Possibly that app doesn't support being installed to the sd card? Just a guess.. Maybe you could try app to sd?

Something is wrong (obviously) is this the first SD build you've used? Check to see if theirs a newer version and try it because their could have been a bug.. Honestly I would recommend nand install but I understand not everyone wants that. I would have to at least try reinstalling it and possibly a different rom...
Hope that helped some!

Hopefully this works! If not, try changing density to 240 (instead of 160) as many advise this is better. However a 240 density, makes display larger, while 160 is very much similar to what you now have.

I run NAND builds and this is something that I have noticed. For example an app would work just fine with typhoon CM7, but when running Hyperdroid CM7 it would give me the compatibility error like you're getting. My guess is it has something to with how the ROM is cooked, but I could be wrong; I'm still kinda NEWB

I have tried this already.When I try to save the build.prop it has an error, and says unable to save.But when I reboot and go back to build.prop its changed to 240.. go figure.I also tried the market thing by clearing cache and force stop.Also tried ROM manager and fixing the permissions.Still nodda.I guess I can try a diff build.Any suggestions? Wanna do it the SD way.Im kinda new to the phone stuff.So easier is better for me atm.

First of all, the guideline works on SD ROM installation. I never tried NAND cause I need to have dual boot option
As for the "File not saved" warning, before editing the boot.prop remember to change permissions (you've missed a step)! After all changes are done, save and close. Then restore permissions...

Thats probally my issue, the other tut like this i used didnt have the change permission thing.How do I change permission on such file?

After changing density to 160, you also have to change the phone model infos (search for adjusting build.prop to htc vision, but I'm not sure of this can be done in SD builds.
Also, you have to (after changing density) reboot and then force srop market and clear market data and cache.
Altogether, this should do it.
Edit: to be able to rewrite build.prop, get ES task explorer (it's free) and you have settings there, at their bottom is make system writable. Check that.

When I long click build.prop.. theres no option to change permissions.

What file manager do u use?
I use 'File Expert' as file manager and by long press on the file, a pop-up menu appears. It has 'Permissions' at the mid-lower part of the menu. Open it and just enable all-you will fix permissioms at the end..
I don't know how other file managers handle this, but I'm sure they do it somehow!

Go to settings, check root explorer and then check mount system as writable.
Save, reboot, and you should be there. It might ask for superuser permission, which you allow.

Here's how my part of my build.prop looks, maybe it will help, you should change it exactly to these:
ro.product.model=HTC Vision
ro.product.brand=tmobile
ro.product.name=vision
ro.product.device=vision
ro.product.board=vision
(then few lines lower)
ro.product.manufacturer=HTC
(Few more lines lower)
ro.build.product=vision
Plus of course the density to 160.
Save, reboot, clear market data and cache.
I have just checked my market and for me words with friends free is available for download.
So if THIS doesn't work, I give up.

That would be cool except I havd an HD2 not vision.And the board is leo not vision.Im not a phone DEV person, but somehow that doesnt look correct to me.If I changed my build.prop for htc hd leo to htc vision, it might corrupt my build.Maybe Im wrong, but I got this build out of the HTC HD2 leo android forums.

hey just root your phone with cf root download rootbrowser and replace the downloaded version with the one in system/app
then reboot

Hi guys!
I'm bumping an ancient thread here, hope that's okay with you.
I have this old S4+ lying around. I love it's Gallery app due to the built-in possibility to losslessly trim MPEG-4 AVC (H.264) videos by cutting to nearest keyframe, and also lossless rotation by changing the rotation metadata flag of the MP4 file in question. This simple feature is not implemented in "modern" Gallery apps, or well at least not in the OnePlus 5T I'm using today. So, I was thinking I could extract the .APK from my S4+ (running Android 5.x) and put it in my OP5T (running Android 8.x) without too much headache. Guess if I was wrong.
I get the error about that app was not installed. After browsing around on e.g. ApkMirror, I ultimately found a Samsung Galaxy derived Gallery .APK that I could install, it was a very early version (v1.x.something) which has the cutting feature, but not the rotation (flag changing) feature. So, this ancient Gallery3D .apk installed well, but not the one on my own Galaxy S4+.
So, what could be my issue? Is the .APK flagged to be installed as a system app, and due to my OP5T not being rooted I don't have access too /system/app/, therefor the error? Could it be that simple? If so, is it possible the modify the .APK to install as in /data/app/ instead? Of course I'd resign the APK with some dummy/androiddebug signature afterwards to make installation possible.
Could it be some silly (not really needed) demand listed in the AndroidManifest.xml of the APK in question? If so, is it possible to replace the AndroidManifest.xml with a very "basic" one listing more or less no demands, and re-wrap everything with new signature?
I'm really investigating all my options __except__ for having to root my OnePlus!

