Before you say it, YES, I've looked at the many other threads in this forum, stockoverflow, and other sites, all explaining the process of how you have to decompile the application APK file and change the package name in the manifest, then sign and install onto your phone. I was able to successfully do it on another application (application wouldn't run but it installed at least XD), but, I can't seem to get it to work on the Skype application. When I try to install the APK of my modified versions, the install just fails, with no error message to go off. I've tried on the latest version as of today, and I simply can't get it to work at all.
Is there anyone who has tried doing this already with Skype and had success? (If so, share your apk!)
Is there a reason why Skype specifically doesn't work? Or am I missing something?
I'd really appreciate feedback on this, I've ripped my hair out all day trying to do this and it just won't work. If anyone has anything which might help I'd greatly appreciate it. I simply wish to run 2 (or more would better) instances of the Skype application at once.
Hi, did you eventually manage to get 2 logins running concurrently? If you did, kindly share the solution. Thanks!

Hey guys,
Got an issue with my toggle switches on my today screen (wifi on/off, disconnect data, and flight mode). They were working just fine up until today, so I know that the issue occurred when I was messing with it today.
The error that I get when trying to use the switches says "The file 'JMLComm' cannot be opened. Either it is not signed with a trusted certificate, or one of its components cannot be found. If the problem persists, try reinstalling or restoring this file."
Today, i did three things, one that I'm almost positive had nothing to do with it was added morph gear and a Rom for SNES. The other two were adding Bandswitch (didn't work the way I wanted it to, so I removed it) and added Setup Dial Up Enable Disabler, which didn't cut off the data connection after the time I selected. so I deleted that also.
Any tips or suggestions? thank you
well, since no one can respond to that, how about this.where can I look up to see if that file is still on the phone our just got deleted.
JMLComm should be in the windows directory, a ROM file, so you will need to show all files, size on mine is 45k, attributes RM
There is also JMLTasks.exe, 74k, RM
Neither of them do anything when i try to run them. I believe they probably need command line parameters.
a quick google shows that jmlcomm is associated with enabling/disabling BT and WIFI (which makes sense)
yea, I saw that when I did a search, so im wondering what changed so I cant use my toggles.maybe if I were to reload the file on the phone it would fix it? or maybe theres something blocking it so I cant use it.im wondering how adding those two programs could have done that...

its a rom file, so it is not removeable. you acn copy over it, using some file managers (resco, total commander) or use a cab to instal a copy over it, but the file would still be there 'underneath' the one you add.
Id be more suspicious that its a bad install of cookies home tab (they are the toggles you mean, right?)
I'd probably go for a hard reset and reinstal, but thats me.
But would it take 2 weeks for something to happen? because CHT was the first thing i installed, and everything worked fine
oh no, it will be something that happened recently, but its often easier to start over than to backtrack. Plus rolling back the offending item wont necessarilly fix it.
dang.alright.thanks, and off topic, I know, but when I do a hard reset, what all on the phone was preloaded that will get deleted?
Sounds like one of the things you install used the same file as your problem program. So when it was in stall it over wrote it and when uninstalled it deleted it causing an issue. When you hard reset it will take the phone back to your last flash, what ever was installed on the rom by the cook will be there but anything you loaded after the flash will need to be restored
did you ever find a fix to this? my phone just started doing this!
*edit* If you're using CHT & this happened just reinstall.

I guess the development certificates / signing went out of date.
search after sdkcertsnew2015.cab to renew them.

Hi all,
Well for everyone who want's to have the Google apps like:
Android market
Youtube
Gmail
etc.
Here is a link to a share where the gapps4archos can be downloaded.
http://code.google.com/p/archos-apps-installer/downloads/list
INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS:
WARNING: You cannot install this appInstaller if you installed gApps4Archos or any other gApps installer. Anytime you switch appInstaller programs, you MUST reset your device back to stock. If you've NEVER installed ANY market/gApps installer, then your good... no need to reset.
NOTE: If you've ONLY used my appInstaller, then you can REMOVE the old files using my app and re-install the apps at the same time, then REBOOT.
1) Download - http://code.google.com/p/archos-apps-installer/downloads/list
2) Copy download to your device via USB (if you didnt download directly using your Archos)
3) Use 'Files' app to locate gAppsInstaller, then execute/install it
4) Choose install packaged apps or choose to install your own packaged 'apps.zip' file located on the internal drive (not sdcard)
4a) There maybe a short delay after you tap an install button (its installing and you'll be notified when its done, about 5-10 seconds)
5) REBOOT!!
6) Follow the Market FIX instructions below
MARKET FIX:
This will get you most missing apps from the market, except some "protect market apps"
Setting-->Manage Applications-->All-->Market (Clear Cache then 'Force Stop' -- DO NOT clear data)
Setting-->Manage Applications-->All-->Google Services Framework (Clear data then 'Force Stop')
REBOOT again
Market Fix video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7l-nySibzeA&feature=player_embedded#!
If you do this correctly you will find most missing apps like 'Copilot Live USA' in the Market. However, some apps will not show because they are "protected" Market apps. These include 'NY Times'. Google search "android protected market apps" if your not familar.
NOTE: The latest version of GMAIL and Youtube can be downloaded in the market...
Thanks to our friends from the archosfans.com forum
Thankyou for this, I have seen how much work you have put into it. Tried gAppsInstaller_v3.apk this morning and seems to be working well, no FC's etc so far...
(edit)Oppss ment to say thankyou Kenyu73 for the app and thanks Dreetje for posting, thought you was Kenyu under a different name...

