i m using android on my diamond & want to have some cool apps to work on but downloading from market is a task i dont want to do...is there any place where i can download the .apk file & install it on my diamond...plz help me with link or reply...
thanks!
what android version are u using and where did you get it from ?
i am searching this topic for weeks now and can't find a solution on how to copy a working android port on my touch diamond.
seems there is no such webpage and i can't find a forum post that just tells me "here is the most up to date and best android version for touch diamond in a zip file, just copy this to your htc root folder and you're done."
gets me sick.
same with win7 ports. can't find a serious thread for this topic with a simple post like : here is the actual port.. this runs, that doesnt, copy the zip to your root and run the .cab file.
is it really so difficult for people to just do that instead of writing thousands of forum posts to gather 15 different files, and 10 have to be different to make it work.. it's like hell.
and please.. just use the android market, my gf is doing this all day and it works very good. you can search for free apps in topics and with a free search option and you got ALL android apps available. what do you want even more ?
Hi all,
Recently I got the official Chinese ROM for Milestone 2, which comes with stock MKV+RMVB support, correctly-ordered Chinese contacts and call recorder. However, the Chinese ROM has no moto blur support for facebook & twitter, so I'm trying to port these things to my phone running UK ROM.
The media support seems harder to me, so I start with apps. AFAIK, odex+apk system apps cannot be substituted directly, and they should be deodexed. But when using baksmali how can I get the dependency of those odex? Shall I do manual/brutal search?
Edit:
I tried dsixda's linux kitchen, which successfully handles most of the odex files by brutal search, however, it fails to locate com/android/internal/policy/impl/LockScreen, how can I dig into this?
I have little experience in rom hacking so any help would greatly appreciated
found out the answer myself - when invoke baksmaili the order of files in BOOTCLASSPATH matters.
Now I got all files in /system/framework deodexed, and I think I could do /system/app without problem now

can you help me~？
Can I ask where you got the ROM without the MotoBlur etc? I got my MS2 in China and want to use Chinese with an English OS, and also want to get rid of the whole MotoBlur thing and use the real AndroidMarket. Sounds like your custom ROM can do just that.
I 'm using [July 24th] [Sense 3.5] Energy™ -.¸¸.·´¯ Sense 3.5 build that just works! NAND ROM that best suits my needs. However I saw [11 SEP] Barebone CM7 v2b and came to idea to make similar thing with this rom for my personal use.
I would also like to implement NativeSD ROM, with that difference of leaving system folder on NAND rom. To be absolutely clear here, I 'm using linux OS and I 'm quite familiar with modifications that have to be done, so I don 't ask for help with that.
I would like to know is it possible to deploy nand rom to android emulator, and than use android emulator for development purposes for further customization, or is there some other tool that can be used for this? I did install android kitchen and I not very pleased with that.
When removing or adding system or market apps is it just enough to add/delete them, or are there some other things that I need to pay attention to?
Also when removing apps how can I see framework dependences to remove them as well if they are not needed anymore by other app?
I hope that is not to complicate to understand what I meant with this topic.
Thanks in advance.
The answer to my question about framework dependencies of a certain *.apk file that I want to remove, can be found in AndroidManifest.xml of that same *.apk file. Although manifest file is encrypted, information about what framework libraries are used can be viewed with aapt command (exp: aapt l -a someapp.apk).
I suppose this is the right way for doing this. Please correct me if there is a better way.
Hello Friends,
I have just been introduced to android libraries and have checked out a lot of them. But I have no idea how to use them in my android app.
So can someone post a guide on how to Search, Download, and integrate them in our android project. As I have searched on internet and got to know that we have to put the jar in lib folder, and use the particular classes, but can someone guide how to do the same and how to use them in out layout to give cool effects to our app.
Thanks
In the layout you need to put the full name of the class (including the package):
Code:
<com.example.test.MyButton
... />
You have already answered the question how to integrate them.
For search this is the best starting point: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2226547
Second is Google.
Hi,
I have extracted a lot of stuff from one rom where I just pulled system files and framework and so on but I want to put it into another rom but I am not sure how I decompile a complete rom?
Can someone please explain it that has some development knowledge?
Like what tools to use for all this to happen.
