No man I wasnt bein harsh at all didnt mean for it to come off that way and believe me I've searched for hours and asked and mik said it basically had to be rebuilt and you couldnt use the resources.arsc. This may be rom specific but I did try to decompile bliss's mms.apk and it also threw the same errors has nothing to do with this thread really was just pointing it out. I love your work diamond dont mean to offend man:D Gonna give apk manager a try but I dont see how that would help apkmanager uses apktool so its onehalf dozen or the other really..Isnt it?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Diamondback:
Lol okay :D

You know that this tool only works for apks which use m10 files?

mms.apk isn't one of them.

This tool doesn't replace the normal apktool. :)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Pneuma1985:
yeah I know I'm an avid user of your tool and its abilities lol been theming for a while now.. Awesome tool.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] bmx642:
yes i know im a noob and trying to figure all this out. i have downloaded the m10 tools but i cant do anything with the program. i see that i also need a working .NET 4 Framework installation to run the M10Editor. where do i get this in order to make it work?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Diamondback:
'Can't do anything' isn't exactly a good description of what's happening ;)

You need to give me some more details :)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] DutchDanny:
Sorry for gettin this Offtopic...

Did i mis the download link you where talking about :D
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Diamondback:
Okay guys, who ever is interested, here is the GUI Dev Preview I promised for today.

It's far from being finished and as I said multiple times, you can't save apks but it's enough to give me valuable feedback on my new UI.

More information here.

Make sure you have .net 4.0 FULL installed (not only the client profile) and it should run. Try to leave some feedback on virtuous forums, so I can improve it :)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] DutchDanny:
Use google to search for: .NET 4 framework... and all will go fine

---------- Post added at 11:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:38 PM ----------

YEAHHH

Gonna test it

EDIT: WOW this rules fabian ! ! !

First view/feel is great.

Very nice and good overview.

This wil make coders & themers very happy

Maybe a little bit to much of the M10 tools icon

Try to make an icon for the object/option

(maybe its just an test icon :rolleyes:)

Will look at it again tomorrow
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Diamondback:
Nice to hear it runs and you like it :) Don't worry, the M10 icons will be replaced by real ones, they are just placeholders :D

Keep on playing with it, I think you may find other features you haven't seen yet :)

There's lots of things in it, especially the connections between the Structure/Images and the Xml Editor.

See also the custom properties for the (atm only one) FxTextLabel in the properties panel.

Still lots to come, I have so many ideas what to add etc. But first we need that new de/compiler so I can actually SAVE files again :D

The converter I wrote only supports conversion from old to new format and not the other way round. That's the reason why there's no save option yet ;)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] cyber_pete:
Just left you some feedback in the Virtuous forum.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Dunc001:
Sorry, bit late to the party here - only just found your thread today and have to say that this is awesome work. Got really excited and started to think I might feel at home (having used m9 Editor loads in manila) and gave it a spin. Got really depressed as couldn't figure out why I couldn't see any images after decompiling until dansta pointed out to me that it doesn't decompile Sense 3.5 yet LOL Is the GUI Beta ready for 3.5 yet or is it still for 3.0 only (yeah I know it won't save anyway - just asking)?

Anyway, glad to be here and thanks for such an indispensable tool :cool:
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Diamondback:
As the current version still uses the old decoder it still can't decompile 3.5 images. But once we got this to the new decoder there shouldn't be a problem :)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Dunc001:
Jeez, HTC don't half like to complicate things do they :p Thanks for the reply - look forward to seeing it fully usable with 3.5 soon...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Dunc001:
Quick question - I tried making one small position edit in the htc quicklaunch widget apk to move the weather clock from bottom right to top right of the screen. Loaded apk into m10 editor and decompiled all m10 files. Located object in quick_launch_main.m10 and edited the y-position of the weather clock group. Then back to main window and clicked 'Save' and the apk resaved. Copied to my SD and used ES File Explorer to overwrite widget apk. Rebooted to CWM, wiped cache, fix permissions and booted. Widget no longer on screen and not available in widget menu. File has same permissions as other HTC widgets. What am I doing wrong?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Diamondback:
Two ideas

Make sure you activate zipalign. It's totally needed.

Second thought: use the integrated push feature instead of using a file explorer.

Sometimes you need a reboot too.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Dunc001:
Sorry for the stoopid question, but how do I activate the zipalign feature - the checkbox is greyed out?

EDIT - Ah, just noticed you have to set the two paths (to the exe files in the tools folder in SDK right?). Did this and I now get the zipalign box checked. Trying again...

BTW, this is all I edited:

Not too clear in the screenshot but the bottom item in the left pane is highlighted to give the info on the right.

