Add an application in a custom rom

Hello,
How can i do to add a software for installing it during the installation of the rom.
I explain:
I need to have Estrong File when i flash my Desire.
How can i do ???
I put apk file in data\app and system\app, after i use sign rom, but when i flash my Desire no application appear.
Why ???Thanks

Unzip the ROM ZIP file, add the APK to just /system/app and then rezip it - if you put it in /data/app and the wipe before first boot you'll obviously remove the app
Works fine for me

[Q] My modified custom ROM

Being a newbie that is learning A LOT, my most recent question is:
If I have flashed a BYOR (midnight rom) then added the apk files that I wanted, is there a way of saving my modified ROM so that if I try something else and need to flash back, I can without reloading all of the apps from the zip files?

Make a backup in CWM before wiping, then restore it later when you want to switch back. That's all you can do as far as I know.

1st download Titanium Backup and save all your files on your and window information email etc etc . u hit menu then BATCH then back up all files and data ......
CWM ... got to restore n backup then select back up and let it work ..........
now after u check out the other Rom u go back into CWM .... RESTORE UR OLD FILE .... then download TITANIUM BACKUP and restore everything or just choose what you want NOTE: YOU CAN DO TITANIUM w the ROm IF U CHOOSE TO KEEP IT

Also, you can take applications from say the midNight v5 upgrade zip(use 7zip to open the zip file) navigate to system/app folder. Copy the apks from the upgrade zip to the same folder in the BYOR zip file; same for files in system/lib.
You can repeat that step for other apps you like from the midNight Extras folder.
If you ever have to flash fresh; then you'll have a rom zip pre-built with your apps and you wont have to flash each zip.
Absolutely utilize the backup in CWM .. that can save you butt ... before any theme, kernel or ROM install. That way if you hit a boot loop or freeze .. simply boot to recovery and restore your phone back to before that flash attempt.

Thanks everyone. When I get a chance I may try something different

I would download and install 7zip. make a backup copy of your midnight 5.0 byor zip incase you mess something up but not likely. right click on one of the rom zips and 7zip open archive. in that archive you opened there should be an sd card folder. open that and extract the midnight extras folder to your desktop (drag it to the desktop). open that archive up again and navigate to system/app. go into your midnight extras folder and copy all the apk's you want on your phone and paste them in the system/app folder. After this any time you flash this zip you will have all the apps you put in the system/apps folder and wont have to flash multiple zips for apps. this can be done for themes, boot animations, shutdown animations, fonts, pretty much anything you can flash as long as you know where to put them. ps always backup before flashing

I thought I read somewhere installing zip file with CWM, it needed the apk and another file (believe it was meta file)
Is this the case, or is the zip files with meta also for something bigger than just apks?

[Q] HTC Locations' App. on other Custom ROMs

Hi,
I need to install HTC's Locations app on any custom ROM (ie: MyOneV or CM9/CM10)
So any1 can help me with this ?
(i tried it though, by moving these files (from MyOneV5.0FX Removed apks) htclocation.apk,locationpicker.apk,locatiooninstaller.apk in System/app folder bt it didn't worked)

When you move those files to system app manually, you need to put right permission rw-r--r-- then reboot.
Or the simplest way is, open the Removed_Apks_RC5.x.zip with 7-zip (not extract), delete all apks that you don't need and leave those location files in zip.
Then flash the zip in recovery.
And these files will not work on a CM rom.

:good:
Thankz
I tried that too, by removing all apks from zip keeping the said three files & flash it in recovery, still it doesn't appeared in apps!
Though i'll try again may b missed something or some file..

I just tried it, it works.
Your filename looks different, attached here the files from the Removed_Apks_RC5.x.zip, I named it to location.zip. Flash in recovery.

It Worked: Thanx

Deodex ROM - Framewok folder

Hello everyone,
I have Galaxy S5 G900H and I want to Deodex my ROM. I have successfully Deodexed system/app, priv-app & framework folders with JoelDroid Batch Deodexer and put back these folders to their respective location via TWRP recovery but I get bootloop. I tried different ways to Deodex my ROM but failed.
I put Deodexed system/app & priv-app back to their locations and it booted successfully but when I flash the Xposed Framework via recovery, it says your ROM is not deodexed. So I am sure the problem is with system/framework folder. Now I want to seek developers help regarding this matter.
Please help me out to Deodex my official Lollipop 5.0 ROM.
As I mentioned, help me regarding system/framework folder. Thanks in advance.

Use this one by svadev, JoelDroid one is outdated

I did it bro, but getting an error saying "Processor architecture (arm, arm64, x86, x64, mips, mips64) not defined". Any solution?

You need all system files (app/framework/priv-app too) into the folder

you get boot loop because you have deleted entire framework folder so it wont boot so in order to boot you just delete ota folder and rest jar files dont delete arm folder rest all delete and then flash the framework file but dont delete arm folder

You need to copy the build.prob either to dont get the Processor architecture (arm, arm64, x86, x64, mips, mips64) not defined error
