do you know how to do a restore for the LG Ally with this system dump?
if so, how? i've been looking and googling for days and this file has been the most helpful in my search for my missing files, i just need to know how to restore the phone cuz i reaaaallllyyyy messed mine up with deleting important things.
Ally apps from dump
I'm on a nonrooted Captivate using Android Central Sideload Wonder Machine, and have also tried Droid Explorer, neither can install any of the apps from the dump, does anything need to be done to the apk files before they can be installed?

I'm sure the Ally dump isn't de-odex'ed? To get these to work on another Android phone you need the odex files as well (apk and odex) and than they can work. As of right now the dump can only work on that particular phone, in this case the Ally.
EDIT: I was looking forward to this too. I want the clock/weather apk
I know it's a bummer huh, can't find too many good alternatives to these official widgets and programs, a lot of 3rd party ones work OK but they just don't feel as clean.
OP, can you get the odex files plz? That's the only way we can get these to run on a non Ally phone.

there is an odex file for every apk file in the app folder of the dump, if that's what you're looking for. like the weather widget you and I were both hoping for there's the apk for it "clockweatherwidget.apk" then an odex "clockweatherwidget.odex" right next to it. Forgive me if I'm not being of much use I'm just now venturing away from windows mobile.

The .odex's are included. Could you elaborate?
I have only been able to get two Ally app's functional on other phones. I had to resign them, they are Socialite and Divx Registration. Both have been posted in other threads.
I think the clock/weather widget will only work with the LG launcher.
Hey guys,
I have been trying out a few themes, and now would like to get the stock HTC Sense Weather Clock on top of the theme I have.
Problem is, I cannot find a flashable Zip of that anywhere. The closest thing I found had a transparent background and the stock white flip clock. Can someone please help me get the complete stock clock back that is preferably flashable?
Thank you very much in advance for your help!
Go rip it out of a stock rom.
Thank you for your response. Can you please tell me how I can do that?
Much appreciated Sir...
Sure man.
All roms are, are zips, so just open the zip and take the apk out of system/app/
Then, just adb push it to the system/app/ folder on your phone.
Way easy.
Thanks TJ,
I guess my question, if I were to elaborate more, would have been, exactly what files would I need to restore the clock back?
As in, the HTC Clock apk gonna be enough for me to get the old clock back, as in its appearance?
I am a novice to the Android world, but I would imagine the apk itself might not do much to appearance, but more just the functionality and the logic of the widget.
You are of course more knowledgeable, so can you confirm the files I would need to restore?
Thank you again for your help!
Yea, if you just push the HtcClockWidget.apk to the folder, it'll show up in your widget selection again.
However, the look of it is going to depend on your theme, and how the images in the com.htc.resources.apk are edited, because it has a lot of image files that the htc widgets pull from.
Hey everybody, this is my first post here.
I recently installed Rubix Focused and the Linear theme for it. All is well and good except that some of the edit menu icons are themed and some are not. This really bugs me and I wanted to change them all back to the stock icons. I've found the icons inside of the framework.apk inside the linear theme zip, but when I replace them via 7zip and try to reinstall the theme, they aren't changed and my phone pretty much flips out.
Also some of the icons for other programs (Gmail, others) are also changed, I'm assuming whatever would work to fix the ones inside the framework apk would also work for changing out the icons in those specific apps.
So how do I go about doing this? I thought it would be a simple fix but I'm thinking I'm missing something during the process.
If you use the rubix zip u flashed...
Open it up with 7zip and pull ouy everything but the framwork-res.apk
Then reflash the new zip. I believe u can do this...read it in this forum somewhere...

Would I be reflashing Rubix's framework or the theme's (Linear)? The modified icons came from the theme installation.
Use the rubix framework if you want them to look like the stock rubix icons.

I replaced the icons in the theme with the icons I wanted and replace the framework file in the original theme's zip and deleted everything else, keeping the file structure to the framework file intact. It freezes whenever I try to install it now.

What process and exact steps did you take to do this?
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App
Alrighty, I ended up getting something to work. I used another simple theme mod's zip file and replaced the framework file with mine and installed fine. I'm guessing it had to do with signage or something.j Would life have been made easier if I used apk manager?
Yes, if you are just replacing images, apk manager would probably make life easier...
Sorry I didn't think to mention this before... was just trying to think of the easiest method to get you back to where you wanted to be in terms of look/feel.
Ive been trying to change my pulldown menu to transparent without any luck! ive tried replacing the status_bar_background.png with one i made via Ninjamorph, and no luck.....i tried unzipping the "systemui.apk" and putting the png file in the drawable-hdpi folder and then zipping the systemui and renaming it to apk, and then replacing the current systemui.apk with the one i did using "RootExplorer", rebooted the phone, fixed permissions,rebooted again and still no change.....im using Eaglesblood 2.3.5 Rom!

