Most themes involve multiple apps and usually is best to be flash rather than be pushed via Adb. With pushing u would just push the themed apps to ur phone

Here's how to push apps via adb:
Code:
adb remount
adb push BlahBlah.apk /system/app
But as PapaSmurf said above, most Themes involve multiple .apks and even some framework files too, and most devs have created flashable .zips for their themes, so flashing the .zip is the easier and better way to add a theme to your setup.

ok so to make it flashable... all i have to do is convert it into a zip file.?.?

Best bet is to dl a theme of some sort and replace the apks with the ones u want to flash and then delete the ones u don't want. Then resign the zip with avabox

Here is how to push multiple apps at once.....
create a folder anywhere and name it anything you want. I'll name mine system
inside there make another folder and name it app
put all your apps you want to push in the app folder.
Now go back to your system folder and while holding shift right click on an empty space and select open command windows here.
type in
Code:
adb remount
adb push app /system/app
This will push all apps in the app folder. You can also do with with framework. Just push to /system/framework
After you push apps you will need to wait while they all get loaded and setup even after the push process is done.

[SCRIPT] OLYEM_U4 1.4.2 Telstra/Bell FULL Deodex -> 1.1 Updated

Hey guys,
I have updated this thread with a script and files for those who are unsure of how to make this work. Its a quick script so don't expect much, reverse engineered to simply de-odex your phone fully.
You must have ADB added to your "Allow" list in Superuser.apk.
WARNING:
This can brick your phone if you do not do things properly. I have tested it on my phone and it worked flawlessly. Once again though, I was on a fresh install of 1.4.2.
INSTRUCTIONS:
-Download files here <-- Updated link
-Extract files to C:\
-Execute SevensDeodex1.1.bat
-Wait a few minutes
-Phone will reboot and take a while to start up
-Done
MANUAL INSTALL:
Navigate to extracted files through CMD or Shell
Type the following commands
adb.exe push 142system.tar.gz /data/local/tmp/
adb push bin/install_script.sh /data/local/tmp/install_script.sh
adb shell
Once in adb type:
su
cd /data/local/tmp
chmod 755 install_script.sh
./install_script.sh
Known issues:
-Photoeditor.apk deleted as de-odexing this was a problem. So what
Updates:
1.1 Updated to fix some issues with the bat file.
1.0 Original release
Special Thanks to: NFHimself for showing me the way

i know that ken was looking for a dump of /system and /data, did you or will you toss one at him seven?
i would, but i was working on some frameworks on 0.37 that i don't really want to leave unfinished

You want me to upload a framework dump?
Will that help, let me know exactly what you need and I'll try to help.

I found aout about that method too last night, I just deleted the photoeditor apk and odex file and it ran through the app deodex fine. When I tried to copy my framework files though adb shell refused to replace the files, even using the -f force command.

Yes... could someone throw me:
/system/
/data/
I know that's a lot... but that's what I'll need. Thanks guys. PM me if you need a private FTP server to upload it. If not, you can use Dropbox or Hotfile.com (I have a premium account).

http://db.tt/kdUycD1 just dumped that last night..might be a slow downlad though...raybond25 gave me the script for it since I've never done it hope its what you need

that was something that was needed, but after that it needed to be deodexed. I sent snake's dump to NFHimself and he deodexed it.

i'm not sure how NFH did it, you'd have to ask him about his method but that system has deodexed /app and /framework
i'm not sure if he plans on writing a script that will do this and releasing it or not, that deodex was mainly because kennpenn was looking for it.
but, yes it can be done.

Will upload deodex files now

any special tricks ive tried deodexing at least 4 times and it stops at 91 out of 134...pissed

yeah i got an error at core.odex

I agree there is no sense reinventing the wheel, I used dsixda's htc kitchen to do it, had a working folder for something else, simply replaced app and framework with the files from telstra and ran his script and selected deodex. He has bits in there specific to the Atrix, I noticed that when looking at the scripts to do my own version, didn't bother after since it was already done. No errors, and haven't had a problem in over a month so it's all good, it only needs to be done once per firmware.
My rule of thumb, don't run anything for your $$$ phone if you don't have source or can read the scripts yourself, especially if it hasn't been tested specifically on your phone. Don't be in a rush to execute some file or script unless it's from a family member you really like with lots of money.
Cheers!

