[MOD] Webtop Via HDMI Without a Dock Added support for 4.4.80.MB860 (South Africa)

---

I Modified These APK files to enable the Webtop on any HDMI connection.
Removed the Device ID check from the Webtop Launcher in PortalApp.apk
And Made DockProvider/DockService Display the Webtop as an option whenever an HDMI cable is connected.

We got PROPS from Engadget: http://www.engadget.com/2011/03/05/m...rn-apart-hack/


NOTE THESE FILES ARE FROM THE ATT BRANDED ATRIX v4.1.26
THEY WILL NOT WORK ON THE BELL ATRIX VARIANT

*new* CWM Install Method - CWM Required:
Get CWM here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1019143

Then install the flashable zip here: CWM-ATT-4.1.26.zip

You no longer need to be rooted OR deodexed!!!!
Install Method 1 - No Root or Deodex Required:
Simpler install method:

1. Download The Mod Files here: HERE
2. Hook up your phone via usb with ADB enabled
3. run INSTALL.bat from the unzipped files
4. sit back, relax, wait until it reboots (can take upto 5min, be patient!!)
5. Read the disclaimer below
6. Enjoy!

RETURNING TO STOCK - Root Required:
This will restore the files that were backed up by the install script.
If you were Deodexed it will restore the modified files to the original Deodexed State, if you were not deodexed it will restore to stock and allow motorola updates to work again.

Note: If you were deodexed you can ignore the three lines about the odex files.

adb shell
su
mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mmcblk0p12 /system
cp /mnt/sdcard/WebtopModBackup/DockProvider.odex.bak /system/app/DockProvider.odex 
cp /mnt/sdcard/WebtopModBackup/DockService.odex.bak /system/app/DockService.odex 
cp /mnt/sdcard/WebtopModBackup/PortalApp.odex.bak /system/app/PortalApp.odex
cp /mnt/sdcard/WebtopModBackup/DockProvider.apk.bak /system/app/DockProvider.apk 
cp /mnt/sdcard/WebtopModBackup/DockService.apk.bak /system/app/DockService.apk 
cp /mnt/sdcard/WebtopModBackup/PortalApp.apk.bak /system/app/PortalApp.apk
chmod 644 /system/app/*

Install Method 2 - Root Required:
Other than that, install with ADB

adb push DockProvider.apk /mnt/sdcard/
adb push DockService.apk /mnt/sdcard/
adb push PortalApp.apk /mnt/sdcard/
adb shell
su
mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mmcblk0p12 /system

mv /system/app/DockProvider.odex /system/app/DockProvider.odex.bak
mv /system/app/DockService.odex /system/app/DockService.odex.bak
mv /system/app/PortalApp.odex /system/app/PortalApp.odex.bak
cp /system/app/DockProvider.apk /system/app/DockProvider.apk.bak
cp /system/app/DockService.apk /system/app/DockService.apk.bak
cp /system/app/PortalApp.apk /system/app/PortalApp.apk.bak

cp /mnt/sdcard/DockProvider.apk /system/app
cp /mnt/sdcard/DockService.apk /system/app
cp /mnt/sdcard/PortalApp.apk /system/app
reboot

Or just use root explorer to copy the files to /system/app and rename the .odex files to .bak

Make sure you set the permissions on the files to rw-r--r-- or they will not work.

Then Enjoy your fully functional webtop.

Having problems? Read Below.

Try clearing your Dalvik Cache:

adb shell
su
rm /data/dalvik-cache/system@app*.dex
rm /data/dalvik-cache/system@app*.odex
rm /data/dalvik-cache/system@framework*.dex
rm /data/dalvik-cache/system@framework*.odex

If using the root explorer method, you MUST fix permissions for all three files to rw-r--r--

Thanks Fenny!

Additionally, try unfreezing any frozen apps in Titanium Backup.

Thanks to DG for his ADEO installer script.



Appreciate my work? Buy Me a Beer:

YOU WILL NEED TO BE ROOTED AND DEODEXED!!!!

@DesignGears, Mind if I modify your Installer script to load these? BTW You are in SLC? I am in Draper, We should totally meet up. :P

Other than that, install with ADB

adb push DockProvider.apk /mnt/sdcard/
adb push DockService.apk /mnt/sdcard/
adb push PortalApp.apk /mnt/sdcard/
adb shell
su
mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mmcblk0p12 /system
cp /mnt/sdcard/DockProvider.apk /system/app
cp /mnt/sdcard/DockService.apk /system/app
cp /mnt/sdcard/PortalApp.apk /system/app
reboot

Or just use root explorer.
Then Enjoy your fully functional webtop.

HAHA you beat me to it i was up all night last night doing this ... good work ill test yours out

Hehe told you the answer was in PortalApp.apk.

Can you do the mirroring HDMI too in the same or similar way?
Anyway you're great!

I have been looking into it, I don't think the DockPicker Activity HAS a mirroring option, but I think it should be possible with third party software.

Yes if you dont understand why you need to re read up on it, as .odex files contain parts of the program that were moved out side to be optimized

So, when I copied the last one using Root Explorer it kept crashing the process PortalApp so I ended up removing the battery and yet to test it.
