Hi,

I use apktool and have a problem.

I sucessful decompile apk and get direcrory with app name.

When compile this directory (without change) I get apk file.

But apk file cannot install on phone!

What I do wrong?

I just decompile and compile without change and apk cannot install...

Help..
[Desire Themes and Apps] danarama:
What apk is it?

Some .apk's just will not install. I had an apk that compiled 1MB smaller, without change. Its not a perfect system.
[Desire Themes and Apps] atlantisu21:
Name is not important, but original file size is 1,376 MB

and compiled file size now is 1,372 MB

Where is 4KB?
[Desire Themes and Apps] danarama:
Well I only asked the name incase it was one I myself had issues with or someone else had.

Now I just think you're doing something suspicious by answering.like that :confused:

4KB not as bad as 1MB. But you're still losing size which will be why it won't install.

Can't help any more than that I'm afraid. Except to say I have seen the issue before and never resolved it
[Desire Themes and Apps] atlantisu21:
Suspicious :)

I tried more apk without sucess..beacause I dont tell a name.

Actual apk is BeoGSP-6.apk and there I lost 18KB...

I dont understand this compiler!?

Is there any another compiler with more working chance?

Can I export resource to Eclipse and make apk from here?
[Desire Themes and Apps] danarama:
There is also APK manager. its pretty similar as far as I can tell.
[Desire Themes and Apps] nickabbott:
There's APK Manager or APK Multi Tool which I use and both do the job quite well. I need APK Multi to decompile ICS or newer APK's and I use APK Manager 4.9 to decompile the APK's from the oxygen ROM.

If it decompiles and recompiles without errors then the only thing you might need to do is sign the APK. It won't install if it's a non-system APK and you haven't signed it.

APK Manager 4.9 option 16 signs the APK's so I just use that and if there're no errors it will sign and install fine.
[Desire Themes and Apps] atlantisu21:
Thanx! Works with APK Manager. This is a great thing! :)

I signed apk and now work

Whenever I add some icons to the dock with Touchwiz via appdrawer ->edit it seems to be crashing.

Has anyone come across a problem like this or point me in the right direction?
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cooza:
If its the 4.5nextgen modded one then it happened to me too.Its a bit unstable.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sifun:
I just did a full wipe, my touchwiz launcher started working again.

Then did a restore from titanium backup and it started to not work again.

So I'm thinking something i've got is stopping it from happening, I've got ice cream domination theme etc, (i've installed it correctly as per the steps)

[General Questions and Answers] PortoBraso:
In germany most of the xperia smartphones costs 300 euro

I think this its nearly 400 $

but take a look at the xperia mini pro i think its very cheap
[General Questions and Answers] James_patageul:
Yeah seem a great deal, for testing purpose !! but did you know him true resolution, because on some website i found 320x240 (which is a little low) and on other 320x480 is there 2 sort of Xperia mini pro ?

thx a lot
[General Questions and Answers] BudgyN1:
The new Xperia Mini Pro SK17i is a good phone. I have it and its running smoothly, havent got any problems with it. Only disappointing is that the screen is small. A bigger screen would definitely help.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] reynoldsrobbie:
Just an FYI, I messaged ASUS on their FB page about the bootloader. They said that the unlocker is ready and they are just waiting for the final legal agreement that will be needed to proceed. Should be seeing it very soon....fingers crossed!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] droidx2.3.3:

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] doeboy711:
Try FB for the source (ASUS North America).....that's where I would look. Roy's post was on Sat at 12:20am. That should help you out but I don't see where they replied back with the info. Did they PM you the info?

They really need to fix their Facebook fragmenting its worse than android fragmentation all the different pages contradict each other when they say stuff
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] yoursexyhero:
Not to sound like a douche but id believe it more if you jus screen shot it since its a short convo. Much more believable IMHO
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] doeboy711:
I will wait a week or two as well. I want to see if they can find a way around using the Asus bootloader unlocker. I hope we get a lot of developers working on the TFP. The more the merrier :D
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] teknomar7:
I'm surprised they didn't release it earlier. It'll free them up of people making anymore warranty claims on bad hardware. That's what scares me a bit. I'll wait until ROMs show up first. So far, no hardware issues for me.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] royredman:
Hey dude, thats my post XD
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] doeboy711:
I know. It took me about 3 minutes to find it on FB. You said in your OP that you contacted them on FB, so I looked to see exactly what they had to say lol.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] reynoldsrobbie:
Here you go.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] stretchwookie:
im interested in a way around it too. similar thing happened on epic 4g touch. unlocking the bootloader caused a counter to be set off and an ugly triangled appeared in the boot splash (proving unlocker was used). but after a while, they figured out how to do it without the phone recording it was unlocked. i want this for the prime, in case i ever have to send it in ;)

