It sounds like you got your hands on an old Amend script.
Newer versions of CWM use something called Edify scripting. I don't know much else about that, to be honest.
MysteryEmotionz hooked me up with his custom "Blacked-Out" MIUI music player. It may not be 100% what you're looking for, but it works and works well.
You shouldn't have a problem flashing this in CWM. Let me know how it goes
U could also extract the zip take the apk and put it in system app with root explore

No Problem. Good luck bro. You are a braver man than me to try this. I have thought about making my own Rom because every one I try I like some things but not everything. I would be cool to combine features or implement features from other Rom's and take out the things you don't like and have one happy Rom that you created and use designed especially for you! Anyway, let me know the results and how difficult it is and maybe I'll give it a shot.
Alternatively, you can use apps like System App Remover to remove apps though you would have to remove each app individually...
or you could just open the zip file with any zip application and remove the files you want and then flash
ZIP
after unzipping and removing apps does the zip need to be signed before flashing or will it be ok ?

It depends witch recovery are you using with Amon-Ra you need signed zips but with Clockwork you can flash unsigned zips.

download Regaw's zip signer if you are unsure
just open the zip file in winrar, then delete the apks you dont wont. No need to resign. NOTICE I DID NOT SAY UNZIP the file.
I found an old thread with it, but the download doesn't work anymore.
Rom manager, virtuous extra goodies section.

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?
Im wondering if it is possible to be able to make it from my phone? Can I use the app ZipThemer to accomplish this? Like, is there a way to take a regular zip file, and use an app to make it edify compatable? How does one make files cwm 3.0.0.6 compatable?

Found this thread in Dev and Hacking:
[Q] Upgrading Amend Scripts to Edify
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=898289
maybe that will help?
Dont overthink it. Find a zip that is edify ready and does something similar to what u wanna do and replace ur files in it. Yes it can be done on the phone. I have created flashables from root explorer before. Just extract it replace what u want and re-create it.

Make the zips just like you see them, usually all files and folders will match where they go, then google and download amend2edify and use that on them. But I prefer the previously mentioned file swaps.
Thanks guys. I downloaded amend2edify ad that took care of the files. I'm not real good at doing the file swap thing, as I wouldn't even know what I was looking at. But, the file/zip I ran thru amend2edify didn't work after I ran it thru. It was the file in Epic android and development about adding the reboot mod to the power menu. It was the complete power mod. I mean, in cwm3.0.0.6 it said "appy from sdcard complete", but after I rebooted, no power mod was there. I'm guesing that I did something wrong.

Maybe, upload the zip that amend2edify spit out and we can debug the updater-script. That mod requires a framework.jar change and an android.policy.jar change and a framework-res.apk change. Are those all in the zip you made?

I can't flash nearly half my zips, and after doing some googling I found out that you have to now replace a file within the zip in order to be useable within twrp. Not a big deal.... only I can't save the dang file without appending some sort of file association. txt, zip, img, bin,mp3 etc...... So how do I exactly save this thing so I can overwrite the original?
I normally frown on double posts, but I can't find this information anywhere. Any information on how to replace an update-binary will prevent me from throwing my phone at a wall. I just want to flash my mason kernel

If u having problem with ur recovery flashing I wouldn't care replacing binaries why u don't use another recovery ?
What about smelkus. That could be the faster and the better option to solve ur issue.

Okay what the problem is that with the 2.3x recovery software they use the jellybean update-binary. To fix this you unzip any zip file that works. Copy that binary over the one that wont flash check updater script to make sure you don't have to change any of the script. Then rezip it all back and it will work fine.
I would suggest changing your recovery also. It is quicker than redoing all the zips. If you want to stay with twrp 2.2.2.0 will work with all your zips.
Oh just double read your post. I use es file explorer on my phone to do the zip fix. I am guessing that you are on a Windows machine. I forget about that sometimes. Been running a Linux box for couple years now.

a lucid explanation here
If you use 7-zip, simply put the file on windows somewhere and drop it into the right directory. Note that update-script changes to updater-script and the parsing is Amend not Edigy anymore so scripts will change.
I ported a note 8.0 cm ROM to my n7105 which works great (by no means am I a developer just an android enthusiast) which is why I need help. I have flashed other mods like transparent settings and transparent calls plus heaps of other mods and I was wandering how I can pull the boot.img, system files and meta-inf folder so I can rezip it instead of saving the recovery image for using later. I tried the advanced back up in philz recovery clone ROM but that doesn't give the updater script in the meta-inf folder. I think its more of an update zip cause I did a full wipe and got a status 1 error.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Why you want to pull kernel? you have to use as .img only (though you can pull out as .img by Terminal emulator from play store)
for system use DSIXDA kitchen to make flashable zip.

I finally got around to setting up the kitchen and built the ROM unfortunately when I flashed I had a status bar with date and time and just a black screen. I'm thinking its a launcher issue?
