So you just title the zip "update" then flash it?

Don't need to rename it. Just boot into recovery & select the proper zip to flash.

See and I've been renaming my roms "update" when I put them on the sd then go into recovery and it asks me to install it lol.

I remember when I had my G1 you had to rename anything you flashed to update.zip

Don't need to rename. Just flash and reboot. Should all be on there.. did the same thing l. Installed and no market. Did read about the gapps but didn't know market was a gapp. I'm still new at this but found out it was in the zip..

Anyone have the EVO camera file that I can flash through clockwork?

I found an old thread with it, but the download doesn't work anymore.
Rom manager, virtuous extra goodies section.
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA Premium App
Tried that and didn't work. Shows everything went through good, but still incredible camera.
Should be alternate or main camera toggle. It does work.

I've tried it 3 times and can't find it anywhere after I flash it.
I don't see that you responded to my post in your other camera thread, but here's a piece of it that may be relevant:
byrong said:
What version of recovery are you using? Have you tried manually booting to recovery and flashing rather than going through RM?
I ask these questions because it's possible that you are running a new version of recovery 3.x and trying to use the old update script. If you try it manually then you'll be able to see if it is failing to update (going through RM will just reboot and you won't realize it failed).

Here's an old zip from Virtuous:
http://files.virtuousrom.com/inc/extras/virtuous-install_evo_camera.zip
If you can't successfully flash, extract the apk from the zip and use root explorer to copy it to system/apps
Then just make sure to set the permissions properly on the file and reboot - that should do it

Thanks! I'll try that.
I have it. do you want it for an EVO based rom or Incredible framework, on a ROM like SkyRaider which is 100% incredible framework the EVO camera will work.. but it makes it so you can't send MMS msg...
I'm running virtuous so I would need it for that rom.

Can I also get the 100% Incredible framework version? Thanks.
I had that problem with the latest clockwork. Do you know if that camera will work on an incredible with Gingerbread?

I really need someone to teamview with me

i'm having so much trouble trying to start all this rooting stuff up. i got a rom on my phone and stuff. that was easy, now i'm trying to change boot animation i don't get what you do i downloaded sdk manager or whatever but it doesnt let me drag the zip files in or anything.
Are you on a sense based or aosp rom?

What boot animation are you trying to use? Post the link.
Most of them are flashable if they are in zip format, you do that through recovery. If the file is PC36IMG.zip though, that's through your boot loader.
Also what recovery are you on?

its alright, i really just want a rom that has close to outstanding battery life, then i want to be able to change to my favorite boot animation and a nice lockscreen and has tethering that works mine isn't working.

its just droid x one, i want with volume, and i dont get what you mean by what recovery? i have clockwork recovery when i go to recovery and ****
Clockwork recovery is your recovery. The name "recovery" is a little misleading personally but whatever. Anyhow, I dont think it's possible to get sounds on your boot animation since you are using miui (aosp roms don't have it built in). I think there is a thread around here about getting them, I just don't know where. Search for it if you like.
To get the actual animation though, just put the bootanimation.zip file on your sd card, not in any folders or anything. Then go into your recovery (clockwork), and flash bootanimation.zip from there. No need to wipe anything usually.
The instructions listed on that thread you linked are for doing it from your computer, a little more complicated than mine.
Sent from my hand with XDA Premium installed
will try thanks
said that installiation aborted, can you recommened a rom to use? i'm still searching for a fav
MIUI lets you change boot animation and sound through the Theme Manager. The files are stored in different locations than on any other rom. If you'll link me to the file I'll make you a mtz file to use in Theme Manager and you can set any sound as the boot sound.

Try wiping cache and dalvik then reflashing the rom over itself. Don't wipe data and everything will be the way it was before the reflash. You can also try fixing permissions through Rom Manager or in Amon Ra recovery "fix apk uid mismatches". If you do both of these and the Theme Manager still doesn't work, the mtz file won't work.
I'm a little busy, but I'll go ahead and start on it. When I'm done I'll post it here along with directions assuming you get Theme Manager to work.

Well an mtz file won't work on that rom. I don't think the boot animation will work the way it's currently set up. I'll try it on my phone and see. If it doesn't work then the file names will need to be changed. I can do this for you but it will probably be tomorrow before I can finish it. If it works as is I will give you directions on how to get it working on that rom.

Add on .zips?

Hey, is there a repository or anything for .zips for me to add on to CM7? Such as; i downloaded an LG widgets .zip to flash (didn't work by the way) with clockwork, but i mean that kind of thing. Even if there isn't a repository is there any you'd recommend me add on?
Thanks!
Damn...zips or apks? Someone mentioned how to add apps to the rom zip so they would be system apps or part of the rom. I remember it being easy sounding but forgot. Glad you asked before I did.

zips, you install them using recovery like any other rom, and it becomes part of the rom, like when you install CM7 it asks if you want an add on with all the google apps in it with your rom, (talk, youtube etc..)
That's not what I'm talking about as that is pretty obvious. Say you had 30 apks you wanted as part of the roms build. There is a place in the rom zip they can go before you flash the rom. That way don't have to make a ton of zips or build 1 large flashable.zip unless you just enjoy doing everything the hard way

If you open the zip file, and go to System > App, you can copy the apk's in there and they will install when you flash the rom.
You may need to re-sign the zip though, or toggle signature verification in clockwork mod.

How bout you try and find out and let us know.

ok then find a zip that does work properly for you and extract your data and data/app folder if you like and place it in the new update.zip.
I personally take one of the inverted gapps zip or regular gapps zip and fix it to my liking by placing my data apps that I have gotten from the program apps2zip. By doing this you are ensured the zip works fine since its generic and you know all the apps from your phone should be restored properly. Just run fix permissions prior to booting up again
I find that some of the apps recover OK but some of the others will just FC; I guess it is the ones that have data that freeze - I end up having to uninstall and do a fresh install. I'm not sure this happened with 2.2.0,

Gapps camera/ All star camera question

ive finally found a really good 4.2 rom i like with the rom it came with a update GAPPS zip to install but the thing is i really like the camera from all star ... which i belive is the updated ICS camera? i think? its alot better then the GAPPS like i can actually record video and stuff.

In simple terms; take out the apk from the Gapps package and either cut or copy it. Now, navigate to your ROM's system/app/ directory, and paste the gallery2.apk there. The phone should be booted up the whole time while doing the above. Now, reboot your phone. That's it!

Because that's not how you're supposed to install the apk. Use the instructions I posted above on how to do it.
i took out the gallery 2 apk from all star apps. i pasted it in my roms system/app which overwrite the original one there and i rebooted my phone. nothing is installed on my phone i have no camera now.
