As we all know, you can morph third-party apps in /data/app
would i be able to move a market app to /system/app and then morph it? has anyone attempted this?
Why would you need to move an app to /system/app? To stop it from upgrading? You can only accomplish it by a shell script or something.

i wish....stericson had said a couple months ago that he was working on it to function for /data/app, but there's been no follow-up on that yet
I've made morphs for market apps on several occasions...the most recent was changing the background on my meridian music widget.
To answer your questions, it works without causing any problems to the functionality of the app itself, nor have I had any issues from applying the morph with the apk still located in data/app. But, you will get errors when trying to apply an update through the market. This also screws things up when you have lots of updates and try to "update all." The updates will work fine until the market tries to update the one you modified, then all apps it tries to update after that will also come back with errors.
Since I don't check for updates often, I need that "update all" button to work properly - so I solved the problem by using Titanium Backup to detach the modified apps from the market. The downside is you won't see if an update is available, but an update would require you to uninstall, reinstall, then reapply the morph. Most updates aren't critical enough to go through that hassle...imo.
Hope that helps!

did you use metamorph, or ninjamorph for this? im assuming you use ninjamorph to unzip, make your changes, rezipped, signed, and installed? im trying to bypass the signing/reinstalling because ever since i upgraded to froyo "signapktic" no longer works for me, so i cant sign apps on my phone.
thats the beauty of metamorph is that you can change images without needing to take all those extra steps.
i was certain you caouldnt metamorph an app in /data/app....

Nope, used Metamorph. Never messed with Ninjamorph.
I actually do most of the work on my phone, so no need to unzip/rezip/unzip. Once it's unzipped on my phone I write/modify the xml file and move around the images to the folders they need to be in - all using Root Explorer.
For example, yesterday I tried applying MotorJohnny's Swype morph, but it didn't work because my Swype Beta had been installed in data/app and was "com.swype.android...something.apk" instead of "Swype.apk" in the system/app. So, all that was necessary was to modify the xml file to the correct filepath, folders, and apk name. Voila, worked like a charm. (well, the morph did...the buttons were a little screwed up having applied to to Swype beta haha): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=13670377&postcount=42

Yeah Top, I know you can use note pad, but im very curious how you edit xml.s without a pc. I have ported whole themes using ninjamorph and zip themer but any xml I had to edit had to be done on my comp. Even if I used ninjamorph to extract the .xml, I could never edit it on phone alone. The Xml would just look like garbled code...i will check out silveredit tho.....If you get a chance check out Xml engine..just search in market It looks promising but is still in alpha....thanks

Or get ahold of a metamorph zip. Prefferable a whole theme zip. You want the control file.....now rename the zip to .apk using root explorer, then use ninjamorph to decompile your new .apk file and delete everything in it except the .xml control file. Now take your new .png files and add them to the decompiled .apk in the correct folder or you may move whole folders if you like. After you have all your files in place use ninjamorph to recompile but dont choose to replace exsisting. Just hit no. this will leave your .apk in the workspace folder of ninjamorph. Go into root explorer and rename it back to .zip and move it to root of sd. Now go into zip themer and choose that zip file. Now change the output to /sd/whatever.zip, now hit build. Zip themer will build you a CWM flashable zip with all the mods for whatever apk.s you included using the exsisting files on your phone....not the easiest way and I wouldnt reccommend it just to theme 1 app. But if you want to theme multiple apk.s, even the ones ninjamorph cant theme like Swype and apps in data folder It works flawlessly....sounds like alot but literally takes 5min using root exp to move whole groups of .pngs instead of 1 at a time with ninjamorph and this can all be done without a computer.

Having read about a great mod to eliminate the annoying sd-card mounting sound upon reboots, i really wanted a way to edit build.prop from my phone without relying on my PC.
I know that Root Explorer would do the trick, but I was not willing to spend $4 to do such a minor edit.
That said, with a little Googling I found a great free editor that allows you to make a backup before you start and fiddle at your discretion. http://code.google.com/p/net-widgetron-propeditor/downloads/detail?name=PropEditor-0.3.apk
Thought this might help someone!

I gotta say though that Root Explorer is well worth the money if you like to tweak your phone. I use it constantly to edit/backup/move/etc system files and ANY file really.
I can tell you that it has also saved my butt more than once when I did something I shouldn't by giving me the ability to change something back before rebooting my phone into a boot loop.

