11/17/08: Version 0.31 of hgToday
Bugfix
Added hgColors 0.3 config file in zip archive. This makes it possible to change the font size of the list, and the height of the individual list items.
11/10/08: Version 0.3 of hgToday
Updated to work with the latest version of Christec's framework
Rewritten list control (loosely based on KListControl)
Removed buttons on top, menus included in popup menu, moving to next/previous day through finger movement.
New popup menu is now scrollable with finger.
New datepicker, more fingerfriendly.
Skinning with bitmaps has been removed in order to reduce memory usage.
Colors can still be changed.
9/11/08: Version 0.2
Added the program hgColors to make it possible to customize all colors.
Added the option of seeing all appointments and all tasks together.
Bugfix for the calendar dialog (got stuck on the screen sometimes).
9/5/08:
Added hgAgenda to the files below. This is the standalone full screen version of hgToday. It also has some more images for skinning.
Also added some more screenshots.
Earlier:
hgToday
This is a small fingerfriendly plugin I've put together for my todayscreen. I use it as one of my views in my Homescreen++ setup (prev. BatteryStatus). It can also be used as a regular today plugin.
hgToday will show you the current appointments and all tasks not completed with a due date on or before today, or with a start date on or before today (i.e. all tasks that should be worked on).
The list can be scrolled with a finger.
If doubleclicked, it will mark the item completed.
To view the task, hold the finger long enough for item to be selected and popupmenu to show, tapping view will take you to the default calendar/task application for editing and viewing.
Scroll left or right for next/previous day.
Skinning
This can be done with hgColors. Just click on the various items, choose save, and restart hgToday.
Both list height and item height can be changed.
Font size can also be changed, although if too large, the day will be mixed with the description.
The file hgColors must be in the same directory as hgToday or hgAgenda.
Future plans:
More fingerfriendly editing, entering new items.
Update hgAgenda to 0.3.
+??
To install hgAgenda:
Just unzip the files to any directory - can be used on a storage card too.
To install hgToday:
Must be installed to main memory.
1) Uninstall previous version of "ChrisTec Managed Today Screen Item Framework" and hgToday.
2) Unzip and install the "ChrisTec Managed Today Screen Item Framework" (see separate copyright notice).
3) Copy hgToday.dll to the same directory where the ChrisTec Framework is installed (normally "Program Files\Managed Today Screen Framework").
4) Go into settings, Today, Items: and make sure the "Managed Items" is checked.
Thanks to dosfan for his KListControl (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=333124)
I don't take any responsibility for the problems this program might cause on your device, but it seems to work for me on a smartphone running Microsoft Mobile 6.
I value comments, but can't promise anything,.
Hope it can be useful for other people.
Great software calendar .. thank you veru much for this release
any "working" screenshot please ?
Im not able to get working on Sprint Touch 6.1. I had the HGplugin showing in the settings/home/items. I then closed out and went back in and its gone. I have tried to reinstall a few times with no luck.
Screenshots
I'm sorry, but I didn't know that you had to have a url to post a screenshot. Therefore the small bmp file.

Sorry about your problems.
Did you try going into the registry to see that the height is correct? Do you have other plugins? Can you run the file hgToday.exe directly? Can you try to put a checkmark in the today settings for Managed items?
It doesn't work. The item doesn't appear in settings/home/items. I tried to open the executable and I get an error: Null reference exception.

updated plugin
It seems my app was based on an early version of "ChrisTec Managed Today Screen Item Framework".
So I've attached that version in my first post. That should the program run. I have had it on my device for about a month now.
However, I probably should upgrade my app to take advantage of the newer version of the framework. The reason I didn't do that in the first place, was because it used an exe file that could be run by itself. The newer version requires a dll file.
It works good on my Kaiser - thanks.

Did you see post #8?
It's quite similar to the gslide file explorer (we use the same list control), except hgToday doesn't have to be full screen.
I'm also hoping to release a non-plugin version later today.
Feedback: ))
the viewing options of all appointment and all tasks and so on are wonderful. also the option to change the height..
the scrolling thing is VERY important and useful..
the gray background is heavy on the eyes... i'd make it compatible with the tsk.. that is, transparent.
an option to view all appointments+all tasks is important in my eyes... for day to day use..
thank you so much.. i'm using your thing instead of Calendar+ now
Thanks!

