hi,
well i've made a custom rom but i need to copy a file to /data/system which is the appwidget.xml
First i try to use the "simple" copy script as for application.
But it breaks the boot of my sgs.
I think i need to make some permissions on the updater script but i don't know which numbers to put in.
Can you help me or have a better solution.
Thanks in advance.

hi I need some help with theming:
im having a hard time with the genie widget.apk. I´ve seen elsewhere that the gw should be flashed to System/apps but that not the case with my phone.On my htc desire it should be DATA/apps and I just can´t make a flashable.zip I get an error everytime(error at line1 something). I use a zipsign tool which works fine with system/apps maybe I need another tool, which leads me to my next question:
How do I make a flashable file where I move files to SDCARD / SYSTEM / DATA ?

Alright this you will love I had same problems search for Update Zip Creator 2.0 by Daneshm90 you will love it and as far as flashing data/app/ it doesn't work you have to know how to make your update script install with permissions otherwise they just get copied in the right folder and don't work.

thats actually the tool i´m using by default , however I dont know how to make files copy over to Data/app and I also dont know how to make the zip creator move files to sdcard. I´ve only managed to use the updatezip creator to write to System/app, System/media and System/framework.
what should i do to get an update.zip with folders system / data / sdcard?
When I was trying I gave up when I would edit the generated update script I would get as syntax error what I started doing was put the data apps in a folder named Extra_apps or the theme name like Blue_Steel then tell update zip creator copy directories SDCARD then folder name and folder name again I wish I could help more but its something I'm trying to learn myself I believe w are going to have to learn to write the script manually I have asked on the update creator thread also never got an answer excuse the spelling on my phone thank god for swype..lol
Hi all,i have a big Problem with my custom Rom.
First if i install my Rom with Rom Manager i run always in the same error
E:Failure at line 6: symlink toolbox SYSTEM:bin/cat
i have toolbox in my system/bin folder and i think my update-script is also ok!?
Then i have a another Problem with deodexing InfoAlarm.apk(system/app) and core.jar (system/framework) any ideas? Tool i used is dsixda's kitchen.
with the newest smali baksmali(1.26) 1.25 hasnt worked too.
Many thanks in advance!
At a guess - you need to provide more details if noone has been able to answer your question
post up the script and your rom somewhere and link to it and let people actually have a hack at whats wrong - without knowing what your doing - no one can tell you where you went wrong...
Hi,
i want to have the stock bootanimation on my N1 which is running CM7 #96
I have this attached bootanimation and want to sign it, so that i can flash it.
I dont want to push it to system/app via rootexplorer and change permission and reboot anymore.
How do i do that? Or can somebody get it done for me?
It's a little more complicated than just signing it - in fact, you don't need to sign it, you need to create a flashable zip which will install the file.
I find the easiest way is to add the file to a gapps package in the right directory structure, so that everything gets flashed in a single zip. You would need to look at the install script in the gapps package, and make sure it first removes the existing animation, and then check to see if it installs the whole /system structure, or individual files. If it installs individual files, you will need to list your animation...
Hi guys,
I tried a fix for GPS for v20l that can be found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=19002334&postcount=41
This got me into a bootloop...
Can anybody help me and create a zip update to install via clockworkmod with the services.jar I backed up?
services.jar: http://www.mediafire.com/?b7ib6q8z4fa0z5z
Is there any other way to replace it manually in clockworkmod?
thnx

Here, attached. The file on mediafire is larger than "my" stock services.jar though, don't know what that is about.
Anyway, flash it via CWM, wipe dalvik-cache, and you should have your original back.
Now that I've done you a favor, you can do me one: Look up ADB on the .net. Even on an unrooted phone you can boot into CWM, mount /system and run ADB-commands to replace single files like this. It will probably save you some time.
ok so im trying to put together a modded stock ROM
so I've pulled and extracted the /system folder and the boot.img
I've added root to the system.
removed some bloat
anyway I need a updater script, I've read about how to write one but I think it may be easier to call on some help.
I want to put together a solid base to port off

Yank one from an existing ROM. That's about the easiest route. This way will also give you an idea of the layout of a zip ROM. The updater-script and updater-binary are located in /META-INF/com/google/android. If memory serves. LOL.
