I don't know the right way of deodex your rom. I used deodexer tool develop by BDFreak. First I extracted all system app and framework files from system and framework folder to my PC. Then deodex all system and framework files then replace in my system and framework folder and delete remaining dex files.
If you get better way to do that then go for it. Do it on your own risk.

Even if that thing you did would work for my phone id have a hard time doing it from the limited info you said Im quite a newbie when it comes to phones. But im not sure its for my phone, I think I need a specific program for my phone, not sure tho..

Every android can deodex by using deodex tool. It is not meant for specific model. Copy your system apps and framework files to pc. Deodex and again transfer to your to android. You can make flashable zip to add deodex apps and jar files to your android.

VM env. for Stock ROM and Mod

Hi,
I'm currently woring on creating a complete VM and a document with instraction of getting from compile to flahsing from begining.
The complete enviroment will be set and ready with the Stock ROM (currently targeting 4.0.2.A.0.58) and the Android OS.
This will allow users to be able to take this VM and start right a away to change the Stock ROM and integrate changes for that from other modes.
will update this thread when it's done. and links for download (unless someone will be faster the me )
18/12 Update:
Just now finish creating an working and compiling enviroment with 2.3.4_r1 of Android
now working on making it to work with the Sony Ericson source code...
Regards,
LaBBa.
Hi,
I need a little help here... i have followed the steps in Google:
http://source.android.com/source/initializing.html
and also the Journal:
http://journal.tianhao.info/2010/12/compile-android-gingerbread-on-ubuntu-10-10/
i have compiled the code and got it up and running and also in emulator with the command line that was written in the Journal and the Android is working..
now i try to understand the Sony Ericson guide:
http://developer.sonyericsson.com/wp/2011/05/06/how-to-build-a-linux-kernel/
I have downloaded the ARM cross-compiler and installed it, was really bad instructions on how to install it. but just need to run: sh ./the_downloaded.bin
and installed it correctly
after installing the ARM cross-compiler successfully done a make to the kernel but only after fixing the symbolic link that from some reason was attach to 0x86 arch and not arm.
the paths where different since i used the default installer path and match the same version that they used: 2010q1
so first done this for the .config :
ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=~/CodeSourcery/Sourcery_G++_Lite/bin/arm-none-linux-gnueabi- make semc_zeus_defconfig
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
then run the make:
ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=~/CodeSourcery/Sourcery_G++_Lite/bin/arm-none-linux-gnueabi- make
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
now i got kernel compiled!
the question is:
i know that with the Android compiling i got 3 files in the /source_android/out/target/product/generic:
1. ramdisk.img
2. system.img
3. userdata.img
do i need to use the ramdisk from the Android for the next steps of SE guide ?
1. Getting a RAM disk and extract it
2. Re-package it with all of the kernel of SE that we just compiled
3. Assembling the boot.img using the mkbootimg
moreover, after i assemble the files i want to make a really clean installation and cleaning all the flash and installing all in a vanilla mod.
what should be the next steps ?
Regards,
LaBBa.
I thought that the community here will help in this small matter so we will have more pepole that could join the efforts of making brtter and cooller roms... I guess I was wrong. All I wanted to do is help the dev community and create the full step by step guide to starting developers in the android world....
Sadly I'm forced to end this thread due to lake of knowledge...

im sorry i would help but i dont know much lol srry no one that knew could or would help
hi,
I hope that you are able to get this working.
i will use it when it is finished
Edit: what have you exactly done?
Maybe i can help
all i wanted to do is to download all the source codes and compile it and then creat the same version (for this case the .58) manually and get to the same images that need to be flahed.
i wanted to create from this a complete tut that others that have allot of knowladge in development could start working without the stragling of setting up an eviroment or all the issues about how to get from compiling to acctuall creating an .img to flash it on your device.
just a simple "out of the box" solution so pepole could get and work right a way without wasting time in assembling the source codes and setting then env.
ok, and where are you?
I mean what have you done for now??
please see the second post.. it's all there..
yes you need that ramdisk for the kernel.
but you need to edit the ramdisk to work with the xperia play.
i can do that, can you upload it??
what i'm going to do now is, i'm going to upload all the VM to the web and write the complete tutrial for all the steps i have done so far and then we could continue. thank you for trying to help!
ok,
if you need some help PM me!

[Q] Porting XPeria Apps to CyanogenMOD9?

Hello Xperia Guyz,
I am from Samsung Galaxy Ace Forums. I wanted to develop a new ROM for my device but I find a difficulty in it. I wanted help from the awesome developers here. I want to ask if there is any way to port the stock Xperia Apps to CM9?
I want Apps like Messaging, Contacts and Dialer from Xperia 2012 to CM9 is there any way to do so?
IN our device, to get a stock app work on non stock based ROMs, we had to copy some framework and system files. Please help me in doing this.
Thanks in Advance
You'll need to do a lot of disassembling/assembling to make it work. Simply put, it's not worth it.
No way like copying some framework and xml files??
And They say porting tw is difficult...
No.
Seems like I would need to work upon a theme then....
Still, thanks

[Q] Pixlr-o-matic mod?

Hello everyone this is my first time posting here
First of all im a noob.
Im not even sure if this is the right section to post a question like this one.
I was using the Pixlr-o-matic app and i got bored with the overlays that includes so i thought i might wanna add more myself.
I opened the app with winzip and found the overlay images in folder (assets-overlay-default-1), i added more and also i added them in the same image size and names and also in the thumbnails folder. I resigned the apk and installed. The new overlays are not appearing i tried to think what i might be doing wrong or what i should do more and i cant come up with an idea...
Im attaching the modded apk and an example of the overlay i wanted to add.
If you need more info to provide ill be glad to reply!
Im using Samsung galaxy S2 (International)
With custom rom ressurection remix v5.0.3 android 4.4.2
Thank you in advance!
The overlays im trying to add.
The modified apk file. I coudlnt upload it here i dont know why..

Where can I download mod version of pixlar app??

Custom Tiles to pretty stock ROM

Hi there guys and girls
I have stock Lollipop Rom, rooted with TWRP installed; I would like to add a few tiles to the very few available at the moment, also if possible reorder them..
I searched and searched, here and on Google, but the only things I found were: old old and useless method for JB, xposed module (cannot install Xposed here, it's an x86_64 CPU) and the Custom Quick Settings app, which doesn't work good for me..
So, I unpacked the framework of the ROM, de-compiled SysteUI.apk but now I'm basically lost because I don't know what to edit to achieve my goal! I can't even understand what to look for: I'm pretty sure my stuff should be in qs* xml and smali files, but it's a mess there
Do you please have any tips for me, any how-to, guide, suggestions, whatever? I take everything!!
Thanks a lor, see you!

Will this do, I would look in your SystemUI first. - http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5/development/mod-t3005222
thanks but I'm already looking at SystemUI but it's plenty of stuff there and it's difficult to change tiles.. Also the thread you linked is only for Samsung Touchwiz, you can see from the attached screenshot that shows the dialog where to pick which tiles/Quick Settings to include.. There the OP just unlock the limited number, but the rest of the stuff is already there..

Just download the firmware for the device you used and extract those files from it...
Actually I wanted to port apps, that's why I needed it, but thank you.
Can I mount it in some virtual machine.
Actually I got them from g8 rom, still wondering is that's possible
