Android :: Extracting Android .apk And Reading Contents Of XML File In Layout

Oct 6, 2010

I am trying to reverse engineer an existing android app and understand how a particular UI is constructed. I've found that I can rename the apk to zip and view some of the compiled source. The res/layout directory is populated with all the xml files that define the UI, but while they do have the xml extension, they are not in XML format. Is there anyway to convert these files back to text based markup?

Android :: Getting Linear Layout To Wrap Contents

Mar 24, 2010

I've got a horizontal Linear Layout that contains a variable number of child Linear Layouts. Right now, the children will just run off the screen if there are too many of them. How would I make the parent layout wrap the children on multiple lines? If this is not possible, should I be using a different layout as the parent?

Android :: Widget Layout - Small Size Of Contents?

Sep 9, 2010

I am trying to make a widget to show on the home screen(s). My problem is lets say I set my icon to 30x30 when I load the widget on the screen the Icon is the correct size but the layout itself takes up a lot more space than what is actually needed. This means that I can't really place my widget next to other icons on the screen. Its like the bounding box is 3 times bigger than the content that fills it.

Here is my XML
[CODE]

I have tried wrap_content and other width/height settings but nothing seems to reduce the "Box" around my widget content. I clicked on my ATK widget and started to drag it around on my HTC Aria and it shows the bounding box around the widget and that one is the same size of the content inside same with all the other widgets on my screens.

Is there an app that can do this? I am trying to extract petes latest Rom from a rar file he posted but can't extract on my phone and don't have access to a pc right now. What gives? Why would he post in a format that cannot be extracted on the phone itself? I have a hard time believing this can't be done.

I have created a app that displays all the content from res/raw folder. I need that when I click on .doc file it should open and I can view its content. I have ThinkFree.
Enter code here:
public class FileList extends ListActivity {
public static final Field[] fields = R.raw.class.getFields();
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setListAdapter(new ArrayAdapter<Field>(this, R.layout.row, R.id.weekofday, fields));
} @Override
protected void onListItemClick(ListView l, View v, int position, long id) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
//super.onListItemClick(l, v, position, id);
String selection = l.getItemAtPosition(position).toString();
Toast.makeText(this, selection, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
Intent i = new Intent();
i.setAction(android.content.Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
startActivity(i);
} }