Well i didn't made it, Kenyu73 did make it It makes my device complete, really love the Archos device!
Thanks! I've looked at these instructions a dozen times on ArchosFans and always missed that market was clear cache not clear data and never figured out why it didn't work right for me. With the latest gapps I'm now seeing most everything. Awesome guide!
Edit: For some reason when I use this installer however, TweetDeck will not run properly. It always Force Closes once I've signed into my account and I cannot fix it. This is one of my favorite apps. If someone could figure this out I would appreciate it.
Edit 2: This installer causes a ton of apps not to launch in my experience thus far. TweetDeck as mentioned, Moblox, Angry Birds, they all just FC or hang endlessly. I'd still recommended the other installer with the same steps outlined in this post.
Stupid question but does "reset your device back to stock" mean anything else than a reboot? Like an Android reset or something?

thanks for the advise on market acces update, now finally updated gmail apk
I have the Google Marketplace up and running and for the most part it works wonderfully. My biggest issue are protected applications I use on my HTC EVO aren't showing up and some of these application I really use / enjoy. Some of these are:
1) BatteryView
2) Battery Watch
3) Splash ID!
4) Monster App Pro (I'm using the non-Pro right now)
I've been trying to add the "Market Access" application to the mix to help me with this issue, but thus far can't get z4root to work. Oh, it says it was successful, but none of the programs that need root can get it from the Super User application.
I can live without these protected applications, they are simply nice to have -- except Splash ID!, which IMHO, is necessary to protect my development personal, professional, and development information. I was able to get a work around for Splash ID, for which I'm thankful.

Excuse my ignorance, but how is this at all new? There's been a gapps hack available for every Archos device for quite some time now. It's always been readily available on ArchosFans.com.

It's a different version which allows for more flexibility, especially for updating the two most useful core apps.

It also has less apps in it, saving space for where the apps are installed, especially since Archos only provided around 275~ MB of space for app installation
And not all apps can move to sd card so any space is helpful
All we need now is the Samsung Galaxy Tab email app ported over. If anyone has any idea please share.
Thanks for posting the info for my gAppsInstaller. I've been away from the game for a few days now doing housework "mods" (=
The only issue remaining that I'm aware of with this app is a certain sub-set of apps that FC (AutoZone, OSMonitor and a few others mentioned in this thread. I haven't had time to research, but whatever the gApps4Archos is doing is making these work ok... I'm thinking its some registration of dll files ('so' files perhaps). I do know it copies 4-5 .so files into the froyo/system directory, but i'm not sure right now if I need to do some type of '.so' file registration with them.
If any linux guru's out there know of something I need to do specifically with these (besides copying them to the '/froyo/system' directory, please let me know.
libspeech.so
libvoicesearch.so
libzxing.so
libimageutils.so
libinterstitial.so

There is the guru! I thought i share it with the XDA members
Your question: I searched for an explenation about registering the .so files and found this link: http://users.actcom.co.il/~choo/lupg/tutorials/libraries/unix-c-libraries.html#shared_dlopen
just checking - these instructions are for 2.2 only ?
-thanks for posting this in a clear easy to follow way and thanks to kenyu73 for all the work

I dont think he created the original gApps4Archos package, he only de-compiled it, added the updated the apps with the newer 2.2 market then vanished.
I think he dropped of the radar after he did the re-package of that app.

