[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] OSully:
I've been trying to theme Google voice and Gmail. I pull the apk with adb, add a new notification icon and push it back to the phone. The app then disappears. What am I doing wrong?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] rciucki:
Are you signing the apk?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] OSully:
Yeah... no. Good call.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] OSully:
Well, I pulled it, decompiled with apktool, added the icon, compiled it, signed it, and pushed it to my phone and it still doesn't work (google voice). Any suggestions?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] SynisterWolf:
Are they just PNG? If they are you can just use 7zip and just drop them in.

[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] SynisterWolf:
Or you can make an metamorph file.

Sent from my slutty assistant.(HTC Incredible)
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] OSully:
That's what I had tried. I pulled the com.google.android.gm-1.apk from my phone, added the modified png, and then pushed it back. After a reboot, the app was gone.

It's pissing me off.

Same thing happened with metamorph. The icon was changed, but then when I rebooted the app was gone.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] SynisterWolf:
ok pm me the apk and the png and i will make a flashable zip for you.

or send me the png and i will fix it. the gmail apk you speak is not the correct one. the correct apk is in system/app gmail.apk
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] james_pnut:
With the current gmail update they sent it to data/app and not to system/app anymore. I did what he did and my successfully was changed. I used root explorer to copy paste to my sd card then 7zip the file and copy paste back to data/app. Make sure your using 7zip.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] OSully:
I was using winrar... didn't know if it'd make a difference. I'm going to give it a shot, and if I'm still unsuccessful, I'll send over the pngs and the apks.

Thanks!
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] james_pnut:
Here is my modified apk if you want to replace yours with this one. Just copy paste to data/app and it should replace it. Use root explorer. Let me know if it is successful.http://dl.dropbox.com/u/13697779/com.google.android.gm-1.apk
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] SynisterWolf:
winrar unpacks it i think. with 7zip you just

right click the zip

hover over 7zip and click on open archive

navagate to the folder with the png's you would like to swap

and drop them in.

(did not know that the moved gm. For some reason i have gmail.apk still in system/app)

looks like it was because i had a themed GM....
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] sunder74:
Actually all market GApps are in data/app I just use app monster(free on market) save the apk to SD then mount pull the apk from my phone use winrar to drop my edited images in finally use the apk manager tool too optimize, zip and sign. Then put it on your SD and install normally. If u push the market gapps to system they wont update.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] OSully:
Okay, it didn't work AGAIN. I copied the apk in root manager, and pasted it to my sdcard. Mounted the sdcard on the computer, opened the apk in 7zip, dropped in the png file, unmounted the sd card, copied the apk and pasted it back to data/app in root manager, rebooted and... didn't work.

Here's the files.

Am I supposed to be changing permissions or something? I don't know what I'm missing. I never had an issue with the Gmail.apk in the system folder.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] james_pnut:
i just uninstalled gmail. Re installed it. Made sure I was mounted r/w in root explorer and replace the apk with my modified one. It took so I dont know what your doing wrong.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] OSully:
I dropped yours in, james.... still didn't work!
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] SynisterWolf:
here is a flashable zip if you still cant get it to work.

sorry i got my zip's mixed up. im uploading the right one now.

(please do a nandroid before flashing)
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] james_pnut:
Synister that is the htc clock widget.apk and also mine is messed up now. Sorry for the confusion sully. If you can get this fix synister your the man
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] SynisterWolf:
sorry. i was working on another zip for someone else. and i used the same update.zip template but named it wrong.... sooooooo sorry. long week.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] OSully:
I cannot believe this **** won't work, it makes no sense. I even deleted the gmail.apk in the system directory.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] SynisterWolf:
its still now working... even the zip. (its fixed by the way.)
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] OSully:
Oh well... I guess it'll be a full wipe and start from scratch tomorrow. Something must be interfering. I wanted to give skyraider a try anyway.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] sunder74:
themed Gmail...

Here is the themed notification version of the newest gmail app...Optimized, zip aligned and signed just drop it on your sd and install like normal. Make sure to uninstall all previous versions before installing.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] OSully:
That worked. Any chance you could do one for google voice?

Oh, and THANKS!

How'd you go about making that?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] james_pnut:
Genius. It worked thats for the hard work sunder. I appreciate it.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] OSully:
Here's an icon if you're up for it :p
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] sunder74:
Do you just want the stock notification to look like the app icon?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] OSully:
Yupper..

Is there a thread with instructions on how to make a side load apk?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] SynisterWolf:
Was it the wrong apk?

Sent from my slutty assistant.(HTC Incredible)
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] sunder74:
GoogleVoice

Here's GV again optimized and such be sure to uninstall all previous versions. Lemme know if it works.

