So, I have read that it's an issue with all Froyo ROM's on the EVO... You can't see paid/protected apps in the Marketplace; supposedly, the apps not showing are not verified to work on Froyo.
Could someone just patch the build_prop like they did on the Nexus One before Google released the official fix?
N1 Fix Thread for Reference: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=693102
If anyone wants to tackle it, the dev of the N1 fix explained what needs to be done here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=693102
I don't have an EVO, nor am I much of a developer; but I just rooted my friend's EVO and was looking for a fix for him when I realized that the N1 had a very similar issue when it was running leaked versions of Froyo.
Just throwing it out there... I could be way off.
I think this should be easy to do. Theoretically you should be able to take buildprop swticher v0.3.1.zip and replace /buildprop/build.2.1 with the build.prop from stock and /buildprop/build.2.2 with the build.prop from CM6 and then follow the directions from that post.
I'm about to test it out myself and see if it works...
Let me know... If it does, could you post the build.prop files that you used?
EDIT: Awesome to see another SC member!
Okay, first attempt boot looped. I think build.2.1 needs to be a 2.2 build.prop modified to look like 2.1 because the stock 2.1 build.prop won't work with 2.2. Should've looked at that more instead of rushing Going to see if I can find the lines to change real quick, gotta go back to work in a few minutes...
It also cleared my Google Account settings haha... trying a new modification but may not be able to upload anything until tonight!
Thanks for your help... Can you post your build.props before going back to work? If so, I will try to work on this more if you aren't able to get it before going back.
Thanks
Just printed and compared the build.props for the N1 fix and see that there are only 2 lines that were changed. If someone wants to provide me with a 2.1 build.prop and the CM6 build.prop, I might be able to get this working.
Don't bother with it man.
I'm the one posted the Nexus thread. I already tried changing the build.prop fingerprints & it didn't fix the issue.
Only thing keeping me from using CM6

After you changed the lines in build.prop did you try reseting Market?

Yep. Even tried pushing it while still in recovery, right after wiping and flashing the ROM. Still a no go
Edit: the to.build.fingerprint is the "fingerprint" it shows when it accesses the Market. So its how the Market decides what apps to show, and sees what kind of device it is & its version

We need a setting like most of the android browsers to allow us to spoof ourselves as stock 2.1 EVO.

Hmmm...editing fingerprint and description *SHOULD* work but it did not work when I tried adding the fingerprint/description from Avalaunch's Froyo ROM. It seems that Ava's Froyo ROM fixed the missing apps issue. It's so very bizarre that we can't get certain market apps to show on CM6 and drives me crazy. There has to be some type of solution, I'm just not sure what it is yet
ok this is what we did on the Hero when we was with 1.5 and got the leak of 2.1 the market didnt show all the apps so we just change it with the nexus one, so i am guessing maybe we can get a 2.2nexus one build.prop and push it to the Evo, make sure to clear the market chache though , it took like 5-6hours for the apps to start showing up on the Hero!! just an Idea

Have you tried just using the whole build.prop from Ava's ROM? Should work ok since they're both 2.2, no idea if it'll fix the issue though.

bootlooops
Edit: nvm, was incomplete.
Sense build.prop files & AOSP build.prop files don't play nice together. Neither do CDMA files & GSM files.
It takes some changes to get the phone to boot with them, or to get radio access with them.
I've already tried a stock Nexus fingerprint, but it still doesn't give access. Like I said, I even pushed the file before even booting the phone (I.E, wipe, flash CM6, push file in recovery, then reboot) and it still didn't work.
Ava's build prop comes up, but no Market. Something else is going on.

Duh, forgot it was Sense for a minute there. I feel like looking into it more but I'm not sure if anyone's going to find a solution.
Does anyone know how I might be able to port the desire hd browser? I love the pinch to bring up windows feature. I'm currently running Skyraider 3.3. I tried extracting it from the sense hd rom and moving it to system/app but that wouldn't install. I'm sure I'm approaching it from a way too simplistic angle. Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks
I'm not sure if you could do this...
The Desire is running the new sense, so this could be a problem?
Maybe if IncDoes chimes in he would know, or if you want to get ahold of him
Let us know how this goes!
how did you move it to your skyraider rom? if you used root explorer then you need to change permissions and then do a reboot.

Yeah I used Root Explorer. I changed permissions to read/write, moved out the old browser, moved in the new browser, changed permissions back, and finally did a reboot. No browser was recognized so I actually went in and hit install but it said install unsuccessful.
any luck with this?
Try this one. It is from the latest leak and does have pinch.
It is for only a deodexed ROM not stock and will work if pushed to /system/app/ with adb.

