i am just copying and pasting capez's work all... credits goes to him
here's the guide...
1) First of all, you need to download and install APK MANAGER:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=695701
2) Extract with WinRAR, from the ROM you want to modify, the file framework-res.apk, that you can find in the directory \System\framework\.
3) Go to the apk manager folder and place the framework-res.apk file in the folder "place-apk-here-for-modding".
4) In the apk manager folder, double click on the file "Script". A cmd window will open.
5) Where it says "Please make your decision", write "22" and enter. Then enter "1" and enter. Then enter "9" and enter.
The script will decompile the framework-res.apk.
6) Now go to your apk manager folder, go to Projects\framework-res.apk\res\anim\.
In this folder there are the animations of your rom. They consist in some .xml files decompiled.
7) Download this:
http://www.mediafire.com/?1qjwtotg1r8umm1
8) Copy the files from the folder "anims" of the zip downloaded into the anim folder and you are asked to replace the files; choose yes. Then copy also the files from the folder "other_files" to the anim folder.
9) Now go to your apk manager folder, go to Projects\framework-res.apk\res\values\. Edit the file integers.xml and put these two lines under the line of "shortAnimTime":
<integer name="config_activityShortDur">150</integer>
<integer name="config_activityDefaultDur">220</integer>
Save.
10) Return to Script. Enter "11" and enter.
The script will rebuild the framework-res.apk.
11) You are asked if this is a system application. Enter "y" and enter. Then a second question appears. Enter newly "y".
12) Then after it processes, Don't press anything & DON'T CLOSE THIS WINDOW!!! A new folder "keep" is created in the apk manager folder. Go inside it and delete the file "resources.arsc". Now go inside keep\res\anim\ and delete every file with the same name as every file of the "anims" folder of the zip downloaded.
Then return to Script and press enter. It processes, then if everything went ok, in the folder "place-apk-here-for-modding" a file "unsignedframework-res.apk" is created. Copy it outside and rename it "framework_res.apk".
13) Now you can create a flashable zip or you can simply push it to your system.
CONGRATRULATIONS!!! YOU ARE DONE!!!
And if you think this tutorial is useful, CLICK THANKS!!!

Np Cool guide.
just testing,i'll let u know about result
edit 2 : sorry for the first edit i was mistaken,it works great
Probably better suired in Android themes and apps
good tutorial! But I suggest you to mention that IT NEEDS to resign the apk after the tutorial is finished....we need to take the META-INF from the res apk decompiled, then open the unsigned apk, delete its META-INF and paste the META-INF from the original framework-res.apk...otherwise it won't work!
Interesting, thanks.
Very nice, thanks for details.

Yep, I trust you, and I was surprised too when the ROM doesn't boot cause resources apk usually don't need to be signed at all, but once I signed the frame everything work.. strange.. anyway don't care about it, the tutorial is very clear and well organized well done and Thanks

