hello, i wonder if someone would help me out a little bit, a few days ago i started to try modifying the default MusicPlayer.apk on my Galaxy 3.. i extracted the stuff from the .apk with winrar, edited the .png files inside the "res" folder and then repacked all the files to a .rar archive,after that renamed it to .apk and resigned it (i tried even without resigning) but the app wont start..due to this is a system app i know i cant install it from the file manager,but usually it has to begin the installation etc.. i only get something like a parsing package error..any help would be appreciated,and thanks in advance..
[sorry if my english is wrong]
Of course it won't start
In the apk there are also more folders than the res-folder, you only see them if you decompile the apk.
But you only have to decompile them if you want to edit ...9.png (eg with that) files, otherwise just extract them to edit and afterwards add them again with WinRAR or something like that
in fact i did extract all files and folders so i repacked all of them again im sure i didnt miss any files,the problem is that i dont know what else the problem could be
danke trozdem für die hilfe help is always welcome
Edit: I found out how to do it open the .apk as an archive (with winrar or something similar) extract the files you want to edit,edit them and put them into the original .apk you wanted to edit (youi open the .apk file with winrar,and drag the edited files and just drop them to the opened archive,and let them get replaced) and done!!
I edited the original MusicPlayer.apk of my Galaxy 3 so that it looks like the Xperia's one (just edited some .png files)
btw here are some screens of my work (till now), but i have so much more things to edit
Can somebody tell me if i want to use applications in system/app folder of one phone in another , how can i do this?
For example i tried to copy the memo.apk (application) from samsung galaxy s2 to xperia play's system/app folder using root explorer. After rebooting i still could not find the memo applicaiton in my mobile. I also simply tried installing the memo .apk extracted from galaxy s2 in my xperia play but it could install.
Thanks.
That may be because of changed framework...
The system app has more than apk file like odex...
well i know this can be see as a duplicate post , but believe i search and read many Thread and search around google and no success or real useful tutorial find for this
i want to remove default gallery from my phones ( Huawei G600 & Sony V ) and replace it with Quickpic
both is rooted .
i use a Root file manager and Go to system/app and delete gallery2.apk ( Huawei G600) or semcAlbum.apk in sony V
now i copy Quickpic.apk to the system/app
and copy libqpicjni144.so to system/lib
after i restart the phone , when i enter some app like whatsup or viber and what to add a image the default gallery load again !! seems it`s still somewhere and only removed from app list in menu
so whats the problem ??
how can i edit Default app for opening image and video in android ?
selecting Quickpic as default on app asking or using titanium backup to freeze the gallery will not help for prevent run gallery in some app and make .thumbdata3 file
*******************************************************************************************************************
why i need to remove default gallery :
after i test and remove .thumbdata3 ( with huge size and make my phone memory full ) for a few times , i see when i enter the gallery again this file re created with the same size and never can get ride of it
even i try to create a file with the same name and replace it with read-only permission but after the day I see another ..thumbdata3 created with some difference in numbers
so i really need to remove default gallery and more important of that make Quickpic the default gallery for all third party apps like camera, whatsup, line , ...
