[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] TheFixItMan:
again any system apk you just cant select the apk and select install as you would a normal apk - it will come up saying app not installed

You must name it the same as the file you want to replace and put it in a flashable zip and flash it in cwm with system mounted

or

delete the apk with a root browser and push the new app to system/app and set permissions to rw-r-r and restart

or

install the app with system app installer from the playstore and restart (not recommended for systemui.apk - you will get alot of force closes when installing)

note if its an app that hasnt been placed in system before you may also need to copy its lib file to syste/lib if it has one else the app will force close
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] shankarsj:
yes sir ur correct ..

Yesterday .. i got many fcs of systemui while replacing . i used rootexp to replce and also used zip signer n /system/app mover but status bar gone totally ??! :'(

So for every system app we nees to put it in flashbl zip n install through cwm ..i will try this

one more thing sir

i have java 7 and

java se develpmnt kit only

are these enough for using apktool or should i dwnld jre present in this thread

Thanks alott sir
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] TheFixItMan:
Did you set permissions of SystemUI.apk to rw-w-w - you must set permissions if you are pushing an apk to system

like I said if you replace SystemUI.apk that way it will keep force closing

Status bar will dissappear if permissions were not set or the apk was not signed correctly

Flashable zip is the best way to flash system apps as it avoids force closing and can set permissions in the updater script

if you can type apktool in cmd and it gives no errors and gives you a list of all the apk options than apk tool is installed correctly and should work
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] shankarsj:
yeahh.. i have installed corectly

yes sir i have set permissions too..

Hmm i will try with flashbl zip :)
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] TheFixItMan:

Always the same error

when i decompile apks i encounter no problem at all. but when i try to recompile the apk always this error happens! Any help Anyone
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] TheFixItMan:
strange commands you are using

as long as apktool is installed correctly all you need to do is type with the command prompt at the location where the decompiled folder is

apktool b NameOfDecompiledFolder NameYouWantToCallApk.apk

anyway

can you recompile the apk without any changes being made

if no than

either apktool isnt installed properly or impropper use

or

you have not installed the correct framework (normally you would get an error in decompiling resources if this was the case as well)

if yes

the changes you have made are wrong

theres a link in my signature to goto my thread which has my guide with full picture screenshots of one way to use apktool

Noob Question

What exactly is Signing the APK file?
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] TheFixItMan:
This may help answer your question

http://developer.android.com/tools/publishing/app-signing.html

basically signing an apk gives it a certificate of trust - so the system knows who the developer is and so on

however you can sign apks with test keys - these keys are just for personal use so you can install an apk quickly but you cannot publish an apk on the playstore with these keys

use test keys for user apps

use a platform key for most system apps

you can use an app called zip signer which you can get from the playstore to easily sign an apk with test/platform keys or a private/release key

[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] I98:
Hello

Whenever I recompile the apk i always get a file that is less in size than the original one for example i recompiled the systemui.apk and the file was 2.20mb whereas the original one was 2.53mb, then i decompile the original one again and recompiled it without any modification and still got a file that was 2.20mb.I signed it and thenm the file was 2.26mb, but the problem is that the apk doesn't work as I seem to have no statusbar

thanks
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] AndroidBloke:
Once we decompile the .apk, is there any way to change the folder names where the app resides?

And make the app function properly after re-compiling and digitally signing it?

For example, change folder: "appname1/smali/com/randomdeveloper1/appname1"

change over to: "appname2/smali/com/randomdeveloper2/appname2"

I know that changing the names, will force me to manually change the name in every smali and xml file, and will take a lot of time examining and changing each value manually.

Is there any other way to do this or the only way is to do it manually?

Thx in advance.

Why am i getting "Unable to access apktool.jar" error when trying to instal framework-res.apk??????????
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] TheFixItMan:
Either because you haven't placed the correct files in your windows system directory (unzip the files first) you need or you haven't installed Java jdk development toolkit

Files needed are (unzip files below)

apktool1.5.2.tar.bz2

apktool-install-windows-r05-ibot.tar.bz2

See my guide in my signature if you need the files or another guide to using apktool you may find easier to understand

What can i do?
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] TheFixItMan:
Don't think it's possible - apks use smali code - although you can convert this to java you won't be able to convert it back in a way where it will work

You will need to learn smali

help needed

When i type apktool if e:\framework-res.apk it it does not work:confused:
[Galaxy Y GT-S5360 General] TheFixItMan:
Assuming you have java jdk installed & have installed apktool correctly the only thing that could cause that is

1 corrupted apk

2 using the wrong version of apktool eg 1.5.2 will not load lollipop framework as it requires version 2 rc3/4

Equally if using Gingerbread to jellybean I would stay on version 1.5.2

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] uvii:
I've been looking all over this site but I can't find anything. I suppose that it's partly because I'm not sure about the problem myself.

