[HOW-TO][Ver 6.12] Update GMaps (24/09)

HOW TO UPDATE GOOGLE MAPS:
I saw many pp ask about this and now I will type the guide here:
- Remove old version of Map
- Go to your /data/system
- Take the file "packages.xml" and copy to somewhere (sdcard, pc..etc)
- Open it wit NOtepad++ (on PC - recommend) and search then delete the line: <shared-user name="com.google.android.apps.maps".....>
- Copy the file back to its place and set permission rw-r-r
- Install this new signed version below as normal apk
- Done & Test
Download:
Version 6.12 http://www.mediafire.com/?17l0ayhlyx0fdxo
Version 6.11: https://www.dropbox.com/s/0ufwl1bfo6zqx2i/Maps6.11.1_Mod.apk
FAQ:
Q: Why I dont make a patch/update via updater?
A: Becoz it depends on your packages.xml and UserID
Q: Is there any other easy way?
A: I dont know Just found this way and it works for me. If u can find other easy way, pm me and I will update the guide.

I don't have the line you showed. I only have this one;
<shared-user name="android.uid.shared" userId="10007">
Should I delete this one instead?
When installing from market, it says this
"Incompatible with other applications using same shared user ID"

Working great....thanks Leo !!!

[SCRIPT]Automatic Porting![Windows and Linux][Works with all devices now!]

I just wrote a script that would automatically port ANY carrier's gs3 roms to ANY other carrier's devices
So now u can use all the roms other carriers get
Let me know if there are any errors(not including not found errors)
THIS ON OMG! DROID
http://omgdroid.com/script-released...-iii-custom-rom-to-any-other-carriers-device/
The future of this:
1. Ill add all the proprietary files from all the carriers so u dont have to have a base. DONE
2. UNIVERSAL ZIPS FOR ALL US GS3S THIS WILL TAKE A LONG TIME CUZ I HAVE TO LEARN HOW TO USE AROMA OR WRITE AN UPDATER-SCRIPT BUT IT WILL COME!!!(If anyone wants to teach me how to do those just pm me.) DONE BUT NOT GONNA RELEASE YET
3.Ability to automatically port ANY phones ROM to ANY other phone as long as they have the same dpi, manufacturer, and arm version. WORKING ON THIS. LEARNING PYTHON
How to use:
Linux:
1. download the rom u want to port and a rom on the SAME android version as the rom u want to port
2. unzip both of them and place both folders in the same folder
3. download the script and place it in the folder with the two rom folders
4. open a terminal and cd to the directory
5. run:
Code:
chmod +x portscript.sh
./portscript.sh
6. PROFIT
FOR WINDOWS I RECOMMEND CYGWIN AND THE LINUX VERSION. THE WINDOWS VERSION IS KINDA MESSED UP.
Windows(experimental):
1. download the rom u want to port and a rom on the SAME android version as the rom u want to port
2. unzip both of them and place both folders in the same folder
3. download the script and place it in the folder with the two rom folders
4. rename the rom you want to port's folder to port
5. double-click on portscript.bat
6. PROFIT
How to port rom from galaxy nexus or any other xhdpi armv7 samsung device:
1. inside ur base rom, open META-INF/com/google/android/updater-script as a text file and copy the mount points (like mount(/dev/block/mmcblk0p8, /system) you would copy /dev/blockmmcblk0p8)
2. Download script and do the porting procedure
3. open up the rom u are porting's META-INF/com/google/android/updater-script and replace the mounting with the values u copied.
4. save and move the updater-script to ur base's META-INF/com/google/android/ and replace
NEW!!!
NO NEED FOR BASE:
1. download the nobase script zip and extract it somewhere
2. download a device's proprietary files zip and extract it into the folder of the script
3. run the script and follow directions!
how to add a device to the nobase script:
download and unpack the zip with ur desired carrier/android version
run the portdiffs.sh and follow directions!

Changelog:
v3: more fixes

I am probably treading into an area that I have no business going to - but I would love to try this - and don't have enough knowledge to follow your instructions - was hoping you could explain the last few steps - I am going to sound like a real noob - but I don't understand some of the language -
what do you mean when you say "open a terminal and cd to the directory" ? if you can simplify that a little - I think I can do this and would love to try -
I think it means that I need to put save the roms and the script you have provided and place them in my C drive - then open a command prompt in that file (shift and right click I believe) is that correct?
second question - when I tried to download the file you provided from the lnk - it opened GOOGLE DRIVE and said I needed to request permission to access the file - ? I clicked request and am now waiting for some kind of response
?

