Hi,
This may be a stupid question but..I flashed a ROM on my phone, and a kernel and added some apps that I wanted. Is there a way I can exact the contents of my phone and make it a zip and share it with everyone else? Pretty much I wanna make it a flashable zip for everyone.
Thanks,
Indian

I have trying to get themes to run in the Doc and Stefunel kitchen.
This is a pretty demanding task. Many (almost all) themes can not be used as is due to a non standard resources.arsc and 9.png errors.
There is some theme pro's here.
We like to find a some kind of way to enable any theme inserted in a rom.
Any ideas to make this in a easy way?
/Doc
No one here any ideas? I already proposed someone make a theme kitchen and integrate it with Doc's rom kitchen but apparently all the smart guys that got time and would know how to do that bought a Desire.
Which takes us back at doc's original question someone knows a fail-proof way to integrate themes into roms without having to flash a post-install zip?
Hi Doc,
i know this isnt way you want, but probably it can work:
What about make some script, witch will do:
1) after flashing ROM and start android - reboot android to recovery
2) (i dont know if it is possible) make script for CWM witch will automaticaly flash theme and reboot to system
If Im wrong .. ignore this

I've never need a post-install script to put a theme into a ROM.
Except for the JPY Gingerbread, but me and XGX got that hammered out in the thread in the Captivate forum and it works just fine without a second .zip.

Hi, any link to point in right direction is most welcome
I've merely dropped the framework-res.apk and twframework-res.apk into the /system/framework. And any other files like android.policy.jar that goes with it.
For JPY, I had to take a few extra steps:

my phone baseband version is JXJPE and build no. is JPJPG.
Thanks for help

Hey Guys,
since I'm a new user and not allowed to post in the mike1986's ARHD 5.1.x Thread I'll try it here:
I'm on ARHD 5.1. ROM now and I also installed Lockscreen3.0 from the firste page of mikes Thread.
but how can I get back the stock lockscreen if i wanted to? there is a restore and remove Mod in mikes thread for the lockscreen too, but I'm not really sure which one to flash, or in what order...
another question:
did anyone look into the .zip and .apk files of the Lockscreen3.0 Mod?
there are some graphics (i.e. of the metallic ring) in it. if I would like to change the ring, maybe in a black metallic ring, can I just change the .png file of the ring? will this work?
what about other mods? i.e. the various status-bar-icon-mods? is it possible to just alter the graphics to get new icon designs?
thanks for your help
For your first question...you just have to flash the .zip file for "restore HTC lockscreen"
Helped me too, cheers.
Hi all. I'm a bit of a n00b so please bear with me
Anyways I just installed the GalaxySBean theme and the dev said that in order to install the TouchWiz theme you need to first modify the build.prop of the theme file, but I don't even know where the file's located. Also, will I need any non-stock apps besides a file explorer to do this? Thanks in advance

I am happy to hear of people wanting to learn hints for themselves so I am happy to pass on the knowledge.
First you must be aware of what kind of bootanimation style we have for stock Samsung, which is qmg style.
Now the thing with qmg is that the images inside the file aren't easily viewable or editable.
So the first thing I do is convert my system to read both zip and qmg files. I have created a mod that will look for a zip and use that and if the zip isn't there the system will revert to using a qmg style bootanimation.
There are tutorials for making qmg style Animations around, but personally I find that method a little more difficult as well as it limits the amount of frames you can use.
So personally I always make zip style Animations
There are probably some guides around for making zip styles as well, but I put together a quick and easy guide here
Once you finish making you zip style animation, you will need to use my mod to allow your system for zip bootanimations.
Here is the link, just be aware that there is a version for Lollipop and MM. Select appropriate version for you
Good luck
Thank you verry much for the howto . I wil go mess around with it??
