General :: Where To Place Apps In Custom Rom
Nov 8, 2012
I am trying to make/edit my first custom rom. As base i am using the Oxygen rom. This rom has all his apps stored in system/app. I inserted an launcher(hololauncher), keyboard(custom htcime) and gallery(quickpick) apk in this folder, but after the rom is flashed these apps are causing fc's and the gallery app isnt even flashed.
I know that not every apk can be placed in the system/app folder, but how can i ensure that these apps will install correctly during flashing.

I have a custom ViewGroup. The idea is to be able to place controls at absolute positions and then have the ViewGroup scale those controls based on the difference in the screen dimensions with respect to the original design dimensions. I am using the code below. In response to the 'onMeasure' message, I am storing the width and height of the view. Then on the 'onLayout' message I am computing new dimensions for the child controls and adjusting their sizes proportionally. This all works to some degree. However for certain controls (e.g. button controls), the control resizes, but the text inside does not remain centered within the control. I am thinking that there is some other call I need to make to update the child controls after I change their size.

My family has got three android phones, an HTC Hero, a Samsung Galaxy, and a T-Mobile Pulse, all are running android 1.5 with the latest manufacturer firmware. On the T-Mobile Pulse, when searching for a couple of apps (ones that I have installed on the other two devices), I get returned 'no matches'. For example, if I search for 'BrightAI', which is a developer who has around 8 apps on the market, I get no matches. If I search for individual apps, I get 'no matches'. Searching for the same on either the Hero or Galaxy returns the expected results. Does anyone have any ideas why certain apps are accessible on one device, but not the other?

I've recently got myself a samsung galaxy s4. Naturally, the first thing I did was root it and put a custom ROM on it. However, there are a few stock features that I would like back (Read: A FEW), such as the one that tracks your eyes so the screen doesn't rotate when you're lying down.
Is there any way (like a selective app pack, or apks) to get some of the stock features back on my custom ROM? I'm running the latest slimbean.

Just got my droid and noticed after app download that when u move the app to another screen. the original remains on the grey screen it was on before. Should it? I though by moving it onto a panel of lets say music and media only that it would move away from it's original location. I prefer to see it on only one panel. Any ideas?

I've just downloaded an icon pack and used KKlauncher to install the theme.
Most of my apps in the drawer become the same style as the icon pack but still some of the apps remained unchanged. e.g. Whatsapp+, custom camera apps.
Is it possible to apply the icon pack to the rest of the apps?

They are a company that has apps to place their software on smartphones to make them into rangefinders. They have an app for the original Moto Droid. If it works on that one would it work on the X?

I'm a bit into customizing my home screens to make it look like the ones on mycolorscreen.com and in those UCCW threads.
But there is one thing thats bugging me, and that is the use of app icons on the home screen. I dont like it, its too messy and too iOS'ish.
Some are replacing the app icons with other custom icons, or removes them completely, but i rarely see what i've been trying to do; to make custom icons that open a meny of apps (in one genre..)
Like one icon for music apps, and one for travel apps etc.
I have tried to fix this using tasker widgets, like this:
and when i click on the music icon, which is a tasker widget, it opens a tasker scene with a meny of 4 music apps:
This works pretty good, but i would like the tasker widget icons to be just icons, no subtext under the icon. There is no way in tasker to do this i think, i've tried to make a task with no name but it is simply not allowed.
I've also tried to make a uccw widget, but hotspots in uccw can open apps and shortcut, not a many of apps..
i know that i can make the launcher remove text under icons, but this doen not apply to my tasker widgets.

I have taken over a Samsung Galaxy Y GT-S5360 from a friend and the on board Ram is insufficient. I have searched and see that it is possible to increase the Ram by using part of the SD card. Apparently, the phone needs to be rooted first.
So I downloaded this universal root piece of software, but it sits in the download folder on the SD card....sd/download...
how do I move the it so that it sits directly on the sd/ rather than on the sd/download folder.

I am creating an application that checks the installation of a package and then launches the market-place with its id.
When I try to launch market place with id of an application say com.mybrowser.android by throwing an intent android.intent.action.VIEW with url: market://details?id=com.mybrowser.android, the market place application does launches but crashes after launch.
Note: the application com.mybrowser.android doesn't exists in the market-place.
MyApplication is my application.
CODE:..........
However, when I try to launch the market place for a package that exists in the market place say com.opera.mini.android, everything works. Log for this case:
CODE:..................

how rooting works. I read that stock recovery doesn't let us flash packages not signed by the manufacturer, and that's the reason for custom recoveries (they don't check). So my question is how do we get recovery to flash the root package in the first place? Or is it the fact that I have a Samsung with an unlocked boot loader?

I have been desperately attempting to keep Google Maps from writing down every place I go!
I have checked all the "don't share my location" type boxes. This is deeper than that.
Check these screen shots.
Any way to STOP google maps from running, unless I specifically open the app myself?

I just went through the process of compiling a custom ROM and they used a stock kernel. I would like to incorporate a different kernel when I compile and instead of the stock. I know I could compile them separately and have them flash together but I want one zip to flash. Just would like to go through the process to learn.
what I have to do when compiling?'

I'm using Bearsfan85's custom ROM, but have lost the voice dialer app that was in the Samsung's touch wiz ROM. As this is helpful to avoid car accidents while on the road, I was hoping to get it back. I have the .apk file but ASTRO file manager won't let me install it. I've tried to adb push it but I get a "read-only file error". For whatever reason, the commands "adb remount" or "adb shell sysrw" aren't being recognized, which I think is what I need to do to adb push the voice dialer back onto my phone.Unless of course, the Samsung apps just aren't compatible anymore.

Almost every time I install a custom Rom, the Marketplace won't show all of the apps. The missing apps aren't always paid apps though, just certain ones (both free and paid). The only solution I've found is to go back to the stock Rom.. does anybody have any ideas/suggestions? I've tried searching (this forum and Google) but didn't really find any answers.
