source code, porting to other htc devices:
due to the nature of the hack (patching a htc-modified, closed source framework lib) there is no "source code" for it
obviously, i also can't provide a smali patch applicable for any framework version / htc device
for reference, i've attached the smali patch for my own device/setup
it doesn't take a great deal to understand it, porting should be relatively straightforward. you should also take into account that string/icon resource ids may vary between different framework versions, and that some versions don't support com.android.internal.app.ShutdownThread.reboot()

Useful reading but there are other how to guides on how to do it just got to the final step on one of them and the last file I had to edit is not on the legend well it is but instead of 1 file it has been split into 10 different files and the coding is written differently.

[DEV][HOW-TO] Enable CRT-OFF and CRT-ON in S3 Stock ROMs

Use everything here on your own risk and hit THANKS BUTTON if you like my work!
General Information:
As you propably know, till now there is no CRT-off MOD out for the S3. This is because only changing the value of config_animateScreenLights from true to false in framework-res.apk is not working anymore!
Together with Tungstwenty and rovo89 we faced out, that the problem are some missing commands in the /system/framework/services.jar
After comparing files from S2 and S3 Tungstwenty could help me to find the right position to edit files and with a litte bit of testing we found the right commands to enable the CRT-off-effect!

Tungstwenty said:
Let me clarify what is required in order to have the CRT effects working:
A patched library that properly (i.e. no flicker, etc.) provides the effects --> see attached flashable zip's or use Tweakbox
Code changes on the ROM in order to properly trigger the effect(s), which the library will then respond to those triggers --> look at the how-to or use Tweakbox
Item no. 1 is the one that I worked on and for which a fully working library was now provided.
The 2nd part can be done in 2 different ways - either patching the S3's ROM to properly enable the CRT-On and/or CRT-Off effects, OR do some hooking on the existing methods in the ROM and without changing that code, override the flags (i.e., the way Tweakbox does it).
It's this 2nd aspect that you guys need to address somehow. I worked with rovo89 on Tweakbox and not only does it bundle with the library, it also does the code changes in memory to make it work (topic no. 2).
But sphinx02 had already provided that, initially, after some discussion on what needed to be patched on the S3 ROM.
So, in order to have it working you have 2 ways:
Either use Tweakbox and make use of its configuration options to enable only CRT-Off, only CRT-On, or whatever you fancy.
Ask for someone (such as sphinx02) that has an S3, to keep up with existing ROMs (it will need to be changed separately for every one), and provide patched apk's on top of the existing ones so that it enables the effect triggers I mentioned. This will also need to take into account whether you prefer both effects on, only CRT-Off, etc.
I hope this is a bit more clear now, if not just let me know.

HOW-TO make the Code Changes:
This is what have to be done:
First of all decompile classes of services.jar (I won't provide any information to this, there are many tutorials out there how to use the smali tools!)
Than in com/android/server/PowerManagerService.smali we have to make the method nativeStartSurfaceFlingerAnimation(I)V callable from inner classes. To do that, we have to add the following after the last access$XXXX method:
Code:
.method static synthetic access$9000(Lcom/android/server/PowerManagerService;I)V
.registers 2
.parameter "x0"
.parameter "x1"
.prologue
.line 110
invoke-direct {p0, p1}, Lcom/android/server/PowerManagerService;->nativeStartSurfaceFlingerAnimation(I)V
return-void
.end method
Than we have to add some commands to the file com/android/server/PowerManagerService$BrightnessState.smali to trigger the CRT-off-effect. For that add the red part between :cond_38 and iget-object v4, p0, Lcom/a.... like this (its around line 400 in code):
Code:
.line 2679
.restart local v3 #turningOff:Z
:cond_38
[COLOR="Red"] iget-object v4, p0, Lcom/android/server/PowerManagerService$BrightnessState;->this$0:Lcom/android/server/PowerManagerService;
const/16 v3, 0x11 # CRT-On and CRT-Off
#calls: Lcom/android/server/PowerManagerService;->nativeStartSurfaceFlingerAnimation(I)
invoke-static {v4, v3}, Lcom/android/server/PowerManagerService;->access$9000(Lcom/android/server/PowerManagerService;I)V[/COLOR]
iget-object v4, p0, Lcom/android/server/PowerManagerService$BrightnessState;->this$0:Lcom/android/server/PowerManagerService;
#getter for: Lcom/android/server/PowerManagerService;->mScreenBrightness:Lcom/android/server/PowerManagerService$BrightnessState;
invoke-static {v4}, Lcom/android/server/PowerManagerService;->access$6000(Lcom/android/server/PowerManagerService;)Lcom/android/server/PowerManagerService$BrightnessState;
move-result-object v4
If you want to have only CRT-OFF, you can replace
Code:
const/16 v3, 0x11 # CRT-On and CRT-Off
with this:
Code:
const/16 v3, 0x10 # CRT-Off only
Finally recompile the file, put it on your phone and you can see the CRT-Off effect on your S3!

