Could not load library "lib: surfaceflinger_client.so" - Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Trying to run "copy paste it " that i used to love on my note 2 on my current note 3.
It doesnt work , the screen didnt open . So i did some digging and the library needed "surfaceflinger_client.so" is no longer included in the current android version ?!
Does anyone have a copy of surfaceflinger_client.so file i can copy into /system/lib to make this app work ?
Is there any app besides copy paste it that allows you to draw a rectangle anywhere on the screen on your phone and ocr the text in that rectangle ?
Thanks

Anyone ?

Doom for android help

So the doom project has been shut down because of copy right issues, what id like to know is how many people out there have a working version of this and would be willing to share it with me
OR
If anyone would be so kind to advice me how to install the game so it runs.
I have a doom1.wad, prboom.wad and libdoom.so but I can't get the libdoom to install cos astrofile manager won't recognise the file type. And on the ' menu ' screen you get options to install wads and download them, I can't get it to not try to download stuff because there is nothing there to download as its all been removed cos of bloody copy right issues.
Any help would be great thanks

I'm with you, brother!
I've placed a mess of seemingly appropriate files in seemingly appropriate directories, and when I start Droid Zoom (on my HTC Evo Shift 4G) it doesn't know there are WADs there, and insists on trying to download a hard-coded WAD from google, which isn't there.
This is the only way that works for me right here :
- Download the following 3 files to your sdcard.
- Make sure that Install from Unknown Sources is Checked (System -> Manage Apps)
- Install prboom4android.apk
- Open your sdcard and create a folder called 'doom'
- Extract Doom.zip
- Extract prboomx-reqfiles.zip
- Copy the contents of the doom.zip (Doom wad file) to /sdcard/doom/doom.wad
- Copy the contents of the prboomx-reqfiles.zip to /sdcard/doom/prboom.wad and prboom.cfg
- Open prBoomX and play!

Hope that helps
Works perfectly!!
Wish you could save the game though :S
I followed exactly, but got this error message when press 'Play'
"CheckIWAD: iwad tag /sdcard/doom/doom.wad not present"
Yes I have checked \sdcard\doom\doom.wad is there

[Q] Create a link to a directory

Is it possible to create a link to a directory ?
For instance, I would like to access quickly and easily to the directory /sdcard/bluetooth from the home without using apps like Astro.
Thank you !

Multitool issues -

This is my first time figuring out how to put these back together... heres my issue: Im using the multi-tool the app im adjusting is mms.apk.. after I extract and edit the images in the res folder I choose option 3 to zip it up and then 5 to zip align and then it creates the new unsigned apk, which I then rename to Mms.apk ... when I dump it onto my phone it doesnt have the icon in astro, it looks like the white icon with the gear on it.. when i try to install it gives a parsing error... I assume its because its a system file and I need to adb it onto the phone.. but why isnt it showing up with the original mms icon? and then secondly.. I cant get multitool to adb push to my galaxy s2 it just says waiting on device.. is there something I need to do besides usb debugging and connect it to the computer? sorry for all the noobness.. gotta start somewhere right?
Oh also Im using fireworks to edit the png's and exporting them back and i noticed when i sent it back out it was like 29kb so I image export and optimized down to 2kb does that even matter?

[GUIDE] How to easily edit/modify .apk files! (Simple, Noob Friendly)

Hey Guys an' Girls!
Anyway, so when I first learnt how to decompile, modify then recompile .apks I found it was a rather slow process and figured out a far faster way.I searched google and xda many times and couldn't find my method anywhere. So without further ado, let's go through an easy, simple, step by step guide on how to modify .apk files!
Step 1 - Getting the .apk
Firstly, of course, you will need to obtain the .apk file that you want to edit. There are two methods to do this:
a) If you have the recovery flashable zip for the rom you are currently on, simply open it up, navigate to the file you want to edit (in my case system -> app -> settings.apk) and drag the .apk file onto your desktop.
b) Using root browser or a similar app on your device, navigate to the .apk you wish to edit and copy it onto your sdcard. Then connect to your computer and copy the file from your phone to the computer.
Step 2 - Editing/Modifying your .apk
Now is the important part. Install Winrar by clicking the link. http://www.win-rar.com/download.html?&L=0 Then open the .apk by right clicking the file -> open with -> WinRar. Now you can look around the .apk file. Find a file inside the .apk you wish to edit. (In my case I'm going to navigate to res -> mipmap-hdpi -> ic_launcher_settings.png). Just drag the file from the .apk and edit to your liking.
NOTE: It is recommended never to completely take everything out of the .apk and then put it all back in. Just do one file at a time.
Then when your finished, select the old file in the .apk and press the delete button. Now drag in the new edited file into where you found it. Easy!
Step 3 - Putting the new .apk back where it belongs
Now of course, your going to have to put it back on your device to see the changes in effect, there's no point having it on your computer! There are two ways to go about this:
a) Open up your rom and navigate to the place where you took your .apk file from. Click on the old .apk file and press the delete button. Now drag your new edited .apk file into the zip. Then connect your device to your computer and drag the rom onto the sdcard and flash it via recovery. Now reboot the system and see your change/s in effect!
b) Copy your new .apk file from your computer to your device. Then, using Root browser or a similar app, navigate to the old .apk file and look at the permisions. (eg. RW--r--) Now delete the old file and replace with the new, but make sure to set the permissions the same as they were before. Now Simply reboot and see your change/s in effect!
NOTE: For some .apk files (eg. Framework-res.apk) there might be missing folders inside the .apk (eg. Values).

