Hello,
Does anyone can post the free OI File manager in CWM package for Jelly bean?
It will save a lot of time when switching to a new rom!
Thanks in advance
I'm not sure what you meant.
Are you looking for this?
Aroma Filemanager http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1646108
Or, is it a flashable zip that contains OI File Manager? Why do you want it? Just curious
I am looking for a flashable zip of a file Manager. I can install it when I change Rom and this way it is not necesary for me to set up a google account. I can restore all my previous settings and backups if I have a file manager.
Anyone can help with a flashable zip CWM of a file manager?
Thanks
You can add/insert the file manager into a rom.zip then flash the rom.zip that has the included file manager. You have a file manager at the first boot.
I can make the flasable zip for you if you still want to
Here you go.
Thanks. Really nice from you. Just what I needed.

Yes, I noticed when I flashed CodeNameAndroid ROM, which includes a file mgr, that you can do pretty much everything you need to do without a Google account or even gapps. The exception is that paid apps that check their license on the play store still need all that stuff. Otherwise you're free of Google.
If you ever need to make a flashable zip out of any app, you can always use "App2zip" by SCDevs.

Wondering if all zip files (apps, obviously) are flashable. Suppose I download an app in a Zip file and I flash it using CWM, does it get flashed and turn into a system file? I have also noticed that there a images in a few zips I've downloaded and extracted (using androzip). What happens to these images when i flash the zip?
Seriously confused.
Apps and .zips are two different things.
You cant install apps through flashing(Except if someone has made a flashable .zip)
Also apps are not in .zip/.rar format they are in .apk and can be installed through your file manager
Thats why we have a FAQ thread stuck in the section... pls ask questions there..
Hi guys,
I installed a asop r3 nightly, along with gaps, but for some reason I can't find the default music player..the widget is missing too can't installed music from play.store as I'm in the UK
How can I get it on there?
Thanks in advance.
it's because of license, just search for playmusic.apk in the rom thread
edit: here the link for the apk

Depends on what their recommendation is.
If its just a .zip with the .apk inside it, you can just unzip and install the .apk with a file explorer.
If it's a .zip made for flashing, just flash it via CWM.
Yea, the zip file didn't contain a apk, and via cwm it failed to flash!
not sure what to do now...

What folders are inside the ZIP? If it has things like "assets", "META-INF" and "res", change the file extension to .apk and install as normal.

yup that was it, just figured it out and installed them (when I downloaded a apk file which was exactly the same size).
Thanks!
I Switch ROMs very often and Im tired of installing a File Manager from Play Store again and again. Most of the ROMs doesn't come with a Pre-Installed File Manager.
I've tried to create a CWM flashable file manager myself by following a guide but couldn't get the Zip to be flashable, And I've tried putting the Apk in the ROM itself and It worked but When I try to open the File Manager it crashes upon start.
So I request, Can anyone please make a CWM flashable File Manager app for me and many other people out there?
Please use Rhythm Software File Manager (Market/PlayStore Link Given + APK file Attached)

So I have a bunch apks that I add to every rom that I flash.... I was wondering if someone could lend some knowledge. I want to put them together in a flashable zip u can use in recovery, but do I just zip them in winzip and done? Or are there other steps I need to take? Should I use something besides winzip? Thanks in advance.

You will need to make a folder called update,inside make a folder called META-INF,in the META make folders called com/google/android,so the structure looks like this... META-INF/com/google/android,this thread will tell you how to make an updater script... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=641223 ,after you've created an updater and update scripts,after that in the same area you made the META folder,make a folder called system,inside system make one called apps,then put your apps in there and add the symlinks pointing to the apps,which is in the same thread as above.After you have finished that,right click the update folder and add to archive,in compression settings use "store" method and type of compression,use zip,then zip it up and theres your flashable update script.

Or u could just find a flashable zip of a mod or apk in the themes and apk section for evo and then just add ur apps to it. Should work as long as updater script mounts and unmounts /system.
U can use 7zip or winrar to open the zip up. Open up system folder then app folder. Add ur apks and delete the things the script originally added unless u want them. Easy as that.
Name of flashable zip doesn't matter btw

I'm trying to compile a flashable zip file with the file manager inside this app. It does not do it correctly it creates a zip folder with the flashable folder inside which does not work I need a direct folder that opens to become flashable... Am I doing something wrong can anyone knows try to create a flashable zip file with this utility. I have root explorer and that works great but I would really like to use this app instead

I've zipped and flashed whole roms with this app? What is it doing wrong? What type of zip are you using? 7zip?
I zipped JusTunBean and it did this
JusTunBean/JusTunBean/flashable stuff root explorer does JusTunBean/flashable stuff make sense? It's making a folder inside a folder

Gimme a little time to unzip then rezip something and see what it does for me! I'm at work so it won't be right now but soon I just unzipped and zipped a kernel file perfect. Are you trying to rezip a file you unzipped. If so go to the screen that has the Meta info and multiselect all of those then zip. If you want I'll show you screenshots, just let me know