No that will not work. If this does simple recovery mount point changes & build prop changes that will work for the family of SGS3 that share the same hardware. It will not work for i9300 as that has a different set of hardware. Thus, different libs and what not.
I doubt this script has the ability to decompile & merge correctly smali. Or has a downloadable collection of libs for i9300. Probably only works for the SGS3 variants like AT&T, telus, tmobile, etc.

so if lets say i got a tmobile gs3 and want to port an att rom, will it add wifi calling too?

even if it ports the wifi calling from tmobile..it won't work on att. it'll not be recognized as it requires tmobile service to really work.

[Script] Advanced Cm10 Slimmer V1.0 [22/10/2012]

Welcome to ...: AlwaysDroid Cm10 Simmer Version OnepointOh :...
First off give a HUGE thanks to zeppelinrox who helped me with some coding!
>><<> Basically, this is a script that I designed for the purpose of de-bloating CM10. Other scripts just remove what THAT user wants, but maybe that is not what you want!
So I set off to make a de-bloating script that would allow us to individually select what apps/wallpapers etc that you want to remove. >><<>>
- If you have any suggestions for apps to add, way to make this better etc, please do state so!

Can you tell us what exactly this script does? I am just curious what all happens before I run something I don't understand.

Sure . I'll make a video later today as well. Basically instead of just deleting a bunch of items in a row, like other scripts, it gives you choice as user input. If you input "y" it will delete "n" it will keep and so on. So can individually choose what apps/wallpapers/etc to delete based on what is best for you!

Maybe what he is trying to say is we don't know what your "upgrade kit" is for.
Can you add a small description and install instructions? (I know there is already instructions in the Firmware Package folder)
Also, can you write your post in bigger font size, I cannot read? :silly: (just kidding, reducing the font size should help too, use titles)

I am so sorry but I already closed that gt-i9000 upk kit project . If you want more help about installing or other things I can help you with everything.

Nah, you're nice but I flashed a custom rom last night. It was a long time I didn't do that and it was hard to find the tools / roms / cf-root, but I did it.

Question Twin Apps Not Working

Hi, I can't speak English, so I'm using Google translator. Sorry if there are any wrong words.
My Rog 6 is the tencent version with the Global room, it came with version WW-32.2810.2206.95 since then the Twin Apps never worked, I updated the device to version WW-32.2810.2206.97 and it still didn't get the app. I updated to version WW-32.2810.2207.134 and it still doesn't work.
Does anyone have a solution for this problem?

Try this solution - works (tried & tested) for ROG phone 3:
Regarding ZenUI's Twin App
Is there a way to add custom apps into it? The app they have that are available for Twin Apps is really limited, I would like to add my own:)

I tried this solution, but I was not successful. I just wish I could duplicate whatsapp...

Are you sure you followed all the steps?
Pasted from the link: (essentially, just modify your existing twinapps. xml file)
1.Download file twinapps_required_apps.xml
給 ZenUI 4.0 之後應用分身使用的 app 支援設定檔
給 ZenUI 4.0 之後應用分身使用的 app 支援設定檔. GitHub Gist: instantly share code, notes, and snippets.
gist.github.com
Remember, you must download the file from right corner "Raw" button, do not press "download zip" to download or copy and paste the strings from the link
2.Find out the app package name that you want to add , As the example from the tutorial, they choose "GoShare" as an example, you can check its package name from the website version Google play, the hyperlink after "id=" is its' package name.
For Example "https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gogoro.goshare"
"com.gogoro.goshare" is the package name.
3.Edit the downloaded twinapps.xml. Find out this string from the file "<string-array name="twinapps_required_apps">" (for apps)
or <string-array name="twinapps_required_apps_games">(for games). Added <item></item> in the front and after the package name. For example if you want to add "Goshare" in the app list, it should be<item>com.gogoro.goshare</item>. Add it after <item>com.imo.android.imoim|imo free video calls and chat</item>. And Save the file.
4 Connect your phone to your pc and use adb to push the edited twinapps.xml into your phone adb push twinapps.xml /sdcard/.
5 After pushed the xml file to your file, use this command to update the twinapps list
adb shell am startservice -a "asus.intent.action.TWINAPPS_CDN_FILE_UPDATE" -d "file:///sdcard/twinapps.xml" --ei "ACTION" 1 com.asus.twinapps/.TwinAppsService.

Yes, I followed all the steps. I downloaded the file, edited it, passed the cmd to the cell phone and gave the update command. Apparently the update command worked, but still nothing appears in Twin Apps.
