[Q] Diseccting Apps

Howdy,

I had recently updated my Legend to SuperGinger from [email protected] I had moved from Azure 1.0 because I was comfortable with everything working and looked nice. Big props to AlexHof for working on the Legend btw.

In reinstalling the majority of my apps and configuring to my liking, I noticed once I moved around to ringtones I was in a bit of a pickle.

The only reason why I had stuck with Azure1.0 was because I found the stock message app didnt populate names when I was sending a new message. I remedied this problem with HandcentSMS, and all of its other features. Now handcent has this feature where it allows you to choose the default program "Select Music" as opposed to "System" when selecting a ringtone, which allows me to select music from my phone and not just the default ringtones.

My question to XDA members and enthusiasts is, "is there any way to dissect this "Select Music" and integrate it into the ROM."
Or even just install the Select Music as a separate app without Handcent.
Im more than happy to keep handcent on the phone just for the select music, but it seems like a waste. Im a bit OCD. Hiding it in LauncherPro is my only option I guess.

Ive been meaning to take up some developing in my uni holidays, though I got as far as loading android sdk and eclipse (which i use for uni anyway) and got lost in all the java. They only teach us C++. =(

I have another question about Rom Settings but ill might hold of pending the answers I get from this. =P Saves me humiliation.


Cheers and Peace!

Unless you are either very good at reverse engineering or reading java bytecode you need to get the sourcecode of an application in order to reuse some of it's features for a standalone app.
Since you won't be able to get the handcent sourcecode, maybe you should ask the developer to provide an app with just the functionality you want.
