Can someone modify APK file for Android 4.4+ to run on Android 4.2.2? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello, can someone modify this app so then work on Android 4.2.2 (SDK Api 17)?
Da Player 2.21 (download apk link) - https://apkpure.com/da-player-video-and-live-stream-player/com.daplayer.android.videoplayer
The app requires a minimum version Android 4.4 (api 19) but my old tablet runs on Android 4.2.2 (api 17).
I have an old Prestigio PMT5487_3G and I'm limited with Android 4.2.2. Infact the tablet is not so bad, it has 8" display, 1GB Ram and 16GB rom and 4 core cpu MT6582 at 1300Mhz. But there is no software support by Prestigio. I believe with these specs, even some custom Android 5 would run smoothly but also there is no custom roms for this tablet
Please help me, just I want to watch online streams with DA Player but I can't.
Thanks in advance!

No one is going to do it for you on this forum, you may ask for steps on how to do it but you have to do it yourself, that's one of the forum's principles.
Search for a guide on app development or modification.
Try extracting the apk.
Once extracted, open AndroidManifest.xml with a text editor.
Look out for minSdkVersion=19.
Change 19 to 17 and save it.
Compress the folder as zip.
Install ZipSigner app from Play Store.
Enter the path of your zip file in input.
Change the extension of your output file in the output field path from .zip to .apk and begin the process.
Try installing the new apk.
If it doesn't work, look for tutorials on how to do it yourself.

The attached should work but, there's no guarantees that it will.

Panasonic KX-PRX120 android DECT phone

Let's open a new thread for this device. The device is interesting and I think it will get popularity.
I have this device. Need community assistance!
I have this device, it runs ICS 4.0.4, feels quite old.
I wanted to updated this to Jelly Bean at least, many popular apps are not available in the store, or simply do not work with it.
No 'Talking Caller ID' app works with it currently, all of them say 'Call from Unknown'.
I'm willing to compile Cyanogenmod from source if necessary (if and when I learn how to do it), but I'd like to create an existing image backup for my device first. Also, I'll need to ensure that the Landline App and DECT 6.0 features from Panasonic would work on my new rom.
Any tips anyone? Or am I looking at the impossible?

Hi,
I rooted the KX-PRX150 with installing NewKingrootV5.0.0_C161_B367_xda_release_2016_11_23_20161123203507_105243.apk . I was able then to change the verison of android from 4.0.4 to 4.1.1. int the build.prop file. - no new rom installed. -That's allows me to receive video calls from whatapp. Outgoing vido calls are still not possible. Still looking for a solution.
Kind regards,
Andreas

[Q] Run windows on android [Dual Boot]

So these days i was googling for a way to really install windows 8 on android tablets. I came over a video about a software called "changemysoftware". It seems it would make your devicea dual boot with windows 8 and android. What do you think? Is this fake?
Link:
http://changemysoftware.org/
Yes. It is fake.

But theres a video of someone installing it on their Android, it dual boots windows 8 and android, but windows 8 was laggy due to his dual core tab. There were 200+ likes and 20+ dislikes so, seems legit, he also uploaded the program onto ZippyShare so that you didn't have to do the survey, but when I tried it tells me the software is outdated and needs to be updated, so I cant do it unless I update it completing the survey...
You do know that it can still be faked right?
Give me half an hour and I'll show you how to install any OS on any device. All that was is a video of something on someone's PC screen.
Okay, I know this I am late for the talk but I think this is best for future questions. Just to be clear for other people who is confused with this scam.
The program is .NET framework based so I decompiled it with .NET Reflector. I got the source and trust me, there is no ADB related code. It is picture and text popping out. Also if you try to rename one of its .DLL file, it is the text "changemysoftware" spamming around to make hundreds kilobytes file. You might think I'm lying so you better see the source itself, download the attachment.
Note: Reflector failed to decompile it into Visual basic or C# so .IL file is only working. Try to find "ButtonX_Click" event in the Form1.il. Pictures and assets are in the .resources file.
fake images only
It's a fake. I just tried without connection any device. it showed as my device locked and have to contact them to unlock. to drag money....

Change my software is fake! But there are many ways to run windows on Android:
Can you install it with BOCHS, but it is Windows XP
Can you use TeamViewer but you need a PC
If you find 2 tablets with the same hardware but one with Android the other Windows one then it is not a problem this dual boot with just a some fix to the bootloader. Or if you collect all of the drivers from windows tablets and find Android tablet with hardware that has win drivers and then mod the windows rom...
Only phone I've ever seen that on was the old HTC HD2.

You can't do that, but may be ask a dev to build a Windows arm build may be?
Technically, yes.You can find arm64 windows rom on UUPdump.
But it does not works on any android so we need to develop.
First you need a rooted 64bit phone with twrp and unlocked bootloader.
Then wait for a dev to re-partition device to only /system ,/ recovery and /bootloader.
Then he needs to develop drivers for that device.
That dev also needs to debug a uefi bootloader and after bootting from usb and install windows,thats done.
But it still need a arch converter which is placed in windows installer that can convert X86 or AMD64 apps (.exe)(.msi)into ARM64 apps.
It is hard so no one(at least not me ) can do this and the device-adding speed will be extremely slow.
(You need to re-develop when the cpu is changed. So only the arch-convertor is usable when you are working on a different device.)
[This is the full process to building windows arm64 build ]
Please note that arm32 is not supported.

