[Q] How to browse an .apk on your desktop?

Hello everyone. Although n00bs aren't allowed here, I do want to ask you a question that might be very n00bish. And maybe a little inappropriate. Or asked in the wrong section of this forum.
But here it goes: I want to try and edit a savegame for a game on my HTC Hero (baseball superstar 2010). So, first I tried to locate where all the files for this game could be installed on my phone. I did not succeed.
But with help from this forum, I found out that I might find the files by using Astro File Manager. I can use this app to click on the .apk from the game, that I have on my sdcard, and then choose the option 'browse file'. There, I find a lot of files! So, the first problem is solved.
The second problem is, that I cannot edit any of the files I then find. And I cannot find a file that has the datestamp of today, or yesterday, when I last played the game. Shouldn't there be a very recent file with the saved game data in it somewhere?
For me, it would be a lot easier if I could browse the apk on my desktop with a simple explorer. But if I hook up my sd-card to my pc, I cannot open the .apk. How can I accomplish this?
I hope I gave a decent description of my problems, and hopefully anyone can help me with A) finding out which file to edit B) how to open or edit this file and C) what to edit!
Thank you all in advance for your time and patience.
Use 7zip to open/extract the .apk file. You can use winrar too, but I like 7zip better. I'll try to find a link in a minute, or you can always google it if I don't post back quick enough for you.
Your questions are reeallly noobish ;-P
Apk files store libraries and other static files of your applications - there you could find images, texts, code, etc., but not runtime data like savegames. Look into /data/{package-name}/ - you could find package name in many places, I think it's in Settings -> Manage applications, but I'm not sure.
Very noobish yes
I have done something in the meanwhile, and that is: buy the real deal from the market. I no longer seem to have the .apk, but that should be no problem. Now the real game is officially installed onto my phone.
But ... where? I have tried looking in /data with my file managers, but they say that the folder is empty! So... where are my apps installed then? They must be on my phone somewhere. Do I have to root my phone in order to see anything in the /data/folder?

I'm not sure, but I think so. This directory is read-protected, so apps can't steal data of other apps. And I've mistaken: it's /data/app/{package-name}.
Hmmm. Do you know a good way to do that? I have a HTC Hero with the 2.1-update1 firmware (so my phone tells me!).

I think I'm correct in saying yes. I use RootExplorer and can see my apks in data/app, but if I use AndExplorer I can't.

Hi There,
I've opened another thread to stop the clutter, but: I have installed Root Explorer and used (I thought) Universal Androot to root my mobile phone. It did install Superuser, but when I open Root Explorer, I don't get a prompt to put it on the superuser list... so nothing seems to work. Do you know what I should do, and how I can do that?

You might be best searching your phones forum for a solution unless someone can offer you help here.
Iirc, savedata and settings would be in /data/data/com.gamevil.bs2010/
probably in a folder named "files".
start by looking in there.
other apps would be in /data/data/[packagename]

[Q] Changing or deleting Parts of the Rom ?

Hey all,
I have been around here for some days now and got almost every Info I was looking for but now there is something...
I downloaded a Rom (Shipped and rebuild I think) and opened it with the HTC Image Editor. There I took the "os" and there the "imgfs"
There I found all the files, some where already known (the weather xml i.e.) and some I just messed around with after I extracted the files.
My Question now is : If I modify any file in this "imgfs" will it still be possible to flash this Rom ? And, is there a file that tells the Rom what to install ? Like a Autostart File or something ?
The Point is that I downloaded many very nice Roms from here and so on but every Time I find things I don´t need or I don´t want. So it would be nice to build my very own, small Rom just for me
I am 100% sure those Questions were asked already but I searched and searched... I really hope that someone here will grab his time and help me poor dummy out
Nice, very nice Forum !!
Thanks for any constructive Answer

Thanks.
Anyone???
I managed to add my font files to the font folder, on the phone...fonts are still not showing up right. What do i need to do to have the phone recognize the new installed files?
Am i posting in the wrong forum?
What i am asking is impossible to do??
No one around here wants to help???
I'd like to help, but I have no idea how.
A quick Google search found this, though.
