add/delete stuff to ROM then re-sign and flash?

Hi
I would be very happy if someone could tell me how to re-sign the ROM after I add and delete stuff to /system/app? what do I need?
thanks
edit: I read this but the link is dead, can't download.

Don't bother. If your recovery is set to check signatures, your rom will fail unless it is signed by the device manufacturer.
It would sort of defeat the whole purpose of signatures if you could just change something and re-sign it with the original signature.
Dont ask me to ever explain the math behind the crypto, but I can link a wikipedia page

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_signature#Integrity
There are a few ways to resign your changes to a custom ROM but you may not need to resign if your custom recovery doesn't check or if you use something like 7zip to open the zip but not actually extract it while making your changes. If you do need/want to resign, there are a few possibilities. A couple android apps can sign files on your phone itself: Signapktic or ZipSigner. There are also tools for your computer floating around xda to sign zip and apk files. I have a droplet called Android-sign(mac-only) to use every now and then. Also, there's always the testsign.jar method from the command line.
Code:
java -classpath /PATH/TO/testsign.jar testsign update.zip update-signed.zip

Here is my already modified radio3.apk from z1
https://app.box.com/s/0asv30uy7y7782rffcys
Excellent!
And still made ​​it work without headphones.
Now I ask something that might be difficult to make.
A kind of widget on the lock screen for FM Radio. When listening to FM radio, consider as if was playing the default music player and could trace station without having to unlock the device.
I leave here a challenge for developers, hehehe!!!
Awesome, this should be default. I'm going to do it in my z3, do I need to have root?

[Guide][Change displayed android version and build number][Just for fun]

This guide will show you how to change the information(like android version and build number) that is shown in your phone's 'About' menu.
First you need a rooted phone and create a nandroid backup in case you screw up.
This will not change anything for real! Like if your android version is x and you change it to y, the android version will still be x but will show y.
To change the info
1) Open any file explorer that enables you to change things at root level( eg root browser) and head over to the 'system root' area.
2) There go to the 'system' folder, where you will see a file named build.prop
3) We need to edit that. Open that file and there you will see some code. See the screenshot.

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
To change the android version, edit the 'version release' line (see mine is changed to 5.0 . You can do whatever you want) and to change the build number, edit the 'build display Id' line.
4) Reboot and it's done.
(There are a lot of other things to change which I hope you will figure out yourself)
Hit thanks if this was helpful.
