Hello everyone,
Can someone please inform and post a thread link of a battery mod that works on the i9001? By battery mod I mean small zip file that is installed from recovery and changes the stock battery meter

You can make it yourselt.
1. Use Root Explorer to get your framework-res.apk file
2. Go to http://uot.dakra.lt/ to customize it yourselt.
3. Go to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1253707 to download the Root-i9001-Signed.zip

If you use manveru0's kernal and recovery you can now flash the update files as they come from the kitchen

Hmm... yes, nice, but I'm not in to designing things. I was looking for something that has been already created

what's the version of your Rom?

Firmware version : 2.3.4
baseband version I9001XXKP4
Kernel Version : [email protected] #7
Build Number : GINGERBREAD.XXKP4
I use Go launcher (from my opinion it's the best), if you think otherwise please post the better launcher, I am opened to experiment others.
Many thanks,
Ciprian

I don't have a I9001XXKP4 Rom in my hard drive. If you can send your your framework-res.apk, I can make one for you.

hey guys!
just used this. twice great kitchen, really revamped some of the more boring icons on stock roms. thanks for the tip!!

1framework-res_I9001XXKP4_signed.zip is the file that I updated the updater-script so you can flash it in the in-build recovery.
1framework-res_I9001XXKP4_original_signed.zip is your original file. If there are any issues, you can flash it back in the in-build recovery.
How to:
Copy the zip file to the internal SD card, not the external one, go to recovery, flash it.

can i use it on 2.3.6 rom?

nope because you will end up in a bootloop by flashing this
its only for XXKP4

urm, Ive tried to do as you told in post number 2(by cooking it according to my own preference)
but my problem starts from step number 5
5. Update the updater-script file, resign the zip file.

I already received the cooked file
but I dont know how to change the update script and end up failing to update using the zip file.
can you please help me?
or link me to a place that really can help me to learn better on changing the update script.

try this one, I updated the updater-script, you can compare it with the one from kitchen.
PS: Forgot to update the update-binary file, now try the new one. It should work.

Thanks!!!! But I got an error that states
E:error in /tmp/sideload/package.zip
(status 2)
I wonder whats wrong.
looked in a thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1194245&page=3
and from what I understand it seems to be a problem with the update binary. But Im just an end user and this is too much for me.
anyway maybe Ill try to flash the cranium ROM and try to cook again a new one and use your update script.
cheers!!

Hi,
Is there any posibility to change framework-res.apk file without CWM? I don't want to instal CWM becouse of it has a problem with front side cam and I need this cam. It's can't be overwritten when the phone works. Maybe some adb and push command is possible.
Could you help me by describing the whole procedure? Sorry for my English.

@quest221
Can you maybe make one for Android 2.3.5 like the screenshot @ page 1?
I have baseband I9001XXKPF, Build XXKPG

I update the zip file with the new update-binary file.

Yes, I just use the recovery from Samsung, not the third-party.
Check the post #2, that's the steps. Also replace the update-binary file with the one in my zip file.

Upload your framework-res.apk file.

can't install noticounter for some reason??

Not sure what I'm doing wrong here, maybe somebody can tell me if I'm missing a step??
I am trying to install the noticounter widget and can't get it to take for some reason. I have flashed the zip file in TWRP a couple times now (it claimed it was successful, but it doesn't seem to have installed anything.)
Is there some other way of installing this that I am unaware of??

Just install it like any other app, no need to use TWRP.
Either install via ADB: adb install /path/to/app.apk
Or via Wondershare.
Alternate, download APK to your phone, use native BT file transfer and then install file.

I´we never posted any zips, here´s the correct download:
http://lundsoftwares.se/NotiCounter/NotiCounterWidget_v1.0.apk
If it looks like a zip is probably because your unpacking program makes it look like a zip.

I find sometimes when downloading apk file it downloads as a zip. Just rename from .zip to .apk
Then transfer to watch and run it on the watch

Yea, that's what must have happened.
Renaming it as a zip file worked fine however, thanks for the info.

When to flash recovery?