The color scheme is based on the system colors, i.e. the list takes it's color from the active caption color. I'm planning skinning in a future version. As for now, in order to have a different background when there is no selection, you can add an image file called noselect.png (similar to the select.png file) and the program will show that for the list items, instead of the current background. However, the app will use a lot more resources that way. That's why I'd like to make some configuration file to store colors and other stuff.

Added hgAgenda, the full screen standalone version of hgToday.
This can be run as a separate program.
Also included some more screenshots.
See first post.
I should probably do some version numbering. Any ideas?

With the way the program is written, that would not be possible. What can be done, is to have all the appointments first and then all the tasks, but I assume you mean you want it sorted by date. To accomplish that, I have to do a complete rewrite of the program.
Right now I am working on a settings app so that all colors can be easily configured by the user.

New version with all appointments and all tasks on one screen.
Also skinning via separate program.
See more details in first post.
** version 5.3 available now! **
Information:
You no longer need to uninstall previous version(s) before installing the latest version!
If you have AppToDate you can use that to update the application to the latest version!
This requires .NET compact flash 3.5!
This supports Windows Mobile 6, 6.1 and 6.5.
Supported resolutions are 240x320, 320x320, 240x400, 480x640 and 480x800 in both portrait and landscape modes.
Downloads are in post 2 or you can use AppToDate to update it.
If you create your own language files please upload them to this thread so I can include them with the application!
Upcoming:
Add language support for configuration utility and save/open/browse dialogs. Currently only the main application supports alternate languages.
Possibly adding price information option per item (this would toggle-able by a setting).
Possibly adding finger gesture recognition for different things.
Possibly adding SMS support.
Possibly adding Today plugin.
Possibly add D-pad support.
Version 5.3:
New features:
Shopping Cart Companion - You can use this tiny application to easily create and manage lists (both standard and master lists) from your PC and transfer them directly to your device.
Fixes:
Optimized code greatly for larger lists. Opening a large list, e.g. 40 items per tab over 3 tabs opens in 5 seconds instead of 30. This has a huge impact on older / slower devices.
Version 5.2:
New features:
Shopping lists now have the typical elastic rebound effect when a list is scrolled beyond the beginning or end of a list.
Fixes:
The position of a shopping list no longer automatically scrolls to the top of the list if you click an entry that is below the "first page" of the list.
Version 5.1:
New features:
Save As menu option for new lists.
New setting to save a new list automatically.
New option under Settings/General/SIP. Show automatically when entering: Enabled, Enabled in Portrait Only, Disabled.
Fixes:
Exporting all marked items of a master list to a regular list doesn't work when using "mark all items".
Exiting from the master list without saving or anything says that the user tried to save the masterlist as a regular list.
Various errors with save dialogs not appearing and files not being saved.
Version 5.0:
NOTE: You will have to uninstall the previous version because of the name change! Otherwise you will have both applications installed!
New features:
Landscape for all supported resolutions. This is currently only within the main application screen, not the settings screen, save/open screens, etc.
New initial GUI upon start of application (enabled or disabled by a setting)- a "home" screen with more intuitive quick-launch buttons to access application features.
New option on long-press-hold over an item - copy item text to input field.
Language files included have been updated with the new entry above and need to be translated. When you do, please upload them to this thread.
A new setting to prompt a user to overwrite an existing saved cart rather than just doing it.
Application will be renamed to "Digicast Solutions' Shopping Cart" from "cRaCKwHoRe's Shopping Cart"
Fixes:
Intermittent application errors / crashes when deleting / duplicating items / opening and closing SIP.
Application not remembering last opened list.
Saving a list sometimes doesn't actually save it. This is fixed.
