Have you tried changing thru rom manager? I have tried them all, they all worked perfectly. O just dont like them... Except for knock knock. That is my childrens favorite joke.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] TheBadBen:
Don't think all stupidfast kernels supported custom boot animations. What version are you using? I know 1.54 does.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] vegittoss15:
1.54, in fact, does NOT. If the boot animation has sound, it'll play that, but that's about it. Anything after 1.54 does, but it's kind of unstable.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] jdellingson7:
How are your trying to change it? through flashing a zip or placing it in the data/local with root explorer?
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] jdellingson7:
How are you trying to change it? With flashing a zip? or moving the bootanimation.zip into the data/local file with root explorer? I have had no issues with switching out bootanimations.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] massappeal16:
I was just changing it when picking out my ROM options thru blackhole. Is there something else I'm not doing? I want the haters gon hate one

DJ05 - SuperClean - Revolution - StupidFast
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] TheBadBen:
Which stupidfast? Kernels can stop custom boot animations from holding. I've flashed all of the boot animations available in Rom Manager(running 1.54 btw...). It's as easy as you think it is. If it's not working for you, then RM and the way you're doing it probably isn't the issue.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] Lieb909:
Here it is:

http://db.tt/E7vkN0R
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] vegittoss15:
What version of stupidfast are you running?

Sent from my stupidfast DJ05
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] massappeal16:
Idk how to check? I installed it about 2 weeks ago, its the stable one for DJ05
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] justin94:
How do I get this to work. I tried to flash with rom manager and it didn't work.

Edit. Got it working. Had to use root explorer and move it to data/local. Works like a charm and one of the guys i work with who love his iPhone, got to watch it boot for the first time

so fresh and so superclean.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] massappeal16:
OK I dl'd Root Explorer... can someone explain what to do now?
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] jiggaman508:
open root explorer, file the bootanimation.zip you downloaded, then copy and paste it into data/local

Edit:i pasted mine in system/media not data/local and it works for me
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] massappeal16:
OK thanks. Next question. Will a boot animation that I found in the X section work just the same for ours? Or do I have to dl a special one for ours? Would really like to have the haters gon hate one...
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] justin94:
That's in rom manager under jts section or son of skywalker

so fresh and so superclean.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] baron4406:
OMG that is hilarious! I'm keeping that one
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] massappeal16:
I reflashed the stable JT kernel... still no boot animation tho

DJ05 - SuperClean - Blackish - StupidFast
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] massappeal16:
What are you guys running on that have the boot animation changed?

DJ05 - SuperClean - Blackish - StupidFast
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] justin94:
I flashed one of the UV overclock kernals. Don't remember which one, its an older stable one

so fresh and so superclean.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] Powell730:
I tried flashing this via cwm and it just froze on installing the zip? I also extracted the .zip and pasted the files in the data\local file with no luck either.. Any ideas? I currently have a boot animation so I know others work..
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] justin94:
Just stick the while zip file in there, that's what I did. Then reboot.

Edit. Its cool, but I think ill switch again..... way to long IMO

so fresh and so superclean.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] ryanf:
Thanks, it worked great by moving the file. Thank you guys

Can Anyone post a mirror to this Boot Ani, the link is dead, and this seems like a must have for an apple hater like myself...
[HD7 General] pjcforpres:
I have been following along from afar the progression of WP7, and specifically the HD7 in the development community on here. It seems some big progress has been made recently by ansar.... but being that I have only been looking from afar, etc. I have a few questions that I feel are better asked then left semi answered:

1. Is ansar the only active developer on XDA right now for the HD7? I didn't see many other names popping up, and not consistently.

2. Does anyone know if any of the super names from WM are going to make the switch/ have made the switch? Dutty, olipro, commex, et al (sorry if I butchered names, and no offense if I missed names, nowhere near a complete list of the WM super stars).

3. Is there another website that is more active in WP7 development?

I have been lost in the world of android for the last year and a halfish, so haven't followed WM/WP7 nearly as closely as I used to when I had a kaiser, raphael, et al. I am getting ready to get my new phone for 2011 and seriously thinking about an HD7 (I work for a carrier and get a discount each year, and this is the only WP7 device available, plus pretty much refuse to get anything other than HTC).

I was able to get my wife to agree to me getting any phone I want (including getting a Nexus S outright if I want, or something along those lines)... so I am stuck between getting yet another Android phone, or taking a dip in the world of WP7... I have played around with the HD7 a lot at work, and have to admit I am very, very, very impressed with how smooth it is and the ease of use. I like to mix up my phones too since it keeps me fresh and excited to sell the different OS and helps me better qualify each customer for the right OS/ device.

