[MOD]/[HOWTO] Mod HTC Browser to allow 16 windows instead of 4

TomLeeDesire helped me figure out how to tweak an HTC Browser.apk to allow 16 windows instead of 4.
If you're interested in increasing the maximum number of windows, there are four lines in two files within Browser.apk that need to be modified.
I made these changes to the HTC Browser.apk from VaelPak 3.2 RC 1, but it should work on any HTC Browser. 0x10 is 16 in hex, so you can make this value whatever you want. If you get above 25 or so open windows, the browser tends to crash.
com.android.browser.TabControl
.constructor()
Line 52: Change "const/4 v2, 0x4" to "const v2, 0x10"
.canCreateNewTab()
Line 565: Change "const/4 v0, 0x4" to "const v0, 0x10"
.createNewTab()
Line 618: Change "const/4 v1, 0x4" to "const v1, 0x10"
com.android.browser.htc.ui.ImageSlider
.add()
Line 658: Change "const/4 v3, 0x4" to "const v3, 0x10"
Once you know where to look, the changes are pretty easy with APKTool (just use version 1.3.1, since 1.3.2 has a bug and doesn't seem to work correctly).
Here is an HTC Browser.apk with these changes, along with some LowRider menu icons thrown in.
EDIT: This is not an installable apk, because the certificates won't match. You need to have a rooted phone and use ADB to overwrite /system/app/Browser.apk (Make a backup first, of course.)

Wow, thank you so much for this. I have been wondering how this was done for awhile.
Thanks again!

Thank you so much for this.
Thanks again!

Hey, I have tried to install the APK file on my phone but keep getting an error saying "Application not installed". I'm a noob, so sorry if this is a dumb question. I'm using the HTC Desire HD

Thanks, very handy

thank you I was searching for this mod a long time.
I have a htc desire hd. when I try to install with estrongs it says not installed.
when I open your apk file in astro it says version 2.2.1 is installed and the version of your apk is 2.2 . its logic that it does not install. is your apk compatible with desire hd?

Do i need to be rooted for this to work? I haven't tried it yet, but it's definitely something that i would find extremely handy.

I just used ADB to overwrite the Browser.apk in my /system/app
I don't know if this will work on a non-rooted phone.
I'll see if I can figure out how to make this an installable app.

It looks like this will only work if you have a rooted phone.
Android won't let you update your current browser with this one, because the certificates won't match once it's modified. HTC would have to resign the app with these changes in order for it to work.
I believe the only way to replace your Browser.apk app is to have a rooted phone and then overwrite the Browser.apk in /system/app.

wow awesome thnx!

You need to use ADB to push the file to /system/app/Browser.apk (after making a backup first).
Installing this as a regular apk won't work, since I can't sign it with the HTC certificate. Android will only upgrade an app if the certificates match.

Ok, cool. At least I know that now. I'll give it a try as soon as I can. Thanks.

Thanks! I do get force close on my DHD thought will try to modify the browser myself.

Thanks for clearing up the will it/won't it work on an unrooted phone. Looks like I'll just have to get on with the rooting.

i tried editing browser.apk like how you suggested, and i can successfully overwrite it. But i dont see the internet browser on my device, i mean it's as if i never installed it..

honestly i have too many tabs already. Is there a way to make them all close when i exit the browser? I don't like opening my browser and seeing maybe 5 tabs from some**** i was looking at 3 days ago.

Did you sign it before you put it back? Also, you should probably clear Dalvik cache and reboot.

[MOD] * Removable full battery charge notification * [10/09/11]

Also posted in i9000 dev section:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1295748
You may want to clear the battery fully charged notification when phone is on dock, or it doesn't go away even if unplugged. This mod fixes these.
NOTE: I didn't remove the notification, because I think it a better solution to leave the user this option rather than completely removing it.
* baksmali classes.dex in SystemUI.apk
* open com\android\systemui\statusbar\policy\StatusBarPolicy.smali
* search for "iget v3, v2, Landroid/app/Notification;->flags:I" at around line 1824, under
.method private addFullChargeNotification()V
* remove the following 3 lines:
iget v3, v2, Landroid/app/Notification;->flags:I
or-int/lit8 v3, v3, 0x2
iput v3, v2, Landroid/app/Notification;->flags:I
* save, smali, and update apk
Now you know the trick. SystemUI would make the full charge notification as on-going (flags = flags|0x2), and we simply convert it back to default.

