Hey everyone...I wanted to share something I came across (I did not do ANY of the work...I simply found this in another forum and didn't see it here so I wanted to post it to XDA). For any of you who like the cool news and weather widget from N1's 2.1 build...some smart people ported it over to 1.5, and it works (I tested it out on my CDMA hero). They uploaded it as a .RAR file (as opposed to a .zip), but just download winzip's free trial version and extract using that. Here's the link!
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=DYWP2DON
Just extract the apk file from RAR, put it on your hard drive and navigate to it with some kind of file explorer (Astro file manager, etc) and click on the apk file. Your phone will ask you if you want to install it. Once installed add it like any other widget (it will be under Android Widgets).
Edit: Some people on the other forum are experiencing force closes upon reboot. I rebooted to check and did not have any problems. I hope all works for you as well.
Sweet, will try it out!
Nice find! It works perfectly. Thanks
Could someone please rehost this elsewhere? I'm having problems with megaupload lately.
are you guys updating through recovery or pushing it through adk
works great
This works great tell them great job and thanks for bringing this to xda
can someone post a screenie of the reader and does it have a widget?
so far this works great for me!
+1 request for a screenshot.
I can extract a RAR file, but are you guys putting it back in a ZIP and flashing it through recovery or ADB push into what directory?
How exactly are you getting the widget onto your phones?

I'd like to know this as well.
I downloaded it, Un-Rar'd it and used HTC sync App Installer and it works beautifully. No need to re-zip it. It is in APK format.
Inside the RAR file is the .apk. Extract it, put it on your SD card and use a File Manager to install it. As far as screenshots, if you've ever used the 2.1 ROM, its the same widget.

sweet thanks for that info thats what I was hoping for. love the reader widget been waiting for it to get ported.
It looks like you just extract the apk from the rar and then install it. I'm making a BART backup first before I try to install it (I needed to backup anyway).
I'll post back with a screenshot unless someone beats me to it.
dang not the one that I was looking for I really would like to see the RSS reader from the 2.1 build ported I really like that one over any of the ones available on the market.
Screen shots:
Weather
News
Thanks for this. Works great on AOSP 1.6
Installed, tried all the configs, uninstalled. Not as cool as I was expecting it to be. The HTC weather widget is better. This one is quite bland. I'd rather install a separate news ticker app.
Just extract the apk file from RAR, put it on your hard drive and navigate to it with some kind of file explorer (Astro file manager, etc) and click on the apk file. Your phone will ask you if you want to install it. Once installed add it like any other widget (it will be under Android Widgets).
I posted screen shots to the original post.
Seems kind of laggy.

Hello Guys!!!
Sorry for the problems caused There Were More Two Widgets Missing Other Than Messaging widget to be coppied to Internal Memory Namely The Clock & Contact Widgets, So They Are Added In The Re-Update, The Whole .exe Is To Be Downloaded Again, Sorry For This.
Even The superuser enabler package(.exe) is fixed...But If U already Have the old .exe , just get the attached script & replace it with the old one...
Be Tuned For Apps2Sd & An Rom With At-least 30 MB Of Free Internal Memory Build....M Currently Initializing Source Code So That Will Help Me With Some Stuffs Like Update-Script & Some Stabilization Of ROM...
SUPERUSER ENABLER
Thers no SuperUser Apk Working On Haykuro's Hero Rom, So to get It Working, Only Installing Is Not Enough So I have Got It Working, Follow This Steps...
Note: To Test, Just Try Using CPU Overclocker Widget(Its Free) From The Market Before & After Using This... u ll Notice the Change
Steps:
1. Download The Install-Enable-SU-By-Sangeet.exe & Extract Any where By Double Clicking It.

