[SOFTWARE]GOOGLE Stuffer - FOR BARE BONE ROMS

Howdy Ho
Right then with all the controversy with GOOGLE not being happy with cyan distributing there apps with his roms....
I HAVE THE SOLUTION
This Software will Take a BARE BONES ROM (no google apps included) and will basically aslong as you have a back up copy of these google apps will UnZip the ROM, Stuff it with your backup apps, ReZip the ROM and SIGN it so you have a fully fleshed out ROM to go out and update
Just to add this is just a test app to demonstrate a method to combat google threats make sure u check back when cyan releases bare bone app for update
HAPPY DAYS

Does this only do Google Apps ?
or can it account for proprietary HW Manufacturers supplied files as well???
~enom~

There are four simple steps on how to use the program which you will see once you open it, you must already have the google apps backed up as i cannot distribute them(obviously lol) but there are scripts available around here which will pull all the google apps from your current rom and back them up, i may include this next time i get a chance to program

Glad to see we are already getting solutions to bypass Google's lockdown. Just happy that I already have the ROM with the new market and YouTube

it will push whatever apps you have backed up into system/app then zip it up and sign it ready for updating. tho i would not place any old app in there because it will save them all in the phones memory

Nice going. :]

You need to coordinate with Farmatito and his thread <HERE>. He has developed a script that backs up all the necessary files. But they don't all exist in /system/app. We need to all coordinate on these things so that effort doesn't end up getting duplicated and wasted.

This should be migrated into CM-Updater
Does this mean everybody is happy again?

ya this is a good idea. so we can get back up and running legal like ! great work to all doing this.plus i think Cyanogen is working on a app to do this to? my main apps is just google i want to back up i use them all the time .

Good point i think if were going to use an app to do this we will need to pull in all our efforts together so we can have the full monty in one app,
just looking through that script though and im wondering if it is actually necessary to pull all of those apps? i think it would be necessary to chat with cyan to get the specific apps that he will be removing from his roms, but this is a start.... at the moment this app is useless as there are no bare bone roms lol but its a light in the right direction

For the backing up part its just a matter of updating the lists of files and
the name of the archive. The infrastructure, error checking and testing
is already there. The needed binaries (zip) are compiled and tested.
BTW do you prefer zip or tar.gz archives (can do both) ?

[MetaMorph][07/14/2010] Kevlar Mash V1.69 (Most ROMs)

You can thank stephen730 for me removing all my work. Tired of jackass's

Thanks man, gonna put the signal icons on mine now

Kevlar, it looks awesome

Kevlar,
Looks great installed on v12 Does this only work on Aloysious roms. I tried to put it over sense able said not enough memory funny thing is I have less internal memory on v12 and it installed fine.

Re: [MetaMorph] Kevlar Mash (Aloysius v9-v12)
I think only works for sprint based ports cuz of file names. It doesn't replace whole file, just a few inside.
Sent from my pers0nal r0m using Tapatalk

locksreen looks tight

Found an error with it. It didnt update signal bars. Updated and reuploaded. Its same file name. Next release I am working on is new Rosie and if possible, time removed from status bar. I am learning, so bare with me.

So please bare with me on this. This is all new to me. v02 fixed the issue where not everything in the taskbar was updated as well when you hold down the power button. There are a few new icons there as well.

added thm version for those using the old version of MM. From now on, I will upload both versions.

i PMed ya Kevlar

good **** bro!
congrats on ur first release

Updated. Will be making a special version just for Aloyius snow in the next few hours.

Great thanks! Good work!

Your packages won't install, ssays there not certified when trying to install them. This is from the boot loader on my phone not from adb. Or is adb required. Either way when i get home i can just download the apk's from my phone redo the files and resend them which is the long way to do this but I can't be the only one who is having trouble.

This is not a flash update, hence the title, MetaMorph. You must use that app to install this theme and any other theme for Metamorph. There is a free version on the market. FYI, there are not apks in here. That is not how MM works.

Well the files are the same, and im assuming it replaces them just as i would on the computer. I would just do it through adb if i was home.

[FIX]Offline RCTweaks by RCTeam|Sebastiaan15|Prof Peach

First, lets clarify the credits:
RCTeam provided the tweaks in the first place
Sebastiaan15 fixed tweaks scripts to use files stored od sdcard instead of hosted ones on Robociks server (which are down) for his rom (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1315961&highlight=runnymede+aio)
Prof Peach for creating a flashable zip for desire (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1517975&highlight=tweaks+fix)
all i did was fix the updater script to work on DHD, and fix the tweaks scripts where necesary, because desire uses sd-ext for some system files
what is this
this is a fix for all of us still using sense 3.5 roms with RCTweaks, which makes pretty much all of the tweaks work again without using the offline server(fonts,bootanims,oc daemons...). this changes tweaks scripts to use files stored on sdcard(included in zip). everything should work, except settings/rctweaks/extras/recommended apps(avalible in play store) and updating of the rctweaks. if you find something else not working, please report and i will do my best to fix it.
how to
i would recommend to do a nand backup first, just in case
flash zip through recovery like any other flashable zip
do not delete /sdcard/.RCTeam folder, the files needed for the tweaks are in there!
do not click on update tweaks in settings/rctweaks/extras because it will delete tweaks apk and you will have to manually push it back
i found this fix a while back while trying to locate a flashable zip of virtuous oc via google. i had no idea where it came from or how it works. Thank you Prof Peach for providing a source for that zip, so i am able to give proper credits.
tested on
for now, only RCMix 4.0
i think it should work on any sense 3.5 rom which uses RCTweaks. so if anyone is willing to test on any other rom, please report so i can add to this post
my edited update script(originally made by Prof Peach) is very basic. it works for me in 4ext, i havent tested in cwm
and for the end, standard disclaimer: i am not responsible if anything goes wrong. i will try my best to help, but my knowledge is very limited. also, please dont bug people in credits for the mistakes i might have made
download