This is a detailed tutorial about modifying or making your own custom roms....but not as regular method... It is a new method...
So...lets start....
In this Guide...you will come to know how to--
Modifying rom..
Adding apps and removing..
Changing bootanimation, rom's name, fonts, ringtones...etc.
A new and easy method to make the rom....
::Requirements::
Galaxy Mini..
A windows PC.
Some basic knowledge..
Time and Patience(most imp)
::Important Tools::
7zip or any other zip manager>>Download Here<<
Update Zip Packager>>Download Here<<
Notepad++ >>Download Here<<
Dsixda's Kitchen..(OPTIONAL)..>>XDA Link<<
::About "BaseRom".zip::
Now, suppose, your base rom is CyanogenMod7.zip...
So...when u will extract that zip...u will see there...
META-INF (Folder)
system (Folder)
boot.img
META-INF :
This folder contains the files which are related to your recovery....in simple words...these files guide your recovery to flash zip, set permissions and some other things...
So...the change that we want here is to add the text that our recovery shows while flashing the rom...look in the extras for the tut...
boot.img :
This file contains Kernel of ur rom....and it also contains splash screen of ur rom....which u can edit...!! Look in extras..
NOW, the main thing..
::Main Tutorial::
Download your base rom and flash it....(without editing anything).
Flash Gapps..
Flash some other material such as Bravia Engine, Audio Enhancements, Scripts, Tweaks, etc
Flash each n every thing that you want in your rom...
Flash any theming material..which u want in ur rom
If you are modifying some system apps such as phone.apk, systemui.apk, framework-res.apk....then modify them one by one and flash them..
When you are done your theming, tweaking, and rest of the things...(now, you are running your rom having your desired theme, scripts, tweaks...)
Now....go to CWM recovery and do a Nandroid backup..
After the backup is completed...locate to the folder in sd-card where the backup file is created..(SD-Card>clockworkmod>backup>.....)
In this "backup" folder...you will see a folder named as the date when you have taken the backup..
In that folder...you will see a file - system.ext4.tar.
Copy that system.ext4.tar file in your PC...
Extract the file...you will see a folder - system
Now, this "system" folder is your Rom's system folder.. having all scripts, tweaks and theming...
Just delete the folder "lost+found" in that system folder and take this folder to the folder where your META-INF and boot.img are...
IMPORTANT:You have to delete "xbin" folder from the extracted system folder and then u have to copy and paste the original xbin folder to that folder..
::Extras::
Editing build.prop :
Locate to the system folder....open build.prop and edit it as you want by adding lines to it...refer this link...
Adding and Removing Apps :
Under system>>app folder copy the apps that you want to add to your rom...also remove the apps that you want...but click here to know the list of apps that can be removed...
Adding UI print to the meta-inf :
Locate to the file updater-script (META-INF>com>google>android>updater-script).
Open the file updater-script with Notepad++...
Scroll down to the last line of the matter...
Copy and paste the following code exactly below the last line
ui_print("Have A Nice Day");
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
You should type your own desired text at the place of Have A Nice Day..(with "....")
Done!!
After u have done....leave the META-INF folder as it is....for now..
Editing Splash Screen :
Extract the boot.img by using dsixda's kitchen....it is very easy...
After that....refer to this LINK for editing boot splash screen......and then repack the boot.img again using dsixda's kitchen
Editing boot animation of rom :
Download your desired bootanimation.zip.
Rename it "bootanimation.zip".
Now, locate to the folder system>media
You will see a file bootanimation.zip there..
Replace that file with your desired boot animation..(renamed)..
Done!!
Adding ringtones :
Take your ringtone file...it should be in .ogg format..If not then convert it to .ogg..
Locate to the folder system>media>audio>ringtones>
Copy and paste your .ogg files here in ringtones folder..
You can also change notifications, alarm and UI tones like this..
Changing the Fonts :
Take your desired font.ttf file and rename it as DroidSans.ttf..
Locate to the folder system>fonts>
Now, replace the file DroidSans.ttf with your desired DoridSans.ttf...
To change the lock screen clock font...replace the Clocktopia.ttf with your desired one..(rename first)..
Changing the ROM's name :
Note: It will be shown in settings>about phone>
Open build.prop with Notepad++
Find the line-
ro.cm.version="Base rom's name"
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Type your rom's name instead of "Base rom's name"..
Save..
Done!!
Theming Your Rom :
Refer to the following links for theming guides-
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1422116
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=916814
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1342895
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=821638
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1469987
Now you have your MODIFIED : -
META-INF (folder)
system (folder)
boot.img
::Creating your ROM.zip::
Extract the provided UpdateZipPackager.zip
You will see->>placehere(folder)
>>others(folder)
>>script.bat
Now, copy your modified META-INF, system and boot.img in the folder "placehere" in UpdateZipPackager..
Run the script.bat in UpdateZipPackager..
It will ask something...type "n" and press enter..
Now, you will see a list in the script window...
Choose option 2 and press enter..
It will create an update.zip...
This is your roms zip..
Flash your rom and upload it to XDA..!!! Enjoy..!!
Plz...press thanks if I helped you with this guide...

