[Q] Remove default applications - Bada Software and Hacking General

Hi guys, somebody know, how can I do to delete/remove the default applications on BADA OS ?
Because i have remove some DEMO games, but for ex: DAILY BRIEFING, EDGE (game), Parachute Panic (game), ect...
How can i do ?
thanks a lot

You have to use Trix.
For removing apps, you need to work on shpapp file.
For the others applications java, it's in ffs file.
You can also removed flash gadget.
Can't find the post in xda... but thanks to kubica.
The link to downloads trix

first edit the firmware and remove/delete the "bad" applz and after i install on Wave?
i have installated Full JID, lite JJ9 and lite JK1. Edit only the last lite fw JK1 ?
thanks

I don't remember but I think there are no applications in JK1's ShpApp.
You need to edit the JID's ShpApp file.

@zefiro1492
Default applications can be removed without flashing, but performing of the master reset it is necessary that will lead to loss of user data.
Java applications are removed by TkFileExplorer here: AppEx\SysDefault\Java\Games, AppEx\SysDefault\Java\Locked Games, AppEx\User\Java.
Next, edit FactoryFSList.dat from the disk P root. This is a list of what will be restored after a master reset, remove the lines pointing to unnecessary files and upload the modified file. Next perform a master reset. Thats all.

All Done!
To use the "TkFileExplorer" use the Debug Mod
Thanks a lot

You could extract this file from *.FFS or grab from handset.
Maybe some tweaking possible...

I already tryed to increase the max. resolution to 8000x8000px for jpg a week ago but it didnt worked
This file exists 2 times and I flashed them correctly to the wave (tested with sTunes after flash), the limits seems to be set somewhere else...
The image sizelimit is also higher than 4096000 byte (or what it is) - about 10 mb.
I would have liked to tweak this setting to 200 or more and see but unfortunately there are not that many good apps to install.
<MaxInstallCount>
<NativeApp value="300"/>
<NativeWidget value="50"/>
<JavaApp value="-1"/>
</MaxInstallCount>
Btw, what does this Java value mean ? Could it be that it controls whether to show icon in Menu or not ?

@ st0rmi
Thanks.
Yes, via sTune this file is twice.
It seems writeprotected files are most in folder SystemFS... as Backup.
If you check via TriX Firmware files. Then Contents.xml is in *.FFS... maybe edit before flashing. Then changes in both files on handset.
Not tested yet...
@ rex4u
At the moment I have nothing changed in this file, so no idea what happens.
Maybe soon few tests...
Best Regards
@adfree: Yeah thats what I have done
I just used sTunes to copy the contents.xml back to my pc and view if the edited xlm are really on my phone because it didnt worked...
@adfree
No bro' I was offering my own suggestions to this configuration file.
It might allow us to install more than 100 apps in phone and show in Menu.
Second it might show Java apps icons in Menu.
My 2 cents
xml parser
please help me
a want to parser punker xml data base.

it's into the 'app counter' field, '-1' may be means 'unlimited' number of java apps installable, but I haven't read yet the whole xml... anyway if it is editable it's an interesting thing..
I saw that file a while ago while looking for something inside my phone (very special thing that made me to copy the whole phone)
there is a lot of interesting things but i never tried tweaking it
Maybe if someone have enough knowledge to add few new extensions and test them
Also removing some stupid limits would be awsome
Sorry i've no time to test that with you guys but would appreciate results
Best Regards
You dont need modif ffs or other just use pfs file to modif what you want and in real time direct phone flash pfs file and not have write protect problem
Just says Thank
Example file : dont give attention of boot img cause i dont take time to do it in 800x480 but its 400x240 then its make bug but with pfs file you can upload anything you want to change !!!
Good hack !!!
Maybe with this you can create dual boot or i dont know what a pro smoker can do, you can also try to put her rc2 or rc1 directory i dont try it !!!
Download example, in this one you can see SystemFS and Registry directory, off course you can put her all directory you want to flash pfs, using trix to modified or wave remaker more faster :
https://rapidshare.com/files/809973956/Circle.pfs
An idea its like you can make your one firmware with personal Widget installed and other idea welcome....Just take file registry and Widget folder on phone and put it on PFS
i can not open new thread
i went to parser an xml file with structure like this.

