Hi guys,
I'm about to pull the trigger on a nc, but need to have skyscape working for it to replace my current archos 101.
I have a link to the apk here, if someone could please install it and see if it runs.
Please also state which Rom you're using.
Cheers, thanks heaps in advance

(Tablet specific version)
Using it on the froyo flashable rom. No problems. Skyscape is the only reason I'm sticking with the froyo rom. Tried it with the CM7 rom but since no device ID is created with this rom, it won't work. The eclair roms won't work as the device ID is created randomly. Skyscape needs a stable fixed ID. I imagine the ID issue with gingerbread will be worked out in the future.

One more thing: When launching Skyscape, you HAVE to be connected via wifi. If not, it will give you the message that the device ID is different or your device is in airplane mode. But once the initial open with wifi enabled, you can use it with wifi off. If you ever reboot, always connect the first time with wifi enabled.
Thanks for the reply.
Have you tried the apk in my opening post?
I think its a tablet specific version as I'm able to use it on my 101 without wifi and without an id. The one from the market for example doesn't work.
Could you please try it and see if it makes a difference?
Cheers

I believe this is the same version I was using. I installed the apk and my paid resources were locked out. It asked me to reinstall the paid resources, but I just am restoring my system instead. Maybe you don't need the wifi to connect for non-paid resources? Your 101 must be generating some ID. Go into the software and click "about." It should show your device ID.
I've just double checked - my archos does indeed generate a stable ID.
However, I do have paid databases on their at the moment and don't need Wi-fi access upon start up... I wonder whats happening?
Do you think they'll fix it in CM7?
Have you tried running Android ID changer (on the market) to set/spoof an android device ID?
I believe the ID problem has been fixed, first by framework patch, and now in the nightlies. The problem is serious enough that I would expect it to most definitely be resolved by the time the Stable release arrives.

I thought it might be giving the problem without wifi because of subscription resources. I bought a four month subscription, so I thought that might be the programs way of checking online first before launching the paid subscription resource. Not sure, though. CM7 does appear to generate a device ID.
My nook is arriving next week
Has anyone had a chance to test skyscape out on the latest CM7 nightlies?
Also you're saying that it doesn't run on rooted stock eclair?

I downloaded the app from the market, created an account. I downloaded the free resources that were available and all seems well. It runs on a full screen.
.Update.....
I did not really read the op very well at first. I uninstalled the market app and installed your apk. Logged into the account that I created and it loaded fine. Actually, instead of 3 resources available for download, I had seven or eight with this version. Looks like it works. This is a great medical database. I am running cm7 nightly 12.
Any way to make it full screen
Is there any way to view skyscape with full screen at nook color? since only a tiny screen appears as if it is in a 3.5inch smartphone

Go to the spare parts app and the option to run older apps in compatability mode. If it is on, toogle off and reboot. If it is off, toggle on and reboot. One or the other sequence works.
Thanks for the update mate
Skyscape is the bomb...especially once you load a few databases on there
Really interested to see if anyone could please try it on autonooted stock 2.1 though, as CM7 while awesome is still not as stable as I'd like at the moment.

Im now trying the froyo that runs off the sdcard but skyscape just crashes- logcat shows the error to be "cannot determine device identification"- I'm guessing my only option is to flash froyo?
EDIT- was using old version- working now!
Or CM7 as it looks to be more stable now
Arggh- just flashed froyo and still skyscape crashes on launch- logcat still lists error as "Cannot determine device identification"- what gives!!! any ideas?