Cheers,

Chris
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] sunder74:
I don't know...maybe they were taking the com.etc from data and not the apk in its preinstalled package?
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] OSully:
Works like a charm. Thank you so much. If you get a chance and want to pm me a quick tutorial to do this I'd appreciate it. I know how to use apktool and all so I should be okay with a general overview.
[Droid Incredible Themes and Apps] sunder74:
No worries...sent you a pm on how to do it.

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] moegdaog:
all i see here nowadays are tweaks to manila n sense and changing around winmo 6.5..wat happined to new utilities and useful apps..devs arent making anything new? most apps are even roll overs from the tp2 and tilt just upgraded
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jsmccabe78:
hey.

so your post irkes me. at first i was going to ignore it but here i am.

you see, not only do you lessen the work of the people providing "tweaks" (like you are disdainful at people's free work) but you ignore all the fantastic work being done here and just sweep it all under the rug as being "roll overs" and "simple upgrades." really? there are a ton of apps (widgets?) in this forum and the windows mobile general forum that are fantastic...and free.

yes, free.

and provided because people want to share. nothing more.

not enough for you? start developing.

bored of all the tweaks and changing of winmo 6.5? start making some art.

what do you expect with your post? people to run to you and ask you what specific things they can make for you? how they can appease your wants? how about next time you use someone's work, say thanks or buy them a cup of coffee if you can. but don't sit there complaining that what is provided free to you is not enough.

or even better, contribute.

Wonderful reply, don't think anyone could have said it better! I thank the day I stumbled across XDA and hope to someday win the lottery to repay all of the developers here who made me fall in love with first my diamond and now my HD2. I have huge respect for all that you guys/gals do and am eternally grateful for all that I have learned from you over the years.

Try not to let guys like this get under your skin and please oh please keep on modding!

Tons of respect 2 each and every xda member who posts innovative ideas,tweaks,applications and mods here...

I heard all the developers of "real" apps where on strike until XDA gave them a better pension plan :p

@ the op, tried android?? they have loads of "real" apps......

not like all these imaginary apps you find floating around here.........

I feel like Ive let myself down by posting in this thread but needed to vent.

where have you been hiding lately? ;)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] salonluden:
dudes - no need to cut him down.

But easy answer: no one here (including myself) wants to bloat up there awesome HD2 with apps that you use once and forget about forever, or apps that just don't do anything (ask any iPhone/Android user how many apps they actually use and how many games they actually use - and I mean use like a calender or something - the answer will be close to 5 and 2 respectively).

So for the awesome HD2 instead of making 2 million things that no one will use we make widgets, tweaks and customizations so that what we does use will run faster, easier access, smoother, and when our friends take our cells they will be immediately awed by the amazingness of the homescreen that radiates from an abnormally large screen :D

[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] salonluden:
Lol that's so true... although I have been getting a little bit more lenient because now that I have the invisible lock (in my Geek Redesign link below) it's actually super funny watching people just look at the lock screen and not being able to open it. And of course they get so much more annoyed when I tell them that they haven't even unlocked the phone after they compliment the nice looking "home" :D

[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] StrangeShadow:
I have tried the BsB Tweaks Option and CrackWhore's Snooze option, but both cause the notification that pops up on the screen to revert back to the older WM look, verses the newer TocuhFlo3D and Sense notification look.

Anyone know of a way to add snooze options, but keep the nice Touchflo/Sense look for notifications?

Thanks
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] cajunflavoredbob:
I could be wrong, but it sounds like you're going to need to modify manila files to get the notification boxes to look like Sense boxes.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] StrangeShadow:
I mean to keep the original notifications "look" that pop up.

Their only problem is they don't offer snooze options, they just give you the 5 minute snooze or dismiss option.

But, once you add snooze options, the actual notification pop ups change to the old WM look, verses the newer look.

Just wondering if anyone has found a way to keep the new notification look and add the snooze option.

May have to modify files to do this, like you said.
[Touch Pro2, Tilt 2 Windows Mobile General] cajunflavoredbob:
Now I understand what you mean. Yes, modding the snooze options breaks the lua code for the Sense notify commands. This would require you to mod the lua file instead of the manila file. I'm not certain which one controls this, however. Perhaps someone in the Chef Central forum could be of more help.
[Droid Incredible General] HoochieCoo:
Since this morning, when I boot it will get stuck on that red eye screen. I've waited several minutes and it won't go on.

So I end up pulling the battery and usually that works. Sometimes I have to do this twice.

Not sure how to even diagnose this.
[Droid Incredible General] ptsmith24:
Are you rooted or completely stock?
[Droid Incredible General] HoochieCoo:
Rooted. I just tried restoring a backup from 3 days ago and had the same problem. So I restored back to the latest. When it finally does boot, it seems to run great.

