2. Create an png image (with the same size as the resolution of your device)

4. run ./rle_changer your_boot.img your_image.png

Click to collapse
The image should be the size of the resolution of your device (for Xperia P is 540 x 960).
Save it as a png without alpha channel/transparency, this is not supported.

v1.3 release. Now supports windows.
See Changelog.

This function will be implemented soon, you do not need manually extract.

oops, not again...

The path to your boot.img and logo.png is incorrect...

I don't know if it's my fault, but my boot image looks defaced/disfigured.
I also tried it manually, without your script, and it looks like something's wrong with my picture.

Use at your own risk as I am not responsible for anything you do to your phone.

Planning to make a barebones 2.1 rom?
sent from x10 CM7 (FreeXperia Project)
yup. made one but not as small as the other and I want it to work on bb .67
just have to wait to get to a linux computer to resize ext2
I left in some of the gapps for now

no need to use linux computer to resize!!!
[APP] Windows: Create Your Own Data.img Maker Application, +/- From Existing data.img
there u go.... u can use the above app to resize any ext2/4 fs image in windows!
Good going....
few pointers
if you want to keep bare bone 2.1
data partition either eliminate completely i.e. edit the boot.img file init.rc
or create a simple 100 MB file 100 seems to be the idea value that worked for me
and system i am down to 175 MB and going down.... Will post my system.ext2 once i have some stable one.

I am plaining on removing everything and just use it for camera.
sort of a widget on my normal screen to boot to camera mode.
and camera mode being this custom rom.... that smallest image could be camera alternative for all till we get gingerbread.

you can use any thing I post up here if you want... I am working on a slimmer one and will have it done by the end of the weekend. just use any bb changer to add files for bb you want. I think this one will be stable has jit2 and has some tweaked libs from other roms in it.
posting rom in a few minutes
i am using it as a regular rom first to see how stable it is... And it is down to 153mb with some gaps installed
cheers
ps.. don't forget you can edit any image in any file to gain size also
@rdannar
looking at ur modified OP i am slightly confused...
u want to use the ROM u release here as a base rom? or as the one inside the .ext2 files?
also the boot.img provided by Z will not work on bb2.1.67... unless u strip out the ramdisk and use only that to boot...

hey rdannar, do suggest which method you used.
also i my stripping is down to 160 MB right now hope i could go more down and then will post all updates as a new thread...
@anatshri, rdannar
i think lets keep the dual boot discussions to z's dualboot proof-of-concept thread...
that way it will be lot easier to follow... and will keep all relevant info at one place...

this will be inside the ext2 file by replacing files... trust me doom... I have already had his dual boot with calls working on my phone. just replace the core bb files. this is close to the same rom he has with some image changes

OT:
damn it feels so weird to go back to Eclair after using FreeX10 & CM7 for almost 4 months now
@rdannar,
as you are using it for daily rom can you confirm following stuff working.
1) Wifi
2) BT
3) market
Rdannar, you could do with the ARC data/wifi icons etc.
Ill see if i can get these!
dualboot_DooMLoRD_MOD_rdannar_2.1.B.0.1
Since zdzihu wanted to encourage devs & users to switch to new xRecovery I am releasing this proof-of-concept as an Edify update.zip compatible with xRecovery v1.0.0… the concept being that we can convert ANY rom’s (nandroid/recovery) backup to dual boot image (yaffs to ext2 img) which actually boots!!!!
Also I am not saying that this is the only way but rather that this is the way I achieved it…
A BIG THANK YOU TO ZDZIHU FOR GIVING US THIS NEW TOOL TO PLAY WITH
all credits for the base 2.1.B.0.1 ROM goes to rdannar cause I have modded rdannar’s 2.1.B.0.1 ROM from this thread!!!!
THANK YOU rdannar for ur awesome work!!