I am trying to prevent where a list of items scrolls back to the top if you are scrolled down and click an item.
Version 4.2:
Fixes:
Scrolling issue resolved.
Inability to add new categories/tabs resolved.
Resampled and resized images thanks to aiiro.
Version 4.1:
Fixes:
Opening a saved master list would cause an error. This has been fixed.
Installing the latest version of Shopping Cart will no longer overwrite your customized application settings with the default ones. They are now saved between versions.
Adjusted size of item container on different resolutions so that all items can be seen completely when you have a larger list.
Other:
Still trying to duplicate the "scrolling" issue affecting some users so that I can fix it...
Version 4.0:
New features:
Duplicate item (context item)
Rename item (context item)
Move item up/down (context item)
Check / uncheck item (context item)
Rename tab (context item)
Rename tab (menu item)
Add tab (menu item)
Delete all items (menu item)
Sort list (menu items)
Addition of master list functionality
Addition of Help screen
Addition of AppToDate support
Changed application installation location and registry location to "Shopping Cart" instead of "Shopping Cart v x.x" for compatibility with Sashimi and AppToDate
New setting for prompting user to clear cart
New setting to disable single-clicking an item to check/uncheck it. Disabling it requires a tap+hold and select from a context menu to check/uncheck an item.
Fixes:
Application now shifts/resizes when SIP is displayed so you can see everything (may add a setting for this, what do you guys think?)
Lots of new language items so language files will have to be edited
Tweaked some code and fixed a few memory leaks to make application faster overall
Saved lists are now automatically saved as Unicode files to preserve special characters.
Version 3.1:
New features:
Multiple resolution support - now currently 480x800, 480x640, 320x320, 240x400, 240x320. I only have a 480x800 device but on my emulators everything looks fine on the other resolutions. Let me know what you find!
Included updated/new language files posted to thread into cab file.
Fixes:
Saved cart being opened in reverse.
Version 3.0:
New features:
Multiple resolution support - currently 480x800, 320x320, 240x320. More coming...
Functionality to remove an entry altogether.
Tabbed cart lists to separate shopping carts for different stores.
Custom/enhanced save/open/browse dialogs. Default Windows Mobile ones are awful.
Context menus.
New configuration utility to change application settings, rather than modifying the registry.
Numerous new user-configurable settings and options via configuration utility.
Saving a list now retains the marked/unmarked status of a list when it is saved and re-imported.
New menu item(s) to check / uncheck all items in the cart list at once.
Fixes:
Slow scrolling issue.
Rearrange status and item list columns so longer items don't display over or behind the status checkbox.
Unicode character display issues with language files.
Labels no longer cut off in different languages.
Other:
Changed checked-item image to green checkmark to match "Manila" styling.
There are 15 language files now included, thanks to all the contributors for making the changes from the previous version. Old language files are not compatible with this release and will cause an issue when the application loads if you try to use one.
Had to temporarily remove color and strikethrough options for compatibility. Will try to add this back in for next release.
Version 2.1:
Fix startup issue for alternate language roms.
Remove scrollbars but still allow scrolling, to be more like other touch-sensitive scrolling applications.
Ability to customize the color of checked / unchecked items if MultiColorFonts is enabled.
Multiple language support.
Moved application settings into registry rather than .xml file.
Downloads
The files are below. Shopping Cart Companion needs to be extracted. It requires .NET 3.5 framework on your computer.
Also, here is a link to all the .NET 3.5 compact framework installation files.
You specifically need to have:
NETCFv35.wm.armv4i.cab
NETCFv35.Messages.XX.wm.cab (where XX indicates your phone's language)
Hi thanks, that's really cool. I will use it as a to do list (I had raised this question a while back). It's not quite as good as getting it as a front page tab, but it will suit me fine. Cheers!
Fantastic, thank you.
Just last week I was thinking that it would be better to have a program that I could easy mark off what I have got. Now it is here. Cool
Thanks
Looks good...thanks!
Looking mighty fine crack . Lol @ forgetting cab file in first post.

