[Q] How to make CWM 3.1.0.1 (Purple) flashable zip

Ok guys, I'm trying to make a zip of a mod I did to fix hulu on flash 10.3 on gingerbread, but I can't get the zip to be flashable. I'm on the purple cwm 3.1.0.1, I tried the android customization tools to build an empty zip, copied that to my Ubuntu partition so the permissions stick, added the appropriate files into the zip, but I get an error whenever I try to flash:
E: Error in /sdcard/gbflash.zip
(Status 0)
Installation aborted.
Any ideas? Or maybe I need a newer "blank" zip? If anyone can provide I'd be most appreciative
EDIT: I've attached my NON-WORKING zip file so that maybe some kind person might be able to see what the issue is.

Really? Nobody? Just trying to share my mods with the community, sure could use a little help

Try mounting like this instead?
Code:
run_program("/sbin/mount", "/dev/block/stl9", "/system");
run_program("/sbin/mount", "/dev/block/stl10", "/data");
run_program("/sbin/mount", "/dev/block/stl11", "/cache");
If all else fails, try using an existing CWM flash-able as a skeleton for your work. That's what I do.

Cool, thanks for the advice. Will try, hopefully I'll have something to share soon!

CWM and TWRP

Just curious. Will CWM will completely placed by TWRP nowadays?
I personally use CWM since the first time i use android. And now i saw on many forums, most of the custom Roms used TWRP to flash.
Are all the devs (and their roms) use only TWRP since now? Or are CWM still can be use to flash the roms too?

What? Use what you like, both should work just fine.

I thought some of the devs made and will make the roms only compatible with TWRP only. Thanks if they're not

It's my understanding that almost any rom will flash in any recovery. There are probably exceptions but this is what I've found to be the case most of the time.

The ROMs are compatible with either recovery, but the OTA updating apps are not. Some newer ROMs use GooManager for OTA updates:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.s0up.goomanager&hl=en
...and this requires TWRP to automatically flash ROM updates.
Many older ROMs use ROM Manager for updates:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.koushikdutta.rommanager&hl=en
...and this requires CWM to flash ROMs from within the app.
Any recovery should flash any ROM (the newer versions of TWRP may have trouble with older ROMs due to those having outdated installer binaries), but if you use ROM Manager or GooManager to flash ROMS, you need the recovery that is compatible with the app.

Goo manager needs TWRP to OTA update. I switched from CWM to TWRP and I like TWRP better. IT has a much better interface, scrollable on the touch screen and the backups are compressible.

I tried twrp and could not get it to install a kernel zip. Kept giving an error.

So you'll have to get with your kernel dev to update his update-binary.

It is pretty easy to update the files your self. Just open the flashables zip with a zip program like 7zip. Navigate to META-INF/com/google/android. Replace the update-binary in the zip with this one http://dinc.does-it.net/Recoveries/TWRP_2.3.1.0/update-binary compatible with twrp 2.3+.
With the updated binary comes some new coding in the updater-script also. Open the updater-script with a good text editor like Text Pad, do not use notepad or wordpad. Look for mount and format commands that look like this:
Code:
format("MTD", "system", "/system");
mount("MTD", "system", "/system");
format("MTD", "cache", "/cache");
And change them to look like this:
Code:
format("yaffs2", "MTD", "system", "0", "/system");
mount("yaffs2", "MTD", "system", "/system");
format("ext4", "MTD", "cache", "0", "/cache");
The above is just an example of the formating required for the new binary. Your roms updater-script may have other lines which format or mount other partitions than those listed. Format has 5 arguments "file system of partition - MTD - partition name - 0 - and mount point". Mount has 4 arguments "file system of partition - MTD - partition name - mount point".
If your decent with reading coding and have a little time its not to dificult to accomplish.
If anyone who cant figure it out is interested, i will start a new post in general where i will update your flashable for you. I know a lot of the roms kernels and flashables around arent really supported by their devs anymore, but are still used.
FYI. All flashable files on dinc.does-it.net are now twrp 2.3+ compatible.