I figured that I could get a more specific error message from ADB than by just trying to install the .APK through the phone interface.
So, here goes..
Code:
C:\>adb.exe install F:\Galleri_com.sec.android.gallery3d.apk
adb: failed to install F:\Galleri_com.sec.android.gallery3d.apk: Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_INVALID_APK: Package couldn't be installed in /data/app/com.sec.android.gallery3d-RAEW5FZ4VBWqTWXx48LPmQ==: Package /data/app/com.sec.android.gallery3d-RAEW5FZ4VBWqTWXx48LPmQ==/base.apk code is missing]
What does this tell me?

The Galaxy S4 and most Samsung devices has a second framework app, twframework-res.apk, that only works with their apps. Here's the fun part: the existing Android framework-res.apk is modified by Samsung so both framework apps are required by a given Samsung app to function. Even better is that you cannot simply port the app and twframework-res.apk to a totally different device and expect it to function. You'd have to port the framework-res.apk as well, and with that apk being a system file, you'd soft brick your device after copying it and rebooting.
The tl;dr here? What you're attempting won't work due to Samsung modifications to Android.

[MOD] Add top number row to Swype

Hello guys,
Since I use a Samsung device, I'm used to the extra number row on top of the keyboard so I modded Swype to have that extra row. However since Swype is to be purchased and not distributed, I'll only tell here how to do it for your legally purchased copy. And this is a bit complicated and for advanced users and you need to be rooted. You also need Root Explorer. Here we go:
1- First buy/download Swype from Google Play.
2- Go to /mnt/asec/com.nuance.swype.dtc-1 folder, copy pkg.apk to your sdcard, rename it to com.nuance.swype.dtc-1.apk.(keep a backup of this file at all times)
3- Go to /mnt/asec/com.nuance.swype.dtc-1/lib folder copy the files (libnmsp_speex.so and libswypecore.so) to your sdcard.
4- Using apktool (I used version 1.52) decompile com.nuance.swype.dtc-1.apk.,
5- Go to decompiled folder\res\xml folder. kbd file pertaining to your language is to be edited, I edit kbd_qwerty.xml for English using Notepad++.
6- Check the attached kbd_qwerty.xml in portrait folder and notice the extra row section I added to the top. You can in fact add secondary characters to numbers or customize the keyboard completely, rearrange letters, add symbols etc.
7- Once done, save the file and go to decompiled folder\res\xml-land folder and edit the landscape for the layout, kbd_qwerty.xml file, notice the attached file in landscape folder.
8- Once done, save the file and go to decompiled folder\res\values folder and edit the dimens.xml file. Here I raise the height of the keyboard and height of the key to 270dip and 54dip respectively, check the top rows of the attached dimens.xml. Also increase the keyboard height for landscape (if you want) by changing the dimens.xml under res\values-land folder.
9- Once done, recompile the folder with apktool, go to decompiled folder\dist folder and copy the apk here to a different folder and rename it to temp.apk.zip
10- Open temp.apk.zip with 7z/winrar and copy the resources.arsc and kbd_qwerty.xml files from res\xml and res\xml-land folders to your PC(obviously keep the 2 files in seperate folders not to overwrite)
11- Then, rename the original apk from step 2 to com.nuance.swype.dtc-1.apk.zip , open with winrar and first delete resources.arsc file, then drag the resources.arsc file from step 10 to the archive, it will be added. Staying in winrar, go to res\xml folder and replace the file with kbd_qwerty.xml from step 10 (the portrait version). Do the same with res\xml-land folder and the landcape file.
12- Once finished rename the file back to com.nuance.swype.dtc-1.apk, don't sign it, don't delete META-INF folder, leave it as it is.
13- Now, on your phone, uninstall Swype. Reinstall it from the apk file on Step 2. Go to /data/app-lib/com.nuance.swype.dtc-1 folder and move the 2 files (libnmsp_speex.so and libswypecore.so) to system/lib folder. You have to mount the System R/W from Root Explorer on this step. Fix the permissions so these 2 files have the same permissions with other files there. If you can't find these files just use the ones from Step 3.
14- Once done, copy com.nuance.swype.dtc-1.apk from Step 12 to /system/app and fix the permissions so that it has the same permissions as other files there.
15- Then delete the com.nuance.swype.dtc-1.apk from /data/app/ folder. Restart your phone.
This should be it if you followed it exactly, tracing and Dragon voice dictation also works. While you're doing all this work (takes 10 minutes by the way), you might also consider changing how Swype looks (theming) and changing many other things like swype thickness, colors etc. Please note that this is for advanced and rooted users and please don't ask me to give you the modded apk, you have to do it on your legally bought version. You might consider doing backups just in case anything goes wrong. Have fun.
And a quick tip: if you swype from swype icon to symbol key(123), arrow keyboard opens up.
You can also add arrow keys by copying arrow keys from kbd_edit.xml, check the 2nd screenshot.
Please hit the thanks button if you think this is useful.