How to make our own build

Ok maybe it's not the good part of the forum to ask... anyway I searched but can't find any info (xda and google). I'm sure it exist... but to noob to find.
I would like to try making my own build.
I found some tuto, setup Ubuntu in VMware, setup everything...
So I made my first build... a pure CM7 RC2 and it's working after flash on my DHD.
Great... but spending one day to make something I can download...
So now I want to play with sources in order to "fine tune" my CM7.
Where I can find tuto to do this?
I would like to start easy: remove unneeded app, modify some config files (build.prop and gps.conf), themed a little...
Thanks in advance for your help.
all you need to know is in here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=837781
ok... my question has to go to Q&A... but this was not my initial question
So if some one can provide some usefull links.
Thanks in advance.
might be me, but i am failing to recognize the actual question here.
you want to remove apps, delete them. you want to edit [somefile], get your favorite text editor and edit [somefile]. you want to make themes, well i think you can work out the scheme here...
Yep I agree, it's maybe not very clear.
I manage to make a build from the CM7 repo. Honestly, I setup the system but don't understand how the ROM is made from all the files.
I would like to adapt the sources in order to build just what I really use in the ROM. I think that when an app is added from source additional things come with it (parts needed by the app only). If you remove the app from the ROM zip these things are not.
What I need is too understand the structure of the folders and files to leave only what I need + my setting, app...
I also need to understand how building a ROM from files from the repo dir but with "modified" parts from a local dir (to mix for example part of two ROM).
Of course I will not ask all my question here so I would like some links to guides or web sites where I can find some info.
Maybe an example:
Today, when a new build is available, I prefer to backup only my PIM data and wipe all reinstall fresh ROM.
Then I setup up the files (gps.conf & build.prop).
Install my apps (remove some)
restore my data.
I would like to have the ability to follow the updates via repo.
Have all the "tuning" on my HDD, apps, conf files...
update some config on my PC
Then build my own ROM directly.
So I flash, restore my data and voila.

"crap list" --- files wished to remove

Can we please collect/post files, which are "useless" and how to remove?
Example.
JAVA Mildets are useless because only Demos...
Important things:
Firmware Version: XXKK5
Stored in path/folder: AppEx\SysDefault\Java\Games
Delete possible in handset... not all.
Left Edge and Parachute Panic...
I think I'll remove them from:
CSC_S8500_Open_Europe_Common_OXAKK5.csc
And few more...
I hope you understand what I wish.
Thanx in advance.
Best Regards
AppEx\SysDefault\Java\Games
Tried but failed in XPJK1...also how do u edit csc...In trix when I dumped csc those folders where not present and in Wave remaker we can only dumb files r8(correct me if I am wrong)
So I dumped using wave remaker and then saved using trix...but everthing I removed was present and the font I added was not present...So I redumped the modified csc using wave remaker and the files wherent present but the font was there. I guess its stored in some other location also
Useless images : \SystemFS\Media\Images (Keep Wallpaper 1 & 2)
Useless pdf file : \SystemFS\Media\Others (Don't try to open "open source licences" in settings menu because phone will reboot)
Useless Ringtones : \SystemFS\Media\Sounds\Alert tones & \SystemFS\Media\Sounds\Ringtones (Keep Samsung tune.mp3 , Cloud.wav , Good morning.wav)
Using Wave Remaker / Trix
From FFS file
The files i said keep them because it was tested by flashing and their absence made phone reboot
This is my list...I keep anymore.mp3 file in addition to previous stuff because i like it and use it as a ringtone
Best Regards

AllShare is DLNA samsung implementation
You can stream video audio pics from to,through DLNA enabled devices.
And it works fine.
Samsung has own Pc version of DLNA server but it's not best.
Best which i found is servioo
http://www.serviio.org/ works like a charm
Phone enables wifi when you start AllShare becouse DLNA devices must be in same network

For now, perhaps I will remember something else later lol
Kona.exe aka Samsung Apps... has several Languages and Resolutions...
Code:
ScreenDensity-Low
ScreenDensity-Middle
.xml (language Text)
If you kick unneeded stuff... then around 3 MB less.
Same for the other Apps... I don't need all *.xml language files...

Edit :
Code:
AppPkgUninstall /Osp/Applications/[B]kfdoqs63to[/B]
This can remove ChatON... for instance.
Use QuB for instance to send this Command.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=12436452&postcount=1
In this kind you can remove Apps from Osp folder... if trouble or you don't like them...

