Roth, Does this build include the standard e-mail app which I can sync with exchange and my contacts with the contacts app shown here as well or does this build only include g-mail and standtard TnT mail appliation which does not let you sync calendar and contacts?
Thanks for the great work!

This isn't a ROM, just an update.zip. What you see in that image is what is copied to /system/app

I made a copy of the TnT Kb + Live WP + Gapps zip, put it in /sdcard and rename it update.zip, turn off the unit and then press power+volume up, but nothing happens -- it does says recovery and I got that triangle with an "!". I'm on stock TnT with adw launcher.
Any suggestions and help are most appreciative!

You need to have clockworkmod recovery to just use the update.zip.
Otherwise you need to grab the /recover/command off of a different update. I think the clockworkmod recovery update.zip comes with it.
Using the stock recovery, it needs to see the command file to work.

I get pretty much the same thing as case-sensitive. Except, after copying the recovery directory from the cwm update.zip to the sdcard root, I get an image of a box with a down arrow and an animated progress bar at the bottom and then the triangle ! after a couple seconds or so.
Any ideas?

Is there a way to uninstall the apps I'm not using? I was gunning just for Calendar and Contacts, which aren't picking up my Gmail accounts, and I'm not using the other apps, so would like to get them away from my OCD. But it's still way cool!

root explorer will do it. i think androotfile will do it to. just go into system/app and delete the but make sure its mounted as r/w
I can't get these to install. Running CM6.1 beta2. There are no errors during the install in CWM recovery but when the device boots, none of the programs are there.
Do I need to run clockworkmod inorder to put it in recovery?

No, but it would be easier for you to go ahead and get clockworkmod installed. I have a post that links to a v0.8 version update.zip that will apply clockwork from the stock recovery.
Thank you. I have 2 questions. 1. I have "androotfile" installed and cant seem to get it to mount as R/W in order to copy and paste the files needed to get the android market to work right I get "unable to chmod/system/framework:read only file system. 2. Now forgive me I am a newbie but how do you get the g tablet in recovery and why.
Thank you for all the help.

Then follow the first post in this thread.
I'm unsure what you are trying to copy exactly. This post doesn't talk about manually copying anything.
I've tried this twice already with a factory reset in between each try, and it's worked both times!
Attached is a bunch of files you will need to make this work.
1.Download the attached Zip file and extrat the contents to your desktop
2.Mount your G and upload the "G Tablet" folder to your G's internal SD card
3.Using AndRootFile or any other file manager that supports root access, mount as R/W, and copy the contents of G Tablet\permissions to System\etc\permissions.
4.Copy the contents of G Tablet\framework to System\Framework
5.Copy the contents of G Tablet\lib to System\lib
6.Copy all the APK's found inside G Tablet\APK into your system\app folder.
7.Install them in this order:
1.GoogleServicesFramework.apk
2.OneTimeInitializer.apk
3.SetupWizard.apk
4.Talk.apk
5.Vending.apk
6.Gmail.apk
7.Maps.apk
8.Make sure you remount it as R/O when you're done!
9.Restart your G, Connect to Wifi, then launch Market.
10.Follow the standard Google Account setup procedure and enjoy your newly installed Market.
I got these instructions on another thread and all worked untill I got to the part about coping files to other directorys. Thats when I got that error in andfileroot.

You are mixing two separate guides. You do not have to manually copy anything.
The thread you copied those instructions from is very old, and will not work as well as the one from this thread. I put together an update.zip that copies everything that needs to be copied, so you don't have to do those step.
It is very very simple:
Load the gapps update.zip to sdcard, run update.zip.
Do i need clock work mod to run this .zip cause the only option is to extract and there is no run.
PS really, thank you for your time

The download here will have two files in the zip.
One file will be an update.zip, the other is a folder that looks like this: /recovery/command. The folder with command in it tells the stock recovery to flash the update.zip on the sdcard.
If you want to keep stock recovery, then rename the gapps update.zip to literally "update.zip" and put the folder /recovery/command on your SDCARD. Then you will hold volume + and power to run it.
If you want clockwork, just unzip the download here to your SDCARD. It will have the update.zip and /recovery folder to flash clockwork.

I did some searching but didn't find anything.
Is there a way to bulk install applications if you have all the apks for those applications?

