General :: Modding Android To Windows Desktop OS
Apr 15, 2013
I have Sony Xperia S running Android and i am wondering if it is possible to modify the boot loader to accept windows ISO from USB stick or from internal storage? or is it possible to somehow convert windows desktop ISO into a ROM somehow? the reason i am asking is because i like the unrestricted features of windows and the ability to run .EXE on my phone would be brilliant and being able to use skype for group calls which is not featured on android yet.

I would like to run .exe files for Windows (Desktop) PC on android.
I know most of you would say it's not possible, but I don't care if you say that. Everything is possible in this world. You just have to want it.
Most important reasons why it shouldn't work:
- EXEs are compiled for Windows
- CPU commands are different to the x86 processors
- WinAPI isn't available on Android
The application I want to run, will run on a couple of houndred of (Tablet) devices, a remote connection is not the way to go. The application is private, and not available on the market. There is no other application that could replace it.
Any VM for Android, or an other solution -> Performance doesn't matter!
For the beginning I want to try to run a small windows application, like notepad.exe on android devices. Besides of that there is also a way to run Win98 on Android. I havent tested it yet tho.

I'm looking for an actual Windows Remote Desktop app to connect directly to my job's server. I know one exists on iPad, but I haven't found the Android equivalent. I need something that supports all the options just like in the Windows Remote Desktop Connection's Advanced settings such as:
RD Gateway server settings
User Name
Server name
Domain/computer
What I am NOT looking for are apps that must have software (like a VNC server) installed on the host computer, e.g., Splashtop Remote. It must use standard Windows RDP.

I have a Windows 7 x64 home premium computer and an Android HTC Magic running CyanogenMod (ver 1.6).I am looking for an easy to use remote desktop application.Requirements:
- Does not have to be "fancy", i.e. I only want to control my computer from my phone with my mouse.
- Needs to be FREE
- Easy configuration. Up until now, whatever program I have tried seems to be blocked by something (most likely my Windows Firewall) and I have been unable to make it work.
- Step by step guide please, I'm a noob to this and I need help.

im trying to remotely access my pc. I have windows 7 ultra and have enabled remote sharing and disabled all firewalls. And turned off all antivirus/firewall programs. I have also opened port 3390. The good news is i can detect and begin to connect to my designated pc. Unfortunantly as soon as it conects it says logging off. And an error pops up saying, "connection reset".

i'm currently making a custom ROM for the Galaxy SL i9003 based on CM10 (its a HDPI device), and i'd like to know where the png of the statusbar is. Additionally I would also like to know where the png of the background is in the status bar drawer. I know it is either in framework-res.apk or systemui.apk but I don't have enough time to look through folders.

I just bought an android google tv from dealextreme. It has the Jellybean 4.2.2 and I was thinking if i add a custom rom or something it will make it run fast. There is issues on the 1080p streaming also for me.

so recently I have been trying to mod systemUI.apk with apk multi-tool. I decompiled it, made some very minor edits (some smali stuff), recompiled, put on my sdcard, moved it to system/app, renamed it to delete the "system_" part, changed permissions to rw-r--r and rebooted.
When i rebooted, my wallpaper was gone and was just black, I had to recent apps menu and no status bar. I checked settings -> app -> all and systemUI wasn't there
I have already tried wiping cache + dalvik cache and still my new systemUI.apk is not recognised.

I modded flappy bird on an ios device. I just replaced that bird with something better looking.. I've been trying for last 5 hours to get it working. I have downloaded flapping bird.apk and unpacked it. I opened assets folder and edited atlas.png in Photoshop just as I did on ios device. Then, I created zip file and copied it to my android device, I opened Zip Signer and found my zip file, and set the output file location. I installed it and opened it. It opened, but when I clicked play.

I wanted to mod a simple android app. Now i decompiled the apk with apktool. It worked fine!
But the only files I get after compiling are .xml files and .smali files...
So now, how i can edit the .smali files? Respectively can I mod apk apps by a other way?

Currently have a droid x phone (upgrading to Samsung GSIII shortly), but have never figured out how to dynamically sync bookmarks between it and my desktop. On the flip side, I have an ipad and through icloud, bookmarks are dynamically synched between the two - add bookmark in IE on PC and it appears on ipad, as well as the other way around.
I have found posts where people say on export/import, but that is a one time shot. Looking for something that is automated.

I have had DC 2.08.1 installed for about 2 weeks with no issues. I decided to go ahead and partition the SD to utilized apps2SD as I was having memory issues. That process, while not smooth, went through okay and the SD card is working with the partition and apps2SD. However, ever since that was completed, my Windows 7 box no longer recognizes the phone either as a phone or as a drive. My Linux laptop recognizes the drive without issue.
Any suggestions on how I can reintroduce my phone to the Windows box, at least as a drive?

I want to go 1 >> 2 >> 3 >> and stop. And ofcourse back 3>> 2 >> 1 and stop. This is how is my tablet working, and I want to "tell" phone to behave the same. Have you experiences with some setting / utility / system modification that can do it ?

In Gingerbread, I could click menu button at my home screen and choose "Edit" and all my desktop screen will minimize and I can add screen or remove screen (including all widgets and shortcuts) just by dragging the screen to the bottom where it says Remove.
I could not find any way to do this in ICS?

I uninstalled some system applications on my phone and I instantly regretted it and restored applications from back-ups using Wondershare MobileGo for Adroid. However, although it seems all the applications are working again, when I unlock the screen, I get a black screen - no desktop, no application list, but with the notification bar on top which works properly. The clock and calendar are displayed on the unlock screen and the alarm clock woke me up... I got some notifications on the black screen: process.android.acore, process.android.gapps and process.android.vending stopped working, process system stopped working.

OK, so I have an old phone (HTC Incredible S) and I want to load in a custom rom so that on start up only two apps are running and that's it. No desktop, no nothing else.
Fist of all I want to make sure this would even work. I imagine I would have control over the device via the ADB USB link but I would need to make sure that's ALWAYS available. I am an avid Linux user and cross compile on a monthly basis so I can learn the procedure easily enough.
I would be running a config app (for wifi, screen brightness, etc) that would also send back the accelerometer and compass data to my PC. The second app is an XRDP client so I can log into my desktop. This way I can have the power of my desktop on a portable device (around the house) but should increase battery life significantly. If this was to work then I can pick up a $200 used 10" tablet to make the setup more useful.
