[Q] Problem on installing apps to an unpublished Bada phone (GT-S7250)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Yesterday, I joined the Samsung Bada Developers' Day, and got an unpublished Bada phone, it's GT-S7250 (Wave M).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!

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?

Need to se is it last SW, and need GPS for this phone.CoPilot Live- not work on this device !!

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.

Model number : T8585
Android version: 2.3.4
Based Version : MAUI.11AMD.W11.19.SP.V1,2011/6/23 00:50
Need "working" GPS !!!!!!!

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 !

Maybe this will help : - h**p://www.efox-shop.com/hd9-mtk6573-4-3-zoll-kapazitiver-touchscreen-handy-wlan-umts-android-2-2-gps-dual-kamera-dual-sim-bluetooth-p-236121

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.

[Q] Z1 Compact Chinese version M51w - google services not available but needed

Dear all,
desperately I am looking for a solution for a kind of very stupid and annoying problem:
I bought my Sony z1 compact in China. Model version: M51, Also called "colorful" in China
This Phone has a for China modified Android version installed. Nothing related to google works.
Well, sure the search engine in the browser. But I need the calendar, play store, etc.
Now I am thinking, has anybody experience with this device? ( only find posts to D5503)
Would it be possible to just update it with an international version? (Android 4.4 firmware 14.3.A.0.681)
Do i need to root, unlock Bootloader, or should a "normal update" work was well?
Or any other suggestions how to proceed?
I come the Apple world, where a jailbreak is one download and one click, I rooted a Xiaomi 2s with some small difficulties, but this looks way more complicated with this phone.... So any help would be appreciated..
Thanks,
mic

solved!
Well, developers,
forums are something strange. I really thought that anybody had a suggestion, a thought, an idea or whatever... 70 views and not a single answer.
Interesting.
Sure i could figure out that a root would help of course, but for a newbie like me, all of the descriptions have gaps and require much more knowledge about it, so that there is still a huge risk to screw it up and to maybe not destroy the phone, but to make it not usable until another solution is found.
Since I needed the phone, for receiving calls and SMS, i needed to go the less risky way and in the end - risk was still there ( is the M51w restricted to china and will not handle the firmware of the D5503) I followed the guide on the
"xperiafirmware" page called "Sony XPERIA Z1 Compact D5503 - Android 4.4 - firmware 14.3.A.0.681" ( sorry, cannot post links yet)
I just flashed the Android 4.4 - firmware 14.3.A.0.68 made for the d5503 (according to the guide "1. how to install the newest Android 4.4 for Sony XPERIA Z1 Compact D5503") it worked with out any problems.
One thing that might be misunderstanding is the Flashtool.
After downloading the flash tool its not called "Xperia flash tool", it looks the same as the "androxyde flash tool", and there is a second one which is the " Sony flash tool that is called "Emma" but the flash tool.
So,... just use the one this author linked in his guide, and don't get confused by the names..
Now I have my problems firstly solved. But have to say that, with that some others come...
- Google account sync seems to be not really under my control
- two google accounts even more hard to handle
- and further settings very limited, so that I sometimes even have the feeling i was free with iOS. And the Xiaomi of course let me taste the complete taste of freedom.
- SD card management
- Walkman
- album folders
...
Well , I will figure that out as well.
Hope this post will help somebody!

Just my 2 cents... Downgrade back to android 4.3 I'm pretty sure some of those problems will be solved. And another is Chinese version of Z1C doesn't have LTE support and since you flashed an international version of the ROM LTE might show up in the settings but there's a huge chance it will not work or possibly cause errors. Phones made for chinese market doesn't have google installed because google is blocked in their country. Just a FYI Never noticed your post so I didn't get to assist you before this but seems like you made the correct choice on solving your problem.

Once you get fully up and running, you'll LOL like the rest of us reading that. In this kind of situation you are kind of on your own because until you've tried you'll never know and most of the People reading wont advise you to do something that could potentially hard brick your Phone. You've done what I would have done which is grab an ftf and tried it, not much more you can do.

