im tryin... ok im on rooted 4.1.26 and i used method #2 ADB to enable this mod...

the only instructions ive found are referencing directories if i used method#1 script...

since i initially entered these commands

to make a backup of the origional files, im thinking i need to enter these commands to get the origionals back and working...

can someone help straighten me out...

whats also thrown me is i have the .odex.bak files, but no active .odex currently running?

EDIT:

the above rm and mv lines worked and i was able to update just fine.... now to reapply the mod.... thinking a bit more into it, the rm lines might not of really been necessary since the mv should of over written them... i guess better save then sorry...

Instructions for rooted phones worked for me after applying the new update and rooting. Had to manually move the apk files using root explorer, but webtop mod works like it did before the update now.

im looking this too
[Atrix 4G Android Development] ricethief:
It works with 1.5.7 if you follow the new instructions to root and then use root explorer to manually move the files over. Instructions on using root explorer to do this are in the OP.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] zen kun:
yea using root explorer works well but you need stop the service before rename or you will have a FC and need pull battery xD

btw i want try see youtube 1080p but my resolution on desktop its 1280x720 any way to increase this??? i got a 42" FHD tv

Accidentally deleted DockProvider.odex

When backing up my files, I accidentally deleted DockProvider.odex

Is this file the same as before the patch? I have the old backup, but not a new back up after 4.1.57

When the new patch comes out later, can I just restore to the old version? Where there any changes in patch 4.1.57 that affected any of these APKs or Odexes?

You would be better off flashing your phone with the stock 1.2.6 image if you are trying to update. I just did it with ease. besides the 1.5.7 update root fix requires a stock 1.2.6

Good luck.

Actually, the latest 4.1.57 root method doesn't REQUIRE a "fresh" 4.1.26 SBF necessarily, it's recommended though. It works fine on top of 4.1.26 already rooted with aRoot.:D

At&t atrix 4.1.57 webtop mod files

Updated Mod Files for AT&T Atrix v4.1.57:

You will need root, get it here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=12540398#post12540398

Install Method 1 - Root Required:

Install with ADB

adb push DockService.apk /mnt/sdcard/
adb push PortalApp.apk /mnt/sdcard/
adb shell
su
mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mmcblk0p12 /system

mv /system/app/DockService.odex /system/app/DockService.odex.bak
mv /system/app/PortalApp.odex /system/app/PortalApp.odex.bak
cp /system/app/DockService.apk /system/app/DockService.apk.bak
cp /system/app/PortalApp.apk /system/app/PortalApp.apk.bak

cp /mnt/sdcard/DockService.apk /system/app
cp /mnt/sdcard/PortalApp.apk /system/app
reboot

Install Method 2 - CWM Required:

Get CWM here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1019143

Then install the flashable zip here: CWM-ATT-4.1.57.zip

Or just use root explorer to copy the files to /system/app and rename the .odex files to .bak

Make sure you set the permissions on the files to rw-r--r-- or they will not work.

Then Enjoy your fully functional webtop.

Returning to Stock:

adb shell
su
mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mmcblk0p12 /system
cp /system/app//DockService.odex.bak /system/app/DockService.odex
cp /system/app/PortalApp.odex.bak /system/app/PortalApp.odex
cp /system/app/DockService.apk.bak /system/app/DockService.apk
cp /system/app/PortalApp.apk.bak /system/app/PortalApp.apk
chmod 644 /system/app/*

Now this time,do you mind i update into my script? I will remove the mod files from my package if updated and put your link in my thread.Just wanna some guys do it easily.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] acardinale:
Fenny,

Are these modified .apk's from 4.1.57?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Gutterball:
I can't get this to work at all using the 4.1.57 att method. When I plug in the hdmi wire into the laptop's hdmi port it doesnt do anything. I tried it on my tv to and wouldnt work either. Do you think the hdmi port on my phone is bad? Shouldnt it get some kind of response when you plug it in?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Fenny:
That's fine, just make sure to at least link to the thread. :)
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Fenny:
Yes, yes they are.

This is symptomatic of either not renaming the .odex files or not setting the permissions on the new files.

You can correct the former by renaming the files and rebooting, and the latter by running the following as root:

chmod 644 /system/app/*
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Gutterball:
I tried both those fixes and still nothing I even tried running the script made by the other guy. It completes but still does nothing. :confused:

hello i was just wondering if there is a way to get webtop using the micro usb and plugging it into a laptop through the usb port?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] abe1990:
i dont know how to use ADB...so i used the 'root explorer' method. however, when i copy the files, and tried to paste it into /system/app it says i dont have to right permission?

i know the instruction says to make sure that I have the permissions on the files to rw-r--r-- but i dont know how to do this?

so can anyone explain how i change the the file permissions?

EDIT: managed to get it work now.

just wondering...is the Entertainment centre suppose to work as well? or only the webtop mode?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] jivester024:
ditto...

I would also appreciate a little help for noobs. Have adb up and running but where are the PortalApp.apk and DockServiceApp.apk upposed to be located when running the script in ADB? I hope that is not a stupid question but I imagine it is.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Jbanger:
So I've tried pretty much everything to get this to work, and theoretically it should be working. I used Godwin's script successfully, but when I plug in the HDMI cable, nothing happens, no prompt at all, not even multimedia option.

So then I found this updated version and used the manual ADB commands without the script everything went fine, but for some reason it still wont do anything when the cable is connected.