Well it took me a while to figure out how to push with adb. I didn't know you just do it in the tools folder, I thought you ran adb shell first.
I appreciate your help, but it didn't work just immediately force closes.
Thanks anyways.
Unfortunately, I'm not going to be much help, but maybe I can offer a little explanation as to why it wont work..
From what I can tell, most if not all the HTC stuff (widgets, apps, whatever) rely on some values from /system/framework/com.htc.resources.apk. Basically it is all intertwined into a giant mess. As far as I can guess, the only way to get it to work would be to figure out what values the HD browser is looking for but can't find in the stock Inc framework. Then the stock framework would have to be edited, presumably using values from the HD framework. And as you probably guessed, just trying to run the HD framework on an otherwise stock Inc rom will send you into a never-ending boot loop.
I could be way off base, but that's my understanding of it at least.

You are on the money. On top of resources, I believe there may be a few framework classes required to get the new functionality working properly. This will be a cat and mouse game for a while. Certainly not just an apk push. You will need to make a change, log the failure, find out what its looking for, add said resource/class, rinse, and repeat.

I tinkered with it last night on my 2.2 ROM and there are dependencies all over the place. I think I will just move forward with the leaked ROM and tinker in my spare time.
This brief guide is to help others get Google Wallet working on AOSP based ROMs. There are guides already by Dafoxs and Antiochasylum but they are apparently for Samsung based ROMs and the lib files, etc are incompatible with AOSP based ROMs. Personally, I tried several times and the NFC setting kept getting wiped out so I had to do restores. These instructions are what ManelScout4Life posted and the thread is at his request. All the credit goes to the DEVs that made this possible - I am NOT a developer - Seriously... Lastly, the typical disclaimer applies - I take no responsibility for bricking your phone, etc. I highly recommend making a nandroid backup before any mod like this. These instructions worked on JellyBAM 3.2 compiled by ManeelScout4Life - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2069164
1) The lib files should not be modified like the posts for the SamSung based ROMs. However, you will need the modified Google Wallet .apk that is included in the zip you can download from their threads. I used the attached file that I downloaded from this thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2037372&highlight=google+wallet
2) I already had NFC enabled so ensure it is on in settings if you haven't already.
3) You need to modify /system/build.prop. I used Root Explorer (remember to change to RW) and you have to modify three lines. I made a copy of the existing build.prop before editing because you will revert to the existing file once complete to match your actual device.
3a) ro.product.model=Galaxy Nexus
3b) ro.product.name=yakju
3c) ro.product.device=maguro
4) I then rebooted before installing Google Wallet from the Play store. I then opened the app and performed the setup. The other guides mention getting FCs on NFC and to continue on but I never had any and the setup completed. YMMV.
5) Once the setup is complete with the version of the app from the store, you need to replace the app with the modified version that you downloaded in step 1. I used TB to force stop the app before I deleted it from /data/app.
6) I then use Root Explorer again to place the attached apk in /system/app (remember RW). I checked permissions and removed the group write check but again am not certain if that was necessary.
7) I then changed the build.prop.bak file to build.prop so it is back to before you started.
8) Reboot and hopefully it will work.
Hopefully, this helps and is clear.
Note: I see a prompt in the app shown in the attached pic but it will still work. It is really just a warning about a rooted device.
I pretty much did this, and it didn't work until I fixed permissions on the modded file that I moved to system/apps at the last step, like I saw in the YouTube video

So, I assume you removed the group write permission like I mentioned in step 6 and that fixed it for you? I assume it is the same video referenced in the link I have in step 1. The person checked permissions and removed that one check but he didn't say you had to. I did it anyway and maybe that is why it worked for me the first time that I followed the instructions I listed - from ManelScout4Life.
Thanks for this!

told me to reset the app...and its hanging at 98%...thoughts?
If you reboot and check the "about device", does it show Galaxy Nexus before you even download the app?
Have you double checked the spelling on the other two lines?

I assume the reason for the modified app is for it to continue working after you change the build.prop back to an unsupported device. I guess on AOSP ROMs where S-pen apps don't work, then the proper build.prop isn't as important. You will lose access to external sd card possibly and other issues possibly.

