Hi guys!
I've just started experimenting with customising a rom to my needs.
I've already added some things i was missing and deleted some stuff i don't use.
but now i want to add some stuff like the xda app and some other stuff.
i searched already but couldn't find anything usefull, or maybe just read over it.
How do i get the .apk files of the app's i want, so i can put them in the rom??
or do i have to create it myself?
and is there a way to get/create .apk files of the app's i previously downloaded from the market?
or is there a better/easyer way to do this?
Thnx in advance!

Hello everybody, I just joined the site recently and absolutely love it.
But I have a question... I just updated my software on my Kaiser to Windows Mobile 6.1, and my question is... How do I get these zip folders to be accessible so I can use the new features?
I'm not too sure if I'm supposed to extract the files some place or place the zip files in a certain folder. If u guys can help me, I'd gladly appreciate it.
Thanks in advance.

By Zip Folders? You mean CAB Files?
Just google for Installing CAB Files

No, actually I mean zip folders, lol. I know how to install the cab files.
Which Zip folders are you referring to? Are you trying to access zip folders on your phone?

These zip files. and i can access them, Im just not sure how to use them as an actual program or layout or whateva
Those are Skins for PocketCM, you have to install that and unzip the file into the themes location in PocketCM.
Installing themes varies depending on what they are for. Have a look on the PocketCM website for more information.
I suggest reading the thread's and posting in there if you have any problems, because as I said before, each theme is different. (Probably why I don't use them that often )

If you have WM6.1 it should be working.
You can check the Wm version in Start>Settings>System>About.
If not, there is a tweak to enable / disable it. Download and install KaiserTweak or Schap's advanced Config. And have a look for the option.

just download an older rom that has it and unzip it, find the apks you want and move them to your sd and use Astro from the market to install them. Hero2 roms have Plurk. Here's the download link http://tinyurl.com/yh3sere
There are some ROMs around that are deodexed and zipaligned. The ROMs around here unfortnately are themed (not to my taste) and/or have removed Samsung stuff that i use. I want a nearly untouched FW (i remove a few Samsung apps on my own).
So i'm searching for an automated method (that can also be used for future FWs) to deodex and zipalign the files of my phone (maybe only some binaries or java applications and a batch file).
I can manage to pull/push all files from/to /system/app and /system/framework but i'm not able to do the rest...
Also very interested in this. Or a clean kitchen or a how to on making a kitchen to mod our roms.

I just wanted to create a thread about MODIFYING / CREATING CUSTOM ROMS FOR THE i9000.
Does anyone know how to modify (for example, Tayutama's JPM Full ROM) ROMs?
I googled and just found some HTC ROM HowTo's.
Check my signature for all the tools u shud need in terms of deodexing, editing apks, creating signed update.zip. Thats all you really need i think :\
A zipaligner is missing.
yes that'd be perfect! trying to optimize my device myself here too.
if there's no automated way could someone be so kind to post some instructions as to how?
found some stuff on the g1 forums but i'm not sure if it'll work...

Quite an old topic, you'd be better off just creating a new thread.

Hello people,
First of all i'm new to this forum but i have a question.
I wanted to remove de music application from the notification bar, but i excidently removed the whole music.apk.
I didn't make a backup. I also read other threads about this problem but there's no real solution.
The easiest solution is to install a new music.apk. But i don't have that file anymore.
Can somebody post this file?
Thanks already!

Thanks man!
Searched for it but didn't find it.
I uninstalled the Zumocast app while playing with my new phone. If someone can give me a link to the .apk, that would be awesome. Or, if there was another way to find it, I've already Google'd it, I would love to hear the enterprising soul's method of doing that. Anything to prevent me from running the FXZ so soon. I'm not scared, soft bricked my Dinc a lot when I was learning about it back in the day. Anyway, my bionic is rooted, I just would like to have the zumocast app back. I didn't get to play with it before I inadvertently erased it. Thanks in advance to anyone with some guidance.
here you go
http://www.mediafire.com/file/nvalpdp23frans7/com.motorola.zumocast-1.apk
Thanks man. That did the trick. Thread closed, unless anyone else needs this apk.
where did you find that app?

The zumocast apk and odex can be found in the /system/app folder.
thanks for this link. i just asked for it in another thread and then stumbled across it here. is this the newest version?
Latest version?
ZumoCast updated to version 1.1.1 today(?). It fixed a problem with folders containing a very large number of files. Where can I find the .apk?
