For 2.2 Market issues, use this mod. (apps not showing up)

For 2.2 Market issues, use this mod.
For those of you having trouble seeing protected apps, I modified our fingerprint in the build.prop. What this does is spoofs the market into thinking its seeing a Droid 2 (with Froyo) It worked for me, let me know if it does for you.

1. Put build.prop into your AndroidSDK\TOOLS folder
2. Connect via USB.
3. CD (Navigate) in CMD to your tools folder

Copy and paste this

4. adb remount

5. adb push build.prop /system/build.prop

6. reboot

To test before you push the build.prop fix, search the market for Us Bank. If only 2 or 3 show up, you are not getting the full market. After this fix, you should see 10 items listed when you search for Us Bank.

Hope this helps.





This can also be done via Root Explorer.



Thanks to Jcase for giving me the original idea way back when. I just basically applied his Eris Market Fix to work with our phones.

Download
New build.prop

Thanks for this. Worked for me. I wasn't even aware I was not seeing all market apps...

How would you go about doing this for Root Explorer, for some reason I'm getting permission denied even though I have root access and su works fine.

Is that the build prop with the stagefright stuff still set to falso so videos work?

Nevermind.. I got it installed via copying the file to sdcard and then cp'ing it over the original after pulling my original for back-up purposes in case of problems. It's working perfectly. Now seeing way more on market.

do i have to rename the file before copying it over? never mind i got it thanks

Yes, videos will work with this one.

call me a noob if u will but how do u do it with root explorer

videos work with them set to true; if you use Rock Player. Also end up with some extremely high quadrant values. 2257 was my last score. And I'm not over-clocked. Reading up enough information to find out if over-clocking is worth it yet.

worked like a charm

Does anyone know how to do this without root? I cannot find the AndroidSDK\TOOLS folder using any types of file managers plus I don't have root access. It's been stressing me out as I can't download some of the premium programs I've already paid for. Thanks in advance!

AndroidSDK\Tools and ADB would be on your PC if you installed them and worked with them.

Without root access it is highly unlikely you will be able to modify anything in /system, which is where the build.prop is.

nevermind i figured it out and it works greatdancedroid

I am having trouble getting SDK to work, and I cannot get root explorer because my market is limited. Is there any other alternative to getting this done?

easier way is to just install an app from market called "eris market fix - free"

It might just be coincidence..

my apps weren't showing up in Market except for payed ones so i cleared the Market cache and used Chevyno1's bkapps script [backup to sd] because I thought uninstalling and then using rstapps script would maybe fix. Before going through the effort of uninstalling every app, I went back to Market to check and all of my apps were back.

I'm pretty sure the eris is not a 2.2 device. It may help with the Us Bank test apps showing up, but not froyo specific apps.

2 People I have talked to reported various things not functioning correctly after using eris market fix on their droid x. which makes sense.

I wouldnt recommend it.

If its to hard for you to push a build.prop, why even bother being rooted?

Mount R/W in root explorer.

what are the froyo specific apps and what kind of problems were people running into using eris fix? so far i've only heard of positive things from it.

Im not going to say its not true but I haven't heard of any problems plus I haven't had any problems getting apps that are used with froyo
