I have a need to have two versions of one app on my phone.
Is it possible to edit the apk to allow me to have two copies of the same app which would function as two separate apps? The app in question is Google Hangouts

I just rooted my moto droid. Now I am wondering if it is possible to drop 1.5 or other versions of the OS on the phone and if so how? If anyone could explain how I do this or link some forums that explain this. Or is there maybe a dual boot option b/c I don't want to always us 1.5 only for testing purposes.
View 4 Replies View RelatedOur team developed a fairly robust multi-touch implementation for PhoneMyPC that has worked since Android 1.0. Our code still uses it on pre- 2.0 phones, but of course we use the 2.0 multi-touch API on the Droid.I've been stunned that no other apps (that I know of) have supported multi-touch (in pre- 2.0 Android), and I'm curious if the community at large might like our implementation. We've been considering publishing the technique on our website. Although pre- 2.0 Android devices will dwindle now, they still represent a vast majority of current devices. If you're curious how well it works, download PhoneMyPC to your pre- 2.0 phone and give it a try. It's usable in the *Snapshot*, *View Live*, and *Interact Live* features.

I have : Firmware : 1.5 (2.0 is out right :S?)
And build : 2.73.405.5
Are there any updates ?
Is there a website I can check to see what the latest versions should be when I go to About Phone > Software Information, assuming stock everything and only official OTA updates? I just want to see if I'm current on everything, although I think I am since my phone came with Froyo.

Right now I have the beta build installed and I tried editing the AndroidManifest.xml with apktool. It rebuilt the edited version but still asked to replace the existing one!

Or one root file for each android version like 2.3.6 or 4.3?
ive a i9300 wich i has no problems at all to instal the new bbm . but as far as i tried to manually instal the apk to some 2.3.6 phones from friends they all show "a problem has ocurred" . and obiously the installation won't proceed.
So i was wondering if there is some kind of hacking to make the apk work on devices with android version below 4.0
I want to know how to install two versions of one same application at the same time.
As a matter of fact, I want to install Opera Mini 4.2 China Version and Opera Mini 4.2 Internaional Version at the time. But...Since Opera Mini 5 makes it difficult to describe the question, here takes HelloWorld.apk as an example.
Well, there are two versions of the application "HelloWorld": 1.0 and 1.1. (This is just an example)
I have installed HelloWorld 1.0 on my phone, and when I try to install HelloWorld 1.1, the 1.0 version will be replaced. But...I want to have both of them installed on my phone. That is to say, there will be two "HelloWorld" icons in the app drawer.
I use APKTool to extract the com.hello.world.apk into some "text" files, including an AndroidManifest.xml and a lot of *.smali files. In the AndroidManifest.xml, I saw this:
<manifest package="com.hello.world" versionCode="100" versionName="1.0">
I changed the value "com.hello.world" to "com.goodbye.world". Then I re-build the apk file and transferred it to my phone.
I installed the modified package, it was successfully installed and I see two "HelloWorld" icons in my app drawer!
I try to launch the HelloWorld 1.0, it succeeds.
I try to launch the HelloWorld 1.1, it FCs immediately.
Well, this is my situation. How can I make both of them launch-able in my phone? Is it possible? What should I modify apart from "package" filed in AndroidManifest.xml?
I have a phone running Android 2.3.4. I also just purchased a tablet which will be running Android 4.0.
Will I be able to use the same google account on both of these or should I set up a new one for the tablet?
I plan to install several apps on the tablet which are too advanced to run on the lower version of Android.
So Google recently introduced (secretly) TRIM support for 4.3. My question is...is there anyway to port this to 4.1+? Are there any alternative apps in Google Play?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI recently had the misfortune of downloading the latest OTA update from samsung to 4.3.3. Made my phone very laggy and not a great improvement. Years back I rooted and flashed my HTC Wildfire, which wasnt a big deal as the phone was relatively cheap.
Anyway to get to the point. I flashed with 4.2.2 Cyanogen Mod onto my Galaxy S4 and had backed up my stock using Clockwork Mod. I have been able to use Titanium backup pro to restore pretty much everything except my contacts. I think the issue is with my old contacts being stored in a newer version of Android. Is there anyway around this as I would really like to get my contacts back.
I had tried flashing with a stock ROM but the latest one I can get from sammobile is 4.2.2
Here is the apk from CM7: nexus.neural.cm7.apk
It crashes in ICS.
I linked the apk so how to mod this to work on ICS. Don't want the version available in market/play because only the CM7 version has Droid blue background and I really like that.
I would like to port an app from a higher Android version to Galaxy Y. e.g.-Port the JB 4.2 Keyboard or The 4.2 Play Music app..But, how can I do it? I mean, is there any tutorial available or at-least something which would enable me get going? I've seen Devs porting such apps, but I want to know how do they do it..
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm contemplating the idea of developing an application for the android. I have several years of experience developing web applications with Java and so figured it shouldn't be too hard to pickup a book and learn how to do it for the android platform. So far so good; that's why I love Java.
My question is in regards to how does the android development community go about testing their applications of the various android version and phones? I think I'm more concerned about the android version rather than the phones. I'm planning on getting the Sprint Evo 4G LTE coming out on Friday, so I'm obviously going to be able to develop and test for Android 4 and HTC Sense 4 (though I don't think that is as important right? Development is usually against the OS and not the UI manager, right?). But how would I go about testing against Gingerbread, Froyo, etc.? Do you guys keep a previous old phone (like my old HTC Evo 4G) and flash diferent roms in order to test the app against previous versions of android? Are there other solutions? If it's using an old phone, does this work off-network/service? I guess you could just dump the apk on the sd card and install as third party app and test it out. As long as the app doing require phone services or mobile data network (internet) you'd be fine if you have wifi access right?