Great tutorial OJ.....
This should help many who want to create their own roms, but I also fear xda will now get flooded with themed or modified roms.
thats an awesome tutorial buddy
Thanks a lot

Greats,, its fast to make a custom rom
all app data will be in the rom that we have creat?????causs i don't want my sms and other thing to be in the rom that i will make.....pleazzz anwers....

NO, it won't be there.... ALl your apps and data will not be in this rom as we've not included the data folder data.ext4.tar (which is the one to store all your data).
SO, don't worry much about it.

Use titanium Backup to backup your apps and Some SMS backup app from market...many of them are available..Then after installing neW ROM just restore
em..thats how i do it
easy and simple
A problem i am facing is..i have created around 2-3 update.zip like the way mentioned above...following every procedure...but while Installing througg CWM it says...Installation aborted

Check your framework-res.apk for errors...as well as...check your meta-inf...try with an unedited meta-inf...and also..dont forget to replace that xbin folder with the original one...from base rom...also delete lost + found folder taken from system.ext4.tar ...try everything freshly..dont make anything wrong in update zip packager..in options selection...u will surely get success..

After I did the nandroid backup and went my backup folder, I only saw a "system.img" file inside the other folder - no "system.ext4.tar" ...what should I do in this case?
Oj-buddy, I am trying to follow your guide to make a custom ROM, but I find myself in a spot. You said that after I do the nanadroid backup, I'm supposed to go to: sdcard/clockworkmod/backup/(dated folder which contains my rom) where I will see "system.ext4.tar", but that's not what I see ;these are the files I see: android_ secure.img, boot.img, cache.img, data.img, nandroid.md5, recovery.img, sd-ext.img, system.img.....what should I do at this point?

