Please post your topic only once. It just clogs up the board when you keep posting the same reply over and over and over.....

Is there a working method to get the market working on stock 2.3.3 with root permissions? Not having much luck finding anything.
I can't get the android id method to work on this version - didn't have sqlite3 to start with so I pushed that but still didn't work

How can I get the bluetooth to work on \
my 10" SYTAB10ST and also how can I update the system?

This method is only for firmware DG2.02 and before. The new DG 2.20 will need a process of its own.

**Disclaimer**


If you brick your tablet i will not be held liable in any way, shape, fashion, or form so proceed at your own risk

Okay so here's the deal i've noticed alot of folks having issues with various parts of the process of getting a working google market.

So i'm going to borrow instructions from various places and put together a piece milled guide of what works for me and has worked multiple times with both firmwares out for the tablet so far.

I will include a sources area at the bottom of the post and link to all original posts where the information is being borrowed from.

All credit for this working market go to the others who came before me and wrote the guides i used.

You need the Android SDK downloaded and installed on your machine if you don't have this please see here

Once you have the SDK installed you can proceed (you need the SDK for a working adb setup and for the emulator for ugly market hack)

Ugly Market Hack
Follow the instructions on this page until the step where it says "Setup an android Emulator"

Now follow the directions here to download a working emulator that already has market installed.

Once you have a working emulator that you can successfully download an app from the market to follow the instructions on this page to get your AndroidID

Once you have your androidID open notepad and copy the output from the command to notepad. Save this somewhere you won't lose it this is the part that makes this easy to do again and again if you mess up your tablet :)

Once you have your id go ahead and copy the command the following command and paste it into your notepad with your android id in it.

Code:
adb shell sqlite3  /data/data/com.google.android.googleapps/databases/gls.db "update meta  set intvalue='ANDROID_ID_HERE' where name='androidId'";
replace ANDROID_ID_HERE with whatever your real Android ID is

make sure you save the text document again.

Putting the market experience on your tablet

Setting up adbwifi and prepping tablet for market

1st things 1st you are going to need 3 apps to get things rolling on the tablet.

Universal AndRoot
Gscript
Android System Info (optional but i use it for easy access to my ip among other things it gives me info on)

Download these three and put them on your SD card.

I prefer to do this on a fresh wipe of the tablet so feel free to try it without wiping yours but i've always had issues without wiping.

To reset the tablet back to factory and wipe all your data off do the following.

******THIS WILL ERASE ALL YOUR INFO STORED INTERNALLY******

With the tablet off hold the menu button, press on the screen while holding both of these press the power button. Once you see the screen with white text stating to load recovery image press the appropriate keys release all buttons

then press menu and power at the same time. The tablet will then go through the process of restoring it back to Stock (the last update you installed ie stock 2.02 not 1.01 or 1.02)

***note some folks are getting the message that no recovery image is found at this point. as of right now i'm not aware of a solution to restore the recovery image***

If you are one of the people who don't have a working recovery image I would not suggest that you proceed any further

Once the tablet has completed this process and is fully booted you'll need to calibrate the screen before you can proceed.

Once you're at the home screen go to the My Pad app that comes pre-installed and navigate to your sdcard.

Install all 3 apps you downloaded at the beginning of this guide.

Once you're done installing these apps

Launch Universal AndRoot and make sure the "Superuser for android 2.0 -2.2" option is selected in the drop down and click root.

Once you get the your device was rooted successfully message return to your home screen and then launch gscript from the app drawer

once gscript launches you'll see a blank window press the menu button on the tablet or the soft menu key on the top right of the screen

click Add Script

For name call it what you want i call mine Adbwifi just to make it easy.

Make sure the needs SU box is checked.

then in the bottom text block enter the following

Code:
setprop service.adb.tcp.port 1111
stop adbd
start adbd
once you have this in here hit the save button and it will take you back to the gscript home screen and now you will see the script we just created.

If you haven't setup your wifi at this time go ahead and connect to your wifi access point.

Once you're connected to your access point launch Android System Info and on the default tab that opens all the way at the bottom will be your ip address write this down you'll need it on your computer in a minute to connect.

Exit Android system info and relaunch gscript.

Click your adbwifi script

It will propmt you to allow this application SU rights tell it allow. (i always tell it remember so it doesn't pop up everytime i need adb for something.)

Now we're done on the tablet for now.

Putting the google experience on the tablet

Download the Experience from here

extract the experience to your working adb directory should be c:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools\

now in open a command prompt window and navigate to your working adb directory should be c:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools\

once there type in

adb connect x.x.x.x:1111 (where x.x.x.x is the ip address you wrote down earlier)

now once you are connected to your tablet you will simply run the market.bat file you extracted a few min ago.

type in
market and hit enter

this will push the Gev1 directory to your tablet and then reboot your tablet.

when your tablet reboots you will need to walk through the setup wizard far enough to get to the skip adding an account screen

once you're back to your normal home screen again run gscript from your app drawer again and rerun the adb wifi script.

once you've done this go back to your computer and reconnect to your tablet

adb connect x.x.x.x:1111 (where x.x.x.x is the ip address you wrote down earlier)

once you're connected you need to run the command that we saved into the text file with your android id earlier in the guide

once you've run this command you can run

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

to verify that you have successfully updated your androidID

once you have your ID updated you need to reboot your tablet before you can use the market

to do this type in on your computer

adb shell reboot

congratulations you should now have a working market.