All I did was change the middle (y-position) number from 20 to -320 to move the whole element up. I figured that would be easier than having to edit the positions for each element within the weather clock group (especially as a couple don't even appear to have Position properties!).

I am assuming that the position property is x;y;z as it was in m9 manila files in WinMo Sense.

Any ideas?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Diamondback:
You need to provide the path to your zipalign.exe in the settings. There's a box for that.

And your idea of moving the complete parent panel was totally okay. That's the way to go.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Dunc001:
Yeah, just found that before I read your reply :rolleyes: I tried again with zipalign enabled but I still have the same result. Unfortunately I'm running MAGLDR on my HD2 so no fastboot - any other way to push the file? If not I'll reflash to cLK so I have fastboot...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Diamondback:
Just give my app the path of your adb.exe and use the first push button on the adb tab.

No need for fastboot. This works without rebooting.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Dunc001:
Yeah, not quite that easy as the ROM I'm running has split system files between NAND and sd-ext, and this particular apk is in sd-ext/sys-parts/app so wouldn't be pushed to the correct place. I have just tried packing into a zip and flashing it through CWM so we'll see if that works...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Diamondback:
Well you can save+zipalign and then push by hand with adb push while the system is running.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Dunc001:
Yep, that worked - thanks for the advice and patience :cool:
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Diamondback:
Glad I could help you :)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Dunc001:
If I want to adjust a Scale Factor what are the three figures that I can set:

Scale Factor = 1:1:1 (Float3)

...and what is the (Float3) bit? I am assuming the first two are scaling in x and y, third one z? I want to scale the same parent as before (weather clock in quicklaunch widget) to about 80% so would:

Scale Factor = 0.8:0.8:1 (Float3)

...be correct?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] triscuit1983:
I've searched through the thread I can't tell if anyone has asked you this yet. I try my best to help out over at the EVO 3D section with making lock rings and the like and for the life of me I cannot get any GSM m10 files to decompile any images. Is this a know problem? And if so do you have any suggestions as to how I can fix it?

I don't have a GSM EVO 3D, but I do have a ridiculous amount of requests from GSM users in my thread. Any info you have would be helpful. Thanks.

Also, thanks for the awesome tools. We'd be screwed without them.:D
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Diamondback:
Totally correct. '(Float3)' just tells you that this property uses float and not int. Nothing more ;) Btw. the 'z' part is never used at all. Just leave the '1' there :)

Well you 'do' tell the tool to decompile images? (little checkbox) What version are you using?

Decoding images is only a known problem if we are talking about sense 3.5 roms.

3.0roms work fine.

Provide some more information so I can help you :)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Echo113:
Dude!! Can I get that?!

Sent from a van down by the river!!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] triscuit1983:
I always check the decompile images check box. I've been making lock rings just fine on Sense 3.0 for CDMA EVO 3D ROMs, even have a little thread with them (in my sig). But every GSM ROM I've tried it on, no go. I've tried it with M10Editor.exe and with using command prompt. I have version 0.5.26.387 of the tools. I've tried to decompile the apks in 4 or 5 different GSM ROMs with no luck. Looking at the apks through file comparison they look the same, but there must be something different about them, at least in the m10 portion of them.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Diamondback:
Please give me your idlescreen_base.apk, so I can check.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] triscuit1983:
The problem doesn't seem to be effecting Idlescreen_Base.apk. But it is on fusion.apk. I normally start with fusion.apk so I've never tried it on Idlescreen_Base.apk until today. But this fusion.apk's images did not decompile when I tried a few minutes ago.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Dunc001:
DB2010 - hope you don't mind me asking here but add you obviously know more about these things than most. ..

Where in the apk for the quicklaunch widget would I find the code that determines how the date is shown below the time? By default if shows as 18/10 but I'd line to edit so it shows Tuesday 18.

I'm not necessarily looking for exact instructions, more a general idea of where that short of change would need to be made. Sorry, as I said I'm still very green on all this android stuff :rolleyes:
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Diamondback:
I will look into that.

Nope, that has nothing to do with m10. M10 is only responsible for the layout not for the content.

The text itself is set via code ;)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Diamondback:
Well yea, I have to leave you here without hope :P

This fusion apk uses the new type 14 images. There is no way atm to decode them ;)

You just have to wait as well as the sense 3.5 crowd ;)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] triscuit1983:
Believe it or not that helps me more than you know. HTC must be screwing with people cause there are two different type of m10 files in the EVO 3D GSM ROMs. I've been going through all the apks and some decompile and some don't. Not nice. :(

Thanks again for the help. I'm going to post your comment to me over in my thread to hopefully stop a few people from asking the same question again.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Diamondback:
Maybe try a CDMA fusion then? There are only images in it so it could work. I guess gsm Rom is newer. They used that type only in latest releases...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] triscuit1983:
That's exactly what we're trying but it either doesn't work or there are graphical glitches. The fact that I don't have a GSM version phone makes it impossible for me to test. It doesn't make it any easier that the few GSM testers I've had don't seem to have the knowledge to do something as simple as pushing files through ADB. It's been fun to say the least.