[MOD] Advanced Power Menu for JWR66Y

UPDATE: I added screenshot to the power menu for anyone who is interested.
Hello all!
I recently saw a pretty cool advanced power menu mod for the Nexus 7 and really wanted it for our Nexus 4. Unfortunately, the developer did not have time to make a version for the Nexus 4. I modified the framework-res.apk and androidpolicy.jar from the zip on the Nexus 7 thread to work on the Nexus 4. The result is pretty close to the original mod and it looks great. I've only tested it on a stock deodexed JWR66Y build. This won't work on odex ROMs. If you have any modifications to your framework-res.apk or androidpolicy.jar this modification will overwrite your current one.
I personally like to use the stock ROM and having this advanced power menu is really nice. I just wanted to share this with everyone!
All credit goes to scrosler for his awesome mod so go give him some thanks on the original thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2380413
Instructions:
1. Reboot to recovery
2. Mount system
3. Flash zip
4. Reboot
Enjoy!!

I'm trying to flash your mod. It appears to flash successfully in TWRP, but it is not working. Neither android.policy.jar or framework-res.apk are modified when I reboot after flashing this. I'm using ziddey's kernel based off franco's kernel, and there have been changes to framework-res.apk. Could that be the reason that nothing gets installed?
EDIT: I decided to manually install the 2 files, and that works fine. So I'm guessing that the mount command in the updater-script is incorrect? Did you actually get your zip file to install successfully on the Nexus 4? Or did you just install the files manually?
EDIT2: A couple of hours later, I changed the mount command in your updater-script (to be like one I have in another Nexus 4 update.zip), and it flashes just fine! But another person has reported that this works fine for him, so I'm very confused.
EDIT3: Well, here are my conclusions, some of which are the same as already described above. (I do know that I can use an app to get the advanced power menu, but I'm trying to figure out why this mod works for some but not for me).
1. Flashing this zip as-is does not install either file (android.policy.jar and framework-res.apk). I believe it's due to the mount.
2. Manually installing the 2 files DOES work, i.e. the advanced power menu displays when holding down the power button.
3. Changing the mount command in the updater-script DOES work.
original mount (fails?): mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/platform/sdhci-tegra.3/by-name/APP", "/system");
modified mount (works): mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/system", "/system");
4. I found another mod for the advanced power menu which only modifies android.policy.jar and NOT framework-res.apk, and it DOES work. See this thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2383509
By the way, it has a completely different way of mounting, i.e. run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/system");
I'm hoping babalonius508 (or anyone else who says this mod is working) can help me figure out why the mount works for them and not for me!
EDIT4: I'm using TWRP. I booted into recovery and used ADB. I tried a mount similar to the "tegra" one that is in this mod's updater-script (see 3. above). It failed. Then I did one with the "sdcc" one (again, see 3. above). It worked.
So...does this have something to do with which recovery is used? I'm wondering if those who are failing to get this to install are running TWRP (like me), while those who are successful are running CWM. I could try installing CWM and test this myself, but it's late, and maybe some others can chime in here and see if I'm on the right track. Well, if I really think about it, I don't think recovery has anything to do with it. I don't see how this could possibly be working with that mount command. Anyone who has this working on the Nexus 4, please post here and tell me how!

I actually don't use TWRP so its hard for me to guide you on that because I have very little experience with it. When flashing this mod in ClockworkMod recovery, I simply mount system before I flash.
If all else fails just take the framework-res.apk and androidpolicy.jar out of the flashable zip, put it in system/framework, and change the permissions of both the files to rw-rw-r-- and reboot. Don't forget to make a backup of your current framework-res.apk and androidpolicy.jar. I hope you can get it working!

Not bad, i'll give a try!

If you look at my first EDIT comment, you'll see that I did do each part manually, and it worked fine. But the issue was how to get your zip file to work "as is", i.e. without issuing a mount command during recovery (whether CWM or TWRP). With other zip files that I flash, the mount is done correctly in the script. I've moved on to using Xposed with either GravityBox or Xblast, which means no more flashing.

[Q] Add new device?? - Dsixda Kitchen

Hello,
I am starting to modify the stock rom for N5120. For now, I have Dsixda Kitchen running under Windows XP SP3, and successfully (at least without errors) added root, busybox, deodexed, etc. Now , all I need to do is to build a new rom, right?
Then, there comes my question. N5120 is not listed in the supported devices of Dsixda Kitchen.
If I understand well (I am not sure, though), adding a new device means adding mount points (?) etc, right?
I am just modding some features in the same rom (I am not porting to a different device). Should I still need to add N5120 support?
If yes, could someone please lead me to a concrete tutorial? There is some instructions on the original thread of Dsixda kitchen, but the instructions are not very clear for me. I am just starting to learn. So, there are many things I don't know or I don't understand. So, please forgive my lack of knowledge.
Thank you in advance.
PS: I thought asking this question in the original thread, but the original thread is closed now.

