Can anyone help me with moving the ringtone file from CM6 to the new 2.2 sense?
I really don't like all the girly ringtones that HTC/Sense have stock.
Is it as easy as copy as unzipping both roms, copy/pasting the ringtones in the media file, re-zipping, and re-flashing?
Thx in advance.
wrong forum. This forum is for android development.

i actually tried moving the HTC ringtones/notifications/etc into the CM6 proper directories for this, and they didn't show up. my guess is that they're specified statically in a file somewhere as well...
another one on another day

Thanks guy. But if I have to unzip roms and change things around, why is that any different than how most "developers" started out?

I am trying to dig through an old summiter ROM to extract ringers but can't find the ringers. I am looking at the ROM using WinRAR, but there is some NK file that is the largest of all; are ringers in there?
That is noob I know but I haven't broken up a ROM since the old Summiter days, and am lost.
What tools are there to break up a ROM to see the indivudual files in them?
I saved you the trouble as I keep those on my SC. Here's summiter's wavs and themes.
(I'm such a pack rat, keep every ROM Summiter, Faria, Molski and the rest of the rat pack ever released (and many that never made it to being released)
Enjoy!

Hello, atlast after 3days of download and work i have made a custom Rom that has my name on it with HTC Desire HD stuff and updates but now what i need to ask is :
1) how can i put my name Rom name in the Notification like RCMix or the others?
2) any easy way to make boot screens or animations or so found but that i can edit or anything?
3) any way to make a custem theme there is only the online thing and sadly i dont knw how to use it or its limited, i want like AuraxTSense is it possible?
4) if i have a update.zip file that has in it an .apk can i take it and add it to the app section and it will work normaly?
that is it for now thanks a lot for all the help i get and links....
To add your own version number, open the build.prop file and add it to the end of the 'Software version' line
To build themes from scratch, I believe that you'd have to rip apart the res-framework.apk.

mmm ill give this a try and see what i can reach but are there tools to change or its just rip and have fun
If you change the .apk to .rar you can extract and see some jpegs and whatnot in their folders. This should be the one to edit.
Then again, these are the things I've picked up from the chatter between the more senior and tech-savvy.

there is no jpegs only .png and not what i want and what u gave me doesnt have anything to do with themes i have no idea why its themepro.... anyways ill look more into it but if there is something starigh to the point or video im thankfull im still searching
OK, I have been searching and searching. I can find a lot of places where they post mods but I was hoping there would be a walkthrough for first timers. I would like to start modding some of the apps on my phone. (AKA Widgets transparent or themed). is there a place I can find what files contain what images for HTC Sense? when I was playing with modding in windows mobile sense I found a lot of info but I can not seem to find too much here.
I believe these are the steps:
1. get apk
2. unzip and change images
3. repack apk
4. copy apk to /system/app
I am not sure how to repack a apk yet (any pointers would be great). I am not sure I am suppose to get the apk from the system folder or from the website? by copying it to the system folder is that enough? or do I have to install it?
Any little pointers would be great.
Thanks,
SoBBie

What is the reason behind naming apk "com.WORDHERE.APPNAMEHERE" is there a certain pattern to follow for this? Thank You!
Thread moved to Q&A.
It defines the namespace for your app. Usually it is a reversed version of your domain name. For instance, my domain is webosnerd.com, so my packages are com.webosnerd.appname. I think it's a Java thing.

It all has to do with the way the file system is set up. If u look in the apk after its recompiled in the smali files Ull see a set of folders...first one will be com then the folder inside of that will be the com.here then the folder inside of that will be next like this com.here.next. meaning if u were looking in on ur computer it would look like this com/here/next. Its a way of calling files
thanks for the help guys! i'm gearing myself to make my first android app... or maybe i'll start with themes. Thanks!

Yes, it's a Java development pattern / best practice. Android apps are written using the Java language so most developers follow Java best practices when they develop for Android.
As to WHY it's a best practice: The .apk is just a .zip file that makes it easy to move the app around. The Android Market only has to keep track of one .apk file instead of the thousand of files that actually make up the application. Once the .apk file is on the device it is inflated back into a set of files/folders. When it does the unzipping, dots are replaced with /'s and we end up with something like:
/com/SuttCo/AppNumberOne/FolderA/file.jpg
/com/SuttCo/AppNumberOne/FolderB/file.jpg
/com/SuttCo/AppNumberOne/FolderC/file.jpg
/com/SuttCo/AppNumberTwo/FolderA/file.jpg
/com/SuttCo/AppNumberTwo/FolderB/file.jpg
As you can see... both SuttCo apps share the /com/SuttCo/ directory.
tl; dr; It's so things stay organized.
Greetings!
I originally posted a troubleshooting question relating to file naming conventions and the inability to rename a file once it has been erroneously named....
short version: I am requesting the "SamsungCamera.odex" file from the T-Mobile Galaxy S3 phone. Mine is corrupted and as such I cant utilize the camera or the video camera on the phone.. (not too fun on a brand new phone...)
For the long version(or to help me see how/why this happened or how to fix it the correct way... please see this thread.
Thank you, in advance, for anyone that can please help me to fix this incredibly annoying problem.

Here you go, dude. (.odex isn't listed as a valid file extension for upload on the forum, so I zipped it.)

Thank you so much!!!!
I'm going to try placing that file in the /system/app folder right now and hopefully that will restore stock functionality to the video camera!
Will follow up!
Thank you a million! .. quite sincerely!
That worked like a charm!
Dropped the (correctly named) SamsungCamera.odex file in the /system/app folder, renamed the modified camera apk to ".apk.modded" and renamed the original apk file back to ".apk" extension and viola: Instant camera functionality.
Thank you, again, so much.
You've literally made my day!
Thank you.
Hi! Could you upload the original SamsungCamera.apk, please? Because when I'm tried to install HX Camera mod, i put the two files into a zip, when the Root Browser crashed. The two files were gone, and the zip became corrupt. After this, i put the mod to system\app. On the first run, it worked, but after a while it crashed. I run the camera again and it crashed after a time, again, and again. So I decided to try the video. And now it doesn't even want to start. So that's why i request the stock camera, and please upload as soon as possible. Thanks.
