Im needing to force an app onto this phone without rooting it is there anyway to do it at all?
First time post and I searched over and over couldn't find a similar thread or a site to help

What do you mean forcing it onto the phone?

It wont install on there at all and I found ways of forcing apps onto a phone through /system/apps but you have to be rooted to do it and its not my phone I'm needing to do this on so cant root it

It depends on the app

Maybe not, but there's a chance. He'll have to manually install it as a system app though...

Even if he doesn't get it to work, he can always just extract the wallpapers from the apk.

I'll write your next thread title for you.

I use rom manager all the time to fix permissions and reboot into recovery. You just have to make sure you have busybox installed. Don't use it for much else.

Some of you may know that today Time Warner Cable enabled the capabilities of Android 4.0 devices to watch live through this app like Apple... Only issue, App says "Does not support rooted device" really!!! WTF!!! Thoughts??? Work around?

Live TV no. Just digital cable and road runner internet. As for the Dvr recording you just need a Dvr converter and digital cable.

There is someone over in the Droid section of forums, I believe, that is hacking the app itself. They're having luck...

XDA rules prohibit warez and claiming copyright to a work not yours. This is neither.
But redistribution of software depends on the source of the material and its terms & conditions of fair use and/or license. It is likely that the demo apk is Verizon exclusive and not on the Play Store because of that. Just because something is free does not waive rights to copyright and control over distribution methods.
That said, it's free. This is a Rezound forum. Verizon won't care if it is posted here. The game developer can only profit if more people try the demo.
Now stop being silly and go play a real game like Pokémon or something.
It is probably in the stock rooted GB roms that are floating around. (Not debloated, just stock rooted)

So much data spelunking for one apk lol, but it would be inside that zip file under system/app/ or something.

Thanx for the link bro, but it won't load in my browser. I'll just download ants stock Rom and search through that for it. I don't think it's debloated..

your stuck with one image at a time? or this rotates through them randomly?
I was looking for a better wallpap app to work on different roms, and came across this gem!
For some reason I'm not able to switch roms with this app.
And this is unneeded due to my brazzers subscription.
Sent from my HTC_Amaze_4G using xda app-developers app
The app is based on the phones crop standards so whenever you switch roms you can crop one picture without having to go through an app based crop. Also save features on this app work perfectly along with fast load times. You cannot switch roms with this app if that is what you'r saying.

Your going to need the 11.x apk of flash now on JB. I believe flash is no longer in the play store. Then you will need a browser that has flash capabilities and turn them on. If you use dolphin it will need a simple edit to get it working

Flash is dropping Android support and Android is moving on. Simple as that. Hopefully html5 catches on (and the Web catches up) pretty quick here
In the mean time I just use the xScope browser found in our Apps/themes section for flash support.
Nope. Its actually Apple suing, claiming Flash violates patents they have on everything in the dictionary that starts with the "Fl" sound. Also being sued are Florida, and scientoligist Tom Cruise. (His middle name is Floyd)