I am rambling at his point a bit... I guess my main point is that is their a bright development future ahead for the HD7/WP7 or is the OS so locked down and limited that there the most we will get is side loading of apps and being able to load "unbranded" ROMs with little changes? I know this is a very young OS, et al, and am not trying to be downer at all on the work that has been done, just wondering if this is just the very tip of the iceberg, or if WP7 has gone the way of BB OS in that there is very little that can be done by the development community?
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] V@l€n:
XDA does not condone piracy.

Nor do we allow practices that teach you how to pirate.
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] tooktang:
3.6. is the very important
[Windows Phone 7 Apps and Games] ceesheim:
Is this the way to screw all the developers who made paid app's for wp7 ?

and is this the way for developers to abandon wp7 ?

you can hack the whole wp7 system but do not hack the marketplace .
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Droidzone:
Looks nice..

I got an error on one apk though..There seems to be an unhandled exception when the filename contains special characters..

Other than that, the program looks and works awesome..Will comment in detail after I decompile something major.. :)

Thanks//

One question:

The program shows smali files below the main prog, and on selecting the folder it opens in explorer. Would changing the smali be updated in the main prog on clicking Apply? Also a dialog to say that the file has been saved with changes, would be nice.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Anoniem100:
Tnx for the input, will look into the filename handling!

In the background it recompiles the whole thing, so changes to the smali code should be included in the application if you press apply.

About that dialog.... it's being grown in its incubator now..

Think it will hatch tomorrow :)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Droidzone:
Excellent! Thanks again, will pop in later to get the revisions :)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Anoniem100:
droidzone, tried out some weird combinations for the filenames but couldn't simulate your problem. Could you give an example?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] MadMax:
When i try to open it, Windows 7 says it has stop working???
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Droidzone:
I can do better.

My filename is Sample of Filename★(1.1).apk

Maybe the★ character is doing it :)

I've attached screenshots of the error.(Exception1.jpg)

Error Handle: The directory name C:\Users\Kpcc\AppData\Local\Temp\Sample of Filename?(1.1) is invalid.

I'm also attaching a text file with the actual error code given in the exception>Details. ( exception error text.txt)

The blanked out part is my actual username. Just an alphanumeric. Let it be Kpcc.

Edit: Got one more exception. This occured after inputting the ip of my phone in adb wireless and pressing enter. (Exception2.jpg, Exception2.txt)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Droidzone:
Maybe a missing .NET framework? The filename handle is the only error I'm getting in Win 7 Ultimate 64bit. And the filename I used is of course not "normal".. :)

By the way, a few more items on my wishlist:

1. Advanced Search (and replace?) for strings, with ability to use F3 for finding the next instance

2. Sorting the strings/variables in alphabetical and order of occurence, and another coloumn in the content tab with the name of the smali file in which the string appears.

3. Ability to Save As, without modding the source file.

4. Adb push via cable

5. Listing all the smalis in a tab, and ability to manual edit each one individually (Opening up Notepad would be fine. Maybe a Shell "Start file.txt"?)

Just a few wishes which would make it a powerful tool.. :)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Anoniem100:
@max63094 Hmmm, what could go wrong... think droidzone is onto somthing with his comment about .net framework.

I used the .Net Framework 3.5 to create the whole thing.

You can download this for free at Microsoft

@droidzone, tnx again for the input and will work on the file issue, nice wishlist btw!!

Stuff I get exited about :-)

I'm afraid I can't promise you all the requested features, have to check the required ammount of effort for some of them.

Have to balance my time, you know how it is whahaha ;)

Sorting alphabetical shouldn't be that big a problem, as for the save as and adb push via cable.

Will work on those first!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Droidzone:
Of course..I know how even the tiniest of things can go wrong in an effort which involves file i/o..I'm rather amazed that your Version 0.2 is so finished! A month ago, I was working on a Gui File Explorer for Android, with Adb and Fastboot commands..However time didnt allow me to complete it.. :D

Have you used apk manager? That's what I use when it comes to decompiling apks. Of course once it decompiles, all the rest of functions has to be done by hand. If you havent, check it out. It's the only other program which comes close to a gui. That uses batch commands of course.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Anoniem100:
@droidzone, Yeah, time sucks! ever finished a beta?

Funny you mention apk manager.

I'm fairly new to the android scene, but i bumped into apk manager yesterday.

Looks very promising, thinking of replacing the backbone with the crazy work of our dear friend Daneshm90.

Read some interesting stuff about the compression size in correlation to compatibility it could provide.

