Hi everyone. Long-time reader, first time poster here.

Well, I've gotten myself in a bit of a jam. My Relay is rooted and has CWM 6.0.1.2 running the stock ROM per one of the awesome devs working on this phone.

Anyone use Fring? 43 weeks 1 day ago

For whatever reason the video is upside down. I've found a fix however it involves editing the build.prop. I am thinking about making a backp of build.prop and just swapping it out as I use fring.

Quote:

Edit your /system/build.prop entities to be as follows:

ro.product.manufacturer = Samsung ro.product.model = Nexus S

That is the fix.

Now I was thinking now that the Nexus 4 is out if we could use its build.prop for even more playable apps.

I just flashed the 2.13 stock ROM, edited my build.prop to get around the linkify issue (ro.da1.enable=false, etc), however, the App associations menu is still listed in my settings menu, and my calendar app now points me to the browser instead of the calendar.