great work buddy.
Any one has ried on qvga?
Hey just tried this and on QVGA and it works but it seems that the spacing is slightly out compared to yours on the WVGA? Have a look
Apart from that all seems good!
great work, thanks!
cRaCKwHoRe said:
A while back I wrote a very basic utility where I could write a shopping list and use it on my phone to go shopping with rather than taking a piece of paper and a pen with me. I got tired of forgetting stuff LOL! I use it every time I go to the store. I just thought I would share it with you all.
You can manually type in items to add to the shopping list or you can type up a list in Notepad or something similar. If you want to import a list in the application just save the file as a text file with each entry separated by a carriage return (new line / Enter) and copy it to your device. Then, in the application click File and Open and browse to where you copied the .txt file.
When you tap an item (click it) it toggles strikethrough text style, in effect marking it as found
Attached are a few screenies.
I'm open to suggestions as far as modification and such. It is designed for and works for the Touch HD as far as resolution is concerned. I don't know about other devices as I haven't tested it on any as I have no others.
Also, it requires .NET compact flash 3.5.

You mean the home screen being where it shows the clock, your missed calls, voicemails, calendar events, etc. right? If so, I wasn't aware things could be added to that. If they can I could look into it.

Hi,
I am new to android development so sorry if this question has a really obvious answer. I am hoping to make a game for the platform but to start with I have just tried to make a basic layout of 4 buttons to move in different directions and then have a background and an image in front which will be my sprite and move across the screen depending on what button is pressed.
At the moment I have created two views. One via the main xml document and the other through the java code itself. The java code one contains the background and image to be drawn and the main.xml contains the buttons.
At the moment I have my code set up like this:
this.setContentView(R.layout.main); <<<<<<<<<< xml
this.setContentView(this.myTestView); <<<<<<<<<<<<<< java
I am aware that I am basically setting one and then setting the other over the top of it and this means that only one of these views will appear. Does anyone know of a way I can use these views in conjunction so that both the images frm the java file and the layout from the xml can both be used?
Cheers for any help.
ExO
As far as I know you cannot do this. By calling setContentView you are overwriting the object which held the content previously.
Once the view is set you can add items in code after this call.
Why do you not have all the elements in the xml?
aw ok, i wasnt sure if it was possible or not. The reason I did it like this was just because I'm still learning to use both languages. Aswell as that I am using droiddraw to generate my xml and couldnt see an option within that to add images etc. Cheers for the reply .
Rearranging the Manila Home Screen
What do I need to know?
Manila uses few types of files: qtc, xml, mode9 and lua. First one is for graphics, second usually for different languages (although not only) and the two last ones are the ones we are interested in. Mode9 files contain information on position, visibility and other properties of almost every element on Manila tabs. Lua files contain different functions, used for animations, updating info and so on.
For editing the Home Screen we need the mode9 file - 1c684cd8_manila and the lua script - 25d04412_manila. You can find these files (from each Manila, starting from 1.0 and ending on 2.5) on this forum.
What tools do I need?
Editing mode9 files is quiet easy. You just have to run m9editor, open the file, make the changes you want and save it. Changing stuff in lua scripts is a bit more complicated, as you have to decompile it. Shorter scripts are easily decompilated by luadec, but some longer ones require us to correct errors. Fortunately, the lua script we have to change is easily decompilated (though there can be a problem with the if condition). To do this follow these points:
- copy luadec.exe and luac.exe to the folder you where you have the lua script (let's say it's c:\compacthome\mod\)
- press Windows Logo + R (or Start > Run) and type cmd
- go to the folder containing the lua script (in this case it's cd \compacthome\mod\)
- type luadec script_name > script_name.txt - where script_name is the script you want to decompile (for example 25d04412_manila) and script_name.txt is the name of the output file, which we will edit
- in case of errors you have to correct them (look for the lua decompiling tutorial by sztupy)
- once you have the script decompiled you don't need to do it again.
- open the output file and change whatever you want
- to compile the file just type luac -o script_name script_name.txt, where script_name is the file we want to have the script_name.txt compiled
What can I change?
When you open the mode9 file we want to edit, expand the tree and you'll see many sections called 'Object'. Below them there are few lines called 'Property'. What you can easily change is:
- Position - just change the value of X and Y (center position (X=0, Y=0) and axis are different for most of the objects - you have to test this)
- Visibility - True or False (sometimes you may have to change the size of a image to 0x0, so that it won't show never)
- Font
- Font Size
- Color of text in RGB format - if Property is not available, add it
In the 25d04412_manila script you can change positions of many objects in both portrait and landscape mode.
- TabsLeft - left part of the clock (animated)
- TabsRight - right part of the clock (animated)
- clock_tabs - background of the clock (pile of tabs)
- alarm_clock - alarm info and date
- NotifiCamera3D - notifications & appointments
- NotificationShiftY - shifting of appointments when changing to small clock
To change the position just modify the first two parameters of Vector3(X, Y, Z) - both CameraPosition.value and LookAtPosition.value.
How to save and test the changes in a fast way?
Open a cab creator (for example WinCE Cab Manager) and add the files you changed to /Windows. Save the cab, copy it to your device, install and reboot Manila. You can also copy manually the file, but I prefer the first way, because in case of any problems you can easily uninstall the cab and get the default Home Screen.
How to get the Home Screen working with Background4AllTabs?
Just open the 1c684cd8_manila file by m9editor, look for 'HomeBackground' and delete the whole paragraph which contains it (from <Object>Type="Group" to the next <Object>Type="Group").

