[Q] Problem on installing apps to an unpublished Bada phone (GT-S7250)

Hello guys, I'm a greenhand on XDA, English and Mobile-dev, so please forgive any of my stupid words if I do have said in the bellowing description.
Yesterday, I joined the Samsung Bada Developers' Day, and got an unpublished Bada phone, it's GT-S7250 (Wave M). The problem is , I found I don't know how to install apps on it .
At first, I tried the built-in app market client, but strangely, I can only found some test apps on it, I guess that 's because the app market server still can't recognize this phone type yet.
Then, I use Samsung Kies on my PC, wish I could send apps to my phone after downloading them with Kies, but unfortunately, still doesn't work, cause it always prompts that the device is not supported.
So, could anyone provides my any idea to bypass all these limitations ? Thanks.
PS: I have do some monitoring work on Kies, and seems that there no validation requests to the server, and thus I think there might be a configuration file on the local disk, containing the supported devices's info, and if we can find and hack it, perhaps we could bypass the limitation.

what display resolution does your device have?
maybe you could ask larioteo for a copy of his app, he has found a method to install one app without kies, but he's only developing in 800*480 resolution

Can you show us the FW code read by kies???
i want to see if i can get the FW you have right now
About hacking kies...i think your phone is HVGA device so you can't install apps that are in kies right now
Wait until larioteo is back from his work to see what we can do about it
maybe we take you as a tester because you know chinese and we don't have chinese localization
Best Regards

Thanks for your reply, as @mylove90 said, the screen is HVGA, 480x320.
I will dig into larioteo 's posts while waiting for his reply.
Acutally, I have found the downloaded app files on my PC, the path is
C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\My Documents\Samsung\Kies\Download\Applications, under this folder, I have found the *.app files, together with the corresponding *.app.img file each. I guess these are the app files I need, but to my disappoint ,when I copy these files onto my phone, I can't install them, it prompts unknown file type.

Hi, mylove90, thanks for your reply.
To be honest , I don't quite understand what do you mean by "FW code", this is the first time I met this abbreviation, I guess you mean the "FirmWare code", right ? If so , Kies shows the firmware version is : S7250XXKI8/S7250XAKI8(XXX) , Hope this is what we need to find.
As to become a tester, I have to say that I'm REALLY REALLY glad to do that, it's an great honor for me that I can do something for possibly all Bada users as my feedback to the community.
And I also had a look at larioteo's post about the voluntas browser, hope I can do somthing for it.
Thank you again,
Best Regards.

S7250XXKI8/S7250XAKI8(XXX)

Thank you for info.
Firmware seems from September... XXX seems Product Code...
About install Apps... as handset is "new" (different Resolution)...
But you could play with bada 2.0 SDK to install few examples...
Maybe be carefully, as it is an prototype and as I know no Firmware is leaked, to fix problems...
Best Regards

I found something, if i wanted to search "S7250XXKI8". There is http://www.badaforums.net/forums/bada2/bada-dev-day-2011-t4913.html discussion on badaforums about Wave M.

Oh Samsung is so evil
XXX is invalid product code for kies updates
you get XXX product code is you damaged your original one
they know that we already got kies firmwares for sure
Best Regards

Hello there i am see left
XXX is not invalid it is the "Default Code", the main product code for all devices, only test devices gets this code, it is the ultimative update everything code.
As i know it from slyfer my tool to watch their server XXX was always the first code that got an open europe firmware, than the others get an upadte like DBT, OXA OXB OXC OXD OXE OXG after that the providers pick another of that and make something liket his VIA DRE and so on.
For more infos you need only to ask.
Picture in 5 minuetes: (also with other codes that you believe me )
note: yes the server changed but not the codes

larioteo know the best, but probably you can't install any apps that already launched. I mean, you can't install the apps that downloaded with Kies. but you can install an app that under development via Bada SDK 2.0 or larioteo's method. I hope I didn't make things worse for you.

Root Cert method via BADA SDK
If you just want to install your own apps on your wave M, ask Laoriteo about the root cert method via BADA SDK.

Really appreciate all you guys very very much, thank you for you kindly replies to my first thread on XDA.
According to your opinions, seems that there isn't much I can do with this problem. Perhaps I can only wait for the publication of this phone type, maybe till that time I will be able to use the built-in Samsung app market client. Or perhaps some hackers may jailbreak Bada, so that we can directly install any apps.
Then, I will be aiming at Bada app development, because I really feel the lack of apps on Bada, especially under the condition that I can't install any apps on this phone now.
Thank you,everyone!

New update for Nokia today!! -> Grab it please!

According to sources from The Netherlands, the Nokia's will get an update today:
http://wmpoweruser.com/nokia-lumia-800-getting-an-update-tomorrow/
I'd really like to get my hands on that update package. So I'd appreciate it if you can grab the update and post it here. It's not difficult. Here are instructions:
1. When your device or zune reports an update: WAIT! DON'T UPDATE YET! First a little preparation!
2. Download Wireshark, install it and run it.
3. In the options make sure you have Promiscuous Mode enabled (Edit -> Preferences -> Capture)
4. Click on the network interface that has your connection to the internet. That will start a trace.
5. In the "Filter" in the toolbar enter this: http.request
6. Click on "Apply"
7. Now start the update of the phone with Zune.
8. When it's done, you can click "Stop capture" in the toolbar.
9. Then File -> Save as to save the capture as a file.
10. Post the captured file here or if it's too big, mail it to me (ask for my mail-address in PM plz).
Thanks a lot!