I found this site on how to root my Touchpad:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1390829
and this one on how to install CM onto it:
http://chrisbryson.blogspot.com/2013/09/how-to-install-android-on-hp-touchpad.html
But nothing mentions when/how to install CWM (or one of the ones listed below) as shown on the CM nightly page found below
-PhilZ Clockworkmod 6.0.4.7 (non-touch)(will backup and restore in both cwm and twrp format)
-Milaq's ClockworkMod 6.0.5.4
-Flintman's TWRP
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2592909
At what place would I flash the Recovery?

To install android you will create a folder on the touchpad called cminstall.
This folder contains the three files needed to install android - moboot, cwm and whichever version of android you prefer. Optionally you can flash gapps from this folder too.
There are much better tutorials on the web and this site than the ones you quote - the first is irrelevant to installng android, and there are better ones here on xda than the second.
Also the recoveries you mention are for installing kitkat which requires repartitioning of the file system. Prob best to stick to JB for now
Cheers

I found a tutorial here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2147284
But when I attempt to extract the Acme Installer - I downloaded ACMEInstaller5M - but when I try to extract with 7Zip to the Nova Directory it keeps giving me an error?

You don't need to extract the acmeinstaller file, just place it in Program Files/Palm, Inc, open up a terminal window and enter in the command to run it.
Of course, you do this after you have set up your cminstall folder on the touchpad.
A word of advice - I find it useful to have 2 copies of the rom you want to flash - one in the cminstall folder, and one in the root folder of the touchpad. This is because sometimes the flashing process with acme can be a bit funny, and it automatically deletes the files in cminstall once its done. I've flashed a couple of touchpads with acme and Android hasn't installed properly, so having a backup somewhere else on the touchpad is useful.
Cheers

It's been awhile since I have had to use acme but I believe it is a jar file so either use a different browser to download or change the file extension from (.zip to .jar).
Unfortunately I am not at my PC but can check later if someone else is unable to confirm this.

[THEME][TWRP] Material Curtains

Made some TWRP curtains in Material colors. These where made for my Nexus 6 but will work with any device with a QHD display (1440x2560).
Inspired by z31s1g's "Holofied" Curtains. Not as good looking but they work for me. For bonus swag use gaich's Material TWRP themes for QHD screens (based off z31s1g's).
Some screenshots for your eyeholes:
Zip file includes 20 Curtains.
But How do I replace the Curtain???
1. Download the Android Image Kitchen.
2. Extract it into any folder.
3. Drag your Nexus 6 TWRP recovery.img onto the "unpackimg.bat" file.
4. Go into ramdisk\res\images\.
5. Replace original curtain.jpg with one of my replacements (rename to curtain.jpg).
6. Go back to the starting folder and click "repackimg.bat".
7. Flash the resulting "image-new.img" from fastboot (from CMD: "fastboot flash recovery image-new.img" [without quotes]).
8. ???
9. Profit.

This may be a dumb question but where is the TWRP image on the phone or do we download a new one? I found a .twrps file in the TWRP folder but that's all.

You have to re-download the TWRP image from the official site and uncompress it to replace the curtain.jpg.
Once you have the .img file just follow the instructions at the end of first post.

OK I'm just making sure that I'm not crazy. Thanks for that I'll give it s try now
Edit: what file explorer are you using to drag it onto the unpack.IMG? I'm using efs and its not letting me move it into it even when I drag it.

If its not too much to ask, can we have one with a black background and white letters? Clean and minimal as possible? Thanks!

Can we unpack the image on the phone via Es file explorer or root explorer or do we need to it on in a PC? It won't let me unpack it by dragging it in Es file explorer.

You must be on the PC using the Windows version of Android Image Kitchen.

Titanium Backup help

i have created a titanium flashable zip v7.1.2 and then flashed the zip using TWRP. Now i want to upgrade the app to v7.2.1.2. When i tried to install the apk it failed to update.
how am i supposed to upgrade the app now?

Try to make another zip and flash it

how to make flashable zip for that version?

I thought you said that YOU made a flashable zip and flashed it. Don't ask me I don't know.
GL

Why don't you just head over to Google Play store, then download and install TB from there?

There are 2 ways. First you make a flashable zip. It's funny that you don't know how to do that, if you've already did that, but the method is to drag&drop the APK into proper folder. However remember that before doing that it should have the exact same name as the older version. And don't try to rename it in the zip later, because the zip won't be flashable anymore.
2nd method is you uninstall old titanium Backup and install a new one.