thanks for s/s
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Magnesus:
@strechwookie - since they are using only a few SBKs for all Transformers I think the SBKs will soon be read from the tool so you can unlock without it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Swiftks:
Could be like the Atrix too, when unlocking it's bootloader you permantly burn a fuse... so while you may be able to "hide" the unlock on the boot screen by returning to stock, a savvy RMA tech could still tell if you had originally unlocked the bootloader.

Sent from my CM7 Atrix 4G
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Diamondback:
I rather think they are going the HTC way. This tool won't be some kind of *.exe you'll download but a webinterface.

You enter your serialnumber and it generates an unlock code based on the serial number.

This was ASUS will always know if you used their tool or not.

The only chance for us getting away

with

warranty is to write some kind of keygen which does the same as ASUS' tool.

If they are doing it right this won't be possible.

Of course someone could always try to hack the bootloader AlphaRevX style, but i guess not many would be brave & experienced enough to try that.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] MontAlbert:
normally, and with every other device i have owned i have not hesitated to unlock bootloader and void warranty as i have been confident in its build quality, but with this, not so sure. I have already returned one for the reboot issue, an the current one i have has some kind of screen touch issue where when i touch the screen it creates a sort of watery thing under where i touch- only in one particular area of the screen, and there is a part under that which is too white... hard to explain , but long story longer, i dont trust Asus' build quality to void my warranty totally.

I still believe it should be like the nexus'- why should rooting automatically void ALL warranty? If they stuff up the screen, battery, chip etc how would me running a custom rom affect that (assuming it hasnt- eg. OC to extremes etc)...

so i will be RMAing my prime before unlocking and then i will think about it long and hard and hope for someone to come up with an unofficial way to unlock... plus Asus will probably screw us over like HTC did with their pseudo unlock...
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] doddsie:
Not really, its normally fairly easy to reverse a root and put it back to factory settings so they will never know.

Awesome! Thank you! Now I can genuinely be excited ^_^
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rapman543:
When I have my phone plugged in and am tethering 2 worrying things happen.

A. The phone drains battery VERY VERY quickly, (yes even when plugged in). Quickly I mean like 20-30 percent in half an hour.

B. The phone starts to get very very hot. So hot that when I turn it off, it does not let me charge and instead the overheating icon flashes. If I leave it on, the screen and the capacitive touch buttons start to flash erratically and the back gets even hotter.

This kind of frightens me, is it happening to anybody else? If so can you please post. Also I am using Blazer ROM 3.8 if that makes a difference. Please reply thanks!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tx_dbs_tx:
How are you tethering? Through usb or wireless hotspot? Are you tethered while on 3G or 4G? How is your signal while tethered? All these things are relevent so answer these these questions so we can offer you some advice.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rapman543:
Thanks for the quick reply. I am tethering through the Sprint Wifi Hotspot on 4G. I have 2 bars on 4G when I am doing this.

Need anything else?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Danial723:
Check your task manager and see how many apps you have eatting at your CPU.....and are you overclocked?....if yes...don't overclock while teathering

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] globen:
what rom you on?? When I was on blazer 3.8 it was like you stated. Since I've been on 3.9 it doesn't get nearly as hot or drain as fast.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Twinsen72:
Mine overheats when using Netflix over 4G and charging. I run my phone stock and really clean with nothing extra running. Sometimes I get an image freeze and a short sound loop and I have to force shut down. But usually it just tells me that it isn't charging anymore due to the battery being too hot. The battery is always cold, but the phone is hot.

The phone runs hot. Wot wah.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rapman543:
I'm on 3.8 (the first version) I got really confused when he released another one the same day? I have nothing else running and I have not touched any CPU settings, so I'll just have to conclude the phone runs hot. Can this permanently damage the phone? If so what can I do to prevent that. Thanks again for the replies!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Overstew:
Heat is the phone's worst enemy. I love PH and his work but you gotta stay away from heat. It shortens the life span of your phone.

