Andriod 2.2 (Froyo) Preview

Don't forget to download Flash 10.1 from the Market. Speaking of Market... Is it just me or are the searches limited? Can't find a few of my old apps. ;o

It's entirely possible Google haven't 'flicked the switch' on the FRF50 build.prop yet, hence no paid apps until they do!

So hot... first legitimate flash on a phone that works fluidly. This is epic.

So how do I backup my Droid incase downloading this fucks over my phone?

[Ragnell]

Also, Will this even work on the droid?

[sruon]

No, not quite... unless you port it.

This makes me very sad that HTC is so slow getting Sense working with new updates. I'll be getting the EVO 4g and im reeaaally gonna want flash with that huge ass screen. Heres to hoping the mod community will this running before HTC does.

We've got it to run on Desire, albeit very bugged... no service/buggy graphics/USB bugs

Shouldn't be very hard to port on EVO and Incredible either.

Found this on MoDaCo forums:

This is just a simple build.prop mod to fix the fingerprint back to the working ERE27 one used in CM. Everything in Settings still shows FroYo, but the Market sees you as ERE27 & thus gives you your protected apps back

To install run this from the directory you unzip the file to:

CODE
adb remount
adb shell rm /system/build.prop
adb push froyo.prop /system/build.prop
adb shell reboot

Then, once it reboots, go into the dialer, and type
CODE
*#*#CHECKIN#*#* which is
CODE
*#*#2432546#*#* for those of you who are too lazy to read the letters

A message should pop up into the status bar after a few seconds depending on your connection speed saying checkin succeeded.

Now you're good to go, open Market and download away

Since I know some of you will wonder what this does, it just changes the ro.build.fingerprint & ro.build.description settings back to ERE27. This alone would normally be enough, but you're depending on luck to when you next check in. Dialing that code in the Dialer will force a checkin.

quick and dirty port on my desire...

Reboots every 30 seconds Q_Q

I hope my G1 can run this, otherwise...I'll just get an Evo or wait for the Dell phones.

Man. I bet this will slow down the Rhodium Android porting a lot. :\
