I have been searching Google for a while trying to find an easy way to modify and edit the Phone.apk. I have tried a few times with what I have found but cannot get it to work at all. I'm trying to remove the increasing ringtone code and create a new apk that will work. If anybody can help me do this I would greatly appriciate it.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] LuponX:
I flashed Weapon v3.0 a few weeks ago (and wiped everything in CWM) and regardless of the WiFi sleep policy, I constantly need to disable and re-enable WiFi to get it to work after my phone's been inactive for a while. If I don't anything using the internet just times out. I came from xboarder's rooted GB OTA and didn't have this problem, and I didn't have this problem with CM7 either. Any help?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] ZeroT| Demented:
Use cm7 then its way better
[T-Mobile LG G2x] LuponX:
I liked CM7, but I had that stupid APN issue so data wouldn't work, both on the RC and 7.1.0.1 stable. The APNs Backup/Restore app works temporarily, but I don't want to reboot my phone every time I do that. I'm probably going to try nightly 201 next, but I still would like to know why Weapon has this WiFi problem while I don't see anyone else having it.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] buru898:
Happens to me on cm7 regardless of sleep policy.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Spitfire:
Didn't experience that problem, maybe try flashing an older weapon over it (2.8 or 2.7) and see if that works. I had 2.8 but was having a bluetooth problem and 2.7 is working fine for me.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Core Memory:
I had this from a battery management app. Uninstall any you have and reset any other wifi related timed management to not managing wifi. See if that helps. If it does, reinstall the battery management app and don't set it to manage wifi. If that doesn' t work, reflash the kernel and rom
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SiriusCybernetik:
Dear all,

I am desperately looking for a STK.apk from the ICS SDK.

I am currently unable to install the sdk since I have no access to a computer right now.

Can someone please post a link to the latest stk.apk?

Edit:

I have found another STK.apk than the one from post 3. The latter one has been extracted from OneCosmic's ICS Beta 1. It works fine for me as well. Apparently my Dual SIM adapter does not need all functions of STK, so it may not work for sending provider codes.

Anyone who is able to use the attached STK with provider codes, please provide feedback for others.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fhkal:
mmeeetooo i need it plzzzzz
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SiriusCybernetik:
Success

To all it may concern:

I downloaded the STP.apk (SIM ToolKit) from the ICS Apps Dump , copied the apk to "system/app" and changed the permissions to Owner: RW, Group: R, Others: R

To do so, use any Root Explorer app.

As I am not yet allowed to paste links, please PM me if you want me to sent it to you.

Works like a charm now...

Steps:

1. Download 'stk.apk' and copy it somewhere on your phone

2. Move it to '/system/app' with a root enabled file manager

3. Change the permissions as described above

4. Reboot

F.y.i.: Root does not work on my ES File Explorer.

I use 'File Manager HD', cause it's easy to use and it is free.

Dont forget to enable root in the settings.

Permissions can be changed by long press on the file.

Doesn't work with 4.0.3 Is there newer apk available?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SiriusCybernetik:
Well I am on Onecosmics great RC1 with "updated" kernel, which is also 4.0.3 and it works perfect. It works even better than on GB.

I am using a dual SIM adapter which needs STK to switch between SIMs. On GB Stock, the process crashed from time to time and I had to restart the phone in order to be able to switch SIMs. Now, I doesn't crash anymore.

- Did you copy the file with a root-enabled explorer and assign the correct permissions?

- Do you have any radio related issues on your ICS installation? (e.g. incoming/outgoing calls working, no mobile data issues etc.)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Dvl1:
I did all the things above, can't instal it....

Greetz
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SiriusCybernetik:
I don't think that you need another version, since this one is from the ICS System App Dump and it works perfect with 4.03

Do you receive any FCs on the Phone process? Can you copy stk.apk to system/app ? Did you check permissions (i.e. rw-r--r--)? Is the stk.apk still in the correct folder after reboot? Did you reboot?

