View 1 Repliesi want to create a flash-able zip of PA's HALO for my stock and rooted nexus 4. For all i know i must take the commit files and merge them in my recompiled ROM's folder, compile them and flash (or maybe try to run it in an android emulator first?) Well i'm facing a lot of problem: 1 i can't even get git commit files (yes i have git installed) 2 even if i succeed to get the files and compile my ROM and it all works flawless i don't know how to make HALO as a flashable mod.
View 1 Replies View Relatedi was wondering if there is a way to create a zip package to flash through CWM, in order to install various apks simoultaneously... You know, when i flash a new rom i get bored of having to reinstall everything, and Titanium backup doesn't work properly... so i wanted to create a pack with all my favourite apps, and install them all in once!
View 1 Replies View RelatedI know people talk about this all the time... I found a lot of thread of how to create a flashable zip file.. But every thread has it different than others. So I have tried it several ways and still get errors...
I'm trying to make a flashable zip to push an apk to system/app and I decided to do this to test it out...
This is the update-script I have tested it with
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/system");
delete("/system/app/FlashBarService.apk");
package_extract_dir("system", "/system");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "unmount", "/system");
Ok what I figure is the run_program is to mount system with busybox. Every line i see that it have this on there.. Then Im trying to replace an app from system/app so I put in delete("/system/app/name of app");
then package_extract_dir("system", :/system"); is so recovery can extract and push the zip file
and again run_program to unmount... But recovery is giving me an error status 4
I also deleted that delete line and still got status 4.
Again this is another way I tried it to do it with
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/system");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/cache");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/data");
package_extract_dir("system", "/system");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "umount", "/system");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "umount", "/cache");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "umount", "/data");
And this way too
mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p14", "/system");
mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p14", "/data");
package_extract_dir("system", "/system");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "unmount", "/system");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "unmount", "/data");
And till got status 4.
Inside my xxx.zip I have it set up this way META-INF/com/google/android
And other folder on root system/app
I have a GS3.
Like I said I have followed several threads about this and all looks different and none worked.
I know this is supposed to be the easies thing to do when it comes to android. But I just need to be directed to the right path.
You can convert the file to be attached to me a file cwm in a file flashable with the stock recovery.
I tried to change the name of the file to update.zip, but the stock recovery gives me error.
Making boot animation? I need to know how to make the flashable zip file I already have the images created

I have a firmware for my galaxy ace named S5830XWKTM_S5830OXXKT3_S5830XWKT7_HOME.tar.md5 and I wanted to edit the baseband so I could make it work in my S5830L by just changing "amss" file...
But I can't change it if they are in .md5 and if I change the file to .zip and transfer amss, I can't change it back to .md5
How can I turn S5830XWKTM_S5830OXXKT3_S5830XWKT7_HOME.tar.zip into S5830XWKTM_S5830OXXKT3_S5830XWKT7_HOME.tar.md5
Can we reorganize the applications inside the 'Gapps_ ics_ xxxxxx.signed zip'?
I mean can we eliminate or add some more applications inside of CWM flashable zip file, instead of working with TitaniumBackup to restore our own favorite applications after every wipe Rom Flash ?I mean just deleting or adding some xxxxx .apk files...
I got a mediatek device. System and Boot.img included in the zip file. But I need a meta-inf map with the updater script. Problem; How the hell do I create one to work..

The native binary is working fine. But the problem cmoes out here. The function of the native binary is to read the file in the AFS and to copy it to another location.
But when I do the above steps. The native binary has been successfully loading to the AFS. After that when I try to execute the native binary. The file is get created with 0 size. The file permissions looks like below.

How can I create a XML file that has identation or, at least, line breaks between each tag? I'm using class XMLSerializer (available in Android) to handle the XML creation.
XMLSerializer serializer = new XMLSerializer();
StringWriter writer = new StringWriter();
serializer.setOutput(writer);
String xmlFileContents = writer.toString();
Then I use the contents of xmlFileContents to create a file, using a BufferedWriter. The file is written, but the XML is not idented, and would like it to be.
I created a sample project using the below command:

I would like to write a file to the SD card from my application, but the following code throws an IOException when debugged on a T-Mobile G1:
String p = Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory() + "/log.txt"; File recfile = new File(p); recfile.createNewFile();
The last line throws an IOException with detailMessage = "Cannot create: /sdcard/log.txt". The MOUNT_UNMOUNT_FILESYSTEMS permission is set in the manifest. And yes, I really do want to write to the SD card; I don't want to use the logging features Android includes for this particular application. The Android documentation does not seem to give any specifics on how one might write files to removable storage in "Data Storage" under "Framework Topics". What am I doing wrong, or where can I read more about this topic?
I would like to make a file browser that will do two things:
1) Allow the user to browse and select a directory

I was wondering if it were possible to dynamically create an XML layout file to be displayed to the user. The idea would be to be able to retrieve a layout file from a central server, which could display this dynamic, server driven GUI.

not sure how to inflate this from my layout file: MyView v = LayoutInflater.from(this).inflate(R.layout.myview, null); the inflater of course does not know what 'MyView' type is, and returns only View. What's a good way to reconcile this?
