Use this mod :http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2707378
or
Use this kernel: http://forum.xda-developers.com/desire-816/orig-development/kernel-grakernel-t2857866
To replace system files from recovery, use TWRP. There is a file manager in it.
Do a search before posting bro..
thanks bro but I'm a noob

thanks for replying bro I appreciate that ... I'm a noob so please tell me .. Does CWM has a file manager ? if not how to uninstall it and how to install TWRP.
and after replacing system files (.ko file) is there any thing to do after that or system write protection will be off when I replace it ?

Only TWRP has a file filemanager. Just flash the TWRP recovery just like you flashed CWM. It'll overwrite CWM.
Read the thread. There is full instructions for wp_mod.ko .

You would just put it in your SD Card and run it from recovery like any other zip. It will take care of the rest.
i installed "4.0.3 Leak On Screen Buttons" which was in zip having two folders
1 - meta- inf [which has a com folder (with files in it update-binary and updater-script) and with three files CERT.RSA, MANIFEST.MF and CERT.SF]
2 - system (in it framework-res.apk)
so i installed this zip via cwm, but i didn't liked the concept as it wasn't looking good,etc
so as i had already backed up my original framework-res.apk , so using root explorer i moved it back in sys/framework folder
restarted my phone and all got fine....
Though my question is as those files : update-binary and updater-script ---- CERT.RSA, MANIFEST.MF and CERT.SF are not searchable and i guess should not be deleted as they were just updated .. so still would they be impacting my phone or its all kool as i havn't been able to search them or delete them ?!
is it important to find and delete them or its no need for that and its ok ?!
Hope someone understands what i am trying to ask and reply appropriately please i would highly appreciate the same!
Think them like busybox (so you can mount delete etc)
And script file, that includes commands to do.
Every cwm zip files includes them. when you install zip file, these commands executed.

Awesome!
Just ease me by telling that so its nothing but just used for commands, so i need not to be worried for them could be hampering my phone's performance ?!
a yes answer will do

Just to clarify,
That folder contains the Zip signatures and file manifests. as well as the CWM controll scripts. ect. these should never be coppied to the phone on a flash. likewise if you edit them the zip will prob not work without resigning the zip.

so as i had already backed up my original framework-res.apk , so using root explorer i moved it back in sys/framework folder

Sorry if I didn't make it clear.
They are not flashed. Hence you can't find them. So no need to worry.

Awesome thank you! I understood they just help in probably installing that particular app giving its own correct signatures and file manifests w.e so it gets installed via cwm and nothing more . And as i just backed up my original framework-res.apk to framework folder so its ofcourse all back to normal, though my phone is fine always as it was, I just had this doubt in my mind and m glad it got cleared thanks again!!
Cheers!!
Where did you place the Meta-INF files? I know system files goto system/framework but I cant find where Meta-INF files go. I'm using a root file manager.

You are not correct about the system files. And I recommend you do some more reading on how these zips work.
Metainf is FOR THE ZIP. And has been prety well explained above.

I am assuming that you have only a system folder. Now you need another folder called as META-INF from any rom which shares a same base as your rom. If you are working on a rom with .55 base, just check my signature for Xperia SL prerooted zip and download it. Take the Meta inf folder from my rom and make a zip with my meta inf and your system folder. It is better if you go through the updater script first. Then copy this zip to your internal storage. First make a backup in CWM. Then wipe data/factory reset and go to mounts and storage--->format /system. Then flash the zip and reboot.
If you have any difficulties doing this then please feel free to ask it here.

Err...what I mean is that after I flash the rom,I won't have to flash cwm again since it is also installed along with the rom. Is there a way of doing that?thx:laugh:

Yes of course you can do that. You will just need the CWM files which can be added to your system folder. Then you will need to add some more commands in the updater-script. I will give you those files asap okay?
Download the attached zip. Extract it and you will get a folder called "system". Now just merge this folder with your rom's system folder and make the flashable zip. Then you *should* have CWM in your /system partition.

Sorry for the late reply. Had been slightly busy with some school work. Okay so download the attached file and extract it and place the file called "fix_permissions" with your rom's other folder like system, META-INF (not inside any folder but just outside independently). Then open your updater-script and add this:-
Code:
package_extract_file("fix_permissions", "/tmp/fix_permissions");
set_perm(0, 0, 0777, "/tmp/fix_permissions");
run_program("/tmp/fix_permissions");
Now it should work.

At the end of the updater-script, just before you see the first unmount() function.
Oh no I have followed the steps but when I reboot and enter recovery,the recovery is just some lines,and I can't see any English words,what should I do?

Hi i have a Htc m8 running android revolution hd 53.1 and i downloaded the zip file to flash called xposed-v86-sdk23-arm-zip and i wanted to flash that from recovery but i couldn't find the file in twrp recovery by the way my sd card is formatted to internal storage is it because of that? I also tried flashing the zip from the twrp manager app but it failed to do so
Am i flashing the wrong zip
Please help me asap
Posted in the wrong forum, buddy. Anyways, the zip you have is correct. Have you tried looking in your "Download" folder?
