OK I am still trying to learn how to modify the Rosie.apk w/leedroid tweaks. I decompiled with no errors after replacing the png file that was giving me an error. I modified line 735 and saved, using Notepad++. I recompiled with no errors and renamed to Rosie.apk and pushed to /system/app/ but it is not working HTC Sense doesn't even show up as a launcher.

Does compression have any thing to do with it? I noticed the the apk I pull from the phone is much larger than the one that I re-zip after replacing the png. The size only changes about 10kb after decompiling, editing, and recompiling. I want to learn this so BAD and I am just getting frustrated!

I can post log files tomorrow if it helps. I am using APK Multi-tool and not receiving any errors.

Sorry to bother you guys.
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
When you say "sense doesn't even show up as a launcher"...

Do you have sense launcher disabled within tweaks? Is it giving you options to choose different launchers?
[HTC EVO 3D] HeckNoTechnO:
I have several loaded on my phone after pushing the file to the phone and I hit the home button HTC Sense is not an option, I even tried rebooting, then I just push my original Rosie.apk and it is there.
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
Which file are you pushing? Like where are you getting it?

Try dragging the classes.dex out of the modded Rosie.apk and into the original unmodded Rosie.apk...then push the new Frankenstein Rosie.apk
[HTC EVO 3D] HeckNoTechnO:
I am pulling the Rosie.apk from /system/app/ modding it and pushing it back to /system/app/ via adb push command. I will try putting the classes.dex file and report if it works tomorrow.
[HTC EVO 3D] fernando sor:
ok this is what ive discovered so far. the files Lockscreen_weather.m10 and Lockscreen_weather_bg.m10 are refernced in WISactivity.smali in IdleScreen_Weather.apk. look around line 256. the theme that is set in the manifest for the app is already set to android:style wallpaper. so what that tells me is the images really are not transparent.

im done for tonight but it seems to me that either the images will not truly display transparency and that needs to be figured out or figure out how to change the smali reference placing those images. the smali refernces point to a scene in com.htc.fusion.fx. ideally it would be cool to just refernce an image in the app that would be created with the image just being a transparent shell.

sounds easy huh?
[HTC EVO 3D] fernando sor:
The thing is as Jeff will tell you i hate skins and purposely have ignored them and so i know nothing of m10s

So if it was possible to write those two files out i mentioned earlier would the app even boot? So you m10 experts will have to let me know what's all inside those two files I mentioned

[HTC EVO 3D] chogardjr:
Find the public.xml code for the image that it is using and search for that in the smali. Then replace that public code with the public code for the one you want to use. Bam...you just been crash coursed :D

But there's no existing public id, were trying to replace a reference to an .m10 with a public I'd for an image.

I think you and steal25 could get "rec dev" since you have ROMs out. I still think it's lame you need a ROM or other "dev" thread to get that status.

[HTC EVO 3D] fernando sor:
That is just listing how they are laid out in the Smali thread. The change has to be further into the code where you see them again
[HTC EVO 3D] dased14:
Well I tried to add a trans pic in the drawable folder and changed all the 4x4/weatherscreen_bg.m10 t the new pic and got trans background but no weather or lockscreen. But I may have screwed sowrhing up

if it doesn't blow it up its all good
[HTC EVO 3D] HeckNoTechnO:
Just to let you know I installed warm 2.3 fresh install and pulled the Rosie.apk, completed the mod, swapped the classes.dex as you suggested and it worked like a charm. Thanks for the assistance.

With that said it has raised many questions for me, Like when you mod a smali file is it only in the classes.dex? I know you have a lot of experence but how did you know that? Finally if I am just changing a few lines of code in a smali file will just swapping the classes.dex file out work with any apk?

I have themed a few ROMs mainly for the EVO 4g, things changed a lot with m10 files. I am very interested in learning more. Do you have any suggestions on materials that I could read that could help me in my ventures?