Hi,
I worked on the porting of the patch to S3 and despite not having one myself, I'm pretty confident that the binary rovo89 and myself included in the latest Tweakbox should work on an S3.
Could any of you guys try it out?
What to do:
Install the newest Xposed framework from here. Open the Installer app, press Install/Update and reboot.
Install the Tweakbox mod from here. Open it and enable the CRT effects in the appropriate section. You can also enable any other tweaks you like, to check if they also work for the S3 (most of them should)
Go back to the Xposed Installer app, activate the Tweakbox mod (2nd tab), then in the libraries section select "libsurfaceflinger.so" and use the I9300 version. Tick the "Replace in test-mode only" option and back in the 1st tab do a soft / test reboot.
If everything goes well and the effects work as expected, you can go back to the installer app and untick "test-mode only" so the lib is overridden on every boot.
Note that except for the app_process system file which is installed by the framework (creating a backup file, and which should have no practical effects until any mods are enabled later), all other replacements such as the surfaceflinger lib do not change anything in /system but are rather performed by loading the files from an alternate path.
I'd appreciate your feed back especially for the CRT effect, but also the other existing Tweakbox options.
Thanks!

Or use in addition to the changes in services.jar the attached flashable zip's to overwrite libsurfaceflinger.so with the corrected one by Tungstwenty or me, XXAL for (XXALE8,XXALF2,XXALF6) and XXBL for (XXBLFB,XXBLG1,...)

Notes:
- This is a development thread so please discuss only things that interest for further development
- First part of the development has been discussed in this Thread of S2-forums
- As on the S2 after the CRT-off-effect sometimes the screen flickers --> fixed by Tungstwenty
- For some reason, it works without setting config_animateScreenLights from true to false in framework-res.apk
- I hope Tungstwenty and rovo89 can help us again to edit the libsurfaceflinger.so to avoid that it flickers after the CRT-off-effect

The flicker issue and the lack of CRT-On effect are *exactly* the same issues that are present on the S2 lib as well.
It has been fixed there, but changing ARM code without the sources is a very tedious process and that requires a fair amount of testing till it eventually works.
Without having access to an S3 it's very hard to do this or even explain what needs to be done
On top of that, I have other pending stuff I need to work on so you shouldn't expect a fix very soon, sorry.

Ok, I see the problematic.. But perhaps you can give me the original and the modified files from the s2 so I can compare the 2 files and perhaps see by myself what is changed! And as I never changed anything in .so files perhaps you can tell me additionally how you have edited them!
I'm willing to try around again and to play with bytecode or so on, but I think I need a little input from you!
You mentioned the tool objdump, so I think I have to become familiar with this tool, am I right?

Ok then, I'll give you the starting pointers so you can have a look at what lies ahead
The S2 patched file with ON and OFF both working correctly, with no flickers, is in this post.
The S2 original file is attached here.
Do a binary compare to see the changed bytes and their offsets.
To have a look at the code, you need to have the NDK installed.
Run "objdump -x libsurfaceflinger.so" to see the decompiled ARM code.
And have fun trying to understand that

Ok, thank you for that.. I dont know at this point if I ever will have success with it but I will give it a try as I have the time to! Thank you very much again Tungstwenty for your tips/advice!
While trying around a little bit and thinking about the problem, I had the following idea:
Is it not possible to build an own, additional library file with the crt-off functions? Sources for that are out there! Just copy together and build an .so file. Than in the Java-Code we are including this new native code and simply calling the function from this new / additional lib-file? What do you think about that?
Looks like someone needs to do this again...

I don't think that's a viable option. rovo already tried that with existing sources, I think, and the resulting library did not work on sammy's rom.
As for creating a separate library with only those functions, I also don't think that's possible as everything related with screen rendering (state, buffers, etc.) is on this lib and therefore a separate one would not have any of that info.

Yes. If everything is working as I expect, the new things vs your current situation are:
- No more flickering issues when CRT-Off
- Now also includes CRT-On
- Can detect device orientation and do a "vertical" CRT effect instead of horizontal
All these are optional and can be turned on/off in the Tweakbox preferences.
I tried.
CRT OFF has the same problem, CRT On is not visible, but I had to place also a jar file?