Anything that could help the hacker community! I'll try that if there's an update and send you the file.
p.s am still on 7720 as I didn't want to risk any chance of a 7720 interop-unlock

According to folks on Twitter, some users already have the 7.10.7740.16 update installed. Unfortunately there is no Update for me avalable. I will try to capture the update, when I get prompted for.

I'm not referring to the 7.10.7740.16 update. That's just the normal Microsoft update. I'm referring to an update from Nokia! But it could be that the update will only be available if you have 7.10.7740.16 installed. I'm not sure.

Ah I see. You mean the Update provided by Nokia only for Nokia devices which updates the nokia specific firmware for the battery update and tethering? I deduced from the last integrated HTC update, that the Nokia Update will also be part of the MS OS Update to version .16.
Well, I hope that the WP7 Connector for Mac will also show me a dedicated Nokia Update. I will try to capture it then.

From the whispers in the corridors it will be around 19:00 CET = 18:00 GMT.

Great I'll have my eye on it. I've already been asked to update to 7740 but I'll hold back see if there's anything newer.
Or would you prefer to update to 7740 before the 'Nokia update'?

I don't care about the 7740 update. Also I don't think it makes any difference for Interop Unlock. But I can't be 100% sure about that.
But it is very well possible that you only get the Nokia update offered when you have the 7740 update installed. It won't offer you a choice of two updates. And the 7740 update was first, so I guess you should install it. Again, not 100% sure about these things.
Ciao,

Not heard of this device. Perhaps a chinese copy of HD2.
OK, found something. It runs on Android, so you can only run Android apps. BTW what exactly you mean when you say things needed?

It runs 2.2 (as mentioned on the web), I don't have any idea if it can be upgraded, as you may know 2.2 isn't the latest version.
For GPS, you can check its specs if it has GPS or not, if yes then you can install the apps from the market otherwise perhaps connect an external GPS, although I am not sure weather an external will work or not.
You can click on 'Thanks' button, if I helped.

Maybe it could help us to help you if you could post the link.
The chinese website where I saw this, mentioned Android 2.2.

Many app not work on this mobile !

since it is running android, so the compatible android apps should run on it, but since its a Chinese clone, no guarantees.
You can trying looking at other android phones by HTC or some other brand, to be safe.

You can try this rom Update_HD2_3G.zip www.multiupload.com/XOVS2HZTHO to remove all chinese aplications and to improve everything.

HTC Titan (AT&T unlocked) Updates?

I recently bought two HTC Titans from the States. They were supposed to be unbranded thru Amazon, but AT&T ones arrived and then were unlocked and working. They both have ROM version 7720 loaded. Connecting through Zune, I get the message that software and phones are up to date. This is obviously incorrect as the following updates are missing: 8107, 8112, 8773. Doing some rearch, I understand that AT&T is not going to roll out any more updates for their phones, even though they are unlocked. I tried forcing the update (by diconnecting while updating) but to no avail. Can anybody please assist with some advice.
Is it true that if the updates are not up to date, then 7.8 won't load and update?
HTC managed to get me a UK ROM, but the file is in .nbf file format and they are scared it wont work on my phones. Should we try and update or is there another solution?
Your help will be greatly appreciated. I want to keep the phones as current as possible and able to accept WP7.8.
Region:South Africa

It's not known so far whether 7.8 will be only available if you've received all previous updates.
I don't think that the UK ROM would have issues, but it might result in problematic signal quality with the non-AT&T radio driver. You might want to HSPL the device and flash a custom ROM with that radio.
Also, be aware that you can force system updates on the phone using th cab sender method.

cab sender method sounds like the answer but seems so complicated if you are not so technicaly minded!

Don't worry, it sounds more complicated than it is. Just read through this thread very thoroughly.
It's really just about making a backup, download a few files (the updates), putting these in a folder, run this tool and press 2 keys. The guide there explains it very in-depth.
Be sure to not to skip the text, as you for instance will have issues if you don't update your languages, too.

Thanks for the encouragement. A few questions if I may please: Article talks about language packs - do these refer to Display language (English) or all keyboard languages?
Tried using Version and Language by Heathcliff74.xap, but phone gives message that it does not recognise file format.
Lastly, should I load all updates in sequence, or can I go straight to Tango (are the others necessay? I presume yes)
Thanks once again Cheers Calli

OTC Updater Dead?

Hey guys! Is the OTC Updater EOL'd? I'm getting an error when trying to update a stubborn device. Do you think there is a string that could be change?
Anyone with an Enterprise Support Agreement want to see if they can find out wassssup if we can't figure anything out here?
The underlying connection was closed: An unexpected error occurred on a send. Encountered web exception communicating with https://fe3.delivery.mp.microsoft.com/UpdateMetadataService, Exception: System.Net.WebException: The underlying connection was closed: An unexpected error occurred on a send. ---> System.IO.IOException: Unable to read data from the transport connection: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host.

Windows Update service migrated to TLS 1.2 but OTC tool is built against .NET 4.0 that does not support TLS 1.2.
Support for Windows Phone 8.1 and Windows 10 Mobile has ended and that’s why also OTC is out of support and Microsoft is not making updates to that.
However, users can still get the existing OTC tool to work by adding 8 required entries:

you can try offline update.

Tried the offline update and updated successfully to W10M. Aside from losing access to the Here WeGo GPS app, everything else works better. Even after the 3G drawdown the phone works well with LTE/4G/2G. A couple of catches: IMS is not provisioned, and Wifi Calling does not work. When I have wifi turned on, all my calls go straight through to voicemail. With WiFi off, they ring properly.
