Hi All,
I'm a super noob in app development and am not a programmer. I want to make my own soundboard and share it on the market so my friends with android phones can dl it. I'm using the steps in http://www.myandroidsoundboard.com/
and everything works great and I have been able to make my own fully working .apk's (woohoo) but when I upload it to the market, it gives me this error:
The package name of your apk (com.soundboard) is the same as the package name of another developer's application. Choose a new package name.
so how do i change the package name? I searched and most results come up for people starting from scratch but not for people using templates already written.
any help would be greatly appreciated.
thanks
1) find the package "com.soundboard" in the 'package explorer' pane.
2) right click on the package name, choose refactor->rename
3) type in a new package name, ex: com.agentkalaw, make sure the checkbox 'update references' is checked.
4) press ok, let eclipse make the change for you.
If there are any references to the old package name in \AndroidManifest.xml you will have to change those manually.
wow! thanks a lot britoso.
any tips on how i can change references in \androidmanifest.xml ?
i only get one error now (so close!) but i can't figure it out. I get
"class com.soundboard.soundboard does not exist" this is in the android:label="@string/app_name">
thanks again!

THe xml will have to be edited manually, simply replace com.soundboard by com.agentkalaw
For those of you who have a need for the URLs of new Chromecast updates without actually updating your device, you can manually perform a checkin by POSTing the following XML to https://tools.google.com/service/update2 (make sure to set Content-Type to text/xml):
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<o:gupdate xmlns:o="http://www.google.com/update2/request" version="GoogleTvEureka-0.1.0.0" updaterversion="GoogleTvEureka-0.1.0.0" protocol="2.0" ismachine="1">
<o:os version="3.0.8" platform="Linux" sp=""></o:os>
<o:app appid="{45ab3f62-be86-44be-9799-faa6a1229396}" version="12940" lang="en-US" track="stable-channel" board="eureka-b3"
hardware_class="">
<o:updatecheck targetversionprefix=""></o:updatecheck>
</o:app>
</o:gupdate>
The fields are pretty self-explanatory. If you use Linux, you can save the XML to a file called update2.req and make the request using the command
Code:
curl -s https://tools.google.com/service/update2 -d [PLAIN]@update2.req[/PLAIN] -H 'Content-Type: text/xml'
Note: build 13300 is rolling out slowly, so don't complain if you don't get the URL right away. It's entirely up to Google who gets it and who doesn't.
anyone gotten this yet and unpacked it to see what files have changes made to them?
Thank you! I wish I would have seen this sooner.
Now, with a little bit of python, I can automate the making of my rooted images

dev-channel ota?
Any idea how to get the dev-channel update zip?
I tried changing to track="beta-channel" in the xml, but that doesnt help.
It seems like there should be atleast one zip file for the below channels
stable-channel
beta-channel
canary-channel
dev-channel
developer-channel
dogfood-channel
Also found this interesting link in the updater binary.

As far as I can tell, none of those channels (except for beta which seems to just be an alias for stable) are active for a stock device. I'm guessing that to receive updates from those channels, your device has to be configured to send its serial number, which also has to be whitelisted on Google's servers. If you want to send a request with a serial number, just add a line like
Code:
serial_num="XXXXXXXXXXXX"
after line 4 (<o:app ...) in the XML. Unless you have access to a development unit's serial number, I doubt it will do much good though.
I had requeseted for whitelisting my device some time back. But never got a response from google.
Can anybody who already had their device whitelisted try the download using your device serial number, and let me know if it works?
I dont think there is anything device specific in the dev-channel system image. So I wonder why that system image is not shared already?

Just to conclude, it seems like there is no more separate dev-channel firmware download. Emulated my whitelisted devices update request, and received the regular stable-channel update.

If you are on Windows, then use same XML update2.req file, as @tchebb on 1st post and download cURL for Windows here.
Then use following command, since Linux one is not working in Windows (just place update2.req file in same directory as curl.exe):
Code:
curl -k https://tools.google.com/service/update2 -d @update2.req -H "Content-Type: text/xml"
After several hours of tinkering and editing, I think I've finally managed to make an easy way to emulate a Chromecast on your PC. Iv'e only worked on x64 based systems so far, but I'll do x32 if anyone needs it. All you have to do is download the file, place it on your desktop (or it won't work), extract the .tar (don't make a new folder) and follow the directions in INSTALL.txt. It shouldn't require any extra files except Google Chrome, but if it does or you have any other errors or advice, feedback is very appreciated.
I take no responsibility for any damages done by this. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK. Leapcast is the property of dz0ny at GitHub, not me. All I did was make an all-in-one install script.
I already have Python installed....Can I just run the Bat file?
Error running LeapCast.bat
I completed the installation but when I run LeapCast.bat got this error (see the image)
Edit: I found the problem, I need to Edit "PATH" environment variable to include this "C:\Python27" and this "C:\Python27\Scripts".
Good job!!!!
Only youtube detected the leapcast, I check Plex, Avia, Crackle and Allcast and they don't.

