When executing the command, got the following error:

ERROR: Missing executable => 7za
ERROR CODE: 65

I'm running OSX and from the looks of the files in the tools folder, I guess something is missing for OSX.

Hardcoding input and output directories are a big hindrance for proper distribution packaging of this software.

I hereby feature request that the user has to or can specify the input and output directories by command line options, e.g. -i <inputdir> and -o <outputdir>, and maybe if not specified you default not to something which is a sub-directory of main.py, but which resides in the user's home directory, e.g. ~/.tingle/input/ and ~/.tingle/output/ on unixoid systems, and something similar on Windows.

Regards!

My new ROM contains a very small framework.jar file:

hi,

how does this work? i suppose applying a text diff over backsmalied framework? then this is kind of brittle and will break often with minute framework changes, and could require different diffs for different roms.

consider using dexpatcher instead. i could look into it myself but im travelling and have no time now. disadvantage: less granularity to do changes. advantages: much much less brittle, changes in java without having the exact source code, seems like changes might be very simply implemented as method wrappers. also, dexpatcher can run on the device itself (pure java), and it could probably be cross compiled to native to support patching in recovery; the addon.d mechanism to repatch on system upgrade is even possible.

i can help with the coding of the dexpatcher patch.

Hello. On macos 10.12.3 patched crashing with such error
java.lang.RuntimeException: java.util.concurrent.ExecutionException: java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space

I added key "-Xmx512m" to line 333 (assemble function)

ass_cmd = [DEPS_PATH["java"], "-Xmx512m", "-jar", SCRIPT_DIR+"/tools/smali.jar"]
and now it working.

I have no idea which limit really needed, but when compling java growes to near 200mb (as I seen in top).

I'm on Ubuntu 16.04. All dependencies loaded (according to the script). I had to go out and get 7za, no biggie.

It seemed to almost make it through, but I know the internal structure of the Pixel series is a bit different, so I'm not totally surprised it failed. Any other info you need?

Can you add instructions for manual pushing? And perhaps what permissions to set if necessary?

EDIT: Almost forgot this. When I push apps to /system, I have to go here:

/system/system/priv-app

So I think the path needed to push this file back to the Pixel device is:

/system/system/framework/framework.jar

Ironically, when viewing the file system within the OS, you don't see that, but in TWRP it's as clear as day.

Trying it manually in TWRP now.

EDIT (final): It worked!!

I used TWRP to copy the patched framework.jar on my pc (in the "output" folder of this script) into:

/system/system/framework[/framework.jar]

Did chmod 644, pushed gsm_core.apk to /system/system/priv_app and did chmod 644 for the apk. Rebooted and GSM Core reports signature spoofing enabled! Still further testing needed, but we're at the 95% mark on Pixel :-D

Hopefully the script can be updated to fully automate the process as intended!

EDIT: I just got haystack working... only issue was the script didn't wait long enough for remount (device appeared to be unplugged I guess?). Maybe that's the issue in this script a well. On a separate note, within the OS, /system/framework does exist, but under TWRP or bootloader, it's actually /system/system/framework.

Running Tingle with an adbd server that already has root privileges causes the program to stall at the following stage:

*** Patching succeeded.
 *** Reassembling classes...
      DEBUG: Assembling out/classes.dex
 *** Recompressing framework...
      DEBUG: Compressing framework.jar
 *** Copying the patched file to the output folder...

      DEBUG: adbd is already running as root
### Stalls here

I was able to manually push the framework.jar file from the output folder back onto the phone, however, given that my phone basically requires me to have adbd running as root (or else I get "error: insufficient permissions for device"), and killing that server just to restart it and have it get elevated privileges is annoying - especially when Tingle keeps insisting that adbd still has root privileges (on subsequent runs).

I have a phone running CM13 with CM recovery
Booted to recovery and sideloaded CM update zip
Then went to Advanced >> Mount /system
When trying to run Tingle get the following error:

What am I doing wrong?

I came from here souramoo#16 with the same issue. Here are the two files you asked for: boot-fw.zip

My device has /system/framework/arm/boat.oat as well as /system/framework/arm64/boat.oat. They are quite large (about 60MB) so I only included the first one as you requested but if you need the other let me know. When I run your patch this is the output:

$ sudo python3 patch.py
Where do you want to take the file to patch?

2 - From the input folder

Hi,

Coming from microg/UnifiedNlp#133, I wanted to give the unofficial microG installer a try (from https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/development/microg-unofficial-installer-t3432360).

Since I'm using LineageOS 14.1, I first need to add signature spoofing, so i came here to try Tingle.

I downloaded the current version, but here's the output :
`python main.py

path += '/' + b
UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xc3 in position 16: ordinal not in range(128)`

That must be some kind of UTF-8 encoding issue, right ?

I want to patch my phone (Samsung Galaxy S3 Mini with unofficial CM12.1) with Tingle and it seemed to work, but it didn't finish the process. This is how far I got in the (Linux) Terminal:

$ python main.py 
MENU

At this point, it stops going further, but it didn't crash. I'm not able to get a logcat (adb logcat in a different Terminal seems to hang as well and doesn't produce any output).

Any idea what could cause this? And what to do to get around?

I try to use Tingle on ROMs from this site:
http://download.jesec.io/
These are unofficial for the S7, but official LineageOS ROMs have the same problem.

