Hey guys,
I really want to make a theme for slades rom but i just dont get how to make a flashable update.zip. Additionaly the new CWM requires edify-scripting -.- and here my update-zip-packager doesn't work anymore..for xrecovery it was just awesome..i already tried some amend2edify-converter, but that did not work either
So my question is, how can i make (or edit) an update.zip which can be flashed with the new CWM 3?
Thanks in advance,
nitro
i faced a similar situation today itslelf..n was ultimately forced to download the cwm version of slade's rom v5..
well if u just want to edit and replace apps n stuff, that can just b done in the sam way as any xrecovery rom...i used winrar to add n remove stuff from the rom n it works gr8
okay, thats an idea..but i want to make a theme..which means a flashable update.zip-file..does somebody know with what programm i can make such update.zips?
@ slade: how do you create your update.zips, e.g. the hotfixes with some single files?
Why don't you take a CWM package an unpack it via winrar/any other software? I'm quite sure there is an absolutely common folder structure following more or less the system folder structure and maybe there is one or there are more XML files in order to change some things in source files (e.g. change values in those *.hw files or whatever they are called) and to tell CWM what to do exactly.
As soon as you're done you simply zip it again (watch the folder structure).
***EDIT***
Ok, forget what I just posted. Had a look at one of slades zips and it's a little bit more than just an XML. Might not be smart to change stuff within that META-INF folder without knowing what you do.

Hi guys,
I tried flashing this keyboard to my CM7.0.3 ROM earlier today, unfortunately, it didn't really go too well:

Upon rebooting my Legend having flashed the zip file, all I see is continuous Force Closes for the keyboard. Specifically: process com.android.inputmethod.latin
This happens every 10 secs or so, and there is definitely no keyboard present either.
So the question is, how can I revert back to the 'stock' keyboard? Yes, I can restore my Nandroid backup however, does anyone have a link to the 'stock' keyboard that I can flash? Or any keyboard that will work??
Thanks!!
p.s. For what it's worth, the BlueBuzzer theme works great on the Legend.
First of all, have u tried changing keyboard by longpressing any textbox and selecting "Change input method". IF however u replaced the keyboard with the new one u'll have to use any of following methods:
method 1:
unzip the 7.0.3 rom and take the LatinIME.apk and push it to you /system/apps (make sure system is mounted and not read-only)
(If u need, i can add it as attachment)
EDIT: Apparently "libjni_latinime.so" is also modified, at least it's in the zip. Same as the apk, but push to /system/lib.
Method 2:
Download any other keyboard from market and Change Input method to the newly installed keyboard. Now it'll be hard to enter your searchquery without keyboard, so just use the market.android.com website and the install will be pushed to your device.
Method 3:
Well, it's maybe not the best way, but easy for sure, just reinstall 7.0.3 without clearing anything. So just "update" your rom, with the same version.
It'll put your keyboard back to how it should be.
If u wanna use this method i hope u didn't change too many system files ^^
Hope it works.
Grts,
BartAertgeerts
Thanks, I ended up restoring my Nandroid backup which was taken just before I attempted to flash the keyboard.
Hi guys,
I'm turning to Resurrection Remix from Stock ROM, but I misses some of the stock apps. So before I moved to another ROM i have all the APKs and ODEXs ready. But after I build the ZIP with all the necessary directory and the updater-script file build using notepad++, CWM won't install it?
Any solutions? Thanks a million.

In the first folder data, are ur apps like apk file.
In the folder meta inf are 2 file's.
Update binary and updater script.
In updater script is the script u can edit for ur cwm install routine.
I edited the script for the apk that not installed.
That's my way.
Galaxy S2 I9100G with miui and Team Win Recovery Project 2.2 [Experimental] Port
This is the ICS like Phone.apk.
I need a tester who has a Galaxy 5 to test this and report to me through PM.
Please.
Just flash it through CWM.
hi..
please 2 things: can you provide a screenshot of what it should like to?
and I think you should also provide a CWM file to revert to standard phone.apk (stock or Cyano roms)
Here is what is written at the original thread:
Many of you who have tested ICS, would have definetely liked the ICS dialer.
Well, Guess what? It's now available for CM7 too!!
Phone.Apk is attached.
Please Follow the Instructions well.
UPDATE: Users are having some problems using this. It is still in alpha mode. Still modding it to erase all problems. Support Developer or Tester would be nice. PM me if you would like to be involved. To revert back, use the phone.apk from this post : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=29069305&postcount=22. It can be installed using the terminal method or just copying it to system\app in Airplane Mod.
Installation Procedure:
Copy the file in the root directory on your sd card.
Rename the file to Phone.apk
turn on airplane mode.
Make sure ur system partition is set to R/W mode
open terminal from your phone.
type the following commands, one by one.
su
cp /sdcard/Phone.apk /system/app
chmod 644 /system/app/Phone.apk
reboot
Now, when you place a call or receive one, You will have the ics like dialer.
NOTE : You need to enable in-call touch UI. To enable, go to Settings > Call Settings > enable In-call touch UI.

get Android Commander program, connect your phone and start the program.
From your original ROM (hybrom I suppose), take systemUI.apk and copy it to /system/app
It'll overwrite automatically.
Simple as that. You'd have to be crazy to re-flash ROM or even FW over this.

Have you been running a custom rom and seem to be missing the old live wallpapers? If yes then I have the solution to your problems! I have extracted the unmodified APKs from the stock rom and uploaded them to my Drive. It should work on any Android version equal or above ICS.

Installation Instructions:

5) Hit the hay
I will also be taking requests for different custom roms. I will upload tomorrow wallpapers from Android 4.0.4 from our device. Though all may not be included, you can ensure that the files are safe and not malware.
EDIT: Wrong forum. Mods, can you please move the topic to Galaxy Tab 10.1 Themes and Apps
How do I install this app as a system app?
Method 1
1) Download and install a file manager that can ask for root access
2) Rename the file according to the selection below
a) Holo Spiral = com.android.wallpaper.holospiral-1.apk
b) Aurora2 = com.hu1.wallpaper.aurora2WXGATAB-1.apk
c) Blue Sea = com.hu1.wallpaper.bluesea-1.apk
3) Copy/move the following files to /system/app
4) Set permission to r-w-rr
Method 2
1) Make sure you have the app/s installed
2) Install Titanium Backup and Titanium Backup Pro
3) Select the selected app and long press (maybe?) and select convert to system app
I've really missed that blue bubbles wallpaper. I like the old look better than the new one that's on my sister's note 2. The I9000 froyo stock apk doesn't work very well. Thank you for posting.
Forgot that I've posted this thread and also forgot to ask the mods to move it. Anyways, I'll be adding some Android KitKat wallpapers from several ROMs in and out of our device.
