Need help on building my theme - Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I started working on my own theme a while ago. Most of it is pretty simple stuff. Mostly work I've done using Ninja Morph. But I wanted to create a flashable zip in case I needed to wipe my phone for some reason and reapply the theme. So I looked up directions on how to create a theme(http://www.incredibleforum.com/forum/htc-incredible-themes/6020-[tutorial]-how-make-themes.html)
I followed this as best I could and put everything in a zip file and transfered it to my phone. When I tried to flash it, it gave me an error(error 6 I think). Can anyone tell me what I am missing to get this to work?
I'll attach the zip I made so anyone can take a look at it. I call it DragonBread. I am running OMFGB 1.2.0. I'll try to attach some screen shots of what it looks like on my phone too.
Edit: Ok so for whatever reason, I cant upload my zip file. I have tried both zip and rar. Any ideas?

Had to upload on media fire. Someone check this out and let me know what is going on. Thanks.

Can nobody help me with this?

first of all bro if you didnt mod any of the jars get rid of them. they are rom specific. you want framework-res.apk and com.htc.resources and any apps you modded. if you have not modded any of the apps take them out.
if you did mod a jar leave it in but it sounds like your not there yet with your experience. also if your just swapping images use 7zip on your laptop or computer. ninjamorph is fun but i only use that on my phone when im not near my laptop.
im assumig you have a dinc. is this an aosp rom your on because i dont see sense in your theme.
also your probably not getting help because to just vaguely say error 6 is not any information. post exactly what errors you are recieving and what recovery you are using. also what rom are you on? and did you use the same framework for your theme.

I didn't see anything in that link you provided in the OP about signing the zip too.

As stated in the OP I am running OMFGB 1.2.0. No sense. Yes Dinc. Hence the post in the Dinc theme forum.

Ok. CWM 2.5.x is my recovery. As for the error that is about all the info it gives me. It says error in sdcard/download/Dragonbread.zip (status 6). That's all the info it gives me so that's all the info I can give you.

I figured but you have no idea the mistakes people make on xda.
Your zip script looks good tho you have something in there Iv e never seen before. Try updating to the newest clockwork
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA Premium App

Here try this and see if it works. Upgrade your CWM to the newest version and then flash this. I removed all the apk's that you did not touch and the jar's that you have not touched and it made it alot smaller. I also updated your script to the 3.0 CWM version. Please note. IF Your ROM has a newer verion that works on the new CWM Then Upgrade it. After you flash the new CWM all backups that you have will not work as it is saved for the older version of CWM.

I looked at the script file and it had a blank line at the top before the words started. Is that supposed to be like that? I took that line out and re zipped the file and tried to flash it. It doesn't give me an error, but now it just says installation aborted. Any ideas?

No Clock Mod for EB13/EC05

Looking for a No clock mod that works with eb13/ec05, the only ones I've found are only compatible with dk28. Thanks for the help!
EDIT: Here it is, thanks to pdfmedic from http://lostandtired.com/
+1
I'll second that request
+1
i agree also
R u talking about in the notification bar? If so I have the services.jar with this mod but I'm on my phone right now. Ill post it up when I get home unless some1 else has it already or if some1 else from the viper team has my file they can post.
here is the jar that removes the time from the notification bar the file is already in a flashable zip just make sure 2 backup before flashing
Awsome!
Two quick ?s;
If I decide I want it back, what do I need to do?
And do you happen to have one that would get rid of the signal meter?
And by backup, you mean the backup that is available in clockword mod(sorry noob that's wthe "nandroid" people refer to?)?
Ok. Four questions.
to get it back all u would have 2 do is flash the stock services.jar
ill see if i can get the signal bar off also but cant guarantee it
and yes that is the back up im referring to... anytime u flahs something u should always make a back up
SRF/Bonsai users - flashing the above is NOT RECOMMENDED! The poster did not state it's compatible with either one, meaning you'll get the throttle service back... and you will not be able to boot your phone, because it's got leftover pieces of Carrier IQ left in it!
DO NOT WANT!
hence the backing up just in case... and if thats the case then please post your services.jar file and i will edit it 2 remove the clock
Thanks for the hbeadsup k0nane.

[REQ] stock theme framework/juggernaut 5.0

Is it possible for somebody to create a completely stock framework (status bar, pulldown, etc) for juggernaut 5.0? I always thought the green battery really stood out when everything else was at an understated grey color. i wish i knew how to do this myself
but i turn to the experts on here for some love. hopefully i am not the only one who wants this and there is an actual demand for this type of theme
if anybody takes on this task, i thank them greatly
All you gotta do is search for empty zip file to flash theme. Then take out framework, twframework and systemUI from original Jug. Make folder called framework put both framework in there. another folder called app and put systemui. Then without extracting the zip file/use 7zip to put both this folder in it and then flash that zip. That's all!

