I've looked around xda for about 2-3 days now trying to figure out how I can read these gd .SO files in system/lib. I've came across a few different options but with no luck. I've even partioned my computer and installed Ubuntu thinking having a Linux based OS would allow me access to these files. Needless to say I'm like a fish out of water when it comes to linux. All these repositories, python, Ruby, I must of downloaded 3 gigs of [email protected]#$ and I still can't find a program that can decode these files. Could someone please at least point me in the right direction. I set out wanting to change these files but I will settle w/ simply being able to view them at this point.

Im trying to get lyapotas musicmod for the one x to be fully functional on our phone. Im 75% there but I just wanted to see what's in the lib files he included in his zip file to see how they correspond with the lib files in our phone. Im finding out that changing them is damn near impossible so what ive got working will most likely be it

Hey guys,
I looked everywhere on this site and the internet for the answer, haven't found anything related.
I created a live wall paper from one of my renderings, using a imgae sequence, I am using pngs, not sure if that is an issue, I haven't seen anywhere saying not to.
I have roughly 205 images, and the apk builds with no errors and installs on the emulator, but when going to put it on the screen it is just black.
I am not sure if it is because I used pngs or if I am missing something dumb??
Any ideas??

This could just be because the phone is out of memory. How big is the wallpaper?
Also I'm trying to do the same thing but don't know where to start :-\

The apk is only 15 mb, and I don't think its a memory issue, but I may be wrong.
No body has a clue??
There has to be a simple reason the images are not being rendered............I just can't see it....
Yeah I was stupid. Yeah I should have known better. I get it. I spent two years rooted and rom'ed on my OG Droid and got a false sense of total control.
I got my RAZR, rooted, installed Titanium Backup and removed some annoying apps. I had no idea about Freezing as an option.
Now it appears I'm screwed. Not sure which apps I removed (I wish TB kept a log) and don't have the APK's anyway and now the OTA update is refusing to run.
In the spirit of the holidays would anyone be willing to give me a hand getting past this dilemma and back into the sunlight where I can move forward with a new, better understanding of the landscape?
Thanks.
What build are you on? Is it branded? What part of the world are you in?
A little info goes a long way dude. I have a UK spec razr, 651.73.17.XT910.retail.en.EU on android 2.3.5
Sorry man. I'm in the US with a Verizon Droid RAZR.
It's running 6.11.744.XT912.Verizon.en.US
Im in the same boat as you. Definitely NOT inexperienced with android, but seem to be missing a few files (i did buy this from a buddy, so I blame him lol)
do me a favor, shoot me the NAME of the file that it first tries to find and fails ALSO include the first four characters of the checksums (two of them) that it spits out. I will compare that to the one i have and see if i can help you out.
for example:
sha1sum /system/app/GuidedTours.apk >>> first 4 characters should be "55f5" or "83ce"
sha1sum /system/app/BlurMusic.apk >>> first 4 characters should be "2f56" or "89b2"
sha1sum /system/app/BlurMusic.odex >>> first 4 characters should be "cfa6" or "79fc"
Those are a few examples to determine if you may have the same files as I do. I can't believe that all of the others I've tried seem to be different checksums (did Verizon REALLY have that many different builds?!)
Still looking for the damned log file to find out what it's missing. I know, for example, I have no Guided Tours apk as that seemed useless at the time.
the log file is only going to show you the first one that fails (which sounds like guided tours). Your log file is located in the /cache/recovery/last_log file. I've done this for 3 apps so far and MAN is this a headache. I hope this is the last file I need (GuidedTours.apk and GuidedTours.odex)
I also saw your post on Droidforums.net JUST now and you need to make sure you ask for the odex file as well as the apk file. or you'll just get an error for the odex file missing ;-)
I can't help as my battery just died and I refuse to charge it with anything other than the supplied motorola charger now.
Off topic I know... but usually I don't care about chargers. I charge everything I own that's usb powered with my old 1000mA HTC charger. Usually works, but it seems that the motorola charger is 5.1V / 5.2V instead of the 5.0V that most usb ports output. I've noticed a good 5/6 hours' difference from "full" to empty by using chargers other than the motorola one! Takes 2/3 cycles using only the motorola one before I get full life again.
There's a random tip from my experience lol
I am having same issues, ota says update fail

I'm having the same issue.
I was able to locate my log file and take a look. So far it's failing at the geniewidget.apk. I deleted the dumb news widget so what the update shouldn't fail.
So now to try again.
I wish I had remembered to look at the log file before I erased everything the first time around.
Ouch. that sux. The #1 reason why I have been waiting. Once ICS comes out, I might start putting custom roms on.
mz...what are the first four characters for the two checksums that is shows in your log?

uninstalling is fine IF you do it through the Applications section of the OS. But if you start leveraging TiBu or others like that all bets are off. I would suggest you just "freeze" the app with TiBu or an equivalent application.

