[Q] DeviceID hack (via WT's ROM) - Samsung Galaxy Player 4.0, 5.0

hey,
i'm trying to implement a deviceID hack on my device atm, using the files from the deviceid folder on WT's ROM. I've tried to locate Meticulus' original post with the hack, but no dice.
So 2 things:
1) I'm assuming that I can use the framework.jar on my device (on Chip's ROM, atm). is this correct? if not, where can I find the patch file or what should I edit in the .smali files to patch my framework.jar folder?
2) I've noted a few drivers in the folder- device-id-hk-pccw.sh, device-id-uk.vodafone.sh, and device-id-us-verison.sh. Where, in which folder should I place these drivers and do I need them all? I've tried to locate the destination of the drivers via the aroma installer file and the update script, but could locate it.
Thanks for the help!

How to extract files from ROM

Hi,
As the new ICS 4.0.3 seems to have gotten rid of the libraries required for call recording, I am willing to extract the relevant libraries from a 2.3.6 ROM, replace and give it a shot. I already have a few of them with me, for example Official DXKL3.
I need to extract the following 3 files -
system/lib/libaudiopolicy.so
system/lib/libaudioflinger.so
system/lib/libaudio.so
How can I extract these files from a ROM?
On you pc or on you phone click extract here. And will be exctracted about 6 files. Navigate to system app and find wht app you want. Copy and replace. I guess I understood right what you mean.
Get a utility program like 7Zip, IZarc, WinRar on your PC & open up the zip/tarfile & you can see the individual files & extract same.
However...
What you're attempting to do will not work. Different framework.
Points for thinking outside the box tho.
Thanks... Though when I use 7z, it only extracts zImage,factoryfs, etc., only a handful of files. I cannot see the individual files in the file system. Also 7z cannot extract these files anymore...
Ahh I think I was talking about already "cooked" ROM, and you guys are talking about the source? Sorry I am very new to the terminologies used. If that is the case I will check if I can find these files in the source tarball.
Try another program if 7Zip doesn't work. Try IZarc. I can see every file in the roms I have with it.

[Q] Modifying QuickSnote.apk for Jelly 'Beans' build 4

Hi,
I'm trying to figure out why a modified QuickSnote.apk doesn't work on Jelly 'Beans' Rom - Build 4->http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2032447
This is a problem (for me) because it used to work on build 3 just two days ago.
Here is what I did,
0. Install framework-res.apk, SystemUI.apk, and twframework-res.apk that I extracted from root (build 4)
1. Download and decompile the '/system/app/QuickSnote.apk' using 'apktool'
2. Overwrite QuickSnote/res/raw/popupnote_sound.ogg with a dummy ogg file.
3. Recompile the 'QuickSnote.apk' using 'apktool'
4. Copy&paste jar-res directory from the original apk into newly created apk (it's missing from the new apk for some reason)
5. Sign the apk using 'signapk'
6. Finally, overwrite /system/app/QuickSnote.apk with the new&signed apk
After doing this, I assumed that the only difference in the MANIFEST.MF files would be the SHA1Digest of the 'popupnote_sound.ogg' file. However, many other digests seem to be different.
Could this be the reason why it's not working?
Please assist me with this.
Thanks.
Have you tried to copy :
assets
META-INF
android-manifest.xml
from the original to the new one?
I had same problem with framework-res.apk and it solved it

[Q] Internal/Hidden files

I'm trying to extract internal and hiddent files for my Bionic 4.1.2.
The instructions I found online said to basically
1.) extract the framework.jar (adb pull /system/framework/framework.jar - not a problem)
2.) rename it to framework.zip and unzip - not a problem
3.) retrieve classes.dex - problem there is no classes.dex
I can't move any further because classes.dex is not in my framework.jar on the emulator or physical device.
Is the file Classes.dex located somewhere else for this version of Andorid?
Is there another or better method to get internal and hidden files to utilize in applications?
I need this so I can build some special needs applications for my father who has ALS.
Any help provided would be appreciated. Thanks.

[Q] editing .so file

Howdy.
I'm trying to modify a .so file (libflashplayer.so), but have run into a few problems:
I first tried editing the file after it was installed from an .apk. This appears to work at first, but the edited file is quickly replaced with the original.
I then tried editing the file in the .apk package. This causes the package to fail to install (I'm guessing because the md5 in the certificates no longer matches)
Aldo tried moving a folder with the .so files from the .apk (com.adobe.flashplayer-1 which is what is created when the .apk installs correctly) directly into /data/app-lib/.The directory was created successfully but appears to be immediately deleted.
Is there a way to accomplish what I'm trying to do? If so how?
Other possibly relevant info:
My device is rooted
I did not write the code for anything in the .apk, I got it from a link on xda (pretty dubious i know but I couldn't find another option)
I'm using cyanogenmod 10.2 (based on android 4.2 I believe).
I'm editing the file with a hex editor to change a a few characters ("AND" to "WIN")
