Hi guys, i'm using APK Manager and i was able to change the xml without having any trouble by decompressing the apk. I'm wondering what i need to do in order to resign the APK. I have already tried to compress the apk and then sign it, but streight away after I installed the apk i got in boot looping.

The file i'm talking about is the framework-res.apk

Any suggestion? :confused:

Thanks in advance.

Edit/

Solved.

Basically i was trying to sign framework-res.apk, instead i have found the solution in this forum that actually worked fine for me:

1. Place your original "framework-res.apk" into "\place-apk-here-for-modding\" folder
2. Run "script.bat"
3. Set Project (22) and choose the "framework-res.apk" (1)
4. Decompile (9)
5. Place or overwrite new Xmls and PNGs in "\projects\framework-res.apk\res\drawable or drawable-hdpi"
5. Recompile (11)
6. Answer "Yes" when it asks wheter it is system file
7. Answer "Yes" when it asks "would you like to copy over any additional files...?"
8. Script is paused => (don't press a key)
9. Go to the "keep" folder (it's in the same folder than "script.bat")
10. In this "Keep" Folder,
- delete "resources.arsc" file
- delete originals "stat_sys_battery.xml" and "stat_sys_battery_charge.xml" from the "keep\res\drawable" folder
- delete all originals PNGs that were meant to be edited
11. Go back to "script.bat" and press a key to let him finish the job
12. Your new "framework-res.apk" has been created in the "\place-apk-here-for-modding\" folder. It's called "unsignedframework-res.apk".. but he's not working yet.
13. Unzip all the content of the "unsignedframework-res.apk". You should have 5 objects (3 folders, 2 files).
14. Zip these files with Winrar/Winzip (whatever) but you must choose "No compression" method to zip it.
15. Rename this zip into "framework-res.apk".
15. Put it into an update.zip and it should be OK to flash trough the recovery mode.

Thanks anyway!

hi guys i am new with this tablet. i bought a pov mobii here in argentina and i have to say that it is a fantastic tablet for the price but i have a question... what happens to gameloft games?? or need for speed? i couldn't play anyone. i installed it and download all the data for the games but then the game appears all the shaders in white... could it be the stock rom?? others games like minisquadron or angry birds work great, but i want to play splinter cell or another gameloft game. i think something happens within the tegra chipset and gameloft games...

Brother in Arms 2 HD does work on my PoV Mobii Tegra (Brothers_In_Arms_2__Global_Front_HD_LG_P990_Optimus_2x_Star_Dop_android.apk), but ONLY if I've the 3G dongle inserted with the SIM to which the Gamelof SMS (with the download link) was sent. Without the dongle BIA2 complains after some time about not being a legal copy and refuses to start. Games from the Android Market are a lot easier to install.

Hey guys, just wondering what programs for a PIN lock have worked best for you. The basic WinMo one is pretty bleak and can lag a bit. Any that look better and don't lag too much?
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] coder12:
I used to use S2U2, but I really disliked a lot of features.

I'll be honest, I use the WM native lockscreen with the Android skin on it. It looks really nice and works very smoothly, so I'm not sure why you'd have lag, I see none.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] slapshot30:
Interesting... I've experienced it a few times on both energy and deepshining. For instance, I will pull down on the panel, and and it won't go with my finger, then after a second or two (sometimes longer) it will show the keypad to enter my lock.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] wateverweber:
If you are willing to pay you can always try pocketshield

I tried the 10 day trial version and fell in love with it, wish i just had sum cash to spare

I however do not use pin lock feature and am not 100% sure it has one, but from all the features i saw i doubt it wouldnt

I would highly recommend using pocketshield or at least trying the trial version :)
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Themes and Apps] slapshot30:
Thanks, that looks pretty sweet! The site says it does have a PIN so I will try out the free trial. If all goes well then I will definitely pay for it.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] optmsprim2:
Hey guys. So I went ahead and dropped my phone in the bathroom. The battery cover popped off and the battery shot out. Anyways, after putting that back in and turning the phone on the screen won't turn on. The phone does actually start up as my boot sound plays and all the capacitive buttons light up. Also the touchscreen still works as I can "feel" my way around and still call make calls using the launcherpro swipe shortcuts I set up and can answer calls and such. So really the only thing is that the screen never displays anything.