If you have any suggestions, propositions or ideas, please write them in this thread, I'll try to complete this tutorial, so it will be useful for everyone. Thanks!
i cannot come up with suggestions, but that tutorial is very nice on your side!
Although not actually about the home screen arrangement. I do think we need the information on how to patch the EXE for weather and especially non-HTC devices to be made public. The few people that know how to do it don't seem to want to SHARE that knowledge, which is damned frustrating!
Kamill, what an excellent idea. I'm looking forward to your tutorial. I wonder will it be for Manila 2.0?
Here are some ideas:
Change touch flo colour
Appointments for at least one week
Linking big clock with another application (similar to Ssmaho)
Changing soft keys names/applications
Changing font sizes/types
Changing date formats on appointments
I hope this doesn't make it too difficult (I think the second one is though for some Manila versions!)
UPDATE in first post - an early version of the mini-tutorial.
FloatingFatMan, unfortunately I don't know how to do it...
mitsi, thanks, I'll work on that.
Kamill, My question is what needs to be changed to get appointments in dates after tomorrow to appear? Do I need to edit both the mode9 and the lua script? Or is it just one of those? I'm willing to get my hands dirty to fix it.
The easiest way is to get the files from hallatore's mod for Manila 2.0 and compare them to the original. There are mainly 3 differences, you'll find them for sure. AFAIR all you have to change is in one script, you have to add an option to display the date, change the place from where appointments are being taken (poomappointments(TAB_Calendar) instead of poomappointments(TAB_Home)) and change the number of appointments in the for loop.
Hmm. Well I changed the TAB_Calendar and added the option to to display date. Those were easy. Finding the loop is harder. I forced A loop to go 5 times and I got 5 calendar events, but the ones past tomorrow were the default ones in the mode9 ("Review design comp (Dan's office)"). I did it in the InitializeFullAnimation function just below this if statement:
Code:
if l_15_15 > 5 then
l_15_15 = 5
end
So those items are not being updated from the calendar. Any ideas? Am I looking in the wrong loop?
Anyway you can post hallatore's mod de-compiled? I think I have the original, but when I use m9editor the lua has a lot of decompiled errors.
Here you go. Are you doing this on the Manila 2.1? I tried so many things to get this working, but with no success
how to change home tab
Hi, I have read all the posts here and in some other threads related, and I'm still confused
I did try to install the cabs posted, and it totally messed my home tab, so I had to hard reset every time (because uninstalling didn't fix it up).
All I want to have is this:
1. move the alarm notification on the upper-right corner (to cover or remove the ATT logo)
2. make the Call History to auto-hide if there is no missed call (or to delete it, if it is easier)
3. have more appointments visible (2-3) with the big clock, and to be able to flip the clock upwards in order to have even more appointments visible
4. when I click on the appointment, to open the Calendar (this is already possible, and I'd like to remain this way)
I apologize if this is a silly question: is this possible to be done only by editing some manila files, and if so, which ones and what should I modify?
I opened some manila files (e.g. 1c684cd8_manila) using notepad and m9editor.exe, and, honestly, I had no clue as to what should I do
I am sure that you guys know this stuff already, and it is very easy for you. If it's not complicated to explain it to me, please help me!
thank you very much

1. move the alarm notification on the upper-right corner (to cover or remove the ATT logo)
2. make the Call History to auto-hide if there is no missed call (or to delete it, if it is easier)
3. have more appointments visible (2-3) with the big clock, and to be able to flip the clock upwards in order to have even more appointments visible
4. when I click on the appointment, to open the Calendar (this is already possible, and I'd like to remain this way)
I apologize if this is a silly question: is this possible to be done only by editing some manila files, and if so, which ones and what should I modify?
I opened some manila files (e.g. 1c684cd8_manila) using notepad and m9editor.exe, and, honestly, I had no clue as to what should I do
I am sure that you guys know this stuff already, and it is very easy for you. If it's not complicated to explain it to me, please help me!
thank you very much