I'd have to say that the EVO 3D section is plagued with some of the dumbest people I've ever seen on XDA, which makes me sad to be a part of it. Searching has completely stopped. There has to be an average of 15 threads a day getting closed over there. Once again thanks for the help, looking forward to the update for Sense 3.5 and the like. Great Job.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] :
Welcome to the Sensation forum then :) same crap, same noobs, same fools who cannot even persue a handful of pages.

To quote someone: "you assume we are smart. When in fact, we are not". :)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Diamondback:
Okay, if you have problems justifying the lack of mods to your users here again something for you to quote :

Currently there is no way to make graphical mods for any sense 3.5 roms and the gsm evo 3d roms.

We are working on a solution as fast as we can so please stay calm until it's done.

It's done when it's done.

Happy?:P

I know that feeling of such noobs...

Dhd forum got even worse...those noobs now think they can do good roms...:(

Rom development isn't anymore what it used to be, sad but true...:(
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Diamondback:
Ah btw, have you tried OLDER releases?

Like maybe the first stock Rom of gsm evo?

I am not sure why they use the new images here... Maybe it has something to do with 3d...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] triscuit1983:
Yep, this has been going on for like 3 months now. I've tried 5 or more ROMs on 3-4 different firmwares with no luck. There are a few mods that have made some themes "work" but it's not flawless, which is what the noob mob seems to need.

Sadly I'm pretty much a noob myself, I can't code for **** but I can read and follow instructions. I've never considered myself a dev or a mod, I just like to play around and tweak things. And if I can't figure out what I'm doing it's my fault so I keep my comments and stupid questions to myself. I'm so sick of the blaming and finger pointing because nobody reads the OP any more.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Diamondback:
And another annoyed user complaining about the so called 'community'...

I can understand you so much mate... Developing here got really annoying in the last time... And it seems even modding :(
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] NRGZ28:
And it's only gonna get worse... as more and more noobs demand mods and roms, withouth even thinking about being respectful to the ones that provide that to them. Sad :/

Have a look at THIS thread - you'll find all you want to know there.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Restorer:
Sorry, since things are a bit slow here pending a new release, maybe I will be forgiven also for straying a little OT.

"Noobs" is the wrong word to use here. All that has happened in the four years since I've been around XDA is that the average poster's age has plummeted!

We all know many (;)) teenagers are demanding and lack respect. Trouble is, most of us older folk seem to want to confront bad behaviour on these boards instead of just ignoring those posts and setting an example by ours.

Also, moderators are slow to nip it in the bud, preferring sometimes to just act with an "iron fist".

This all leads to a lot of drama which fuels the "Facebook generation" even further and eventually causes even us oldies to start aligning ourselves with certain developers against others.

This is so not what XDA is about but I can't think what a simple answer can be.

I am not a diplomat. I have no idea if the DHD forum is typical of others, but the fact that open warfare seems to have grown up recently between developers - none of whom are teenagers ffs - has to be a major factor here.

Kids love to join gangs and fight - why give them an excuse :confused:?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] NRGZ28:
I agree. The android userbase is quite different than what the windows mobile userbase was in the years past. The level of maturity of users in general is much much lower. And... you'll be surprised how young some of the developers/chefs are around here. I'm 33, but some are not even out of their teen years yet and you can definitely see the drama surround them because of it :)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] dkdude36:
glad to hear it! thanks for all the work you guys do.

btw to the convo ^^^^ we're not all bad
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] notsointeresting:
Great work guys. Loving the UI preview of the new version, It's going to be great.

Feel the need to donate again.

Yea not all teenagers are like that, Teenagers are just put into that stereotype so the good ones are thrown in there to :D.

Most of the younger developers/themers/modders are fine, as they know how this system is supposed to function.

It's the ones that don't do anything and expect everything to be handed to them on a silver platter here

I just want to inform you that the tool won't be a tool again. It can do way more now, I guess even more than anybody here would imagine :)

At the moment I rewrote about 95% of the code of the old M10Tools while making it faster, easier to work with and of course just prettyier :)

The workflow completely changed. It's not about loading and saving apks anymore.

Everyone who works with Visual Studio or similar IDEs will recognize the new workflow. :)

Stay tuned for further information.
