[MOD][XPOSED][4.0+] Keepchat - Save your Snapchats automatically!

sturmen · May 22, 2013

THIS PROJECT IS NOW HELMED BY STAMMLER.

CHECK OUT HIS NEW THREAD!

I (sturmen) AM NO LONGER INVOLVED.

Original post preserved for posterity.

I heard that saurik had finally brought Cydia Substrate to Android, and I used it to whip up with this tweak. However, since Substrate isn't compatible with my phone, I ported it over to the Xposed Framework by rovo89. And now I present it to all of you!

KEEPCHATa mod for Snapchat

Features:

Hooks into the Snapchat application; just install and go

Saves both images and videos

Toast popups to notify you of success

Open Source

Free!

Installation:

Install Xposed Framework

Install Keepchat

Enable Keepchat in Xposed

Reboot Phone

Use Snapchat as normal

Find your saved Snaps in /sdcard/keepchat/

IMPORTANT NOTE: While Keepchat is enabled, all Snaps you view will be marked as SCREENSHOTTED! I figured it was only fair to the people sending you Snaps. If you don't like it, Keepchat is open source.

If you do choose to compile your own version of my app, I ask you not share it. It is, for lack of a better term, "unauthorized." You may only freely distribute the APK attached to this post. Any derivatives of this app that I do not sanction are considered warez.

Speaking of the source code, you can find it here.

I hope you like my little tweak. I welcome any questions or comments, and I'll be happy to explain any of the code. I tried to explain what I was doing as I went along, but I'm sure I missed something.

If you're interested, here's a guide to get you started with building your own Xposed Modules:

Install Eclipse+ADT.

Get a project using git (such as mine).

Make sure you've imported the necessary libraries as defined in the Xposed Documentation.

Export your APK and install on your phone!

These instructions rely on Eclipse because it is mature and supported by the Xposed developer. As Android Studio steps out of alpha I'm sure it will be picked up and integrated here.

Excellent work. Has anyone compiled this without screen shot notification yet?

Fatastic! Thanks for your work

Yay good work

Just wondering, where's the line we need to edit in your code ? I'm not familiar at all with android compilation yet.

Thanks in advance :victory:

I found the XposedBridgeApi.jar online and it fixed that error. Go to configure build path and under libraries where the error is, click edit and find the appropriate .jar you downloaded.

That isn't the line I changed either for successful results.

Exactly, but be aware that they'll be notified for each pic that is saved.

Pushed a change that might help you find it. I ask you don't redistribute the changed APK: basically, the whole idea here is for other people to learn, which is why I'm making them do work. "Teach a man to fish" and all that. :angel:

That's exactly right. Thank you so much for doing that, I learned so much making the changes! Stuff that I have wanted to learn for a while but haven't. Thanks again!!

I can confirm this. I have successfully disabled the screenshot notification as well.

Yes, it's quite simple if you understand how the code works.

Sorry, OP has requested that we don't distribute the APK/say how to do it if we've worked it out.

I used Eclipse to compile it. Take a look into setting up eclipse for android apps.