I have a backup from further back, just not sure it will make a difference. Might give that so shot too.
[Droid Incredible General] HoochieCoo:
I really think it is booting all the way, and just doesn't stop displaying the boot animation.

The reason I think that is because at some point the power button makes the screen go on and off, and there is haptic feedback in the same places where my lock screen tabs are.

At any rate, and this sounds unbelievable, but I pulled the sd card out and it booted normally. I put the card back in, and now it seems to boot normally. Can't explain it.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] anko184:
First of all i think that your post is in the wrong place but....

Now you can download this official htc rom image, rename it to PB99IMG.zip and put it in your sdcard.

After that holding down volume down button power on you phone and follow the on-screen comands.

Be aware that your phone will be unrooted again and stock as when you bought it.

I also want to advise you to wait a little if anyone knows some other way to help you.

If not then go ahead with my solution.

[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Tribulattifather:
I am currently purchasing an HTC Leo (Tmo 1024) and I have found the latest ROM/Update for it with manila packages - builds being labeled in the photo in the attachment.

I was wondering two things:

What is the hierarchy of Manila/Sense?

(What is the order of Manila/Sense; Max Sense/Max Manila)

&

What version of Manila does this image stop at?

--

(Basically what I mean is I don't like the way Max Manila, now Max Sense, looks; I am a fan of how this image looks. So I am wondering what version to update my manila to before I reach what Max Manila/Sense looks like.)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mwalt2:
I don't really know what you're trying to get at. Sense is just another name for manila/tf3d. They started calling it sense when they put the weather on the homescreen as far as I know (sense 2.1 and 2.5). Max manila is not made by htc, but is a mod made by someone here at xda (like cookiemonster making CHT). Older versions of sense are 19xx and newer versions are 20xx. Your picture will be included in any sense 2.5 version from the HD2/TP2/D2. The only versions that are different are the ones from Oboe, which have an RSS feed on the home page and 4 smaller quick links (as well as 12 or 16 when you swipe up...can't remember for sure). Sense 2.1 will be just like tf3d with weather on the home screen.
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] Tribulattifather:
^>^

Thanks for the info.

Seems like the version of Manila I'll be cooking with will work just fine for what I need then, right?

(According to my earlier attached image>)
[Windows Mobile Apps and Games] mwalt2:
You can read the first post of this thread to get an idea of what the required packages are to cook sense.
[Android Software Development] Rootstonian:
All of a sudden, my database copy is not working; not on the emulator or on the device. If I push the database to the emulator database directory, it works fine (because the db is there and therfore, bypasses the copy). But I need the database to be installed from assets folder on apk installation.

I'm sure we've all seen the DataBaseHelper class that will copy from assets to /data/data/packagename/databases. It worked 100 times before and then today, it's bombing in "CopyDataBase" method.

I've Googled for hours and hours trying to find it to no avail....if anyone has any ideas, I would appreciate it :)

TIA

<Edit> I just went into emulator and deleted my database; ran program and got forced stop and logcat shows "Error Copying Database". If i go into shell and look, the database was created, but with the copy fail, no data. Like I said, if i push the db, it's fine.

What I'm most curious about is the GPS, since Samsung did design the phone does it have the same issues with GPS as the Galaxy S does..

I know we probably won't know until next week, but still curious.
[Nexus S General] slowz3r:
I am pretty damn sure that the issue has been resolved, i mean it would be absolutely stupid if they didnt
[Nexus S General] presence06:
I'd hope so, but then again. The original I9000 Galaxy S phone shipped with broken GPS and then when they came to the US, they had broken GPS...
[Nexus S General] DKYang:
But in the end, software tweaks fixed most of the GPS issues if you had a rooted phone.
[Nexus S General] demo23019:
Yea my vibrant GPS is fine now but when on jfd firmware GPS and compass were faulty but was only software related.

But even now with everything working I noticed that my GPS and phone antenna interfere cuz putting my phone in flightmode makes GPS much more accurate so I'm thinking this s why they replaced the antennas.

But yea GPS should be fine on NS
[Nexus S General] Superfrag:
The GPS chip in the NS is different from the SGS series. It'll work just fine.
[Nexus S General] demo23019:
Acording to FCC they changed the antenna

http://www.intomobile.com/2010/11/29/samsung-nexus-s-fcc/
[Nexus S General] Anderdroid:
Yes they changed the antenna. The Vibrant's GPS works anywhere, hard-ware wise. It was just some of the software builds that it didn't work on.

I have got into the reboot loop on both of my tablets. Follow the instructions on the main page of the TNT-Lite page. Roebeet has a few steps in there for getting out of this situation. Both times I have had to do the repartition of the flash to get out of the reboot situation.