I must add that I'm on checkromevo hd and I've already inserted a mod to see crt off, I don't know if this can help.

Mmm, did you follow the steps I mentioned before, i.e. enabling the lib replacement in test mode and doing a soft reboot?
You should end up with a library on /vendor/lib (ramfs) and it should get loaded on startup instead of the one in /system/lib. Can you check with a file browser if the file under /vendor/lib does exist?
Also, could you open a terminal, run "set" and check if LD_LIBRARY_PATH is "/vendor/lib:/system/lib", as in S2?

Can you open the Xposed Installer app and post a screenshot of each of the 3 tabs? "Framework", "Modules" and "Libraries" (in this last one, scroll to the bottom to display the "libsurfaceflinger.so" entry so it's visible in the picture)
Can you send me the modded libsurfaceflinger.so so I can test it directly?
Maybe a downloadlink via pm...
I have sphinx mod for CRT, so If I deselect CRT off on tweakbox, it is shown the same.

Your lib settings are ok, so if you do a soft reboot (pressing the button on the app), it should come back with a libsurfaceflinger.so file in /vendor/lib. It's won't happen, though, if you do a "normal" reboot.
It isn't happening to you? Could it be that the soft reboot tries to load the new lib, fails, and immediately does a hard/normal reboot - did you notice anything that could point to this?

[Q]Building From Source (Single Modules / Bare Minimum Version)

My Question to the Dev's is is there a Guide on How to Build Single APP Packages eg Calculator from Source Without building the entire android from Source is possible to build eg libjpeg from source as a single module.
i have tried the mmm command all it did was spit out errors you fix one get ten more and so on
I also tried using NDK by inserting the open source libs into a jni folder and modifying Android.mk to look similar to the sample jni resulted in errors this is the only Guide i can't find as there many on building entire android but sometime one only needs specific modules and not entire build.
If above not possible is there a bare minimum version where it only builds android core frameworks and like one lib /app ?
i did not try this .
u can download the package like if u want trebucket launcher then download full android_packages_apps_trebuckhet.
recompile it to get the trebucket apk
once againg i did not try this out

Mmm won't help as it needs to link against other parts of the system. That's why you need to do a full build before you can mmm
In theory you can take the app and try to import it into eclipse, and regard it just as an app project.

Good work Hazou !
I will give you some idea. And why don't you use JB libs ?
1. Replace mediaserver by ICS one
2. Replace /system/lib/hw/audio.primary.smi.so by CyanogenMod file
3. There is a problem with libc.so, so just try to replace this lib with ICS one....
4. Replace /system/lib/libat-manager.so (if exist) by CM one
Do these steps one by one and logcat for each step.

Ty, for the suggestions. Some i can already answer
1. We could try this, but then also the libaudioflinger needs replacing. And maybe another file.
2. Can try it, but most likely doesn't work. The stock cyanogenmod one doesn't have the right code the execute our soundcard. I found out that the audio_policy.smi.so is the stock one with just small modifications.
3. Libc can't be switched. To many things depend on libc. And besides that, the code in libc were it goes wrong is the same one as my modified jb libc
4. libat-manager is a specific module for our device. we don't have the right sources to build it. But i can maybe replace it with the one from the 4.2.2 drop of the chineze version. But then it has some restrictions because off the chinese firewall.
Keep up the ideas. Maybe we get there someday

Thanks for answer.
1. Try to replace libaudioflinger.so, then provide a logcat please. It may need hex edit (and I can do it).
4. Yes try it because sound need this lib.
I think first answer is the best... If the rom allow logcat access after replacement.
Edit 1: my Razr I is broken but I would like to help
Edit 2: Sound is very hard to works on porting rom (even if it's not the same thing with CM), so perhaps it needs some others files to change
Edit 3: Try to replace these libs too, with the chineze version:
/system/lib/libamc.so
/system/lib/libevent-listener.so
And you need to add FM's lib because ICS libaudioflinger.so needs these files:

You don't need a screenshot, if this doesn't work yet. This is a thread to make the rom functional. Then it can be released to the regular users like us, who just want to use it regardless of the making process
You can go in every CM10.1-thread in this forum. I am sure that you will find enough screenshots of CM10.1. The rom for our xt890 doesn't have another look.
Or try this alpha-build on your own phone
And now for me I'll stop being of topic
Sorry for that to all the devs