Nice how to. But may u should tell that the latest Android versions store purchased apps in data/app-asec as asec version, this need special procedure to get a apk from the asec format.

Can you please update this tutorial to 4.3 ? I couldn't find the files in the mentioned paths. . I'm on stock rooted 4.3 on gt9500

It works same for me on 4.3 stock rooted i9500, maybe you could do a file search to find the necessary folder. Here is another screenshot with the updated Swype(1.6.2.22328), where I made number buttons smaller like original Samsung Keyboard and hide the suggestions bar to save space.

using the current play store version (1.6.3.22544), i decompiled com.nuance.swype.dtc-1.apk (/mnt/asec/com.nuance.swype.dtc-1/pkg.apk) using APKTool 1.52. i made no changes and attempted to recompile without success.
the first error displayed by apktool is:

i do use APKTool successfully to mod other apps so i am familiar with the process.

Latest version of Swype has incompatible tags with Apktool. What you do is go to all the lines that give error and change them to <string-array>. Then it compiles.

thanks man, appreciate the help and info!

I've been going nuts trying to edit swype for a week now and still can't seem to get it to work. All I want to do is change the suggested word color and maybe a few other minor color related things. I assumed just changing the color codes in /res/values/styles.xml that seemed to pertain to the holo theme would work but I can't ever get the app to install. Not even sure where to begin to ask for help on this one but if anyone has any advice I'd greatly appreciate it.

Ok I've tried this a hundred times following all the steps completely and it just wont work.
Once I go to install the final apk it always tries to install then sais App Not Installed.

You don't install the final apk, in fact you can't since the certificate is no longer valid. You copy the final apk in place as in Step 14.

I would love this! I have used Swype for years but I would love a number row. To be honest I have no idea how to follow those instructions! I have a rooted phone - what can I do?

Am I right in concluding that you can't use TB to backup and restore the finished product and this will have to be done manually? I did this on my rooted Note 3 and I keep going back to my stock image because I don't want to have to keep doing the steps when I flash a new ROM or ROM update.
Would I maybe just have to do steps 12 onward every time?

When you install a new ROM, you install original Swype from apk file then you move the lib files to /system/lib, copy the modded apk to /system/app and delete original apk from /data/app folder. So it is 4 steps once you have the modded apk ready, should take no more than 5 minutes.

This is similar. Please go through the steps, you don't (can't) install the modded apk, you move it in place.