Trust me............Root Explorer will save you a lot of time for that $4 in the long run. It's a must have app, no doubt about it!
I found that Ghost Commander offered the same kind of file management capabilities as Root Explorer with the omission of some small features. (Like a build.prop editor!) It's also a free download from the market.
My needs are not the most complex either... I'll wait for someone else to test the waters before I dive in so that the brick potential is minimized.

why is it that i cannot edit my build.prop file in Root explorer. i have paid for it and have it and i have root and super user access.
when i go to edit the build.prop it said that i cant... it said "Warning, you cannot edit this file because the file system is read-only. WTF this is aggravating me so much. all i want to do is Edit my build.prop file and i cant seem to find a way to do it. i searched all over these forums and cant find it.
my phone is STOCK but i have it rooted. i don't want to add anything else really. all i want to do is edit the file for purchasing gameloft games.

you guys all completely derailed the point of this thread.
Prop Editor is an awesome app for editing your prop files. It is EASIER to use than Root Explorer's text editor, because 1) it sorts all the lines in build.prop alphabetically and removes comments and 2) it allows you to select single lines and edit the values or replace them with some pre-existing suggestions (such as when editing the phone model line).
I find it much better to use than Root Explorer for when I want to edit my build.prop, and I paid for RE too.
My Thoughts Exactly!!
And Prop Editor has Backup Option!!

we have different mount points than the 4G, you could extract the font zip you want, and then paste the fonts into /system/fonts.
Will do now. thanks

I'm using a couple ICS+sense roms that are giving me some issues with the Market. A bunch of apps aren't showing up including some that I paid for. It prob has something to do w/ me going from GB to ICS 4.0.1 aka CleanRom 2.1. Anyways, before I flashed these roms I was able to see all these apps in the Market that I can't now. Can someone explain how I can trick the Market into showing every app whether they're compatible with GB/ICS or not? If I have to pull my Market.apk and edit it, let me know how to do that or if there is a Market.apk out there that I can install over the current one I already have. If there's a way for me to keep that most updated market(3.4.4) that'd be great.

I know, it sucks. Essentially I think you have to edit your build.prop. It'll be a pain to get it to work. If you can find someone that knows how to correctly edit the build.prop, I think you can get those apps. The best thing to do would be to contact the app developers and ask when they'll make their apps compatible with ICS.
I've never used it but it sounds like maybe the "Market Enabler" app might work. It's at keast worth checking out

1. Flash a 2.3 rom
2. Use root file explorer >>go to data/app folder and copy app to SD card
3.reinstall 4.0 rom and reinstall app
Editing build prop is more trouble and time than its worth.
Copy and reinstall is faster and the apps will still function...paid apps will require the install key probably...

Why do I need to flash a Rom, can't I just download a Rom, open the zip with 7zip and extract the market.apk from system/app? I thought the market apk was in system/app?
Oh and could you name a Rom I could download to get the apk I need. Also, what is the name of the market.apk? How do I remove the market from the ICS Rom and install the GB market over it so I don't have two markets installed and in my launcher?
One last thing, what do you mean paid apps will require a licencse?
Sent from my HTC Rezound using XDA Premium
Nope, not market.apk. You'll want to look in /data/app for the specific apps that are missing. /data/app is the location of all your apks downloaded from the market.
The reason we don't need to simply copy the market.apk is because your market app is working just fine. Google's servers filter based on device and rom according to the build.prop file. Because there's no official ICS rezound it doesn't know what to show you yet. Once it gets closer to release google will add the profile for ICS and everything will show properly.

If you go the flashing back to GB method I recommend grabbing AppMonster to back up all your apps. I've been using the pro version and it's pretty cool. Now I have access to all the apps I've downloaded in the past but don't have to install them until I need/want to. It also automatically backs up apps as soon as you've downloaded them. Super easy to restore too.

DO NOT DO THIS! The reason that some of the apps are not showing up in the market is because they have not been updated to say that they work with 4.0.1. If you swap build.props you could seriously harm your device, I STRONGLY advise against it.
I just went to the market website on my computer and looked under my apps, then just installed all the ones I wanted to from there. It was a little hassle, but really only took around 10 min for about 30-40 apps I wanted.

in your opinion does it do any better/different than TB?
I've been looking into editing the build.prop file. I am hesitant to do so because all the other examples I've seen are from similar devices so very few lines are actually changing. I noticed the rezound has a crapload of lines, i'm not sure how many would be required to actually get an app showing.
Does anyone know what specific lines the Market app looks at to verify?
My problem is not that I'm trying to get an app on ICS but that I want Plants and Zombies. I understand it works on other GB's but not the rezound. Any more insight on the build.prop file would be awesome!

