Q - Automated flashable zip not flashing - Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A

When I create a flashable zip from backups with zip.exe and a one click-tool,(like easy flasher in sig) it doesn't flash, it errors out (error: E: unable to open zip file, error flashing zip [zipname] ). But if the same folder is right-clicked and selected send to zip, it flashes perfectly..
Any ideas to get it automated?
Regards

Hi,
In your RUNME.bat, on line 213, in the :FINAL block where your update.zip is made, just replace that line with this -
Code:
zip -r update.zip * -x zip.exe
I have made a flashable zip which should install qualcomm battery guru in /data/app. Just test it and tell me if it works since I don't have my mini.
Good luck

Good point. When right clicked and send to Zip, it flashes I'm twrp
Besides when right clicked and clicked, the process is
Goto system32/zip.exe and zip it using zip command right?

I searched but didn't get it to work with 7za.
I want to create a zip but exclude 7za.exe (I copy 7za to workdir and want to zip everything except 7za) but can't get it to work it always includes the 7za.exe file too.
Or is there a better method to do it?

There is a workaround for that. Once you create the zip file, there is an option which allows you to delete a file from the newly created zip file. It is 7za -d I think so and it does the job perfectly.

[GUIDE]How to extract Stock firmwares from Samsung?

And,comes another guide from me.... I was actually extracting a stock firmware and this came into my mind
Ok,I made this guide since the process of extracting firmware is a bit confusing sometimes.So,lets start with it​
What you would need:
1.7zip or any other zip utility
2.Stock Firmware
3.MagicISO
4.Nothing else
Tutorial:
1.Start off by downloading a stock firmware,for this guide,we assume its DDKQ8
2.You will get 2 files, S5830DDKQ8_<bla bla>.tar.md5 and SS_DL.dll
3.Ignore the second file,we only need the first file which has an extension of .md5
4.Now its not possible to extract the file with the current extension.
5.So,rename the file S5830DDKQ8_<bla bla>.tar.md5 to S5830DDKQ8_<bla bla>.tar
6.Now,the file is extractable,so extract it.
7.You will get approx. 9 files: arm11 boot,amss,csc.rfs and various others.
8.Delete all the files except boot.img and system.rfs.These are the only files we need.
9.Now,using MagicISO,open up system.rfs and extract it.
10.Make a new folder named Rom_working
11.Now,move the boot.img there
12.Make a folder called system
13.Move all contents of system.rfs to this this folder.
14.Now all you need is a META-INF folder to complete the rom.(Unless you messed up)
Thats it! Pretty easy huh,this is something really basic,but a few people get confused on extracting it anyway.Its just meant to be a basic guides for those people.If you want to get more info on making a rom,refer this guide which i wrote a few months ago.Hope this helped you guys out.
NOTE: I am not responsible if you mess up your phone or w/e happens to it.Btw,<bla bla> stands for the rest of the filename ​
thanks for that,, i was woundering how it was done,, i ended up using a nandroid backup with kitchen to make my own lol

Update binary error while flashing

Hi guys, i created my first own rom but while flashing it with TWRP 2.5 i get error "Error executing update binary in the zip"
So is there any solution?
First see you are properly rooted by using root checker.
Also it may be the problem of TWRP . Try flashing it through cwm.

You don't sign it at all. And you can't install it. You have to flash it with a zip in recovery.

When i flashed the zip file it installed well in recovery but when i came to the system from recovery i couldn't find the settings apk installed.
Can you create a working signed zip file to flash in recovery for the attached apk.
Thnaks in Advance
There are plenty of tuts on how to do it yourself. The mount points are very different for each device so you will have to get a zip for your device that works and then just add your apk.

Relax and give him time. You would have had it by now had you done your own research and docent yourself.

I think you mistake this for a support site. If you searched then you really didnt look very hard
http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...tutorial-making-flashable-zips-edify-t1611615
That gives you everything you need to know to make it.

First off. No you should never sign a system APK. If you do it will conflict with the system Sig that all system apps use.
I told you once already. You cant install the apk that way. It has to be flashed in recovery.

I did a flashable zip by ZipMe app from playstore and flashed it...still the settings apk was not found in the app drawer!!!
