How to get almost all APPs available

Here are the tweaks I use to make almost all APPs show up on GPlay.
Now this does not mean they will actually run! BUt at leastit wont say not-compatible.

Simple build.prop tweaks. Edit you build.prop for these items.
This is th emost compatible setup I have found:

ro.build.tags=release-keys
ro.product.model=GT-I9100
ro.product.brand=samsung
ro.product.name=GT-I9100
ro.product.device=GT-I9100
ro.product.board=rk30sdk
ro.product.cpu.abi=armeabi-v7a
ro.product.cpu.abi2=armeabi
ro.product.manufacturer=samsung
ro.product.locale.language=en
ro.product.locale.region=USA
ro.board.platform=rk30xx
# ro.build.product is obsolete; use ro.product.device
ro.build.product=rk30sdk
ro.build.description=rk30sdk-eng 4.1.1 JRO03H eng.sw1.20120922.113904 test-keys
ro.build.fingerprint=samsung/GT-I9100/GT-I9100:4.0.4/IMM76D/ZSLPQ:user/release-keys
ro.build.characteristics=tablet
# end build properties

Now the next items adds even MORE things to be compatible!!!. But it will require 900supersport to edit init.rc.
These cannot be added to build.prop and must be set before in init.rc

This gets added to init.rc after the net.tcp buffer settings and before the surfaceflinger setprop

# set prop for phone carrier to fix market
setprop gsm.operator.numeric 310260
setprop gsm.sim.operator.numeric 310260
setprop gsm.sim.operator.iso-country
setprop gsm.operator.iso-country us
setprop gsm.sim.operator.alpha T-Mobile
setprop gsm.operator.alpha T-Mobile


Enjoy,

Here's the boot.img with Bob's changes.

Download => Boot Image

download, unzip and replace the boot.img in the 900supersport folder of my ROM Kit.

Put the tab into flash mode start the flash tool and clear the checks from all but boot.img. Flash and you have Bobs init.rc fixes.

Bob, thanks for the tips.

The boot.img changes are made in full, if you still are missing apps then try the build prop changes.

Made the changes to build.prop and updated the boot.img, cleared data from Google play.

But TuneIn Radio is still showing "your device isn't compatible with this version", grrr!

[900supersport]

Just tried side loading tunein. While I can install it won't play.

This link to TuneIn Pro works

Thanks!

Also can this be installed using CWM that you provided earlier? Or should I flash as per instructions?

[maaarghk]

^--- flash as per the instructions given, it is not compatible with CWM flash method


thanks for this ROM. Is there any chance you could share the .config file used for building the kernel?

.. I will give you free unlimited bandwidth on my dedicated server in return ;D

I'd love to share the kernel config but I don't have it.

This is the original kernel that was embedded in boot.img. I've extracted, signed and replaced the graphic with mine.
