOCKED BOOTLOADER AND ROOTED ATRIX 4G

try using OTA keeper from the market , before trying the OTA update , this is what i did

1 ) i unlocked my atrix 4g (2.3.4 all stock) with AUTOMATIC_UNLOCK_V4.2 and rooted with PetesMotorolaRootTools_v1.07 after that i installed CWM recovery

2 ) Make a Full backup of you rom using CWM and Titaniumbackup (never is enough)

3 ) MANY people say that using RSD LITE is not good , i just take the risk , because anyways the touch of my atrix is not doing good so i will be sending it to warranty soon anyways , i take the risk , i flash my atrix with RSD Lite 5.5 and this sbf

1FF-olympus-user-2.3.4-4.5.91-110625-release-keys-signed-ATT-US-GAS_NA_OLPSGBATTSPE_P011.sbf

i don´t know any other people but i did not loose any data or apps from my atrix it was everything there , unlocked sign erased , CWM recovery partition erased , ROOT was there it is like everything go back to stock ... almost everything my data part was untoched.

4 ) download from the market OTA Root Keeper make a backup of your root and then press unroot temp

5 ) with that done I started to download and install the OTA update

6 ) after this point the phonewill reboot to stock recovery mode and start to upgrade it took almost 10 min to do the update after finishing copying files, it restarted 2 times on the moto logo then started booting , it take a longtime to pass the att boot image be patience mine took almost 5 min after that the phonestarted with everything loaded my apps , photos videos etc.

I think this could be a workaround (it work for me) for updating to .141 , also the baseband was updated to N_01.77.37P_usa_att

The only thing that was untoched was the webtop part , it stays on WT 1.2, ireally don´t use it , but i think if im already on 2.3.6 i can RDS the full SBF to get Webtop upgraded also the kernel say 2.6.32.9 is that the correct kernel for 2.3.6 i read that kernel is for a Froyo sbf not pretty sure

SOME STUFF TO DO

The thing now is , i wanna try installing CWM recovery and see if im already "unlocked" and try fruitcakes to downgrade 2.3.4 but i am not pretty sure about this i think i will get a brick

Also , you can try investigate to downgrade of wait for a generous dev to take out of the oven the fruitcake for 2.3.6 and try the method above

I TAKE no responsibility with this mini-tuto for anything that could happen to your atrix it on you own do this , i take the risk and it works !!!

thanks everyone

NM.............It's hump day!
[Atrix 4G General] chamoy:
UPDATE :

I just RSD to 2.3.6 with this file :

1FF-olympus-user-2.3.6-4.5.141-111212-release-keys-signed-ATT-US-GAS_NA_OLPSGBATTSPE_P012.sbf

Following of Course the noob guide sticked on this section of the Forum

the phone made fine , it boot pretty fast , i didn´t notice anything strange , just a couple of things

1 ) ROOT SU APP was there (i saved with OTA root keeper) but when i were trying to restore the backup it did nothing ... try using PetesMotorolaRootTools_v1.07 ... FAIL ... ALL IN ONE UNLOCK 4.2 ... FAIL

the old fastboot method did the trick , (the last step failed , install of root.apk because it was already there, i just update it with suupdate fixer and i were on the boat once again)

2 ) A lot of market apps (Firefox, Facebook, Whatspp etc) did strange things like they wanna refresh every 10 sec , i just erased cache using the STOCK recovery partition and reinstalling all apps

Phone feels more dynamic , i mean i don´t know if it is psychologic , but it is fell pretty fast , a little faster than 2.3.4 , WIFI connects faster than before also , i mean this update goes good with the phone

Other thing i notice when i was flashing 2.3.6 with RSD , was that originally my phone said :

ns flash olympus (this was when the unlocked sign was on my boot image)

when i reflashed 2.4.91 the label changed to :

se flash olympus , and also when i flashed 2.3.6

i don´t know what se flash means !!! but i think is something like secure and non-secure

THINGS TO TRY ?

