LAN

The other folders on the root-level are :
Code:
\\Plugins
Appication Data
ConnMgr
Documents and Settings
Interner Speicher
MUSIC
Program Files
Programme
Temp
TomTom
Windows
Could anybody tell me the name of the folder the folder i accidentally renamed.
Thanks in advance

Yes, i have a german rom.
Anyway, i found the name myself. I renamed My Documents and mistook the \\Plugin folder with the My Documents folder in the posting above.
Thanks for helping kidnamedAlbert.
Hi, I am using the iskoot software, installed by an apk files. But I need to change a setting of this software, and in Windows Mobile I used to change the registry setting I need, but now, we do not have a registry....so what I am asking is, there is a way to unpack an apk files to see where and wich files it install? So that I can go there and edit the conf file I need?
Thanks!

apks are just zip files. Set them to open with your archive manager or change the extension to .zip. All applications install their settings into /data/data/%PACKAGENAME% where %PACKAGENAME% is the Java-style package name of the app.
Ugh, no need to use the evil "R" word here. You're going to give us nightmares!
Each application stores its configurations/settings in its home directory in /data/data as pointed out by the previous poster. You might want to bone up on 'sqlite3' as most configuration settings tend to be stored in such databases.

I'am trying right now to find this confing files, thanks, I'll let you know if it's ok.
Note that depending on what you are trying to do, the config files may or may not be able to adjust the property you're after. No matter what, the program itself must support what you are trying to do (this goes for ALL OS's -- you simply can't change something that is irrelevant and expect it to do what you want) and more often than not, the ability to adjust that property would be presented by the program itself.
That is, of course, not to say that manually adjusting the config files is useless, because there IS a lot you can do directly from the config files.

Download APK2EXE and NSIS install system
Follow these steps to create your executable!
* Extract APK2EXE to a new directory
* Add your APK to the directory
* Doubleclick APK2EXE.NSI and edit the 3 lines containing information about your application.
* Right click the NSI file, and select 'Compile NSIS Script' - this will create your install EXE
* Done!
And it is a .apk to .exe converter !!!
Can anyone tell me why it doesn't work ? Many thanks
because your trying to run a Android application on Windows.
it's like saying I want to make this MAC application run on windows.. it just doesn't work..
I dont care what programs say.. Its not coded for Windows so it wont understand what the program does...
BTW you application you speak of is meant to install APK's FROM windows not TO windows
"Hot on the heels of my installAPK utility to let you install APKs from your Windows desktop, I now have another neat trick... which allows developers to distribute APKs as Windows EXE files instead."

shouldnt be too tough. just make a executable file that installs and configures adb, allows user to select apk or select a folder of apk's, create a .bat file that tells windows command prompt adb push the .apk to the sd card, then adb install /sdcard/nameofapk.apk
simple enough!
Can anyone tell me how to edit the app / extracted APK file to make the phone think it's a completely different app i.e. install it twice...
Not trying to cause trouble, I'm just looking to install an older version of an app as well as the updated version...

Thanks for replying, I've had a go with that and extracted / decompiled, compiled, signed, and that doesn't work, when I try to install the newly created apk it still tries to overwrite it...
I've watched the vid and read the comments but haven't worked it out yet... Can you point me in the right direction about which bit to edit?
i think you need apktool
Cool, I'll look into that... Any pointers on how to do it once I've got apktool?
command line usage, this tool unpak and repak
Go into 'My Files' and try re-naming your Android, DCIM and sd folders.
When you 're-name' your Android and DCIM folders you are really creating new folders, not re-naming your old ones.
And when you try to re-name your sd folder, you will be told that you can't.
Get to know Android.

Well first, how do you know which folders can be renamed and which can't?
Will linux create a new folder (and all its contents) whenever you rename one or just when you rename certain ones?
TIA

To add new font, you should try to root your lenovo first.