Same problem
Hi Mic,
I want to follow your example with my Chinese Z1 Compact. Are you still around, in case I have some questions? Have you tried to fix the other problems you mentioned? Any new comments? I am going to try to understand the procedure but I would feel better if I could pick your brain in case I get stuck.
cheers

QNX based infotainment systems and navigation apps

Hello,
I'm actuallty working on Ford's SYNC3 system which is based on QNX 6.50. I have full access to it and would like to modify the navigation system. Actually, the system uses either Telenav (for EU and NA maps) or NNG (for rest of the world). None of those two systems is really satisfying as they are closed source and don't allow much modifications.
Therefore, I would like to build (compile) or port another system; preferably open source.
First I thought of osmand which is open source but I was told that QNX doesn't have everything needed to port it. Now I wonder if Navit : www navit-project org could be compiled for QNX.
So I would appreciate if anybody could help me / give me some info on it.
Regarding closed source apps, I saw that some car brands using QNX run Tomtom. But I can't find anything regarding an SDK for this.
Thanks in advance for all your help / hints.

Maybe it is not appropriate to ask here.. But it seems you have already give up your another thread.
I'm also on to that SYNC3 system, but I only got a update image that I dont know how to extract. Can you tell me how you extract that image?
It seems like QNX6 filesystem but I failed to mount it. I downloaded the files you posted in your another thread, and carved binaries from my own image, the files seems to fit.
Sorry I can't help you about your problem, and sorry for the interrupt, but I really need some help and find nowhere to ask. Thanks.

Hi stang18, I wish I had knowledge on the topic and could help you, but I can't.
I'm very interested if you could elaborate on how you gained full access to the SYNC 3 system.
I would much appreciate it and I believe the people from this thread would also be interested:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/general/connected-car/ford-sync-3-shell-access-t3707308
Thank you so much and I hope someone will be able to help you too.

Well I just noticed that the thread I added above was yours to begin with and seems you've managed to get all the access you wanted.
I'd be very happy if you could share the procedure of how you managed do it.
Thanks!

Windows 10 build 15035 for Surface RT

Windows 10 compiled for the original Surface RT devices has leaked.
Source: BetaWiki
It would be super cool if this community managed to create a working image for the OG RTs (de-bombed & with correct drivers). Anybody here who could share the leaked image with us?

Well, it hasn't exactly leaked yet. Do you have the actual file? I can add the correct drivers and remove the timebomb if I can get my hands on it

Unfortunately no, I don't have access to BetaArchive's FTP. But I would be shocked if nobody on this forum had... Fingers crossed it gets reuploaded soon.

Another thing we need to find out, does it require configuration to boot? Or is it just a bootable install image?

Well I manage to get the file. Its not iso its a zip. But I have honestly not Idea what to do with it, and I try in all inventive ways, LOL!. I could make a torrent file if any its interested on. With the compromise on do a tutorial later if some one manage to do anything with it.

In the end, I won't know how exactly to fix the timebomb unless I can see the file itself. Replacing the drivers are just as easy as copy paste into the wim file.

PM you in a moment!

I've been trying to get this running on Surface 2, the way I've been trying with this is a dual boot with RT 8.1 and I've partitioned my device to allow roughly 12GB for the Windows 10 installation.
Unfortunately there is an issue with nvpep causing a BSOD that is beyond my abilities to solve, without nvpep nothing else will work. I don't have a Surface RT to test with but I read that this issue does not manifest on those devices, however it still won't work out of the box.
I've pieced together some information that might be of help if your trying to install that applies to RT and 2.
Make sure secureboot debug policy is applied and don't forget to enable testsigning and nointegritychecks. If you have Jailbreak killing updates installed its probably faster to factory reset your device.
You will need to replace sdbus.sys and ststor.sys in \Windows\system32\drivers\ with versions from RT 8.1.
You will need to edit the registry on build 15035 to disable UAC - HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\System - EnableLUA set value to 0.
Before booting 15035 you will need to create new directory on EFIESP in \EFI\Microsoft\Recovery and then create an empty BCD Store in that location.
If you don't add the Surface 2 drivers it will actually boot to the desktop but no devices will work (Pretty much every device requires nvpep up and running first), you can play around with it using a USB keyboard and mouse but its a little pointless at the moment.

Would it be possible to share the build with wider community, so more people can have a shot at getting it up and running? I know I would love to play around with it.

Please make no mistake on the significance of said leak. There is no other known more-recent ARM 32bit Windows 10 build available on the Internet. The driver hacking community could appreciate a more open leak very much (just look at what it did to the Lumia 950/XL hacking scene around gus33000).. Sites like uup dot rg-adguard dot net fail to list this build.