I've updated the OP and thread title.
Now includes a working script to deodex. Very simple and straight forward, no need to use any other tools and this should make it easier for all other users who are new at this.
Thanks for your help sir, you are a king amongst men!

Not a problem.
One thing about the script, Superuser.apk needs to know about the shell having root access, so once you root the phone, do an adb shell su command, accept the prompt from Superuser.apk, and you are good to go. I tossed some stuff into my root.bat (.sh) scripts to launch Superuser.apk and update it's database automatically, bit of a hack but worked the last 20 times I tried it.

ooooooooh you absolutely right.
Since I'm new at making scripts i'm going to simply just update the script so that the user has to put ACCEPT on the phone before running the rest of the commands you know, new vers coming now

I keep getting this error.. I took a screen shot of it.. Any ideas?

easy. It means you do not have root access allowed with ADB.
If you're phone is not rooted, go to the link in my signature that shows you how to root.
If you have root and you know its working then you must do the following first:
Open up your command prompt - make sure to keep your phone's screen active and unlocked.
Type "adb shell"
Once you have $
type "su"
check your phone's screen, as you will be prompted to allow, or deny access.
Select "Allow"
Now you are set to go, execute the script again.
Let me know of your results

I just tried it on a fresh SBF flash and root, root confirmed working though adb shell. It pushes everything fine, but when it goes to execute the script the cmd window just closes.
EDIT: Managed to get a screen right before it closes. Not sure of the problem because root works in adb and titanium backup.

Open up CMD manually
then navigate to where the bat file is and run it.
Tell me what the output is please.
Also, you said Root is working through ADB.
Then try to do everything manually as such:
adb.exe push 142system.tar.gz /data/local/tmp/
adb push bin/install_script.sh /data/local/tmp/install_script.sh
adb shell
Once in adb type:
su
cd /data/local/tmp
chmod 755 install_script.sh
./install_script.sh
And there you go.

You should just do what LDrifta said if your still having problems.
OH and regarding the update-script, heres your answer straight from the op of the kitchen:
QUESTION: Why do I need to convert the ROM's updater-script to an update-script when using the kitchen?
The kitchen can only perform operations on an update-script. UpdateR-scripts are too complicated to check because there are so many combinations of parameters for every command and for different devices; plus they can be written in different formatting styles. Thus the kitchen converts them to update-script so that there is one universal method to modify any device's configuration. If we didn't convert the updater-script then it would take months of work to overhaul the dozens of scripts (plus doubling my work) to accept updater-scripts, which would really NOT make a difference in the end anyway and would likely slow down the kitchen due to extra checks made in the updater-script. So please do not request this again and again, there is no gain in doing it (I also don't have that much free time ...).
When you build the ROM you have the option of converting it back to an updater-script, or the kitchen will convert it automatically if it decides it's necessary. The conversion back to the original updater-script is near-perfect, as I have already spent months on the implementation to get it right.
QUESTION: I have converted my update-script to an updater-script, but after flashing I still have the original ROM on the device.
That means your updater-script did not have the proper mount points defined for the system (and/or data) partition. Refer to this post for more info.
QUESTION: My device only supports ROMs with the updater-script/update-binary files but not the update-script
If you extract a ROM that contains an updater-script, then the kitchen will ask you if it should convert it to an update-script. You *must* use an update-script while customizing the ROM, as the kitchen is not capable of modifying updater-scripts. When you are ready to build the ROM, though, you will need to convert it back to an updater-script if the device requires it. Use the option in the Advanced menu to convert update-script to updater-script, or else the kitchen will ask you to convert it while building the ROM.