Edit 1.
Short tested on XXLA1... with success:
ChatON
AppPkgUninstall /Osp/Applications/kfdoqs63to
Music HUB
AppPkgUninstall /Osp/Applications/1xd3tvpnc5
Caster
AppPkgUninstall /Osp/Applications/577yx64nrt

AppPkgUninstall /Osp/Applications/5zdx8bkb6w
GTALK
AppPkgUninstall /Osp/Applications/8c59h50loa
MSN
AppPkgUninstall /Osp/Applications/760n3w3202
Nearly all Apps from Osp folder can be removed by this Command...
Only Kona + BDAgent left
Code:
36cbr89p8t\Bin\BDAgent.exe
8d7uw8z551\Bin\Kona.exe
Maybe then with Account trouble... as this seems additional Account App
Code:
rcz4775900\Bin\Bori.exe
I can remove this complete or not install it before (removed from FW), and I can still access Samsung Account.
Remember to delete "Emergency Backup" from AppEx\Sys\SamsungAccount.
Other Accounts not tested...
But maybe this is the funny country check. As this App will also updated if Kona + BDAgent is forced to update...
Best Regards
ScreenDensity-Low
or 240xbla, HVGA etc..
Few folders are for multi Resolution... but we have only 480x800 WVGA on S8500/S8530/S8600...
So few folders can removed complete...
Best Regards
Yes, it is safe to delete most of the excess resolution folders.
It is also safe to delete all the unneeded language xml files in the apps res folders.
The problem here is that these deleted files and folders are all re-installed during updates (like Samsung Apps update).
So makes no much sense in deleting them (except you have a firmware with all the apps already updated).
The only exception here is the 0rq06e23py (SevenIM) folder.

HELP PLS

Hello,
I need help.
Now I'm using 'S8500XXKK7.'
I'm trying to edit this firmware & I almost done it. Now, I want to add Facebook & Twitter (not in java) on the main menu screen. Anyone can give me these files to me & tell me how to add these files in firmware (CSC or FFS or ShpApp). I downloaded LEDFlashlite from the Samsung Apps. My default storage location is Memory Card & I see the installed files. But, I don't know how to add this files in firmware.
And I need to change the keyboard language to English (in system file, not in phone).
You can read that Facebook & Twitter apps for bada 2.0 are available for download for Wave I/II/III
The Link : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1407806
So you can get them on S8500XXKK7 from Samsung Apps
Best Regards

[Q] How to customize a Bada FW?

I want to start doing some FW modifications of my own, but I have some trouble finding a good place to start. Even with using the search function . Maybe someone can point me to some good links to get started?
Here's what I want to be able to do:
Customize FW settings (such as percentual battery display)
Move preinstalled apps from one FW to another
Remove apps from FWs (such as Caster or Music Hub)
Remove CSCs, languages, keyboards
Hack the Firmware to identify as Wave 3
Make stuff like Caster or Music Hub uninstallable
Basically, what I want to do is to make a customized FW that will have a lot of application memory free and will therefore be able to play any game (such as Asphalt 6, Tintin). I'm thinking about leaving only those CSCs/languages/keyboards in that a specific region needs and, maybe, provide special files for multiple regions.
Wave_Remaker is good and easier Tool for "Starter"...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1028714
Knowledge in open files in Text or better in HEX Editor is not bad.
Also Tool TriX is very powerfull.
Best Regards
Thank you!
I already have the Wave Remaker, can Trix do anything that Wave Remaker can't? Using Hex- and Text-Editors is also no problem at all. I'm a software-developer .
But, these are only the tools I need. I'm in search for descriptions and tutorials on how to do the stuff that I asked for.
Infos are spread over whole forum...
Depend what you exactly want...
Yes, I have read your first post...
Main difference...
Type A
Changes/Mods AFTER Firmwareupdate...
Few Things can be changed with sTune or TkFileExplorer...
Copy and Paste single files...
Risk that files are secured or write protected or changes take no effect...
Dataloss possible.
Depend on Firmware...
Type B.
Changes BEFORE Firmwareupdate...
Highest chance for successfully mod, but also possible to fail...
Few features from Trix in Wave_Remaker... but not all... its not 1:1 same...
Depend what you want...
Move preinstalled apps from one FW to another
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Maybe start with this.
Write exact your idea, or make it...
Then better support... possible.
Otherwise use search.
Best Regards