If you have Root explorer or something similar, you could probably copy and late the appropriate files in the correct spots and then reboot. Then you wouldn't need to sign or flash.

i thought that would have worked before too... but as soon as i pasted the new framework apk, everything force closes and i had to load up a prior backup

Are these the exact same zips you are trying to flash? if so they are not set up right for CWM to be able to apply them. Here is a CMW flash for you. Open it with 7 zip or an appropriate progam, i recomend 7zip its great. You will see the app folder and the framework folder. Place your modfied app.apks in the app folder and any modified framwork.res files in the framework folder. Dont try to mess with too much at first just framework.res twframework.res and systemui.apk make sure when you transfer images you are taking them from stock and adding them to Juggs files or you will get a force close. dont just try and take stock .res files or .apks and flash them.
hahahahahaha.... i wish i saw this sooner. i actually went ahead and pushed the stock images over the modified images i wanted into the systemui.apk within the juggernaut zip file and then reflashed it. that would have saved me loads of time configuring everything all over again. but thanks though... if this doesn't help me now, it should help me later. and it probably helps other people looking to do their own thing as well.

Is there anyone willing to port this awesome Rom?

Thanks :good:
OP says a maybe to a future update on the rom for T-Mobile but I figured to see if someone here is willing to take a stab at it.
Page 3 Has a Step by Step Picture Guide to Help Users Flash the rom easily with our phones
I have flashed AT&T touchwiz based roms before without issues. Im not sure if the same could be done with AOSP. I would say try it, but i dont want to be help accountable if your device implodes.
I just went ahead and just changed the update script. Flashed it and its working awesome so far. Guess mods can close this thread.

I do everything straight from my phone using ROM toolbox app. I just advised to use a PC so that you would not need to extract the Rom and just go straight to editing the update script file, but it can be done from our phones.
Really not that hard. Whatever ROM you have. The .zip file needs to be extracted then follow my steps one page back. Then use ROM toolbox to compress the extracted folders back to a zip then flash done.
Maybe I can make a picture guide but only if there is demand for it not going to waste my time if not.

No make the changes before flashing the rom. I guess ill start taking screenshots on how to flash the AT&T AOKP 4.2.1 Rom! Give me a few hours im at work.
Edit
scratch that Ktoonz AOKP ROM can be flashed without changing any thing to the files.
Thank you bro. Thats what we are here for to help each other lol. By the way Is that JellyBam after you changed the files. Have you ran into any bugs? How is the call quality and do you have echo?
just thought id share that i done exactly what g1master said and it worked flawlessly. all i had to do was change the d2att in the first lines to d2tmo and it worked fine. i used notepad++ to make the changed btw
Ok this is what I did. Unzip with winrar and did the steps from the op with notepad++ zip back with winrar and now that im trying to flash I get this
finding update package...
opening update package...
installing update...
installation aborted.
What am i doing wrong here?
Edit... Did the same with 7-zip and recovery aborted too.

Change Navigation Bar size to 24dpi (stock-rooted ROM)

I love my new Nexus but that horrible navigation bar kept bugging me. I don't hate the bar but the size was just aweful. Since this is my first Android device, I wanted to keep it stock. I did try a couple of ROMs but went back to stock. I kept trying to figure out how to reduce the size of the navigation bar. I tried a couple of programs. They were buggy. So, finally, shinta86 pointed me to http://chromloop.com/2013/07/how-to...on-bar-in-cyanogenmodcm10-1-on-nexus-4-guide/ that had instructions on how to decompile, change, and recompile framework-res.apk file. I gave it a go and bam, my navigation bar is smaller now. I chose to go with 24dpi. In case you would like it, I have included a link to framework-res.apk.zip file. Your device has to be rooted. You will have to replace framework-res.apk file in /system/framework with the one that you download from my link.
As with other things posted on this forum, please proceed with warning. I am not responsible for any damages to your device.

Thanks! My next goal is to see if I can move it to the side or, better yet, enable Tablet UI on stock ROM.
32 DPI for minimus ROM
Hey thanks a lot for this. although I couldn't use the file you posted, ROM not stock, the tutorial was surely very helpful!
So everyone, if you are using Minimus ROM, use this framework to get 32 DPI navbar.

Drive has made this file stupid, just download it and rename to framework-res.apk and push to relevant path
Great mod, any chance you could do 32 DPI for stock

I can't seem to get your mod to work with this ---> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2418867
Nice, may use it in the future, ATM for me, the black bar seems a very good size, much better than the first n7 bar

Try the 32dpi mod in post #7. 24dpi will be too small for Tablet UI. Also, apply the Tablet UI mod first and then this one.

That's the one I am trying. I copy the file over and reboot, but nothing changes.

Are you sure you are copying it over? When you do, the device will reboot by itself. What file explorer are you using? You may have to enable R/W as root.