You should use latest CWM recovery for it.....
or you can also extract system.img with magicISO tool...
both system.img and system.ext4.tar are same files..
I want to share this to make everyone know how I port it to our device so I shouldn't share it to just one or two people.
It is based on this proxuser thread, credit goes to him. I just make it details and make it work for our device.
We will make MIUIv4 framework to run on top of CM9/AOSP base. So we should prepare CM9 base and MIUIv4 to port. You can use any MIUIv4 to port but you can try by choosing the one which similar hardware with our device.
- Prepare extracted CM9 base rom in folder A, and extracted MIUIv4 rom in folder B. Copy file framework.jar, framework-res.apk and services.jar at /system/framework from CM9 folder save them in folder C. After here, we will port from folder B to folder A.
- Remove folder /system/framework and /system/app in folder A and replace them from folder B.
- Remove /system/app/nfc.apk, since our device don't have this feature.
- Copy all *.db and *.td at /system/etc from B to A.
- replace media folder in /system/media at folder B to folder A.
- copy content-types.properties file to /system/lib from B to A.
- copy miui-framework.xml at etc/permission
- copy /system/xbin/invoke-as and /system/xbin/su from folder B to A
- copy /system/lib/liblbesecs.so from folder B to A
- add this lines to updater-script file in folder B:
set_perm(0, 0, 06755, "/system/xbin/invoke-as");
set_perm(0, 0, 0755, "/system/lib/liblbesec.so");
- change values from build.prop
ro.build.version.incremental=2.x.x (version number of MIUIv4)
ro.config.ringtone=MI.ogg
ro.config.notification_sound=FadeIn.ogg
ro.config.alarm_alert=GoodMorning.ogg
ro.config.sms_received_sound=FadeIn.ogg
ro.config.sms_delivered_sound=MessageComplete.ogg
Test the new port:
Now pack folder B to zip files and sign it and flash it using CWM. You should prepare the other working rom to get back to previous rom .
Use adb logcat to debug, and see the result. If it doesn't shown anything, then we should replace libandroid_runtime.so from MIUIv4, but not in my case, I kept it from CM9.
Our device is based on Qualcomm so with our new CM9 theme engine will affected, it will got hung on boot with unresolved at android/content/res/AssetManager. Just break the logcat when it shown some lines with "died" things and scroll up, you'll find it.
So here is the next step which will take more time. You should able to decompile and recompile jar/apk files, Google it for that, it's very easy to do that. We'll go for smaling and baksmaling here. And for comparing, use an application such as winmerge for windows or Meld for linux.
Remember that we have some files in folder C from CM9 and we'll use that as source for smaling steps.
- find /smali/android/content/res/assetManager.smali from framework.jar on Miuiv4 and compare it with the same file from CM9 one, replace all missing lines.
- copy missing method in /smali/android/hardware/Camera.smali
- copy missing method in /smali/android/os/Power.smali, method SetUnstableMemoryState the important one.
- copy /smali/android/server/BluetoothA2dpService*.smali
- copy /smali/android/content/res/PackageRedirectionMap*.smali
- copy /smali/org/codeaurora/Performance.smali
- copy smali/android/media/MediaRecorder*.smali
- copy /smali/android/view/GLES20Canvas*.smali
- copy /smali/android/net/wifi/WifiNative.smali
- copy /smali/android/graphics/paint*.smali
I found them by watching logcat, fixing one by one error on each boot, so now you can save much time by using this guide.
If still stuck, I look for some lines like this:
E/dalvikvm( 234): ERROR: couldn't find native method
E/dalvikvm( 234): Requested: Lxxxxxxx/xxxxxxx/xxxxxxxx;.yyyyyyyyyyyyyZ)I
E/JNIHelp ( 234): RegisterNatives failed for 'xxxxxxx/xxxxxxx/xxxxxxxx', aborting
F/libc ( 234): Fatal signal zzzzzz at 0xdeadbaad (code=1)
Then the problem is in xxxxxxx/xxxxxxx/xxxxxxxx.smali file, try to fix it first by adding missing lines in it if possible or copy xxxxxxx/xxxxxxx/xxxxxxxx*.smali if there is so many different lines.
You should see the MIUIv4 lockscreen if you done fixing all those problem.
After this we can fixing anothers, like 2G/3G data and headset.
To fix headset, it's in WiredServiceObserver.smali in framework-res.apk, find the path string which contain "h2w" word with "headset_sensor" word, remember just paths string, no else. It should be 3 words to replace.
Now to fix 2G/3G data,
replace RIL*.smali and copy LGEQualcommRIL*.smali at path
/smali/com/android/internal/telephony ín framework.jar.
You also need to patch PhoneFactory.smali to construct your class instead of RIL:
find "RIL" word (there will be 2 entries) and replace them to "LGEQualcommRIL".
Fuih..... That what I've learned of porting MIUIv4 guys...
Soon will be born more porters... Great!!!
Happy porting...!!!!

Then the problem is in xxxxxxx/xxxxxxx/xxxxxxxx.smali file, try to fix it first by adding missing lines in it if possible or copy xxxxxxx/xxxxxxx/xxxxxxxx*.smali if there is to many different.
You should see the MIUIv4 lockscreen if you done fixing all those problem.
After this we can fixing anothers, like 2G/3G data and headset.
To fix headset, it's in WiredServiceObserver.smali in framework-res.apk, find the path with contain "h2w" word with "headset_sensor" word, remember just paths string, no else. It should be 3 words to replace.
Now to fix 2G/3G data,
replace RIL*.smali and copy LGEQualcommRIL*.smali at path
/smali/com/android/internal/telephony ín framework.jar.
You also need to patch PhoneFactory.smali to construct your class instead of RIL:
find "RIL" word (there will be 2 entries) and replace them to "LGEQualcommRIL".
Fuih..... That what I've learned of porting MIUIv4 guys...
Soon will be born more porters... Great!!!
Happy porting...!!!!