3. Run The Install-Enable-SU .bat File.
4. Choose Appropriate options..
5. Rebooting Not Recommended...(UR WISH)
Rosie UI Enhancer/Optimizer
Note: U Must not Be Using Apps To SD Other Than The Default app_s folder
Means U must Not Have /Data/app Moved to /System/sd/app
The Rosie UI Dosent Need The Launcher.apk, So This Script Removes It.
This Script Moves/Installs Rosie Application To Internal Memory...
MoreOver, The Rosie UI Uses The HTC Widgets Which Are Seperate Applications, So Even If The Rosie Loads Fast, The Widgets Make It Slow...
So This Script Even Moves/Installs The HTC Widgets To Internal Memory...
Steps:
1. Download The Fixed-Rosie-UI-Optimizer.exe & Extract Any where By Double Clicking It.
Download Link: http://android-latest-build-images.googlecode.com/files/Fixed-Rosie-UI-Optimizer.exe
2. Connect Ur Phone Via USB Cable
3. Run The Optimize_Rosie.bat File.
4. Choose Appropriate options..
5. Reboot The Phone (NEEDED)
Dex-Optimizing
After All That, The Widgets Would Take Some Internal Memory, So I Would Recommend Using The Dex Optimizer...
Steps:
1. Download The Dex-Optimizer.exe & Extract Any where By Double Clicking It.
Download Link: http://android-latest-build-images.googlecode.com/files/Dex-Optimizer.exe
2. Connect Ur Phone Via USB Cable

I Dint Know Hod to make such scripts with options Learned from HTC Hero Speedup vXX by tehseano so credits to him too...
If Any one else left inform me i ll add..
Please add this to the wiki and PM me the url so I can add it to the roundup thread.
Only post problems with the above thread. Do not go off topic.
ryanmo5 opened this thread saying it didn't work and it messed up his home screen.
Thank you ryan for trying this out and letting us know.
i tried this and it says no such file or directory on all files. And then it says it cant find .apks for all files to install. Ok i didnt even look at my home screen all my widgets are gone except the clock. When i try to add the htc widgets im left with only 4 widgets.
Also the Install-Enable-SU.bat did not work for me. Was stating batch was inoperable.
Yeah, the UI tweak totally borked my phone. It locks up at the HTC logo. I went back to ion till tomorrow.
WEE!!!
AWESOME. This is fantastic. Thank you for your hard WORK!! much appreciated! Seems to have worked like a charm for me and i can really notice a huge speed boost especially when going back to the home screen.
I have found my HEROOO!
Oh and btw, when you do the part to optmize for Rosie, the folder that contains the apks should be renamed from Rosie to Files. That will make things work. It did for me.
I miss the Rosie UI lock screen though... its gone?
But wow incredibly speedy and even a lot more stable? Thank you sangeet.003 and all the other FANTASTIC developers on this forum who keep me and my G1 busy with fun goodies.
Here is a oddball question, couldn't someone just create a update.zip with all this done? I'm not familiar with signing pkgs and what not. So I'm not 100%.
i'm a mac user.
but i kind of smart when it comes to these things so i got it to work.
but for other mac users do you think you can just up load the files and post the
adb commands.

I think i read somewhere that it wouldn't be possible because of how big the update.zip would be which is why when flashing Hero, you need the ext2 to store the apps_2
the great thing is, if you just keep testing, reading and messing around with running everything from roms, scripts, commands and tweaks, you eventually get things to work and and you find a huge satisfaction and semi-understanding of it all and you find yourself appreciating the developers here for their work.
Wow its four in the morning and i think im on a strong sugar high because i never post.
so changing the folder from rosie to files worked for you

well did a refresh of Hero and applied all the tweaks here (after renaming the folder as well) and all is wel. thanks a ton for this!
I was wondering if you could use app2sd after using this mod, or will this disable apps2sd?
Ok i did it and it works but there is a slight problem the messaging widget dosent show up. its completely gone. i read the batch file and its missing from the batch file. If you could re write it with the htc messaging app included then this app would be perfect. Or does anyone know how i could get the htc messagine widget back by myself

I think if you placed the "Files" folder onto c:/android (or wherever you put adb) and then:
adb push files/htcmsgwidgets.apk /data/app
that *might* work, not sure because I haven't tried it myself.

