[Q] Changing the name of Application - Bada Software and Hacking General

I searched over my microSD, and what I found is, in the folder "others" there is a bada application folder, they consist most of the bada app source if I am not mistaken.
So I was wondering, is there a way to change the name of installed apps, for some apps the name is too long and it is not very nice either.
2ndly, can I backup all the files in it. For example asphalt so that the save game is backup?
3rdly, if, just if I flash the whole phone, then I copy the bada apps folder back, will my game show up? Thanks

1. You can change the name of app example: sy7343nds -> Data -> Application.xml (Open with notepad or wordpad) here you can find the name of the Application.
2. I'm honestly do not know but I think yes
3. No

Thanks for the quick reply. So, I was wondering, for no3, all I can do is try to download back whatever I can install. Then replace the new folder with old one? As I figure out the folder no are the same for particular apps.
[edit] just tried out no.1, but I can't find any application.xml

Yes you can, go to xxxxxxxxxx/Info/application.xml where 'xxxxxxxxx' is the code of the app folder and simply change:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
<Application>
<Entry>NotImportant</Entry>
<Name>
<English>ChangeThis</English>
</Name>
...
than disconnect, change phone language with what you want and then rechange it restoring your previous one.

Yes you can do it, search in xxxxxxxxxx/Data/ folder, you should find some saves file, the name and the extension depends on the application.

No, info about installed applications are stored in a registry into os partition.

You can change name of installed applications and games on SD card with new spoofer...

how can i do to change the name for spoof applz (NDrive, games,ecc) ?
If I try to use it:
You can change the name of app example: sy7343nds -> Data -> Application.xml (Open with notepad or wordpad) here you can find the name of the Application.
I see only the original name of this applz, but i want change the name on the Bada MenĂ¹...
Ex: i have the NDrive icon with write TripTracker
Thanks

So if i backup the registry folder using stune or some other s/w, will I be able to restore the apps if I restore the registry folder after a flash..?
Thanks

don't know, you should try, problems are:
- where and what is the registry file in question, it is possible that this file is not on the partition visible by stune-tkfileexplorer;
- this registry is probably signed or encrypted;
restoring all the registry folder after a flash could generate many errors of inconsistency and/or could be useless...

about 2 secrets

I have 2 questions that they are beating my brain for a long time and asked about them at several threats but nobody answered. May be nobody knows or want to share.
I am sorry if these questions are answered in some threats but I could not find.
1. "Showsim" registry: If we create a registry dword named ShowSim at HKCU\ControlPanel\Phone and give it a value "0", the contact names recorded in SIMCARD don't be visible at contact menu. That is good,but after a soft reset this registry value turns back to "1" dword value, why? Should we do something before cooking rom that ShowSim stay tuned after soft reset?
On HongKong ROMs this value stays at the value of what I want after soft reset.
2. Shellres.192.dll: If we want to customize the windows taskbar, we should change the shellres.192.dll. Well, but OS doesn't let me to rename or delete or copy this .dll even by means of Total Commander or Resco. Many people can do that but I can not, why? Is there any tricky that special to some ROMs? If so, what is difference on these ROMs from my official ROM?
Thanks in advance to who reply me...

For question number 2. Which Resco version you are using? Am using v7.5 and there's no problem on overwriting shellres.192.dll. Not sure if untick the option for "hide system files and files with the following extensions: .DLL, .CPL..." help. There's no secret on overwriting that files .

I am using Resco 7.5 too and unticked "hide system files and ..." but no way.
I saw many people who don't solve this problem when I were searching...
Point two: Try Total Commander ( Freeware ), download here:http://www.ghisler.com/

tried it also
you can try this, first rename the shellres.192.dll to shellres.192.old with totalcommander then put in the new file than delete shellres.192.dll.old sometimes i had the same problem when i do like this it work perfectly for me.
good luck

Not sure if there's differences in way of overwriting the file or just because of the existence of a registry key that allow or disallow the overwrite of dll file (this might need to search if I've tweak certain registry key but forgot to note that down). For Resco usage, this is the way i replace or overwrite the file.
- copy the file shell192.dll to a temporary folder in my storage card
- using Resco, navigate to the folder
- right click on the file, then choose "copy to"
- you will see a screen prompting you to choose the folder you want to copy to
- now click on "Windows"
- another prompt will be asking you if you would like to replace the read only ROM file
- answer "yes"

Go to \windows\startmenu\programs now you can create the new folder there.. and copy the shortcut of the programs that you want to put inside that folder....( from \program file\XXX or \Storage Card\program file\XXX ) XXX being the software folder name
and if you are talking about the how to create an app which would make a newfolder in programs then... you need to change the instalation directory to something like this %ProgramFiles%\XXX... this will create a new folder in the start menu...

Have you tried pulling the apk, changing the name with some apk editor (also the com.###.### stuff) and see if it installs next to the other app? I have no idea how to do this but it might work.