Tingle can't deal with those ROMs as framework.jar does not contain .dex files. It assumes they are odexed.
Un-odexer tools cannot deal with the ROMs, too, as they don't contain .odex files. So they are recognized as already unodexed.

I already used a modified stock ROM (called SuperMan) on this S7. Tingle deals with that one flawlessly.

I'm now a bit at a loss. Am I doing something completely wrong with the AOSP ROMs?

The script itself probably already works, but there are some dependencies missing on OS X and it also miss testing.

logcat.txt
Restoring the framework.jar doesn't help either

Currently running CM13 with CM recovery
Installed Tingle but experienced major problem
So trying to reverse using following steps:
In recovery, mount /system
$ adb push "./output/framework.jar.backup" /system/framework/framework.jar
But looks like there is no adb support in CM recovery
No other recovery exists for my phone
How can I revert?

This is because the included 7za-win32.exe only runs on 32-bit windows. Despite the message at the top (Windows 10 (win32)) I'm running on x64.

A workaround for anybody else running into this problem:

1. Download and install 7Zip. The portable version is fine.
2. Look in the 7Zip install dir for 7z.exe
3. Copy 7z.exe to tingle\tools
4. Rename it to 7za-win32.exe so that the python script will find it.

When I try to install the patch, I get the following error message: NameError: name 'true' is not defined. Did you mean: 'True'?

I tried the Needle patch first and got the same error message except the undefined word was false.

i got in this bad situation here where i patched multiple times. eventually, i wanted to back to the original non-spoofed signature, but because i ran tingle multiple times, the .backup file now refers to an already patched version tingle had downloaded from the phone...

it would seem preferable to rotate those backups or at least not overwrite them to avoid dataloss.

Add support for patching Android from inside Android itself.

Maybe you should add the information that you have to install 7zip on macOS in the Terminal.

I tried to install this library 'libraries' manually but nothing worked so far... I'm using python 3.9.4 btw.

I installed the flashable microG services and CarbonROM doesn't support the unifiedNlp package.

To what I understand this tool only patch for signature spoofing and not for unifiedNlp support.
Is that correct?

How does this app control/limit, which apps can spoof signatures?

Haystack e.g. does/did it via permissions and an entry in the developer tools. How does tingle control it?

Allowing all apps to spoof signatures is obviously dangerous.

Attempting to run tingle from TWRP without /system mounted (the default behavior, it seems) results in this crash message:

Perhaps including a couple of adb commands to check if /system is mounted at all before pulling the framework.jar?

On a side note, I saw that Tingle correctly remounts /system as rw if it was mounted ro, but I got this message. Everything worked out and the system got patched, but the DEBUG message is confusing:
*** Remounting /system...
DEBUG: remount of vendor failed: Success
remount failed

I'm trying to patch on android itself. I prefer to use Termux instead of QPython because it is a complete terminal (not just for python). In it I have installed Python 3.7.1 and p7zip 16.02-1. The same error occurs when using option "2" or "3". Attached is my framework.jar in case you need to take a look. Thank you!

I need /system/framework/framework.jar from Android O for testing.

If you want to help me, send me the file please.

Hi,

Your patch sends me errors for both methods.
In fact, the Huawei P7 file/folder architectures seems to be my problem (and since i'm not the first Huawei owner encountering difficulties i bet solving this issue would help others too)...i admit i don't know much about file/folder architectures of other devices:

• for a typical system/app, for exemple AirSharing app:
  system/app/AirSharing/AirSharing.apk (file) + system/app/Airsharing/lib (folder); no *.dex file
• for system/framework:
  system/framework/*.jar (lot of files) + system/framework/arm (folder) (with a lot of *.xposed files in it); no *.dex file

All the *.dex files are in : data/dalvik-cache/arm and are named typically directoryX@directoryY@directoryZ@[email protected] (for AirSharing given above, directoryX is "system", directoryY is "app", directoryZ is "AirSharing", appname is AirSharing)

So what do you advice me in order to spoof app signatures?

I'll try to put all *.jar with their associated *.dex in tingle-master/input folder and execute main.py...
If you think the problem doesn't lie here or if you have a better idea, please let me know.
If you implement a new tingle to fix this issue, i'll take it too ;-)
Bye

Hello, I tried using tingle with my installation of Windows 7 and get following error:

I installed Java and ADB correctly before, enabled USB Debugging on my Android Smartphone, allowed root access for ADB.

I'd be really happy about some help.

Need testing on 64-bit phones since I don't have any 64-bit phone.

Modern devices use system-as-root, so the framework can be in /system/system — while in the recovery at least. I've been doing this:

Patched framework.jar from a v7.1.2 ROM does not boot - left it for over an hour. Going back to unpatched file works fine. Is there anything that I can do to troubleshoot?

As requested here a new issue.

When running "python main.py" in TWRP 3.0.2 recovery with the system partition mounted on an Asus Z00AD (ZE551ML), the process hangs indefenitely on "Rooting adbd"

*** Decompressing framework... DEBUG: Decompressing framework.jar *** Disassembling classes...

Running "adb -s device_name root" or "adb -s device_name wait-for-device" from within unofficial CM14.1 or TWRP recovery doesn't print any lines. Running "adb -s device_name wait-for-device" in recovery makes the command prompt stall.

Hopefully I have provided enough information. In case I did not please let me know!

Tingle didn't show any error, and everything else shows as okay in microg (including signature spoofing). Device restart did not help. Any idea how to fix this?
