Need help with flashable zip for gingerbread! - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys,
Im trying to make a flashable zip for 2.3.3 but it seems it has changed to what we used to use for froyo...
The script for my update script in my META INF folder used to look like this...
Code:
show_progress 0.1 0
copy_dir PACKAGE:system SYSTEM:
set_perm_recursive 0 0 0755 0644 SYSTEM:app
show_progress 0.1 10
But this doesnt work any more...
Do we need some sort of a binary now and can someone point me in the right direction to one...
Thanks for any help in advance!

Is it stock rom or custom rom? Are you using a custom kernel on your rom? if yes what kernel or custom rom are you using?

Simply honey 3.2 rom
Ultimate beta 7 kernel from damiengto

I think you are using a cwm2 update with a cwm3 compatible kernel or vice versa you can find cwm2 and cwm3 blank files on forum try them and let me know
Edit:
I attached the blank files

Yes, Kitchen works great for deodexing, zipaligning and signing Roms, but doesn't create correct updater scripts for me.
I use x ultimate to deodex.
Here are guides I found helpful when I wanted to cook it myself

PS
If cp command does not work use busybox cp to replace odex files.
Deodexing and zipaligning is not development may be I'll share my rom when I learn more

But it worked for me.Did you change to edify after doing chances in the kitchen?
I almost forgot the options because I fully switched to manual thing because Its good for starter but not for persons who need to become a pro

[GT-9100G] and UOT Kitchen ?

I have major concerns with UOT ...
I created my zip for S2 in the same way as for my ex GlalaxyNote.
but impossible to install it via CMW on official ROM, or on SuperRom3.
I'd love to know if any of you managed to use its UOT S2 G
of course u cant flash it...coz there some script missing in it...
i use UOT kitchen too..but no to make the themes.i use it for modded the framework-res.apk,systemui.apk and twframework.apk...
after cooked and download i pull out the framework-res.apk,systemui.apk and twframework.apk using 7zip and put it back to its place...
haha...

tell me if I understand ...
- you get the ZIP-manufactured by UOT
- you do not flash via CMW
- You unzipped the three files "framework-res.apk, and systemui.apk twframework.apk" instead of the original
and you get the same results? (for me I just want icons and battery)
ya...i just want to make it for my battery only...ahaks...
had try to make it works by using other theme zip..by pulling all its folders into the zip and removing all the thing inside the previous theme zip im using it except meta files and some of its script..i can flash it,but the themes not there...same as do we port a theme...
Thank !
after multiple reboot it's working find now ...
i have now a reason to keep rooted

Btw, u can also push the framework or systemui using adb..or by replacing files using root explorer..make sure ur root explorer is mounted to rw (top right corner) b4 u replacing any files in system..

Anyone know how to undo UOT effects? I used a update-binary script from some other flashable theme and inserted it into the downloaded UOT zip and successfully CWM flash onto my odexed KL3. Then I had further deoxed it..no problem... but i am unable to flash any themes...found here.... i always get boot loop.... i think its something to do with settings.uot file not compatible with the themes
I wanna go back to original deodexed state... any SIMPLE way to "undo" UOT 's effect?
I'd reckon i'd have to flash back stock odex KL3 and deodex again... any simpler way?

before any "significant change" should always make a FULL backup to avoid the kind of problem you have ...
I had not done badly and took me in!
Sometimes a simple reflash of the ROM is sufficient but not always, unfortunately.
I do not know if a simpler way is possible but if you find roms "deodexed stock" here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1529995
And other way is,to copy ur framework-res.apk,twframework.apk & ur systemui.apk using root explorer to ur sd card before modded anything...easy for u to revert back it u want to flash theme on stock deodexed...

I have a question: when a ROM is deoxeded it means that the apps are not compressed, am I right ? In that case the apps I will install later will be deoxeded too or not ?
Thanks for your ROM !
Deodexed rom have/has compressed apps with odex file and that's mean any deodex apps have/has created dalvik-cache and you can play with uot kitchen and edit all apps with your style without any problemsor errors. But Deodex rom is quiet slowly than odex sorry for my english
Thanks for your reply, I understand now !

Actually, a stock rom has two files for apps. X.apk and X.odex. Apk needs odex info to run, but in the deodexed version part of the info in the X.odex goes into a text file called, Classes.dex.
This gives you more free space in your phone
When you actually install any other app from play store or anything they are only the .apk file

Restoring stock boot animation

I want to install one of the boot animations from the Themes and Apps Forum but would like the option to restore the stock Samsung GT-N7000 one later.
Can anyone tell me how to do this please?
Thanks
what rom an kernel are you on?
usually its done by pasting the bootanimation.zip file in the system/media file and setting the permission to rw-r--r--
when you want to revert back, just delete the file.
Kernel needs to be compatible with custom boot animation
Thanks for he reply. I'm uing the PhilZ kernel that came with the Ultimate JB XXLSC v5.1 ROM.