View 2 Replies View RelatedThe problem is maintaining apps that were NOT installed from the Market, but from .apk files scattered in various directories on the SD card. What I need is a tool that combines the functionality of an app manager like Easy Installer together with details of all currently-installed apps: In a single big list sorted by app name, I'd like to see the installed version (if any), plus every available .apk file and the version it contains. That would make it SO much easier to know if I need to update installed apps with a newer version, and to delete multiple .apk files of outdated versions.
I've seen lots of apps (including the Apps menu built into Android Settings) to view the installed apps and their version info -- and also lots of apps to scan the whole SD card for .apk files and display the actual app info (name, version, etc.) vs. just the filenames. What's missing is an easy way to compare all these.
I've noticed that versions after Skype v4.0 have been having this issue where, when minimized or screen turned off, the app essentially disconnects. I've been doing testing with another account on the pc which I would use to write to my Skype on the phone. Works fine until I leave the app itself. It is still running, I've made 100% sure of that. When writing myself it first shows me as online but quickly updates to "offline" and message is "pending", i.e. not delivered before I open the app again.
How about battery life comparison between the older and newer versions? It's the main reason I wanna use the newer versions because allegedly the battery has been improved alot since 4,7 but sadly, in these versions, I have this problem.
Now that Flash Player is no longer being updated for older versions of Android and is completely incompatible with ICS+, couldn't browser makers simply build Flash Player into their browsers, similar to the way it was built into SkyFire for Windows Mobile a few years ago? Couldn't it be made available as an addon for Dolphin HD?

View 8 Replies View RelatedI have two contacts in there currently and want to get rid of them and start over. Can't figure out any way to do it. I even went into 'manage applications' and found the widget and cleared the cache and data and the dang thing still shows the same two contacts that I want to get rid of. This widget is pretty useless. Can't put in multiple instances of the same contact (like one for cell and one for home), yet you also can't seem to just set it to take you to their contact info when you click on a person - you have to choose a default.

Is it possible to edit some of this information?
Couldn't find .set() functions on Android.com documentation but I've found the GSMPhone.java source code which includes functions like .setNumber1Number() (used to set/edit the number?).
I basically want to know if it's possible to edit the phone number located on Sim card (Settings->About->Status->My Phone Number).
Appreciate any answer, even a simple "NO", if it's indeed impossible.
I own a Droid, and consider myself fairly savvy in the Android world, however my wife recently got the Ally and is having a problem editing her contacts. So when she initiqally booted up the phone it walked her through logging into google and facebook, etc, and it imported all those contacts into the phone, however, she wants to add in their phone numbers now, but its not letting her. We click on the menu button, click eedit contact, but then there is no way to edit or add phone numbers.
