spoof getinstallerpackagename with adb

as i wrote back in another post about anti-cracking technique examples, one method that is often used is getinstallerpackagename(). if the apk is installed from adb, it will be null, but if it's installed from the market it will be com.google.android.feedback. antilvl is well aware of this already, but there is an easier solution for when you're in a hurry. i learned it reading this post at tim's fantastic blog on reversing. he's not affiliated with me and for all i know he's an upstanding white hat who just loves hacking android.

all you need is adb. just give it this command either in a shell or as:

adb install -i com.google.android.feedback com.protected.app

 this will setup com.google.android.feedback as the installer for the com.protected.app. if you're not sure what the app name is for a given apk, just use aapt, from the android-sdk. ex: aapt d --values badging someapk.apk

original smalihook java source

i've noticed some interest about a file that antilvl sometimes uses when cracking a program. it's called smalihook and it's purpose is to provide "hook" (actually replacement) methods for things like getting device id or signature. it's not really anything special, unless you actually modify the places in the app that make use of certain function calls. there is also a smalihook.java floating around that is actually a badly decompiled, broken version. i'd rather people have the real thing.

the variable strings that start with "%!" (ex: %!AppPackage%) are for antilvl to replace with the actual information when it copies it over.

if you want to use any of the functions here you can simply use antilvl.

if you just want to spoof your android_id or getdeviceid, try this: http://strazzere.com/blog/?p=217

smali syntax highlighting for vim

i've been doing a lot in linux lately and was working on a smali syntax highlighting file for vim, but vierito5 posted a comment with a link to Jon Larimer, who beat me to it. here's the link:
http://codetastrophe.com/smali.vim
https://sites.google.com/site/lohanplus/files/smali.vim (mirror)

it's vim so there are 20 different ways to get it working. google around if this doesn't work, i will be no help. here is how i did it:

mkdir ~/.vim
echo au BufRead,BufNewFile *.smali set filetype=smali >> ~/.vim/filetype.vim
mkdir ~/.vim/syntax
cp smali.vim ~/.vim/syntax
