If you don't dare to edit build.prop in text editor in root explorer or similar, I would recommend you to not touch that file as well as other system files. Sorry if I wasn't giving you feasible advice.

sorry it was late when I post this but the runny v3.3 rcmix3d is in the desire hd thread. But yeah it could be in the build prop settings but be careful with the change but im sure it has something to do with the I D of the phone in your file explorer in the sys folder you will see the buil.prop once your their you will see all the way to the bottom stuff like ro.model.= as example. I also have inspire 4g and i had this issue but when Capychimp updated his rom it was fix

and again I find my self at one of your abusive threads boy this is fun, you said your own a custom rom so why not here is a long shot go to the rom thread take a look and ask in there, and stop being a foul mouthed short tempered prick because frankly you may be making my evening quite fun but you aint going to get any help, and the problems you having with the kitchen maybe be something to do with you needing to be spoon fed information.
And no wear in this thread have you made "numerous" posts saying what rom you are on, except the one post you made after *****ing like a twat again.

Taken from the Checkrom forum post I suggest you read about the rom you are using before making posts like this one again.
In regards to the kitchen make sure you are set to the correct server if its set to the old Revolution ROM 2.7.1 i would take a stab and say they wont work since they are built for XXKI3.
Also try removing cached packages from kitchen pro preferences.
Base XXKI4
Multi CSC
Deodexed
Zipaligned
no increasing ring for Phone.apk
resolv.conf added for faster gps lock
Much Improved an optimal Init.d scripts
Updated DK Engine for the upcoming kernel!
Tweaks to build.prop
JkayV12.1
Minor bug's fixed
smoothness to the core
Included libsqlite.so and libsqlite_ini.so from Android 2.3.7 (improves performance)
Included app_process and system_server from Android 2.3.7 (improves scrolling)
Included sqlite3
Maps.apk to v5.11 with global Navigation (ownhere/Brut.all)
added .salted_hash in sdcard/clockworkmod

Think i have trashed my Prime

Hey all used this guide to upgrade stock jellybean,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1909819
Worked brilliantly and then got above my skill level when removing some bloatware, normally i copy the apks i remove however this time i pressed delete by mistake, now have huge issues with play store and other apps. I have deleted too many apks
Have tried installing google apks again but still no joy. Does any one know of a way i can install JB again to start afresh i did try downgrading as per the guide but that didnt actually remove the JB firmware. I feel although even with huge amounts of help from flumpster (many thanks) we arnt cracking it so a fresh install is prob best, i just hope someone knows how to.
Thanks in advance.
You may try this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1916285
This is the full Rom which should add your so called bloatware again.
Before deleting any apps you may first freeze them and see if all goes well without them.
Actually, there is no need to actually delete them. As long as they are frozen or disabled, they won't be active.

Thanks for the help do you know how i can install as i said my prime is stuck on the startup wizard and i cant get past that, it just says setup wizard has stopped and then recycles it. is there a way of installing from Fastboot or ADB bootloader.
Good question. I would just give it a try. Since you are not within a bootloop you may also be able to adb push missing files and start with a maybe functioning device...

Many thanks Guys.
Can anyone list the commands needed to carry out the above.

first of all, it's easier for you to use market enabler to unlock restricted content. thus, you can download anything from the play store.
but here, I did that for you, fresk apk.

yes. ME wont work without root.
fresh apk downloaded from the play store using ME method. to dowload it form your pc, you need the Apk Downloader for chrome, but latest chrome broke it already. you need to be on chrome 21 to use this if you need it so much.
