Re: [Dev Tools] How to create mods
 

I dont care if Santa Clause made the mod... lol. I was pulling my hair out for days! lol


I'll show you what I was modding and we can all call me a newb:

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=780614

I was trying my butt off to do that mod but it just wasnt working out. First the .jar file didint contain the smali but I found the smali in SySUI.

I made his changes and it just didint do anything. Back and forth, round and round I made the changes and tried signing, unsigning, etc etc etc....

Wasnt even hitting the right strings, lol!

I got some other goodies fro your ROM if you havent made them yet.. I will PM You.

Re: [Dev Tools] How to create mods
 

I'm gonna add this to the OP for assembling/disassembling .jar files.

smali - An assembler/disassembler for Android's dex format - Google Project Hosting


Using Smali/Baksmali, I will use framework.jar as the example:

-open deodexed framework.jar w/ 7zip, extract classes.dex

-copy classes.dex to your Baksmali folder

-decompile classes.dex (java -jar baksmali.jar classes.dex)

-make your smali changes in the Out folder

-copy out folder to Smali dir

-compile classes.dex (java -jar smali.jar -o classes.dex out/)

-copy the new classes.dex to framework.jar

Thanks for the post! How ever decompile the settings.apk and only got smali not res any idea wat I did wrong??..

Re: [Dev Tools] How to create mods
 

Did you use APKTOOL ? Works like a champ you need to install

com.htc.resources.apk
framework-res.apk

Should work fine..

Re: [Dev Tools] How to create mods
 

what version of apktool are u using? 1.4.3 is the latest. Also, like reaper said, u need to copy com.htc.resources.apk & framework-res.apk to the apktool folder then run these cmds:

apktool if com.htc.resources.apk

apktool if framework-res.apk


now run the decompile cmd...
