cutthecord

Discord Android app patches.

Automatically patched binaries are available on distok.a3.pm/cutthecord.

Toolchain setup

Get apktool
Get a keystore, see here, step 1.
Get 72x72 copies of latest version of mutant standard emojis with codepoints. I have a zip here.
Extract the emojis you got somewhere.
Clone this repo somewhere, edit emojireplace.py and set the extracted_mutstd_path folder to the folder you just extracted emojis to.

Get a Discord apk (cough aptoide).
Extract it with apktool (apktool d <apk path>)
Get all the necessary patches for that version. Necessary patches are not available for all versions and are only required to get some versions to pack together correctly.
Get optional patches you want for your version. If the patch you want isn't available for your version, you'll have to port them yourself.
Apply the patches (patch -p1 < <patch name>).
Edit emojireplace.py to point to extracted discord folder (extracted_discord_path), and apply emoji patches (python3 emojireplace.py)
Build the new APK (apktool b com.discord-831)
Sign the new APK (jarsigner -keystore <keystore path> <foldername>/dist/<foldername>.apk <alias>)
Get your new APK from <foldername>/dist/<foldername>.apk, install and enjoy!