Translate?
LINUX
First navigate to StudioAndroid directory.
Then
xgettext -k_ -kN_ -o messages.pot Studio.py
msginit
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
A new file will be created (***.po)
Open that file with PoEdit and translate the right-column
When finished, save it and rename ***.po to Studio.po and put it in StudioAndroid/lang/yourlang_YOURLANG/LC_MESSAGES
afterwards, compile it:
msgfmt Studio.po -o yourlang_YOURLANG/LC_MESSAGES/Studio.mo
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
When I update it, merge the changes using:
xgettext -k_ -kN_ -o messages.pot Studio.py
msgmerge -U Studio.po messages.pot
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
and translate the new strings in PoEdit
The file I need is yourlang_YOURLANG/LC_MESSAGES/Studio.mo, but it's handy for you and me if you also include yourlang_YOURLANG/LC_MESSAGES/Studio.po
WINDOWS
Open lang/LanguageFiles/en_US.po in a text editor
msgid indicates the original string
msgstr indicates the string you need to translate.
So translate the msgstr strings.
Afterwards, send me en_US.po renamed to yourlanguage_YOURCOUNTRY.po
Thanks!
If you cant upload files anywhere, then past the content of SA.po in Pastebin and send me the link
THanks in advance

Hey! will this app work on windows? How to batch resize using this? Can this handle transperency? And will it perfectly fit to MDPI from HDPI or it will have FC's???

fc has nothing to do with size, I think...
windows, not yet. How to resize: option resize and follow on screen notifications.can handle transparency.
But no windows yet

You're welcome.happy users, that's what I am doing it for!
Today ,I made a big update, and added the option batch theme. Also made the tool git, installer file (much smaller and better), new directories support, code cleanup, and some fixes. And also, Apk multi tool is not more then a weak away from release.
Greets!
Thanks man,
This is a pretty amazing program. I looked at the script code and i am really suprised by how long it is. Nice job! As i type this, i am downloading the source code for gingerbread.

If you want to, I can learn you how to code it. If you look at the code of the dsixda kitchen inside the scripts directory, copy that and put it in the main menu, it's as longas my script is now. That's what I wanted: ONE script

If I am right, it says
Usage: SrcDir ext DestDir perc
Source dir contains the images you want to resize
Extension should be png
DestDir is where the resized images will be put
Perc is the percentage, from HDPI to MDPI IS 66%
Hope I helped.

Yes it says, Usage: SrcDir ext DestDir perc
But you have to type on the Value thing I said before.
I typed:
Code:
~/src 9.png ~/src/new 36
36 is ldpi(is that right?)
And says this is not a command.

Welcome To Sony System App Editor Ver.1.1​Installation
Please follow the instructions carefully, cause this is very crucial to the programs working.​
Step 1
Download the following resources :​
Android SDK (drawPatch9)
Java SE Runtime Environment 7 (Java)
Step 2
Go to Advanced System Properties.
It should look like this:
Go to Environment Variables, then create a new System Variable, having name JAVA_HOME and value according to the path where you have installed the JRE(7).
It should look like this:
Now after creating the JAVA_HOME variable, search for Path system variable in the System Variables list. Now this is a bit tricky. Once found click on it and then on Edit. Now if your value is ending with ";" (without quotes) then just add the path to your JRE(7) bin folder. If the ";" is not present then just add it and follow the rest of instruction as given.
It should look like this:
Now just Save it. (Just keep on clicking OK it will be done automatically.)
Step 3
Download Ver.1.1.zip.
[*] Download
[*] Size: 17.85 MB (18714229 bytes)
Now Extract the zip where ever you want in your computer.
Step 4
Open the folder in which you have extracted the files and then the res directory in it.
Now make sure that the folder looks like this -
If you want you can add your modified resource files too.​Note: If you are using any other ROM or PHONE of Sony (This program might be compatible with all types of Phones and Roms though!), then you should over-write the already present resource files in the res directory with your own ROM or PHONE resource files. (This is important!)
Now open the program by executing - Sony System App Editor.bat, like this -
Then type LOADRESOURCES, and let the program install the required resources. Once done add your APK file to this program's directory and get started, cause you are all done!
It should look like this:
How to use?
Step 1
Make sure you have the original version of the system apk. (This is important cause in other situations I cannot guarantee it's working as I haven't tested it. ) Copy it to the program's main directory.
Now open the Program by executing - Sony System App Editor.bat, and type only the name of the System app.
For eg.: If you want to edit UxpNxtLockScreen.apk, then copy it to the main directory, and then by executing the program type UxpNxtLockScreen. (Notice no .apk!)​
Now press Enter and let the program handle the rest.
Still it should look like this:
Now check for any errors in the Apktool output screen, if none found you are good to go or else I don't know what to do?...p)
If everything went fine it should look like this -
Step 2
Edit your APK to your carnal needs! But still make sure everything you do is syntactically correct and there are no erroneous codes.
For editing APK's go to the working folder of the program, and look for the folder that is named after the file-name of your System Apk.
It should look like this:
​
Now open it and start editing.
Step 3
Now assuming you have finished editing the System app, execute the main program once again - Sony System App Editor.bat.
Type the APK's file-name (no exts.) which you where editing, and press enter.
It should look like this:
Make sure everything goes right and check for any errors in the APKTOOL output screen, cause program at the current stage will still produce a build even if there is any error with apktool! (Will be solved soon.)
Now assuming you have checked everything and nothing is wrong, then you are good to go! And still it should look like this -
Step 4
Assuming that everything has been fine till now, so then you can have your APK file in the build folder of the Program's main directory.
It should look like this:
​
Now copy it to a place where you can create a flash-able zip out of it! :laugh:
Note: If you want to start modification of the new apk file of the same name, first delete the folder in the working directory of the previous APK's file-name. (It's important.)
Condition of it's use
Please use this program at your own risk. It has only been tested to mod UxpNxtLockScreen.apk.
This program utilizes a technique that I learned while creating my first mods, and was not able to find a perfect tutorial.
The technique this program utilizes might not be applicable for all types of System Apps.
The program is just created by me today (23/9/13), so please bear with it's simple and non-wanting UI and features.
So start using it and start modding today! - Become a World-Class Developer! (.........:laugh:...............:laugh:........)
Download Ver.1.1​Please wait till this program is completely face-lifted!​Credits
Apktool developer for developing such a great tool.
Google for making such a wonderful OS!
Me for making it's modification so simple! (divinemamgai)
This Tool is gonna suffer from Face-Change! So please co-operate.