Nice job bro
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997R using xda premium

thanks for the tutorial. the line numbers may differ from firmware to firmware. can you tell us what .method it falls under?
there is a .method private removefullbatterynotification ( or something to that effect) in there that is supposed to be invoked by .method private finalupdatebattery (or something like that) can't see why these aren't running properly and I had no ideas on how to interperet the flags. this is a great solution but have you tested it fully?
on simply honey I have had problems mounting the sd card when the battery is full. I intend to try this and if it works ill finally update the rom and credit this thread. if the sd card doesn't mount ill have to keep trying.

it's under .method private addFullChargeNotification()V
the ongoing flag is removed when the notification is created.
I tested it w/ GSInfuse 1.1 and it worked well. No effect with other functions e.g. usb storage / sd card. (In fact, testing costed me much more time than developing as I had to charge up to full from 20%..) In fact it shouldn't since what it does is just remove the ongoing flag of the notification, nothing else.

Worked for me using dlev rom, the 3 lines were identical.
Here's what i did, maybe the OP can add it to his post.
-Install 7 zip
-Open SystemUI.apk with 7zip
-Extract classes.dex
-Download baksmali and smali.bat from the link HERE.
-place the extracted classed.dex in the services folder (from above link)
-run baksmali
-open the out folder (above link) navigate to \out\com\android\systemui\statusbar\policy
-open StatusBarPolicy.smali in wordpad
-search for "iget v3, v2, Landroid/app/Notification;->flags:I" at around line 1824, under
.method private addFullChargeNotification()V
-remove the following 3 lines:
iget v3, v2, Landroid/app/Notification;->flags:I
or-int/lit8 v3, v3, 0x2
iput v3, v2, Landroid/app/Notification;->flags:I
-save the file
-run smali.bat
-open systemui.apk in 7zip
-drag the new classes.dex file from the "new" folder from the link you downloaded into the systemui.apk in 7zip.
-put the modified systemui.apk into your rom or change with root explorer and reboot.

Wow, way complicated!

I have to fight to use MY COMPUTER. My wife and son are both in college now and are always on it. Time to go shopping for a new one. Hehehe. Thanks Bandit, I will try it and if it works I will put it in the update. I will definitely give mrzzheng credit for finding fix and you credit for fixing it for DlevROM.
I'm not a developer but I try to play one on XDA.

you need to decompile classes.dex.
I guess this can be done with smali and recompiled wth baksmali.
it can be done with apkmanager or apk tool as well but apkmanager doesn't make a working apk for me. it is always missing META-INF folder and the permissions are all wrong. if you must use apk manger the trick is to make a copy of the original apk and take the unsignedrepackaged.apk and pull out classes.dex and merge it into the original SystemUi.apk.
I was messing with this mod earlier but tried to test It in the new simply homey release that's in the vibrant forum and ussing hellraiserb9 but had bootloops. too many changes from my last release of simply honey. I didn't have time to debug. well tomorrow is another day.

Google smali and baksmali. its classes.dex you need decompiled. you can open the apk with an archive manager to find classes.dex decompile it with smali. edit the smali explained in the op and use baksmali to recompiled a new classes.dex add it back to the apk with an archive manager.
if you hate command line the apk manager can do this too but it can be a whole new can of worms.
ya know what. what Rom do you want to run? ill send you a systemui.apk just give me the Roms name.

It's the other way around. Baksmali decompiles and smali compiles. Check out my post i tried to simplify ro rather extend the instructions.

I'm running an I9000 rom called S.U.R.F.A.C.E. with a blue theme from pauldiddy which is saposedly sapose to run on a jvs rom but surface is jvr (or vice versa) but works just fine. I think I can pull the best thing I can do is pull systemUI I'm useing from my phone that way nothing changes due to some of my own mods to the theme would prob work best.
Big dog Infuse I997 doin some Hellraising

I'm using Simply Honey 5.1 from the i9000 forums. I like this method, but the way I usually do it is to pull the APK onto my netbook (native Linux), use a zip manager to pull the classes.dex out, use baksmali to decompile, fix, recompile with smali and drop back in the APK. then I use adb to push (adb push ./SystemUI.apk /system/app/SystemUI.apk) and reboot as it removes my notification bar. Then I test it.

I'm gonna give this a try. thanks for the hard work

Having done this, I have a renewed appreciation for those who recompile apk's for ROMs.