A detailed description of what happens would be an asset if you want help.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Toonio:
I did everything as described here. Seems that app somehow works, but something isn't like it should be. My confirmation through stk doesnt reach back to server I guess.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aorth:
STK depends on RIL!

I'm not surprised... this is the same behavior I saw on CyanogenMod 7.

SIM Toolkit is heavily dependent on the Radio Interface Layer (RIL) implementation. As I understand it, the RIL is the hardware/software component which interacts with the phone's modem/baseband in order to call, SMS, 3G, etc. SIM Toolkit and USSD codes are all dependent on separate functions in the hardware, and the software layer must also implement hooks for them to work properly. The original poster's SIM switching gadget might work because the functions it relies on are implemented, while the ones we need are not.

Also, I've noticed that certain operations work on Onecosmic's ICS which don't work on Teamhacksung's, such as *522#, my bank's mobile interface. STK has only ever worked for me on Samsung stock ROMs.

More info about Android's RIL software and how it interacts with the hardware: http://www.netmite.com/android/mydroid/development/pdk/docs/telephony.html
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SiriusCybernetik:
Thanks aorth, for this detailed insight.

So I must consider myself as a 'lucky guy'.

Could the issue be fixed by using or porting a Nexus S modem?

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SiriusCybernetik:
What exactly does not work? Do you have working root access?

If you are not able to copy the files to the specified location, then either your root is not working or you have not enabled it correctly.

In the app I mentioned, you must do the following:

- start 'file manager'

- press left button and select 'settings' from the context menu

- tick 'Root Explorer' and 'Mount system writeable' checkboxes

- allow the app root access whenever asked...

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SiriusCybernetik:
Well, then I cannot help you any further. For me the app appeared as "SIM Toolkit" in my appdrawer right after reboot. Depending on your system language it may have a different name (in french it is "Boite à outils SIM")

One last thing, may I ask you to confirm that "stk.apk" is still in your "system/app" folder (even after reboot) and that it has the correct permissions?

yes, "stk.apk" is in "system/app" folder, about perimissions i wouldnt know, cuz with Root explorer i setted it to "rw- r-- r--" and it shows it like that, but Super Manager shows some diffrent permissions and when i change to "rw- r-- r--" with Super Manager, well, it doesnt work, it still shows as it was before (something diffrent, i dont remember which are "checked"), but Root Explorer will show "rw- r-- r--" :s

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SiriusCybernetik:
I think this is Google-related.

From what I know, the Samsung framework is responsible for establishing the link between STK and the RIL ( which communicates with the outer word).

As the switching between my sim cards happens locally, I do not face these issues.

Maybe if one day one of the developers really needs STK, he will be motivated to write some kind of interface to get it working. But I think this is unlikely to happen.

STK Working on Captivate ICS

Hi friends:

Basically these are the steps I've used to "install" STK in my Captivate with ICS 4.0.3, base band I90000UGJL2

1. Download attached file (Stk.zip)

2. Using Ghost Commander (required root access), browse and copy the uncompressed Stk.apk file in the path /system/app#rw in the internal phone memory.

3. Using the Ghost Commander chmod/chown, modify Stk.apk user and group, setting root and change permisions to RW to root user and R to Group and Other.

4. Restart the phone.

It procedure have been working and Sim Toolkit is now as an icon in the apps.

In my case, not all services like Banking are completly functional :( but all the rest are oKay :D.

Please confirm if to someothers this procedure works or if there is another updated apk file.

I have been using Playon for a few years now. there are some open source variations, I'll see if I can find some links for you later today.
[Acer Iconia Tab A100] jschall:
Update on Gmote:

You install a small Gmote server program on your PC (Windows/Mac/Linux) and the Gmote client on your tablet. You then browse the media paths you have configured on the server. You select whether to play the file on the PC or on the Android device. If you select to play on the "phone", you have to select which player app to use. I had installed Vplayer, and selected it.

Update on Vplayer:

It works, but just barely. Lots of pixellation on my A100. It seems to be designed only for playing local files from /mnt/sdcard, doesn't even "see" /mnt/ext_card.
