Patched Stock Browser with UserAgent Settings! <persistent> <zipaligned> [root] - Galaxy S I9000 General

Patched Stock Browser with UserAgent Settings! <persistent> <zipaligned> [root]
Check this out... (pics)
For any 2.2 firmware.
Based on Browser from JPO.
TheVisitorX from the android-hilfe.de forum succesfully followed my instructions:
-Download JPO and push it to /system/app/ , before make a backup of Browser.apk and Browser.odex and then remove them
or
- download my app (SGSTools.apk) and select last menu item.
(progress bar is fixed)
PS: It's the normal stock browser, but it has the useragent preference from the debug menu, in addition the useragent is always checked! Not only when debug is enabled.

could you please repatch the JPH browser? md5 is different

The 2.2 (taken from JPC) is not working under JPH?
I'll patch the JPH browser when I flashed to JPH

it is working, but the JPH one performs a lot better on flash sites

Here it is from JPH
You can install it manually like the instructions above, or push the .zip to /sdcard/sgstools and run the script with my app. (You will need version 3.6 or higher! The version is displayed in the menu)
Edit: now zipaligned

thx for the JPH!

Thank you for this.

Is there a fix for JPK? I would love to be able to change user agent in JPK, thanks!

Also when I try to uninstall or install anything over adb, I get the "read-only file system" error, permission denied, etc. I can't seem to make these changes over ADB. I am lag fixed, does that have anything to do with it? How can I get adb to work correctly?

I think, JPK comes with the same browser as JPH, so simply take the JPH version.
You have to mount /system rw before you can change the browser, use this command:
busybox mount -o remount,rw /system

Thanks working very well. Nice to be able to view full flash sites instead of being dumped on mobile ones when I don't want it!
For the learning of everyone, can you please tell us what you did to the browser to enable the UA String setting? It would be useful as new builds come out and you aren't around to fix it for us

Thank you so much, you save my day !

I decompiled the sourcecode of Browser.apk and added a few code lines, so that the user agent is always checked, not only when debug is activated.
Next step is adding a useragent setting to the preferences.
(I could simply copy that from the 2.1 debug preferences )

Any chance you could whipped up a fixed version of the browser from ZUJP2? IMO this is a way better ROM with a much better-performing browser and TouchWiz just flies instead of being a mess like JPK. If you could make the fixed one that would be amazing, if not I suppose I could experiment doing my own although I wouldn't know where to start =P
EDIT: SEE NEWER POST BELOW

Anyone tested with eclair?
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App

I tested it before when I was on JM8, works like the JPH version.
Currently I'm trying to add a fullscreen setting..

Now that JPM/JP6 are out, do you think you could make a new version of the fixed browser? Thanks!

yes please, update fix for jpm, thanks

Now that full source is out for JPM will it be easier to make this change? Forgive my noobishness but I am willing to do this myself I just have no idea how

Flashlight Preinstalled in Vodafone Froyo release

Hi,
Can anybody extract the APK for the LED Torch app preinstalled in Froyo?
I saw that the one include with Froyo on the Desire works with a Desire with Eclair. (But doesn't work with my Legend) So I would like to check if the one included in Froyo for the Legend will also work with the Legend on Eclair.
The package name is com.htc.flashlight
Thanks!
U don't have to wait....
Try this APP: Lamppu
But first u have to (Soft)root your Legend with (Universal Androot)
After that, install superuser APP. Now start Lamppu and allow superuser rights...
Now u can use your LED as torch.
Tried it self on my legend v.2.1
Sure about the name?
The only thing I found in the Modaco ROM was Flashlight.apk
Then again...I have no clue what I am doing
above file is not working
Yeah it doesn't install
Ok gentlemen, one more try.
Extracted, re-zipped and signed the apk using apk-manager.
Removed the system app from my phone using TitaniumBackup and installed the signed apk through Root Explorer.
Works for me. No guarantee that it does for any other ROM or Android version though.
Sorry for the video but I just found out how to do screencasts and love it
Its German but you should be able to understand it.
Notice that it is now uninstallable and listed as downloaded app.

This one is installing correctly, and also loading correctly, but it doesn't light up the LED.
So it isn't working
Are you phones rooted?
First of all, you have to have deodexed apk and second, you need to set right permissions in sysfs.

