Detection found the Market fix !

[SiScroll]

Unless I've missed something, I installed CWM after installing fw1.02 and haven't had any problems whatsoever! My last hurdle is getting this market fix working, but at the moment I'm having problems with getting the emulator up and running so not much progress at the moment! Have to say though, so far I've downloaded a few apps, both paid and free, and they've all gone through the market without a hitch. There's no market icon on the Scroll anywhere (which I'm guessing is like Android's version of iTunes?) but I've been downloading apps without any problems by finding them on websites, which in turn redirect me to the marketplace.

Next purchase is a micro SD card and then I can load some films up. Any recommendations for a video player, or is the basic media player that's already installed ok?

OK, I'm confused! I get the impression from the guide that I can just pull my ID from my android phone and inject it into my scroll without going through all the emulator business. I have adb working, but I just get 'sqlite3 not found' errors. I'm guessing this is because sqlite3 is on my PC but not on the phone. Any ideas? Or do I have to go through the whole emulation thing?

--EDIT--

OK, I used android ID changer on my phone to get the android ID. Now to see if I can get it on the scroll somehow. Is it a really bad idea to share the ID on 2 devices?

--Another EDIT--

Oh my goodness, I can't believe how easy that just was...

Installed launcher pro - market appears and runs but no downloads
Installed Android ID changer and Astro File Manager on phone
Used Android ID changer to get ID from phone
Used Astro File Manager to back up the Android ID Changer app
Installed Android ID changer on Scroll
Changed the ID
Working market! Including my paid apps from the phone.

Now to see if I have totally screwed things up by sharing the ID!

--UPDATE--

I lost market access after a few days, so maybe there is a problem with sharing the ID between devices. I've now gone through the whole emulator thing and installed a new ID and the market seems to be working again.

This is confusing, did you run commands through a terminal app on your scroll or did you have to run the command via your computer with the scroll connected via usb? I can (hopefully) grab my brother's android ID off his htc desire so i can bypass the whole emulation thing...

John, using android ID changer doesn't involve any messing around with a terminal app or adb, it is dead simple. However, having copied my phone's ID and having lost market access after a couple of days, I have concluded that copying the ID is a bad idea.

The main stumbling block for me with the how-to was that the sqlite3 command didn't work. I fixed that by pushing the sqlite3 file to my scroll. I think it might be possible to run the pc version via adb but that wasn't clear to me from the guide.

I have been reading all the post with regards to this subject.

When i go through the initial procedure my google account settings on the emulator won't go (sign in) through to finish that phase.What do you think is the problem ?

The next question when is says:-
''Open a Cmd Window and go to the SDK Tools Folder

Enter the Command

adb shell sqlite3 /data/data/com.google.android.googleapps/databases/accounts.db "select * from meta";

What does it actaully mean ''open up a command where'' ? Is the scroll connected at this stage or is it all done on the PC.What program do you use

Siscroll - your post of 2nd March :

Is this still working ? Which websites ?

I think this is the same problem I had, the virtual device doesn't have 3G access. It's because you haven't created the virtual machine and copied the image in exactly the right order. Delete your virtual machine, start again and follow the instructions precisely.

It means to open a command window on the PC (start > run > cmd on XP) and cd to the folder where the adb command is. The scroll has to be connected via USB and your PC must have the adb driver. I find it easier with the 'command window here' powertoy installed in XP. Then you can just right click on the folder and open a command prompt.

I ve done everything but when i run

adb shell sqlite3 /data/data/com.google.android.googleapps/databases/accounts.db "select * from meta";
command in the command prompt

I just get the following message
adb is not a recognised internal or external command operable program or batch file

WTF !

Did you "Open a Cmd Window and go to the SDK Tools Folder " - i.e. 'hold shift' while you are right clicking the mouse on the folder with the SDK tools and then select 'Open Command Window Here' from the list that shows. Then enter the above adb command

[Fozzer]

I don't get that option while right clicking with shift but when using windows explorer I get open command prompt here option which once open then gives me