My app doesn't include youtube (i required you to get it from the market) so I'm not sure why you say it wont update.
Did you use this one or gApps4Archos?
yes i use that and youtube comes with it but it keeps fc and it wont download from market
I've been working at this for about 2 hours now. All I want is to update my phone to Android 2.
The situation is as follows:
I have an original HTC Hero, build 1.76.405.6 etc. I'm trying to install the ROM update to 2.73.405.5. I have to install it with HTCSync. Since I'm on Windows 7, the original HTCSync that came with the phone has issues with the drivers. I've tried several ways of installing those drivers manually, and eventually resorted to using the new all-purpose HTCSync from the HTC website. The program itself works, but, now, when I'm trying to sync, that action itself does not work. If I try to install the update, the connection turns off. If I try to sync the files, it fails to access the PIM. And I already made Outlook my default program on PC, which, according to sources, should have helped the issue.
Oh, and it seems I can't download apps through the marketplace at this time anymore either. I'm not sure if this is related or not, but better safe than sorry, right?
I can't find anything else on this in the archives, so I'm asking you all for help.
Oh, and my knowledge of these kinds of phones is barely above digibetic, so, please, I beg of you, no solutions that have me crack open the entire software shell, or something like that?
Thanks in forward, Sonto
This has been bothering me lately. When I open my Instagram (using xperia ray latest Gingerbread stock ROM), and go to "Photo Maps", a dialog box appears saying "Photo Maps requires that the Google Maps Android API is installed on your device
I tried uninstalling and reinstalling both Google Maps and Instagram, I restarted my device too. But it doesnt solve the problem.
I tried checking /system/framework/com.google.android.maps.jar , I thought I lost this file but the file is there..
This is a rare problem and I only found 2 search results on Google about this problem, and both were found on XDA forum. One had his problem solved by placing this .jar file there. The other one tried placing the .jar file but no luck.
It's bothering me. Because I think it will affect other application that uses google maps. But I'm not sure. And I don't want to reinstall the whole ROM because I have partitioned my SD card, put many stuff in it, I dont want to start it all over just because of this small problem.
Thank you very much in advanced.
I am having the same problem, but it has caused me to realize that I cannot download most things that have a main function that utilises the gmaps API... I'm running a CM9 fork, though, so I expect that to be the cause. Furthermore, I tried to replace the files and gapps installation through recovery, it yields no changes. I see no new files, which is odd imo... Placing the JAR through a file manager and rebooting doesn't change anything for me either. Would love a followup because I too have seen the threads Fun is talking about but I have also seen at least a dozen on here that have gone unanswered
yes. Someone has to got to have the solution. So bump.
bump... i guess? I havent been able to fix this. Althoug a simple flash will fix this, I'm curious that we can fix this.
Still having this issue myself.
Running CM10.1 on my Galaxy SII (i9100P), although its not just with my current ROM that I'm having the issue. Tried refladhing ROMs and GAPPS but no joy. Countless data/cache wipes have done notjing to fix it. Also tried the.jar solution but did nothing.
Really annoys me that I can't find a solution.
No one any ideas on what this could be?
Hey! i just moved from a Xperia M to a LGF60 and seems that LG bc its medium-low end has removed the following apps: QuickMemo+,Stock Browser,Music Player,Gallery,Tasks,Flashlight,QSlide,Videos,Health,Voice recorder, Caculator, Voice commands, SmartCleaning,SmartWorld and maybe im forgetting some ones + some crucial and basic configurations.
I found apks of Music Player,Gallery,Smart Cleaning,QuickMemo+,SmartWorld, Calculator, and Voice recorder, only S. Cleaning and QMemo+ were installed succesfully and working 100%. When I tried to install the rest of apps, they show "App not installed". I searched on the root folders for odexs files or whatever they are unpossibiliting the install of those crucial apps and nothing was found.
There's any way to make them install succesfully 100% like changing package name, compilation number, removing sign, etc to make them install? *I'M NOT ROOT, AND WON'T BE, bc i have a secure contract w my carrier and that stuff* Someone can tell me how to change those properties on apps easily on PC or my phone? Any developer that can help me? If someone agrees i will send the apks i need to install :laugh::highfive:
I'm actually using a lot of third party apps for everything, and since always for me that is a horrible thing and they look nothing stock UI and ruins almost the whole experience of the UI.
Someone help and hope u understood my English!

Well, I have the same problem... Where did you find the stock apps for QMemo+, Gallery, Music, etc? I went mad looking for those with no results.... I'd really appreciate if you can share where did you find those.... You can send a private message to avoid spam if neccesary.
I read that you can use a custom ROM to solve the problem, but i'm not sure to do that... So if you can share those apps.... and by the way I also can't connect to lg pc suite via usb because I don't have the "LG Software" option on the USB plug menu... I just have "charge", "MTP" and "PTP"...
Thanks in advance!!
I have been going mad trying to find the lg music apk is there anyway that you could send me a link to where you found the apk please id be seriously grateful

i tried upgrading my metropcs LG f60 to lollipop (i tried 5.0 something and 5.1 something) and the camera didn't work so now i'm trying to go back to the stock rom/firmware/operating system that the phone came with.
does anyone know where i can get it?
i need the rom/firmware/operating system (whatever the terminology is) for a united states lg f60 that works with metropcs.
if anyone knows where i can find please get back to me quickly. i can't use my phone w/o it. can't scan anything, can't take pictures...basically freakin doomed right now.
oh, the file needs to have the .kdz extension with the software i'm using to try to restore it.
