[Q] HELP - But where did android.policy.jar in Marshmallow ? - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everyone,
I recently posted on the forum a call for help that has not received a real answer ... and I'm still looking after a real answer ... ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/help/help-how-to-3-reboot-marshmallow-stock-t3246578 )
After various research I realized that the file android.policy.jar had completely disappeared from the new version of Android : Android Marshmallow
I am convinced that its functions must be found somewhere, but I really don't know where.
So, impossible for me to make my "3-way Reboot" on my Nexus 5.
I'm almost certain, in view of many topics on how to make reboot options, as people here have an answer to that, that's why I allow myself to insist and to open another topic on this issue ... but where is android.policy.jar ???
Does anyone have the answer here is what anyone would want to answer me please? :good:
Thank you in advance for all those who will contribute their knowledge on the subject :laugh:

Can anyone help with Eclipse?

I'm just wanting to change up some font colors and grahics on a rom I have. I was told Eclipse was the way to go, so I set up an Android Dev machine with all the plugins and recommended tools. Now what?
Since no one is willing or able to help, could someone or a Dev be so kind to get me the correct xml file that will change the top title bar fonts to white instead of black. I will put the file in the rom and re-sign it myself.
I am by no means any good at theming, I fail pretty hard, but this might help. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=535630
Also, maybe try posting in the theme forum. Good luck.
There are different xml files for different stuff. Check out colorchange app. It works with cyanogen to change all stuff. Much easier that the xml stuff we used to have to do. Pm me if you have any specific questions.
If you search for colorchange or even posts by me you will find it. When I turn my pc on later I will post a link if required.
Thanks for the info mates (MontAlbert and bcrook). I will check out the colorchange app. One day I will find some write ups on Elclipse and android rom programming. Will let you know how the app worked out, MontAlbert.

Thank you for this. I will have a read later tonight. And thanks for your help. I did find the file you were refering too but am lost on if it is flashed to the phone or loaded into my dev system.

You probably want to ask these questions in the Android dev group(s) on Google groups. The digests I get every day indicate there is a lot of activity there.

This is based on the Allwinner A10 chipset.
There are some custom roms out there for that platform, but a device specific bundle is needed with it.
I have not been able to find that bundle, it seems without the proper one, the touchscreen probably has no driver (en thus does not work).
Search XDA and you will find the discussion.
A nice tutorial :

Hi,
I saw your post on another site too I think.
I also requested source code, but the support people replied they would not give it.
I kindly pointed them to the GPL and the fact they are legally obliged to release the source code.
After that I have not heard from them.
I also mailed to gpl-violations.org for advice.
would be nice if those companies stop being arrogant and allow proper development.
By the way, Archos seems to do this. Samsung does, Tomtom too and a bunch of others as well.
If the source of this tablet will not be published by them, I will not by any Point Of View product again.
Besides that I would advice all people not to by anything from them anymore.
Let's hope they will comply. Other people, if you read this, please send a mail to ask them.
the more requests, the better!
check this:

perhaps better to close this thread?
hi.

bad forum
When you don't get replies, don't just say xda is a bad forum.
The forum isn't the "thing" answering, it's the users. .
Anyways, I have an answer for your problem. And I know what exactly you're talking about.
The reason your "tool" shows an error when it compiles the .apk is because you made an error somewhere in the process of editing. This happens frequently, the easiest way to figure out the cause for this error is to check the error log. It shows precisely where the issue is.
I would help you out by making it for you, but there is two reasons I cannot. One - its too late here and I can't get on my PC, and Two - If we do it, you don't learn anything if you're building or cooking roms.
So what I would like you to do is, get a log of the error you're getting and perhaps I, or someone else could help you.
Also you can "bump" up your thread, read the stickies for rules on this. It'll help. Bumping the thread pushes the thread near the top of list so people see it. You already did this. But in a slightly different way.

[Q] [HELP] how to have 3-way reboot on Marshmallow stock rom ?

Hello everyone,
I want to know how to get to have the reboot options (Reboot, Recovery, Donwload) on Marshmallow (Nexus 5 or other) stock rom on power menu without being obliged to install a custom rom or any type Xposed modules (which apparently do yet working on this version of android).
Threads exist here and there on the forum but for other versions of android and all talk of a framework and android.policy.jar modifications.
If android.policy.jar easily found on these older versions of Android (the file found in the framework folder), in Marshmallow rom impossible to get hold of it. :crying:
I think that this file has simply disappeared from circulation and was replaced by something else, see that his features were incorporated elsewhere ...impossible to find information on the subject despite long searches !
Is someone would be kind enough to please bring some informations and explain how to do that? that would be awesome !
Thank you in advance for your answers.
I think you might be interested in the world.
Cordialy.

Hello everyone,
One to answer? I'm really surprised and disappointed!
No one can answer that? With the number of developers or modifiers that there is anywhere on the forum? :crying::crying::crying:
Come on guys, we need your lights! :laugh:
Reminder to all those who know!
I use this app : https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=phongit.quickreboot&hl=en
Hello and thank you for this first response.
Unfortunately, it does not answer my question.
I already know this app that I use every day.
I want to know what changes to make on Marshmallow stock to bring up this reboot menu, as you might do in other previous versions.
yes I like digging my head ^^

Basic yes / no guide

Hi all
I really appreciate all the info and knowledge on these forums but I do have a big concern which is I could be going down a dead end having spent many hours getting there.
Can I suggest that there is some very basic notes or a guide that will give almost yes / no answers, an example may be " Can any Android device have its OS updated to a later version?" or
" Can all required binary blobs be extracted from an Android device ?" and this will let someone know if they are looking at doing what cannot be done.
thanks Roy

Simple answer, not all android devices are equal.
Can the bootloader be unlocked, is it a Qualcomm device, is it a Samsung device?
Those and a dozen other specs affect the answers.
Thanks for the feedback,

But a simple flow chart could really help, simple yes/no so if you say yes to the bootloader can be unlocked then onto chipsets, so does it have Qualcom and you say no, then does it have Mediatek and you say yes it could say this is possible but now get reading the forums and learn because it is feasable and not going to take you to a dead end.
Yes/no answers would be too restrictive in some cases. A full answer would help you more.
Otherwise, you'll turn into a 5-yo:
"Yes"
"why?"
"Because 'this' is how it works."
"why?"
