hard to understand. I don't see how this is really easy.

Tell me what part is hard to understand and I'll try to explain :D

thanks :good::good:

Thanks :D

Wenn ich dir helfen konnte, lass doch ein Danke bei mir da:)
[LG Optimus Black] eXtremeDevil:
Does this prevent the app for updates? Also, I've changed an app's name and now it's refusing to install...
[LG Optimus Black] ykumar00:
Yes, you will not be able to update the app if you do this. And in will not install if you do not sign it. Just sign it and it will install.
[LG Optimus Black] eXtremeDevil:
Will the system even tell me that there is an update?

I signed it (after compiling) and still not working...
[LG Optimus Black] ykumar00:
No the system will not tell you. You will have to manually update the app. And I think the signing part of the program is broken. Use zipsigner 2 to sign it.
[LG Optimus Black] eXtremeDevil:
Is there a way to rename apps and still tell if there is an update available?
[LG Optimus Black] ykumar00:
The app links to the original play store page even after renaming. You can manually compare the version numbers, or use the app "App Update Notifier" to notify you. This works even if you rename.
[LG Optimus Black] Aggror:
dude i cannot rename Camera JB+ to Camera properly, as in that apk, both Camera JB+ and Gallery JB+ are stored. can you rename that for me, to Camera and Gallery respectively?

here is the apk inside the zip file...:)

Compiling

Hi thanks for the tutorial. i have some problems trying to compiling apk, i cant get it works.

Can you help me to learn what do I have to do using apk manager? :)

My problem is: After edit androidmanifiest.xml and save with notepad++ When i try to compile this is what happens in cmd dialog

Please Make your decision: 11 (to compile right)

Building Apk

"an error ocurred please please check the log (21)"

Press any key to continue...

I press 11 again.

dialog say "is this a system app (y/n)"

In this step if i press "no" nothing happens (vicious circle) but if I press "yes" (isnt a system app that i want to edit) ↓

"aside from the signature would you like to copy

over any additional files that you didnt modify

from the original apk in orden to the least

"# of error" (y/n) (now i dont really know what to do, so i press "yes" because if i press in "no" only extract the edited files just 15kb) ↓ so i press "yes" then

"Apk manager Extract all files bla bla

Everything is ok

In the apk manager folder u'ill find

a keep, Within it, delet everything you have modified

and leave files you havent. If you have modified any

xml file then delete reources.arsc from that folder as well

once done press enter

In this step, i dont really have any idea. Why I have to delete the files i edited? if i do that why the hell i modified in first step? if i delete in "keep folder" androidmanifies.xml. (file that i edited) apk doesnt will work. (because you cant delete androidmanifiest) or if i delete resources.arsc when install apk the name and icon dissapears and come to com.holo. etc.

Can you tell how you do to for decompile/compile properly thank in advance :)

Install Unmodified and Modified APKs at same time

What would I need to modify in the xml(s) to be able to install a second version of an apk... For example, I have two Instagram accounts and I want to have two versions installed (lets say Instagram and Igram) so I don't have to sign out all the time? Thanks in advance!
[LG Optimus Black] mokshjawa:
Can you change the package name with this program as well?

Thanks
[LG Optimus Black] ykumar00:
Change the package name, although it may not work. See this:

it would be easier to Use the "Multiple Profiles" Feature in Titanium Backup. This enables you to Keep two sets of data for a single app and use a widget to quickly switch between each profile. Easy, and fast.

Of Course.
[LG Optimus Black] ykumar00:
I have no idea about apkmanager, but this tut works fine. Try it.
[LG Optimus Black] Sagar_Patel:
APK Rename

can all types of apks be edited/renamed? i got only file type output in compiled output directory after signing the apk. Also, most of the apks like Go launcher, ES File Explorer, MixZing etc.. can not be even found in compiled output directory.

Thanks in advance.

Best Regards,

Sagar

Does it mean that we can install same apk multiple times with different different names?

Like we have 2 or more whatsapp installed same time in one handset?

Even assuming you manage to do it without messing up the file, which is not a simple task, there will still be code referring to the package name, so the app will crash.

Yes but change package for data working

sooooo.... i want to have multiple versions of the same app running. in one post someone said you cannot do it, and then in another it is said to be easy as changing the package name, which doesn't work.

in order to do this you have to comb through the code and find the references to the package install name?

can anyone help me out?

I am not versed in this at all, just usually figure things out by clicking and reading.

any help would be appreciated.
[LG Optimus Black] sonofbatman:
Please, pretty please?

