Hi im using OD's rom, but i wanna make some personal stuff to it.
I have found out to integrate apks to the zip file, but after i integrate the apps and install it on my desire, it does not show the files on the market under downloads.
Is there any way to let them show up in there so i could uninstall them if thats what i want?.
Download any app from the market and they should show up... you are putting them in /data/app and not /system/app aren't you?

I put them in system/app,
so if the data folder its not there i just make data/app and place them in there correct?.
Thanks for the reply.
Okay i tryed to make the folder data and inside that i made the app folder and placed all the apk i need.
Seems not to work they dont install automatic when installing the custom rom?
bump!!!!

Put them in /data/app. They will show up. If they don't, you're doing something wrong.

ehm, okay.
I took opendesire 3.6.0. i opend it with winrar and made the folder data and app folder, in the root of the zip file okay? its not there on standard. And then i putted the files in in zip file and signed it.
It does not work. Is there a guide somewhere?. Have trying to search but no luck yet.

when you install an app without using the market, there is no market link for the market to... well... link to.
I use aTrackDog to keep track of my constant backups and flashes etc. it even provides you a market link if you want to update.
Have a look at Titanium Backup as a different way of keeping market links. when restored it can restore the market link necessary for it to show up in the market downloads section
If there is no /data/app folder in the ZIP then simply adding it won't work as the update script won't look for it and flash them - you'd need to ask AdamG (or someone else) to add the lines to the script to make the ROM flash that information as well...
I have been trying to edit an apk file, basically change some pngs. But after iam done I can't install it anymore. Why is that?
I used 7z to open the apk archive and replaced a few pngs. I put the apk on the sdcard, open to install, goes thru installing then fails. Any help would be appreciated.

I kept the same file names and sizes. Do I need to sign them?

You need an apk signing tool. Basically, you put the modified apk, in the signer folder, without the meta-inf folder, and run a quick command, your signed apk is then spit out. I'll attach the one I use when I get back to my laptop.
Hey... I think this thing makes phone calls too!
Here is the APK Signing Tool that I use.
Just unzip it somewhere, put the apk in the auto sign folder, open a command prompt to the folder, and run sign.bat, it should run you through it. There's a read me file in there, read it in case I forgot something.
Also, when editing market apps, they need to be resigned, but if ur editing built in app from the system, they do not. The HTC signature needs to remain intact on those.
Worked perfectly. Thank you.

I've received a couple of emails from a friend that has a .zip file attached. However, when viewing the email, the .zip file has "info" next to it......when I tap that, it says "Unfortunately, you can't save or open this type of attachment." I've have AndroZip app installed.....so what else do I need to do to be able to download this file type? Other files, such as pdf's and doc's give me the option to save, preview, view.
From the Play Store download
Download all files app by MDJ Software.
Already have that installed.

Dang, I have always used that app for that but you're right, I just tried it and got the same thing as you.
I bet gmail does that because it thinks all zip files are malicious.
There are a few different apps on the market (Play Store) for doing this but I can't find one that has been updated to work with ICS.
Google really needs to build this into the Gmail.apk
Boat Browser or any Browser that you can change your UA to desktop, then go to gmail.com

What I recently discovered is, that if you forward your mail with the .zip attachement to yourself, or anybody else, the download button appears ...
Really stupid way, but that could be a solution for you? :good:
i cant download zip file from my gmail
So here is my problem.
When using my hotspot on my Win8 computer, it wont let me click through certain webpages like cashback websites like bigcrumbs and ebates and gets stuck on the redirection pages like "anrdoezrs.net" when tranfering me to a specific website. It won't fuly transfer me through to the store I want to gain cashback at.
I recently got the new computer with Win8 on it. Now that I have have tried my hotspot on multiple Win8 computers with it not working, I'm assuming it must be the problem. It ran perfectly with Win7 beforehand.
I am currently running [ROM]Phantom's Blazer Rom[Yo][8/2/12][v0.1.5][FF18]
I did notice on the tethering options of my phone that it did not list that it supported Win8. (Yet it does work for mostly all of the websites except the ones I'm speaking of).
Is there a way to fix my problem with the Rom version I'm running right now? (I know its a little outdated).
Do I need to update to a newer version of the Blazer rom? Or should I get a different rom?
(I need to have a rom that has the 4g hacked hotspot and it need to be able to be used with my PS3 for online gaming as well).
Thanks for listening
Do you have adblockers on your phone? This may be the problem.

Blazer rom has it built in. Delete system/etc/hosts file (filename is hosts) with a root browser. If you need it back, I posted an updated one here:

I'm kind of a noob, so how do I get to a root browser? Can you walk me through what I'm suppose to do?

Root explorer is my personal choice as well as many others.
What TD meant, a root browser that will properly read the root directory. Some file browsers fail at that.

Root Explorer on the market is $3.99. Anything free available? Right below it there is a "ES File Explorer File Manager" which is free. Will that work?

Can't figure out where to go still.
I downloaded Rom Toolbox Light.
Then went to system, then to etc, THEN I get the option between "HOSTS" and the one under it is also "hosts".
They both have similar files in them, "text file, image file, music file, video file, zip file, APK file, script file"
Where do I go from her now? And what do I do?
Bump!!!

Bump some moar? Read some moar?
Seriously though, it's a text file. Just delete it or delete its contents.
Also, I believe using your phone as a hotspot without paying for it is violating your TOS. It's a good way to get kicked off the network.
I've an app on my Tab S that I downloaded from the Google Play store and want to have it on my other Tablet, however the app is no longer available on the Play Store. So is there a way to copy the app that's on my Tab S and load it onto my other Tablet?
Thanks

Pretty sure you will need root for that.
The .apk file should be in \data\app or possibly \system\app

I though you could make a back up with samsung-Kies and then pick the apk from the back up dir on your pc.
Thats what I did in the past and I'm not rooted.
Maybe I'm wrong but I see a lot of apk files in the back up dir.

That might work, I've never used Kies so I can't be sure. But all you need is the APK file, so if you can find it on your local PC then your good.

Just back it up with es file manager, zip it and send it via bluetooth..thats it
AnyShare from Lenovo (Link) is a nifty tool to send files from device to device. Have not tried it without root before maybe it works. You can send those app's apk that's already installed to another device.
All user installed apps are in \data\app and you don't need root to copy them out, just a file browser than can navigate to the folder. Some apps that are taken off the Play Store sometimes still appear in the All tab of the My Apps section so have a look there just in case.
