The attached zip file has 2 exe files in it. Just unzip it and copy both files to your device. It's pretty obvious from the name what each of the files does, but you need to restart your device for the changes to take effect. (Please note - this will only turn off the default windows lockscreen. If you've got a different one installed this will not affect it.)
Basically, run lockscreen_disable and restart your device. You can run lockscreen_enable at a later date if you ever need to turn the lockscreen back on.
Hope it helps mate

You can either unzip the 2 files (both exe files) and copy them to your phone, or copy the zip file to the phone and unzip it there. Either way doesn't matter.
Once unzipped, you click the exe file of your choice and it runs, but you won't see anything change till you restart your phone.
I really threw them together quickly, which is why they're so basic, but they should do the trick though
Thanks John. I've been looking for ways to disable my Exchange email policy lockscreen.
Nothing I've seen and tried works so far.
Will your exe files work to disable/enable this Lockscreen?
Cheers

From Android, get a file explorer like ASTRO or Estrong, browse to the file - tap on it, it'll ask if you want to install it - ok and you're done.
Hello !
I did how you told me, but if I tap on it there is a message saying " no application found to open this file"
I have the same problem ... infact I dont know how to install Astro file manager...
I'm running Android from SD card on HTC Blackstone.
A little help will be apreciated.
Thanks in advance.

You can find it on the Market.
Look at your apps - there's a Market app - go in it cklick the magnifying glass to search and type ASTRO, it'll give you the search results tap on astro click install at the left bottom corner, it'll download it and install it, then click open and you have a file manager.
Don't know about kbatman99's problem, though, that's weird...
Probably the .apk is corrupt. I've got the same message when I tried a corrupt file. Downloaded it again and it worked.

Considering our FAQ's have all documented methods for installing APK's (our AndroidApps method, using a file explorer and adb install)? It's useless. Especially when considering the people who originally posted in this thread probably aren't still around, lol.

hey,
I wanted to extract "Torch" application from "Azure" Rom and few other applications. as Torch is the only working app which did really enable the LED for HTC Legend.
I actually opened the ZIP package to path \azure-1.0.1.zip\system\app where the applications are stored, every app comes in APK and OBEX files. I extracted few APKS, non of them worked.
I am seeking some help for extracting the application from the ROM.
Thanks in advance!
lamppu is a good LED torch. You need root to use it, look in market

I have looked in market, but it doesnt seem to exist there. However, do you know anyway to extract the application as working APK file?
Any other LED torches that works with LEGEND?
*EDIT: well, I found it, its named Lamppu. but anyway it didnt work, although my phone is rooted! why is that?
Try Extended Controls, there is a Torch Widget which worked on my HTC Legend. (NOTE:Root access Required For this very Widget)

If you find a ROM that has both .apx and .odex in the app-folder you will not get it to work by only extracting the .apk file.. You need both of the files in order to include them in another ROM..
Use a backup program like Titanium backup or MyBackup pro: they will extract for you.

That makes sense...but who would I merge the .apk and .obex together to be in one .apk file so I can install it?
Or maybe you know some way I can install these files?
Help would be really appreciated.

You mean like after loading the custom ROM, I backup the application I want then restore them after I load the custom I want?!
This is just long process of backing up your data then load custom rom, then back to the old rom, then root then restore...
I thought there might be easier and shorter ways?!
Any help would be appreciated. Gracias!
Anyone to help?????
try the kitchen method.
Scout around in the .zip to find the package you want, copy the .apk to your ADB directory and then, with the phone plugged in:
Code:
adb install [I]path-to-package[/I].apk

To be honest you've answered your own question. What you've done is the easiest way to pull an app from a ROM. So if your issue is something else it may be an idea to re-write your question (again, I know. Sorry).
I also apologise for mis-interpreting your question the first time 'round. I hope my help in this post is better.

Your help so much appreciated mate!
Well, the last conclusion I got to is, the .apk and .obex files are actually one file but they were divided to 2 files just to make them work better, so if you take the .apk file only it wont work as it will be missing the other .obex file.
Anyway, I am also guessing there is a way to merge the 2 files back, I read a little about "de-odex" but I couldnt really get the best help I could get. I will post the solution once I get to it.
Thanks again for your help mate!

I know it's a pain, but de-odexing the whole rom might help. Unless you already did this, in which case something is wrong with your download I imagine.

Hey guys!
I have a few apps im trying to install on my HTC HD2. However, every time i click on the cab setup files and try to run in my explorer window, it just launches the browser and then nothing happens...
how to i get the setup to run as normal executable files?
Thanks
Are you running them on your device?
yes Im trying to...
Shouldn't I?
Is there another way of running the programs?
Any insight or suggestion?????
Yeah you should be running them on your phone. And when you click on them, they open the browser? As in web browser?
Yes they do....I just saw a post on how to install xml and followed the guidelines to fix it....I was not supposed to extract the files which is what i was doing!!!

Yep. They look like zip files on your computer, but on the phone they show up as a cab. You got it!
Hello xda-developers ! What i have here are multiple zip files to be installed in CWM .
What are they?
They are zip files which allow one to change the default time it takes for the bottom button leds to timeout .
How do i install them?
Simple Follow instructions below
For those crazy folks who always want the keys lit up when the screen is on click me and follow install instructions
Install instructions:
1. Download the attached zip file.
2. Open or extract the newly downloaded zip file.
3. Select whichever time delay you want.
4. Copy to the ROOT of your sdcard.
5. Boot into recovery mode.
6. Choose "Install zip from sdcard".
7. Select "Choose zip file".
8. Select the time delay file you copied earlier.
9. Reboot and enjoy.
Now i created a bunch of them from the same file and didnt test every single file . If it doesnt work attach the zip file you used in recover stating your issues and i will get back to you
Thanks!

Just one question; is there a way to modify one of your files to increase the delay, or even so that the lights are on as long as the screen is on?

Sort of. It all depends on which kernel you are running. The only way to keep the lights off is by changing the permissions of the brightness file but some kernel's override permissions.

If it has android on it, and it has bottom lights, and it runs NAND not EMMC, then i would say give it a shot. its not going to break anything if it doesnt work. the only thing im concerned about would be the updater-script. but if its NOT EMMC then it should be fine.

Do you have a ROM.zip file lying around?
If so, open it, and browse to META-INF\com\google\android\updater-script and post the updater-script file