I am way below noob, so I can not figure out how to change package name of a apk file., Even with this tutorial I cant do it. So Pretty please can someone please do the work for me? All I ask is someone to create 3 alternate apps for 2 games. Change 3 G.I. Joe Battleground apk files to Alt1, Alt2, Alt3. So i can have 3 different log-in's on the same device. Rage of Bahamut i would like done the same please.

As for the person who does the work, I hope you play the same games & if you do I would gladly friend you & help with events as payment.

Please & thank you for your time!

[Transformer TF300T General] tjy8tim:
Warning: So far it's a one way trip to ICS, cannot return to JB. If it bricks your tablet, I'm not responsible for any damage.

There are two ways to flash an official update file.

1) Extract the .zip within the downloaded .zip file and place it in internal root directory.

2) Extract the .zip within the downloaded .zip file and place it in sdcard root directory and rename it EP201_768_SDUPDATE.zip

If you use method 1, you'll see an notification in the notification bar prompting or upgrade/downgrade. If you don't, try rebooting it. If it still doesn't show up, try method 2.

If you use method 2, you'll have to reboot into bootloader, selecting RCK with volume up button and it'll flash.

To downgrade into TF700's ICS rom, make sure you are on the latest 10.4.2.18 for TF300. Next, downgrade to 10.4.2.9 (can be found in TF300's forum) using either method 1 or method 2. Next, you downgrade into 9.4.5.30 (can be found in TF700's forum) using either method 1 or method 2 again.

If you happen to have flashed the wrong file, don't worry, it doesn't brick. It'll simply have an error of "signature mismatch" and restart (however your tablet would have been reset by this point).

After it's in 9.4.5.30 you can use the 1-Click-Root method that can be found in TF300's forum and gain root access.

My original goal to downgrade to ICS is hoping that I can spoof the MAC address to fool the unlock tool and allow me to unlock (I know my MAC address that is on ASUS's server file, which is different than what it is on my tablet), however that is not working out...

I have not been able to flash back to any of TF300's JB rom or TF700's JB rom after getting into the 9.4.5.30 ICS rom. I keep getting the following error...

Installing update...

Finding update package...

Opening update package...

E:resource mismatch, it's not mdpi!

E:check resource fail

SD Installation aborted

So right now I'm currently stuck on TF700's ICS rom.

I don't know if any of this is helpful to people. If it is to you, good for you. If you know how to fix the problem for me, let me know too, thanks.
[Transformer TF300T General] k1chy:
Did you try to replace the build.prop file from TF300 ICS and try flashing the TF300 or TF700 JB ROMs?
[Transformer TF300T General] jimpmc:
Unfortunately, I don't believe this will help with allowing the generation of NVFlash files if you manage to get the TF300 to the TF700 9.4.5.30 ROM. NVFlash doesn't appear to work with 9.4.5.30 either. 9.4.5.30 most likely has the bootloader signature required by the JB bootloader, but thus prevents using the androidroot.mobi NVFlash one.

But maybe this can help people root without unlocking if there is a way back to the TF300 stock updates.
[Transformer TF300T General] tjy8tim:
well I tried and replaced the build.prop

with TF300's ICS one... now it won't start at all anymore lol.
[Transformer TF300T General] k1chy:
My bad :(

Think you have to push ICS of TF700 to Internal memory via ADB and reflash.

That should bring your tablet back. I would wait for senior members to comment to avoid mucking up further :(
[Transformer TF300T General] tjy8tim:
lol it's fine no worries
[Transformer TF300T General] msd24200:
Ok will this downgrade revert the bootloader so that nvflash can be used? I had just bought my tablet and jumped the gun updating to JB. Had I read about the bootloader change I wouldn't have upgraded until after I had done all the nvflash work!
[Transformer TF300T General] temp9300:
so, does this method work properly or not?:confused:
[Transformer TF300T General] l33ch0r:
I'm anxious to know as well.

Just bought it recently and this official firmware kind of sucks - but I won't unlock and root just yet, knowing, that nvflash can be possible.
[Transformer TF300T General] tjy8tim:
sorry it doesn't work.
[Transformer TF300T General] msd24200:
Thinking of exchanging mine for another just for the nvflash!
[Transformer TF300T General] l33ch0r:
AW: [Guide] TF300 JB downgrade to TF700 ICS to gain ROOT access.

Don't know if that was that good of an idea. The older devices of the tf300t have ics bootloader so they of course can achieve nvflash - but the newer devices didn't only get fixes in software I assume.

