Trying to edit the APN.xml but none of the editors can load it. Tried Notepad, Notepad++ and 3 other editors. I want to learn the basics of a ROM and I wanna input my tethering fix as well as deleting the other APNs. Any help would be appreciated!
By the way, I'm running on Windows 7.
strange. all of those progs should open it up. try wordpad.

looks like an encoding "problem". try playing with various encoding options, and you should be good to go
Where is that xml located? You might need to decompile if its located in one of the framework files. (Framework-res.apk)
Then it should read correctly. pm me if you continue to have problems cause I'm pretty good with this stuff lol

If it's in the framework-res.apk, you do need to decompile it. Relevant thread can be found here.

It isn't an encoding problem. when I opened it with IE, it displayed a blank page

It is in the Framework-res.apk. res\xml\apns.xml to be exact lol
I decompiled the Framework-res.apk with AutoAPKTool and WinRar. Still no solution.

decompile it with apk manager instead... (it overall works better)
over the years i made a perfect apk manager package that worked pretty well. can you upload your framework-res.apk that your trying and i will see if i can get it to work?
EDIT: BTW, here's the pack i made. http://www.mediafire.com/?y89c72at083lf7c <--- it works great for gb and froyo. idk about ics though

Trust me, its not that it doesnt like you lol ics is just a pain, you have to use 2 different versions of apktool to decompile and recompile....
and im making the package now, it has convenient readme.txt's that tell you exactly how i did it.

I seriously love you (No homo of course)! I can make a simple ass GUI with it. You want it to compile and decompile with a button, right? That'll take like a max of half an hour. Maybe 45 mins depending if I wanna make the GUI look clean rather than sloppy lol

and that sounds good. a gui would be cool with the decompile and recompile buttons! so did you get what you were trying to do with the apn.xml to work?

I can work on it after I do the S-Off toolkit.
I can actually look at the file, but I didn't edit it yet. I'm reading for school tomorrow. I have about 80 pages out of 160 to read! lol
Btw, do you know how to deodex the ICS base?

take your time man it'll still get here lol
and yes, the easiest way is to use a kitchen. i recommend this one. and if one of the files doesnt deodex right we can always borrow that specific file from another rom. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=633246
it has an option to deodex either just /system/app, /system/framework, or both
(although i've never tried it on the amaze yet.)

When I'm editing my build.prop to add things like the Sony Bravia mod and what not does it matter where I add the lines? Can it be anywhere in the build.prop?? Does the phone just read the file from top to bottom?
Also, where do babies come from?

What is the best editor to use on Windows? Notepad runs all of the lines together even with Word Wrap activated.

Thirded. Those men are right, Notepad++ is an awesome editor and utility to use. Bluefish isn't bad if you want to have an alternative to try but I don't see how you can go wrong with Notepad++.
Notepad++ for most basic stuff and linux for smali.
Notepad + + for everything here.
Compare and replace features are needful.

For on device edits, I included Bluefish in UbunTop 1.3. I had intended to include very early on but kept forgetting to do so.
This is by far the easiest method of modding your build prop

Yes, I find it very useful when editing the build prop directly from my phone.
Can someone upload the multi window apk. Want to have a go at porting it to the i9300.
Cheers

As far as I know, it's not just an apk. It goes much deeper than that. Maybe I'm wrong though.

Youre right.
- f3w1n -
Honestly you should just wait, or get hold of the s3 leak that already includes it.
It is wired so deep in the frameworks you will never get it fully working, or maybe not even at all if you tried to port from the note.
There is one dedicated apk, then there is code in xml's of several other apks and various libs and other files.
The multi window function is part of the systemui apk. Read thru this thread.
You'll have to edit it yourself if you want to port it to other devices.