[HTC EVO 3D] GrimReaper24:
That apkpack tool the Sig it gives is it a beta Sig like a tester Sig or a full one ? Thanks been poking through it.
[HTC EVO 3D] GrimReaper24:
I did smali edits in notification to make it transparent and add a custom background. All i did to keep the original sig was copy the res folder over to the original apk . Everything worked also had a custom background I wanted.

So i wonder if you always need to sign or just move some files around ?
[HTC EVO 3D] il Duce:
progress is progress :) share your steps? maybe collectively we can figure it out. Looks like lots of us looking privately, so maybe together = world domination?
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
I have never signed an apk that I've modded, because I do it the way I quoted above. Doing it that way preserves the original signature

I'm still trying to find out if they are giving dual titles out for dev and themer. There hasn't been anything official for us to read yet. I just throw names to admin, there is a chance they may ban me for not leaving them alone.
[HTC EVO 3D] dased14:
well not that it amounted to much progress:(

i added a 540x960 trans png to drawable-hdpi and named it trans_bg then i added a public id in values and then i changed all 5 calls of 4x4/Lockscreen_weather.m10 to drawable/trans_bg.png. like i said i'm probably doing it wrong. but i guess to learn how to play with smali you have to do it wrong so you can learn to do it right;)

[HTC EVO 3D] jeffsanace:
Just got done reading the new Recognized titles that are available on XDA. One in particular "Recognized Contributor" should in my opinion, be bestowed upon everyone who has written tutorials or guides to tirelessly provide help and information to others. After all that's what this entire thread is dedicated to, and there are most certainly many that deserve it. Fernando Sor, Tommy Tomatoe, Steal25, Vinchenzop, Papa Smurf151 are a few. Now I know some of them are already recognized for other things, but why should they not also hold this honor as well. I know that this one is probably one that some would be most proud of, for it is in my mind what this site is really all about. And I would like to thank each and everyone of them for all their hard work and dedication. Sorry for the rant, just expressing my opinion.
[HTC EVO 3D] tommytomatoe:
Another post well said!

I agree with you wholeheartedly on the recognized contributor> recognized dev. I know a lot of people with the tag recognized developer who in all honesty don't really do anything special at all or contribute, but there are a handful of peeps who do and they deserve a little special thanks from the community. Good work gang!
[HTC EVO 3D] jeffsanace:
I had to go to tapatalk to give that thanks because I was out. LOL Maybe they should implement user votes and count them towards the decisions on tags.
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
@Jeff...recognized developer, recognized contributor, recognized anything for that matter...that's not why I, or I assume you and many others, do it. We help/assist/discover/whatever, because this is how xda 'should' be. This place isn't about tech support, its not about 'how to's'. Its all about progress.

Sure, I enjoy helping people learn, because that's how I (and I'm sure you, and Tommy and fern, and luke, and anyone else) got their start. But this thread is a prime example of revolution. In many volumes it speaks of progress of the Android os in general.

I'm not proud to be a recognized anything...I'm just proud to be 'part of it all'

[HTC EVO 3D] jeffsanace:
Very well said, and I agree. However it is a nice thing to be appreciated by your peers. I also believe it is a way for people to know who they can ask for help without being flamed into next week. I personally get several emails and pm's a week asking for help from users on many different forums. And I can proudly say that I try to help everyone of them if I can. My reputation is not that of a flamethrower and that is why they reach out. That would just be another way for them to know who to approach for help. Thoughts?

Look man, I'm trying really hard to hit the 2K post mark. LOL Plus I'm bored.
[HTC EVO 3D] Vinchenzop:
Unfortunately, many users are victims of the xda app, which doesn't directly show a users 'title'. I personally, as Luke knows, have been approached by a few GSM users in search of help with a magnitude of issues. Now, I have a cdma evo 3d, but I've helped a few gsm users do things (such as downgrade their hboot, among other things). I do everything within a scope to help people in any variance of situation.

And don't get me wrong...I'm appreciative and proud of my status as a recognized developer, I wave that flag with honor.. However, being respected by 'my peers' is second to being helpful to others. I get more out of teaching an individual user a single thing, than teaching an entire community anything
