Nandroid Backup - Motorola Droid and Milestone General

Is there a way to rename the backup's so that if we have a few we don't lose track of which ones are which if they are different roms?
Thanks, Adam.

Take your backup and rename the folder later using rootexplorer or your pc.
edit : Any file manager would suffice to rename the folder.

If I rename it, the backup does not show up anymore in my nandroid restore list..

That's not possible. I have done it a million times before with no problems.
Which folder did you rename? You should rename the highlighted folder as shown below. See how mine shows up after renaming it.
nandroid->openrecovery->Folder Name->img files + md5 files
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}

I renamed the folder as you showed. Just doesn't show up...

No clue then. Also there should not be any spaces in the name. It should be continuous.

Ah, I had spaces in my names. All good now. Thanks man, much appreciated.

I use ROM Manager and it allows you to name the backups from within the app prior to booting into recovery.

Well simply (or not so simply), how does one create a flashable .cwm file

I took a zip that was already flashable via cwm and used it as a template. Like a boot animation for instance. Inside you will find a meta info folder which I don't mess with. It tells your phone what to do with the file. You will also see a system folder which contains the proper folder structure for the file you are inserting. For a boot animation you should find system/media and inside the media folder is your boot animation. For a swype keyboard you would find a lib file in system/lib and the swype apk in system/app . I use 7 zip to move stuff from folder to folder.
Hope that helps.

you should read this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=928955
beyond that, just look at a cwm zip that you have on your computer with 7zip and understand the structure, then look at the update-script and try to make heads or tails of it. its really not that complicated once you understand what its actually doing.

New Markets for Salsa

i've managed to find some Markets for the salsa which you can change once u have root access.
Non of these are made by me and were sourced from the XDA forums awhile ago. credits due to the owner!
To change these use Root Explorer available from the Market
Inside the folders are the market styles in zip form you can change to.
Instructions for replacing with a new style.
open zip file you want
in the folder will be 3 files
data /app/ com.android.vending-1.apk
META-INF
system /app/ Vending.apk
you need to copy from the data & system folder and paste them into /data/app and change the permission to this
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
then also copy same files into /system/app and paste in there
again change permissions to above image.
Reboot your phone to engage the new market.
In the the link below is a small amount of different coloured markets as most have disappeared off-line now.
There is an original copy in this zip file if you wanted original back again.

My project is a mess after upgrade from 4.4 to 5.1

Hi.
I upgraded my current project from 4.4 to 5.1 and now everything is a mess.
Nothing works and dont know how to fix it. When I get one error to dissapear just a new pops up.
Here is a "good looking" image of my AndroidManifest.xml file thats a total war-zone.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I thought that i just could change back the different parameters as they where before but that was not the case.
Greatful for help.
I believe this is not exactly your AndroidManifest.xml, but the one from build directory. Try to delete such folders manually, does it help?

Ok. So I found one AndroidMainifest.xml file in the debug-folder and I deleted it but Android Studio is just keeping build me a new one.
The correct AndroidManifest.xml file is in main/AndroidMainfest.xml.
I posted a image here as well:
Why does it generate a manifest file that mess up my project?
UPDATE:
I have delete all the build folders in hope of getting rid of the problem. But nothing helps.

Extract the zip file of the rom.in the extracted folder go to META-INF/COM/GOOGLE/ANDROID.There are 2 files in that folder called update binary and update script.Edit the update script by adding the circled line and save it.
then compress the rom folder again and flash..that should do the trick

systemui.apk modded for a510

I have modded systemui.apk of this rom: http://www.htcmania.com/showthread.php?t=1273404
How does it change?
1. add 3minitbatterysetting to rom.
2. move wifi and signal icon to the left
3. mod unlock phone by using fingerprint without checking security. That means you open you phone at once not using pattern or password
4. Recent apps background is round.
here are some pics for my work.