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=21238982&postcount=18
Well, updated to CleanRom ICS edition v2.3 and tried my build.prop and my Rez wouldn't even boot... Booo!!!! So back to the drawing bored I went. Happy to say I now have a build.prop that is up and running. Issue here is not that I can't download games from the market. That's easy. Issue is, once downloaded, they won't download additional data. **shakes fist at gameloft**
So here it is, as always: I'm not responsible for any damages done to your phone by use of this file, etc..... Remember to nandroid backup!!!!
THIS HAS ONLY BEEN TESTED TO WORK ON CLEANROM ICS 2.3
How to Use:
Open file browser of choice and go to /system/
Rename build.prop to something like build.prop.bak
Download the file and unrar it
Move the file to /system/
Rename to build.prop
Reboot
When you need to switch back, just rename the modded build.prop to something like build.prop.mod and rename build.prop.bak to build.prop and reboot.
What it does - Makes your phone appear as the Desire HD.
So I personally hate the look of the T-Mobile boot/shutdown animations, so I extracted to stock animations from the international version of the phone. Just thought that I would share it here for anyone else who wanted to get rid to the T-Mobile boot/shutdown animation.
Adding Boot Animations
1. First, download a file explorer on your phone. I personally use Root Explorer, it costs a little but it worth every penny. A free one you can use is ES Explorer.
2. Navigate to system > media on your device. If you see files titled bootsamsung.qmg, bootsamsamsungloop.qmg, bootsamsungmini.qmg, and bootsansungminiloop.qmg then you are in the right area. If not, try again to find the right area.
3. Take only the bootsamsung.qmg, bootsamsamsungloop.qmg, bootsamsungmini.qmg, and bootsansungminiloop.qmg files from the zip attached to this post and paste them over the existing one.
If prompted by your file explorer, the permission of the files should be rw-rw-rw-
(Please note, if you want to save the stock files to restore them for any reason, replace the qmg on the stock files with XML)
Animation steps are completed!
Adding Boot Sound
For sound we are going to do pretty much the same thing
1. Navigate to System > Media > Audio > UI, if you see a bunch of files ending in .ogg, you're in the right area!
2. Replace the stock PowerOn.ogg with the one in the zip attached to this post.
(Please note, if you want to save the stock files to restore them for any reason, replace the ogg on the stock files with XML)
3. (optional) If you don't like the shut down sound on your device, delete the file title PowerOff.ogg
Reboot and enjoy!
Hopefully that helps out anyone who was having issues. Let me know if you have any other questions or concern!
im with you, ty sir.

Awesome, I am guessing that you would need a file explorer to do anything. Most people on here have recommended ES File explorer. Its free and does a lot of things, but does take some getting used to if your not real familiar with the file structure.
Hope this gets you started in make your phone truly YOURS. Gotta love Android.

Make sure that you aren't pasting the PowerOn.ogg where the boot .qmg's go, and make sure you aren't pasting the qmg's in where the PowerOn.ogg goes. I know that's a pretty confusing explanation but that seems to be what would cause the issue for you guys. I'll update the OP with more exact instructions.
As for a flash-able zip, I will try to get the done sometime this week. I have an interview today at work I'm preping for so I probably wont get it done today.

Yeah, maybe its something with that ROM. I haven't used it before so I'm not sure. I'm sorry.
Anyone want to post the stock tmobile boot animation And sounds?

So, the startup animation/sound is working great (thank you!), but it's still T-Mobile sound for the shutdown. Do you happen to have the PowerOff.ogg from international version?
Also, I created a flashable .zip file for the stuff you provided, and a return-to-stock .zip also. If you can provide the file above, I can include it before sending them to you for posting here.
EDIT: I went ahead and posted it without any shutdown sound. The T-Mobile one will restore the original animations and the boot/shutdown sounds also.

Same thing here... I can't get my screen to lock now and it turns off my auto brightness and just sticks on the s5 splash screen tried putting the stock files back but still didn't fix it

Same exact problem, and I'm no noob to this either. Not sure what is breaking it.
I think one of those boot animations (at least one of the four) are corrupt. OP, you may want to have a look at those files and maybe replace them, they might have uploading improperly.
For those who got stuck with a stuck screen, I believe it is the boot animation that is the problem (not the sounds). Replacing the originals does work, just don't use the flash. Here are the original 4 qmg files for the media folder (delete the others out).

I'm confused - are the .zip files that I provided broken? I just now re-downloaded both straight to my phone from here, and they appear to be working...