Read about ghost touches and so on which apparently doesn't happen on the newer devices.

Just get anyone you know to sign this petition so Asus might give us poor devils stuck on jb a chance to achieve nvflash :)

[Transformer TF300T General] msd24200:
The one I would exchange for should have ics on it.
[Transformer TF300T General] abburci:
So if i downgrade to tf700 ics i can't return to a tf300t rom? If yes there is an alternative method to downgrade from jb to ics?
[Transformer TF300T General] tobdaryl:
tjy8tim

You are obviously getting an assert error when you try to allow stock recovery to install 10.4.2.9. Have you considered removing the assert and trying to install 10.4.2.9?
[Transformer TF300T General] abburci:
News? Did you try to update from tf700 ics to tf300t jb trought fastboot?
[HTC Sensation] krystyuc:
Hello , i'm planning to buy HTC Sensation XE white in 1 month and whant to ask you're opinion.Should i buy it or you recommand other Htc?

1.Installing Rom.I've serch and found http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1782009 is it good or i need other rom?

-roms are like a firmware that u use it and navigate on it and see it on youre phone.

2.Kernel http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1562027 good or not?i whant the feature that allows you to unlock it by touch like in this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=jri2BMQHHrs

-kernel is the soft that allows the phone to comunicate with the soft,right?

3.Sense???This is only avalible on HTC and it allows you to customize youre phone.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1640467 or other one?

All Htc Seansation rom,kernel,sense works with HTC Sensation XE?

And the most important question how do i do all of this???I've been working with iPhone for the last 2 year jb them and installing iOS,baseband,etc but on Android i have no clue....

When i serch for game i get them from http://apptrackr.cd/ is the an android site like that?

iAP is an cydia resource that allows you buy in game cash or unlock items android has something like that?

How do i root it?Universal root?

What are the combinations to get in the...how u call it....when the phone boot sercret menu that allows you to flash and do other things.What should i replace it with?or is it already included in the rom..or kernel?

So what other things should i know about?And what u recommand me?

Ty and sorry for my bad english.

After serching for more.....

1. Ok so before doing any thing i need to make a Nandroid backup like in this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vNVW4wMQPpY

The secret menu is called Bootloade do i need to replace with other one?

2. Custom ROM installation:

Download the ROM of your choice. And follow the specific flashing information for that specific ROM. Generally the method is as follows.

a. Download your custom ROM.

b. Check the MD5 checksum of the downloaded file to be 200% sure that your downloaded zip is not damaged.

c. Copy your ROM on the root of your SDCARD.

d. Boot into Recovery.

e. Do a nandroid backup. If anything goes wrong

f. Do a Superwipe.

g. Install your ROM.

h. Install the specific radio if required.

i. Reboot. Wait at leat for 7 to 10 Minutes for firstboot.

j. Enjoy your cutom ROM.

Do i do this even for Kernel and Sensation?

To enter bootloader i do this "Switch off your phone. Pull back the battery. Wait a minute. Put your battery back in the phone. Press POWER+VOLUME – Key together. Wait till the bootloader is ready." ??

3.Bootloader unlock..for custom firmware to work http://myandroidexperiments.blogspot.ro/2012/04/how-to-unlock-boot-loader-for-htc.html
[HTC Sensation] hunt:
Seems like U r well prepared...for Sensation XE

See I'm trying to solve all ur doubts

1) ROM= Android OS+ UI (User Interface, Like Sense, Touchwiz etc.)

Any ROM is a choice of your Interest, Flash it and stay with it, If you Like stick with it, Otherwise change it..

All ROMs are good, Its just a matter of your Choice...:)

2) Kernel= A Bridge between your AndroidOS to Your Phone's Hardware..means Kernel manages all the drivers of Video and Audio and all ..

The feature that you are talking about is S2W-Swipe To Wake..To Unlock the Phone,U have to Swipe from Home to Search button...(Majority of the HTC custom kernels support it)

Thanx to XDA devs...:)

3) Sense Customization...ohhh there is a whole new story...Lots of Customization than your Thoughts,That Thread is Not enough,The Whole new world is there...:)

Yes All ROMs of HTC Sensation/XE/4G will work for HTC Sensation XE...

Abt Android Apps:: In Apple, I know u need JB, But in Androd u even don't need JailBreak...u'll get 90% of paid apps by Google Search..It will take a time but U'll definitely got them from somewhere..Cracked versions...U'll get all the 3D games free with Data..Its just depend on your Search Query :D

For Rooting/Custom Recovery/Unlocking bootloader/flashing Firmware, You will be given Lots of tutorials in Very easy manner and u'll get 24x7 help from milions of XDA members :)

After this phase ROM flash will b there...All ROM will include BusyBox and Super User for handling your SuperUser...

