General :: How To Properly Edit System APK
Oct 27, 2011
I have both a Galaxy Tab from Verizon and Sprint with stock roms. I want to take the Settings.Apk and just modify out the Wireless AP launcher activity from AndroidManifest.xml..So I decompile the APK, remove the offending XML section and recompile. Sign it and get this
Code:
I/PackageManager( 120): /system/app/Settings.apk changed; collecting certs
W/PackageManager( 120): Signature mismatch for shared user : SharedUserSetting{40554d08 android.uid.system/1000}
E/PackageManager( 120): Package com.android.settings has no signatures that match those in shared user android.uid.system; ignoring!
Maybe I did the signing wrong. Okay, so I take the Settings.Apk from AOSP Gingerbreak (from the SDK Emulator) and plug it in.
I try an unsigned apk and I get another issue about not being signed. I research and I read that I have to resign all APKs... So I do. I take all /system/ app/ *.apk with the matching certificate and resign them. I also take /system/framework/framework-res.apk and /system/framework/twframework-res.apk
Code:
W/PackageManager( 120): Library not found: /system/framework/sec_feature.jar
D/PackageManager( 120): Scanning app dir /system/framework
D/PackageManager( 120): This is not system dir
[code]....

I'm having a problem with ES file explorer. After several days I managed to root my HUawei U8800 Ideos X5 (Android 2.3.5) and obviously one of the next steps is installing CWMR. Unfortunately I'm failing here too. I tried to copy the recovery.img to the .cust_backup/image, but it keeps to say copy failed. Root access was given and I checked all four boxes in root settings. Someone in a german forum told me to update the binarys in SU, which failed too (it says sth like copy su to /system -> failed!). I'm not even sure ES FE would work if the binarys would be current.
I already tried the app Mount /system (rw / ro). It didn't work with this too.

the flashable zips usually replace some system files. I want to create an apk that can do exactly what those zips do, without booting into recovery.

More specifically I want to edit the Settings.apk and add more options. I'm unsure what the best approach to this is. I know how to convert the classes.dex to a .jar, but this doesn't seem like the way to go about accomplishing anything. At any rate, I'm really looking for some insight into this and advanced editing such as this. Someone knows how to, care to share?

I have a GS2 skyrocket running CM10.1 and i've read that task managers are rather obsolete now. However I have noticed that when I let my phone run standard app process limit the battery life is around 30% worse than when I set the app limit to 4 processes in the developer settings. Now that I have CM10.1 and it doesn't have developer options, i'm wondering what I can do to limit my processes down to conserve battery?

I have the Optimus 2X, which seems to struggle playing flash videos that are higher than 480p, yet the Motorola Atrix which also uses the Tegra 2 SoC manages to play 720p flash videos smoothly.
Could this be caused by LG not optimizing the software properly? Would a custom ROM possibly fix this problem?

I have a Samsung Galaxy S2 and recently bought a no-name 64 GB SDXC card to replace my 32 GB, but I can't get it working properly.
I can transfer files to the card both via a micro SD adapter and the USB contact plugged to the computer. The SGS2 detects it, but the folders and files in them are corrupted by the phone. After some GBs, all folders are empty and folder names format like this:
"Dave Gahan" > "AVEGA~1" (spaces in original folder name)
"Depeche Mode" > "EPECH~1" (spaces in original folder name)
"Delerium" > "ELERIUM"[code].....
Here's a screenshot from X-plore:
If I put the SDXC back in the computer, the folders are like in the phone (corrupted).I've never had this issue with the 32 GB card and right now it's working perfectly having the exact same files as the 64 GB on it.I'm running stock ROM with Speedmod kernel 4.1.2. The 64 GB is formatted to FAT32 with 32 kb cluster size and there are no files over 4 GB.
Is there a way to solve this or is my 64 GB SDXC broken?

I've already rooted my Nexus 7 2012 using Wugfresh's Nexus Root Toolkit, I've also already granted access to a lot of root needed apps through SuperSu, I also have busybox installed. For some reason I just installed Gamecih version 3.00. Life. The app still says error need root even after I granted access to it through the supersu root permission prompt.

