Hi folks,
I have two mp3 files that I want to add to a zip file so that when I flash CM's latest nightly ROM, I can then flash this zip to add my two favourite audio files to their respective directories ie: Ringtones and Notifications.
Currently I push them usuing ADB but it would be nice to just have the zip file in the SDCARD and flash it at will. Little assistance?
TIA!
1) Download any update.zip for anything, unzip.
2) Google up "update-script", locate it in the zip.
3) Put your files in /system/media/notifications and /system/media/ringtones folders.
4) Change the update-script - googling it will tell you the instructions.
5) Zip back all the files, putting attention to keep the directory structure just as in original update.zip.
6) Google "sign zip apk", set up the environment to sign the ZIP, and sign it.
7) You're ready to flash.
To make it easier for you, I'm attaching update.zip I use for my own ringtones and notifications - so you'll only have to pack your relevant MP3s into the relevant folders. But you'll need to set up the signing environment - or use a recovery that bypasses verification completely (Amon_RA 1.8 and up).

Thanks for the tute. I have Amon's recovery so I will use your update zip.
Many thanks again for your reply.
Sry for my poor English. This is for ppl who flash RUU-AU-OPTUS rom mainly to get S-OFF, then wanna flash back the rom they were using before they patching the AlphaRevX.
Here are the simple steps:
1, get the rom.zip from another RUU*.exe, i mean the one you want.
2, unzip the rom.zip into many img files
3, delete the hbootXXXX file. and if you want keep clockworkmod, delete recovery file as well.
4, use 7-zip to add all those files into a new .zip file (no winrar, 7-zip only)
5, rename the new .zip into the PG32IMG.zip , copy into sdcard, reboot into hboot and flash.
6, remember do a factory reset, cuz the AU_OPTUS rom will leave some funny area settings and data in the phone.
edit: sry i missed, goldcard is a must!!! make your sdcard a gold card b4 doing all these. thx 007!
Hi, tried this method just now but nothing happened.
Tried flashing it like you described as PG32IMG.zip it looks like it is running the flash but no change after reboot.
Tried also with recovery (install from zip) but unfortunately doesn't work also.
Am i forgetting something in the process?
Your missing goldcard...
This is also explained in the downgrade guide in this forum
Always something missing . Thanks.
didnt you just forgot to make changes to some specific text file as well?
like erhm, removing last line of it?
like erhm...
hbootpreupdate o.0?
just a wild guess
Does anyone know how to create a .zip file that can be flashed through cwm? say for instance a .zip file that contains the cwm recovery? Any help would be great, and thanks to all in advance who reply

I want to know this too. When I take a zip file that flashes correctly and put a different file in the zip folder, like a modem for example, the new zip file won't flash.
modems are tricky in the Galaxy S line, there's been some work i've seen about flashable modems, but almost everything i've read says they always fail to flash. There are tons of tuts about creating CWM flashable .zip on XDA, just do a quick search.
Same here. I would like to create a cwm zip files that contains all my user apps. TB is good in batch mode but would be so much quicker if I could create a zip and do it after flashing rom.
Have to know how to create scripts to do this. The script takes care of where the file you want to install goes in the system. Then there is the META-INF folder.
Too complicated for me. Let us ask Noxxious.

Hello everyone,
Can someone please inform and post a thread link of a battery mod that works on the i9001? By battery mod I mean small zip file that is installed from recovery and changes the stock battery meter
You can make it yourselt.
1. Use Root Explorer to get your framework-res.apk file
2. Go to http://uot.dakra.lt/ to customize it yourselt.
3. Go to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1253707 to download the Root-i9001-Signed.zip
4. Put the modified framework-res.apk in the above zip file and delete the unneeded files.
5. Update the updater-script file, resign the zip file.
6. Flash the zip file in recovery.

If you use manveru0's kernal and recovery you can now flash the update files as they come from the kitchen

Hmm... yes, nice, but I'm not in to designing things. I was looking for something that has been already created
what's the version of your Rom?

Firmware version : 2.3.4
baseband version I9001XXKP4
Kernel Version : [email protected] #7
Build Number : GINGERBREAD.XXKP4
I use Go launcher (from my opinion it's the best), if you think otherwise please post the better launcher, I am opened to experiment others.
Many thanks,
Ciprian
I don't have a I9001XXKP4 Rom in my hard drive. If you can send your your framework-res.apk, I can make one for you.

hey guys!
just used this. twice great kitchen, really revamped some of the more boring icons on stock roms. thanks for the tip!!
1framework-res_I9001XXKP4_signed.zip is the file that I updated the updater-script so you can flash it in the in-build recovery.
1framework-res_I9001XXKP4_original_signed.zip is your original file. If there are any issues, you can flash it back in the in-build recovery.
How to:
Copy the zip file to the internal SD card, not the external one, go to recovery, flash it.

nope because you will end up in a bootloop by flashing this
its only for XXKP4

I already received the cooked file
but I dont know how to change the update script and end up failing to update using the zip file.
can you please help me?
or link me to a place that really can help me to learn better on changing the update script.
try this one, I updated the updater-script, you can compare it with the one from kitchen.
PS: Forgot to update the update-binary file, now try the new one. It should work.
Thanks!!!! But I got an error that states
E:error in /tmp/sideload/package.zip
(status 2)
I wonder whats wrong.
looked in a thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1194245&page=3
and from what I understand it seems to be a problem with the update binary. But Im just an end user and this is too much for me.
anyway maybe Ill try to flash the cranium ROM and try to cook again a new one and use your update script.
cheers!!
Hi,
Is there any posibility to change framework-res.apk file without CWM? I don't want to instal CWM becouse of it has a problem with front side cam and I need this cam. It's can't be overwritten when the phone works. Maybe some adb and push command is possible.
Could you help me by describing the whole procedure? Sorry for my English.
@quest221
Can you maybe make one for Android 2.3.5 like the screenshot @ page 1?
I have baseband I9001XXKPF, Build XXKPG
I update the zip file with the new update-binary file.

Yes, I just use the recovery from Samsung, not the third-party.
Check the post #2, that's the steps. Also replace the update-binary file with the one in my zip file.

Upload your framework-res.apk file.
I've got a phone that may or may not be totally frakked due to careless build.prop modding and have been asked to try and recover it without wiping, OS flashing, or any other methods that could potentially lead to a wipe. ADB is a no-go, but I've got CWM access. I've never needed to make a CWM-flashable *.zip before, so I never learned how. I'm crunched for time and could really just use a break. Could somebody please put this build.prop into a CWM-flashable *.zip for me?
i new user, how i can upload my build prop
I would be extremely grateful!
Thanks in advance!
i must get 10 post.. jeez..
Hi, try to use Aroma File Manager. With it you can copy your new build.prop to the appropriate location.
To use the file manager, simply download it to your computer, copy it onto your phone through recovery and then when you are in recovery go for flash zip and choose the file you downloaded.
