Easiest way to install market on Gen8! Arctools in Appslib

---

Hi

I have found the application "arctools" in the "appslib-market", which installs market and other tools on the Archos Gen 8 devices...

I didn't try it because I have already installed market and youtube etc. on my A70. But when I have to re-setup my A70 I will give a try.

Just to let you know...

yes in know this great tool since middle of december......it makes many things easier to install....and now it has urukdroid support!!

Nice!!! This works great on my Achos 70, downloaded the market, tested it and downloaded a game (Mortalk Kombat II :D)

Works awesome!!!

Good post!

Oh, thanks.
I'll try on my archos 28.

Didnt work on my 43 with UrukDroid installed, but then none of the market solutions have worked for me including the one with the UrukDroid setup.

Hi, I'm a big noob when it comes to roms and stuff. But I saw a urukdroid or something like that a few times now, can you tell me what is means? And if it is a rom, where I can download it?

Edit: I see what it is now in the development section.
But thanks anyways!

Don't hesitate to report any issues with ArcTools on your Archos 28 here

Just a confirmation regarding UrukDroid support in latest ArcTools releases: it is mainly related to starting/stopping services. Market installer in ArcTools is not meant for Urukdroid system and you should use the Google Apps files instead. (UrukDroid-0.4.2-GoogleMarket.zip)

Is there any benefit to using this instead of the gappsforarchos.apk method?

does the market installed this way show more apps?

thanks

CarsnGadgets, gAppsInstaller and ArcTools work pretty much the same and share the same Google applications, so you can use one or the other to get Android Market installed. ArcTools adds some features like application removal, UrukDroid services starter and Media Library Index optimizer...