Edit: he updated it today so I'd give that a try. ;)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] globen:
Yeah get off 3.8 as soon as you can, when I did the problems you mentioned went away. BTW I'm on his latest 3.9 and it is far superior in every way...3.8 didn't like our phones too much!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jay2o01:
i've definitely had this same exact problem.. Phone/Battery heats up (>40C) and drains quickly with 4g and wifi tethering active. I think overheating the battery like this will shorten the life of the battery in the long run.

Maybe tethering over usb is the solution. fwiw my evo used to tether 4g without this issue. im using blazer 3.9 (upgraded from 3.7, wasnt ever on 3.8) stock clocks/kernel.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Twinsen72:
Hot LIPOs are less efficient in their discharging and will drain more amp-hours than if they were cold and doing the same things. Running them hot will also shorten their life, correct.

If you battery runs hot, swap it for a cold one* and wait until your battery is cold to charge it off a wall charger or something. These low C rated batteries we use don't really get toasty from just charging, but you are wasting energy trying to charge a hot battery over a cold battery.

*Beer does not supply the minimum 3.7v
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Freeroot:
This is gonna sound super ghetto, but it's what I do and it works. When your are running your tether, have the phone plugged in, take an ice pack and a couple paper towels. Put the paper towels on top of the ice pack and your phone on top of that and you're golden for about an hour. Keeps it at a nice 25°c ;)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jay2o01:
sounds like it would work... but there has to be a better way. I tether at work a lot (to get around pages i use like netflix/facebook and whatnot being blocked) what i've been doing is limiting my tethering based on how warm the phone is, when it heats up past 40 i give it a rest (and get back to work).

Helping me find a lasting fix to this problem will allow me to be less productive, and hopefully extend the life of my s2.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] hayabusa1300cc:
I have been meaning to make a thread on this. It happens when tethering only, that the phone overheats.

The reason being is the power management for tether I think got bonkered with the addition of 4g tether. Something is not optimized. The battery level literally deplete 10% within minutes

I've overheated to the point where my vibration motor makes noise, and got corrupt data twice. So now I have to tether with a glass of ice on my phone, ice pack would be better.

I appreciate the tether, but the trade off is ridiculous.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Stearmandriver:
See, this is weird... I've been wondering why my phone DOESN'T heat up appreciably while tethering, w or without 4g. My og epic always would for sure. I do the same type of browsing on tether with this phone (not super intense, just browsing, but it always heated up the og epic) and the phone stays cool to the touch, or maybe just barely perceptibly warmer. Not even enough to make me check batt temp.

I'm running stock rooted, using sprint hotspot hack. No overclock. FWIW.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] phatmanxxl:
I would just take the back off the phone and have a small fan blow into it. Also I heard underclocking to 800 MHz while tethering will keep your phone cooler.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rapman543:
Thanks for the amazing replies people! I recently switched onto 3.9 and to calibrate my battery I charged to 100% and tethered on 4G for about 2 hours no problem. So I suppose it was just some problem with 3.8 then?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] simplizitey:
Ditto

Same thing happens to me but from daily use. I'm on the web a lot. I'm rooted but running stock rom. It's been really bad the last few days, especially after I changed the 4G idle speed. So that may be one issue for me. Oh well
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ag.lotfi:
I experienced the same problem , but I think it's due to tethering as the CPU is processing and forwarding more traffic . I fixed this by limiting the tethering download speed . I used an app called bandwidth ruler for that . and my samsung SIII is relaxed while tethering :)

Bandwidth ruler free on goolge Store

[T-Mobile LG G2x] sksriniv:
I have hellfire phoenix v1.9 running on my g2x. I wanted to add a ringtone from my computer into the g2x.

I have installed the android platform driver and then when I connect, I see drives E and F, but cannot explore them.

I searched and found a suggestion to turn on usb storage--but I find no options on the hellfire phoenix v1.9 to do this.

Also, toggling the usb debugging mode does not change anything.

All I am trying to do is to find the native ringtone folder and add my ringtone which I made in a .ogg format.

Please help
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Волк:
The simplest way for you to do this is put the file on your SD card and using either root explorer or ES file manager. You'll want to mount system as writeable via the settings and go to System\media\audio\ringtones\

Note you don't have to make the .ogg files it will still work with MP3's except alarms for some reason. You will also need to reboot before it shows up in your list.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sksriniv:
Sorry, but I cannot understand when you say,

--You'll want to mount system as writeable via the settings and go to System\media\audio\ringtones\---

Is there a way to move this .ogg or .mp3 file into the ringtones folder (which exists in System\media\audio\ringtones. I can see all the ringtones once I use file explorer.

