Quickpic before the takeover by Cheetah Mobile (preferably unsigned so it doesnt update) , please ? :)

Context:

http://www.xda-developers.com/xda-external-link/quickpic-now-owned-by-maker-of-clean-master/

UPDATE (2015-09-12): an older version of QuickPic has been found (v3.4.9.1) which is before all the cloud integration (and server callbacks) were implemented. In fact, it does not request any Internet permissions at all. If this interests you, see the bottom of this post for the original Play Store APK and also the re-signed (neutered) APK. Credits to /u/var_without_a_clause on Reddit. An analysis of it (click on the "File detail" tab) shows that it does not have any server calls as found in v4.5.2 (e.g. http://ver.q-supreme.com/update, http://alog.umeng.co/app_logs, and http://alog.umeng.com/app_logs)

Summary:
v4.5.2 = pre-acquisition version that came with cloud integration and unfortunately some server calls. To block Internet access, use AppOps, Privacy Guard, AFWall+ and/or XPrivacy.
v3.4.9.1 = older version without any cloud integration/Internet permissions/server calls (may contain some bugs due to its age, but I haven't encountered any). In fact, I think this version is more responsive than v4.5.2.

Here you go, this is a re-signed copy (v4.5.2, which is pre-acquisition) so it will never ask to update:

Note: if possible and if rooted, I may recommend using AFWall+ (Play Store / F-Droid) to block QuickPic from accessing the Internet (if not using any of the cloud services). Just install AFWall+, change blocking mode to "Blacklist Mode", then tick LAN, WiFi and Data for QuickPic to block it (and really any other apps that don't need Internet access, like games, camera apps, galleries, calculators, etc.). I believe even pre-acquisition by Cheetah Mobile, QuickPic would connect to servers like http://ver.q-supreme.com/update, http://hub.q-supreme.com, http://alog.umeng.co/app_logs, and http://alog.umeng.com/app_logs.

Original Play Store QuickPic v4.5.2 APK

The above file was created with the help of this guide and the original QuickPic v4.5.2 APK => I uploaded it in case anyone wants it as well. As verification, you can find an identical copy of the original v4.5.2 APK on APKMirror: http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/q-supreme-team/quickpic/quickpic-4-5-2-2-android-apk-download/.

I provided the MD5, SHA1 and SHA256 hashes of both the original and re-signed QuickPic v4.5.2 APKs so you can be certain that I didn't tamper with it other than to re-sign it. To verify, you can follow the steps I took to re-sign it by using the above guide and the original APK if you wish.

Re-signed (aka Neutered) QuickPic v3.4.9.1
(you need to uninstall QuickPic before installing this)

With this version, you may not need to block it with AFWall+ or XPrivacy (since it does not request Internet permissions). I am personally using this version (Greenified, blocked in AFWall+, and blocked in XPrivacy except "Storage" and "View") since I don't use any cloud features (as found in v4.5.2) and I find this version very responsive.

Have any concerns about the re-signed APKs?

You can download the original Play Store APKs (either from above or from APK Mirror, etc), compare the hashes I provided (or find hashes elsewhere), and re-sign them yourself using this guide or a tool like ZipSigner.

Can someone MOD the MI Fit app?

Hi Team,

Can anyone help with modifying MI-Fit app to allow installation on Samsung Grand Quattro Gt-I8552B.

Its rooted and running Android 5.1 (DROIDWIN 5.0 - V3.2 MATERIAL LOLLIPOP EDITION UPDATE GT-I8552)
Google Play store still won't allow to download stating device compatibility issue.

Here's what I've already tried:

1. Have the Apk, but get parsing error on installation, tried the build prop edit solution,
2. Pushed the app to Google Drive to install from there,
3. Tried the Market Helper app but still nogo!

Appreciate all the help!


Thanks,

Amish