I have the same problem, i tried pushing the files using one of the Toolkits and 2 file exploring apps, and couldn't get it to work.
In fact, i got a bootloop when i tried to push the file with the file explorers. I already checked the SuperSu status, made sure the file has the same permisions the original apk has, but nothing works.
I am using a stock deodexed JSS15Q rom. If you are not too busy, could you show us how to do it? Thanks.

The file I posted is for odexed ROM. I will try and post some instructions soon.
Using Root Explorer go to your edited framework-res.apk on your SD long press it and select copy then navigate back to system/framework and "paste" your edited framework-res. It will ask you if you would like to "overwrite" the current framework-res, select yes. After that flo will reboot.
If you don't have Root Explorer, it is a must for Root Users and you can find it in the Play Store.
Also, remember to backup your original framework-res.apk.
Or... Go LMT, which solves the whole problem and screen space!

Any luck with the deodexed version? I would like to try this so bad, i am considering changing to an odexed version of the rom. But correct me if
I'm wrong; with an odexed rom i would not be able to install other mods
like Dsp Manager or Extended Power Menu. Right?

Need Stock Rom

I had a backup of stock before root but when i tried to back up to it today it gave me a md5 mismatch so i couldnt back up to it. From what I seen in beaups thread that I need to be on a stock rom and stock kernal for his s-off method to work. Is there a stock rom that I could flash to use the s-off method?
I'd like this answered as well. I think andy's stock rom near the bottom of the page works, but I haven't had a confirmation yet. Also wondering if odex versus deodexed versions matter.
Same boat im in just waiting for somebody to say which one we can use when we are already rooted and unlocked. I dont know how my md5's mismatched on my stock before root backup but I can't go back to it so Im kinda stuck here until we get a answer.

Just heard andy's bonestock works trying it myself to confirm.
EDIT: Downloading the 1.1 download not the newest. Under old downloads. I would think the more stock the better.

Just tried v1.0a..... No dice.
I'd test 1.1 but for some reason it won't let me copy the zip over to my phone... Keeps saying the device has stopped working or has been disconnected. Tried many different USB ports.... Going to have to bluetooth it which is going to take even more time...

Actually I'm having more problems with this than I did trying it on 1.0a and NOS...
I'm trying to find my nandroid of stock rooted but I think it was on a drive that failed.
Linux boot, next???

Yea i got made fun of when using that lol...
SUPER MEGA ULTIMATE DISCLAIMER: IIRC = IF I REMEMBER CORRECTLY. I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF THIS DOESN'T WORK/SCREWS UP YOUR DEVICE/BRICKS/ETC. YOU ARE WARNED. THIS WORKED FOR ME IN THE PAST WITH MY GALAXY NEXUS BACKUPS USING CWMTOUCH 6.0.3.6 AND 6.0.4.3.
YOU ARE WARNED.
I HAVE NEVER USED TWRP FOR BACKUPS. IT IS A MERE SUGGESTION THAT THIS METHOD WILL WORK WITH SIMILAR RESULTS. I HAVE NEVER BROWSED A BACKUP FOR TWRP. ANY ATTEMPT YOU MAKE USING A TWRP BACKUP IS OF YOUR OWN COGNIZANCE. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.
YOU ARE WARNED.
YOU ARE WARNED.
IIRC: If you have an md5 mismatch while trying to restore in a recovery, try this process:
IF YOU HAVE A BACKUP I HIGHLY SUGGEST STORING THE BACKUP FILE ON YOUR DESKTOP JUST IN CASE!!!!
Boot into whatever ROM you're on ATM.
Browse to your ClockworkMod (or TWRP backup must have an accessible folder for it's backups) using a Root file explorer, which I happen to use "Root Explorer" and open the backup file you just made.
Inside of that will be a nandroid.md5.
Delete that file and reboot into recovery, and try restoring again.

This method did work for me several times on several backups, but root and S-Off being so new, I cannot attest that it works for the One. YOU ARE WARNED**!!

The sojo app called my issues dumb lol. It's hard to get frustrated when humor is involved with the errors.

Looks like we may have to flash the boot.img that they are talking about in the s-off thread anybody have a guide for doing that?
I take it nobody tried deleting the nandroid.md5?

I just tried looking for where the nandroid file was. I went to my sdcard on root explorer then to clockworkmod and didn't find any of my backups there. Is there another spot that i need to look in to do that?

If using CWM, they will be under the /data/clockworkmod/backup directory, not /sdcard/clockworkmod/backup.
I tried the odex stock rom, but it won't flash... Anybody have this issue?

Ok i found it it was under /data/media/clockworkmod/backup but i dont see any files inside of that that are a md5 file im going to look in the data.ext4.tar file and the system.ext4.tar.a. Does any of those ring a bell? i see the boot.img, data.ext4.tar.a, recovery.img, system.ext4.tar.a, and system.ext4.tar.b. Thats all the files inside the backup i made before i rooted.
