Java Games

How do you add/load Java games to the 8925 tilt which are (jar.) files? Also enabling the to launch through the Java Powered program installed on the device?
I've done it before but not lately and I don't have any .jar files on my phone so I can't test right this minute but try one of the following until it works
(1) Go into explorer and selected the .jar you want to install
(2) Start the Java program/utility and either
A - click on the .jar you want to install (if a list of .jar files is populated)
B - Click Menu > Install > Brower or Local Files
Someone else can chime in if you haven't figured it out yet

I just now ran through it to make sure I remembered what I used to know.
1. Make your self a folder (I call it Temp or the SD card).
2. Move the .jar and .jad (if you have a .jad) to that Temp folder.
3. Find the files with file exploere and tap the .jad or .jar if you have no .jad.
The game will "self install in to the Java folder in the \Windows\ root.
4. Some ROMs have no Java folder (.lnk) on the \Programs\ menu. A Java.lnk will be in the \Windows\ root though. Using Total Commander, copy the Java.lnk to the Windows\Start Menu\Programs\ folder.
Note: You don't need the .jad but it makes for more flawless installs. It contains the "road map" for the Java installer.
Hope that helps.
i tried it today and worked perfectly. dragged the .jar files and put it in my documents then i installed it and opened the java program and it was there.
but now im having a problem lol. i was going to remove one of my installed games, but then i accidentally uninstalled ALL my games, even the ones that came with the phone, i.e brain challenge, ms. pacman, solitare, etc.
i remember reading from somewhere that i can find all of those default games inside one .cab file. but i dont know where to find it in my phone.. or if someone has all the default games, do you mind sharing it with me.. thanks in advance!! need this asap lol

NoMoRootfs Build with Astro + Calendar (like the one in Jamezelle's Sense Hero)

I have tried out Jamezelle's SenseHero and Plemen's Donut. I like SenseHero because the calendar does not need to be associated with a Google account, but it does not have Astro or another file manager. Plemen's Donut has Astro but the calendar requires association with Google account. I would like to find a norootfs build with a calendar like SenseHero and with Astro or another file manager, so I can install apks as I do not have data. Sorry to Jamezelle and Plemen if I sounded critical of their builds as I like them both.
Thanks in advance.
You can install apks through adb without a file manager.
I know that I can install apks through adb, but I can't seem to get my computer to properly mount my Vogue. Also, is there possibly a way to install apks through terminal on the phone?

I think there may be a way if you copy them to /data/app, I'm sure someone else can chime in with the full answer.
So if I copy the apks to /data/apps/ would it install by itself?
If it does, would it install itself from a data/apps/ file path on the sdcard?

you really need to get adb working thats all i can say there is a really good tutorial in the dream forum
Well, everytime I try to install the drivers, it comes up with error 37, and microsoft says just keep on trying again and again until it works which is probably unlikely since I've tried it about 10 times already.
btw Jamezelle cokeman 0.41 caused all the trouble and cokeman 2.31 fixed the problem and how much longer will it be until you can make your SenseHero build norootfs?
androidinstall.tar is just a single packaged file of everything that gets installed
All done on your PC:
1) unpackage/unzip it on your computer w/ 7zip or your compression favorite app
2) navigate to "system\app"
3) drag whatever apk's you want to have installed in there
4) using 7zip, make a tar file and name it androidinstall.tar
The above process can also be used with the androidupdate.tar file
androidinstall.tar and androidupdate.tar must have the same directory structure and file locations as the Android build you are trying to update/install or bad things may happen.
Is it possible to use jamezelle's sensehero build, and then make an androidupdate file with astro in it to get astro and the calendar (without using adb)

Does anyone know if the calendar in vilord's tattoo requires an associated Google account?

I don't know about vilord's, but myn's Donut does (although, you can always export it and then import it via some app from marketplace.)
I finally got adb to work!
Thanks for everyone's help!

Framework-res where?

hello
I just installed froyo 2.2 and I want to do some mod for framework and twframework. However, all I can find in root dir is twframework-res.apk but I don't see any Framework-res.apk
Any idea where I can find it?
thanks
They should be in /system/framework I believe..
a) open the files with WinRAR (don't extract them, just drop new files in the right places and then close, it will automatically save)
or
b) extract the files with WinRar or something similar, modify what you need, then find a program that will repackage apk's for you, I know theres one floating around on the forums somewhere but not sure where to be honest.
hey thanks for helping. I found it using the Root Manager but I don't why I can't find it using Droid Explorer. The Program I will use is call APK manager.

trouble re-installing system apps.

im currently on phoenix 4.5 and was missing the unified inbox and program monitor widget from rogers 2.2 so i opened up my stock flash and took out the files for:
seven.apk, unifiedInbox.apk +.odex and SamsungWidget_ProgramMonitor.apk +.odex
I tried mounting as R/W and dropped them in System/apps then tried installing...
only the first program installed
"Application not installed"
I dont think its a coinsidence that the ones with .odex files didnt install.
Looked up odex... then Deodexing....
Custom roms are DEODEXED...
deodexing isnt as easy as dropping the odex file into the zip and renaming apk.. is it? because that didnt work either...
ok how can i intall these? what am i missing?
really? no suggestions yet?
deodex the programs, drop into system/app, reboot. No need to install system apps.
Sent from my Craptivate with the leaky rom
what is the proper way to deodex the apps?
i tried rename .apk as .zip
drop in the odex files with windows explorer
rename back to .apk
is there something i missed? anytime i try to repackage an app it wont install.
I tried replaceing the default icons in LauncherPro once before. didnt work either.
am i supposed to zip with a certain program? no compression?
i cant seem to find any instructions on how to do this without digging through hours of app programming first.

thanks for the link, but i was looking for information "without learning programming first"
the link you posted assumes the reader has a working knowlege of programming. I think i can work most of it out but it explains "what to tell it to do" but rather unclear "what it will do" or what you need.
it mentions pointing the script to the .odex file, but it never mentions needing an apk or outputting a deodexed apk. Or is that not what it does?? the help is written as though you know what you are doing but dont know how to use his script..
i think it wants me to...
so to use it i need the baksmali and its script.
run them and point them to the apk and odex with the proper command.
then i will output a deodexed apk?
i dont want to ask but..
can someone do it for me?
files attaced.....
UnifiedInbox deodexed, installed on Cognition 3.04 working.

an XML file that you're referring to is an existing file in the cab file. You do not need to extract the contents of the file cab. Just copy it to your device and click on one. Cab will install everything, including settings in the xml.
Thankyou, i already find that by myself, but i hit ''thanks button'' anyways