This is an easy way to edit the images only(icons,wallpaper,etc),not XML files,Smali's and such.I do this using the kitchen,easy way if you theme alot.

You don't have to use this guide just for images. That was just the example. You can use it for almost any file inside an .apk. I was just saying that SOME folders aren't there.
Can you guide me to how do i keep same apps of diff versions.

How do I use a flashable to get rid of .apks??? ₩
On the app I have here it returns 20 results that it scrapes from a website. I only want it to return 3 or 4. How do I get in there and change that value?
I want to change values on touchwiz launcher on my note 3, to use it in 440 dpi. When I use it there is so much margin on all sides, and I need to reduce. I need to add a new icon row as well. Can I do that just by modifying the app?

are the .xml files encrypted or something? when i try to edit them, it is a bunch of strange characters
Hi,
I would like to modify the tinychat.apk so that i can find how to change my device info/platform from android to something else, like pc or whatever. I dont want to be identified as using an android device. Is this possible?
Regards.

Yes, depending on what tool you use to decompile the apk files it may or may not decrypt them. I use apktool and it decrypts them just fine.
I think this method is no longer working for 4.3+

Thnax for great guide but,my gopro app has a update and I have changed the icon on it but the app store dosent show me the update button. How to fix so I can update?
What do I need to change in an app to substitute it for another app?
OK so I've installed a new ROM and it comes with a kernel setting app preinstalled. This app has been integrated into the system settings portion of the ROM. I want to replace this kernel settings app with one of my choice but I want to be able to integrate it into the system settings like the original app is. I tried disguising the new app by changing the name of the app and .apk files but that didn't work. Closest I got was being able to convert my app to system app but even though I changed the name, the app, when installed goes back to it's original name. Or what permissions or files do I need to change to allow the integration of my app into the settings interface. Thanks ahead of time, it's appreciated.

Gstek GT08s (mt6261)

Hi,
I'm new here. I bought Gstek GT08s watch and I'm quite happy about it. Didn't cost much. But one thing I would like to do is upload new watch faces an use them. I tried to read and learn is that possible but I'm not sure. So is there an easy way to do that or is it even possible with GT08s?
Here's more information about this model that I have:
version: LD991B V5.7_MJW_GT08S_XF7789_9304_3A01_LANGA_V5.6.
BUILD TIME: 2017/02/13
BB CHIP: MT6261
ok, I managed to make a readback and now I'm trying to add new watch faces.
1. do a copy of the firmware you want to change (for instance rename the new containing folder <DZ09 mod1>)
2. create a folder (lets call it <new watch faces>) and put inside all watch face gifs you have
3. obviously, start the program (attached hereunder)
4. press open (left down buton) browse to <DZ09 mod1> , as extension select all files and select ROM (or FILE_01_mtk) - <open>
5. press upper right side <workdir> and go to your <new watch faces> folder and press ok
6. press <Pictures> upper left and in the main list from left pick which picture you want to change and click on it
7. in the right side choose the picture you want to insert and click on it
8. press upper right side button <import> if shows successful go to step 9 if not the picture you chose is to big
9. press save - it opens browser in the <DZ09 mod1>, check ROM (or FILE_01_mtk) and accept to overwrite the file
10. flash <DZ09 mod1> on your phone and enjoy!
Number 5 is where it stops. I can't find "workdir" anywhere from upper right side. I can file workdir from pictures, but it still needs target folder and it can't be chosen anywhere. Are those instructions maybe for older version of MTK_res. I'm using MTK_res_V1.3.
Any advice?
So, "select ROM (or FILE_01_mtk)".. it doesn't work with GT08s I suppose. When creating backup files it doesn't create ROM file, just mk1, mk2 and some other files. No ROM file so that might be the problem. It seems that GT08s watch faces can't be changed.
Hello!
Do you still have a copy of your original firmware? I made a copy and tried to flash some roms. Sadly afterwards I noticed that my original backup was corrupted and now I can't get back to stock rom anymore. None of the ROMs I tried so far worked with the touchscreen. So if you still have a copy please post it!!!