I have installed it.
It seems to be more performance in 3D games.
Flash plugin preinstaled, and it can run the flash animation in Toshiba's web page .
It solves some bug about brong accelerometer axis in some games.
But no Android Market, only the same *sigh* Toshiba Market.
The question is whether we can install FolioMod on top of this update or not. For me,it's not worth updating this without DexterMod, which is already very good imo

if you wantt custom mods, you avoid the update!!!!
THIS UPDATE WILL BLOCK YOUR UPDATE OPTIONS, AND BYE BYE CUSTOM ROMS
I confirm that the root of 5.0131 is ok yessssssss !
I'm guessing this updates the recovery kernel, and the recovery kernel is the only place that the recovery kernel is visible from to write? So root access is not enough for a simple way of updating the whole OS partition.

they might have blocked it on the new update as well, making it really hard to get revert.. but on previous editions you can easily write a new recovery.
the partition is visible at partition 7, but this might have changed.
i have not had the luxury to look at the actual update, so what is inside, is for me to find out.. then we get all the nasty details.
ok guys... anyone having installed this update pls kindly report the following:
1. stability status
(crashes freezez sod)
2. software issue - can sideloaded applications be installed and used?
3. root ability ?
4. 3d games like dangeon defenders working ?
5. custom flashing ability?

When I go to Toshiba Service Station, there is no update available(using Dexters wonderful foliomod). How do I get to see it and if I want to install how do I keep all the wonderful stuff on it already. This is my wifes and not mine so she will get pissed off if she loses everything on it again?

and honeycomb will not appear as display is just 1024x600, so no chance of a google certification for folio100 here, same as with gapps support. so forgot toshiba solving that..
Saw people got honeycomb running on nook color with the same resolution screen... no certification does not mean that is not possible...so we still can have our fingers crossed on that

Just read about the new update and the issues with it. I have my Folio sent in for repair and they always update to the latest firmware before sending back to customer, so it looks like im in deep ****. I know how to use adb and fastboot, use them all the time on my desire hd and my VEGA. Maybe someone could write a good guide on how to flash this old recovery and which of all the rooting procedures that works with the new firmware. I also dont know how to get Folio in fastboot. But if we have a working root we can flash the old recovery or clockwork recovery, is that right? Because if not i might as well throw it away. No use in trying to sell it, no one will buy a useless tablet anyways. HOPING FOR A GUIDE CALLED: HOW TO RESTORE YOUR FOLIO WITH FLASHABLE RECOVERY
For the record i dont make roms! I downloaded this rom from miui.com and added the english pack and the old market since the new market wouldnt download for me. I have been using it and so far only thing that doesnt work for me is the Theme Downloader. Try it out and let me know if it works for you. I have only tried it with Magldr but the rom comes with a SD rootfs.img too so it should work. Someone check the data i use a mifi for my mobile net so im not sure if it works or not. Enjoy
Data is confirmed working! This rom is Android 2.2.1 using warrens 2.6 kernel.
UPDATE - Ok i added an updated 1.2.19 version which fixes the force close when setting wallpapers and the new market is back and working. MIUI 1.2.25 has dropped now and 3dak has released an sd version already.
Updated DOWNLOAD

********************************************************************************
[Original Thread]
I have seen several threads regarding this topic and thought I'd try to consolidate as much as I can in one place.
Credit for the original IMEI work goes to mthe0ry His original thread is here.
Because the NOOK Color is not a phone it does not have an IMEI number. This is why some apps that check for an IMEI number do not work on the NOOK.
Thanks to the work of mthe0ry and now DizzyDen it is possible to modify the framework.jar file in order to create a fake IMEI number on the NOOK Color. Doing so will allow programs such as Swype Beta, the free version of the XDA app, HBO GO, and the Xfinity app to work on the NOOK Color.
Unfortunately you need to have a framework.jar file that matches the ROM you are running as changes to the framework between ROMs can (and probably will) cause problems.
[See DizzyDen's thread for the IMEI generator tool]
*** This is mostly obsolete now that Dizzy's tool handles replacing the framework.jar file and backs up your original file - but I will leave it here just in case it is still useful to someone. ***
Installation:
You will need a file manager with Root access such as Root Explorer.
Download the framework.jar file for your Rom.
Unzip the file and transfer the framework.jar file to your NOOK Color.
Navigate to /System/framework using Root Explorer.
Mount the /System/framework folder R/W.
Rename the original framework.jar to framework.jar.bak.
Using Root Explorer, copy the new framwork.jar file.
Paste the modified framework.jar into /System/framework.
Long press the newly copied framework.jar and select "Permissions".
Change the permissions to match framework.jar.bak [rw-r--r--].
Mount the /System/framework folder R/O.
I recommend you reboot your NOOK although resetting the launcher may be enough.
For those that used my original files or the ones from mthe0ry, the original IMEI used in those files is "12-34567-89012-45". If you wish to continue using this IMEI number [NOT RECOMMENDED] you can manually enter it into Dizzy's tool.

