You can change the apps, but you have to release them on custom firmware: you can't take a firmware distributed app and distribute it to users via the android market, for example. So basically: this question isn't for this list, you can to go http://source.android.com to find a more appropriate list. kris -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