ok well depending on what apk's you are putting in.. if they are system required like a sense app.. it wont work on a froyo base rom.. but if its something like superuser or mail or something and is compatible with your rom than put it in system/app folder.. if its something that you want the choice to uninstall later on like a 'task killer' apk or something, place it in data/app folder..
and to sign it you dont need kitchen, you can download an auto-sign.zip file for windows here on xda.. all you do is unzip it directly to C: drive, place zip file in filder rename it to 'update.zip' than run the 'sign.bat' and it will sign the zip file. than you can flash it

did u do this on Kitchen?
If you want to add Market or non-stock apps (*.apk) to your ROM (which can be uninstalled or updated from your device later) then select the kitchen's menu option that adds "/data/app functionality". Afterwards you can copy these .apk files to the new /data/app folder of your working folder.
EDIT; After your done adding/deleting all the apps, dont forget to use the sign apk command to sign.

I read the thread, and he said he dropped some of the phones he was porting miui for, he was still doing the eris/hero. So seems to me he maybe dropped the g1, not sure tho. I guess you're gonna have to wait til either delsa is done porting it to the g1 or drakko.

[TOOLS][script] ROM Tools v2 (Kernel Extractor)(BML15 IMG backup)

ROM Tools v2 ​
Version 2 BETA
v2b (Officially v2)
Linux Script
by iamareebjamal
Automated Android script for extracting boot.img and bml15 partition​
My PC has issues so I can't use it to build mods and scripts, also, I have a very slow internet connection. That's why I don't upload my ROMs. Provided, I build EACH and EVERY one of my mod on my mobile, including those long scripts with repeating commands and making it easy for other guys to use, I could've just created a script with two commands which rendered error if used incorrectly, but I make it noob proof in every way possible so that there are minimum errors from your side and if something gets wrong, you know what it is. Even uploading 5 mb of mod makes it very difficult as I have to reupload if it fails. Writing scripts on mobile is not easy, you'll know if you have done it, it takes hours. Also, these colorful and easy guides are also made on mobile by writing BB codes ONE BY ONE by hand.
I am telling you because a person day before yesterday posted my Amazing Sounds Mod in another forum without my permission. However, he has removed it now. My work is fully open sourced for you to learn and make your own mods. But taking part of my work and posting as yours is not appreciated.
The MOST you can give me is love, prayers and Thanks

Out of the time I was absent from XDA(13 hours ) , I was searching for a method of extracting the kernel from your ROM
Imagine, you want to extract boot.img from your ROM but don't know what to do, you don't have internet to download the stock or custom kernel or simply want to extract it?
I did not find anything except the solution of Android Kitchen but what if you want to do it on your android?
As a bi product of this search, I got a lot of knowledge about the partitions used by Android system and the blocks that define them.
I also got basic knowledge about Linux Scripting.
So, I created this script that backs up your boot.img and bml15.img partitions.​
​ boot.img - kernel of your device
bootextractorv2.sh - Backs up your kernel
bml15.img - IMEI partition
bml15extractorv2.sh - Backs up your IMEI partition
Note:- SGY Toolbox also backs up and restores bml15_EFS.img. And that also with a nice user interface, I just created this mod, because I wanted to but I recommend newbies to use SGY Toolbox for backing up IMEI
However, I found no tool able to backup the kernel, so it may be very useful for some members
ChangeLog
Code:
*More Interactive
*More Intelligent
*Added Option to create Odin Flashable Tar package for kernel
*More Convinient
Requirements :​
Root Acess
Busybox
Android device
Hands
Terminal Emulator or Script Manager
(Script Manager recommended)​
Instructions​
Script Manager Method (Easy):-
1. Download Script Manager.
2.Download desired script and place it on sdcard.
3. Open Script Manager and enable browse as root.
4. Go to the downloaded script and click on the green android icon(root) in the pop up window.
5. Click on Run. Follow Instructions and enjoy
Terminal Emulator Method (Hard):
1. Download Terminal Emulator.
2. Download desired script and place it in the root of the sdcard.
(You can place it anywhere else but the directory should not have spaces and you will have to change the commands accordingly)
3. Open Terminal Emulator and type (After every command you have to press enter)
Code:
su
And Grant Root Access
Then, type
Code:
sh /sdcard/bootextractorv2.sh
or
Code:
sh /sdcard/bml15extractorv2.sh
according to the the script you want to run
4. Now, follow the instructions on screen and enjoy
Download bootextractorv2.sh
Download bml15extractorv2.sh​