I did a total wipe, stock 1.2 install, then a second total wipe before n82. I then added the modded framework and HBO GO worked really well! But, after adding Dal's 5/13 OC, I then got the spinning circle problem you describe.
I tried re-flashing just n83 to fix it (without Dal's OC), and re-installing the modded framework, but the spinning circle problem remains.
I can't say for sure that the OC kernel broke it -- it could be one of a dozen apps I installed? -- but it's certainly the leading culprit in my case. The 5/13 OC kernel also appeared to break a few of my other apps as well (360 Live failed too, but started working again after I returned to vanilla n83).
I'm going to start the entire process over again tonight to try and narrow down the problem...
I have the 5/13 OC installed but HBO GO is now working on my Nook. Just need to uninstall and reinstall HBO GO. Worked like a charm for me.

I do appreciate your warning (and, as always, all your hard work), but Dal came out and stated plainly that an IMEI solution would not get added to cm7 builds, so the rest of us took his word for it and had to solve the problem some other way.
Now, if you're saying that the solution WILL be built into one of the next few nightlies -- with unique IMEI's -- then that's fantastic!!
However, without it, there's currently no other way to run HBO GO, Swype, etc -- unless we compile our own framework.jar... which isn't an option for some of us noobs.
Has work already begun on a better solution?

This is great news!!!
I will cease and desist as soon as it it completed. Obviously the best thing would be for people to follow mthe0ry's instructions and do this themselves (it's really not that hard) using their own unique IMEI number. That said I'm happy to continue the "hack" method for those who don't wish to do it themselves.
Yes, having multiple devices with the same IMEI could become problematic but so far it's worked for the apps people want. I do appreciate the warning as I probably wasn't as clear about the "hack" nature of this in the OP as I should have been.

please disregard below. in reading the thread better I can see it's not for swype at all but for setting the nook up with an IMEI.
I don't mean to be rude, but why not just use slide-it? I'm cognisant of the simplicity of swype as I use it daily on my Galaxy S, but slide-it is nearly as good and works without fault on the nook (rooted stock and CM7) without any mods.

Concerns about unique devices make me wonder... I have a broken HTC Kaiser sitting on a shelf above my desk. It will never again be a functional device, but yet it has it's own unique IMEI.
Does the IMEI alone tell apps anything about what sort of device belongs to the number? If not, then it seems that I could use the IMEI from that Kaiser or the broken G1 I have.
It doesn't seem like these apps know anything about the device from the IMEI alone, given that people have been implementing this fix with no repercussions. That means apps probably don't check any hypothetical IMEI-device info against what's recorded in the build.prop, so this seems like a safe, workable solution for those of us with defective devices on our shelves.
Is there a way to make this work on a ManualNootered nook with 1.2, or does it only work if you have a custom rom.
Thanks
integrate in CM7
could you not ask the maintainers of CyanogenMod to integrate this in the future nightlies?
they would probably welcome the added functionality
Today we finally see the release of DirecTV's free GenieGo app. hurray...
But wait... i cant use it on rooted devices??? Come on man...
I LOL at you for at least trying and gave me something to do for a few minutes.
if you already installed if from the Markert be sure to uninstall that one first other wise you will get a signature error
i was cleaning up some code and noticed that they also are checking more that just for su..
so that said, if your trying to install on CM or just want to remove that "device is rooted/ operation not avaible in releasebuild" or what ever that said toast on boot and a few other places here is an update. its better coding... (on my part)

Apparently there is an update to Geniego that allows devices to download content off-site. Has the Android app been changed? If so, will you be able to update your modification?