Where should i find system/font ? I only see .system (starts with dot character)
Hi all,
I finally managed to root!!! yey.
BUT
Can't see any "system" folder in my phone root folder, only one named ".system" but not any folder inside
Can you guide me to locate or create the font folder?
Thanks in advanced
Israel
did not work for me
I extracted the zip file to my computer and then created font folder under system in my K3 and copied all 74 files to this folder.
It did not help.
What did I do wrong?
Thanks
Eli
can't create folder
just copy all this fonts to system --> font[/QUOTE]
hi
i can't create te foldet to put the fonts
(the phone is rooted )
worked perfect.
download the zip file from an earlier post, take the 2 .tff files that include the word 'Hebrew' in them.
copy these 2 files to your system storage somewhere you'll remember.
now use a file browser on your device to access the Root 'System' folder (i just used Root Explorer) and copy the 2 files from the location and paste them into System/Fonts. (YES, of course you have to be rooted to do this)
change the permission to rw-r--r-- like all the other files.
reboot.
Hebrew is great in the system now.
can't find the fonts
I've tried doing what is written here to no avail.
I have rooted my phone and copied a hebrew.ttf file into the system\font and it is not working.
The file referred to earlier isn't available. Is there a specific font that works?

root your phone and then use xposed installer. it has a module for hebrew font.
This is a simple module to replace your device's boot animation systemlessly.
Supports any device (probably)
Supports any boot animation (for your device)
Use with Magisk 20.3 or newer
Usage:
Place any boot animation.zip file on root of internal storage
( sdcard/ or storage/emulated/0/ )
Default install location is /system/media
(Most devices use this location)
If your device doesn't place boot animations there, you can create a txt file on the root of internal storage (This file is automatically generated after running the script once) to specify a different install location. It needs to be labeled
Code:
install-location.txt
Contents of it should be the location directory for your device
Example
Code:
/system/media
Or
Code:
/carrier/media
Thanks to @topjohnwu for Magisk
Thanks @Zackptg5 for MMT-Extended and debugging
Tested on OnePlus 7T - Android 10 - Magisk 20.3
Future plans are to add this module to the Magisk Official Repo, but for now downloads are attached here.
Also planned support for more than just bootanimation.zip such as Samsung phones
Script Error
During the installation, the script says "Install-location.txt not round!" In which folder should I place the install-location.txt file ?

After installing the first time, if it doesn't find it, it will make one that you can edit. Or you can place it in the root of your internal storage. Usually /sdcard

Working fine on Mi 9T. Thanks!
cant seem to get this to work on my pixel 3 running the last Dirty Unicorns.
Got this working. Thanks.
Neither working for me. Only longens the boot. My Device is an FP3 on Andoid 10 and location /system/product/media. Just to give you an short feedback.
I had to unzip the replacer zip file and edit the customize.sh file. Also put everything including your new bootanimation in root of internal storage.
You need to modify these lines:
# Construct your own list here
REPLACE="
$LOCATION/bootanimation.zip
to something like this :
# Construct your own list here
REPLACE="system/media/bootanimation.zip"
after REPLACE= this is the location of your original bootanimation.zip which us usually in system/media but may also be in locations like prism/media/carriers/single/ATT/media/
on newer Samsung phones. The ATT would be replaced with whatever network name your phone is on like VZ, TMOB etc or whatever you find in that folder if your aren't on ATT.

The $LOCATION variable is read from the install location txt file.
I have a rooted OP8T running DerpFest... I got this to work making the following 2 changes:
1. If you edit "customize.sh" file, there is no need for the "install-location.txt" file...
- here is what mine looks like (notice I left all lines in place)
Code:
# Construct your own list here
REPLACE="
system/product/media/bootanimation.zip
"
2. If you unzip the file, you'll see a "system" folder... I basically created the same folder structure from above and then added the "bootanimation.zip" file I want to use. For example, the files and folders within "system" should match ur phones directories. This idea came from a similar Mod I used on the same phone, but with the stock OS.
So once everything was in place, I zipped that along with the edited "customize.sh" file into a new "bootanimationreplacer" file.
If anyone has an OP8T, my modified version should work for you... I also created my own boot animation if you wanna check it out.