[Q] Cisco Dx80 - Android Based General Firmware

Dear Team,
I'm quite new in this Forum and I'm sorry If this 3d is not in the right section
I'm going to "play" with my New Cisco Dx80 device, I would like to install a Standard Android Firmware.
At the moment there is an installtion of Cisco Customized Android 4.1.1 .
The Devices is based on ARM Cortex A9 @ 1.5Ghz with GPU PowerVr SGX544.
Using EsFile Explorer, I found in /system/app several apk including Galaxy4.apk, Galaxy4.odex ; seems that Cisco take the firmware somewhere (from galaxyS4?) and customized it according their needs; also the Couple A9+SGX544 seems like the same of several Galaxy S4 hardware.
The question is : there is a way to install "general" Android firmware release (rooted) that is compliant with the describer hardware ?
Thanks a lot.
Cisco DX80 Device
Did you ever find a way to put a generic Android release on this device ? I'm in the same situation with a DX80 and would just like to get a more current version of Android for it.
Thanks

upgrade nabi big tab 24 to lollipop?

Nabi makes a giant touchscreen which I would like to use for a unity3d project. It's called the big tab 24. It comes with kit kat 4.4. and on top runs it's own OS for kids.
nabi.com has information about the tablet -- I am unable to post a link because I'm new to the forum.
I need some sound features that exist only in lollipop 5.1 for my project.
How would I update a device like this to lollipop 5.1?
Would I need to root it? I am a complete noob at android having previously only worked on IOS.

A 5.1.1 official or custom rom has to available for the device first, otherwise it won't be possible

Is it possible to patch pokemon go to work on 4.3. Jelly Bean? Or get a beta version?

Hi Guys,
I really looked forward to playing Pokemon Go and was really shocked when i saw that the release version of it supports just android 4.4. kitkat and onwards but no older versions. My phone is stuck on 4.3 jellybean and cant be rooted so im sitting here sadly now I already managed to get the app installed by using Gmaps patcher, it also starts but won`t let me sign in via google or pokemon club. So now im asking you guys at xda, who are the most amazing guys in android scene, is there ANY possibility to make it work on android 4.3 jelly bean? The fact that it was planned for 4.3. in the beginning and beta testers claimed it would work on that version leaves me with al glance of hope.
Here are some ideas i have as a noob:
Since its possible to install the game and make it run, but just signing in wont work i guess the app is not far from running on 4.3. On top of that the games developer and beta testers claimed it working on 4.3 and onwards. So i guess in early stages it already WAS running on 4.3. Maybe it can be patched or modified in a way that it will work? If so, is anybody willing to work on that proect? Im affraid me as a noob is no option.
The Fact that beta testers and the developer said it would work on 4.3 might mean that an older version or beta version would run on 4.3.? Is there anybody who has a old/beta/field test version to test that?
Is there any other option? Or is it complete hopeless? Please try to help me, i was waiting for this great game so long and now i cant pay it, while all my friends do

Ah that sucks. I think there are some apps that where being back portet. If it's viable to Pokémon go too i dont know through.
You could buy a cheap as android Phone with android 5.0
For example ZTE blade l3 it should be around ~80 to 90 bucks, if you can afford that much

Thank you for our answer. Maybe someone knows if this gets packported maybe? Im sure lots of people would appreciate much.
You can dowload 0.13.5 version.that work.
you can't install apk files that uses higher API level (Pokemon GO, 19) on older Android version (Jelly Bean, 16). It's like trying to use a remote tv controller like a cellphone, you're trying to use a function that your system doesn't have. i don't think a generic patcher can solve this and i don't know where you found that apk, but you should be careful of what you install on your device. Anyway, out of curiosity i checked for you, given the possibility that for some "strange" reason Niantic decided to set the minimum sdk level to 19 without really use any functions that is not supported in Jelly Bean (whaaa? so why use higher API level than? maybe cause if you are running on KitKat you are 90% running on a "new" device, this is faster than making a list of hundreds of compatible phones). Worst case scenario is that you will get a NoClassDef exception (probably) and of course app crash.
(the following is not a piracy attemp, we are not trying to hack anything. it's intended for learning purpose and to satisfy your curiosity)
ok, let's start :
so, you need to set minimum sdk to Jelly Bean level (16)
to do this , you will need to edit the AndroidManifest.xml file, inside the apk, adding this line
("<uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="16">)
and of course deleting any labels or parameters that are not recognized by 16 API level (in Pokemon Go case : things like android :isGame, android : banner, etc..)
(oh..but you can't just edit the manifest inside the apk, that is compiled. you need to decompile it first)
even if doing this doesn't break the app (very improbable) now you need to recompile it again (just for obtain a new compiled manifest file, that you can inject in the original app using Winrar/Winzip..infact .apk are just jar/zip files).
of course, we can always just edit the compiled manifest, just need to be able to read, unreadble anti human characters.
so, now it's "working" on android 4.1 , but can't get past splash screen, hangs after that
stuck at -- E/dalvikvm(32567): dlopen("libNianticLabsPlugin.so") failed: Cannot load library: load_library(linker.cpp:750): library "libNianticLabsPlugin.so" not found --

i don't think you should distribute a modded apk, even if it's free
anyway i'm really curious, can you tell me what you did? i'm hitting a roadblock
oo
Could we go the other direction? Is it possible to install the required libraries that 4.1/4.3 is missing and fake the system version to Pokemon Go?
Mine wont install at all on 4.3

Does it? Will it work in North America, and can you change the language to English? From what I've seen, this is the Japanese beta release.
A trustworthy download link would be nice as well, as there are some fishy apk's floating around.

actually, Pokemon Go can be installed on Android 4.1. it hangs after the splashscreen because it can't "see" some .so files (even if they are inside lib folder). it seems to be cause of a different behaviour of dlopen on different Android platforms.
i'm trying to get a list of dependences for that libray and see if it can be workarounded