PS2: I found and obrained Recovery.img from Stock rom, and made a file for Edify_Defs. As I don't understand anything, I duplicated the file for N7100, renamed it as GT-5120 and changed the mount point numbers(?).
Can anyone tell me if it is OK? Is there a risk of a brick if I go ahead with this file?
PS: I think the Edify_Defs file must be renamed to konalte. That's what is in ro.product.device.in build.prop.
PS2: I built a rom with "konalte". and it seems that the mount points are set correctly, but CWM fails to flash (Error status 6)... Can anyone help?

However, someone gave me a hint from another thread, and I was able to flash two or three roms for testing.
I deleted META-INF folder before building a rom, and then, I deleted two lines in the script. And, everything went well.
The mount points I set in the files were correct.
I appreciate your comments. Thank you.

[RECOVERY][All-F2FS] TWRP-2.7.0.0 with All-F2FS support [10/05/14]

TWRP-2.7.0.0 with "All-F2FS" support​
NOTE: I don't have a Nexus 5 to test this. It should work.
Please report back.​
I have modified the standard TWRP recovery to work with F2FS partitions.
This is for "All-F2FS" that mean that /system, /cache and /data are formatted with F2FS.
Keep in mind that this can work only with a compatible kernel and ROM.
What is F2FS?
F2FS (Flash-Friendly File System) is a flash file system created by Kim Jaegeuk at Samsung for the Linux operating system kernel. The motive for F2FS was to build a file system that from the start takes into account the characteristics of NAND flash memory-based storage devices (such as solid-state disks, eMMC, and SD cards), which are widely used in computer systems ranging from mobile devices to servers.
Download:
FormatPartitions.zip: Here (It is named mako but work on N5 too)
TWRP-recovery img: Here
Chagelogs:
- 10/05/14: Fix TWRP
- 08/05/14: Initial release
Here are some explanations. Read them
Recovery has the usual red back key to remember you that you are using a F2FS-recovery.
If wiping /system and /cache and making a factory reset from Wipe menu doesn't work, use FormatPartitions.zip. (<- READ THIS)
Instead wiping /data is fine within the wipe menu.
To switch your /system, /cache and /data partitions to F2FS follow instructions:
Keep in mind that you will lose all the files on the memory of your N5.
You need:
- Two files you can download above (img and FormatPartitions.zip)
- A ROM with "All-F2FS" support
(One way to make your ROM is with Convert To F2FS)
- GApps (i think you want PlayStore.) Usual GApps. Slim AiO work well.
Copy a ROM with "All-F2FS" support to your N5
Copy GApps to your N5
Copy FormatPartitions.zip to your N5
Reboot in bootloader
Flash this recovery with Fastboot (Maybe Flashify works too)
Reboot in new recovery
Flash FormatPartitions.zip
Reboot recovery (It's needed for some reasons..)
Flash ROM
Flash GApps
Go to Wipe Menu and Format Data (Not a simple wipe)
Reboot
Done.
It's easier than it seems
To restore partitions to stock:
- Download a standard TWRP
- Download RestorePartitions.zip (It is named mako but work on N5 too)
Flash RestorePartitions.zip (Untested)
Flash standard Recovery
Format Data in Wipe Menu
Enjoy.

As stated i don't have the Nexus 5. But i think that if you give me the recovery.log after the failed flash i can solve the problem.
If you have some time can you retry and after the failed flash go to Advanced -> Recovery log. And then send it to me? Thank you.

Can i use it with ParanoidAndroid?

@legolas93 can this be done without the play store app? I can't afford to buy it, but I am comfortable grabbing recovery logs. I just haven't messed with this F2FS stuff yet. Not sure what ROMs, if any, are F2FS compatible already.

There r no Roms which r f2fs-all compatible yet. But u can edit them urself to make them compatible.
Without the playstore app also its simple u just hv to change the updater-script of the rom in the META-INF folder
find for lines as below:
HTML:
format("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/system", "0", "/system");
mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/system", "/system");
and replace them with this:
HTML:
run_program("/sbin/mkfs.f2fs", "/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/system");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/system");
and sometimes u can see this line isolated
HTML:
mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/system", "/system");
so do the same thing and change it to this
HTML:
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/system");
and u need f2fs-all compatible kernels aswell..

I tried with Slimkat,so AOSP
replaced
format("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/system", "0", "/system");
with
run_program("/sbin/mkfs.f2fs", "/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/system");
and
mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/system", "/system");
with
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/system");