Here is the solution to all 4 requests, but it is for Manila 2.0, so be careful. Back-up first just in case. Your screen will then look similar to the one shown.
Been trying...
I've been trying for some time now to get more than today's and tomorrow's appointment's displayed in manila 2.1. I added in the code that Hallatore added (can be found in stupy's lua thread) but there seems to be something limiting the amount of days shown ahead (I hope is not limited by the manila.exe, but I think not).
As additional info, the lua file that use to be embedded in the Home.mode9 isn't any more and is named 53cc1e4f_manila for 2.1 manila and 652ae0f4_manila for 2.5 manila,

This is exactly what I'm after.
Unfortunately, I tried that alternative and, again, it totally messes my TFLO, and I had to hard reset again.
What do you mean by Manila 2.0, is this the TFLO version (in Settings, I see that I have ver. 3.0 build 29946)?
thank you
Change Home tab display
Hi, thank you very much for your interest and trying to give me solutions for my request. It is amazing how people from different corners of the world are connecting and helping each other.
I presume that the file to work with is 1c684cd8_manila.
I opened that with m9editor 3.3.0.1. It's a lot of info there
Could you guys be so kind and give some clues as to what should I look for in order to change:
- the alarm notification - to move it on the upper-right corner
- the carrier logo - to delete it
- the Call History - to delete it
- the Appointments - to have at least 2-3 shown
Also, important clues as to what NOT to touch, in order to
- continue to be able to flip over the big clock
- continue to be able to open the Calendar when click on the appointment
thank you again

Change the X and Y in the 'Position' Property of these objects: AlarmClockOn, AlarmClockOff, AlarmTime.

To the object 'OperatorLogo' add a property called 'Visibility' and change its value to False - if it won't work change it's height to 0 in the 'Size' property.

The same as above, objects: MissedCall_SBar1, MissedCall_SBar2, MissedCallIcon, MissedCallText.

You need to decompile the 53cc1e4f_manila script and find l_15_0.MaxShowCount and change the value of it to the desired one.

If only it was that easy... I've been trying all kinds stuff including what you suggest above. I have decompiled the 53cc1e4f_manila I'll attach it here (it's the one from yozgatg's r1.5),

I mean you CAN change the number of appointments, but in a range of 0 to 6 (5 with big clock). I've tried to get more appointments shown, but I failed...

Hi, Kamill,
Apologize for double posting, I am growing impatient feeling that I am so close to a solution
Regarding the Manila, I checked where you told me to, and I found out that I have TFLO 3D 1.2.37896.1_1813.6. Thank you.
Thank you for your advices, I already tried to remove the logo
- first, I added the <Property> Name=Visibility Value="False" - did not work
- then, I changed the Height=0 - still ATT was there
- lastly, I deleted the entire Object GLESSprite2D (which was above the "OperatorLogo" property - still no result
What do you think I am doing wrong?
Speaking of the number of appointments, I amazingly discovered that I do not have 53cc1e4f_manila file. What do you think that means?
thank you very much, again
Manila 1 is a bit different from 2.0 or 2.1, the 53cc1e4f_manila script is embedded in the 1c684cd8_manila mode9 file (one of those at the beginning).
AFAIK you can replace the logo file with a blank one (don't ask me which file is it, I don't know ). Or you can try to add a 'Position' property and move it out of the sight (but it may come back in some situations) - though I do not guarantee it'll work.
I hope you'll success in modifying the Manila 1 homescreen, I guess there is still a couple of people who use that version of TF3D.
Can't seem to find any info on this that is relevant, just some stuff for much older versions and for WP.
I switched out my stock email app with the XFinity app, as it seems to be more reliable on retrieving email. The only problem I have with it is the icon is too big (touches the top and bottom of the launch bar) and the text is too long/doesn't wrap.
I was able to change the icon to a more standard icon via winrar etc, however I can't find a successful way to fix the text issue. Is this even possible?
Attached a pic, app is in lower right:
Well since you have it in the launcher I think the only way to do this would be to edit an .xml file (no idea which one) inside the .apk. You could always put it on the home screen using Launcher Pro, LP lets you customize the name. Probably not what you want to do, but just throwing it out there
Yeah I'm addicted to GTG though
I found several references to changes to strings.xml to allow wrapping etc and possibly change it entirely (not a lot of info there), but it appears to maybe be for an older version or something as the file isn't located in the apk where everyone says it should be.
Thanks though