My device is Celkon A89. I tried it rooting with Super One Click. It detects my device nicely. But after rooting, root filesystem is only readable. Cannot write anything. Not able to update su binary also. No root permission for apps like Titanium backup pro.
I would like to install CWM Recovery also.

My phone's video isn't working properly, no matter which player I use. It was working fine, and at first, asking which player I would like to use for the playback. That has since stopped. The video seems to take longer to load and will play for around ten seconds, then stop for a while, then play for another few seconds.Should I do a default reset?

I have a problem with google+ Android app, recently, today I stop from receiving notifications on my phone not even on the status bar and I have the config for example this community to receive notifications. The only way I could recieve them and others I've configured is to enter the app and the other strange thing is that I doesn't even sound while I have configured that too. I've reinstalled and installed the app, wipe cache and dalvik, wipe the app data and config again with no results, it's too rare. y Google App version is 4.2.4.58179886 and i have activated the sync of Google+ on the account. For further information i receive notifications with sound for people who circle me and mention me but not communities or circles i have.
P.S.: For Google+ web notifications are working as they do. I have a Samsung Galaxy S2 with Jelly Bean 4.1.2. Don't know if it has to be with other Google services like Google Play Services, Google Framework or other.

I was removing stock apps from my /system/app folder, and deleted Launcher2.apk by mistake. The phone couldn't boot properly, so I managed to get the apk from the emulator and install it using adb booting the phone on recovery mode.
Now, my problem is, that Launcher only shows shorcuts to the apps from my /system/app folder. Every apk I put or install on /data/app doesn't apear on the apps view. So there is no way to launch any app unles I manualy move it to system.
I think launcher must read a config file to get the installed apps, and it's failing for some reason. What do you think?

I am using XOLO Q3000, having Jelly Bean (4.2.1) on it. My Dialer is not working as it use to be in my XOLO Q800 (Jelly Bean 4.1). Dialer have following issues:Dialer doesn't show alphabetic keypad i.e. can't swipe to qwerty keypad Dialer doesn't act smartly i.e. when we type in the numbers it doesn't bring the relevant matches If saved number is come in different format then dialer doesn't show contact details.
e.g. - Suppose I have saved ABCD contact with 1234567890 number. If incoming number come as an 01234567890 then respective contact name is not shown on dialer screen. Same issue persist while dialing the number.

I've tried Unified Remote and WinApp off the market, both highly rated, both practically useless for me, if for example you run a setup program the input just stops working so you have to plug a mouse in to complete which completely renders the app pointless to me. That was just an example, all of the ones I've tried have been so flakey as to be frustrating.
Are there any apps that can act as keyboard and mouse for a remote windows system that actually work 100% of the time?

i can edit an existing rom for the Samsung Infuse 4g such as the stock rom and replace stock apps. I want to just edit some of the system/apps like the stock launcher, stock messaging app, etc and replace them with different ones that i already have downloaded. I don't want to edit any of the really deep/internal stuff just the stock applications that are loaded on the phone.

BUT .. if the app is named ( Camera ) .. you cant install it .. cuz there is already an app with that name ..

The DroidExplorer shell gives "adb: permission denied" cannot access properly into Coby Kyros MID7125 tablet.
I cannot see my root contents and folders with shell. I have rooted my MID7125 and it has ClockWork recovery too. I have made a backup successfully. I can connect to it with my PC using DroidExplorer. I go into shell and get my $ prompt. I enter adb devices and get the following: "adb: permission denied" Is there a password? If so, what is it and how do I enter it to access properly. How can I see the folders?
I used this method to root. [URL]
I originally used the SuperOneClick method and had the same outcome.
I followed this to get my PC ready for DroidExplorer. Howto: Install the Android SDK - CyanogenMod Wiki

So my phone (Motorola triumph) recently started having charging issues. When I plug it in I usually have to wiggle it a bit for it to charge...then if I just leave it for a bit and don't touch it I will come back like 15min later and it won't be charging.
Tried multiple chargers and they have the same problem.

I've been using MIUI for a long time now but I wanna use regular Android now and I've like 7K SMS'es that I wanna bring with me. I've tried a whole bunch of SMS backup tools but they all seems to import the messages in a wrong order even though the dates are right. Extracting the messages from a Nandroid doesn't work because MIUI uses a different sms database format or something.
