Nougat ZipException
S7 edge, Nougat 7.0
As seen in #302
@zhuowei, I'd like to work with you on the project, is it possible?
I think that no. This is closed source. Same issue here but it is related to the new storage framework used in Android N. This app is not yet upgraded to that API.
Can you tell me the coding languages you know? I'm planning to decompile the app and to see what I can do to test it (unfortunately it will be just for myself as it is illegal to redistribute this app but I'll see what I can do).
I decompiled it an hour ago but I found some lib (.so file) which I only seen with the hex editor, it's 6KB and doesn't seem to be part of the execution
Anyway I know Java, PHP, HTML, JS, CSS, SQL and maybe something else (which I can't remember right now)
That's cool. :D I think there isn't anything important in the .so files but there is something in the Storage access classes. Google made some modifications to the Storage Access Framework which is just a pain for Devs. I will try to see if there is any workaround.
Here is the logcat I've taken: ---- 14 apr. 2017 18:28:31 ----

And that's just one error, I don't really know what's happening, maybe you used another decompiler, do you mind sharing the src?
Which tool did you used to decompile the apk file? A JadX based one? I ask this because I like the way the app was decompiled.
@minealex2244 I used dex2jar for the jar and jd-gui for the .java files But what are you talking about, the colors?
I know a lot of tools to decompile apks but I see that your apk was decompiled very good. I don't mean the IDE but it is cool too. Now that I have some free time I'll try to decompile it to see what's inside.
How has the app decompiled for you guys? I've written in java for a long time and I've had the idea to decompile it and see if I can fix it (it should be simple), but I'm not sure if it'll even decompile correctly.
@2F4Uof2b2t Decompilers won't give recompilable code. Disassemblers may work, but please don't.
@zhuowei you should provide a way to fix these issues. The app is unusable right now.
@khanhduytran0 Could you please release instructions in how to do this? Or even better Upload the APK?
@khanhduytran0 could you elaborate, any help would be great as I've been at this for over a year ;-;
@khanhduytran0 This doesn't look like Boardwalk 1.9 - it's using the regular Android ART runtime, not Boardwalk 1.9's (failed) attempt to use a different runtime. Also, pretty sure distributing Minecraft JARs pre-dexed in the APK breaks the Minecraft license.
Why gl4es instead of glShim? Does it work better? I might switch to it for Boardwalk 2.
Edit: ... ok gl4es isn't used anywhere. Why is it included then?
I haven't tried this: how well does it run on newer phones?
Edit: why does this rip out Boardwalk's Minecraft login code? Minecraft still uses the same authentication system.
Edit: I see a button for "Mods manager (Forge)" in your app, but I don't think it works? Your app doesn't convert files from Java to Android dex at all, so no mods would/could ever load. Adding mod support in Boardwalk would require a rewrite (which is why 2.0 is taking so long); I'll be interested to see how you would get it working.
I should probably yell at you for using Boardwalk code without permission, (and I will need to ask you to take this down eventually), but for now, good work.
It is working pretty well on newer devices. I have a Samsung Galaxy S9 and I'm getting 30+ fps. Sometimes I'm getting 60 fps with just view bobbing enabled and with chunks rendering set to 5. Water is causing lag because of the animation. Optifine would fix everything. Good work @khanhduytran0 👍🏻
@khanhduytran0 I have used 1.7.10. I'm not sure about Optifine API. I'll search for it. Edit: It looks like Optifine is just a patched Minecraft jar file.
@khanhduytran0 where is the download for your app? I would love to try it on my galaxy s9
It works.... it runs minecraft just as well as my 4gb computer XD....(using this on galaxy s9)
@zhuowei I feel like if you made Boardwalk an open source project that it would be more successful if the community could contribute to the project with pull requests. For example @khanhduytran0 got it running on Android 7 and up and it runs very smooth (60fps on my GS9)
You should seriously considering publishing the sources under an open source license like the GPL3 and accepting pr's.