Emm haven't tried it but it should work.
You could use wildcards.
So let's say you have a bunch of .apk's all in one folder, you could use adb to install them on your phone using this syntax:
Code:
adb install folder/*.apk
This should install all files ending with .apk in the folder
sweet, I'll give that a try and let you know how it works. Would make testing different roms alot easier.
Do you think this would bypass the market? If it did notification of updates would not work. hmm, ill have to test.

use atrackdog
Create a batch script with:
Code:
for %%f in ("C:\path\to\apks\*.apk") do adb install "%%f"
The easiest way (imo) if you are rooted:
1. Put all the apks into a folder structure \data\app
2. Create a text file with the following and rename it update-script (with no extension) then put it into a folder structure \META-INF\com\google\android
Code:
show_progress 0.5 0
copy_dir PACKAGE:data DATA:
show_progress 0.5 10
3. Zip both folder structures into a zip file (you should have folders data and META-INF at the root of the zip).
4. Sign it with signapk and you're done
Whenever you want to bulk reinstall, just put the signed zip file into your sdcard and reboot into recovery. When you want to add or remove apks from the bulk installer, just drag it into your zip file and resign.
Or you can backup all your apps into one folder on your sdcard and run this in terminal:
Code:
su
cd sdcard/apps
busybox install *.apk /data/app
I might add this feature into my ADB File Explorer app
I've added a basic feature to install apps into my ADB file explorer, it can do one off apk's or bulk install from a directory. See my sig for more details.
wow, that was fast! thanks!

Thank you for this. This will come in handy a LOT next ROM flashes :]
Seems so easy looking back on it, not sure why I didn't think of it earlier. I may even just edit the rom files to include my installed apps if I need to wipe.
someone made an app for the computer if you have the .apks you just plug in your phone double click the apk and run it and itll install on to your phone, try looking for that.

I just wiped my phone completely clean and reflashed to Cyanogen 3.6.1.

I'm not sure whether it's using the 5 MB free or the 42 MB space, but Any Cut is 32 kb, so that's a non-issue.
Any ideas on why it's not working?

Do you have your sdcard partitoned to fat32 as the first one and then ext2(3) as your next partition?

I don't think so. If there is an ext2 or ext3 partition, I didn't set it up.
By the way, I got InstallAPK, which lets you double click on APKs on your PC and install them to phone immediately.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=521295
It worked just fine at installing all my apps after the wipe.
Minus the fact that I had to double click on an app, wait for it to install, double click the next, wait for it to install, double click.... ad nauseum.........
I'm still interested in finding out why the method I posted in the screenshots isn't working.
Has anyone actually gotten it to work?
We're getting off topic but this is what you need to do in all likelihood you're gonna have to reflash Cy 3.6.1 again but before you do you're gonna need to setup your sdcard like this:
you can use either Paragon Partition Manager (above) Gparted, or SDSplit but you should set it up like the picture to run apps to sd and to fully get the Cy experience

Ok guys here's my first contribution to the community I guess.
First of all thanks to;
frostman89 - for the iphone pngs
zHk3r - for the new iphone pngs
teslacoil - for the widgetlocker for sure!
others - those that contributed that i forgot.
I take no credit at all, i created this thread because many people have PM'ed me for the pngs and tutorial.
Ok lets start shall we? You will need;
- Widgetlocker(Buy it first cuz its not free)
- Root Explorer(Buy it too and this is optional if you dont know adb)
- the PNG files;

