I got tired of running market enabler after every boot

This build sets phone to US T-Mobile - you'll see all apps (including pay) for this resolution.

Nice work buddy.

PS. Are you from Canada? Maybe even Toronto?

The reason I ask is I see "The Hip" playing and I know they are big there. Having lived there for 21 years

Thanks. I'm from the other side of the country - Vancouver - old Hip is fantastic!

prairiefire · Feb 5, 2010

Vancouver! nice. I'm in Victoria. Love The Hip.

plemen · Feb 5, 2010

Reuploaded and tested base.

i'm not sure I believe that market enabler actually does anything to the missing market apps for donut and above anymore. why?

1. after booting 320x480, getting full market, then going to 240x320 and using market enabler religiously, after 4-5 days my market still reverts back to having missing apps.

2. after booting a data.img at 240x320, I ran market enabler before entering my google account stuff. missing market apps still missing (paid apps yes, but no pandora, no google listen, no pdanet, no weather channel etc etc).

but i'm willing to be a believer. i'm going to fire this up in 240x320 with a brand spanking new data file and see what rolls. I think we need to find a way to fake resolution to google to avoid missing apps, as the market enabler/t-mobile footprint thing seems to only work for paid apps. waiting to stand corrected though . . . will post back.

This build won't show you the apps for different resolutions - just gives you the full market (as market enabler would) for 320 x 240; I'll have to correct the wording to avoid confusion.

love the build, fast as usual. I see you are feeling lcd.density of 113, I like it. love the animations as well. yeah, to me "full market" means everything - only way to get that, it seems, is booting a fresh data file at 320x480. I should work on a fix for that . . .

berardi · Feb 5, 2010

absolutely love it! same stable build as last time, updated. With bluetooth and fully functional gps, there is really not much more that I could ask for! For my phone and my use, this build is far and away the fastest out there, very smooth. Everything just fits right on the screen too. Nothing fancy but 100% usable.

Love that you have paid apps enabled by default too.

Tatnai, you figure out how to fix the market / resolution issue and I don't think there is a single thing left we can complain about...as small of an annoyance as it is.

Thanks Plemen! great work as usual

timmey · Feb 5, 2010

i´ve installed this version to my polaris and it runs very nice and fast. thanks!

just a few things i noticed:
- data connection works
- camera works
- wifi doesn´t work
- market doesn´t work (always getting a server error message)
- coundn´t test bluetooth yet

wifi not working is a big issue for me since i don´t have a data-plan. hope this gets fixed in the future

I'm not sure what enabling wifi for the polaris entails - I only have a vogue but if somebody sends me the info I'll add an update and add it to the first post.

Any body got google voice to work on this build?
Mine installed fine, but then keep force closing.

would love to, but don't hold your breath . . .

getting that too. going to try clearing my dalvik cache again and re-installing, I wonder if the new footprint has anything to do with it? if what I'm doing now doesn't work, I may try replacing the build.prop with another footprint, will post back.

EDIT 1: ok, i pulled myns build.prop and dumped it in, google voice works again. I don't know if it is the carrier settings (could be) or maybe the lcd.density (don't think so, unlikely but I guess possible; I know I've used 113 before and I don't recall it causing a problem). I've got to go to bed (my wife's about to kill me) so I can't test anymore. Someone should try google voice with myns build.prop changed to 113, and with plemen's changed to 110. I'll assume that plemen's is going to still force close at 110 cause I think it may be the carrier settings. then we'll need to figure out which setting in particular.

what info do you need?

I know nothing about it but I can spend time searching and asking

thanks for your interest in incorporating wifi for polaris
