[Solved] Excel Build.prop V1 - Access More Apps

[Charlie]

Thanks Mitre & blueeagle69 - Doh! (this is not going to well)

It must be the one line in the build.prop that needs changing as well, which I can not at the mo' as it causes a bootloop! - Damn and blast.

Unless I need to clear the dalvik cache too as I have only cleared the data from the market app - Also I did read something about it can take market up to 24hrs to catch up.

You'll get there in the end mate. We have faith in you
If it wasn't for the fact that my Excel is due to go off for replacement
I was Googling earlier though about build.prop and how to make a device appear as another to the market. And it showed 4 lines that needed to be changed?
Just can't bloody remember which four lines, lol.
I'm blaming Netflix and my PS3.

Thanks blueeagle69, Yep, getting there - I know what the lines are to edit - it's just the one that's the issue (must be a conflict with it elsewhere in the OS) the Excel is playing hard to get for some reason.

BTW I have been testing this with market version 2.3.2 - What market version do you and Mitre have?

Cheers

I'm using 3.4.4 of the Android Market.
I haven't tried any build.prop files yet as I'm about to do a factory reset on my Excel before I send it off for replacement. I am gonna be lost without it for a few days. I know I have my PC, but it just ain't the same
If you haven't tried it btw, 3.4.4 is great. Supports in app purchases, that I have successfully tested with the superb Blood and Glory. And I have successfully purchased a paid app from the store too. (Chainfire Pro).

Ok, thanks blueeagle69 - I will try that later (been using it on my phone, it is good)

Update: I have been looking at the build.props of the Allwinner A10 Tablet MOMO9 and it seems that others have made changes to, but not to the:-

Code: Select all

ro.product.device=crane-evb

It does look like that bit can not be changed - however there is still plenty of other tweaks that can be done.

Hi,

Am I right is saying that the Excel GPU is a Mali 400MHz??? - Can anyone confirm this please. Thanks.

If so maybe it should have the ID of a Samsung GS 2 if that has the same GPU - Not sure what the GPU is in the Nexus S

[Fonefixer]

The Galaxy S has a SGX540

Nexus S is SGX535

HTH

Ok, Thanks FF,

I was getting confused, because I have see those phones listed with many difference specs - All saying something different.

So what is in the Excel?

[Fonefixer]

Different GPU's were fitted, the ones I gave are in the latest batches.

The only way I know to tell what is actually in it is by getting a proper data sheet from the manufacturers or by looking at the graphics drivers (remember, im no software expert ) and checking id's used in the drivers. Is there a file you can pull from the excel that contains the driver id strings etc?

[Charlie]

FF, maybe, I really don't know - I know what the USB device ID is tho'