if you like this, and would like to thank someone, please thank all the people in credits before me, it is mostly their work not mine

Works great, thanks!

it cant work, because this does not contain full rctweaks, neither does arhd. if you have rctweaks installed, status bar should come back after reboot.
if none of this is the case, extract /system/app/systemui.apk from original rom zip and push via adb, or copy to same folder on your device using root explorer or something similar .dont forget to set permissions rw-r-r

thank you ,it's working with rctweaks V2 for runnydroid 5.1.......great job !!

Having an issue downloading... It won't download...

Download dont works,any help..other mirror?

well, i made a test on my rom, and the scripts themselves work, but in my case camera obviously uses built in sounds(in apk), which makes it not "see" the changes. i looked in patchas roms zip and sound files are in same place then rcmix. so i guess your case is the same as mine. check camera settings

I installed lyapota camera for runny and is working great thanks

¶Stuff from Stock ROM 2.3.6¶

For those who want to have Samsung Bloatware on Custom ROMs, I uploaded these on my Dropbox account.
ODEXED APPS (XXLI1 firmware)
ODEXED FRAMEWORK (XXMD1 firmware)
ODEXED APPS (XXLD3 firmware) Thanks to bittertruth277
These Apps are odexed. This means you will need to download the .odex file which has the same name as the app too (Odexed apps give you better Performance, Faster boot and more battery life but they are very difficult to modify).
DEODEXED APPS + Superuser.apk (XXMC1 firmware)
These apps are deodexed. This means you only need to download the .apk (Deodexed apps have the opposite properties of Odexed apps).
How to install an app as System app
1. Goto /system/app
2. Place the .apk (and the .odex) there
3. Now set both the permission rw-r-r
4. Now reboot and you're done
Another Stuff from Stock ROM
Stock Ringtones

You beat me to it! Where were you when I needed you?
Hello All. This is my first post so please forgive any lapses in protocol. I am a complete noob. To tell you the truth, I am still reeling from watching that sign up video. Man that is VERY INTIMIDATING.
Anyway, I only signed up to firstly thank all the people who contribute to this wonderful site (I have referenced it many times over the last few months and learnt 'alot' as a result) and secondly to try and give something back to the community. Specifically, I was going to ask permission to upload stock apk's for the Samsung Galaxy Ace S5830i with Gingerbread 2.3.6 (especially the browser which I know are difficult to find). However, the OP definitely beat me to it.
It's quite funny but I wish I had found this post a few days ago when I was looking for the stock browser apk files for my own phone. I was a bit careless with titanium backup and ended up deleting alot of bloatware and the browser. I kept getting through to the 2.3.4 thread and can confirm they didn't work with the 2.3.6 version.
I have noticed that you reference XXLD1 build. Mine shows as XXLD2 so I don't know if that means my files will be different or the same.
FYI, I am in the UK and on the TESCO MOBILE network. I think it shares it's infrastructure with O2. If any body does need files please say and I will try to upload them (I have to learn how to, first).

You all see? That's what i call a newbie, and not a noob. You are not a noob. A noob asks tons of times questions that were already answered. Welcome to Xda, i say. I hope you contribute a lot for this forum, as well as i hope you find this forum useful. For uploading your files, try Dropbox or Mediafire (i think Dropbox is easier to use). Files from other stock are LIKELY not to work on your stock, as well as they may work, though. And if it doesn't works, why don't you upload your apk's? They might be useful to another user. Again, welcome to XDA.
Ps.: my reaction to that video was the same.

XXLD2 apps?
Are there any stock apk/odex files for the 2.3.6 S5830iXXLD2?
Or are any of these compatable? i accidentally deleted some of the stock apps, and now i can't update via Play store. I also get a lot of errors that some proccesses can't start or crashed. I tried factory reset, but i guess once the stock stuff is deleted.. it's deleted for good.

