[Flipside General] jonsjava:
This is the latest release of my fix (June 14, 2011). This version addresses the Market ID and Moto Blur issue.

I have not had a chance to test the latest version, aside from verifying the awk command works as exptected. The rest is a strong educated guess, mixed with a re-tooling of it to just use Android Debug Bridge to do what I was having scripts do in the past. Should be much more reliable.

IF YOU DECIDE TO USE THESE INSTRUCTIONS: PLEASE, read through this page entirely from top to bottom at least once prior to doing anything. This way, if you are unsure on anything, you can ask the questions you need answers to. I am not liable for anybody messing up their phone because they didn't think to read the F'n manual prior to following these steps.

If you don't read this through completely before starting, and you brick your system, Don't come crying to me. I warned you.

This version makes it close to impossible to brick the system, but I left that bit in to cover my arse.

Earlier today, I wrote instructions on how to root the flipside. Now, I have Unknown Sources enabled. Here's how you can do it.

First, if you don't have root, follow these directions:

Next, you will need to run a script, but for the script to work you will need to install busybox to your rooted flipside. You can either get it from the market, or download it somewhere on the web. I tried installing it from the market, but it just timed out on download for some reason.

Once you have busybox, you have an environment ready for enabling Unknown Sources. Lets do it:

Latest version installs busybox for you]

I have not tested it, so you may still need to tell it to install, but it installs the apk.

1. Download the attachment located in this post.

Unzip to a folder on your desktop.

PLUG IN YOUR PHONE NOW!!!

Double click on the batch file ("enable_unknown_sources.bat"). You may have to run as administrator, but I don't think so. Built on Windows XP (I'm a linux guy who wrote this at work in a couple minutes)

When it prompts for you to OK the super user for "unknown", look at your phone. It should have a prompt. If not, it may be ok. We will see....

once your phone has rebooted, you phone will have "unknown sources" enabled already. Don't worry about rebooting. The batch file did that for you.

Quite a bit less work than before. Good news: it's done! never to worry about it again...unless you upgrade....

DISCLAIMER:

DO NOT FOLLOW ANY OF MY STEPS IF YOU ARE UNSURE OF WHAT YOU ARE DOING! I have done my best to ensure that the instructions are accurate, but I made mistakes in the first revision, so who's to say that I didn't miss something this go 'round as well? If you decide to follow this walk-through, your actions are an agreement to not hold me liable if your phone becomes a pretty brick. I am not responsible for what you do with this information. If you have no idea how to do any portion of these instructions, you can either walk away (best idea), or ask for help here.

I am also not the 2nd shooter on the grassy knoll, nor am I the cause of all your woes throughout life. I always wanted to say that in a disclaimer.
