[Q] APK Decompiling

I can't find twframework.apk to finish decompiling. Where is this file located?

I thought tw was touch wiz ?
I know framework-res.apk is in system/framework.

Oh I didn't know that... I was reading a guide on how to decompile an apk and it said to extract it. I tried running apktool without it but I just get an error.

Use a program called apk manager. It has the apktool already built in and it works flawlessly. Thats what I use for all my theming and editing of apks.

There is a Guy who has taken over the development of apk manager and has come out with a newer version and renamed it. Its called apk multi tool now. Try that out as well

And if you're on ubuntu machine give Android utility a whirl

It's apkmanager on crack. Hehe. Just kidding. Apkmanager was awesome but I felt it needed some extra features. I wrote this from scratch and it has more features than most people need...but its all there.

I'm having problems installing the android utility... I'm getting all kinds of directory does not exist and git errors... thoughts?
Edit: Nevermind I didn't have git installed. Didn't know I needed it.

Hint: AOSP 4.1.1 source and Toro not showing as a target under 'lunch'

In case anyone is having trouble finding toro as a device target when trying to build from the list of targets from the 'lunch' command... Toro didn't show up in the list but I was able to manually specify it rather than selecting a numeric option.
Devs probably know that works, but amateurs like myself might benefit from that tidbit. Jellybean seems to be building OK for me now.
EDIT: I was asked what I did, more specifically, so I'll put that here in op:
Rather than enter a numeric choice, I entered 'full_toro-userdebug'. Apparently this was a valid response and the build proceeded.

Mind explaining how you manually selected it?

Not at all. Rather than selecting say, 11 or another choice, I entered: full_toro-userdebug. Apparently this was a valid response and the build proceeded.

question... not much into actual developing here but i know my way around the inside of a rom or two... once you compile. will it be a fully capable rom? as in (what the OTA will be like without VZ apps)?

It's not as 'polished'. There are no gapps, the dictionary is not complete (need a version from a factory image/rom), there are extra keyboards (Japanese?), maybe a couple other oddities as compared to a stock ROM. It will certainly be more capable that porting a gsm rom to toro, that's for sure .

Not to thread jack, but i have my rom building, but to actually personalize the rom, is there any app like eclipse or is it just editing files in the zip?

You edit the source files. The goodies you want are in the res folder of most applications. /packages/apps in the source code. Here's my question, when I boot it gets to the Google screen and then a black screen. I suspect this here. When I start the build I see this:
Code:
find: 'src': No such file or directory.
PRODUCT_COPY_FILES device/generic/goldfish/data/etc/apns-conf.xml:system/etc/apns-conf.xml ignored.
... Many more of these Product copy ignored things...
And then it finishes compiling. What's up here, I'm pretty sure it's missing drivers and stuff!

Did you install the binaries for toro? There is also a script that will pull them from your phone (so a stock rom is best), which may be better because Google can't give you everything you need for a functional rom (GPS for example). I ended up copying those files from a stock image to my compiled rom.

i got my binaries from here https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/drivers#torojro03c

For future reference, what he's referring to is the extract-files.sh script included in the CM source. If you cannot find the proprietary binaries for a certain device you wanna build for, plug in the phone via usb, cd to the directory with the script and execute the command.

I also got version 4.0.9.99.999.9999.99999 when I synced to the master branch. Thanks for mentioning the workaround to sync with 4.1.1_r1 .
Did you figure out if it's a problem to sync 4.1.1 into a directory that's already synced with master (4.0.9.99...)?
--------------------------------
Update: I think I can answer this question based on JBQ's response:
https://groups.google.com/d/msg/android-building/rtH5ZbJC7qU/-N1lr9MqexYJ
"You can also switch in place: just run "repo init -b <new_manifest_branch>; repo sync" in your existing client."
Sounds like syncing to a new branch in the same working directory should work just fine.

(CLOSED)[DEVS NEEDED] A little help?

I decided to try my hand at making a rom, but honestly am not sure i know what I'm doing lol. I would like someone who does know to take a look at it (?) and maybe offer a pointer or two? I haven't done anything special to it, it's stock based, no real add ons except I attempted to add some tweaks (kobridges) and a recovery (which I also got from kobridges thread) I don't dare flash it without someone seeing if I didn't totally bork it lol.
Thanks
[EDIT: Posted in Dev section, decided to go with FI27 base and very minor mods]

I might be brave and test it on e4gt with cracked screen and broke no charge port

Just stop there... if you don't dare flashing something that you have created, I don't think anyone else should risk their device for you. As long as you didn't make any major changes, it should be fine... but just seeing your lack of confidence, I would not flash it.