Can anyone help me out?
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Gutterball:
I'm in the same boat as this guy. No matter what I do the damn webtop will not work and I've tried everything! Everything seems to work perfect but nothing happens when I plug in! Thought maybe my hdmi port is broken but if your having problems too... Who knows...:confused:
[Atrix 4G Android Development] varun124:
Hey guys im new to android, i tries installing the mod for 4.1.57 by copying the files to the system/apps folder. My phone just started the ongoing force close and i had to reboot. I renamed the odex files after reboot but when i connect to an hdmi cable nothing happens, no options. also, how do i set permissions as the instructions say, i have super manager.

Thanks
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Fenny:
*UPDATE* Added CWM install Method. Note that the CWM methods are as yet untested.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] varun124:
Hey Fenny, looks like a bunch of us are getting the problem where the phone does nothing when connected to hdmi with the 4.1.57 mod. Any idea what the issue is?

Your 4.1.26 mod worked beautifully for me btw, thanks for that.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] abe1990:
yeh i had the force close loop as well. i just rebooted it, then renamed the odex files to .bak

im not sure how super user works, but in root explorer, i just had to long press the file, and a menu pops up. then i select permission, and in there, i was able to change the permission to rw-r--r--

note: in root explorer, i was not allowed to change the permission, until i changed the mount type. it was 'mounted as r/o by default, so i had to click a button, which as at the top on root explorer, to 'mount R/W'. This then allowed me to change permission of files.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Fenny:
I will have to look into it... I am doing most of this without the actual device to test it on.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] Gutterball:
Somebody in the q and a section named link12245 helped me with my problem! It turns out the reason why it wasnt working for me was because I had it hooked to the laptop and the hdmi on the laptop is only for output not input! So I hooked it up to the main hdmi port on the tv and now I have a working webtop! Also anybody using an alternative launcher such as launcher pro or pandahome? Do not use these when you first hook up the atrix to the tv as it will not work that way! Hope this may help somebody else as it has helped me!

Mine works in running 4.1.57 (Rooted Only)

BUT WOW i have to say WEBTOP sucks

took me about 5 min just to figure out how to scroll

(PS use 2 fingers on the lower half of the touch sensitive pad (on your phone) the upper half controls the scrolling of the status bar (top notification bar))

even knowing HOW to scroll responsiveness of the touch sensitive pad IS HORRID

the phone get SUPER HOT around your touch sensitive home keys!

felt like it was going to burn me at some points and had to put it down!

i'll be returning this piece of crap before my 30 days are up

and getting the "LG T-Mobile G2x" when it comes out

it will have mirroring and vanilla android 2.2 with no T-Mobile GUI, AND no webtop!

and being a vanilla android 2.2 os i bet we can mod the crap out of it

I did the same thing. The problem I have is that I am doing it through Root Explorer and the second you rename PortalApp.apk to PortalApp.bak you get a flood of FC's and you can't do anything. I had to go in and rename it back using ADB.

*EDIT* I did it again using ADB and I THINK it worked. The issue I am having is I get nothing when I hook up HDMI. I get a moto screensaver on the TV and no prompt to do anything on the phone (from Motoblur).

[Atrix 4G Android Development] Aielman:
I've updated to 4.1.57 and rooted using the accepted method.

I ran into the syntax error as well using the CWM method. I'm able to run the multimedia dock, but the webtop dock doesn't come up as an option.

I tried to manually copy the files from the zip files using root explorer, and changed the permissions as directed but had no luck. Still only get the multimedia dock option. I'm sure where the problem lies. :confused:
[Atrix 4G Android Development] irus:

[Atrix 4G Android Development] Aielman:
Ok...it pays to carefully read directions. I figured it out. Not only do you need to copy the .apk files and change the permissions on them, you also have to rename the odex files to .bak to get it to work.

Now both the webtop and the multimedia dock selections appear as available and both work.

Thanks for the files and directions...I'll try to follow them more carefully next time :o

[Atrix 4G Android Development] nosit1:
Just a quick note. Today, I was getting those 'You need a 4G compatible data plan blah blah' text messages. I called the store and they switched me to the Smartphone Personal plan which is the unlimited data plan equivalent. Then I realized today that my webtop 3G hack and tethering was gone. Called them up and told them to switch me back to my iPhone's data plan. Once they did that, my tether APN worked fine. Check your plan to make sure they didn't switch you back. If they did, call up and ask for them to move it back like I did. They'll have to get a manager to do it because it's no longer located in the system, but they can do it.

Thanks for the help but I do have the tether hack installed on my phone and have selected it under APN-"AT&T (Custom Tethering)"

Do I need to reboot my phone after I select the tether setting before it will work with WebTop? I do tether my phone with my Xoom via bluetooth but I never had to use the special APN for it to work.

Thanks.
[Atrix 4G Android Development] j101399j:
@madpoet, that error you are getting is becasue when you are running the mount system command, you do not have root access/premission. Are you using the install.bat script? If so you need to do it manually. If you are doing this manually, when in adb shell what happens when you enter the su command, does the $ change to a #?

@rpmbnsf;

That is really wierd, what are the settings for that APN you are using under the APN and APN type fields? It should looks something like:

APN: wap.cingular

APN type: default,agps,fota,supl,fota,tether

and the lock icon needs to be unlocked, unless AT&T is not cracking down on this no matter what

[Atrix 4G Android Development] j101399j:
The ADB fails at mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mmcblk0p12 /system is a problem. I assume you are rooted, well you are if you are using root explorer? If so, you need to do this manually with adb. After you have put the original .apk and .odex files back in the /system/app folder;

Type this into adb

su
mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mmcblk0p12 /system
chmod 644 /system/app/*
rm /data/dalvik-cache/system@app*.dex
rm /data/dalvik-cache/system@framework*.dex
