Create Toast from shell

Hallo,
is it possible to create a custom user-defined Toast from a shell script/command? Maybe by 'am' command, sending a broadcast to a systemapp or something?
Any ideas?

I don't know what are you talking about. Toasts can be made only with Java, afaik.
Code:
String MyCustomMessage="SOME MESSAGE HERE";
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), // OR getActivity(), depending on your case.
MyCustomMessage, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();

Have a look at this: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/android-scripting/Ok0J5mcIm08

I've tested the small Java app. It works but unfortunately its kinda buggy. The screen flashes/goes dark before the toast comes up and logcat shows weird errors (missing crypto libs(?), resource leaks..). Maybe a good time to try coding it myself...
If i fail badly i will take another look at the perl solution even though i don't like the dependency of larger 3rd party tools.
Thanks so far..

I guess that a new Activity is launched with that apk. Using a BroadcastReceiver instead of an Activity should fix the problem.

I think a main activity is mandatory but it probably should be invoked differently indeed. I've seen other apps starting invisible.
I maybe take it to the GScript thread. In the end, that's the tool where it makes sense.

It isn't.
Create the toast in the onReceive() method of the BroadcastReceiver and send the broadcast as described here.
No need for an Activity.

But i thought a java class extending activity is needed to display a toast...
I am also trying to do that and i think if u put the toast-code inside onCreate() after super.onCreate() and just delete 'setContentView(R.layout.xyz)' it should display invisibly

The screen will turn dark for about a second as it will try to launch the new app and prepares everything. Why not do it from the BroadcastReceiver?

Galaxy s5 Lollipop Gallery on Nexus 5

Downloaded S5 Lollipop firmware from Poland. Extracted Gallery app.
Tried to install it, and it fails, so i pushed it to /system/app/secgallery2014/
After a reboot, the app appears to be installed, and when i launch it, i've FC. Here's logcat :
W/ActivityManager( 786): Activity pause timeout for ActivityRecord{3dcad235 u0 com.sec.android.gallery3d/.app.GalleryOpaqueActivity t31 f}
Do you know whats the problem ?
Cheers

Most likely needs TouchWiz framework stuff.

No, you need touchwiz for it to work. I don't think just adding some files would make it work. I believe most Touchwiz apps depend on the complete Touchwiz framework to work properly (the same reason we can't have complete Touchwiz ROMs) so I doubt it would work. (Feel free to prove me wrong or correct me )

[Q]Apk Decompiling Errors

So, i'm new to this entire thing, i'm hoiping im in the correct section. Redirect me if im not. I appreciate any help I can get.
I must be half retarded or full retarded cause I cannot figure out what i'm doing wrong.
I'm trying apk studio, apk tool, like everything. All I want to do is change a package name of my apk, but I cannot decompile it.
I'm not fully understanding the framework-res.apk I guess. I found one online and tried using it but I keep getting errors while trying to install the framework, and I can't find any framework files via google. Where am I supposed to get the Framework???
THis is the error i'm getting trying to install the framework. Am I using wrong framework? All I want to do is decompile dang apk rename package and recompile, this is killing me. Here is the error i'm getting.
Code:
C:\android\apktool>apktool if framework-res.apk

There are a lot more talented people than me but I'll try my best to help you.
1. Make sure your have updated your apktool.jar to the latest version if using apk studio
2. You need to install the correct framework res for the app your trying to decompile. If it is a Google app then you are best using the latest cm framework res.apk so grab it from any cm rom that is the latest release
3. If it is a vendor app like Samsung then you will need the tw framework res.apk and the framework res.apk from the rom the app is from.
If you can tell me the app you want to decompile and the rom it's from I should be able to tell you which frameworks to install

Well its a custom made app from my buddy, he went away on vacation and my whole goal is to just change the package name so I can run 2 instances. He told me to go ahead, than left on holiday,
He is on stock lollipop, not custom rom.

OK then you probably just need the frameworkres.apk from cm 12 to be honest