The apk is deodexed. As for the permissions. No clue how to set them right
Had to read up an hour last night just to learn enough to extract it. Big newbie here hehe. Guess I'll check some threads about sysfs permissions and try it again later.
Sysfs is everything under /sys directory. File /sys/class/leds/flashlight/brightnes should have read-write permission set for everyone.

Ahhh thanks! I guess I understand now.
Ok I just flashed whitetigerdk's rev03 ROM which is a rooted 2.03 ROM.
Than I did the following in adb shell:
Code:
chmod 777 /sys/class/leds/flashlight/brightness
checked permissions with:
Code:
cd /sys/class/leds/flashlight
ls -l
and it has rw permission for everyone now.
Code:
-rwxrwxrwx root root 4096 2010-12-01 16:29 brightness
Problem is, that booting the phone resets the permissions.
EDIT:
I just repeated the procedure while the phone was booted in normal mode.
Permissions successfully changed AND flashlight is working correctly, including all three different light settings!
Still, a reboot resets the permissions.
Guess I have to find a way to make this change permanent now and all is done
Hah so cool. Never used chmod or any other linux command until today. Had to google everything while I was testing. Nice how much one can learn here.
Another EDIT:
Found something else that is interesting.
http://developer.android.com/reference/android/Manifest.permission.html#FLASHLIGHT
Would adding this to the AndroidManifest.xml help aswell? I'd do it myself but I have to work soon. Just tried it decoding the xml with AXMLPrinter and adding it. Unfortunatly I don't know how to save the xml in the right format again and just saving it corrupts the apk. If noone else wants to give it a try I'll check back after work.
denisman said:

Yeah... this is done via init.rc which is inside initrd image. So you have two options... tweak init.rc (you would need to unpack boot.img image and extract initrd image, edit init.rc, make new initrd image and construct back boot.img... this can all be done in one swoop with dsixda's kitchen) or make a script that is run every boot (we are doing it via run-parts which also requires editing of init.rc... once again dsixda's kitchen can add this functionality in a single swoop)...
As for "android.permission.FLASHLIGHT" I'm not sure about it as I can see that HTC is doing it avoiding it (setting permissions to 666 by default in FroYo)...
If you want decoding/encoding xmls use ApkManager. It's a nice CLI tool that can decompile and compile apks back...
You are quite a fast learner, congrats.
Back home Got pretty late.
I don't actually need this since I am running a rooted Froyo ROM anyways but thought it would be an interesting task to get this working for others to easily use it and for me to learn more about Android. The first option sounds like it would require a bit too much end-user activity and would be limited to a certain set of ROMs if I understand it correctly.
Leaving the second and third option as the most user-friendly ones I guess.
I will read up more on init.rc and ways to script for it tomorrow. Sounds like a very powerful "tool" to know.
For now I will concentrate on the XML. Might be the most comfortable and ROM-independent way if I get it to work.

Used Apk Manager to extract, zip and sign the apk in the first place. Really nice tool. Just didn't find an option to convert the xml from binary to readable, that's why I used AXMLPrinter2.jar which can do the conversion one-way but not back to binary.
I'll find a way
Thanks again for the input! Helped me a lot!

[Q] Will this work for our WF?