Modified Gmail.apk for downloading attached '.zip', '.tar', etc. files

Edit: Updated post with Gmail 4.5.2 -- thank you lmasagao for modifying the latest version!
Hello all,
Yesterday, I discovered that the Gmail app refuses to open or save attached zips (or other archives) because they "could contain malicious software." But sometimes I need to download such files anyway, so I modified the latest Gmail.apk to remove the restriction and thought I'd share. This is based off Gmail 4.2.1 and should work on most devices.
This will allow you to download attachments that were previously disallowed by the Gmail application. You will need another app that is capable of opening a zip/tar/etc file installed.
Disclaimer: I am not responsible for whatever happens as a result of using this modified version. If it goes crazy and emails embarrassing photos to all of your contacts it is neither my nor Google's fault.
That said, the changes are pretty minor and so far seem to work as expected.
Installation:
Uninstall existing Gmail app. If Gmail came pre-installed you must delete it from /system/app (root required)
Install Gmail-zips-[version].apk as normal.
Enjoy.
Modifications Made:
These instructions are only necessary if you wish to modify the APK yourself, otherwise see above.
Decompile Gmail.apk:
Code:
apktool d Gmail.apk
Replace the following from 'smali/com/google/android/gm/provider/MimeType.smali' and 'smali/com/android/mail/utils/MimeType.smali':
Code:

const-string v1, "application/x-gzip"

*This seemed like the correct place to post since the modification applies to any device, but I apologize if this post belongs in another forum*

I wanted to download a zip file, that I sent to myself from work and discovered this really stupid feature of Gmail,
A quick search did not reveal a solution, other than installing a different mail client or using a browser, great to see you were successful in hacking the .apk - going to download it a give it a try now.
The file you attached appears to be the old 4.1.2 version, not the latest 4.2.1
I tried using apktool to decompile gmail 4.2.1 and edited MimeType.smali
but when I try and recompile it I get an error:
I: Building resources...
C:\apktool\working\com.google.android.gmail\res\xml\gmail_widget_info.xml:2: error: No resource identifier found for attribute 'widgetCategory' in package 'android'

Sorry about that -- must have pulled the /system/app version. I updated the OP with Gmail 4.2.1.
As far as the error you describe, unfortunately I didn't see the same issue. I'm using apktool v1.5.2. I did have to upgrade my SDK tools to 21.0.1 before it would build the new version.
In 4.2.1 there's another smali file that needed to be changed as well: 'smali/com/android/mail/utils/MimeType.smali'

Can we update the App after replacing it ...??

If you modified the version you have installed yourself, and later update it to a new version you modified yourself, then yes-- you will be able to update it. (This is because the application must be signed with the same key in order to update normally.)
If you have the official version or the version I posted, just uninstall the old version before installing the new one and it will work.

[N7100][MOD][KK][4.4.2] Disable Increasing Ringtone

Good morning buddys, here you got the holy MOD to our N7100 Galaxy Note II
Now, here we go!
You'll need:
SecTeleService.apk
HoloxTool_v1.0.1
1. Download and decompress with WinRAR to your desktop the "HoloxTool_v1.0.1" file.
2. Open “SecTeleService.apk” with WinRAR and take the “classes.dex” file to your folder “dex” (within “HoloxTool_v1.0.1”).
3. Run "HoloxTool.bat" and choose option "2".
4. Go to: “HoloxTool_v1.0.1\database\dex\classout\com\android\phone" and open: “Ringer$2.smali” file.
5. Search the line:"invoke-virtual {v2, v7, v3, v4}, Landroid/media/AudioManager;->setStreamVolume(III)V" and delete the whole line:
.line 1038
iget-object v2, p0, Lcom/android/phone/Ringer$2;->this$0:Lcom/android/phone/Ringer;
iget-object v2, v2, Lcom/android/phone/Ringer;->mAudioManager:Landroid/media/AudioManager;
invoke-virtual {v2, v7, v3, v4}, Landroid/media/AudioManager;->setStreamVolume(III)V
.line 1039
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
- File must be like this:
.line 1038
iget-object v2, p0, Lcom/android/phone/Ringer$2;->this$0:Lcom/android/phone/Ringer;
iget-object v2, v2, Lcom/android/phone/Ringer;->mAudioManager:Landroid/media/AudioManager;
.line 1039
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
6[FONT=&quot]. Save changes[/FONT][FONT=&quot] and recompile pressing the option "3" in “HoloxTool_v1.0.1” menu.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]7. Copy the “new-classes.dex” file (in “HoloxTool_v1.0.1\database\dex”) to your desktop and rename it to “classes.dex”.[/FONT]
[FONT=&quot]8. Open“[/FONT][FONT=&quot]SecTeleService.apk” with “WinRAR” and pass the “classes.dex” file[/FONT]
9. Now you can pass the "SecTeleService.apk" to your system/priv-app folder with RootExplorer or to your favourite ROM.
[FONT=&quot]Thats all [/FONT]

This means we can fix the ringtone problem like the ringtone volum is low during initial ring then suddenly jump to loud ring volume problem?

