So I like the phone dialer from the froyo ROM by [email protected] since they took out the hold button (which I'm always pressing). I'd like to use that phone dialer on the Chromatic ROM I'm using now.
I've extracted the Phone.apk from the [email protected] ROM, but when I look at the /system/app in Droid Explorer, I don't see a Phone.apk but I do see a Dialer.apk. Is this the same as Phone.apk?
Can I just rename the Phone.apk from [email protected]'s to Dialer.apk and drop it in the /system/app?
If not, what do I need to do?
TIA.
Never mind. Figured it out.

Does anyone have a copy of the unmodified Mms.apk that will work with cyanogen 4.1999? The one I have on CM is dropping picture messages, and I strongly believe it has to do with the modified Mms.apk specifically the spoof agent. So could someone upload a copy of the Mms.apk unmodified?
thats odd. for me it was the opposite, the defualt one sucked and the modified one helped bigtime. but i think if you go download the htc recovery image of 1.6 or if you can just find any official rom/ota. go into the system/apps and it should be there
Hiya peeps,
I'm making my morph theme, bu i'm running into issue's with the thm file. I have 7 parts I want to morph. the file name of the folder is exactly the same as the thm file. And this is the content of my thm file:
Any ROM
Any ROM
AdvancedLauncher.apk
/system/app/
Browser.apk
/system/app/
Camera.apk
/system/app/
Launcher.cpy
/system/app/
Music.apk
/system/app/
Settings.apk
/system/app/
framework-res.apk
/system/framework/
Then when I go into metamorph 1.7 all I see is the top 3, advanced launcher, camera and browser.
LINK TO THEME FILE
Can somebody tell what I'm doing wrong????
Try doing the copying first (i.e. place anything with .cpy at the top of the list)
ThnQ for replying. I already got that part working. Only now I'm running into another issue. everytime I apply my theme to my G1 my market and my metamorph, and my messing app stop working even tried fix all apk issue's in recovery. No effect.
Could this be because I maybe screwed up the size of a couple images ?
Currently running Super D 1.8 after trying out a few of the Eclair ROMs (each shows promise but they're a little buggy at present). One thing I liked about Eclair is the Settings menu. I tried adb pushing both Settings.apk and SettingsProvider.apk into /system/app but it's still the same old settings menu. How can I change it?

Its not possible since the 2.1 settings.apk requires 2.1 framework.
Dammit...
Oh well. Thanks for the answer.

How about making a update.zip for the Settings.apk and SettingsProvider.apk?
For Decompiling & Compiling System files you have to decompile the file where the file is dependent on which the application will be Sttings Framework file from your phone!

After that, using any RootManager insert a file in the system directory and restart the phone!
I'm using a Samsung Captivate unlocked on the Tmobile US network.
Incoming MMS get resize, I know Tmobile does this cause it's not a phone they recognized. Everytime I get an unlock phone this happen and I know I need to change the user agent to a phone they recognized.
I saw a few post on how to do it but it's for other phones, not sure if those fix will work for the Captivate. Anyone with a Captivate on TMOUS able to fix this problem yet?
Thank you
Bump, anyone?
Anyone know how to edit the user agent in the hex file?
trying to change it to the Nokia N95 user agent
NokiaN95/11.0.026; Series60/3.1 Profile/MIDP-2.0 Configuration/CLDC-1.1
I'm able to pull up the MMS config and see the user agent string but not sure what to do after that
Can anyone at tell me what to change in the picture?
Dude, I gave you an Mms.apk that has exactly what you're looking for on the other thread you posted about this. Take the apk I gave you and move it into system/app or just flash my ROM.

I did take your mms.apk from the other thread and try it.
It did not work. Maybe I'm installing it wrong.
Is ADB the only method to push it to the phone?
I'm transfering it to my SD card, copy it and using Root Explorer paste it into
system/app but when I go to open the application, the MESSAGING icon is not there.
What ROM are you using?
Thanks for your time
Can someone tel me if I'm doing this right.
-Using Root Explorer extract a copy of Mms.apk from phone
-rename Mms.apk to Mms.zip
-WinRar extract the MMS.zip
-locate the mms_config.xml
-using hex editor changed the UA string (see picture).
-rezipped mms folder and change name to Mms.zip to Mms.apk
-put back into system/app
-reboot phone but the Messaging icon disappeared.
Also after editing mms_config.xml and save, there's an extra file
call mms_config.xml.bak, leave that file alone or what to do with it?
Thank you to anyone that can give me some help
Anyone? A little help?
I am on a rooted 2.2 captivate but one thing really bugs me and that is the sms messages in the phone log. I know that on some custom ROM's the developer hs removed them. Cognition comes to mind. But without flashing the whole ROM is there a way to get just that functionality? Like say just replacing the phone.apk?
I have done some searching but have been spectacularly unsuccessful. Thanks for any guidance.
Yes you can just replace the apk however it's not the phone.apk it's the logproviders.apk, grab that from a rom and drop it into /system/app on the phone then reboot.

Do I need to do anything about the.odex file? I don't see one in the ROM's I've checked.
You won't find one in the rom its more than likely been deodexed, umm I think you just leave the odex file there.
Rename the original with a .bak at the end before you paste the new one in that way if it doesn't work yo usage a backup of the original.

I copied in a logprovider file from Cognition... verified that the new file is there. But sadly it looks and acts the same as the old one.
I rebooted as well. Thoughts?
