New Scroll owner

Postby budgester » January 24th, 2011, 10:17 am

Hi all,

Another proud scroll owner here.

I bought the scroll due to the fact that is android based, having used a G1 mobile phone since it first came out, I really like the android platform. I have also upgrade my phone to the motorola defy (another android phone :-) )

I bought the Scroll and keyboard from maplins, it has 1.0.1 on it, I was sitting there playing with it last night and the Market came up as an update, so happily downloaded it, but this morning it has disappeared, oh well time to dive into the guts of the OS and see what has happened.

the market is fucked lol.
storage options no longer support it as the version installed is unlisenced and illegal. Good luck getting it to work various people have had different results!

Going to adobe.com to get acrobat reader has had some success in bringing the market icon back to the scroll

Adobe has realeased some pig awful bloated software in it's time... They're also DRM peddlers which I'm not keen on.
Scroll v1.01, rooted, clockworkmod, custom build.prop, PMT apps disabled.

Yup, www.adobe.com works, so we know that the market is installed on the scroll, so what does adobe do to launch the market on our devices from a webpage ?