Anyways I don't have TEP (look how smart I am!) and am going to take it into the sprint store that does repairs around here tomorrow morning to see what can be done. What I'm asking is for thoughts on what happened and advice if my device is not fixable by sprint. Do you think that the LCD is busted or did I just jiggle something loose inside? I saw a teardown video of the phone but they stopped before getting to the screen so I don't know what it is like in there. Also should I odin it back to stock before taking it in?

Lastly if all that fails does anybody have thoughts on those "mail it to us and we'll fix your phone" sites? I've seen it range from $120-$190 to fix a screen for the epic which I would be willing to pay if these places are for real.

Thanks for listening to my problems!
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ecooce:
The only thing I can say is $190 is not worth it,you can buy one on ebay (where I bought my last 3 phones) for around $150 now I'm sure,and you can still keep yours to make phone calls,and you will have all those extras for parts,battery,what ever...
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] epic4GEE:
I'd try to odin first, but did you try booting into cwm? If the screen works on there, then it may just be a corruption attack of sorts.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] optmsprim2:
Took it into a sprint store this morning, 1 hour and $35 later had it up and running with a new lcd. Tech said that when he tested the LCD on its own it worked fine, but not when he put it back together. He just replaced it with a different one and I was on my way, no questions asked.

I had no idea about the pricing on repairs! For not already having TEP or being eligible to put TEP on my phone anymore, $35 to fix hardware problems is a ridiculous price. That's some good service!

[Xoom General] Scourge1024:
Well, I just learned that the US wifi images are A LOT different from Canada's. I actually crippled my Xoom temporarily because the US system.img files don't like the Canadian userdata partitions. Well, that is until the userdata partition is wiped.

I'm not going to say much. I'll let the pictures do the talking...

USA:

Homescreens with content:

About:

Apps:

Canada:

Homescreens with content: (Yes, we start out with the stupid wallpaper)

Abooot: (sorry, couldn't resist)

Apps, eh?:

[Xoom General] kmalinich:
That's weird. What motivation would motorola have for doing that?
[Xoom General] Scourge1024:
Companies do a lot of localization stuff. I also noticed (but couldn't capture) the setup screen for the US version only had English, French and Spanish, while the Canadian one seemed more international. It had a bunch of European languages, Korean, Chinese and maybe even Japanese.

Part of the reason they probably didn't give us this one was because we're not supposed to get Google Books up here or something.
[Xoom General] gpstar:
Here are some screenshots of the language list options on the Canadian Xoom's.
[Xoom General] Scourge1024:
You just beat me to that. :D I rotated them in landscape so I only needed 3 pics. I might as well post mine as well.
[Xoom General] xoomrob:
@Scourge1024,

Do you recall any differences when turning these on for the first time? For example, having to accept "Motoblur Terms and Conditions" on one but not the other. Your apps screenshot of the the Canadian version has a "Motoblur Services" app, but the US one doesn't.

This post http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=12944248&postcount=336 seems to show Motoblur services running on a UK version. Can you verify whether or not your US version has Motoblur services on it?

I have a Canadian version as well, but am looking for one without the Motoblur stuff on it.

XR.
[Xoom General] Scourge1024:
I'm pretty sure I had to accept some Motorola terms and conditions every time I did wipe on my XOOM. At the very end of the initial setup. I can't take a snapshot of that as adb won't connect till after.

I wonder if the Canadian version is like the UK one?

I also ripped the stock apk files from both US and Canadian versions.
[Xoom General] duraeas:
I don't suppose I can get you to post up/send me the APK for Google Books?My Canadian image seriously lacks it (as you can tell!) and the phone version just doesn't do it.