Thanks for answer.
1. Try to replace libaudioflinger.so, then provide a logcat please. It may need hex edit (and I can do it).
4. Yes try it because sound need this lib.
I think first answer is the best... If the rom allow logcat access after replacement.
Edit 1: my Razr I is broken but I would like to help
Edit 2: Sound is very hard to works on porting rom (even if it's not the same thing with CM), so perhaps it needs some others files to change
Edit 3: Try to replace these libs too, with the chineze version:
/system/lib/libamc.so
/system/lib/libevent-listener.so
And you need to add FM's lib because ICS libaudioflinger.so needs these files:

So, i tested the methods u supposed.
first off, the roms doesn't need the fm module to work It's like the usb and hdmi audio modules that are expanding the audio functions, but aren't necessary for booting.
Than the rest, i found out that all the libamc, libevent*, libat-* etc. the files were we don't have the source from are the same as the stock jelly ones. So no need to change those. Like the other libs, mediaserver is the same as the one i compiled compared to the chinese 4.2.2 one.
For the libaudioflinger part, if i switch them, they won't boot up there service anymore. Why i doný know, but i have the feeling that the libaudioflinger won't solve the mystery.
Another thing i read from the logcat is that it crashes right at the moment the sound-card (medfieldaudio) aka 0x00000002 is called, after it is set that it can be used. So it seems to me that the alsa lib can't read the device properly. Somewhere allong the line a thing can't reach it or is giving the wrong data. But what....
The next thing i gonna try is making my own alsa module with tinyalsa implementation. To get only the sound working. FM and the audience driver won't work then. Great chance that it won't work, but you gotta try

Porting Guide

hi devs ...
i,m newbie in porting and want to port ubuntu touch for Galaxy S advance(GT-I9070)
i follow porting guide up to :
Enabling a new device
but in this step i got stuck
Cyanogenmod does not support my device officially but there is unofficial support for it.
my problem is don't understand how to do MANUAL step.
could anyone explain it for me?
note that i'm using ubuntu porting guide in ubuntu touch wiki ...
thanks in advance ...
anyone help me?
You may find a manifest file in the unofficial repository, a xml file, maybe.
According to guide, the project named kernal, device & vendor need to be added to the .repo/local_manifests/roomservice.xml, which does not exist, and you need to create yourself.
But I also saw some manifest files containing remove-project. Not sure if that should also be added to the roomservice.xml.

How can I (re)make an old obsolete app to work on the latest Android version?

Greetings to all. I am new to this forum and I have a question for you experts.
There is a very old and abandoned app that I used to like a lot. It is very simple (the size was just 99KB). It is simply creating a floating icon above other apps that initiates screenshots.
When I tried to install and use it on my OnePlus 5, I got the message that this application needs to be updated.
The thing is that there is no update available for this app because the developer for his own reasons abandoned the project.
Could this be because of the modified Android version my device is running? Or is it because the app is no longer compatible for the latest Android versions in general? (My old device was under 4.4 KitKat)
Is there a way to resolve this manually perhaps by decompiling , editing and recompiling the apk?
Is there a way to recreate the same apk to be compatible with the latest bunch of Android versions?
Is there perhaps a way to avoid all the hassle and "trick" the app thinking that everything is O.K.?
Since I am a complete and utter n00b, please explain to me.
I wish to thank you all in advance for your time and effort to answer to me.
The apps' source code needs to be updated.
Do you have a link to the apps' source code?
Would also help to know what app you're talking about.

I have the apk file if that helps. I tried to private message you but I was not able.
How can I provide the source to you?
The link to the actual apk file is here: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1zImcIf1lret_9XsCRawrj4FLPtbMGe7j
The app is creating a floating button/icon that allows to take screenshots of a specific (designated by the app and fixed) area of your screen. You can take multiple screenshots and evry single screenshot appears in tiny thumbnails on your screen, each one next to the other. All screenshots are getting erased automatically after a few seconds (don't recall how many, maybe 30 secs).
Yeah I have private messaging disabled. I prefer to do any communication on the forums.
As I mentioned, the source code needs to be updated. So if you post the source code I'd be willing to take a look.
No guarantees of course. Lots has changed in android over time. A lot of code has been deprecated. Don't know if it can be updated or if it's just better to start from scratch.

I really appreciate your willingness to assist.
As I mentioned I am not very android developing savvy, I have the classes-dex2jar.jar.src.zip here: ------------
Is this what you are looking for???
Let me know if I am mistaken.
I have also extracted all the contents of the apk using apk studio. Let me know if you need anything else.

I did a little digging by decompiling the app so that I can look at the strings.xml to get the official app name. With the app name I did some research and concluded that the developer did not make it open source. This means its original java code is not public and therefore the app cannot be updated.
You'll have to find another app in the play store similar to this one for your use.
