[Q] Removing "Share" entries

Hey guys, I searched around for this and hit nothing but dead ends so if there is an answer out there please link to it and leave it at that
BUT, what I want to do is remove entries from my "share" menu that comes up in Gallery and other places, mine is so freaking full that MMS isnt even listed there and I want to get rid of the ones I will never use!
Anyone able to point me in the right direction?

[Q] Debugging help needed

I have a user of my app who is having a problem running it. My code launches another activity in the same app, and he is saying it is stopping before it should & returning to the previous activity, and he doesn't see any Force Close warnings.
I have run my code in the emulator & on my phone, I can't reproduce the error. We both run Android 2.2 on our phones, his is an HTC EVO & mine is a HTC Wildfire, as far as I can tell his specs are better than mine so shouldn't cause an issue - I deliberately chose a low spec for for my dev work so the code ought to run on anything.
As a bit of an Andoid dev noob (but been coding for years), is there any easy way I can make a special build of the app to send to him that would log any errors that happen ? I'd like to get a stack dump as well if possible, as I'm not sure exactly what routine in the activity its crashing out in. The activity that crashes is Gallery with 9 images in it, he can't flick through them or select one. I'm stumped as to whats causing it, any assistance would be gratefully received.
Thanks.

Why not point to your app and let others here try it on their phones? It could simply be other apps installed on his phone interfering with your app.

Long time programmer here too and when I get to where you're at (and I"m sure you've put some hours into this LOL), I go back to STEP 1.
I comment-out any and all code but the bare minimum; break it down to the Intent, startActivity and maybe a Toast message in the second activity. Even parse down your XML files to bare minimum.
See if that works. Then, ADD BACK ONE LINE OF CODE AT A TIME Run program and make sure it works. Yeah, it's painful, but in my 20 years of coding, I've learned to put my pride aside and to not "pretend" all the code I've written is correct.
Sometimes on bigger projects, I"ll change or add a couple of lines of code, run a back up and test. Rinse and repeat LOL. That way, I know I"m only a couple of lines of code from what "used" to work.
Good Luck!

Thanks both of you.
old_dude - Its a paid app. Only £0.99 but I don't think people would pay to help me. There is a free version of the same app (with less functionality) that this guy can get to work. If your really interested the 2 versions are -
Plink Log - Free Version
Plink Log Pro - Paid version
Rootstonian - agreed thats the approach I'd normally take if I was having problems on my dev phone or the emulator. The problem is that its OK on my HTC Wildfire/Android2.2 but on this guys HTC EVO/Android2.2 its having problems. I dont really want to keep sending him .apks with 1 or 2 lines extra enabled just to see if that fixes his specific issue. I was hoping there was something I could code to catch whatever crashes the activity & log it somewhere for me to analyse. When I do PC dev work, I have a global exception handler that catches anything I dont explicitly handle, and dumps the full call stack into a Log File I can read later.
I think I'll just have to take the existing app & put loads of debug code into it to save messages into a log file & see what bits of code are being called & what isn't & then get him to email me the results.
Thanks for the ideas guys, its always useful to get input from another perspective.

Hmmmm, just discovered setDefaultUncaughtExceptionHandler - might be able to use that with printStackTrace. Sounds interesting.

Help with finishing my App (ROM Control)

Hey, so I have made an app for customizing some stuff on my Droid 3, but it works on my nexus 7, and cannot get it to load right on my D3 at the momment but that's not the issue. So what it does right now is I have a settings pannel and the only one I have actually coded is Notification background color. It sends the RGB to AccellerometerRotation in Settings.System. I will make it send to custom places once it is done. But I can then retrieve that in app, and use it to set color filter on a preview I have in my app, so bottom line, my code works.
Now, I need to add this code into the SystemUI.apk so that it will automatically run at some point (any point really) like a change in wallpaper or a reboot. I cannot figure out how to acomplish this. I have tried copypasting from JD GUI, adding my code, building apk for smali, and replacing the smali, but it doesn't work, either force crash or no systembar. I have tried to do this method on both ImageWallpaper class and the SystemUIService class, neither worked. At this point I'm totally stumped as to what to do. I assume adding my own class that would run but TBH, I am totally beat with trying anymore alone. Sometimes, its best to just let someone else take the wheel for a bit haha.
If anyone can help me finish my app, I am rewarding $40 Via PayPal for completion, which Is hopefully insentive enough for all you greedy people to assist haha.
So if any of you know how to do this, i can post the code (will be annoying till I get internet back) if needed, but ide prefer not until I get power and internet. Thanks in advance for all the responses!

I see you all viewing lol, can I get some responses <3 still stuck. I might try to just convert my java to smali and insert it into the existing smali but idk

[7/2][Trailblazer101] Definitive List Of Mods + Faithful Beta Testers

Dear everyone,
I'll be putting here a list of everything that I've done, but first let's get to what I really care about!
I have a few things in the works, I just need people to test. I am going to create a definitive list of about 10~ people who will be willing to let me flash whatever I make and want to their phone I know I've asked people before, but this time it's as official as I can make it, compiling emails and creating either a Google+ Community or Hangouts Chat.
Some things I will need help testing:
Cocktail AutoOn Features/Suggestions. I uploaded it on the Play Store, in alpha testing, and will need help before I release it.
Automatic Patching for Cocktail AutoOn (specifically people who are deodexed [Or know how to deodex-- all that needs to be is services.jar], running a build I haven't already supported...)
ClockUnlock -- Double Tap the Edge Clock to Open Clock App, Long Hold to Turn On Screen. Made this because I was worried about using my power button too much xD
Hangouts Group Support for PeopleStripe
Things Involving EdgeLighting. Whether it be having it display a random color (or a set one, depending on what you want) instead of white for calls.
Your Suggestions. I am a very busy person, but I'll come around to it sooner for the group than usual Remember: I do original work, supported for all S6 Edge's. And Enjoy personally adding/extending features that make our phone different from the others

I definatelyvcsn give it a go. On the tmo s6 edge of8 leak

Me 2 Trailblazer. Im willing to test it myself ...

Thanks for the support so far guys, send me a PM if you haven't already with your email and i'll make a list
But I need everyone's help! Anyone who has my Cocktail AutoOn app running successfully, send me your Build Number (Along with a description of the phone, please Like Verizon Edition, whatever rom your running, etc)! You can find that within Settings-> About Phone. This should be the same as, and you could also find it at, system/build.prop -> ro.build.display.id. I have added support within the app of automatically downloading/installing the mod for supported devices (this is different than auto patching, which should work on any deodexed build, even ones I haven't supported yet). I have a database online I can update with this information, and thus don't have to release individual packages for everyone! In the meantime you can find the Google Play version by doing this:
Join Google Community
Follow Instructions here: Google Play Link Instructions

This look great but I am very new to S6 Edge (but I am a veteran flashaholic user).
I will join soon. :good::good::good:

I'm down to test anything for Verizon s6 edge