Hello everyone! Ive been trying to get the original nexus 7 boot animation (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=29225381&postcount=1) to work on the vibrant, no matter what I do it still doesnt work.. Ive tried changing the resolution and fps around to see if maybe that is the issue but to no avail. Im thinking it may have something to do with the amount of pictures in the animation, its around 80+, but i dont know what i can do to fix it, if that is the problem. if anyone knows what i need to do to make it work please let me know.
ps: watch the youtube video in the post on the link above to see which animation I'm talking about, its not the aosp one that ended up shipping with the n7.
thanks for any help you can give!

Im not sure if you mean what i did to try to get it to work or what i did to install it so ill just tell both.
I opened the desc.txt and changed the res to 480 800 and upped the fps to 24 (I even tried it with the default desc.txt numbers and still no luck) then i saved the zip and used root explorer to put it in the system/media folder, and renamed it bootanimation.zip.
When i reboot the phone to see if it works it plays the animation i had before i installed this one, which i dont even understand how it does that since im positive i delete the old bootanimation.zip each time i tried to get it to work.
What ROM are you using? Some ICS ROMs do contain the BA in /system/media.
Wherever it is buried in the ROM, if you drop the N7 BA in /data/local it will supersede the "host" one. Meaning that you can put any BAs in /data/local whenever you want and leave your ROM based BA unadulterated. Why don't you try that and also don't forget to set permissions once you drop it in /data/local.

You're a genius kind sir, thanks for the help. One thing i've noticed is it seems to stutter more then my previous animation, do you know of a way to fix that by chance? Although the animation I had before was smaller and probably way less demanding then this one is, so that could be why its acting up. Im on the most recent Hellybean release

It is probably the reason you think it is. Sometimes when I have a larger BA, it will stutter or freeze/jump to the next frame. But that is the beauty of dropping it in /data/local, is I can swap it out with no worries of messing anything up. Sometimes I drop one in my wifes phone just to mess with her. She's pretty savvy so it doesn't take her long to figure it out and call me up.
Hit that thanks button. IKoolkid's too.

You probably did. Bet you'll remember next time it comes around. You can drop all kinds of things in /data/local like Default.props, init scripts, bootanitmations,...and they will all run first before the stock kicks in. But you have to be VERY careful with anything other than BAs.

What can you do with data/local other than BA'S and I'm not tech savvy enough to run scripts and all that stuff.

Wait a minute. Did you just delete your question? Did you get it figured out?
From what I remember of it, just off the top of my head, did you set the permissions. If you forget to do those, it will default to the stock BA. I've also been so frustrated to the point that I was putting the stock one in /data/local when I thought I was putting a new one in there. I had to unzip it to make sure I was doing what I wanted (turned out I wasn't :facepalm
Search Default.prop on google and see what turns up. You can enable/disable Voodoo if you want. Run a ro.secure=0 or =1 which allows you to boot into ADB with or without Root. You can put any persistent props in there to. I think that you can also put in some build.prop tweaks in there to run on boot instead of the "default" build.prop that is stock, but not sure about that one.
^^^^Obviously, if you start messing with these and are not sure what you are doing, make sure you have a Nandroid to restore.
Got it figured out, same problem you had with the copying old one.

As many if you know, the HTC hardware keys are not the most reliable. So my question is if the software keys found on devices like the nexus can be enabled on the HTC one by adjusting some data on the phone itself. I don't want to have to flash anything.
This may not be the first thread asking this. If there is a preexisting thread please just point me to it. I have see one though, so I will be surprised if there is.

Well, I know that you can mess around with the build.prop on an AOSP-based ROM like CM10.1 to get software keys. All you need is root and a build.prop editor. Adding the following line:
qemu.hw.mainkeys=0
Enables the softkeys. You'd have to devote a new line to it, unless you find the line sitting around in the first place.
Granted, doing so on previous versions of HTC Sense has never worked, but it might be worth a try with Sense 5. Still, you might want to follow standard procedure and make a backup of your build.prop before messing around with it. You can also make a backup of your ROM. There's nothing to flash in this instance unless something goes horribly, horribly wrong.
Now on the other hand, you could also take a look in the framework-res.apk. IIRC, the framework is different on HTC devices, but it might have changed. This method requires you to extract and decompile the apk and modify it, then push it back onto your phone. Since you don't want to flash anything, I suggest you ignore everything about the framework-res.apk and try the build.prop edit.
hello good people, I was having a look through my gs3 i9300 with es file explorer, after a while I found a few weird files, not so sure if they would do anything or not, but anyway the files were named "battery_wireless_charging-**.qmg" the stars represent a different number as there was multiple files like that, when I saw these files I was astonished and thought could this actually happen?? I need some help on this I will leave some pictures below and if you're wondering the file path was "/system/media/ " it could be different for other phones though any help would be much appreciated thanks