OOH(out of home) streaming currently is only on pc and iphone, once the android app has been updated you bet il "fix" it also.
Works like a charm
Installed it on my S4 and it worked GREAT. Thanks for doing this. My tablet is not one of the one's listed in on the DirecTV web site as a certified device so I can't even download it. I decided to give this a try and it works great.
Many thanks.
Thanks brother your awesome. Installed on my s3 with wicked sensations rom... works perfectly :good:

Thanks so much for the fix. Can't wait till they get the OOH streaming working, but cheers for at least making the app work on rooted android.
Yeah! Was about ready to ship the GenieGo back and let Directv know what I thought of the root check for their Android app. Works fine on my GS2 running the Jedi Mind Trick (JB2) ROM.
I requested a mod to be added to the modaco toolkit with the xposed framework
http://www.modaco.com/topic/361634-...r-xposed-framework/page__st__280#entry2144113
If Paul can add this to the toolkit, there is no need to modify the APK and we can keep the play store version installed.

It takes me two minutes to remove the root and custom rom check (as well as the other things that they check before allowing end user to use the app)
Sure he could do that, but he would have to update his code everytime the app is updated as well. (Package names change, app dev "attempting" to preform checks other ways therefore changing the code and so forth are many reasons I wouldnt think he would bother)
If you have a precaution about running an app that someone (in this case me) has modified (for any reason ) and you want to use the original application you know u can "hide root" with many third party apps, and its even possible with supersu. This way would allow you to use un altered app.
To recap, I have no problem with any additional solutions to reach the same end result. There are many ways to get the same result.
Cheers

Since my Nexus 10 updated to Android 4.3, this app doesn't run. I get error code AR/1001. Can you fix this also?

4.3 broke a lot of apps...
That said, from a clean reboot ( simply for less cluter) run a logcat and launch app grab the failure and send it to me.
Edit:
After some quick googling thats not an app or os problem but something on "thier" side of things.
Google " error code AR/1001" and you'll find what I found .
Sorry for the stupid question - it's been a while that I used my X10 Mini Android phone...
I am trying to revive my phone for my son and just installed newest stock ROM from Sony. Everything works as Sony - expected, however I do not find e.g. the App Kytephone in the store to install. I heard that this app pretty much close down the phone and makes any android phone a great kids phone.
Any help how I can install that app? Any stting or update to marketpalce needed Would updating to any custom ROM might make that App available to install ? Which one is most stable (as my son shouldn't use too many features anyway...)
THANK YOU!
It needs Android 2.2 or higher, and sony's latest update is 2.1, that's why you can't find it in the store, so upgrading to a custom froyo or gingerbread rom should do the trick

Awsome - thanks, will try. I know this is a non-checker question and it all depends on individual opinions... However, could you name any ROM that has its strength in stability and battery life?
I would go with MiniCM7, the last version to run on stock kernel was 2.0.7, which is quite stable.
Or you could try this, which should run on 2.1 too

Kytephone has some uber features, although Kiddo place looks promising. Thanks again for coaching, kid will love his 1st phone

The market will only show apps that are suitable for our phones. You get more choice if you run the latest custom rom (which is Jellybean), but the market will also take into account things like the screen resolution, and the architecture of the chip used.
Apps developed specifically for Armv7 or higher won't run on our phones, which have Armv6 architecture, and if an app requires a resolution higher than 240x320, then the market won't show those options either.
If you want to try an app that is unsopported, find a .apk for that app (use a general search for that app), copy it to your sd-card and install it from there. If the app checks it's own requirements (rather than let google-play decide if it's appropriate) it still won't install though. Sometimes you'll get lucky, but that is really rare.
Usually the only way to get an 'unsupported' app to run is to get a different device that fulfill it's requirements.