With the Galaxy Nexus build.Prop and Google wallet downloaded from the store, the setup needs to complete before you move to the next steps of reverting the build.prop and pushing the modded app. Those steps are to keep the app working without having issues due to a Galaxy Nexus build.prop. I would delete the app, and start over. I assume you never got an email stating you activated wallet.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using xda premium
Also, did you ever use the steps/zip posted by dafoxs or the other thread (forgot the name)? If so, your NFC setting might be gone or you have incompatible lib files, etc. I would revert to the nandroid backup if you made one before following those procedures which are for Samsung based ROMs rather than AOSP/CM10

Took out battery, replaced it. Boot to recovery and restored Nandroid. Not sure what went wrong but I think I'll give up hopes of Google Wallet. Made me a little skiddish now.
This method of getting Google Wallet appears to break both Google Now and video output on cm10.1 variants that are running the open source audio hal.
Google Now goes into the 'Didn't catch that, retry?' Loop.
Steps to reproduce:
Install cm10.1 later than 01/26/2013
Allow it to boot and stabilize.
Setup Google Now.
Modify build.props to reflect Galaxy Nexus, yakju, maguro as dictated in OP.
Reboot.
Google Now will now have the 'Didn't catch that' error if you attempt voice recognition.

Thanks,
I can't confirm this works on 10.1 (Android 4.2.x) - only confirmed on 4.1.x even though I expect Google Now, etc will be fine after reverting your build.prop. I'm "assuming" Google Wallet will work as indicated in these steps but Google Now, etc may have problems while the bulld.prop stilll indicates the wrong device - temporary until your wallet is working.
However, were you able to get Google Wallet to setup properly?
If you did get it working, did you try changing the build.prop back to original? I don't know if that would solve the Google Now but your steps listed don't indicate that you finished reverting the build.prop.
Please reply with your results for others.
Hello -
I did actually revert the build.props file to the original settings, and Google Now continued to give the same error. I'm about to test it without opening Google now until after the revert and reboot.
Thanks for your help!

Question is, can someone modify the apk as below???
http://www.androidpolice.com/2013/0...-enable-voice-prompt-in-search-results-video/
Turns out, there's a secret flag within Search that lets you use the hotword, set by default to 'Google,' anywhere in search results instead of just the home Activity. By default, Search will let you say "Google" to activate voice input only in the main Search screen, after which you'd have to tap the Back button in order to use it again. It's nice, but it's not very fluid, as you have to keep touching your device.
The secret flag enables it in search results, so you can perform search after search after search without ever touching your phone or tablet.
As for the technical details, the flag is located in res/values/bools and is called hotword_from_results. To activate it, one would flip it from false to true, like so:
<bool name="hotword_from_results">true</bool>

I decompiled, made the above changes, recompiled with no errors, and got it to install but it force closes every time i try to open it. Maybe someone else can provide some insight. I used AutoAPKTool to make the edits
Cans someone resolve this? I'd do it myself but having tons of trouble getting my device to show on adb (after many tries, different methods)
I tried to make an Xposed module to patch it on the fly, but it is not working:
Code:
resparam.res.setReplacement("com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox", "boolean", "hotword_from_results", true);
upon starting the module, I get "Resource$NotFoundException", I tried other forms of the setReplacement method but none worked. I am still new to Xposed, so maybe I am doing this in a wrong way, attached are the sources of the Eclipse project in case someone can make it work.

I just modded this and got it running w/o issue.
I'm on CM 10.2 so I had to do some adjusting as there was an update installed to /data/app, with the original in /system/app.
I just uninstalled the update via the Play Store, and then moved the original (for CM it's QuickSearchBox.apk to QuickSearchBox.apk.bak), and adb pushed the newly modded apk (attached), to /system/app.
After doing all that, BOOM goes the dynamite.
Works for me, YMMV.

Are you rooted? I needed to make this a system app, as mentioned, to avoid signature conflicts, etc.
If so, I can make a zip to install to /system/app for you. I don't think it will work (as you have discovered), if you try and install as a standard app to /data/app, which is what clicking the download link and attempting to install is doing.

OK. So I didn't have any files in data/app so I went ahead and just made quixksearchbox a .bak, and pushed new one after renaming it and setting permissions. Its working great.

Here's a flashable zip. Though, because it has to place the APK in the /system/ folder (partition), the zip (out of the box), is only likely to work on the Nexus 4, since mount points are going to differ by phone. Any other phone you'll have to modify the script.
As mentioned previously, if you want to try and flash, FIRST, be sure to uninstall 'Google Search' from the play store.
Since I don't think there is a way to move a file in edify, and I'm too lazy to include a shell script to run a move command, I instead delete QuickSearchBox.apk if it is in your /system/app/ folder (instead of backing it up if you want to restore later), and then copy over qs.apk (the modded version).
I restored to original, ran the above process on CM 10.2, and got the results expected / desired (i.e. the attached zip is confirmed working in my setup).
It works on PA 3.99. However you'll need to set voice to US English or it won't work.

