Lately I've been editing all my apps from the market using mixpix404's tips. I just wanted to know is it possible to pull stock apps to edit and if so could someone give me the code to pull and re-install?
not sure about that stuff but where is the mixpix404's tips? I'd like to read them.

It's mixpix405... get it right! :) jk... but seriously!... jk

As for editing stock apps, I think you'll have to edit an update and flash the update to your phone. In a theme, the stock apps are in the system/app folder... Use 7-zip to open the archive, edit, resign, reflash... I havent tried it, so I can't say for sure it works... And I dont really know how else to do it.

You may just be able to extract, for example, the Calendar.apk from the update.zip, edit it, and then use conventional means (appmananger, astro, ADB, etc) to install it, but I have absolutely no clue.
