[REQUEST] CityID.apk

Yes, this is the first time someone actually wants CityID. It's the only thing stopping me from applying the latest update.zip. I've been searching for quite a few hours to no success. Every search I've tried to find the stock CityID app has only led to how to remove it. These all would have been helpful to see before I deleted it through Titanium rather than renaming it. The couple of installs I found have been for other phones, none of which have allowed me to bypass the step in Recovery. Would anyone kindly upload the stock CityID, or even point me in the direction of it. I'm assuming I can just place it back in /system/app/ correct?

I'll add my request to this as well so this topic stays near the top!
I'm also stuck at this error trying to install the new update.zip! I've been doing searches as well and haven't been able to find CityID.apk anywhere!
I'm also assuming that you can just do an adb push of the apk back into the /system/app directory.... fingers crossed!

Try the HeyItsLouFroyo Rom thread in the dev section. He has a zip file of removed apps. Didn't look. But I think it's in there since he said he removed it.

Unlike the others, this one installed successfully through ASTRO. Going to try it out. Thanks a lot, whether it works or not.

Install was a success. fader01, I award you all of my internets, I cannot thank you enough.

[Q][Request] Stock droid charge boot animation

Does anybody happen have the stock charge bootanimation.zip and the boot sound wav files?
Much appreciated!
Edit: Never mind I found them. But is there any way to edit the boot file to make it blue instead of red? I'm trying but I can't seem to find out how.

Mind directing me to where you found the stock boot animation for the charge?

No way to edit .qmg files without qmage software...which is proprietary...which means it's expensive. Samsung mainly uses this devil-spawn file format in their Bada OS.
Edit:I spoke with a couple guys ok the Bada forums (rather I PMed them a few months back) who have edited these files and never received an answer from them. Perhaps you might have better luck...perhaps not.

Everything you need should be in this zip, both qmg files and the power on.wav
Just extract and place the files where they need to go.

Any issues with these files in gingerbread? I am currently using Humble 3.1. Thanks for providing the zip. Still no answer from the Bada forums?

I did get a reply linking me to a theme developing tool for bada, cant remember the name off hand...it does handle .qmg files however there is no direct front end to manage it and i am far to inept to try and break down and isolate the code needed for this...
So essentialy, no lol

I'm not sure if the custom ROMs will support the qmg boot anis. I haven't tried them.
The worst I can see happening is it won't work and you'll end up withe the plain android boot, or it will and it will be "watermarked" with the android. Somewhere in the past there was a post floating around on how to fix the "watermarked" boot but I can't remember where I saw it. Hope this is helpful

TMobile Theme Chooser

UPDATE: Doesn't work, but maybe it could be made to work? See last posts.
I just have a question about installing the theme chooser on any rooted and deoxed ROM. Is it possible? I'm running one of jboxers roms. I saw one thread here at xda about it but the guy was asking about sense roms.

It can be installed on any ROM based off of the CM7 source. (I think it can at least, I've never tried it on MIUI but you don't need it there)

No, it has to be coded into the rom to work.

What needs to be changed in the rom? Is it edits to the framework? If I can do it, it would be an interesting project to try.

It would be cool to see a stockish ROM with that kind if theme support. I did read elsewhere it needs some frameworks found in cm7.

Try to push it to a stock room with adb. It will fail, and somewhere it will say why. Fix the why.
I haven't got the slightest idea as to what exactly the theme chooser relies on.

I'd be happy to help with this. I have adb installed and am wanting to learn ROM development anyways. I can figure out how to work adb this weekend and try then. Does anyone know where I can get a theme chooser apk?
One more question, does theme chooser need adw launcher?

Search Google for "T-Mobile Theme Chooser." It was code written by T-Mobile for their phones. That is what CM7 and others use to implement this feature. It requires the framework to be decompiled and recompiled with support code for the theme chooser. It is just not installing a program. it is very technical and not easy to do.

Tried Install
So I gave it a shot and this is what I end up with. I'll google around to see what this means, if it means anything more than its face value might suggest.
pkg: /data/local/tmp/ThemeChooser.apk
Failure [INSTALL_FAILED_SHARED_USER_INCOMPATIBLE]
Edit: Looked around some more and found this thread on the error:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=640592&page=54
To quote Brut.all there "I think "INSTALL_FAILED_SHARED_USER_INCOMPATIBLE" is straightforward: Android refuses to install apk with UID if it has different certs than already installed app."
and Daneshm90 "Yup so u got 2 options,
1. Find all the apks that have the same uid and resign them with the same keys
2. Remove the uid from the manifest and hope it works"
I am not sure exactly where to go from here. Is there a tool that would let me open up the APK and see the UID?