Found this thread on the HTC Hero section for it's open GL will this work for our wildfire?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=899801
Yea I flashed it, noticed an improvement in playing angry birds...i think.
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using XDA App
Will it work on cm7 nightlies kevin?
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using XDA App
Yeah
Sent from my HTC Wildfire using XDA App
Yes it works with just about every ROM, but, in my view, I can't see any benefit. (I dont play Angry Birds, and, the rest of the games and LWP's don't show any benefit).
How do you do this?
Just flash it like a rom?
Well, that's what I initially did. Flash the ZIP in Post #49 in that thread. But, on reading that complete thread, I guess you have to edit the build.prop file in /system (Using Root Explorer / ADB Push Pull).
However, this is where I cant get it to work. WHenever I add the 2 lines in Root Explorer and Save Changes, the phone reboots. If I use ADB, even after pushing, when I check the same file using build.prop, no changes are visible, (The opengles.version automatically reverts back to 65536 and the line which enabled hardware acceleration of the UI is gone) and, ASI only shows OpenGL 1.0 due to this
Well, I have no idea what I am doing wrong, will try it out again and see..
I'm a newb with this.
Could someone possibly make a bit more explained guide?
Very basic guide:
* Get Root Explorer or any other file manager that can show the root folders
* Open Root Explorer, change permissions on top to R/W (Be very careful after that. Dont delete anything!)
* Locate the file build.prop under /system
* Long Press the file, Select Edit with Text Editor
* Updated: (ADB Commands Copy - Pasted from another post by kevin2516. Thanks mate )
*Make sure ADB is installed on your system and it is working. There are many guides available to install ADB, so I wont be going into that.
*Start Command Prompt (cmd), Browse to your "Tools" folder into your SDK
*Use the ADB Pull Command adb pull /system/build.prop
*This will now be saved to your tools folder. Edit is using Wordpad / Notepad++ (Not Notepad) as follows:
*Locate a line which starts with dalvik. (The first one, there are 3 of them)
Add the following 2 lines before that:
debug.sf.hw=1
ro.opengles.version=65537
* Save it.
* Push it back to System using the ADB Push Command: adb push build.prop /system/build.prop
* Reboot ADB using the adb reboot command
* Then, grab the Flashable Zip in that thread from Post #48
* Flash it as normal
Done.
Check whether it is implemented or not by going to Android System Info > System Tab > OpenGL. Here, there are 2 OpenGL versions. The first line should say 1.1, and the second should say OpenGL 1.0 ES.
With S-On you cannot change the systemfile directly I think. Thats the reason why your system not keep the change. I have write by myself a little install zip and flash it with nandroid and it works. the zip only works with wildpuzzlerom v0.8 and you can find in the thread for wpr0.8.

Well, I took your flashable ZIP, removed the build.prop it contained, and replaced it with the build.prop of CM7 Nightly 2. Then, I tried flashing it, still no change.
Now, I have no idea whether I am 'allowed' to change flashable ZIP's like that or not, but, from what it is looking like, I am still unable to get this working on CM7NB2. I'll probably try making a flashable ZIP from scratch later as I get time.

If it's simple enough, it would be nice if you could tell how to do a flashable zip (or yourself make a one suitable for CM6/7 ). I just want to test these libraries on CM7, any help is appreciated

Which is exactly what I said in the CM7 thread. No one here has till date, found verifiable gains, with using OpenGL on the Wildfire. Everyone reports the same thing, that there is no or absolutely negligible (Which I think is just a mind thing) change in gaming / intensive applications performance.
If you are looking for ROM's wit inbuilt OpenGLES Support, WildPuzzle has a flashable ZIP, and DS and DK Roms provides it inbuilt in its latest version. For the others, the manual method has to be followed.

[STICKY][Patch][Rom]Malware Exploit for all pre-Gingerbread devices

Who is affected? All devices pre-gingerbread
Who should act? Users and developers using pre-gingerbread roms
How do I fix? Flash attached .zip at the bottom of this post
What if I think I was infected? Completely wipe your device, format sdard, go back to stock and re-apply rom, then flash the attached .zip (before installing any apps)
Why should I care? read below...
http://www.androidpolice.com/2011/0...your-phone-steal-your-data-and-open-backdoor/
Flash this with ClockWorkMod.... this is for any Pre Gingerbread ROM.... ie TNT anything, VEGAn 5.1.1 and below, Zpad anything, GAdam anything.
This is not necessary for any ROMS based off Gingerbread AOSP or CM7. Including VEGAn-TAB Experimentals.
Be Safe.
Even More Details here: http://www.androidpolice.com/2011/0...-android-nightmare-and-weve-got-more-details/
I checked out the zip and it just adds a blank text file (0 bytes) called profile to the /system/bin folder. So I am not sure what the fix is?
**EDIT** Nevermind it is a dummy file meant to prevent the virus. Thanks to the OP for providing this.

Nasty stuff. I would say this patch is high priority and I'm already going through my own ROMs to add it in.

Hi,
I hope that this isn't too offtopic, but I was trying to create /system/bin/profile using a term and su, and when i went into root explorer to make /system/bin R/W, root explorer showed the dir as R/W already, and as mounted on /dev/loop9.
Is that normal?
I haven't installed dataloop, at least intentionally, so it seems strange that /system/bin would be mounted there, plus it being R/W by default?
FYI, I use z4root to get temp root. Could that be why /system/bin is R/W?
Then again, that wouldn't explain the /dev/loop9 mount ...

