(Tools) Avabox

So this is the Avabox. original title i know

I put this to together back with the hero during some hard forums times in order to push further development with customizations. and it worked.

so here it is for the Evo devs. I set it up for windows but of course perl scripts run in linux so its universal. But if you want to learn/work on some customizations for the evo but you dont wanna dual boot linux or w/e here is something for you.

im hoping to see some good things soon

any issues with this just comment or pm. good luck.

You are really doing us a favor. The Avabox's in the Hero forum were a life saver(but I lost the links to them).

Putting this in my Resources Guide. A must-have toolbox.

its a compilation of scripts for windows to cook a rom and create/modify/extract/compile/unzip/deodex/sign/everything android 1.5 and up.

works with linux too.

Good timing. I'm here trying to remove yxplayer's trial / 2min time limit. Managed to decompile, edited smali files, recompile, sign. So far so good, worked as expected (re-mapping various functions to different buttons). Now gotta hunt down the code which actually triggers that 2min play limit, and with some luck, maybe the whole validate-the-serial-number routine

PS: was using only APKTool & Auto-Sign. Will check out the tools in Avabox and see if they will be useful.

This includes the installer for 64-bit ActivePerl. Here's the link for the 32-bit installer in case anyone needs it: http://downloads.activestate.com/Ac...ActivePerl-5.10.1.1007-MSWin32-x86-291969.msi

I tried doing a search to see if anyone had the problem I am currently having, but I could not find anything (on the hero forums as well). So, I thought I would ask the community.

I am trying to deodex an apk. The program says that it deodexed it, but there is no classes.dex file in the apk. I am getting an error running it though. Here is the error:

Any clues? Thanks in advance for any response and help you might be able to offer.

Could a complete nub download this and make a ROM? I've been interested in getting into development, but I have no clue where to start. I catch onto things quickly, and I'm willing to learn. I just don't know where to begin.

What apk are you trying to deodex? Are you using the right BOOTCLASSPATH?

I'm a noob, so please forgive me. I am not sure about the BOOTCLASSPATH. I am trying to deodex htcmailwidgets.apk. I know there are already deodexed ones out there, but I wanted to deodex the one from the legend (it has a couple of options for the widget which are not able to be done with the standard mail widget) to use on my hero without changing to the Legend ROM. Hope that makes sense.

Sense bootclasspath is: core.jar:ext.jar:framework.jar:android.policy.jar:services.jar:com.htc.framework.jar:com.htc.android.pimlib.jar:com.htc.android.easopen.jar:com.scalado.util.ScaladoUtil.jar

I haven't used Avabox yet. I hope this helps until I can play around with this tonight.

That is a fairly old version of smali/baksmali. You really should either use smali/baksmali directly, or at least find a tool/script that has/uses an up to date version

May not ever use this personally, but thanks for this.

I may have completely misread the OP, and forgive me if I did, but aren't there supposed to perl scripts in the package that would allow me to use this in Linux? I am not seeing anything but .exe and .bat files. I dont use Windows, and wouldnt trust wine to do development work. Is there another version of this floating around I can use?

Edit: I found the code repository http://code.google.com/p/smali/

Edit2: NM. I finally opened my eyes and found the perl scripts in Boot Scripts. The above code repo is the updated version of Smali.

Looking to unpack the data.img files that are created when you do a backup of your phone. Not seeing that this will work - do you have ideas on how?