Got 2 steps on how to do this;
1) ADB
2) Root Explorer
3) My own steps(this is what i did to get it working!!)
4) Ninjamorph(S-OFF required)
5) Paypal buyer~~
6) Easier method - simple script
7) What if FC after applied the mod? Link to original post - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=8928204&postcount=51
BEFORE THAT, NANDROID first!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
1) ADB(google would help a lot)
*Btw make sure you have your widgetlocker completely removed/uninstalled before doing this.
a. You will need Android SDK installed (google for it will ya?).
b. "adb pull" your widgetlocker(anyone who did this can tell me please?)
c. Open your "pulled" apk using winrar.
d. Browse to /res/drawable-hdpi
e. Drop those 2 images you downloaded in there(make sure it is the exact name as the original so it will overwrite it.
f. Now for adb push part(make sure you in the recovery mode and make sure the widgetlocker.apk is put inside android-sdk-windows/tools folder - the default folder for adb);
Code:
adb remount
adb push com.teslacoilsw.widgetlocker-1.apk /system/app/com.teslacoilsw.widgetlocker-1.apk
adb reboot
g. Tada! Enjoy!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
2) Root Explorer
*Btw make sure you have your widgetlocker completely removed/uninstalled before doing this.
a. Browse the app in data/app, it is called com.teslacoilsw.widgetlocker-1.apk
b. Copy it to your SD card.
c. Modify it(see step d and e above)
d. Put it back into system/app(you need to be in R/W mode)
e. After that, long click the app, select permissions, and do checkmarks like this: (the * represents a checkmark) - this is courtesy of frostman89
* . * . -
* . - . -
* . - . -
f. Reboot and voila!
==========================================================
3. My own steps!
Actually my steps is mixed between those 2 because, I can't pull using adb so i had to pull using Root Explorer. Then I cant push it using Root Explorer so i had to adb push them.
So there you go, if you have problems like me, just did what i did.
a. Browse the app in data/app, it is called com.teslacoilsw.widgetlocker-1.apk
b. Copy it to your SD card.
c. Modify it(see step d and e above)
f. adb push(make sure you in the recovery mode and make sure the widgetlocker.apk is put inside android-sdk-windows/tools folder - the default folder for adb);
Code:
adb remount
adb push com.teslacoilsw.widgetlocker-1.apk /system/app/com.teslacoilsw.widgetlocker-1.apk
adb reboot
I'll tell you guys too why i cant use adb pull and push using root explorer;
adb pull - easy, i dont know how to adb at that time...haha~~
paste using root explorer - i pasted it but nothing appeared? i was like wtf and that leads me to learn how to adb.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4) Ninjamorph(S-OFF required)
I'm not sure how but here is what faceqt told me;
Or, if you have S-OFF you can use Ninjamorph to replace the 2 .png's and reboot your phone.

Click to collapse
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
5) Paypal buyer~~
Quoted from jayhan73;
For people who have purchaed WidgetLocker off paypal, the steps to do this only involves replacing the png files (i.e. opening the apk file sent to your email and adding the png files into the required directory). After that, reinstall the widgetlocker. You may also choose to push the apk via adb. Either way, it works.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
But i believe once you mod it you can't install it normally, so its either adb or root explorer.
6)Easier method - Smple script as posted by brady;
brady1uk said:
There is a much easier way to get this on your phone using the files from the OP without faffing around on adb, rom manager etc...
download APK manager from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=695701
put the apk file in the "place-apk-here-for-modding"
run the script.bat and extract it, (basically unzips it) drop the new PNG files in /res/drawable-hdpi (replace already existing) then run zip.apk from script and (select option 2 Regular apk) then use option 4 sign apk.
look in the pace-apk-here-for-modding folder will be a new file called 'something'-signed.apk. (this is the new edited Widgetlocker
This file you can put on your SD card and Install and Uninstall like a normal apk using ASTRO etc. no need for ADB and root explorer.
Takes literally 5 minutes to do with NO RISK to your phone

7) What if FC after applying the mod? - link to original post - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=8928204&postcount=51
Is WidgetLocker Force Closing after you've applied the mod?
Quoted from zHK3r
Then try these steps:
Requirements:
Android SDK
HTC Sync Drivers
WidgetLocker
Two PNGs
7zip/WinRAR
1) ADB pull /data/app/com.teslacoilsw.widgetlocker-1.apk
2) Rename the .apk to .zip and open the folder - Drop the two PNGs in drawable-hdpi
3) Rename the .zip back to .apk
On your phone: Uninstall WidgetLocker and then re-install.
Start WidgetLocker, but once you've started it. Press home.
Don't apply any settings or continue the tutorial
4) ADB push com.teslacoilsw.widgetlocker-1.apk /data/app/teslacoilsw.widgetlocker-1-apk
On your phone: Start WidgetLocker > Menu > Settings > Look and Feel > Slider & Layout > iPhone
Code:
adb devices
adb remount
adb pull data/app/teslacoilsw.widgetlocker-1-apk
adb push com.teslacoilsw.widgetlocker-1.apk /data/app/teslacoilsw.widgetlocker-1-apk
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Btw if you have any problems pushing an apk, try this;
Quoted from Zaphyr;
Ok, so I figured out the problem.
/system wasn't mounted. Even in recovery when I tried to push it over, I needed to go in the Clockwork settings and choose mount system before I could push it.
But now it works perfectly! YAY!!

*I'm pretty sure it'll work the same for other lockscreen you wanted as long as you have the needed files.
Feel free to comment and give feedbacks, and correct me if i got wrong in some part. Enjoy!

