How android sign your app


android APK employed the same signature method just as java jar package did.

there are two ways of sign your app.

1. Use tools in java package 


a. make your own keystore

keytool -genkey -v -keystore my-release-key.keystore -alias zpcat_key -keyalg RSA -keysize 2048 -validity 10000

b. sign your apk 

jarsigner -verbose -keystore my-release-key.keystore MainMenuView_unsign.apk zpcat_key

c. align your apk

zipalign -v 4 MainMenuView_unsign.apk MainMenuView.apk

2. Use android's private tools


a. make key/cert pair by android's private tools

development/tools/make_key: android tool to make key/cert pair

b. signing apk with key/cert pair:

java -jar SignApk.jar platform.x509.pem platform.pk8 Application.apk Application_signed.apk

3 compare the two methods -- the java keystore file .VS. key/cert pair of android (pk8 key file and x509.pem cert file)

they are the same stuff. you can import the key/cert pair into your java keystore file by:

keytool-importkeypair -k ~/.android/debug.keystore -p android -pk8 platform.pk8 -cert platform.x509.pem -alias platform
keytool-importkeypair is a opensource tools, which can get from https://github.com/getfatday/keytool-importkeypair

How Bluetooth LE works? -- Link Layer

How Bluetooth LE works? - Link layer Table of Contents 1 Bluetooth LE system architecture 2 Bluetooth LE Physical layer 3 Bluetooth LE Link Layer states 4 Bluetooth LE Link Layer packets 1 Bluetooth LE system architecture This is the first post and hopefully a series of upcoming postings about Bluetooth Low Energy. Above figure is the protocol stack of a whole Bluetooth LE system. The Bluetooth LE is one part of Bluetooth v4.0 specification, it was designed not to pursue high transmission speed but for lower energy consumption. So the Bluetooth LE products can be powered by a button-cell battery for years. How did it do that? This article is a review of Robin Heydon's excellent book – Bluetooth Low Energy, the developer's handbook. Bluetooth LE is completely redesigned of classic Bluetooth protocol, It seems that both the Bluetooth LE and classic Bluetooth has the same architecture from above figure, but actually they are so different inside, an...

Bluedroid stack in android

Bluedroid stack in android Table of Contents Bluetooth stack in android Bluedroid .VS. Bluez Porting guide of Bluedroid stack 1 Bluetooth stack in android From Android 4.2, google use Bluedroid stack as its default Bluetooth host stack, before android 4.2, its default Bluetooth host stack was Bluez, which is also the Linux distribution's default stack. So why google changed its Bluetooth stack? The reason is maybe that Bluez stack was designed for the desktop environment, so in order to port Bluez into android, android must solve some dependency issues, like porting Dbus, Linux desktop's default IPC, into android. So there are at least five processes to power Bluetooth before android 4.2, they are systems, Bluetooth APP, Bluez, hciattach, and Dbus. The damn thing is that there are bugs between them, so Bluetooth stack is the weakest part in the android system before android 4.2, yeah, it is the usual reason that android system corrupted. So, what's t...

Network programming in elisp

  Network API in elisp Table of Contents 1 Introduction 2 A example 3 Http server implemented by elisp 1 Introduction Emacs is not just an editor, Yes, that's true. Emacs lisp can do network connection programming by its network API. But there is something difference with other kinds of programming language. First, elisp do not support multi-thread, pretty cool, huh!! Yeh, Multi-threads programming is a horrible venture for you, right! Second, There is no socket similarly conception in elisp, and elisp provide network programming ability as processes. Elisp can open a network connection by function – open-network-stream .  It can make network connection server listen a special port by function - make-network-process . Both of those function return a process object. Then you can communicate with the process by process's API. 2 A example I write a snippet code to figure out How to use it. ( require ' cl ) ( defvar my-network-client-b...
