you don't use apk files for java. .jar files are what you want.

Install through from pc through activesync
and how do i do that, I can't run it from activesync since it is not a cab file, it is zip or if i unzip it just a folder with setup files which I cannot run from activesync.

Hi:
If it is a .exe file, you need to hook up phone through active sync, THEN run program on you PC, not on phone. That will install it on your phone.
wow cool, finally I got it, didn't think it would make sense to run it on my pc then install on phone but it worked, thank you sir for the advice, greatly needed.

There's a whole lot of "PacMan" and very little "Ms." in that file.

oh wow i completely forgot to mention that ... heres a generic one that should work for all themes ... so in your theme.zip you should have an app folder and a framework folder since those are the folders that the script will copy over

Hero keyboard in Eclair

Hi,
is it possible to add the Hero keyboard to Eclair ROMs? If so, how?
I greet all the fans ROMs Eclair
This is the wrong section, just make sure you post in the correct section next time.
But this is what you need:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=567294&highlight=HTC_IME
Install it like a regular app, then go to settings and change the keyboard to Touch Input.
Thanks and sorry for wrong section:/
No worries! Enjoy your Eclair

how do you read xml files in the apk files, help???

Hi Everyone
I feel like an idiot asking this question but how can what can I use to read the xml files that are in the apk files? Every time I double click on them and IE opens I get an error. I then downloaded an xml editor and when I tried to open it in there I also got an error.
Right click on the file, click open with and choose notepad to view its raw formating. if you want a cleaner look use word to view the XML file. Be careful not to save it in word though it can garble the file. you will just have to play with it to see what works for you.
IE definitely is not a good way to view and edit XML files.

Use smali and backsmali. If you download this little toolkit from here you should be able to edit them in notepad++. I forgot how to use them but its pretty easy.
Maybe I'm wrong--been so long since I've messed with this stuff

The best way is to use brut.all's apktool(http://code.google.com/p/android-apktool/) it does all the difficult work for you.

Woohoo I should tag the link and put it in my sig. That is if I still have room. Lol
XML files are compiled to binary form when app is built. This is why you can't open them.
AFAIK my apktool is only one tool, which decompiles XMLs fully and gives you possibility to compile them back. There is also AXMLPrinter tool, but it doesn't decompile all data and it's used mainly to help with hex editing, cause it can't compile file back.
smali/baksmali doesn't have anything to do with XML files.

Dude I love ur apktool. Did u see the axmlprinter.bat file that dec put in his resources page. It works great with axmlprinter2 file. It takes away all the typing in the cmd and does it for u and shows u the readable file in its own small window. A suggestion...maybe adding that to ur apktool would be a great addon

Yeah, I know, sorry for that.
I just like to explain my point of view very precisely to avoid misunderstanding. And I ain't English speaker, so it takes me some time to describe it. I could do just two things to not waste time on repeating myself: give a link or give a link and place a quotation beneath it ;-) Maybe second option is better

You can also view and edit binary xml's in root explorer, as long as they haven't been hex edited. Skews up the formatting some how.

Sorry, Im noob.
What is adb? Where I can download to use it?
My DHD not rooted.
Edit: I Just google about it "Android Debug Bridge". Its look like too complicated to me. Is there any more easy way which no need for me to root etc.
Just asking. Anyway I hit thanks button to reidar.ostrem for the help.

Don't think it's possible then, you need root and unlocked security on the dhd to be able to write to system/app sorry.

I use Polaris Office for editing files and QuickofficeHD as PDF viewer.
As far as I have experienced it QuickofficeHD is by far the fastest App to open and render PDFs.
Its not on the market but someone on this board linked to it... let me search for it...

...found it:

Do you mind to share how to "push" it by using ADB? Or maybe you can share with me any link to make this happened? I am on rooted Motorola Atrix 4G (AT&T) model.
Thanks
Just realized that Motorola Atrix 4G is still on Android version 2.2.2 and this Polaris Office is only support those gadget which is on (min.) version 3.0 and above...hopefully Atrix 4G will have OTA on version 3.0 soon...
tried on my Wildfire. Force closed whatever I tried to open.
I have a O2X with CM7 rom. Tried to push polaris office, but force closes when opening any excel file. Any ideas?