Your Kernel will be flashed at the Time of the ROM installation,But if you wish to change the kernel, u have to flash it in same manner via Recovery..Kernel will flash quickly as it is a small part..

For Flashing the ROM, your Steps are correct..

For Bootloader, U can switch off the cell..No need to pull out battery...Just hold Volume down+Power button continuously...Or If its not working then U have to pull out the Battery..

FYI: Majority of the ROMs have a facility to directly Jump to the Bootloader/Recovery from the Power Menu

Edit:: I haven't seen any Videos nor any URLs which u posted, Cause I'm on my Cell Phone..

Conclusion:: I strongly Not Recommending HTC Sensation XE at this moment, Cause its almost outdated..And Still HTC has not annouce any News about JellyBean upgrade, And Better to jump to One Series,If you can afford One X+, It will be Best Option :) And One X and One S,Evo 4G are the Best as compare to XE

Abt me:: I'm enjoying My Sensation a lot(Thanks to ViperS ROM), Just because I bought it before 10 months and Now I can't afford any other device, I'm just a Student..But Honestly I wish I can buy HOX

But Happy with What I have :)

I installed CM10.1 but photosphere is not available in the camera app. Does anybody know what I need to do to enable it? I currently have the 4.2 camera with photosphere enabled installed alongside the camera app that comes with CM10.1.

Photosphere isn't included yet in the latest cm 10.1 nightly. There are other workaround but the app seems to be unstable sometimes.

Hi peeps. Came across a way to lower Wi-Fi signal strength to save power. Having a few problems, but came across another thing that said not all hardware can be adjusted. Before I tinker with this anymore, does anyone know if our Wi-Fi chip can be adjusted?

http://jhanford.wordpress.com/2011/10/03/lowering-wi-fi-transmit-power-in-android/
[Asus Transformer TF700] jtrosky:
Nice find! When I started, the utility reported that the TX-power was 1496dBm. When I told it to set it to 4dBm, it lowered it to 398dBm, so it does seem to be working (basically, you divide the number that the utility is reporting by 100).

It seems that the TF700 defaults to 14dBm and I just lowered it to 4dBm.

Now, whether or not it's *really* doing anything, I'm not sure. I'll have to do some further testing. But, this does look promising!

Thanks for sharing this. I'll report back after I do some further testing.

What problems are you having?

EDIT: FYI, it seems that 14dBm is the max and 1dBm is the min for the TF700. I have mine set to 1dBm right now. Will try to determine if it actually makes a difference next... :)
[Asus Transformer TF700] redheadplantguy:
I finally managed to beat mine into submission, and shows reduced values now. Thanks for confirmation on that. Article showed values much lower than my tab reported. I'm also running at 1

Update: applied this to my phone as well. Added bonus, it drops power while hot spotting, so should use less power. If your tethered, your seldom more than a few feet away. Full power is a waste.

Read of an app called Wi-Fi tf power that supposedly switches power. I can't get it to work. All choices revert you back to default. (well, it does me) and I have to force stop it, reset permissions, and decrease it through term emulator.

Please keep me posted on your findings, and I'll do the same.
[Asus Transformer TF700] sbdags:
Interested to see the results of this :)
[Asus Transformer TF700] redheadplantguy:
When I applied this to my phone then hotspot, it truly DID decrease broadcast signal. I lost hotspot connection to phone as I got about 20 feet away.

Oh, by the way, I'm running CleanRom inheritance 3.0.4 with these mods I'm trying

GREAT FREAKIN JOB! I love it
[Asus Transformer TF700] jtrosky:
Running CleanROM Inheritance here too, of course - is there any other ROM for the TF700?!?! :)

Unfortunately, I can't say that I've noticed any difference, regardless of what I set this setting to on either my TF700 or my Nexus 7. The Nexus 7 also defaults to 14dBm and when I set either to 1dBm, I don't see any difference on my wireless router - the router runs DD-WRT, so I can see the actual signal strength coming from each device, which should get much lower when going from 14dBm to 1dBm.

I also have an Android phone, but haven't messed with it yet - I've gotten so spoiled by the TF700 keyboard dock and the larger screen size of the Nexus 7, that I try not to do much typing on the phone anymore! :) In fact, it's not even unlocked (it's a HTC 3D and requires some hardware modification to unlock, I think - never really looked into in that much to be honest).
