[Q] Google Play, where can I get it?? - Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey everyone, I just had to revive my Hero for my girlfriend whose Evo Shift just lost its touchscreen input.
It's running LiquidSense 2.1 and has android market right now, but doesn't let her download anything from market. I'm assuming she needs Google Play to be able to download apps (other than directly installing .apks)
Does anyone know where to get it or could provide its Hero compatible .apk??
Thanks all!!

Nevermind, I found that 2.1 does not support Google Play and just put a Gingerbread rom on it and it ran Google Play no problem!
Cyanogen Mod is pretty cool actually, still have an image of a Sense Rom just for safety though.
Off to fix the Shift!!

You need gapps and install via recovery

Froyo Car Home

Hi
I was wondering if anyone had the apk of the new Froyo Car Home, and will it work on the Hero. I was using CM6 for a few days and found it much better than the Eclair one. I've tried looking for the .apk in the ROM but can't seem to find it.
Cheers
It should be there. I can't download the ROM at work so can't check it myself. I am thinking though that maybe it comes in the Gapps addon pack? Maybe take a look in there.
With regards to it working on 2.1, dunno.

It's in the gapps update
Doh never thought to look in there. Cheers.
Comes in 2 parts, CarHomeGoogle and CarHomeLauncher, neither of them want to install :-(
How did you try and install them? If just by using say 'Astro' you would prob need to push them via adb.
Tried pushing it via Androidcommander to system/app but no dice. As I'm running a deodexed ROM would that be a problem?
Hmmm, I think the files just need to be ported to work on 2.1 Not sure how to do that myself, or even if that will even work. Hopefully someone else will know

how to install java application files ??

any1 know how to install java files from computer
i downloaded alot of files from getjar.com but i can install but when i open it gives me error can you guys help me please
or does aria supports java or not??
i think the aria only installs from .apk files.
what ?? but my htc tattoo had a java application and you can install all javas apps why not in this one??
on the htc spec sheet for the aria, it says it is java-enabled, but to what extent? i'm not sure. i've never tried to install a .jar file onto it.
there is an application in the market called "Java/J2ME Runner" by Netmite, which claims to "Run Java/j2ME/MIDP NATIVELY." perhaps that would do the trick?

are you trying to do this on the stock at&t rom that ships with the phone? i don't imagine you'll have much, if any, luck there.
i'd suggest installing attn1s CM6-FroYo rom and trying it again. if you do like the sense ui though, you could try attn1s liberated aria rom.
You should tell us the exact error you're getting and we'll better be able to answer your question. Your last post said it was being blocked. The stock ROM doesn't allow any apps to be installed outside of the marketplace regardless of what type. So unless you've rooted your phone and used one of the sideloading hacks (search the Aria forums for "side loading") then you won't be able to do this. It's not that the phone can't, but the software is getting in the way.
im trying to install java apps but att rom blocks it soo i was thinking of installing those apps without rooting but anyway i will have to rooted to install these apps
attns1 froyo doesnt support camera yet soo i might wait for that or install librated aria rom
thanks all pplz for answering and helping

Is it possible to install adobe flash on Android 2.2 - Rom: 3.14.161.1?

Hi,
Can some one provide some info?
Market doesn't allow to download adobe flash player onto Android 2.2 - Rom: 3.14.161.1
thanks
Could you be more specific? What error do you get?
I'm not an expert, but as mentioned 1000 times before (you would know this if you would have used the search button) flash on legend isn't supported due to technical specifications.
So that's why I expect no new kernel bring us flash on legend.
If I misunderstood something all the time reading in this forum please feel free to correct me!

As i know flash 10.1 is alredy installed in modacos froyo sense rom for example, i can watch some flash movies, not all, but a few
Find the .apk on Google and install it if you must. You'll see it doesn't work.

That's Flash Lite. Enough for me and most other users unless you want to play Facebook games or watch some streams and stuff. There is an old article with an Adobe employee's statement regarding full Flash on "older" Android phones.
http://androidandme.com/2010/02/news/no-flash-10-1-for-1st-gen-android-phones/
Should still be valid so no chance to see it officially supported, I guess.
Don't be too disappointed though. I have tried Flash on my buddy's Desire. Considering the Legend's screen size, we don't miss much. Would still be nice to have it though.
Flash lite 10.1 seems to be installed on froyo ota vodafone rom.
I can basicly open anything i couldnt before so yes , it's been implemented somehow dont ask me why or how but it's not adobe's flash version.
I can even watch stream movies wich previously it warned me to install flash 9 or above.
EDIT: Wrong it actualy is adobe flash as i just got a Adobe Flash warning
telling me the follow error "This type of media is not supported."
If you use flash detect script in your browser shows flash 10.1 r123 and detect adobe flash playet.

Hey I was confused by that as well when I flashed CM 9 on my Samsung Galaxy S2 The solution to this problem is simple. Go to this site on your phone and download the Google apps (Including playstore) that correlates with the version of CM you are running. I was unable to leave a link in my reply because I am new to this site but a simple google search of "Gapps" will take you to the "Goo.im" Site where you can download the google applications. The site also features an app (APK file) that will allow you to download the apps straight to your phone.
To open these files you must flash them in clockwork recovery mod. I hope this helps. Take care.

[Q] Question about custom rom firmware

Hi guys, im really new to this forum and all about these android stuffs. As this is my first post, im terribly sorry if i started a new thread. yesterday, i flashed my galaxy mini from stock gingerbread firmware to this custom rom forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2409566
it worked greatly, it says that my android version is 4.0.4 . But, when i installed apps that is supposed to work at ICS, it cant work. It can be installed, but when I tried to run it, it just said that unfortunately, the application had stopped working. im really confused. Any help will be highly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
Which app was that? It's probably an app for armv7 only.
It is BBM. I go through the net to find the system requirements, but i found nothing

I see...... Anyway, as i upgraded from stock gingerbread, and after i flashed that rom, it had provided the play store. I want to know, did the Play Store recognize my phone as still a gingerbread or an ICS? or should I flash an ICS gapps package? will that help?
