Modyfing GD's APK File

[jakeayy]

So I've been messing around decompiled gd apk files and found out that some of things in .so files are not encoded and you can freely edit them. And my question is how to change from boomlings servers to my servers. Because when i change http://www.boomlings.com to my url and then compile it just crashes after start. thanks for anwser

[ps. ik some of things can be encoded in base64]

The links must be the same length

Oh I see, thanks. I just wanna do things like some people do like custom buttons etc. [for example for social media or idk]

those can either be performed by a texture and url swap (which involves editing the so) or, if you want to add a button, hooking the so file to add your own code (along with adding a texture as well)

i don't think explaining something like this is within the scope of a gd documentation page unless you need help with something like the ccmenuitemspriteextra or the texture format

How can I hook .so file? I mean I know now how to edit server address, probably know how to modify some strings in .so file but how to hook file meaning what programs you recommend or something? It's something new for me but I can try to learn something new :)

That's a whole different step and I would genuinely suggest you do your research on what a SO file even is before doing that. Also you don't decompile an APK, you unpack it and a SO file isn't "encoded", the text you see is the .rotdata, the rest are compiled binaries which represent the assembly of the APK.

Also, I would like to ask you to join the GDP Discord server instead of using GitHub issues on a repository for your questions.