You misunderstood me, I don't want anyone else to flash it, just look at the build prop and tell me if I did everything right.

The build.prop shouldn't really change if it's stock based. Maybe a few minor tweaks, but those shouldn't affect whether it boots or not.

Ok, and it opens package and aborts install, so I screwed something up. Any idea where to start? Sorry I really don't know much about this :banghead:

Maybe the recovery is in the wrong place?

You don't need to do that. Just use a custom kernel like rujelus' which has a safe custom recovery and delete that file. You'll have to edit the updater script to do it though.
It'll be like this:
Code:
ui_print("Flashing Kernel");
format("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p5");
format("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p6");
package_extract_file("zImage", "/tmp/zImage");
write_raw_image("/tmp/zImage", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p5");
write_raw_image("/tmp/zImage", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p6");
delete("/tmp/zImage");
And then place the kernel zImage in the root of the zip.
Also, the aborted install is most likely from your updater script.

What's the error it gives when trying to flash it? Also the format of mmcblk0p5 and 6 are unneeded. And will probably break lots of things if you do by chance get them formatted because they have no filesystem.

Sorry to resurrect a dead thread but this is the only one that I saw that talks about compiling from LG kernel source.
I think I did everything like your instructions say but the output folder for my kernel doesn't have a zImage file. The closest name is Image but it's 14.4MB (way bigger than viper kernel, for instance) and it doesn't boot via fastboot boot Image. I'd appreciate it if anyone could give me some pointers.
EDIT: looks like I hadn't installed lzop, never mind.

I tried it using toolchain 4.6.3, among many others, and at best, the error was with the tsp.drv. When I removed it it compiled fine. But no boot.
How did you get past that error? Also, I have issues getting the modules to compile. How'd you fix that?
I'm trying to learn in my spare time so that's probably my problem. TIA

I just started with the source of Viper Kernel, it's ZVC based and already have some good fixes.
You can also see the source I'm working on at bmos/JB_LS970ZVC_Adder, although mine isn't booting right now (although I'm about to try toolchain 4.7 which it says it is optimised for)

[Q] Device name question.

Hi everyone. I am attempting to buld my first ROM and am following a guide to build beanstalk. I am at a point that confuses me. The comand is "breakfast (Device name)". Is this just looking for "n7100" or is there a speacial name I have to put there? Thanks!!
PS: Before anyone say this is not the place for this, Id like to say sorry first. IF i can get this to work and I get permision from scott this will turn into a new Beanstalk build thread.

It depends on the Beanstalk build environment setup. Your best bet is to PM someone that has already built for a device and ask them.
Just something to try, you could try the breakfast command without typing anything after it and see if your device name shows up then.
When I started building from source, I have never used the breakfast command, only lunch and make.

Thanks for the reply. I am running into another problem thats a step before that. I am trying to get the curl command to work. It creates a file called repo but when I try to do the next command repo init "blahblah" I get an error code saying syntay error Doctype HTML. The only thing I can think of is that the repo file should be a python script but is getting saved as html. I dont know how to fix this. Can someone post there repo file. This is the code to I am using to create the repo file.
curl https://dl-ssl.google.com/dl/googlesource/git-repo/repo > ~/bin/repo

Have you got that big list of dependencies installed? If you dont know what I mean, search for aosp amd setting up build environment and theres a list of packages that need imstalling, python beimg one of them.
Actually looking at that link I dont think thats where my repo come from. If you can wait until tomorrow when Im back at my pc Ill sort out a step by step guide if you want? As in noob starting from scratch guide that I followed to get set up.

Yeah. I had a wrong link in the curl command. It was an old link. I googled it and replaced it, now everything seems to be working. Lets see though. Any help you can give though I would apreciate it.

Did you add your N7100 repo's to the local manifest?

Ok. Next question. Where or how do I get the device specific files for the note 2 so I can try to build the newest beanstalk. I thought they would automatically come from CM but the device isnt supported. Not sure if I mentioned this or not before but I have never done this before so it is a learning experience for me.