A couple of months back (maybe more) I upgraded to the ICS infinitum rom (blue version) with midnight kernel. It was great - the phone worked fine. Well I'm exaggerating, it ****ed up every once in a while. Programs would automatically shut down and it would get really slow after a while. But all in all it wasn't bad, and it was stable enough for me most of the time....

Then, last Thursday everything seemed to go apart, every program on the phone was shutting down. So I thought I'll just restart and it will be fine. When I did, the phone did not come back on. the kernel would load and then it was stuck on the start-up animation in infinite loops.

Now, to be frank, this isn't the first time this has happened. So I didn't panic. Last time I just used the CMW recovery to re-install the kernel and the rom (I keep the files on the sd card). But this time, I wanted to try to avoid the factory wipe for as long as I could, and try finding a different option, knowing that if all else fails, I have something to revert back to.

Then I did the mistake of deleting the init.d file without re-installing anything. I wanted to, but accidentally clicked on the 'reboot now' option. And then all went to ****. The kernel didn't load. I went to recovery and it couldn't mount the sd card so I couldn't re-install it.

I tried flashing a new kernel using odin, and it did get me a bit better: my CWM recovery can read the sd. However, I still can't mount the system. Even worse, when I get to the infinitum zip roms and re-installing it brings up the status 7 error (which, after searching, seems to come up for different reasons for each person)

Despite installing a new kernel, when I reboot the phone now it doesn't load the kernel anymore, it just stays stuck on the welcome screen. I tried using the recovery to re-install a different kernel, it worked, but the phone still won't start - it now automatically skips to the recovery mode. I don't know if I should try flashing a rom through odin, and I'm too afraid to try anything at all now...

Can anyone help me? Is there any way to restore the init.d file or maybe that has nothing to do with my problem?
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mmorka:
I suggest flash 3-file GB rom via odin with ticked re-partirion and phone bootloaderupdate.
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BlueFlame4:
First of all init.d has nothing to do with the boot of kernel and ROM itself. It's just like autostart in Windows, so if it's missing it shouldn't cause problems.

My solution is to flash a complete stock Gingerbread ROM using Odin. You can get them at sammobile.com. Then afterwards flash a custom kernel and then whatever you like.

If you need help,feel free to ask me :)

[HTC Sensation] frankvallynot:
With the way developers have been able to create stable jellybean ROMs for the HTC sensation I need help choosing which one

In between

AOKP

CM10 Nightlies

MIUI

Pyromod

Etc etc

Which one is a good daily driver to pick I'm tired of sense UI hogging up my ram

Really appreciate the help I'm new to jellybean so I'm not sure what to look for

Thanks!
[HTC Sensation] ridder215215:
I personally prefer Bruce's CM10, it is quite stable and almost everything works. Isn't Pyromod CM9?

[HTC Sensation] Deleted member 4605205:
I like Bruce's Cm10. Quite stable imo.
[HTC Sensation] rgilmore13:
Flash them both and see, bruce's CMX and AOKP. Easy enough to backup and restore if you don't like. They are different from one another with the tweaks you can do and so on. Like the others I'm leaning towards bruce2728's CMX. The only issue with any JB rom is that none of have the FFC working yet.

[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] BrianChase:
This community can be a bit abrasive at times. There was another thread a while back where someone linked to the beta and the developer came on and berated them for doing so since the beta was never intended for a public release. The whole ordeal sparked a bit of controversy and some believe it hurt the developmental process of the emulator. Your link will probably be taken down but that is why.

[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] LordBattleBeard:
Few points:

- Its an alpha, not a beta.

- It was leaked some time ago and is freely available with a quick google search.

- The developer of this whined like a drowning cat when it was leaked, probably with some justification as its not right to share without permission. If you don't have permission to use or distribute a free app, its no different than stealing a paid app.

Hey I have a question. Will this work for a Samsung Galaxy S2? How do you select games when you launch the app?:eek:
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] CornfedChris:
Why was this port canceled? I've read that the developer was upset that his earlier builds were being leaked and he seemed to be making progress on his code over 2 years ago. Why did he suddenly stop development on this? I've tried going to his blog and it seems to be shut down...

I realized that our phones simply don't have the processing power necessary to run most games, but some of the higher spec'd tablets and phones that are beginning to come out should be coming close to that. Just curious.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] BrianChase:
He claims to still be working on it actually. I'm not quite sure why he hasn't kept people updated but if I had to guess he either doesn't want to be pressured, doesn't trust people to look over his project after the various leaks, is busy with life outside of the project, or simply doesn't want to raise expectations to a point that can't be met; all of which I can respect.

[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] BrianChase:
To be fair the cut-scene is rendered with the game engine so there really shouldn't be any difference between it and actual game-play. I think we're seeing a presentation like this instead of actual game-play because having fingers obscure half the screen would make for a terrible tech-demo.