You cannot install it. Has to be a system app with changes to the system framework. Very difficult to do.

Considering T-mobile created the Theme Chooser code for their phones, i was just wondering, I have a T-mobile Optimus T running 2.3.3 stock, would there be a way to make this work for me??

Requires modifications to the framework to work.

framework changes
would it be possible to insert only those specific entries to the framework and make this work? its really the only reaon anymore i prefer to use a rom, considering 2.3.3 has fixed many of the bugs that originally made me switch.

In theory yes, but if you were good enough at ROM development to be able to do so, you wouldn't be asking these questions. Even if you want to learn, start with something easier.

LMAO!
lmao most deffinetely, ive never developed anything for android, i used to be an apple junkie, up until a couple months ago haha, but im sure it not a simple as copy and paste, so i was just asking. but what exactly does a framework consist of??

I believe the theme chooser was developed by T-Mobile in Europe for their Android phones there. I don't believe ever implemented into a TMO USA device officially.

well it just so happens that i have the p500 factory 2.3.3 flashed on my p509 now right now, since they dont have an official tmo version yet. but it is european based, so what im wondering is, would that already be incorporated into the "ROM" inces its european, or maybe not conidering the p500 isnt a t-mobile phone, and both prerequisites arent met, 1. european firmware, and 2. t-mobile branded
what do yall think??

[Q] INSTALL stock ICS phone apk

Hello,
Can somebody please guide me through the steps needed to install stock ICS phone apk on my htc one x (ATT)
I have the apk but i am unable to install. I purchased root explorer, renamed the phone apk and the phone.odex file tried to install but it says unable to install.
What am I doing wrong?
Thank you so much in advance.

bump to this, I'd like to know as well. Also would be nice to get that apk if there ends up being a viable way to get this done. I'd like to have google voice vmails integrated in the dialer!

Main reason why im so interested

i can tell you its not as easy as overwriting the phone.apk with the stock ics phone.apk. and you would also need the stock ics contacts.apk i think.

Any chance to get all? Stock ICS on HOX is very good idea.

I dont really know much about where this stands or if it's currently possible, but if you head over to the development threads, you'll probably find a lot of folks working on it, or at least mimicking it through custom ROMs. Good luck.

Maybe you should post your questions in the Q&A section

Advanced Power Menu MOD for ATT HOX

Hi All,
Please help me to find the APM Mod for my ATT HTC One X running on Clean ROM 6.5 (Based on 3.17 base).
I have searched in the XDA threads but they are not for ATT HOX.
Thanks in Advance!!
Thanks and Regards,
Sathish.

It has to be ported over. I actually want this and notification toggles too. Anyone know how to port them?
Sent from my HTC One XL using Tapatalk 4

Not sure exactly, but there's apps from the Play Store that offer notification toggles. Not the same, but you can use quick boot to boot in recovery and such. There's likely not going to be an available mod for it, because CleanRom ended development for our device.
Sent from my evita

APM requires smali code, xml files and png images to be added to framework-res.apk and code added and edits to android.policy.jar and toggles require smali code, xml files and png images in the systemui.apk. You will need to decompile them first. It is a quite involved proccess.

Ive always wanted to port them i was always used to having it on other phones. Might be too much for me right now tho lol. Only ever ported something once

Here is what I did and how I started to learn about these mods.
Google the app beyond compare and download it.
I'm assuming you know how to use apk tool if not there is enough info around that I'm not going to get into explaining that.
Find a Rom that has the mod your looking for. Make sure the Rom are on the same version ie 4.1.1.
Decompile the modded apk and the one from the Rom you want to add to.
Open beyond compare and select a folder compare add the entire decompiled folder for both apks and go through and look at the difference between the two apks. There are different ways you can choose to make the compares I usually choose binary compare to get the most accurate look at the diffs.
Some things related to the mod will be easy to find others will take a little longer.
Make the the edits to your unmodded apk and compile it and test it.
If it fails to compile or doesn't work when installed on phone then you missed something go back and go through it again.
It is a trial and error process but this is how I learned.
It should be noted most of these mods took someone quite a while to actually code from scratch with no reference so using it for your own personal use is fine but if you plan on publicly releasing it do the right thing and make sure you get permission from the original creator before making anything public that you did not make yourself.
Hope this helps.