Extract SMS on WP7

Hello there,
just for your info - maybe it helps somebody:
after some days of trying i found the shortmessages (with tel-number etc.) and some other stuff in a file:
1. Explore your phone with Windows Phone Device Manager
2. goto \Application Data\
3. Add "\Microsoft" to the path (under the file-explorer logo)
4. goto Outlook\Stores\DeviceStore
5. Rename "store.vol" to something like "store.vol.txt" (it is mandatory to rename this file - without this step the file is in use by outlook)
6. extract it (drag n drop)
7. run perl script (#perl test.pl store.vol.txt)
8. See output
Maybe one of you could build a backup application or something like that!
Link to perl script:
http://uploaded.to/file/he26q0d2
Original source of script:
http://www.pocketpcjunkies.com/Uwe/Forum.aspx/pocketpc-dev/21040/Reading-pim-vol-EDB-File-on-a-PC
Edit:
Don't know if you've seen it:
\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook\Stores\DeviceStore\data
ALL emails and other messages + contact-pictures + signature (three sizes) (just edit the file extension to .html or .jpeg - hex edit helps to find what is right )
\Application Data\Microsoft\Internet Explorer
-> TabsStorage.bin: Opened tabs from internet explorer (where are the cookies?! )
\Applications\Data\82A23635-5BD9-DF11-A844-00237DE2DB9E\Data\IsolatedStore
ALL Facebook-Information (if app is installed), including messages, pictures, notifications etc. etc.
\Application Data\Location\Cache
Wifi & GSM Data when features is enabled in WP7-preferences (encrypted?! don't know..)
Much more to come...
greets

Thanks! Looks interesting, I might try that!
Hey just wondering but does syncing with outlook have the option to sync texts? Only reason I wonder is because you said that file was in use by outlook....

Hey,
i just THINK it's in use
If you look at this file without renaming it's at 0,00 KB and you can't extract it. Maybe the contacts-tile or something else is using it
Hi Endeffekt,
thank you for this great hint!
But one more question before I try. Is it possible, to rename the file after the procedure back to "store.vol" without losing the messages on the phone?

WP7 creates a copy of this file (automatic), so no problemo sir
Great! Alle messages are there. But the script doesnt work for me.
Now we need a smart developer who can make a viewer for it.
Is there a way to copy the vol file back to the phone? Or is the file always locked? For restore reasons...
I think this is very interesting (possibility to backup/restore SMS), so probably we should keep it on the front page so the devs could notice it.
Has anybody tried to restore that store.vol into the device after a reset? I mean rename the current store.vol to any filename, then copy the backed up store.vol to the phone and restart.
I'd like to try but i need to get hold all my current sms!

SMS retreival on Windows phone 7 using device manager
Hey all.
I have an Samsung Omnia phone 7. Dev unlocked. Running 7.0.7004.0
Anyone any idea how to view the file in question? I need to download this file, and save the SMS entries to my PC.
When I use device manager, I cant see a folder called
\Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook\Stores\DeviceStore
I mean, when I copy and paste the above text into the path, its just beeps and doesnt show anything.
On the root under file explorer, I have
My Documents (which is empty)
Windows (lots of files in it)
-ActiveSync
-Application Data
--KeyStorage
-AppMgr
-ColdInit
-eventlog
and a few others
When I open the Application Data folder, I only have a 'Key Storage' (certainly no Microsoft folder, and I tried typing it incase it was hidden or something , but just a ping sound and no refresh of the file list)
and when I open Key Storage, I have no files.
Any help working out why I cant see these folders / store.vol file would be very much appreciated
Does Windows Phone Device Manager not support this functionality on the Omnia?
Thanks
this should be a sticky, and testers needed
Using the diagnosis code 5**6244*3
I was able to open the Apps Launcher and Shortcuts Menu and can confirm that the path \Application Data\Microsoft\Outlook\Stores\DeviceStore exists on my Focus.
In that folder, I have:
temp
0
4
6
3
19
8
Each of these folders has a list of single alpha named folders (a, b, c, d, e, etc...)
Each of these alpha folders has a single .dat file
I haven't tried to extract those files to try to play with them. I don't know how I would with the Focus... But just confirming the path exists on my Focus and has the .dat files
thank you munkeyphyst, still waiting for endeffekt

[TWEAK] Install homebrew apps as settings apps

In the WMAppManifest.xml of the app, add HubType="268435456" to the App tag, and deploy the app. See attached images.
You can also pin Extras to Start for quick access.
Really useful for keeping harmful editing stuff out of the way of people who feel the need to use your phone without your permission.
Good find, bud! He-he, someone should try to publish the app with that hack (if store will not block it of course)
Needed to restart phone after deploy to show in settings.
4-5yrs old trick anyway, just keep search on xda even in WP7.8 forum
Djtonka, how to pin to start apps from settings?
remove the HubType="268435456 from manifest file
So why before audio settings had the posibility to pin to start? It was in settings,-extras. before....
it has been redesigned for Win10
Nevermind: if on the last fast ring build cant open any deployed app, modify the wpappmanifest to deploy in HUB. Then the app will work. Happend to me with custom pfd, wptweaker, roottool jailbreak version.
Hi,
Can you please give me an xap file which include HubType="268435456" tag in WMAppManifest.xml of the app. I tried to add but not able to save the xml as it gives some error. If possible, please send me the xap
Thanks

does not work.
1. open the .xap in the archive
2. add HubType = "268435456" in WMAppManifest.xml
3. Close the file, saving changes.
4. copy the .xap into the phone, install, and .... nothing is installed ..
I tried and so
1. Unzip the files in the .xap in folder
2. add HubType = "268435456" in WMAppManifest.xml
3. archived back to zip archive. renamed zip into a .xap. and again nothing ...
