Delete (solved) - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S 4

Im looking for someone who can help me out on set up. All packages are installed. I made it all the way to where you type ./menu into Cygwin and it shows file not found.
Any suggestions?

Make sure you are in the kitchen directory (cd kitchen) and make sure your rom is in the correct directory that says place rom here.
Thanks

So what your saying is I need to put my rom in "place rom here" BEFORE I cd menu?

Cygwin should be on the root of C:\
If it is, try in terminal
Code:
cd c:\cygwin\home\"yourname"\android-kitchen-0.224
Then your terminal should read that u are in that directory. Then press ./menu and it should work

correct. Also, he is correct above, but you must have the tar original in the put-rom-here also.

hi!!!

When I type c:\cygwin\home\chris\android-kitchen-0.224 it says command not found....so im stumped
Sent from my SGH-M919 using xda premium

try going up one level at a time. sometimes i hate it when cygwin does that.

When I type java in I get all kinds of info pop up....the next step is to type ./menu. Thata when it says No such file in directory

I believe its the path. I cant find it on Windows 7. Ya gotta add it to Cygwin path
Sent from my SGH-M919 using xda premium

Exactly what it sounds like, make sure the paths are set correctly in the variables, one of the biggest issues when running kitchen. wow, setting everything up was a bit harder than actually using the program, you'll get it...hang in there...

I have found the path for Java...but when I type it into Cygwin its not sticking

Make sure you go to the Java website and install the correct version (believe it had to be 32bit Java for Kitchen to work and sign roms correctly).
That was one of my problems.
But im having other problems now.
I zipalign and sign my rom, then make it into a working zip, but whenever I try to flash it does not, I dont think the Kitchen is producing the right rom files (I.e. Meta Data Inf, System, etc.)
Anyone got some input?
Do I have to mod something in the Kitchen for it to work with S4 Roms?

Any got a guide or know how to port keyboards? Please be as detailed as possible. Or if you know how maybe you can do it for me if you'd be so kind I'm trying to port the Motorola Photon keyboard.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Normally you can just use es file manager/root explorer, go into the system/apps, find the keyboard apk, then try to install it. Perhaps get a rom from that device and then extract the apk as well.
I've tried many times it says application not installed

What I did was sign it. Should be able to install correctly now
Whether it works or not after its installed is another story...I did not test.
Is the photon leyboard much different than the gb keyboard? I'm curious.
Btw. after you download file, don't mess with it in anyway. That will break the signture.

If you have existing copy of LatinIME.apk in system/app, you need to delete it first. The signatures are different with the unsigned and signed version i posted. Please remove the apk in system/app, then try installing via adb again.

{TUT} How to Odex your APKs.

EDIT: I apologize for not including this earlier, but I have attached dexopt-wrapper.bin to the bottom of the post. Unzip and push it to system/bin. Then give it the correct permissions which are
Read Write Execute
--x----x------x
--x-----------x
--x-----------x
I haven't seen any tutorials on how to odex an apk sooooo i thought i'd throw one up on here.
Before we begin, of course, a great big thank you to strongsteve, mpcdata and Capp5050.
Well first things first make a nandroid backup in recovery. Once thats done follow these steps.
Apps needed if doing it on the phone:
1. Rom Toolbox (I have the paid version)
(You can also just download a terminal emulator)
2.Get both Root Explorer and Astro File Manager.
3.Use Root Explorer and go to either system/app or data/app (system/app is for system files{most if not ALL of these files are already odexed} data/app is where you can find the apps you've installed from the market{!!!-I'm pretty sure the launchers are in system/app-!!!})
4.Copy the app that you want to odex into a new folder on your internal sdcard named "app"(in case you mess up you don't get problems ;D)
5.I suggest you write down the name of the app so you don't have to go back and forth if you have horrible memory like me =D.
6.Open up your terminal emulator and type
dexopt-wrapper /sdcard/app/insert.name.of.file.here.apk /sdcard/app/insert.name.of.file.here.odex
7.Press enter and check that new folder you made named "app", you should see both the .apk and the .odex file.
8.Next long press the .apk file in Root Explorer and hit Open With and then select Astro File Manager. Astro should pop up with three choices, you're going to click Browse File.
9.In that file you should see "classes.dex". DELETE that file.
(NOTE: you MUST do this from within Astro because if you unzip it will break the signature and file will be usless{unless you can resign it})
10.Once done you exit Astro and head back into Root Explorer, copy the .apk and .odex files and put them back into the folder you got the original .apk from (system/app or data/app)
11.Once you put both of them in there you need to fix the permissions, simply long press on the files (one at a time ;D) and scroll down the pop-up menu to Permissions.
12.You will have three columns Read, Write and Execute along with three rows Owner, Group and Others.
Your Permissions should be (this is for both .apk and .odex)
Read Write Execute
--X----X-----------
--X----------------
--X----------------
(I've attached a picture below of what your permissions should look like)
13.Once your permissions match the above diagram hit OK and restart your phone and your app is officially ODEXED.
If you have any questions feel free to PM me. I'll be glad to help with as much as i can. =D
NOTE:To Everyone: If i forgot something PLEASE let me know.
: To Mods: If this shouldn't be here please move it (if unnecessary, delete it)
Alred hit yo button but just wanted to say thank you in writing.
....um one major thing...your gonna need dexopt-wrapper script in system/bin to be able to odex within the rom
Was actually just wondering about that cause my script was in the rom already. Ill look into that in a few cause I'm going back to bed XD and you're welcome Cole I hope it has clear instructions XD