Nice. glad you got it working. Enjoy!
What about apkmanager to extract the apk from your phone and unbundle it for editing. Its alot easier in my opinion, and it easily re compresses the file and can push it back to the phone for you.
Sorry I don't have a link, but just do a search.

It worked like a charm! Thanks, I LOVE IT!!

I am having trouble when pushing the apk in adb
I already managed to pull the apk and edited the png files
after that i uninstalled the widgetlocker
the adb remount gives me error "remount failed: Invalid argument" if i run it from recovery mode.
so i run it when the phone on.
then i go to recovery mode and run the push command, which is successful.
then i reboot the phone, but nothing happened.
no widget locker installed.
any idea?
thanks

Easy, go into the Clockwork settings and choose mount system. then adb remount, and adb push. Should be working 100%!
great, it works.
thanks a lot for your help

Do you have android sdk installed btw? And if you have, have u cd to the adb directory?

This was created in Flash MX 2004 (Old, I know, but my chosen program for doing silly animations).
Its basically just an image from Google, pasted on a black background, and made to rotate upwards, while honeycomb bee's fly by. Its all zipped and set to go, I'm sure I don't need to tell you that if you add it to a ROM .zip, choose "store" as your compression, otherwise they don't work

Thank you so much for this. I'm quite new to these so.. my question : How can I just flash an audio and keep the boot image that came installed with the rom?
Thank you for your time ;o)
u have to find your bootanimation.zip that came installed with your rom.
e.g. system/customize/resource oder data/local
in this folder copy the "android_audio.mp3".
use RootExplorer or flash with CWM

I really appreciate your help. I got stuck when flashing the zip. I copied the bootanimation.zip onto the sd card via file expert but I pushed the mp3 file into the zip folder using my computer.
I couldn't copy the mp3 file into the zip using file expert. I gave it permissions and all of that.. GRRRRRR !!
Please help once again ;o)
Assuming you are using a ROM like LeeDroid, make sure (when you save your audio file) that you save it as .OGG
Once you've done that, rename it to .mp3.
I tend to install boot animations (and the audio) in a way that most would consider awkward or pain-in-the-backside. Basically I will add the bootanimation.zip to the current ROM.zip that I'm using, and reinstall it, without formatting data, system, or anything like that. I still keep my phone the way it was, all of my apps are still there, I just have a different bootanimation
I gave up with copying the bootanimation with file managers and stuff, because it requires digging to find the original bootanimation and I never could (and I've been though all the system, data folders and so on, nothing was there) so I just do the reinstall. I guess its essentially like performing an update to the system.
This very good, quite the style change.

Hey there! Guess what? Your method didn't work..lol. DAMMIT!! I'm using RXMixHD v1 rom.. I wish someone can put up a flashable bootanimation and make my life easier..hahaha!
Thanks soooooo much for your help though. Greatly appreciate it. I used LeeDroid's rom and that worked flawlessly. I was able to flash the audio and life was great back then ;o)
Maybe I should consider going back to his rom? Hahaha!
THANX ONCE AGAIN ;o)

Hi
The only thing that I can think of as to why it wouldnt have worked, is because when you added it to your ROM file, you didnt choose "store" as your compression method.
If you are using winRAR (if not, i do recommend it) drag the bootanimation.zip to directory in your LeeDroid rom.zip (usually data/local/). You will get a pop up screen and there will be a choice to choose your compression method. Use "store" and you should be set to go. try re-installing the ROM and it should work. Again, dont format any of the system or the data (you dont want to loose your apps and so on), just choose to install it.