Hi,
Creating the profile file manually, it wouldn't persist,i.e., it was gone after rebooting, so I installed gojimi's zip usung CWM, and that worked.
I also did a mount w/o getting temp root, and /system/bin is not on /dev/loop9, so I'm guessing that when z4root sets temp root, it might be remounting /system/bin on /dev/loop9 itself.
Jim
You would have to download one of those sketchy apps to really be affected anyways, right? Who would do that?!
Appreciate the patch. This highlights the two problems with android though, google fixed this security issue in 2.2.2, but most carriers still haven't released that update. And the market needs some oversight, not authoritarian apple like, but some.

[TUT][MOD] FuguTweaks, feel the smoothness of Nexus S

Original thread here. Give thanks to nikademus
This tweak adds responsiveness on the phone. What it does is replace app_process and system_server binaries by the ones found in android 2.3.3_r1 or 3.1 (v0.2)
Note that those binaries have been compiled by me from google official source.
This has been qualified by supercurio as a taste of the Nexus S 2.3.3 smoothness.
It will not make your battery last longer or the opposite. Neither will it improve quadrant benchmarks.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
As described above, this tweak will adds responsiveness on the phone, so our device will runs smoother than usual. Also, I'm just found that this tweak will reduce lockscreen-lag yeah I can feel the difference.
This tweak is tested by me on KPN + CF-Root but I'm sure it working on other ROM/firmware, as well as Froyo.
Do this as your own risk!
Always make backup before proceed!​
To install, just download one of the file at the link below then flash with CWM (don't forget to mount /system).
Pick one, no need to use them all...
Download v0.1: Download now - currently I'm using this one
--v0.2 REMOVED. It's troublesome.
Manual install & backup:
With any root file manager, goto /system/bin and mount as R/W, backup the following files to your sdcard: app_process, system_server
Copy FuguTweak files (app_process and system_server) to /system/bin, replace the current one.
Set permissions to rwxr-xr-x (755) then change owner to:
Owner = 0 - root | Group = 2000 -shell
Reboot.
Changelog in the original thread.
0.1 = all files taken from 2.3.3 AOSP
0.2 = app_process only, taken from 3.0 AOSP

How to fix Cyanogenmod 13 AOSP gesture typing! [Works on all devices running Cm 13]

So, after some research, I found out to fix the AOSP gesture typing on Cm 13. This simple fix works on all devices (So far) running Cyanogenmod 13. So, without further ado, lets get into this.
So depending on what Gapps package you flashed to your device, you may need to download the "Google Keyboard" (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.inputmethod.latin&hl=en) and if your device already has it, then right on!
So, using a file exploring app, (I had some slight trouble with the CM File Explorer) go to Root>Data>App>com.google.android.inputmethod.latin-1>lib>arm and stop.
Once you are there, you should see a file named "libjni_unbundled_latinmegoogle.so" this is the file you need to get the gesture typing working.
So, what you want to do is copy that file to System>Lib. After you've done that, rename the file to "libjni_latinemegoogle.so"
And congratulations! You did it! Now, a quick reboot and your gesture typing should be working, if not, post in the comments and I'll try and fix it for you.
P.S. I know there is a way to do this using a terminal app like "Terminal Emulator" but I had issues doing so. If anyone out there knows how to do this, please share how in the comments!
The specified ARM folder is empthy.
Edit: Don't use CM File Manager as it won't find the file. Also keep in mind that some languages don't support swype functionality.
Excuse the lazy copy-and-paste job from the CyanogenMod Forums, but I have got this to say:

Thank you very much for helping me out with fixing the AOSP Keyboard Swype gesture fix @MrPockets and @TacoTank
Here's a flashable ZIP with the addon.d BASH survival script so that if you want to install nightly updates and do anything relating to this, you can just flash this ZIP package without the fear of losing this feature.
This has also been tested on CM14 (Android Nougat) and I can confirm that this works without any issue whatsoever.
Enjoy.

Hi, I tried to install your zip from recovery, but in my AOSP Unlegacy-Android Marshmallow it did not work. Any troubleshooting?

Download, and extract the whole folder to:
Code:
/system/app/
Be warned that this may cause problems as this was taken from Lineage 7.1.1 so backup your LatinIME files before making any changes.

Thanks for your help. Do you think only the shared object will be enough?

The shared object (that is modded to support Swype) and the Swype gesture flashable ZIP will suffice
