- Introduction
- Hello, I am r3pwn and today, I guess, I will begin to teach you mobile source apps modification. Don't worry, it only consists of a few steps really.
- Picking a file
- First you start with picking a file you want to modify. Then, extract it from your app's obb file.
- What to do?
- Well, now, you make your changes to the file and put it under "/data/data/com.nvidia.valvesoftware.portal/files" or "/data/data/com.nvidia.valvesoftware.halflife2/files", depending on which game you own. You can find my modified files for Portal here and my modified files for Half-Life 2 here. For my Portal files, extract the zip to the "portal" folder in Portal's app files. For my HL2 files, extract the zip to the "hl2" folder in HL2's app files.
- What do we do next?
- Now it's time for the final step. Permissions changing. Hook up your SHIELD via adb or open a Terminal Emulator and issue the following commands (Please note that "yourgamefiles" is /data/data/com.nvidia.valvesoftware.portal/files is you applied the mod to Portal or /data/data/com.nvidia.valvesoftware.halflife2/files if you applied the mod to Half-Life 2):
- su
- cd yourgamefiles
- ls -na
- After that, you need to look for the 5 digit number that should appear twice on most items. Let's call that our "5dn" (stands for 5 digit number). Then issue the following commands:
- chown 5dn *
- chown 5dn */*
- chown 5dn */*/*
- chown 5dn */*/*/*
- chown 5dn */*/*/*/*
- chown 5dn */*/*/*/*/*
- chgrp 5dn *
- chgrp 5dn */*
- chgrp 5dn */*/*
- chgrp 5dn */*/*/*
- chgrp 5dn */*/*/*/*
- chgrp 5dn */*/*/*/*/*
- (It's okay if one or more of those commands gives an error of "No such file or directory".)
- After that, your permissions should be fixed. Start up the game and see if anything looks/functions any different!
- Happy Modding!

- P.S. If this guide was too complicated for you OR you didn't understand it OR it didn't work for you, don't worry. I am making an automated patcher application as we speak. :)