You need to decompile the apk.

I'm on stock 4.4.2 and can't find SecTeleservices.apk anywhere - could someone tell me where do I get it from ? I've checked system/apk and it's not there. No clue

Enable Ripple ink effect with fingers or without S-Pen on Note 3 4.4.2 Kitkat

Hi all, I am a newbie and this thread is about enabling the Ripple ink effect with fingers or without S-pen on Note 3 Kitkat.
My Note 3 details:
Variant: SM-N9005,
ROM: Stock odexed ROM-rooted,
Firmware: N9005XXUGNG1,
Region: BTU.​
Thanks to:
@kenet for Activating Ink effect with fingers (4.3)
Their might be other ways to implement it. but I am writing the steps which I have followed.
You Need:
1. Windows PC.
2. JRE installed.
3. Download aapt.exe here, apktool.jar here, baksmali.jar and smali.jar files here.
So here is the step by step guide on how to do it.
1. copy framework folder (/system/framework) from your Note 3 to the folder (say, C:\apktool\system\framework) in your PC.
2. copy the com.sec.android.visualeffect.odex and com.sec.android.visualeffect.jar from Framework folder to aoktool folder (C:\apktool), now baksmali the com.sec.android.visualeffect.odex present in C:\apktool folder using the command
Code:
[/B][B][COLOR="Red"]java -jar baksmali.jar -d C:\apktool\system\framework -x com.sec.android.visualeffect.odex[/COLOR][/B]
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
-d path of directory where framework files are placed.​-x target .odex file (in our case it's com.sec.android.visualeffect.odex)​3. once command is completed, you will see a folder named out .
4. Navigate to C:\apktool\out\com\sec\android\visualeffect\rippleink, and open the file RippleInkRenderer$DVFSHandlerForRipple.smali.
5. Open the file and search for const/16 v9, 0x4002
Code:
[/B][B]
const/16 v9, 0x4002
[COLOR="Red"]
if-ne v8, v9, :cond_ca
[/COLOR]
.line 669[/B]
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
6. Change the red line to, as shown below.
Code:
[/B][B]
const/16 v9, 0x4002
[COLOR="blue"]
if-ne v9, v9, :cond_ca
[/COLOR]
.line 669
[/B]
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
7. Once changes are done, smali the out folder present in C:\apktool using the command
Code:
[/B][B][COLOR="Red"]java -jar smali.jar -o classes.dex out[/COLOR][/B]
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
-o the name of newly created .dex file.​out is the folder name.​8. Once you see the classes.dex file in the folder, then push this .dex file into com.sec.android.visualeffect.jar file using the command
Code:
[/B][B][COLOR="Red"]aapt add com.sec.android.visualeffect.jar classes.dex[/COLOR][/B]
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
9. This is deodexed .jar file, and you can directly push this jar into your phone path /system/framework using RootExplorer and set the permission to rw-r--r--, and delete the com.sec.android.visualeffect.odex file from the framework folder.
Restart the phone, and you should be able to use ink effect with fingers.
10. If you want to create the com.sec.android.visualeffect.odex file from the com.sec.android.visualeffect.jar file then their are few more steps, which involves busybox, but this jar will work fine, please delete or remove the com.sec.android.visualeffect.odex file from the framework folder and keep only com.sec.android.visualeffect.jar, because this jar is deodexed and working fine for me.
P.S: This will not work if you have changed the ro.product.name or ro.product.device in build.prop
Update:
As i have told that I am new here and I don't know how to make an Xposed module.
Can anybody make an Xposed module for this and give credit?

I'm using a Note 3 from T-Mobile on the stock NK3 4.4.2 update.
I've tried this a long time ago and failed, I tried a week ago and failed, any insight as to where I should look to possibly accomplish this awesome task?

Nop. That's jar file.
You first decompile/Backsmali the .odex file and send me "ippleInkRenderer$DVFSHandlerForRipple.smali" file.

Search in RippleInkRenderer.smali and try changing it.
Since I don't have that firmware I can't try.