also in the batch file, the msg widget was not reinstalled onto internal memory(probably just forgot to add that line)
so I redid his batch file to include the 2 missing widgets as well as adding the line for the msg widget and changed the folder to files

just open the .bat file in text editor (.bat files are nothing more than text anyways) in there you can see each command that is run and do it yourself manually,...
yeah it's a ***** but I'm not about to figure out how to write a shell script for OSX on XP just to appease my old brethren, maybe pickup a copy of BBcode and insert the commands, don't know it that would even work, just a thought heh.

everything worked perfectly and 20 times faster not exact but i see a huge difference just now noticed that the messages widget was missing so bout to add that thanks to all developers working hard im sticking with hero i know people love it as much as I do so it has to keep getting better

Ok, so i renamed a default adw theme apk to .zip to unpack and add the images I want and change the orange glows etc after renaming back to apk cant install on phone 'problem parsing package' assuming this is because i unpacked it and re zipped / renamed to apk.
Is there another way of doing this?? Originally made the theme using template and eclipse / sdk with the adw theme template release package but when i install my app [which was packed unsigned as ive no idea how to go through this keymaker stuff] it cannot be installed on x10 [for 2.2] and you cant use the theme template in eclipse with 1.6 minimum it doesn't work and noticed on github site I got the template from [AnderWeb original] that it needs to be based on 2.2 but will work on 1.6 etc [it doesn't].. this was in the comments when ppl were getting errors in the manifest file, was becuase they set it for 1.6
So anyway aside from confusion I only need to change the png images surely theirs a simple way to unpack / explore and change the APK ??? Spent far too long getting nowhere now and killing chrome with over 50 web tabs and searches open lol
open the apk with 7-zip, and just drag the images straight into the archive - no need to unpack at all!
I'm using a modded theme, but have apks open with Winrar by default so don't need to rename them. When you open the apk leave it open whilst you work on it then once you've added your files just close and install it.
... And don't forget to sign it . Thats the reason you are getting this error.

you only have to sign it if your extracting it - keeping it open in winrar or 7zip your not doing that, so i tdoesnt need resigning

Might be as well re-downloading it to your phone and pulling it, I cant seem to find the default one on my phone but can see the one I modded.
What you using to pull it, as they are hidden in drawer the file manager i use to back up also doesnt see adw or its themes lol. I d/l the one i had from god knows what side cant find it now. Just goin g to mod a stock adw laucnher v1.1 apk see if that works also because the new version i had messed up alot of themes and not many are updated for it yet.

thanks.. now saying this application cannot be installed on this phone lol happy days! used winrar and zzip to open and add new images, very annoying now lol.
Uploaded the APK below
'ADW.Launcher could not be installed on this phone'
Would this be because its replacing a newer version? although it gets passed the promp telling me it will replace another app on the phone
Ok annoyd now uninstalled current adw and tried still wont install lol now im stuck with stock hope it keeps saved settings lol
how are you editing the archive im copy/pasting im my drawable-hdpi etc folders in which is replacing the old ones within the archive
When you modify the apk, theres something about the certificates that prevent you from installing a modified version. if u learn how to sign it ul b fine.. btw if there's a stock version u after let me know.. iv got quite a few of them! lol
Sent from my rooted 026 X10i using swype via Xda
Comparing files from the older apk and the one you posted, some of the file dimensions are different as in your images are bigger, and some of yours don't look right either, what are the little dashes dotted around some of them...
open it in photoshop its fine. Thats PNG transparency doesnt show in image viewer