Maybe a little slider in the settings tab, giving you a simple tweaking mechanism.

Something like:

Big size (compatible) -------------------- Small size (less compatible)

Anyhow.... my brain is making overtime here ;-)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] daniello8:
hmm .. just took an app .. changed the icon and the title .. and uploaded it back to the phone.

App doesn't appear anymore.

What might have gone wrong?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Droidzone:
Not even a beta. :) It exists as several separate modules, which have to be joined together. Work stopped when I had to give my phone for service.

Via T3 phone of the year 2010 - HTC Desire
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Anoniem100:
Euhm... I renamed the title once and couldn't find it in its original place.

The app drawer will place icons alphabetical.

But maybe that was just me being stupid (this really happened whaha) and your app really vanished....

Is it just one app that has this behaviour?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Anoniem100:
To be continued...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] daniello8:
I only need a new icon for this one app .. so I didn't try others. Sorting is not the problem. I was hoping that someone gets a deja vu.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Anoniem100:
@daniello8, what method did u use for installing?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] daniello8:
adb push <appname> /data/app

Edit: Just tried with astro .. but install fails :-(

Edit2: The app icon displays correctly though *fwiw*
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Anoniem100:
O oh... anyone...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Anoniem100:
Hmm... probably has to do something with compression levels...
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Matrix44:
wau, this is great news.

Nice day,

[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Anoniem100:
Whoehoew.... I pushed out the new version!

Time to celebrate!!!
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] tommer56:
Mayby a little stupid question but...

I have java&framework but app won't start. It ask for java, then for apk and... it creates only backup folder with pointed apk. I've tried with several apk's and always the same issue.

What I'm doing wrong?

I've just downloaded v0.3 and it's work fine so issue above affect only on newest version.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Anoniem100:
Hmmm, will look into it tonight
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] anzo:
I have also the same. :confused:
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Bo0bz:
Same here! is it possible to download 0.3 somewhere?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Anoniem100:
Have uploaded a new release, can you try that one?

No fixes in that release yet, but I enabled logging and added some message dialogs proving you with information about what goes wrong.

Please feedback so I can fix any existing issue, tnx in advance ;)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Anoniem100:
You can download the old version of APK Edit (3.0) here.

But I recommend using the new 4.0a version, and provide me with feedback so I can fix issues.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] tommer56:
Version 0.4a prompts: "Problem with extracting the signature".
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Anoniem100:
Okay, can you take a look in: %UserProfile%\Appdata\Local\Temp\

APK Edit probably created 2 folders in it:

\[APK FILE NAME]

\[APK FILE NAME]Signature

Does the second one (the one with signature on the end) contain any files?

If so, how many files (including the files in \[APK FILE NAME]Signature\META-INF folder, if this one exists).

Normally it will create 4 files, if there are any more / less it will throw the error you encounter.

Could it be that the APK you are editing is odexed? If you don't know what that means, forget I ever asked ;)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] tommer56:
Both folders are empty and the signature one contains META-INF folder also empty.

As far as I can tell, my specific apk isn't odexed, but I've tried on various different apk's and alwas the same result (prompt&empty temp folders).
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Matrix44:
Hi,

I'm having the same problem. It creates two folders "Vending.v.2.3.3" which is empty and "Vending.v.2.3.3Signature" which includes an empty folder "META-INF" and that's it. It says "Problem with extracting the signature".

Matrix44
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Anoniem100:
Okay, working overtime on a fix here.

Give me some time, I will extend logging capability further and post a new version soon (in about 1 hour).

Btw, extracting original signature is only required for system APK's, so why extract it before running the program?

What was I thinking creating this feature whahaha...

Shame on me ;)
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Anoniem100:
Fixed it in 0.4b, try it out
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] tommer56:
Ha, something new:) -> sadly total crash (send report...) I'm afraid. Log indicates error: "System couldn't find specified directory" (+empty [in]temp apk folder).
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Anoniem100:
Does the log point out which directory it can't find?

Or otherwise, can you give me the last couple of lines of the log?
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] tommer56:

Running in Windows 7

Ok, I downloaded the zip file am I supposed to unzip it and find an executable file?

I found the APK edit.exe file, but windows couldn't find a program to run it with. Opening it with explorer just gave me the text of the file and now I can't figure out how to get explorer to not open it. So I opened a terminal and navigated to the directory where I extracted but APK edit.exe.config doesn't seem to be a valid command.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Anoniem100:
There is a file that's just called apk edit. That's the one you should run.
[Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]] Anoniem100:
You sure can, if its not in the edit translation window you can browse and find the Twitter text in the smali folder. Just change it there and it should work.
