Hey guys!
How do I create a stock-based rom? The only thing I found was this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1533740 But I don't know if it applies to Ace too.
Someone can confirm if this works? Also, If I just take a install-script from another ROM it will work? Or I'll need to write my own?
And, last but not least, for themeing, what files I need to change? Framework or tw-framework?
Okay that most things in that tut works some things are not 4 tha ace
scripts u can just add other scripts from roms no need 2 write own (ask permisions ofcorce)
Theme edit systemui.apk in system/app
edit framework-res.apk system/framework
edit twlauncher.apk system/app
and u can edit tw-framework if u wanna (not much 2 theme there)
HOPE I HELPED!!!
GOOD LUCK

I've made my first ROM using your tutorial as basis I need to know if there is something much different between building a CM7 rom and a stock ROM. Since stock roms always came with those other files (modem, phone, csc...), I need to know if I can just extract the system.rfs file, edit what I wand or what I need and made a flashable zip.
A bit off-topic question: where are the resources used on the lockscreen? framework-res.apk?
Quick Question: if I pick the apps that I have installed libs and put them on /system/lib, they will work?
For the lockscreen and other graphic (theme) edits check this tut, gives you a feel of where to screw with the framework-res.apk

The easiest thing to do is to replace .9.png files with those of other ROMS to personalize it. Editing the xml files takes some trial and error, but its easier than it seems.
Thank you! One more thing: The power menu, it is hard-coded or I can add options to it via xml editing?

If you want to add options to power menu,you need to edit android.policy.jar,framework.jar and framework-res.apk.Here is a guide on that. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=811532 You might need to make a few changes to make it adapt,like change the string ids,and its GlobalActions$3 you should copy for ace,its GlobalActions$4.smali.

Just download a package from Odin.You will get a .tar.md5 file which you wont be able to extract,so rename the file to .tar Now,you will be extract it,after extraction,you will get many .img files like system.img,boot.img. Extract system.img,replace stock boot.img with Cf-root and thats about it.You could take the updater script from BlackHawk as it does the job most of the times.

I extracted the stock rom (system.rfs within the system files) and used the cf-root boot.img but my rom didn't start after flashing. I only saw the samsung galaxy ace logo and a blue triangle on the upper left corner of screen.
From the stocklite rom I used the updater-script. Maybe there is the fault?
Here the rom: Link
Please help me
Best regards

Hmm...thats weird..Try taking the updater script and binary from blackhawk and try.If it still doesnt work,then try and take a logcat,it might help.

Let me just download it and check the rom.
Hi,
Thank you for testing it.
I didn't copy the csc files into the system directory.
But i tried it with csc but without any success..
Please have a look over my rom..
Im very confused
PS: took the updater script from blackhawk and one other. Both are the same.

Thanks for the tip on the menu and all. Now I'll start to work on the ROM, but I'll still wait for the confirmation if the update script works!

Lol,updater script will work.Where do you think everyone takes updater scripts from? Its too big/dangerous to write up on your own,so what do you do,you take an existing one and modify it to work with your rom.Oh,and give credits to the original dev who wrote the updater script.
Hi,
I'm uploading the rom to mediafire now.
I give you the link when the rom is up in few minutes.
Thank you

First of all, thanks for the suggestion.
The thing is, I don't want to mess with the bootloader for now. That's why I need the Stock ROM Mod
Its EASY!

I can't seem to deodex the rom I'm trying to get up and working. I keep getting a error
" The program can't start because mgwz.dll is missing from your computer.. "
Although, I understand that, I still have a problem. I can't get the Framework.jar to deodex right.
I'm using a Deodexer program found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=5775540&postcount=57
And the zip I'm trying to deodex is here:
http://www.mediafire.com/?p6imi5i7hxcswth
Please, and thank you.
Bump!
Do you get any errors in baksmali?
Are you trying to deodex in windows? Linux is much easier- I recommend ubuntu! http://www.ubuntu.com/
I have a homebrewed script that seems to work- and took just over 3 mins to run.
Use at your own risk!! I didn't look at the link to the tool you posted and I don't know a thing about this rom, but I tested my script against your rom anyway. Everything I learned about deodexing is from the internet. For entertainment purposes only. If you brick your device, it's your own fault.
http://www.mediafire.com/download.php?o5na6x5is7db2jk
check to make sure you are using the right version of baksmali/smali, api level is 10, and you have the right boot class path. Bluetooth needs javax.obex.odex in the boot class path.
---------- Post added at 10:48 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:42 AM ----------
Edit- v2 added framework-res.apk Also note that the zip only contains the files that had odex files. apps or frameworks without an odex files are not included. For example, GexinService.apk or DSPManager.apk seem to be deodexed already.
I'm not very good with this stuff, but ill install Ubuntu on my second hard drive.
I don't under the baskmail(or however spelled) and API level.
I know baskmail is needed, and there are different versions. Do I need to put baskmail in the Windows directory like APKtool/

there's lots of info here http://code.google.com/p/smali/
I don't know how apktool deodexes- you might want to comb through the bat/shell files to see what it does. Then you can figure out how it calls baksmali/smali.

i find the images and how can I change the name of recovery I refer to the upper side where it put the name of it
There areany different recovery...what are you trying to edit? Cwm, twrp, ext4...etc
And source...I find the easiest way is to get a cyanogen working folder setup and use
Code:
make bootimage
that creates a kernel with included recovery (for Samsung devices)

Hi
In cm11 zip file (i.e. the installation file .zip eg:cm-11-20150107-NIGHTLY-falcon.zip), you can find the apk files from the zip in system/app folder or system/priv-app folder
But in cm12.zip, I can't find the app or priv-app folder in system/
I can only find build.prop file
Can you people help me to find the folder where all the installation apks are kept?
Regards
Yash

Part of the answer is I can see the system as large dat files in the root of the zip package. What I followed this link for was because I was hoping to find the answer, too. I'm going to try extracting the dat file(s), changing file extension to zip or some other common archive type and seeing if some common Android archive extracting apps will be able to open it. I'll report back if I have luck.

Be careful, you might want to make a backup before touching your /system
If
/system/lib doesn't work try
/system/lib/arm
Also I got this from an old s3 that I own