Doesn't work for me, S5830i stock firmware. If I use script manager method, a lot of "not found" messages, and finally the boot folder is empty. I give script manager root permission. And if I use a terminal emulator, the same error messages, finally there is a 5MB boot.img file, but "untouchable". I can not copy in any other folder. If I connect to PC, boot.img is missing. Appears again in the mobile when I disconnet the USB. I can not change file permissions with root explorer....
Also when the script ask if I want to create a zip file for recovery, I select 1 and I get "bad integer, run again"
Thank you

Yes, and the script founds it (it says). Finally I zipped boot.img with root explorer and that zip file could be copied to the PC. Guess the file is ok. Thanks.

Why you zipped it?

English is not my language. I explained that boot.img was untouchable. I tried to copy to computer and I always got writing errors. Rebooting wasn't useful. Permissions couldn't be changed with root explorer.. The file was there, but couldn't do anything with It. Tried to zip it and it worked, and I copied the zip to my computer..

Sure that there is problem in busybox applet sync
I don't know why script couldn't detect it

I don't know what the problem was. I installed, not without many problems, the last busybox available, and everything worked ok. Out of curiosity, I compared boot.img file extracted with "problems" and the boot.img extracted now cleanly, and are identical.

Razr I XT890 bloat apps safe to remove from JB?

Hi,
Just wondering if anyone has tried and tested the removal of bloatware apps from their Razr I XT890 running 4.12?
I'd be interested in cleaning the phone up a bit just to make it less crowded, I like to use real calc instead of stock calculator, go sms instead of stock messaging, zeam launcher instead of stock launcher etc etc.
I'm quite a novice when it comes to the technical side of things so would be too afraid to start deleting system apps incase they messed something up.
If anyone has seen a list compiled and could share, that would be great. Also, would it be Razr I specific, or would a general 4.12 safe removal list be safe to follow?
Any feedback appreciated

I think that for you would be easier use Titanium Backup or SystemAppRemover (need root acces) to remove apps.
If you want use the zip file you have to unlock bootloader and flash CWM. In CWM you can install zip files. # you must put in front of the line where is written desired app. Updater-script you can fing in the zip file /META-INF/com/google/android/

Thanks again, I actually have my phone rooted and was able to apply the debloater, however I don't want to remove everything so will restore the backup I took before trying it, I tried install the zip file with the edited script (with the # in front of the ones I wanted to keep) but it failed to install via recovery so I must be doing it wrong
I extracted the script file, opened with wordpad, edited, closed and saved, put it uncompressed back into the zip and tried it.
that failed, so I tried open directly from the zip, edit, close and save and flash that too but that failed too the original unedited one doesn't fail.
The error I get is something referring to error in zip file.

Do not use WordPad. Edify scripts require line endings to be linux style (LF only). Wordpad converts them to windows style (CR LF). Use another editor; I recommend notepad2-mod (set syntax highlighting, F12, to shell script)

See I edited and saved in wordpad and wasn't prompted to save in any other format, do you think it still saved in CR LF?
In the same script and another edit, I think I pasted something from somewhere else and went to save, but then it prompted me to save in the wordpad format itself (rtf I think it was) which I didn't, when I simply added a # or two, it just prompted to save without asking for format so it appeared to save as it was and not change anything? So you reckon it still changed it to the non-readable CRLF?
Would basic windows notepad be ok to edit it instead of having to download notepad 2?
Thanks for tyour help so far!

Maybe I'd be better just doing this via root explorer, of which I have some experience of. Is it just a case of locating each of the files listed in the script and deleting them or is there other hidden crap elsewhere that the script gets rid of which a simple root explorer delete won't?