Yeah I realized that after I posted and still nothing. I'm no programmer but I've never NOT been able to change a few things and recompile. Not sure how just changing a few color codes is causing such a problem. Shame such a nice keyboard has such little customization and few themes. Don't get me wrong I like orange but it really doesn't mesh at all with the rest of the UI. Thanks for the reply though.

I did all that and it changed the height of the keyboard, but didn't add any additional number row.
kdb_qwerty or whatever it's called is the default that comes up when you install it, right? Becuase I tried again and specifically made sure to use this one and it just wont give me the extra row, just the height.

It depends on your system language. Try kbd_qwerty_panlatin.xml.

[Q] Can't save build.prop edits - Rooted MF3

Hi, first time poster here. I can usually find what I need, but I'm stumped here.
I'm running a rooted Galaxy S4 on ATT with the i337ucuamf3 build.
I've successfully installed viper4android, but it only works on and off, with Google Music.
I'm pretty sure the fix for this is to change the build.prop lines: Ipa.decode, tunnel.decode and Ipa.use-stagefright.
I've tried everything that I can think of, but I no matter how I make the changes, they will not save. I've tried mounting System R/W in Rom Toolbox, and booting into System R/W. I've made the changes with Rom Toolbox Pro and ES File Manager. Nothing works.
Can anybody tell me if I just can't make these changes to build.prop because of the build I'm running?
Please, any help would be appreciated. When viper does work, it's incredible!
Thanks.

Hello,
I was trying to edit the build prop file using the ES Explorer, but the same happened to me, I could edit the file by downloading the "build prop editor" from play store.
Edit the file by pressing the button in shape of a pencil and later press the save button. If you only search for the line you want to edit in the main screen of the app you will be able to modify the line but the changes are not saved.
Thanks/rate

Never mind.

ES File doesn't always save, you'll just have to try a different app. Root explorer should work or fx file manager.

[HOWTO] Enable Auto Rotation for Lock Screen & Launcher

This is a quick walk through for editing the build.prop to allow lock screen and launcher rotation.​
I got tired of looking at my phone sideways while it was propped up landscape wise, in my case.
1. Locate "build.prop" in /system using your favorite file explore
2. Open it up and at the bottom add the lines
Code:
log.tag.launcher_force_rotate=VERBOSE
lockscreen.rot_override=true
3. Save your edit and reboot.
Lockscreen rotation still not working for you???
A few users have reported that adding a blank line between the two, fixes this issue.
Once the phone reboots your lockscreen and Google Now launcher will rotate with the orientation of the device just like other apps do.
To undo this, simply remove the lines we added
:good:
Update: 11/10/2015
enigma9o7 Has figured out how to get this to stick even after an update! Head over to his post for the walkthrough and install guide!! Remember to give them a "thanks" for sharing the work!

Awesome I been wondering how to get this done.

Nice tip. I've always just used an app called Ultimate Rotation Control. Seems to work just fine on the Nexus 6. A quick build.prop tweak removes the need for a separate app for it, though. I might get around to trying this...eventually

can someone make a flash able zip for this please ?
thanks in advance

Anybody know how one would do this with adb?
N6

I used an app for quite some time but i disliked it running in the background.
Im not able to make a flashable zip. Maybe in time I will see if i can.
For adb, youd have to pull the build.prop, edit on computer then push it back. The instructions to do that are unclear to me

You can install Nova Launcher and toggle the setting in there, or use the ultimate rotation app someone else mentioned.

Thx

If you set the DPI to 384 or less, this happens by default.

Thats good to know! Not surprising, the device is most likely changed to "tablet size" to the system. And they have full rotation.

Works great, thanks! (AT&T Nexus 6)

Would not work for me I get error saving

gotcha. You are rooted, correct? and if so what file manager are you using to locate the build.prop?

es file explorer and i'm rooted.

in ES file explorer when you grant it root permissions, click on root, then mount R/W, make sure "/system" is RW instead of RO. (sorry if you already know this, im just trying to save time and figure your error out haha)

Thanks I got it working.:good:

Glad to hear it!

to each their own, I like being able to get OTAs so I'll stick with Ultimate Rotation Control