if you get boot loop,now you almost get the miui working and please follow this step
So here is the next step which will take more time. You should able to decompile and recompile jar/apk files, Google it for that, it's very easy to do that. We'll go for smaling and baksmaling here. And for comparing, use an application such as winmerge for windows or Meld for linux.
Remember that we have some files in folder C from CM9 and we'll use that as source for smaling steps.
- find /smali/android/content/res/assetManager.smali from framework.jar on Miuiv4 and compare it with the same file from CM9 one, replace all missing lines.
- copy missing method in /smali/android/hardware/Camera.smali
- copy missing method in /smali/android/os/Power.smali, method SetUnstableMemoryState the important one.
- copy /smali/android/server/BluetoothA2dpService*.smali
- copy /smali/android/content/res/PackageRedirectionMap*.smali
- copy /smali/org/codeaurora/Performance.smali
- copy smali/android/media/MediaRecorder*.smali
- copy /smali/android/view/GLES20Canvas*.smali
- copy /smali/android/net/wifi/WifiNative.smali

If still stuck, I look for some lines like this:

but in miui, assetmanager.smali is given like
invoke-direct/range {v0 .. v0}, Ljava/lang/Object;-><init>()V
So replace only the missing lines or also correct these lines??
and bro in cm9 bluetootha2dpservice$1.smali the line is
move-result-object v5
.line 113
.local v5, action:Ljava/lang/String;
const-string v28, "android.bluetooth.adapter.action.STATE_CHANGED"
but in miui bluetootha2dpservice$1.smali
.line 72
invoke-virtual {p2}, Landroid/content/Intent;->getAction()Ljava/lang/String;
what to do bro??
for asset manager, just missing lines, no need to correct others.
For bluetootha2dp, replace smali files.

Unfortunatelly, I can't as I'm porting to Samsung Galaxy S2 from S3 May just share some experiences during process.
There's a lot of work with resizing & need first to boot it, that I'm currently working on.
I've got a request on this guide, just to add some more bbcode formatting.
Thanks for all this, hope It'll be helpful.

[MOD] Internal <> External storage "swap" for 4.2.2. Simply, easy, safe.
UPDATE 26.06.2013
OK, we are alive again!
Some users have reported about boot loop. Use it at your own risk (be ready to use backup or ExternalStorageRestore).
ExternalStorageFullSwap_v1 for 10.3.A.0.423 DEODEX
ExternalStorageRestore_v1 for 10.3.A.0.423 DEODEX
Install it from Recovery.
Best swap solution. No root, no init.d, no remounts, exFAT support, easy to restore, full emulated storage support (4.2.2).
System will work as usual, sdcard0 will still be internal storage, sdcard1 will still be real SD-card. But all (most) apps (and games) will use sdcard1 as global storage path (getExternalStorageDirectory).
It is for any DEODEXED ROM based on 10.3.A.0.423 (4.2.2).
Patch will replace only one file - framework.jar and will not swap sdcard0 and sdcard1 (in reality). sdcard0 will still be internal storage, sdcard1 will still be real SD-card. If anything will go wrong just restore original framework.jar.

Patches will replaces only one file - framework.jar and will not swap sdcard0 and sdcard1 (in reality). sdcard0 will still be internal storage, sdcard1 will still be real SD-card.
There are two versions:
ExternalStoragePartialSwap (recommended). Install it from Recovery. This patch is doing one simple and outstanding thing - change EXTERNAL_STORAGE_ANDROID_DATA_DIRECTORY, EXTERNAL_STORAGE_ANDROID_MEDIA_DIRECTORY, EXTERNAL_STORAGE_ANDROID_OBB_DIRECTORY to external storage (sdcard1).
Most of games and apps stores their data and cache at /sdcard0/Android/data, /sdcard0/Android/obb, /sdcard0/Android/media. sdcard0 - is internal storage. After patching games and apps will use /sdcard1/Android/data, /sdcard1/Android/obb, /sdcard1/Android/media. After patch applying you need to move Android folder from sdcard0 to sdcard1 (by any file manager). Most of all other apps will use internal storage as usual.
ExternalStorageFullSwap (not recommended). Install it from Recovery. This patch is doing one simple and outstanding thing - change EXTERNAL_STORAGE_DIRECTORY to external storage (sdcard1).
Most of all apps will use sdcard1 as internal storage. By default when apps asks for a storage dir (getExternalStorageDirectory), system returns "/storage/sdcard0". After patch it will be "/storage/sdcard1" by default.
If anything will go wrong just restore original framework.jar (DEODEX, 10.1.A.1.434) ExternalStorageRestore. Install it from Recovery.