OK, and I'm sorry you are having some difficulty
they way I do it is:
step 1)=
double click RCMixKingdom v1.0.zip and it should open winRAR and show you a list of the files in the archive:
data
META-INF
sdcard
system
boot.img
virtuous-setup_rom
double click "data" and you should see the following files:
app
etc
local
sd
dtinstall.launch
From here, double click "local" and you will see "bootanimation.zip" and so on, I imagine you got this far.
Step 2
Find the "bootanimation.zip" that you downloaded and drag it into winRAR, in the same place as you are, with the original bootanimation.zip
You will see a pop up which says "Archive name and parameters". On the left hand side of this pop up, you will see "Archive Format" which you will be unable to select (because the file your adding is already a ".zip") and underneath that you will see "compression method". By default is says "Normal" so we need to change it to "Store".
Depending on the speed of you CPU, and whether your "RCMixKingdom v1.0.zip" is on your hard drive, or your sd card, this can take anywhere from a few seconds to around about a minute.
Once that has finished, copy the file to your sd card (if it isn't already) and reboot your phone into the bootloader (holding the power button and down on the volume button) so you can access the Recovery (clockwordmod)
Step 3
Once you're in the recovery, select "instal zip from sd card" and it should take you to a menu that says "choose zip from sd card". Find "RCMixKingdom v.10.zip" and select it, it will say "this cannot be undone", that's fine, move the selector down to "install RCMixKingdom.zip" and it will start installing.
During this process you might see a few worrying things, such as "formatting system", but don't worry, this process doesn't remove you apps, etc.
Once that has completed, reboot system (there should be an option in the menu) and the boot animation SHOULD work. It works for me all the time, so if it doesn't work for you, I cannot explain why not.
The other method is (which I gave up on originally) was to use a file manager such as Astro, ES File Manager, but as hard as I looked I could never find the "data/local/" folders. Well I could, but they were empty. What I wasn't told is that, in the settings of the file manager, you need to enable "root access" for the files and folders in "/data/local/" to show up.

Thank you so much for your time and effort in posting this up for me! BUT where can I download the bootanimation? LOL !!
Do I have to copy and paste the bootanimation using root explorer and then add the audio file?
I really do apologize if this question sounds silly.

You can download my bootanimation from the very first post on this topic.
If you have your own boot animation, paste it on the root of your sdcard.
I will attach some screen shots to this, hopefully it will help you
If you are using RCMixKingdom v1.0 you will find that it comes with a program called ES File Explorer

Open this and hit menu and then settings. scroll down to "Root Options" and tick both the boxes. Exit ES File Explorer and open it up again
You should be in your sdcard directory
Navigate (scroll) to your bootanimation.zip and, as it shows in the picture, hold down on the "bootanimation.zip" and a new screen will come up:
Press copy to copy the bootanimation.zip
Next you will need to press the sdcard icon in the top left to change from sdcard to the system directory:
Then navigate to the "data" folder
once in the "data" folder navigate to the "local" folder:
Once in the local folder you will see this:
at the bottom of the screen you will see a tab that contains your copied file. Drag this tab upwards so you see this:
Press and hold the "bootanimation.zip" so this screen appears:
It will say "Warning, are you sure you want to overwrite?"
Select "OK" and it will paste "bootanimation" from your sdcard.
Restart you phone and your selected boot animation should be working.
Also, I'm not entirely sure that the RCMixKingdom ROM supports audio during boot animation, or if it does, it needs to be in a different format/directory.

I GREATLY appreciate your time and effort in composing in post with the visuals to help me get the bootanimation working. ;o)
I don't think that the sound works on bootanimation with RCMix Kingdom rom. I did however get the bootanimation working.
I think I will stick to LeeDroid's version update a few days ago as this works with sound and I think runs much faster on my HTC Desire HD.
Once again, THANK YOU !!!!
Hi,
I made a few bootanimation.zip for Jellytime i'd like to share.

Connect your phone to your computer via USB and mount the storage card for file transfer.
Copy the bootanimation.zip file that you want to install, to your SD card.
Unmount USB storage and launch the file browser of your choice on your phone.
Browse to /system/media, copy the existing bootanimation.zip file from there and paste it somewhere safe on your SD card.
Browse to the location on the SD card where you copied the new bootanimation.zip and copy it.
Browse to/system/media and paste the bootanimation.zip file there to override the default system boot animation without replacing it.
OR
Browse to /system/media and paste the bootanimation.zip file there.
If you are using Super Manager, you will have to enable its root function first from the settings. Furthermore, you may need to mount the /system partition as read-write first too upon entering it.
ADB method:
Enable USB debugging on your device in Settings > Applications > Development.
Connect your device to the computer via USB.
Launch a command prompt/terminal window on your computer.
Navigate to the location where you have the bootanimation.zip file saved.
Enter these commands need root) :
Code:
adb remount
adb push bootanimation.zip /system/media/
Boot Animation Factory (the easiest way) :
download and read how to from this post :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1678540
Whichever method you used, you should now have the new boot animation successfully installed on your device. Simply restart it and you should see it running upon boot.