Hi Its Moon Again :3
i saw many who wanted them, so I got the windows phone 7 keyboard sounds for everyone who want them!
They are meant for HTC_IME MOD
You can get from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=624416
There are both .wav and .ogg files
You Need the .ogg files for The IME mod ;D
Hope i was a help
Hi, Moon.
Having trouble with the zip.
Astro says can not find file type and my computer cannot extract them either.
Any ideas? Thanks!!
Oh! Sorry D: i check it now..
Hmm.. What do you use to unzip?
they work fine here (Both ubuntu and windows 7)
oh and they are meant to be extracted on the pc,
I'm running Windows 98. And winzip says its skipping the file because of unknown compression method.
Can you make this for the 2.3.3 gingerbread keyboard??
Oh Hi! i see you run CM7
Yes open Root explorer and go to "/system/media/audio/ui/" and rename every Ogg file from my zip to the right ones and overwrite those in the "ui" folder
REMEMBER TO BACK UP PLEASE ;3
Eh? Win98? x3 sorry but i think you should use 7zip it should work on older windows versions too,
Thanks for the update Moon.
7Zip worked for me!!
Your Welcome. and by the way i packed the .zip version wrong i re,upload it Too!

Emm, the Htc_ime mod i linked to on the first post is amazing Take the High_ress version
install it Put the .ogg files to /sdcard/media/audio and name them something easy
BTW the Htc_ime mod is 10 times better than the stock keyboard!
Hello everyone......if youre like me and just want to beat the crap out of a game that ticks you off sometimes then this is for you. This guide will explain how to edit the apk for fieldrunners hd. I will not supply or distribute the apk, so please do not ask.
First you will need the apk file you have purchased from android market. If you have an apk from amazon app store it will not work.
Start by changing the file extension from apk to .zip. Next, extract the contents of the file to a new folder on your desktop. (Folder can be named anything you like)
Open folder Assets>Data>HighResolution>Maps
Here you will find 4 folders....Cave, Crossroads, Drylands, Grasslands
Open the Folder for the level you wish to edit. (I will use grasslands as example for this guide)
Look for the files that have a ~map.mp3 extension. Open this file with a text editor like notepad. A few lines into the file will see this "startingHealth="20" startingResources="15". Change these values to anything you want them to be.
If you would like to modify the specs for the towers you can do this as well. I find it fun to make one weapon that just kills everything in one blow.
Open folder Assets>Data>HighResolution>Towers. Look for the tower you would like modify and open the file with a ~tower.mp3 extension in a text editor like notepad. Each tower will have one of these files for it. When opened look for <minDamage="129" maxDamage="129"> There will be a line like this for each level of tower, 1,2&3. Change he values to whatever you like, the higher the number the stronger the weapon.
Now that you have editied all maps and towers you want to it is time to button this up. Select all the files and folders you extracted from the zip file and create a new zip file. I use winzip with no compression. Name your new file whatever you like and save it to the desktop or a place you can find it. Now change the file extension of the new file from .zip to .apk. You will now need to sign the file, you will have to learn that in a different writeup. Once the file is signed it will install and you will see the changes in the game.
Good luck tinkering, do not post apk's here, and please act responsibly.

Dude...i have MIUI up and running...it is rooted, i am using root explorer. Everything is working untill i try to install the signed apk. I am using Andoid Commander to sign the apk...it is not working. Btw, i used the apk i found in the MIUI backup folder, because i could not find the APK in data/app...i know, it is strange...
Strange....i just went through MIUI and could not find the installed apk either. I will let you know when i find it.
EDIT - Found the apk in MIUI. Its is mnt/asec/com.subatomicstudios.com.

So, when i altered the files and so on, do i just deinstall the game? or are there other files i have to remove???
I have the amazon one, and it does not work. can someone pm me to the market version or this version? I've downloaded a few apk's already, and they seem to be the amazon version based on the file contents.
so I have the market apk, but I cannot get it signed properly. Tried zipsign 2, and install went ok, but app could not open. Tried signapk.exe and installed ok, but wont open.
after i re-zip the size changes by over 2mb under and will not install. I have re-signed it. What would cause the size change that much? it should be a few bytes.
Make sure you are zipping with NO compression.