[ROM] OctamodWear - Stock + root + busybox + Reboot2Recovery

CAUTION!! This ROM is mostly made for developers and people interested in developing for Samsung Gear Live. I take no responsabilities for possible damages to your device.
Hi everyone.
I open a new thread here in General because I have not enough posts for posting in Development, and I don't want to spam other threads only for posting there. Moderators can move this if they want.
We have here the first Custom ROM for Samsung Gear Live: OctamodWear
Currently we have very few new features, but this is only the beginning.
Features
- OctamodWear 0.2
- KMV78Y based
- Fully deodexed
- Root
- Busybox
- WearControl, the system management app. Reboot2Recovery is gone; install WearControl from PlayStore to ensure you always have the latest version: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=octathorp.wearcontrol
- ES File Explorer and Quick System Info preinstalled
- OctamodWear 0.1
- KMV78X based
- Root
- Busybox
- Reboot2Recovery, it's an app made by me that let you reboot in recovery mode (interesting for use with custom recoveries).
- ES File Explorer and Quick System Info preinstalled (mainly, for developing purposes. I included them because it was a pain to install again with each data-wipe during tests).
Important
- Superuser permissions (root) are enabled by default, without Superuser or similar app. So, whatever app that you install and require root permissions will obtain them. That's due to the fact that there is no Superuser app for Android Wear yet.
- We need unlocked bootloader in order to be able to install the ROM (fastboot oem unlock).
- This system (Android Wear) is still very recent, and there are many things we don't know, despite its similarities with Android.
Work-in-progress...
- Get a better battery consumption.
- Improve performance
- Other things I have not thought about yet
Installation
If you don't have unlocked bootloader, follow this steps:
- Connect using ADB and run "adb reboot bootloader"
- In the bootloader screen, run "fastboot oem unlock". Warning!! This will wipe the device.
- Once you have unlocked the bootloader, the next step is to flash the provided system.img, using "fastboot flash system system_octamodWear.img"
- Done!

TWRP for our smartwatch (thanks to Dees_Troy): http://forum.xda-developers.com/gear-live/orig-development/recovery-twrp-2-7-1-0-touch-recovery-t2828336
Original thread: http://www.htcmania.com/showthread.php?t=868149
I will try to help you if you need it, but please, there are a lot of pages on the web where you can get information about ADB drivers or bootloader unlocking effects, so please, use Google.
Furthermore, I don't have much free time due to work and personal life, so this ROM will not have a very fast development. My main purpose is to give people something they can start working with, and make a great development community.
Enjoy it!

You sir are a genius!
I borked my phone installing TWRP and flashing this ROM was the only way I fix my watch! Thank you!

It is pre rooted as stated above. And yes its very good. Includes a file manager, which is handy....
Dev, presumably we should not install any OTA's?

This is the best day EVER!! Thank you so very much!!

Hey @octathorp I just received an update a couple days ago and did it... I assume the update would not be compatible with this ROM, or can I still install this ROM? Thanks!
Update is KMV78Y by the way.

Hi.
I have not received the update yet, so i don't really know. It should work well, because this is only system.img, but i'm gonna update the base rom as soon as I receive the update.
One thing i forgot to post some days ago... I've made an app that lets you reboot your device into recovery or bootloader, as well as changing CPU governors. It's Reboot2Recovery replacement, and it will be included in next release. Meanwhile, you can get the app from Play Store, searching "WearControl" (sorry i cannot post links yet).
I'll update the OP.

Return to Stock?
What would be the best way to return to stock? My guess would be to flash the system img that Adam Outler posted but want to make sure that I'm correct. I got excited and flashed this without backing up on TWRP first.

Hey is it possible to put the ROM in flashable form for TWRP?! Would make it much easier to install

That's a good idea I will try in next days, but only as a concept. If it works well, i will try to launch next update through a flashable update.zip

Awesome man! I know you said in OP that you are very busy and stuff, would be appreciated though if you got the flashable working, then I can flash stuff on the watch like I do on my phone, so easy.... instead of having to go thru ADB!

I've installed the rom but I don't see any of the included applications listed in the launcher I'm using them.
I can access them though using start tho. Anyone know how to get them into the launcher?
Octathorp, do you want a copy of my backup of KMV78Y?

Link to the update from KKV81 to KMV78Y Just out of interest

I use the Mini Launcher and all the icons appear that way....without going to start first!
I lost the update a few days ago, and oddly enough it popped up right away after I rebooted my watch when I installed this rom..I swiped left and it told me it was downloaded, and ready to install..I clicked ok..and it took me to TWRP and didnt install lol...anyway, all is running smooth...lets see how battery life it compared to stock

That would be great, thank you. I will use it in case I don't receive Y update.
I use WearMini Launcher and have no problems at all.

Battery life should be the same as stock, as there are no power optimizations yet, but you could try WearControl with powersave mode instead.

See your PM's
I use wear mini launcher too but cant get es file explorer, quick system info or reboot2recovery to show. Very odd

I've updated first post with new OctamodWear 0.2 version. Sorry it is not an update.zip yet, but i'm working on it

thank ya!!! The dowload is painfully slow ...around 2 hours?? The first time I got it,. the md5s didnt match

First thanks for the first custom rom for the Gear Life!
Does anybody have a mirror? Dev Host is really slow, 1 hour to download 146mB :silly:
Would be much appreciated :highfive:

I dont actually use any file sharing sites myself
