These instructions apply to both this repository (Moegram) and official Telegram for Android sources.
- Android SDK
- Android NDK
- Android Studio
When on an OS X with Homebrew and Homebrew Cask, it's easy to install them:
brew install android-sdk android-ndk
brew cask install android-studio
DO NOT let Android SDK or Android Studio to install NDK on OS X, or you will end up in a mess of file permissions and build errors. DO install them using Homebrew or any package manager.
git clone
Telegram repository to some path;- Launch Android Studio, select "Import" from welcome page and select that path;
- Config code signing keys if needed;
- If Android Studio needs a Gradle sync, sync it;
- Android Studio will ask if you want to install missing dependencies (maybe once or twice). Install as instructed.
- Fire up a terminal;
cd
toproject_root/TMessagesProj/jni
;- run
ndk-build
.
On build success, you will see the following files:
project_root/TMessagesProj/libs
├── armeabi
│ └── libtmessages.xx.so
├── armeabi-v7a
│ └── libtmessages.xx.so
└── x86
└── libtmessages.xx.so
where xx
is a version number.
Find project_root/TMessagesProj/src/main/java/org/telegram/messenger/BuildVars.java.sample
, copy it to BuildVars.java
in the same folder, and fill all the API keys. That file is self-explainary.
Note:
- If you need a debug version, set
DEBUG_VERSION
to betrue
. This will enable various debugging and logging functions. - Visit https://github.com/DrKLO/Telegram/blob/master/TMessagesProj/src/main/java/org/telegram/messenger/BuildVars.java for the most recent value of
BUILD_VERSION
. Telegram servers use this value to determine if certain type of messages are supported and send a fallback value if not. A wrong value may cause fatals since message types change day by day. - For
HOCKEY_APP_HASH
andHOCKEY_APP_HASH_DEBUG
, you can use any random 32 digit HEX number (for example, the MD5 of any sentence you like) in string format if you don't want to use Hockey. A wrong length will cause fatal error. - Do not change
GCM_SENDER_ID
, or GCM will be completely unusable.
Open project_root/TMessagesProj/build.gradle
, add the following content before last }
:
productFlavors {
some_name {
applicationId "com.example.some_name"
versionCode 123
versionName '0.0.1'
}
}
then modify it on your needs.
Edit all string.xml
in project_root/TMessagesProj/src/main/res/values*
, modify the following line:
<string name="AppName">some_name</string>
Note: it may be faster using Translation Editor of Android Studio.
- Ensure you have built NDK libraries;
- Select Build -> Generate Signed APK… from Android Studio.
Once you see a log entry like APK(s) generated successfully
, find your APK under project_root/TMessagesProj/TMessagesProj-your_flavor_name-release.apk
.
Telegram is a messaging app with a focus on speed and security. It’s superfast, simple and free. This repo contains the official source code for Telegram App for Android.
##Creating your Telegram Application
We welcome all developers to use our API and source code to create applications on our platform. There are several things we require from all developers for the moment.
- Obtain your own api_id for your application.
- Please do not use the name Telegram for your app — or make sure your users understand that it is unofficial.
- Kindly do not use our standard logo (white paper plane in a blue circle) as your app's logo.
- Please study our security guidelines and take good care of your users' data and privacy.
- Please remember to publish your code too in order to comply with the licences.

Beware of using the dev branch and uploading it to any markets, in many cases it not will work as expected.
First of all, take a look at src/main/java/org/telegram/messenger/BuildVars.java and fill it with correct values. Import the root folder into your IDE (tested on Android Studio), then run project.
