Getting Protected Apps To Show in Market
Certain apps (e.g. SlingPlayer) have special settings which prevent them from being backed up normally. These apps do not appear by default in the market. To enable these apps you need to change the device fingerprint and spoof a valid device.
adb pull /system/build.prop
Edit the following line:
ro.build.fingerprint=generic/sdk/generic:Honeycomb/Nook/eng.rbrune.20110131.162619:eng/test-keys
so that it reads:
ro.build.fingerprint=google/soju/crespo:2.3.2/GRH78C/93600:user/release-keys
This spoofs the Nexus S running Android 2.3.2 per this site
Save the modified build.prop to NC.
adb remount adb push build.prop /system/
Now clear the Market cache. On the NC, open the settings app and make the following changes:
Settings -> Manage Applications -> All -> Market Clear Cache then Force Stop -- DO NOT clear data Settings -> Manage Applications -> All -> Google Services Framework Clear data then Force Stop
Then reboot the NC, for example:
adb reboot
Disconnect the USB cable.
Market should now show the protected apps.
To appear as the Motorola XOOM Tablet
Not thoroughly tested. May be helpful to install apps such as Google Body
In the instructions above, replace the above line:
ro.build.fingerprint=generic/sdk/generic:Honeycomb/Nook/eng.rbrune.20110131.162619:eng/test-keys
with:
ro.build.fingerprint=verizon/trygon/stingray:3.0/HRI39/101999:user/release-keys
Continue following the instructions above.