Even if I copy the file into a external sd, since it is not as intuitive as cut/copy and paste into the folder--how is this done.

What I was hoping was to be able to open this folder thru the computer when connected thru USB and just drag and drop it into the folder of ringtones. If this is not possible assuming the ringtone I want moved is called vintage.ogg , can this be done with ADB commands? Please help
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Волк:
Normally it's read only, as in you can look but you can't touch. Writable means you write to it, you can alter or otherwise put information/files there.

And, yes it's as simple as copy and paste, unless you don't know what you're doing in the first place.

Using ES file explorer is the simplest method. Even if you use ADB you still would have to give it the command to mount the system as writable. If you Droid explorer you still need to have the system mounted as writable.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] GTWalling:
I don't know if it works on all roms, but Gingerbread based roms if you make a directory named ringtones in the Root of the SD card the phone should read it from there, or it does on mine.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sksriniv:
Yes, I did everything--thought it was going to work, but it failed.

Steps I took--

Copied a sound.ogg file into the ext sdcard

Installed ES file explorer and under preferences set permissions to write (because I am rooted)

Copied the file from edt sd card

then switched to the systems\media\audio\ringtones folder, was able to see all the ringtones currently present.

Pasted my sound.ogg file---it said "multiple operations completed, but failed to paste sound.ogg Unclear why..

Should I have rebooted after setting permissions to write, before executing the copy and paste operation?

Thanks for the prior help--but need some more..
[T-Mobile LG G2x] vipaman:
Use an app called software data cable......works like a charm.....remember u need to be on the same network......it uses FTP service.

I use a really useful app called Airdroid which you can find on the Google market. It allows you to establish a Wifi connection through your computer's web browser to your phone. I then transfer whatever music, files, shows or anything I want through it.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] sksriniv:
Thanks everybody

Just followed my previous steps as outlined. Being a noob, I had to do things gingerly, not to screw up. As I guessed, I have to reboot, before the ability to write takes effect (on es file explorer). Then it is just a matter of copy and paste.

Thanks all

Hi guys,

I have using these forums since i got my milestone. I really want to thank everyone for the unending support for this phone. Its really amazing that this community has been so nice and that so many talented have either hellped developed or have developed from their work.

That being said. I have a request for anyone that can help me. It appears my phones sd card reader is fried. 2 different cards have been tried both confirmed to have contents on my laptop. My phone says no sd card is present.

Any suggestions? If it is the cardreader how much is it to replace do you think?

Can i do it myself?

Thank you all again.
[Motorola Droid and Milestone Q&A, Help & Troublesh] qaz2453:
Try cleaning the sd contact points on the phone itself by blowing in it or with compressed air

This is because the gold contacts are very sensitive and small amounts of dirt may compromise the functionally of the SD card

Hope that helps :)

So just updated to the newest version of this excellent music player, ive noticed that they have added a beats effect option, ive used this and have to say that along with all the rest of the audio configurability it seems to me that having HTC Beats is not really worth it anymore, has anybody else tested this and what are thoughts on it. thanks for listening
[HTC Sensation] munkyvirus:
I keep trying to switch to PowerAmp, but whenever I screw with the EQ settings, it just gets washed out. At least with the stock Beats, I just turn it on and it sounds pretty good, at least to me. I'm not an audiophile, but I like my music to sound a certain way.
[HTC Sensation] sshede:
Poweramp is great, kind of worth the 5 dollars. I don't like the "now playing" structure though. Last I tried it, I would begin at the now playing screen, have to go to the library/folder pane, hold the playlist until a context menu comes up, add my playlist to the que, then go back to now playing. Not sure if it's better now, but I prefer the HTC Music player or the CM9 Music player - which is still beta.
[HTC Sensation] MaxMP:
In Poweramp, now playing list (queue) is purely optional as Poweramp just directly plays any list. To play playlist, you go into that playlist and hit any song in it (or do that via long press/context popups).
[HTC Sensation] Termic:
Since MaxMP is here - I'm trying to select the ICS lockscreen controls on build 483 on my Sensation, and for some reason all I'm seeing is the normal lockscreen but the background is completely black instead of the normal background. No audio controls or anything.

Am I doing something wrong?