It's probably an error in my install script. It should have edited your PATH automatically, so I'll look into it. The compatibility problem is probably just an issue with the emulator itself. I'll keep an eye on the github page and update this as soon as its available. Thanks for the feedback!
Did you use the Chromecast app on your phone/tablet to detect it before you tried the other apps?

That's part of what the script does. If you want, you can ignore the basic Python install if you specifically have Python 2.7.5 installed, but you definitely need to let setuptools and pip install. Won't work without them I'm afraid. Thanks for the feedback!

Thanks Kind of what I expected....Will try this later tonite
Thanks for the effort!
Unfortunately, this doesn't seem to work. The .bat file it leaves on the desktop has a strange trailing ascii-character, but it still doesn't run correctly even after you remove it. I don't know why you would run it from desktop anyway rather than c:\python27\scripts anyway... It should run from anywhere if the PATH is set correctly, but this script didn't seem to do that. Finally, it would be smarter to use the .vbs provided by the leapcast dev instead of your errant .bat on the desktop. Again though, thanks for the attempt.
It would be great if someone could put together a full install using install-shield and all, or at least a working batch script that has been tested on a fresh install of WinXP/Win7/Win8.1 Maybe I will try to.
NOTE: If this works for others, please let us know, but I am fairly certain it has at least a few minor errors preventing it from working by following the instructions alone.

i have tried editing my system variables, but after running Leapcast.bat it say:
'leapcast' is not recognized as an internal or external command,operable program or batch file.
Please guide me through. AND github is down in my country right now

Installation files for 32 bit system
can you make a setup for 32 bit computer?
Can i run xbmc/kodi on my windows pc and use leapcast to send the video feed to my android phone - this way I can use the laptop as a remote and the phone as existing hardware - lowering my android tv experience to a cost of zero - or should I stick with remote desktop... lag could be an issue as leapcast is light weight via python - minus the $5 mhl
Nope

Leapcast does not work that way, its mainly for youtube etc... web based viewings. Why not run the laptop/ desktop to the TV set and remote in from the Android phone/ tablet via a remote control app or team view etc... You would defiantly have lagging issues if reversed. Plus you do not have the buy the micro usb to hdmi adapter? Kewl story bro!
Seriously smart, as you will not have to get up to change from one episode to the next and at no cost.

Managed to got it almost working IT's an old thread but I will give it a go.
Had to update Python to 2.7.9 for the SSL thing.
This is my issue :

Would that mean that google changed something and this no longer works?

Did u solved this?? same problem here.. let me know if u solved this
Don't know about your specific error, but Google definitely changed something. Leapcast doesn't work anymore. According to dz0ny on github:
This project no longer works because Google locked down entire API. There are alternatives like cloning device, casting apk from nexus player etc. Thanks for all contibutors and I hope we all learned something from this project. Meanwhile I'am keeping https://github.com/dz0ny/leapcast/issues/130 open if anyone wants to discuss something related to lepacast or 2nd screen paradigm.
I would love to re-implement this as an open source alternative to chromecast someday, but I won't make any promises.
Does anyone know a proper way to uninstall this?
Simple question. I want to start my own service from my package with the same permissions as the package i am hooking. Does anybody know how i could do this? I know if i use android:sharedUserId="android.uid.systemui" in the manifest, but it prevents it based off of signature mismatch. Could i use xposed to grant my app the sharedUserId?

I don't think that is possible. I haven't worked with services yet, but as far as I understood, you have to declare them in your manifest (in contrast to BroadcastReceivers, which can also be registered at runtime). Theoretically again, you could try to modify the manifest parsing and try to inject additional entries there.

Theoretically, I think yes, you could hook the package manager to ignore the signature mismatch etc. But I think it will be quite fragile.
What do you want to achieve with this?

I hate how Samsung removed widgets from the lockscreen. So i figured i'll create my own lockscreen and have it loaded by the system. I might just skip the whole service thing (which would make my lockscreen easier to write by having classes that extend things like FrameLayout as the stock lockscreen does) but i found where the lockscreen is actually shown. i may just inflate my own xml of the lockscreen using xposed resources and then adding it with windowmanager. Then the inflated view will follow the same permissions as the stock lockscreen and allow me to handle key presses and still preserve the security behind it.
Thanks rovo for the reply!
@rovo89
If i am inflating my own view inside a hooked method, how can i get the ids of my layout? I tried XModuleResources myRes; myRes.getIdentifier() but it returned null.
Be careful, Resources.getIdentifier() expects the arguments in a different order than Xposed, like getIdentifier("mystring", "string", "my.package.name").
Apart from that, simply use R.layout.my_layout.