You need to STOP with all the Jelly Time bootanimations!
I downloaded and installed the first because it was so cool.
Then you come out with a second one, had to choose, stayed with first.
Then Randomblame uses your second one in B9.1.
Now there are just to many good ones to choose from.
Really though, great work. Keep it up.

try the last one, it is pretty cool (many details you don't see in the preview), you nwill enjoy it
All are very good looking.
I do not know if it would be possible but, if you could create a way to have the system randomly pick one each time it booted, now that would be Awesome.
And then I would not have to choose...
I don't know if it's possible neither... you should ask a dev (I'm not)... I thing it's a little too much work...

I get a lot of requests to remove the NavBar. I'm posting this mod at each phone's forum themes section. TWRP flashable zip. Restore zip will be created in a folder named ozop on your sdcard.
8.1 February update
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=818070582850494336
8.0 November update
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=817906626617946322
8.1 preview
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=745849072291689241
Installation instructions for those of you that have root, but do not have TWRP. Busybox must be installed first.
1. Download the enclosed vrthemeADBversion zip and readme.txt for copying and pasting purposes.
2. Unzip the vrthemeADBversion zip to your sdcard. Rename folder to vrtheme
3. Put the readme.txt on your PC where you use adb.
4. Download appropriate NavBar Gone zip. Unzip and copy the system folder that is inside the vrtheme folder to the root of your sdcard.
5. On the root folder of your phone, find the data folder and create a folder inside it named tmp
6. Copy the vrtheme folder you earlier extracted to your sdcard to newly created data/tmp folder (/data/tmp/vrtheme)
7. On PC, with your phone connected and in file transfer mode, open CMD prompt and type "adb devices" without quotes. If your serial number comes up you can proceed.
8. Copy and paste the command lines from the readme.txt (include quotes)
adb shell su -c "mount -o rw,remount /system"
Hit enter
First time you will be promoted by SuperSU to give adb permission.
Copy and paste the second line in readme.txt
adb shell su -c sh /data/tmp/vrtheme/installtheme.sh
There is also a Mod installer zip. If on Windows operating system you can unzip it where adb is running and run the bat file instead of typing or copying and pasting the commands.
Wait until everything runs, after a pause of a few seconds your phone will reboot and your NavBar should be gone.

They are the same. Easier to add files from AFH to keep track of and because of the 20mb limit but this one was under 20mb and I was having trouble at the time with AFH. Names are different I believe but same thing.

I didn't had BusyBox installed, busybox always caused bootloops but ur mods.zip from other forum worked just fine. Navbar is gone. No bugs or nothing.
It worked for me without busybox...strange Anyway thanks bud!!
@Tulsadiver Good day, i am unable to make this mod work with Oreo 8.1 December security update. I haven't tried it with the latest security patch because i am waiting for the February update.
Anyway i tried both methods the TWRP and the CMD one. After looking at the code it seems there are two issues one there is a directory issue instead of sdcard/system it should be /system since from the CMD log its reports it can't locate it so i did the change and that worked at the first stage but when it came to theme the framework or apply the changes it seems it couldn't locate the needed files.
Anyway i ended in 2 boot-loops after trying the zip version and after i did the change to the directory.
By the way i am using Magisk for root, and i have installed busybox but the i had to change the directory to bin instead of xbin on Oreo.
Thanks.

First of all, this is for the November update. Secondly, if you read the instructions correctly, you were to copy the system folder to your sdcard, hence, /sdcard/system
I have an Aroma installer that has Navbar gone in it but it is for January update.

Actually based on the instruction you stated:
5. On the root folder of your phone, find the data folder and create a folder inside it named tmp
6. Copy the vrtheme folder you earlier extracted to your sdcard to newly created data/tmp folder (/data/tmp/vrtheme)
You see the "Data" folder location is in the root of the directory and not in sdcard bescuase sdcard doesn't have a data folder, i think in step 6 you meant your phone instead of sdcard.
Any way i will wait for the February update and if you need any files once the update is here let me know, thank you for the work.
P.S :I would love it if you could do a step by step tutorial on how to minimize the navigation bar height and width to 0 and all the needed changes.
Thanks for your time and work.

You forgot this line
4. Download appropriate NavBar Gone zip. Unzip and copy the system folder that is inside the vrtheme folder to the root of your sdcard.

I'm not saying those instructions aren't the most convoluted instructions ever written, LOL. I actually made a adb installer with a menu for all the mods I had at the time and all you had to do was run the installer bat file, pick what you wanted and reboot. Everything was done for you. 8.1 got a working TWRP so I only posted it where TWRP wasn't available yet.
I know, i tried the twrp method first but the device will always boot to the recovery that's why I tried the alternative method in hopes it will work.
This had been updated to February update.