I'll name my first born after you!
[Xoom General] Scourge1024:
Are you sure? My name is Howard. Lol. Not the coolest name out there.

But I might be able to save you some trouble. I couldn't install it. I pushed "BooksTablet.apk" and "BooksTablet.odex" into my /system/app folder and I don't see it on my Xoom at all (after a reboot of course).
[Xoom General] duraeas:
:)

You seem to be right - it looks like they've done something to prevent these apps from working with the Canadian image. Sucks! Kindle doesn't have a nice widget and page turning animations like GB does.
[Xoom General] Gwartan:
I have been wondering why our neighbors to the north are not allowed Google books? Has anything been said officially?
[Xoom General] 1234567188:
If I had to guess I would say differences in copyright laws.
[Xoom General] Scourge1024:
It'd be nice to have a hybrid of the two. With all the languages in the Canadian version and all the apps from the US one.
[Xoom General] MitchRapp:
I really wish you could import epub files into the kindle app... looks nice and clean. The most stable reader after that seems to be Moon+
[Xoom General] Lothaen:

three booksmarks - very few apps installed

but without the dodgy wallpaper
[Xoom General] 1/2asleep:
Ya kinda sucks that the Canadian version doesn't the US version of google books. I've been trying for 2 days to find it until i found this thread that made me understand that it's impossible.
[Xoom General] hdtvpower:
Hey guys,

The advantage of the canadian version is the languages. i have bought the US version and cannot get the German language and localization running.

Other than google books any reasons not to flash the canadian version on a us hardware? Or do you see any other chance to localize it?

Thanks hdtvpower
[Xoom General] RinTinTigger:
Good question that is! but i wouldnt flash because of that motoblur nonsense, just try to get languages over to US xoom
[Xoom General] hdtvpower:
Thanks, resolved it,

Used morelocale2 to set custom locale to "de US N/A"

All available apps now run in German, perfect!

Is US stock ROM portable to Canadian xoom, if where to get it and how to install it.
[Xoom General] Scourge1024:
http://developer.motorola.com/products/software/

is where you get the US ROM and yes, it can be installed on Canadian XOOM. It'll have to wipe all your userdata first though. Also, less language support with US version.
[Xoom General] Lothaen:
I wonder if the US can be installed on the UK Xoom too?

any benefit? I don't care about languages really...
[Xoom General] Legend28469:
So, if I flash the US over my CAN version, can I flash 3.1 then? And have it stay software wise as a us Xoom?
[Xoom General] Scourge1024:
I'm getting ready to try installing 3.1 over the Canadian software. BTW, I don't know if I linked the stock Canadian images somewhere or not...
[Xoom General] burden010:
Sweet, let us know how you get on.
[Xoom General] Scourge1024:
It failed. I'm about to head to work but it could either be my SD cards, could be update.zip itself (used Windows to put in that updater script) or it could simply be that the Canadian version software doesn't work with that update.

I suspect that the non-American Xooms that did get it working had put in a clean US system image as I recall a lot of these Xooms required a userdata wipe. I know the US system isn't compatible with Canadian userdata. It just ends up in a boot loop.

I'm pretty sure I failed at the "assert" part of the updater script.
[Xoom General] vimmy2492:
so it is no possible to get US stock ROM running on Canadian Xoom?

I don't want languages, because I just use English. But I'm missing many features like "Tablet apps" section in Market and mainly the Books app.

I wonder when we will get the 3.1 update. BTW, does the Canadian Xoom have Movie rentals in 3.1? If it doesn't, fml.
[Xoom General] burden010:
You can flash the stock US 3.01 images then the update. That will work because you'll basically have a US Xoom now... assuming, obviously, that you have a wifi only.
[Xoom General] Scourge1024:
That's what I ended up doing.
[Xoom General] RMerlin:
Just flashed my Canadian Xoom with the US firmware as well.

