I bought an android 2.3.6 phone which no one has tried to root( it seems). So I was wondering if I could root it by creating an update.zip file containing the su binary and the superuser apk and then installing it in the recovery mode. Will this work? I have failed with gingerbreak, unlockroot and z4root.

View 1 Replies View Relatedso I'm trying to write in "Update-Binary" in a Zip File .
In The Zip The Update-Binary is Located : META-INF < COM < GOOGLE < ANDROID < (Here)
I'm trying to write and edit some things into the file , which I have tried with NotePad++ and Notepad and WordPad . None will work ... When I go to Flash I have a Error right away since The Update binary is the system to start the Flash it won't work .
I have created a Black and Pink Glass theme for Go launcher that installs and loads fine. When I upload the theme to the android market and then its downloaded from the market and installed it installs as a .zip file instead of an .apk file. I have several other themes that are working fine. I have tried rebuilding it from scratch and the issue is still there. I have attached the android manifest.xml for reference.
View 1 Replies View RelatedSeveral apps on android market is utilizing some kind of binary and root to call android system methods which normally require permissions only granted to system apps (/system/app).
I am wondering if it is possible to call java methods with C++ binaries using JNI. How the apps are doing this? An example is the launcher Apex launcher, which uses root to allow users to add widgets with the new widgets screen on ICS.
I have a LG L45C and I am trying to root it and get Superuser to run, but without any luck after 2 days. I am very new to adroids and cannot figure out how to do it. It all started with Titanum Backup and the message "ROOM is not rooted" and "attempted was made using su command".

View 3 Replies View RelatedWhen going from 3.02 to 4.04 on the Spectrum, the phone pulls an updated file. The update file is this: (remove the spaces in the link. I don't have a high enough thread count to post links yet)
[URL]
The file itself can be opened with WinRAR, but shows that it was signed by SignAPK.
My question is this, What should I theoretically need to do in order to inject root into this so that when the update runs on the phone, it adds SU to the system directory with the correct permission settings?
Imagine a scenario where you have just system access on android , and you want to continually have it, so you use the su binary, with the correct permission and the setuid flag on, and the owner being system, you do:
Code:
chown 1000:1000 su2
chown 06755 su2
you have the ability to change the owner to system as you do when rooting, and you also set the appropriate permission as you do when rooting,
06775 being the permission code to all have execution permission, and the setuid flag on.
But when dealing with system permission that doesn't work. it only works with root.
I noticed every flashable zip has one. If i merge to flashable zips what do I do with the update-binary? Is it important?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI've tried looking around google, xda search tool, have read all pages (3 of them) in Xposed wiki. I've been trying to cheat in a game called Galaxy On Fire 2 HD (I have purchased it), I've found some tutorials how to do that on iOS by modifying some binary files (assetsdatainships.bin and items.bin), on android those files are in game apk, and I cannot modify them without breaking signature.
I found Xposed framework and I think it could be perfect for my purposes. Is there an easy way to replace those asset files by my own? I have very little programming skills though, but I'll try. I've found a short example in wiki, but I don't understand it. I've read wiki tutorial 2 times but still have only vague idea how all this works.
I Want To Make Zips By Phone But Can't Find A Way To Update Binary....
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a rooted galaxy S2 on stock with the SuperSU application. I updated the SuperSU application today and when I opened it, it advised me to update the binary. I selected the option to update the binary via CWM (as that's my recovery tool). My phone then tried to reboot but is now stuck on the splash screen, I have access to ODIN mode which currently says CUSTOM BINARY DOWNLOAD: Yes (1 counts) but no access to CWM.
I have a feeling I would need to flash the kernel but am not really sure what the best way to fix this is. If possible I would like to keep all my data intact.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to unbundle a binary file (sound1.ogg) and store it on the sdcard.So it starts out as a raw resource (R.raw.sound1) and should end up as a copy named /sdcard/ mydir/sound1.ogg I wrote a method called something like copyResourceToFile() and did a copy via file descriptors / streams. But the target file just isn't right.If I do a buffered read, the target file ends up being WAY bigger - like 10x bigger.If I just do a byte-by-byte read for the size of the original file, the target file is the right size but is not the same file. Is there a simpler (well, correct/working) way to do this thing?

View 1 Replies View RelatedIn my Android app I want to have an input field with autocomplete. The number of items will be about 300000. The best solution seems to be to put the items into a file (on sdcard), one item per line, each line would have the same number of characters so that I can seek to specific line number. If the user enters something in the text field, I would binary search (via RandomAccessFile) the file and show suggestions.I want the autocomplete to be super fast (ideally under 100ms but I guess it's impossible), what optimizations I can do?
Update 1:
I will convert the users input to lowercase english characters (a-z) with spaces. So 'A/b' would be converted to 'a b' and then searched.
Uodate 2:
I now realized I need additional thing - to search for word-starting substrings.

I accidentally deleted an android file through root, now my phone doesn't boot properly. All i get is "process com.android .setup wizard has stopped" and stays i idle in the black screen. Even i tried reseting the phone in recovery mode..
I have a android tablet and I have tried rooting it and I get things like "read only file system" and I looked into it and my /system is read only.. Rooting is putting .su in the xbin or bin inside of the /system. But my /system is read only so i can't root my tablet?