you need a program to sign it. I finally figured out how to do this.
so to recap, after you made changes to all the files like (I just added 99999 starting money):
grasslands_extended~map.mp3
grasslands~map.mp3
crossroads_extended~map.mp3
crossroads~map.mp3
then you zip it with NO COMPRESSION (or "Store" with winrar)
then use this to sign it(This can be used to sign any apk file):
Mirrors
http://www.mediafire.com/?tj2dqjcrqfujxr7
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=GHYX0PRW
http://www.fileserve.com/file/F3GT3bK/SignApk-with-bat.zip
http://www.filesonic.com/file/1878513104/SignApk-with-bat.zip
Download file and extract to C:. You should have a folder called "C:\SignApk"
Here are the instructions I made on how to sign it:
1. Copy the apk file to C:\SignApk
2. Rename apk file to "application.apk", then run the "Sign-application.apk.bat". This will produce a "application-signed.apk" in the same folder.
The batch file can be ran under administrative mode if it does not work the first time.
Requires java, and I assume most people have that on their pc already.
EDIT: it took me a lot of research to figure this out as well. Figure I can provide a simpler walkthrough that people can follow.
I'm just wondering, but wouldn't it be easier to use something like GameCIH? It seems less intrusive and easier. If you've ever used cheat engine before, then gameCIH should be a breeze.
i get this message when i tried instal apk "There is a problem parsing the package"
can you all solve my problem??
Can someone post the modded apk in multiupload ? i'm trying with 1.04 version and it doesn't work. Thanks
Works like a charm. Now even my machine guns can take on the blimps in 1 shot
thanks popp. worked like a champ. fun for about 5 minutes, then you realize after modding the game, it just never ends. Cool to see though, since I couldnt get passed round 400 with the standard setup, now its just a matter of when I quit the game due to being bored
cool to hack as well!
how do you know where to find the address and specific string? for example you have a neew game installed and you want to mod it. how can you trace the source of gold, etc?
Here are the files to add to your framework-res.apk if you have a rooted rom. All you have to do is copy your framework-res.apk from the system and open it up in an apk editor then find the lockscreen files and replace them with these. Works really well. If I could get a screenshot of my lockscreen I would show you but I dont know how to do that.
Hey i was wondering if you could post a video or some screenshot of it in action because 3 white tiles with hexagons in them doesn't really give me a good idea of what it looks like.
Anyways nice work
Here is a link to the youtube video and a fix of the ring, I had my photoshop on the wrong layer. My bad! http://youtu.be/UUc1jVc_rAQ
Looks nice.
I had inverted the colors on mine... but the VR theme template didn't want to work for me and I got too lazy to modify the framework and re-flash it.
Question, were you able to edit the actual lock icon?
Because when I open it in Photoshop CS3 the transparency is messed up.
Also, if you have the Android SDK installed on your computer you can use it to take screen shots (even of the lockscreen), but I think a video is better for this.
Aright thanks for the video it looks sick

Thanks, work great.
can somebody post those images in a zip file?
Zip file but it is not flashable. It is just a zip file of 3 images.
just to say i might be getting a transformer tomorrow and also i used to do lots of themeing so i can tell you that the images are indexed so you need paint.net to open and save then open the new saved file in photoshop and edit.
these will be included in the metrocomb theme

Looks awesome! Is there any chance it could be made as a flashable zip? I wouldn't want to change framework Res then find I have to do it again when Rom is updated..
Many thanks all!

Great...I download an APK Editor, but is this true, that for every update we need tot change the framework again...
As requested above, a flashable zip would be realy great
I dont know how I would go about doing that.

You can save a copy of the one you modified, if no major changed in the framework, just push it again.
Actually you don't even need a apk editor. you can just rename the .apk to .zip, unzip it, do your thing, zip it back up and rename .zip to .apk.
Will Android install altered/unsigned .apk files? I'm not sure the unzip/alter/zip to apk method will work.
I used zipthemer from market to apply these and it worked fine. It makes an undo zip for you as well as creates a flashable zip for you to flash. I have attached flashable zip file for prime 1.9.1 rom as well as ziptheme zip file for whoever wants to use that. 152kb one is the zipthemer file. As usual make backups etc just in case.