I noticed something interesting: the Update checker is different between the US and Canadian firmwares. While the Canadian one only shows a small popup window whenever you check for updates, the US one has an actual whole screen devoted to it, displaying the last check date and such. Makes me suspect that the US one has the pure Google update checker (hence updates coming from Google, and more quickly), while the Canadian one _might_ be a custom update checker, pointing possibly at a totally different server (Motorola's?).
[Xoom General] burden010:
I think that was the case with 3.01 RMerlin but from what I've read 3.1 changes the US version to the same update checker as we already had.
[Xoom General] Danger_Dan:
Sucks that Motorola went this route, imagine the pain in updating so many different builds on the exact, same platform. While I have no love lost for Apple, they at least have one build per platform instead of locking features willy-nilly based on their whim.

Case in point, the announcement that the Canadian wifi-only Xooms will get SD-card access sooner than the US version. Why not push the all out at the same time?

Also sucks to see Android becoming so fractured from all the different manufacturers.
[Xoom General] Lothaen:
makes me wonder if the US get 3.1 - moto may be holding back to get SD working for everyone else =p then push out 3.1 later- wonder if that was what they wanted to release awhile back but then pulled the update as google was pushing 3.1
[Xoom General] alias_neo:
Motoblur service is because we get OTA from moto, not from Google like you guys. The service facilitates OTA from moto servers.

I'm UK 3G. I believe, but may be wrong, that the US Verizon, is the only Google Experience Device, and doesn't cone with motoblur service.
[Xoom General] RMerlin:
Actually, Moto Canada never said Canada would get SD card support sooner than the US. They only said that we would be getting it "soon". Which leads to this theory of mine:

I noted before that Canada and US 3.0.1 had a different update module. My theory was that the US got their update straight from Google, while Canada (and Europe?) gets it from Motorola.

Now, burden010 mentionned that with the 3.1 update, the US seems to have the same update module as Canada. Maybe that means that future updates (for everyone) would all come from the same source. So, when Canada gets, say, 3.1.1 with SD card support, the US (who now shares the same update module) would also get it at the same time.

Yes, that's a lot of speculation. But that's the best you can do when nobody at Motorola seems to care enough to keep in touch with their current customers :(

And good point on the iOS comparison: Apple doesn't seem to need to fragment their install base based on their region. The App Store does it for them, i.e. if you are eligible in your region for their iBooks stuff, then the iBook reader will show up on the store. Way more elegant and easier to maintain than selling devices with region-specific features. And since you need Internet access to download books anyway, might as well shove the reader on the Market.

That could easily be solved by Motorola: 1) add all the missing locales to the US firmware, 2) Push the same 3.1.1 code base to the whole planet.
[Xoom General] deafsheep:
What this thread doesnt say is: is there a software difference that cannot be compensated? I mean is there application/theme/widget on US stock device that cannot be installed (from public non flashing source) to Canada/EU version?
[Xoom General] RMerlin:
The Canada one supports more languages than the US one. But if like me all you want is the French Canadian keyboard, the US firmware has it. Same with French voice in/out if you use voice search or things like that.

It might also have different wallpapers, but nothing good IMHO.

I haven't noticed anything else missing when I switched to the US one - yet.

Now i can't get back into recovery nor the OS itself. The only thing i could do is nvflash since all i can do now is to go to nvflash mode, my phone is a HK ROM v10A, but all i could find was v10b since Modoco is "re-constructing" its website. So here's the question:

1. i nvflashed v10b into my phone, everything was success, but when it was done, its stuck in a bootloop at the LG logo. I re-flash a couple times with success with no errors, but still the same bootloop. What can i do now?

2. Do i have to flash the same 10A rom in order to get back into the OS?

3. I heard nvflash messes with files related to the phone's IMEI, under what circumstance would nvflash corrupt those files and lose my IMEI?