You can also try odexing it from within its originl folder

4.2 emoji keyboard

Does anybody have the emoji keyboard 4.2 file? I have searched and downloaded the file at least 5 different times from multiple places but whenever I go to flash the zip the installation is aborted error with the zip and I get the dead android figurine. Has this been happening to anybody else? I want the emoji 4.2 keyboard.

Working fine here on my end. Very nice too. I dig it.
For those of you having trouble flashing... just extract the two .apks from the zip with a file explorer, and also the lib file... we'll make this simple and I'll tell you just copy all files to the directories indicated below:
Copy the two apks to /system/app/ directory...
Now copy the lib file to /system/lib/ directory...
Reboot to recovery, wipe cache and dalvik cache, then fix permissions.
Success.

Odin & Firmware questions...

It's been a while since I had to use odin, so can someone please refresh my memory. I have Odin and firmware downloaded. I have both of them on my desktop. I understand how to open Odin, but how do i get my firmware to show up when I hit PDA in Odin? I know you're supposed to somehow extract it into a folder or something, but I can't for the life of me figure this out. Can someone please give me a detailed description of how this works? I've searched and searched but it's always gone over so quickly and nobody explains this step. I'm sure it's simple, but I'm dying over here. Lol. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks.

Where did you place the firmware file? I put it on my main screen. So I just go to either my computer or desktop and scroll until I see the file.
When you hit PDA, it's suppose to show all your folders. You're just suppose to find where you placed your download.

Just get on a custom recovery and then flash a ROM that is based on GPE, I think we have two available.

Android Stock and Google Play Edition are a bit different so you will have to do some research and decide what ROM you want to go with.
For our device we have 2 recovery options, TWRP and Clockwork. Both can be found in the Origional Android Development forum:

I am not going to say one is better than the other. I use TWRP, but mostly because I am use to it from other devices.
Download TWRP to the external sd , the download flashify from the Google play store, select flash recovery, then browse to the file you downloaded to the externalSD. Easy as pie

Not sure how you got flashify to work but the HTC one isn't supported. The dev told me he doesn't own the phone so it's not likely to ever work.

I couldn't get it to work

I just used flashify to install TWRP 2.6.3.3 less then a minute time.
Try this option. xda-developers - View Single Post - [RECOVERY] TWRP 2.6.3.3 touch recovery http://bit.ly/I2mP0P
Type: su
After that, cd to the location of the .img file: (i.e. if it was on the root of the sd card then...)
cd /sdcard/
Finally, flash the image to the recovery partition:
dd if=recovery-xxx.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p34
Here's the best place to start looking for answers: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=44905464
If coming from ios, realize there are a lot more people involved in the rom/themeing process so be more patient.
However, above all remember to search first. Probably 90% of whatever you are looking for has already been asked, so save yourself the heartache and try searching first.
After that, there are tons of people here to help you if the above tips don't work. Just understand that you have to put a little effort on your part first if you have an issue, that way it makes it easier for others to help troubleshoot.
Good luck and welcome to the community!

I'm still lost, type:su where? I came from the razr with a locked bootloader, so it was hard to brick it, I love the one and don't need to flash roms at this time but I'd like to have the option to and to be able to wipe cache, thanks

I followed the directions from a few posts above.
First, download android terminal emulator from play store.
Second, move the recovery file to the root of sdcard, noting the filename. (in my screenshot, the file is named the same as yours openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.3-m7vzw )
Open terminal emulator. In first window, type in "su" without quotations in the command line and hit enter. Wait for the popup to allow root access and allow it. On the returned command line, type in "cd /sdcard/" without quotations and hit enter. The returned command line should say something like "[email protected]:/sdcard"
Type the command "dd if=openrecovery-twrp-2.6.3.3-m7vzw.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p34" without quotations and hit enter.
Should look something like this:

You have a comma in your filename right after "twrp"

That adb and fastboot drove me crazy. It was so much easier with Flashify. About 30 seconds. With flashify and Meenova sd card reader no more fastboot and adb for me.