It works on PA 3.99. However you'll need to set voice to US English or it won't work.

Would be nice if this could be activated with any language.
Is it possible by changing any other flag?

Are you rooted? I needed to make this a system app, as mentioned, to avoid signature conflicts, etc.
If so, I can make a zip to install to /system/app for you. I don't think it will work (as you have discovered), if you try and install as a standard app to /data/app, which is what clicking the download link and attempting to install is doing.

OK, so this may not even be the result of running a custom rom because it hasn't worked with any of them. When I click on Voicemail which isn't setup yet by the way, all it does is send me to my messaging app. It gives me no options to set it up, or check voicemail.

I removed the Visual Voicemail application. It can be added back.
The icon for Visual Voice mail is tied to the Messaging app.
I need to edit the messaging app to rid that icon. for now just use the feature to "hide" it in the app drawer.
of it you want the app, pull it outta the bloat.zip
Okay, thanks

OK, so I downloaded the bloat zip and extracted the vvm.apk it gives me the install option but says install failed every time. Any ideas?

are you using my empty flashable.zip..?
just pull vvm.apk and put in system/app
Once I get my phone back, and or you have S-OFF this won't be an issue.
Aroma will solve a lot of these types of issues as well.
Okay, I put it in place of the null file in the app folder in your flashable zip and after re zipping it it failed when flashing

Don't unzip then rezip. Use a tool like 7zip and drop it into the zip. It failed because by unzipping, you broke the signature

exactly what Ty said.
I am expecting my phone back today, and my first project is Aroma..
so bare with me.. (not you Ty)
I will be getting the ROM to where I am comfortable with calling it a full non beta release.
Only reason it's beta is because I don't have Aroma set up yet, once that is set up, it's game on.
you will be able to re-flash the ROM.zip pick "MOD only" and then select JUST the .apk you want (NO you can't remove apps, use root explorer for that, I think S-OFF takes away write protection but I have no idea yet, if not, then, well, we will need to get used to that .zip that deletes files (it's quite easy, once you try it out and everything)

I forgot to come back and post a thank you, it worked great after I placed the apk into the zip and flashed. By the way, I've run every rom available now for the phone and keep coming back to yours, I appreciate your work.

Have you had any luck ridding the VVM icon and whatever else from the messaging app yet. I had a nasty issue related to the new VVM.
I will spell it out here in case anyone else has this issue.
So i like always update my phone when updates come out.
The new VVM has some addition network elements tied to it on the back-end.
Long story short this 443 update has created randomly dropping my mobile connection. I tried re flashing the radios, the stock rom, going back one radio version, etc. I mentioned this in a post in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/verizon-htc-one/help/wifi-bluetooth-mobile-data-wont-off-t2883253
I don't believe it is anything we have done in here, but the issue was with exclusively mobile data where it would disconnect but still show 4g, anyways back to the VVM
I had to revert to 442 stock rom as it didn't have the disconnecting issue
Since i already ran the newest 443 VVM app with those additional features, the 442 VVM fails with error code 2004 when on a 442 ROM
So i had to be coy when calling VZW to get them to reset this. Lucky they didn't ask SW/HW versions, so basically they had ' reset the network elements ' associated with the newest version. WORKED!
So if this happens to you , all i said was it came down as an update, i didn't like it, and reverted back and now it does not work, etc.... I tried to find the newest update again but cant find it.
I was wondering how the VVM icon still there after removing the APK, that answers that. I tried to load the newest VVM on 442, and epic fail lolz
Just providing some info for everyone

Foolish me, this is so very simple, I just forgot that you have to do it on a 100% clean flash, you can't use a flashable.zip as it is an .xml system edit.
system/customize/resource/allapplication.xml
basically you edit this .xml just search for "voicemail"
you will find this line of code
Code:
<item type="application" packageName="com.htc.sense.mms" className="com.htc.sense.mms.ui.VoiceMailTabActivity" display_order="200" display_hide="[B][COLOR="Red"]0[/COLOR][/B]" />
change it to
Code:
<item type="application" packageName="com.htc.sense.mms" className="com.htc.sense.mms.ui.VoiceMailTabActivity" display_order="200" display_hide="[B][COLOR="Red"]1[/COLOR][/B]" />
to be quite honest though to save yourself A LOT of time, just hit the menu button in app drawer click hide apps and hide it, that is what this MOD does anyway...
