I think the tutorial is great the way it is. Even made me realise I was still using x86 java on my 64-windows (it gave a java error first), now it's working fine!
EDIT: added the debug token to both my Q10 and PB, but I can't seem to get any more apps running on the Playbook as of now, too bad.
Now to find my favourite .apk's!
I finally got around to trying this method for Spotify, wonderfull, it even gives notifications in the Hub when sync'ing?!
Just one additional comment/question in general: if I already have the latest version working side-loaded, is there any benefit in replacing it with a debug-version?Last edited by MrGlenn; 06-22-13 at 07:47 AM.

Better stick to the original version. I Have observed files side loaded with debug tokens are consuming a lot of battery.I think the tutorial is great the way it is. Even made me realise I was still using x86 java on my 64-windows (it gave a java error first), now it's working fine!
I added my Playbook PIN to the debug token as well, not sure if it will function the same, but couldn't hurt to try.

That is not entirely true. The fact is that, xsacha's conversion method allows apps to have the permissions they require. So if an app requires permission to run in the background or run at start up, it grants it in the process of conversion. Naturally, when apps run in the background they tend to consume battery, so it really has nothing to do with the method per se. The method just does the job it is required of.

Was able to get this process working perfectly on my Z10. Went to do the same on my wifes Z10 but when I drag the csj files I get an error saying :Already registered with RDK. I have two new csj files for her phone and also created different folder for the Android pak just for her. Is there a way to get this working with multiple phones without using another PC?

Add her pin to the same debug token. The only problem is that I don't know how to do that.Was able to get this process working perfectly on my Z10.

The reason it's telling you that you have already registered is because, there are already some sets of certificates from a previous successful registration in the following directory on your PC. %APPDATA%\..\Local\Research In Motion. You need to navigate to that directory and move the author.p12 and the two barsigner files (those are your own certs, so keep them safe) to another folder. After moving them, now drag those csj files over registertoken.bat. Everything should go well from there on.Was able to get this process working perfectly on my Z10.

OK thanks, will this affect what I have already installed on my Z10? What will be the process when I need to update the debug token? Or would it be easier to delete everything on my phone and start from scratch using one debug token for both phones?The reason it's telling you that you have already registered is because, there are already some sets of certificates from a previous successful registration in the following directory on your PC. %APPDATA%\..\Local\Research In Motion.

I was getting a JAVA error stating that java.exe wasn't in the path. I wanted to share the instructions that helped me get past that error. I went here Possible Java SE Path Problems on Windows machines and followed the instructis at the bottom for Windows XP/2000/ME users. I have Windows 7 and afterward I was able to drag my keys onto register token and not get the java.exe path error. It ain't over yet because now I'm getting an error that my pin is wrong. I'm re-requesting my signing keys to fix this and will report back. I just wanted to share this as soon as I found out it got past the java error as it was much easier than other instructions I had read. My search path was in my system32 file. As it states below I had to add that path at the end of the "Path" line. I thought it was weird because in the "Path" line it mentioned something about bluetooth. I was skeptical but am glad I followed the instructions below to the letter.
Directions for XP/2000/ME users:
The procedure is as follows:
Click on the Start menu button.
Right click on "My Computer."
Click on Properties.
Click on the Advanced tab.
Click on the "Environment Variables" button near the bottom.
A dialog box comes up with two boxes: In the bottom box, look for "Path" and highlight that line. Then click on "Edit"
A small dialog box appears. In the second text field for the value, at the END of the line, add a semicolon then the path to where your java.exe file is. To determine this, you can use the Search program in Windows and search for "java.exe". It should then show you the full path of where it is. A hint, is that the path should end with "bin". so, at the end of the text field, add something like: ;C:\j2sdk1.4.2_03\bin
Click "OK."
Now, in the top box, click on the "New" button.
In the first field, enter "classpath" as one word. For the value in the second field, enter a single period.
Click "OK."
Click "OK."
Click "OK."Camelhmpz likes this.06-22-13 09:30 PMLike 1 -