I guess but I'm not sure cause there maybe some functions used in this program which might not be available in Fedora. I have developed it in Windows, so I think you can try out and tell me what happens. But as far as I'm know it my not work.

If you have issues, download paypal app from playstore, that will work
For US users:
"I could not use your paypal donation link or url as you already know as it's not possible to send a donation from USA. I logged into my paypal account and used the option to pay for goods or services to send you the funds."

Hello, I present you a tool that I always create based on TarMd5Packager by AS
This tool will automate the backup, the decompilation, recompilation and transfer to your S8plus of up_param (it will remain that a line control was carried out on the terminal emulator directly on your mobile, for injecting into the system your splash screen change
this technique only works on soc exynos​
● be ROOTE
● have enabled debugging
● original data cable
● the terminal emulator (installed on your mobile)
● a PC under Windows
■ download the zip
■ unpack the tools (or want)
■ Double click on .exe
■ the instructions (the tool is very intuitive)
EXPLANATION OF CONTROLS
☆ 1 allows for a BACKUP of the original file (required to continue) it will be stored in the folder
UP_PARAM_Backup
☆ 2 transfer the new tar on your S8 +
☆ 3 up_param.bin decompile the file to access the images (they will find it in file shares, you do more than to change what you want scrupulously respecting the dimensions)
* Before using option 2 you must copy the file up_param.bin packaged folder to the root of the tool (it has say in there or what is the .exe that launches the tool)
☆ 4 recompile in tar after your changes
☆ 5 closes the tool
After downloading the file to your phone,
open 1 the terminal emulator

Hello
me i'm getting to center the picture but no more.
try to put text at the top and bottom of the image, (I pence that all proportions are from the text.
So, just checking... apologies for the n00b question, but you have to be rooted for this?
Also,
Who provides the animations, you or us?
Thanks!

Hello
yes it must be root
it is up to you to modify the images.
we can use it without root by decompiling the bootloader and putting the param.bin at the root of the tool then decompiler with the tool, made your modifications and recompile. take the new param. bin recompile the bootloader and flasher with odin
(but I'm not sure that knox is not triggered)

well on our device the param partition is ablock img and containsmore than juat images.. i might b looking at something else though, i cant seem to find a param.bin lol
our layout structure is dif. i think on snapdragon variants.. i however think the key to unlocking our bl is in the param psrtition
our /param block device is sda7 at /dev/block/sda7. looking in platform folder it symlinks back to /dev/block/sda7
