[Q] How to customize through UOT Kitchen - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi All,
I am using Sebs.. Runnymede AIO 6.1.1 INT2SD-S rom. I just wanted to change the icons and battery icon with %. I tried all the options there in UOT with /data/app_s, /system/app etc by uploading the files from the respective folders from my rom.
The zip downloaded from the UOT did nothing for me.
Please tel me how to do?
Thanks in Advance

you cook up all the changes you want then upload your systemUI.apk and framework-res.apk and the appropriate themes/icons gets created. You then download the zip put it on your SD card go into recovery make a nandroid back up and install the zip from recovery.

framework-res.apk

hi
i just installed an application to change my battery Icon.
after it rebooted my DHD, it stocked.
i think the problem it because of framework-res.apk?
is there any way to replace the original framework-res with the moded framework-res?
DHD is rooted, and i have recovery menu, but it doesn't have any"install from SD" option in it, so i cant install any custom ROM.
can anybody help me with the script and an original framework-res?
If you upload me your original framework-res.apk, i will make you a .zip you can flash from recovery

I put mine in a file I created called UOT zips. Just put it somewhere you can find it when you go to recovery. When in recovery, do the following:
Wipe dalvik cache(and cache if you want)
Choose install zip from sd card
Select zip from sd card (your uot zip)
Navigate to where you copied your UOT zip and choose it
Confirm and it will install
Reboot

[Q] Gingerburst - how can i use UOT Kitchen

Hi all
Just got Droidzone's Gingerburst ROM and it's not listed in the UOT Kitchen, so I used the upload settings only to get a bootloop. I read Fredalf's other way of doing it through Root Explorer but the instructions weren't so clear.
Right now I have the zip file ready and waiting on my sd card. What shall i do next?
Please post the instructions and tell us, until which point you do not understand them. On this way it's much easier to help you.

i don't use this ROM, but have flashed many a UOT theme successfully without bootloop
1. did you upload all 3 relevant files: com.htc.resources.apk, SystemUI.apk and framework-res.apk?
2. did you check the "Flashing folders for system files" in the file upload tab? look in your original ROM.zip to see which folders SystemUI.apk and framework-res.apk are located in.
3. might not help, but sometimes suggested to wipe cache and dalvik before flashing, although i've done it successfully without
4. another long shot, but there may be some other option you've accidentally ticked inside the UOT kitchen itself which isn't compatible with your ROM, like the AOSP lockscreen, best to check again
the root explorer method requires S-OFF, though i've never done it this way. i guess u gotta extract the zip on your computer, copy the 3 files onto your SD card, then manually copy and overwrite them wherever they are located on the phone using Root explorer (e.g. into system/framework), then rebooting. it's basically the long way round what flashing the zip is supposed to do.
thanks for the replies.
yes i've followed the uot method of uploading all 3 correct files and i think i may have even done the wipes too. The result was the black screen with pink circle constantly looping.
I do have s off and i had gotten up to the extract part, although it wasn't explained what to extract and where.
Just extracted on computer and the com.htc.resources file isn't there although the other 2 are.

strange,
may be related to point number 2 in my previous post. open up your original ROM.zip on your PC, then search which folders framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk are located. look at the "Flashing folders for system files" in the UOT file upload tab, gives you the clues as to where they'll most likely be. probably system/framework and data/app(?) but varies from ROM to ROM.
put the framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk from the extracted kitchen zip onto your SD card (ignore the com.htc.resources file if it's not included) then copy them over to their respective locations using root explorer and overwrite (remember to mount read/write).
reboot - this is assuming you have your nandroid backup just in case
if it still doesnt work then might be number 4 of my previous post, or it's just beyond my knowledge...search the UOT thread if anyone with Gingerburst has got it working? must be possible...
again i've not done it this way myself, but don't see why it shouldnt work, await the wise MatDrOiD to confirm...

That didn't work, there must be some kind of glitch in the rom. Guess I'll just have to make do with horizontal battery for now. Thanks anyway.

[Q] UOT Kitchen Some Features didn't work

Hi,
just tried to make some changes with the UOT Kitchen but some features didn't work.
About my Device: HTC Desire PVT4 S-Off, Root, Runnymede 6.0.4.3
Features didn't work:
Header Text
Disable Carrier
New Bootanimation
can someone pls explain to me, why these features didn't work, and how i can fix them?
Thx much
The rom you are using probably moved the files you edited somewhere else in the system directory upon installation. This means that the flashable zip you got after theming is pushing the files to the wrong location.
What you can do is load those files manually by using adb or putting the said modified files on the rom zip prior to flashing.
Yes but what file is it? some features work. So i uploaded com.htc.resources.apk; resources-res.apk; SystemUI.apk.
but in the flashable zip are only 2 apks. the resources-res und the SystemUi. I found the folder for the bootanimation too. for me it has an other name, and boot and downanimation are in in file (or the downloaded is in one file, the othre has two)
If you have the file, boot into recovery, make backup, flash the cooked file and then see if it worked.

So you can see in my first post, that i exactly did this, and some features didn't work!!!