If you're on the latest version 1.08 of Eaglesblood for 2.3.5, then just push this SystemUI.apk into /system/app , fix the permissions, and reboot, and it should do the trick.
The reason you were having trouble before is because the stock image is a .9.png...I won't go into the details of that, but a little extra work is needed to make those files work.
This file I've included should work for ya.

Ok, so you're on the latest version (1.08) of Eaglesblood for 2.3.5, correct? If you are not 100% sure, you can check in "About Phone" and check on the build.
Using the SystemUI.apk that I uploaded, what is your procedure for getting it into your phone?
Because that file has a transparent status_bar_background.9.png with correct patch handles drawn...not sure why it won't work. I will admit, that I don't have a 2.3.5 nandroid backed up to test. Anyone else?
I think I found the problem. Your rom's SystemUI/res/layout/status_bar_tracking.xml points to shade_bg.png for the background. I made that image transparent for you, and recompiled the apk. I really hope this works for you. I have to admit, I"m feeling rather dumb right now.
Yes I'm on 1.08 and my exact procedure was I downloaded the file on my phone, I went to root explorer to the xda download folder where it was located, I copied it to system/app and overwrote tthe current systemui.apk that was there, at that time, a constant endless force closes occurred so I had to pull my battery and rebooted that way, as it rebooted, the notification bar was gone, I then went to the systemui and changed permissions to where the first column is all checked and the first of the 2nd ccolumn is checked, I then pulled the battery again (cuz of the apn issue without the hard reset) and when it came back, nothing changed, so I fixed permissions via rom manager, to no avail......its frustrating!

holy crap it worked.....a million times THANKS!!! You effin rock dude! thanks for taking the time to help me! So to my understanding, u just edited the shade_bg file???? that was it??
Yeh, essentially, all I would have needed to do was edit that shade_bg.png file. But I didn't know to look there until I was forced to try to save face after giving you bad advice, lol. Now I know that some roms will point to status_bar_background.png, some will point to shade_bg, and some even simply define a hex color code...just have to decompile the SystemUI.apk, and look in res/layout/status_bar_tracking.xml to see where it's looking....and then edit that file.

so now that i know it works, i was wondering if i wanted to create one, do i make it 200 x 200 like the current shade_bg file is? i kinda want to make one with a black background with semi transparency! I tried editing the shade_bg file u made, with a program called Gimp, but it didnt work
Can you give me your exact method to doing this? I created an image from gimp, i saved it as shade_bg.png, so basically , i extracted the systemui.apk from root explorer, it put the extracted in my sd card, so i plugged in my phone in my mac, and i took that folder from my sd card, now from here, the extracted file is a zip file, so i double clicked it b/c macs can unzip files easily, so in the folder, i placed my shade_bg file into the appropriate folder.....now this is where i think i mess up, what do u do from here? I "compressed" the systemui folder to make it back into a zip, and then placed it into my sd card, i then "renamed" the file thru my phone from a .zip to a .apk, now in root explorer there is usually an icon that shows up next to the name of the files, now when i changed it, a green android icon showed up, but on the file that you had edited for me, there was a "settings" icon, u know, the standard icon for the settings app in android! i put the apk in the system/app and it didnt work, even after permissions set up! hmmm.....i promise, this will probably be my last post!
please keep in mind, i have a mac, and i do have that 7zip u mentioned in the development thread, but its called EZ7Z.....just in case i need it
If you are doing it the way you described, then you need to find a way to zip with no compression. 7 zip does that with the "store" setting...not sure about the mac version.
You don't wanna know where this was sent from.

anyone know how to convert a .zip to .apk correctly?
My first thread in this forum. Completely transparent widget extracted from another rom.
http://www.fileserve.com/file/2Qg75sB/SamsungWidget_WeatherClock.apk
Best way to install it is to get root explorer, go to system / apps and rename the existing SamsungWidget_WeatherClock.apk to SamsungWidget_WeatherClock.apk.bak as a backup in case you decide you want to go back to the stock widget. Now paste the downloaded file into the same location, go to the homescreen and add the widget. It should appear transparent.
Hope it helps.
Currently tested and working on cassies LA6 ultralight rom v8.
thanx working on LA4 deodexed too!
No, it works!
I tried to install it on XXLA4 (axlor4) and after rebooting, dragging the widget on my desktop displays an error message.

what error do you get? Also make sure the system / apps folder is writeable. Merely copying the file wont' cut it. I imagine you are rooted.
thanx very good
