As you told earlier that you want to edit the network settings of the app. U can do that very easily of a signed app. by editing its jad file by using Mobyexplorer on your phone itself. And then installing the app from the edited jad file.

there are some people who were able to edit jar files but i really don't know what did they use. some of the things that i wanna modify are:

first: the name of the application after installing the jar file
second: the network settings of an application so that i can use that specific application for free without being charged by our network provider

i know how to do that but i don't know what editor will i use.


I think these informations can be found in the manifest file that every java app contains... I'm 100% sure for the name changes.. I have done it thousand times before. But for the other, try yourself. And you need only notepad to open and edit that file. Nothing special.

In our country, indonesia, I heard some people mod the header request of Opera Mini to spoof our network provider. That means they can use Opera Mini without being charged... Is that what you mean?

Just extract it using WinRaR, modify it by Notepad, then repack it as zip archive. Don't forget to rename .zip to .jar...

I cn also browse the internet 4 free using opera mini mod versions like 2.06. What i wanna do now is to create a mod version of opera mini 4.1.

I've already done what u said b4 but i'm getting d same problem. If i'm only going 2 edit the manifest.mf, there's no problem. But if i'll edit the class files, it's gonna say application error aftr installation.

winrar...
if it doesn't get opened, simply change the format from jar to rar [simply by rewriting the ending of the name]

He is not talking about winrar... You can open the jar file with winrar using the window's "open with" option, but the problem is finding another software that is able to open the java class files inside the jar file. And editing them without screwing the application.
