[Q] Using app from another device? - Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]

Hope this is the right section as I posted this in the Epic 4G General section and had 50 views and no replies lol
"Ok I'm looking to spend free time trying to port apps and widgets to the epic. So are there any threads to instruct and teach me how to get into this Want to "sign"? a widget so I can use it on my epic
So I've tried to search and havent found a post in here or the dev section on how to do this. Can someone please assist me in finding the right place to start?
Thanks
"
That was the question originally
Any help is appreciated.
Is this thread where I need to be looking?

Thanks again

Bueler?.....Bueler?

I think that you don't need to resign the apk.... just install them..... if they don't work maybe is because they need resource not avaible on phone or different from the original

Thats the thing tried to just install and it fails, tried pushing it to system/app and it doesnt work tried pushing to data/app dont work either argh lol

weather database editor

How do you install weather database editor on alltel htc touch pro? I know this is stupid but I am new to the smartphones and cant seem to figure it out. I want to add my city to the weather app on the phone. I have downloaded and installed compact framework 3.5 and have downloaded wde 1.1 modified but cant figure out how to transfer it to the phone. I have read through post after post on this subject and cant seem to find the trick. Everything I have read just says install it but doesn't tell you how. Can anyone help me?
No one here can help a noob install this program?
think it's more a problem of nobody knowing any "weather database editor" program rather then people not being able to help you install a program
This is what I am trying to do. Any help would be great.

Friendly advice....
Might be a good idea to post this question in the thread that pertains to it instead of starting a new one, but make sure you have read and re-read the posts to make sure it wasn't already answered. Good luck.

Help please!! samsung i897 captivate

Hi guys i'm nes on this forum, i'm italian and i have a samsung captivate i897, i also take this opportunity to introduce myself...
Now i expose you the problem:
i have a i897 captivate marked AT&T for this i have a problem to fix the GPS and to install applications outside the market, I would like you to help me to make clean OS from the applications AT & T and put in i897 a i9000 ROM not rooted...please guys help me, and thanks in advance
1. Read the new owners guide.
2. This forum is about learning things by yourself. Don't expect to be spoonfed.
3. Custom ROM always =Rooted mind you.

I read the guide but i'm desperate,do you recommend something? can u post the link of the better rom and kernel that i can use? im noob in android world
I can't recommend anything man. Everything is good.
You have to discover by yourself what suits your needs.

the new user guide (that i wrote) teaches about stickies! and where to find them!
find the stickies in the captivate general, q&a and dev forums they have all the answers you are looking for and way more.
go. read. learn.
this is really basic stuff. At&t does not like you installing apps not from the market "its called side loading" you need to be rooted to fix it and there are pleanty of guides "one click root has an option to enable non market apps" to get a different rom go to the dev sectoin chose a rom and follow the simple directions or for a guide for the entire process http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=884364
Assuming what you meant was that you want ATT's crap taken off and a new ROM...
Why would you not want your device rooted? If voiding your warranty is a concern it's fine, there are plenty of methods to return back to stock Eclair/Froyo. And there really isn't a ROM out there that's head and shoulders over the rest, you're going to have to play around and see which one you like the feel of the best. Try out a different ROM every couple of days and see how you like it.

If you are asking someone to help you build a rom well... I don't think that will happen. You can go to samfirmwares.com and download a stock i9000 rom, but without root you, and if you don't know how to build to incorporate the home button and haptic feedback fixes, your phone won't work right. My suggestion is to go to this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=948790
They are all stock i9000 roms with only busybox and root installed. I'm using the stock jvh on my captivate, at the moment, and it works great. You will have to deal with root. It's better to be rooted anyway.

Only replying to that small part of your post, and correcting you by saying no, you don't need to be rooted to sideload applications. SWM (Sideload Wonder Machine) can do it so long as you have the drivers installed and USB Debugging on. I installed several applications as soon as I got the phone, long before I ever rooted my phone, much less installed a custom ROM on it.

Why didn't you use google? There are plenty of places that explain how to root that aren't on this site, which is more an "advanced" place anyways(I use that term loosely, but I get the idea that people here assume you know a little about your phone).
Check out MobileTechVideos, the guy who does those had a three-part, in-depth ROM flash set of videos that explain exactly how to use One-Click to Root.
Edit:
Christ dude, use some decent punctuation and at least attempt to be succinct in your requests. Freaking out isn't going to get you anywhere.

[Q] Clean up?

Is there a way to remove the crappy apps that come on the phone? I can't seem to figure it out.
Not until u root the phone, which at the moment you cant.
Download quick info pro.. and use the cache clear app, it helps you keep your phone clean... works well on the sensation!!
Ugh...c'mon root! Effin bloatware needs to go, perma-like

Need for Speed Shift

I've done 3 searches in the g2x forums and only found some threads where people were requesting it for another device. i installed a custom rom with the game removed and want to install the game but cant find it in the g2x forums for some reason. Any one with a direct link or the .apk file ?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=13226389&postcount=8
there's a thread called "original .apk files here" in this section.
youre awesome thanks
you're welcome. i am but a lowly troll
can you please help me with reinstalling directions?

Please help. Need to go back to stock evo

Hello everyone,
Can someone please point me to a stock 4.24.651.1 rom? I need to get my phone back to stock. I rooted with unrevoked. I can only find odex or deodex (sorry if wrong) versions. I would like the original unrroted version if it is out there. Please, I have searched and just cant find what I am looking for. Even just a point in the right direction would help as I just can figure this out!!
1st wrong section
2nd you didn't look to hard
3rd - here you go - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=780141
I tried that and followed that video already. I cant find the stock rom that is not rooted and some of the info I found there seemed out of date with a rom that was to old to use according to my phone. Im sorry if this is the wrong section. Im not sure shere to post. I thought this would be the appropriate section since I found a lot of ROM stuff here. I would be happy to post elsewhere if I knew the right place to post.
Maybe you were looking for this?

Keep in mind, if you are rooted, you will lose it. If you install any of the 4.2 ones you wont be able to root it again until they come up with one.
YES!!! Thank you, I believe that is what I need. I really appreciate you pointing me to that site. For some of us who dont get on the threads alot it can be a bit frustrating trying to find the right info. I appreciate your help and not slamming me for asking my question.
Nobody will "slam" you for asking questions but thy will for posting in the wrong section. But it was nice for Chamala to answer your question and let you know it was the wrong section.

Another mirror and a great resource: http://goo-inside.me/supersonic or just http://goo-inside.me if you want to browse all they have to offer.
Also this thread in these very forums: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=884060
I don't bother fighting the wrong forums, not searching, etc anymore. It's not worth the effort and XDA mods don't really care anymore, especially with the EVO becoming a budget phone.