Could you please Elaborate More- I didn't understand Because ExternalStoragePartialSwap_434.zip file contains Only one file framework,jar file.
After extracting the This jar file , I have found 3 files inside-- classes.dex, MANIFEST.MF, and preloaded-classes.
I didn't Understand for "framework.jar > android > os > Environment.smali (constructor <clinit> method)", Where Can I find this and How !
Plz explain.
Thanks-- Anil

After Flash Getting FC for user Installed App and Game not Starting
Hi,
I have flashed the ExternalStoragePartialSwap_434.zip thru TWRP in my C6602/sony Z.
I have doomloard v6 kernel and Glass Xperia V2. But after flashed i was getting FC for Linked Application using Link2SD.
Even if I unlinked the App , Still I am unable to Run. Game is also not launching.
So I have Re flashed ur ExternalStorageRestore file to Back original state.
I think this Patch need more testing.
I am also Semi Developer and tester. I have worked on Visual Studio.
Little bit I know Java.
It will help for me if you guide about What Compiler / decompiler use for Patching for framework.jar.
I have work on Eclipse.
Thanks--

I use gui apk tool for decompiling/compiling (available here) and for editing the .smali files I use notepad++.
BTW, I use Windows 7 64bit for it.

Hi,
I have decompile the framework.jar files (Both modified one and Original one).
Modifed (Your framework.jar) contains Following Line:
const-string v2, "EXTERNAL_STORAGE_DUMB"
const-string v3, "/storage/sdcard1"
Original ( from deodexed rom) contains Following Line:
const-string v2, "EXTERNAL_STORAGE"
const-string v3, "/storage/sdcard0"
So, Why have u modified ---
EXTERNAL_STORAGE To EXTERNAL_STORAGE_DUMB ???????????????
for Sdcard0 to Sdcard1 is OK.
Plz Check ?
Currently I am on progress......

EXTERNAL_STORAGE is environment variable. If it exists system will use it value (path) and not your. It is not good and you must prevent it. EXTERNAL_STORAGE_DUMB is not exist at any case.
Please do not post such questions here. This topic is not for that.
Can we use this mod with rooted stock .434 version? Is anyone tried?

No, you cann't. You need deodexed ROM.
Yep tried it on a stock rom and as he mentioned, it's not working in a stock rooted rom.
If he can manage to pull this off for stock roms it'd be really great, nice work though man. keep it up.
Can you share the smali script about swapping internal storage from framework.jar ?

Of course.
First things first, you must have Java installed on your Windows computer and set the path variables. To do this go to Control Panel>System and Security>System>Advanced, till it looks someting like this. I have downloaded the 32bit version of java. It might look different to you. Just copy the path of your java bin folder and add it to the path field. Be sure to add a semicolon after the last entry before you add it.
After that install the program from here. It requires .NET Framework, but the necessary files you will find there.
Next thing, open the GUI apktool, select your framework.jar file you extracted from the .434 firmware and decopile shown here. Be sure to keep the original, you will need it later. I unticked the "Sign recently compiled apk?" box for safety. Check always the log after decompiling/compiling before doing anything!
After that, go to the decompiled path located in your personal folder. You can simply go there by clicking "Open decompiled output directory". Don't close the program. Go to framework.jar>smali>android>os and replace the Environment.smali I posted.
Then go to the program again and compile it. Name the compiled file "framework.jar" (without the quotes) for simplicity's sake. After it successfully compiled, go to the path by clicking on "Open compiled output directory" and open it with 7zip (very useful tool). Open your original framework.jar as well. Drag and drop the classes.dex file from your recently compiled file to your original and overwrite it. Don't flash the freshly compiled file, or the ROM will not boot.
All you need to do now, is to put it into a flashable zip and flash it via recovery. For safety, make a flashable zip with your untouched framework.jar in case something went wrong.
I hope, I covered everything. If I made some errors, then anyone can correct me.
