Jelly Bean apk files - Motorola Photon 4G

I found these JB goodies, and I figured the photon owners would be interested!

Did anyone try these apps do they work on the photon?

The new market works. Magazines, maps, street view, and books also work. There might be one or two others that I forgot. You can just install them by clicking on them. The other ones dont seem to work. I tried pushing them to the system/apps folder, but still dont get any love.

Someone should try this to see if Google Now will work on the Photon. I recently sold my Photon and moved to Verizon because I moved out of the Sprint service area. Otherwise, I would try it myself. I think it might work though...

I still follow the Photon development because I enjoyed the phone.

It runs if on an ICS ROM but voice input doesn't work.

Sweet. This will help hold us over until JB roms start.

Google now working for me, but can't get Google ears to work for me. Did anyone get it working on the photon?

Hulu to Evo/Evo3d???

Has anyone hear when hulu is coming to the evo/evo3d?
Heard not hear...damn fingers.
i contacted HULU support and they said they were trying their best to get it out for most devices.
I swear, you cant get out an exact answer from no one these days,
Wow...thanks so much. You've actually given me the most direct answer in the past week. Everything from ordering stuff online, to rebates, to hulu, and also to inductive charging. Thanks...I guess I'll just have to keep waiting from between 3am and 9pm from july to may. Haha...thanks

My Verizon

Has anyone found a working MyVerizon apk that will work with the 7/30 nightly synergy rom? I've tried multiple apk files found in other threads addressing this issue, but I always install it and then get a maintenance error. I've ran the fix permissions tool in Rom Manager but still no luck. Is there any suggestions for this issue?

Thanks for the attempt to help. I already had the sso engine, but just for the hell of it I decided to go ahead and redownload this one. After installing this engine I had the same issue as before. Im not a developer so I have no idea what could be the problem, but it would be great if someone could figure this out. I believe many people who have the new capped data plans would appreciate this.

Unfortunately, ATM there is not a working MyVerizon for Gingerbread ROMs. The problem exists on Verizon's end. They won't build an app for Thunderbolts with Gingerbread because officially the Thunderbolt doesn't have Gingerbread.
The price we pay for rooting, I guess.
I want it back too but I can wait. I'm not sacrificing root access for one app.

Having trouble getting NFL mobile to work as well. From what I have gathered if you backed up data using TIBU these apks will work, if not your sol.
I am also on Gingeritis 3D VII, I installed My Verizon from this link and when I run the MyVZW and force me update. It screwed doesn't work anymore after updated. Just like Schedonnardus mentioned pretty much same issue in my side.

(waves jedi hand) You don't want verizon products on your phone.
Any luck on modifying the updated version?
I am assuming you get the message that you have to install some vz log in software to use the app if so I found a work around. i loaded the latest ruu and backed up all system data using titanium. Once I did that I flashed back to bamf and then used titanium to restore the com.vzw.permissions apk once I did that I rebooted and my Verizon started to work. When I get to work tomorrow ill try to post the apk so we can see if it works for others
Ok guys try this:
http://db.tt/2AEdRXd
It should install no problem, but if you guys have a problem drop the file into system/app folder using root explorer. Once installed reboot then download my Verizon from the market.

Launcher from bionic and Droid 3?

Any way to get whatever version of "blur" the bionic and Droid 3 ported to the photon?
My friend has a bionic and his wife has the Droid 3 and their versions of blur are smoother and faster than the "blur" we have. Id use the stock launcher if it was like theirs. Ours is slow and laggy. Both demo units at my local stores were laggy as well so I know its notmy phone.
Sent from my MB855 using XDA App
Strange, my Blur runs smooth without any hiccups, and im running setcpu at 608mhz. So its underclocked on stock rom and kernel.

even with this monster of information reading and work to put in, I would love to see what you brought up........ its shady we got the low end of the stick their launcher is way better than ours ud think with nVid gpu we have id be more likely to have some better animations.... but noooo........ id like to see someone port this over... id gladly donate to the dev that can port the bionic launcher over to our mopho....
This has already been attempted. A few devs have taken a look at this. In my limited time I took a shot also and couldn't figure it out. The search button helps a lot before you start a new thread.

I brought this same thing up when the phone first launched. I really want the droid 3 launcher but it looks like that is a pretty hard task. Motorola's file structure seems to be the most complicated besides Samsung and it's harder than probably thought to be..
I don't think we will officially see it because it's really made for the whole DRoid push that verizon has. I saw somewhere that we actually don't have a blur phone so that's why we are not getting it. The verizon phones are running motoblur.

(APP) Wireless Tether Themed

Here is a themed version of Wireless Tether for anyone who uses it or wants to use it. The app is a free app so I didn't think it would be a problem to post it here for everyone to grab if they want it.
For those that don't know wireless tether is the best (In my opinion) for getting unlimited wife tethering from your phone to your computers either over wifi or bluetooth. YOU MUST HAVE ROOT for this app to work. I changed nothing to the functionality of the app, only to the apperance and have successfully tested on my Photon.
Wife tethering huh..... not a big fan of sharing my wife.
Just kidding man. Looks good

That is a whole nother ballgame, ubuntu touch is a pain. Lol
I've given up on working on it for now, as i really need my phone to be working 110% all the time, so im back to stock....with a handful of modifications ofc.
Using th3bills cm10.1 i was trying to just port it over without having to.build like they say in the porting guide, and no luck outside of a loop. User error really. Its best left to the trusted devs, etc round here.
Our phones can handle it great, and then some, BUT, as with anything over the stock gb, without drivers things dont work as they should. Ubuntu touch is really frikkin awesome to look st, but even if someone ports it, it is only a preview an 90% of the features wont work or are just placeholders. Id let it sit a while, not worth a damn atm. But it does give you a taste of the ui. Which, is tough getting used to as it is very gesture oriented as apposed to click here scroll here that we do on android.
-Cheers- Signed,

If I can find some free time in my super-busy college schedule, I'd like to try my hand at porting it for us. Not just because it would be awesome to have it, but because I'd like to eventually do some app development for it (and it looks like a badass OS for a phone).
Can I put Ubuntu on my Photon even with 2.3.5?
I think you have to unlock the bootloader first.

Unfortunately not. Ubuntu requires it to be unlocked. (ubuntu ATM is highly reliant on cm10 still, so if you can't run cm10,which 2.3.5 can't)

What is the point? We need a decent kernel that can actually support our phone. Atrix 4G succeeded, and all development has halted here. This phone seems pretty much done. Very disappointing.
