There have been other threads about winrar and its abilities to mod files in an apk thats nothing new ive seen several threads about it and your totally getting off topic man taking it away from the initial point of my post which was to see if anyone knew about a current project to mod app drawer icons. I never said I've been successful at changing an icon for the most part b/c there usually indexed files thus when you go to change them and open the file it changes to much from gimp to photoshop. My question has anyone else actually been able to change them on any level? I've seen others mod apk files with a number of different tools. Not necessarily image files b/c you break the signature on that end thats why i brought up injection and its possibilities... If I had been successful you think I'd be posting this NO ID BE POSTING HEY I FIGURED IT ALL OUT!!!!!!!Got you nay saying me

Injection tools do work I have injected files into digitally signed game files on an xbox and not changed the digital signature so saying that injection doesnt work is a load of crap! I was trying to think about it outside the box thats all and you really wouldnt know unless you tested it in the same environment! And seeing as I don't know how apk signatures work thats why I brought it up.
[Android Themes] zHk3R:
If you change anything in an .apk the signature is removed.

When the signature is removed the mod becomes temporary

The next time you reboot or anything like that the .apk will be "corrupt" or unusable.

If you modify an .apk with WinRaR you still remove the signature.

EDIT: Unless the .apks are all installed to /system.

But if they're installed to /data they'll be corrupt.

- Mod app drawer icons? .. That's not what I got from the OP and I even asked you what you meant and you nodded saying what I understood from your post was right .. Gah ..
[Android Themes] Pneuma1985:
Yeah I want to be able to mod app drawer icons lol thats what I was talking about Now I know that adw has themes but most of them look pretty crappy and rom themes do change them and there is the apk tool posted on xda main page that resigns files without the same signature. What about a work around to take the signature out of the file and reapplying it how big is the encryption on the signature?

Oh and another question are the adw themes just an overlay of the file how does that work?

I may just try to edit a adw theme if I can get a good template using apktool just resign it without the same signature adding my own icons in would that work?
[Android Themes] zHk3R:
Sure. I just don't know of any tool that can modify an .apk without removing and re-signing it.

Haven't checked out anything regarding ADW, so I can't be much help. But dissecting a theme might be a good idea.
[Android Themes] Pneuma1985:
Yeah I tried that I resigned the file right and installed the apk now the apk works just fine after multiple reboots it's just it didnt change the file lol.. Even when i go back in and open the apk the file is changed just doesnt appear on my screen to be changed even after removing the data of the theme??? Cant understand it really. I know the file doesnt have the same signature I checked it.

here is the thread about apk tool http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=640592
[Android Themes] zHk3R:
Your icon.png didn't change? Are you sure you changed the correct one?

- Double check in /data that you don't have multiple .apks (Might be one of them is name apkname-1.apk).
[Android Themes] Pneuma1985:
No i just checked it and I'm positive it's the same file theres only so many pngs that are hdpi so it's basically like just look and find it in the res file no other similar images...And I even went to the extend of naming the apk something different so I would know it's installing the proper apk and still nothing on the image end has changed? And its basically pretty simple I'm trying to change the phone apk icon in the theme just as a tester hasnt worked thus far? phone apk still works even after resign but again nothing has changed. An after thought but another thing that would be cool is being able to edit .9 images without going to the ends of the earth or so it seems lol. And I notice people metamorphing which also seems to solve the problem of signed files? Just need more metamorphs
[Android Themes] ebichuman:
I have to admit that I've been playing around with this idea as well. I don't have any serious coding experience so I've been taking apart adw themes and theme engine themes for CM7. They manage to change app drawer icons without taking apart the apk and resigning.

It's possible to take a theme engine theme and just replace the icons you want (keeping the correct file name of course) before resigning but from what I've seen it will only make a difference to the icons included in the theme which are usually just gapps etc.

Only low tech workaround I can think of is modifying a theme that changes a lot of icons or editing one of the xml files so that you can add your own icons to the package. I'm not sure which file in an apk does this and I know very little about editing them in general so I gave up there. But from seeing iPhone themes it is a bit disappointing that for such a locked down system it's really easy to theme their icons. My rage about it keeps me up at night.

[Samsung Mesmerize] mcoleman2:
Does anyone have an updated kernel for EB16 2.2? The links are dead on the original thread.

I've got that one as well. PM me your email address and I will shoot it your way as soon as I get to a decent internet connection.

[Samsung Mesmerize] tuhoops:
I've updated to the EB16 2.2, but cannot install the voodoo kernel for some reason...when I reboot in recovery, I select install update.zip and it stops with the error message "can't mount dev/block/vold/179:9...what am I doing wrong?
[Samsung Mesmerize] bdemartino:
What instructions are you following? You should never have to apply update.zip (unless you are trying to manually flash ClockworkMod for eclair 2.1 or EA11 2.2 froyo)

You only need to download the EA11 voodoo kernel, place on your SD card and instead of choosing "install update zip" you choose "install zip from sd card" -> "select .zip" then find the EA11 voodoo kernel zip and flash it.

BTW, If i'm having to explain this to you then you haven't done near enough reading to be already trying to MOD your phone....and posting questions when you haven't taken those steps really pisses people off ;)
[Samsung Mesmerize] tuhoops:
Sorry, I reflashed the.tar cwm file and it worked. I did have to select update.zip to get from the Samsung recovery to the red recovery you're referring to. Sorry about the question, I appreciate the help.

And the 2.2.1 family come out of the woodwork. Why not skip straight to gingerbread? Seems like they are saving face and trying to get froyo right since all of the backlash ... maybe a pride thing? Or maybe gingerbread official is a lot further away than we hope

Don't believe pride/backlash/gingerbread are remotely relevant here - AFAIK this is the first (official) stock 2.2.1 firmware for Scandinavia, i.e. JPA. Hopefully full support for NO/SWE/DEN/FIN/ISL.

Hi!

Do any body know if i need to use a pit file while flashing the rom with odin? And if yes witch one? Thanks!
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] marzello:
I did not use any. Last time I used pit was when I downgraded from JV1 to JPU (512.pit). From there to JS5 to JS7 without a pit file.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] hassearup:
But if im on darky 9.3, should i do a repartion and use the pit file?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] marzello:
From there you may need to go through JPU or some other full firmware. I do not know if this JS7 is such. Remember also to remove all lagfixes etc. before you flash new firmware.

I also had one Darky's rom (9.2) on my phone - great rom, but small clitches with finnish language. When I then tried to flash to JS3 with Odin I got those Can't mount dbdata errors (as I got when I tried to flash directly to JS5 from JV1). Flashing JPU first with 512.pit and repartitionings on fixed the phone.
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] zbal:

[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] harvy:
As there's only NEE attached can't we just use ODIN to flash PDA file only?? Let's say I'm on JS5+JPY+XEN. Wouldn't be enough to flash just PDA file without PIT, re-partition and without modem/CSC? Is it going to work?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] [Ramad]:
I'm not sure if flashing PDA only does wipe /system before flashing or it does only replace files and directories...CSC files are located on /system. To be sure, flash PDA and the desired CSC. You can flash JS7 and XEN CSC.

And before you say it they are not temp files of my searches of the web,if they was the asian images would be a lot more raunchy,lol