I want to try installing (again) CWM recovery and see if it works , the odd thing is Rom manager said that there is already a CWM Recovery installed , but it isn´t i will try that later and see what happens trying it with the "relocked" bootloader
[Atrix 4G General] narezese:
Well I did that same!! I was on 2.3.4, then I used 2.3.6 fruit cake!!,, then I went back to 2.3.4 with fruit cake, then rsd with att 2.3.4 (without pudding) .. I get a fail to boot, ( the pudding sbf fix it), then I upgrade to 2.3.6 with Motorola software update tool!! And the tried both ics roms! Neutrino, but when I tried to restore to my nandroid backup from 2.3.6 I get a error! That was from the system, so my phone was mess up! I installed 2.3.4 fruit cake, then 2.3.4 sbf (without pudding), then 2.3.6! Sbf, now I got a problem, I can't send/receive pictures. I call att. N they send me some updates to my phone! I still got the problem, I'll call them later today! Also I'm going to try to restore a nandroid backup, n see if I get the same problem with the system step!!
[Atrix 4G General] chamoy:
when you talk about send/receive pictures you are talking about mms ? if that so ... try checking if you have att apn on network setting , maybe something meesed up , the first time after booting my cellphone the h+ wasn´t there just a G inside a blue square and no connection at all , i just restarted the phone clean cache with stock recovery and h+ appear , i think you should try cleaning dalvik cache
[Atrix 4G General] narezese:
Oh yes I'm talking about mms! N got 4 apns including mms, I already clean caches.. Thanks.
[Atrix 4G General] chamoy:

If you encrypt you will not be able to mount /sdcard in CWM, and probably nothing else either

I wouldn't use it until they release a way to unencrypt the phone after, currently only way is to lose all data and reflash rom :/

Hi All

Please don't let me down!!

Just had a Virgin Media SuperHub delivered and installed, I have a Windows XP and Windows 7 PC connected and accessing the internet via WiFi but I for love nor money I don't seem to be able to connect my Hero to the internet, it connects fine to the SuperHub but does not have any internet access. Very frustrating as you can imagine. VM Customer support were next to usless.

I can ping the phone from the hub using the settings in my browser, I can even log in to the User page on the hub from my phone, just cant access any web pages from the phone

I have looked through all the setting and cant see what I need to do. My hero is running Cyanogen Mod 7.

Please Please Please can someone help?

/Rich
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tenpin:
Did it used to work on your previous WiFi network? Before the virgin? Also ensure that the network security code is correct and if still not working try switching to a different Rom. If still the problem persists it may just be a problem with your virgin hub. The only way around this problem I personally see is to get on giffgaffs £10 unlimited data tariff.

Hope that's helped! :)
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] richiev4:
It connected fine to my old router, which I bought because I had trouble connecting it to an old links one.

I have temporarily re connected the router it dose connect to, but I'm now not getting the full benefits of the new Virgin Media one.

Any ideas?
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tenpin:
If it connected fine to your old router, it's definitely a problem with the new router. Most probably the Virgin's modem technology is far too advanced for our old hero's. You could try flashing a new Rom, that may just do the trick, although unfortunately I don't see any other way around this :(

If you've got two separate phone

[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tenpin:
No no certainly not, a daisy chain wouldn't work. You can't get a loop from one modem to another and expect them to function normally.. what was even wrong with your first provider and the modem to change you're mind? I'm sure virgin can fix the problem because you do say the hero identifies the network and connects but no webpages appear, and you try a different Rom?
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 1ceb0x:
Have you tried to reserve the MAC adress of your phone and provide an ip adress everytime you connect through wifi? (you can do this in your router settings - if you can acess that!).
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] richiev4:
I don't have two modems, I have the Virgin Media hub, which is a modem and router all in one and I have my old Edimax router which was connected to my old modem.

Could I run boh routers at the same time like this - my PC's would connect to the VM Super hub and then my phone would connect to the Edimax router which would be connected to one of the ports on the VM Super hub?

I've tried this - still no joy.
[Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tenpin:
You can try, but I doubt you'd have much luck connecting it onto the virgy hub.

They both work correctly on ICS roms. There must be something in Gingerbread that doesn't let the two animations play well together.
