I wanted to take a first stab at doing some basic mods to a ROM and signing it as a zip for myself both to learn how to make a rom and to get the rom just the way I like it.
I wanted to take the IC3ROM v2.5 and make some minor changes for personal use. I removed/added some apps and then signed the zip correctly. One of the changes I wanted to make was to remove the DConfig app. I tried to install it onto my Hero, but got some error about "Unverified" and "DConfig app missing".
Is there some file I need to edit to tell it which apps are included/excluded in the ROM?
Thanks in advance.

FYI, I've already read the faqs and searched about 10 times. Seems like the forum here has become too assuming that no one is searching. I do searches before I post a new thread, which I don't do a lot.
FYI, I did find this post:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=551711
it seems somehow relevant, but I can't tell what specifically I have to do to remove the aforementioned error I'm getting.
Ok, folks... Some very industrious devs have worked out a more complete vendor tree for the Eris at http://github.com/punk-kaos/vendor_htc_desirec. I've synced it into -
$AOSPsource/froyo/vendor/htc/desirec <-- this is the level that all of the files are at (i.e. everything under vendor_htc_desirec/ from the repo)
I'm a little lost as to where to go from there. I've looked at multiple vendor trees, and everyone seems to do things a little differently each time.
Can any of you point me in the right direction?
Thanks!
Kudos to Kaos, jamezelle, conap, vinylfreak89, & darchstar! You really rock.
Ok, so I copied it all under
$AOSPsource/froyo/device/htc/
Since that's where the dream, passion, etc. stuff is.
Now, I do a - 'source build/envsetup.sh' and it seems to find the desirec stuff.
including device/htc/desirec/vendorsetup.sh
including device/htc/dream/vendorsetup.sh
including device/htc/passion/vendorsetup.sh
including device/htc/sapphire/vendorsetup.sh
I'm stuck at what to do a 'lunch' on now. In the vendorsetup.sh, there's a 'cyanogen_desirec-eng'.
When I 'lunch cyanogen_desirec-eng', I get -
build/core/product_config.mk:190: *** _nic.PRODUCTS.[[device/htc/desirec/froyo_desirec.mk]]: "vendor/htc/desirec/device_desirec-vendor-blobs.mk" does not exist. Stop.
** Don't have a product spec for: 'cyanogen_desirec'

Getting closer!
Applause
I read you posts and see the questions you ask(that never seemed to get answered)and you will post some stuff you have learned all to help someone else who might want to get started dinking around with a pretty cool open source operating system. I applaud you for asking questions and when no one replies you answer it again yourself. You are the true definition of open source!
Im fairly new to this whole scene so excuse the "dumb" question but what exactly is a vendor tree?
You are stellar. I am going to try and port a froyo rom and then start to build something from the ground up. The questions you ask and the information you provide is invaluable. Want to put a rom project together?

Thank you. Many devs have helped me to learn all that I have learned. They are busy people just like most of us. Some of them probably don't pay attention to the forum that often. Some just have their own projects. Some hang out in IRC instead of looking in here. Actually, I've learned a lot in IRC, even when I just kick back and lurk. I really do want to get all of the info that I learn out here in the forum where 'noobs' are lurking. I've found that there is a certain level of detail that is available fairly easily with the search box. There's a point where it takes some real digging to figure things out. My hope is that it won't always be that way.
I tried manually taking all of the files and settings from the vendor tree and inserting them into SgtShultz. It didn't fix things. So, I'm thinking that either it really does have to be compiled in or this tree and AOSP Froyo don't quite mesh. Since there is some source code in the tree, that is most likely the issue.
I never could get the lunch command to work. That file is not there, and I'm still not sure what it should contain if I were to create it. Getting this to work would really help both of my other current projects...

When you compile AOSP and/or variants from source, there is generally no device specific code - like drivers for instance. The vendor tree just sets everything up to add those proprietary files and settings into the mix, so that the resulting ROM will actually be usable. That's the idea anyway!
thanks for all the work you've been doing recently! i've followed the other thread as well... and am happy to say that i use (and appreciate) your work!

I also have a "dumb" question.
If this is for the Eris, then why are the files under the "desire" name? I thought the eris was based on the hero platform or am I missing something obvious here?

Great question! HTC's 'internal' name for the Eris is 'desirec' apparently. (Note that it's 'desirec' not 'desire'.) It was somewhat confusing when they came out with the Desire...

Holy cow! I did not run it because I already have all of those files in place. It didn't occur to me to check and see if 'extract-files.sh' does something more than just pull the files.
Thank you.

So, I commented out all of the 'adb pull' statements in the 'extract-files.sh' script, since the files are already there. Now I see that extract-files was creating the ...blobs.mk file under vendor/htc/desirec instead of device/htc/desirec. So, I changed that and ran it all again...

Thanks again! I know better than to do a drive by like that. I spent two minutes testing, posted the results, and then left to run errands for most of the day.
I'll try again when i get home.
so ive patched up the vendor on my computer (some files were pointing to devices/htc/desirec) and when i finally got it to behave i ran into something worse..
Code:
build/core/combo/TARGET_linux-arm.mk:39: *** Unknown ARM architecture version: armv6. Stop.
i ended up changing the lunch to desirec-eng because it wouldnt resolve the product name... im not a dev but i sure have a nose for this sort of thing, and help or an armv6.mk file would be appreciated
I made a tool so we can decrypt the acer updates easier.
Also added decryption key change if acer decides to change the key.

How 'bout telling him what it does, instead of just putting him down and calling him a noob?
@lpachuong, there's nothing we can do with it -yet-, since we have no way to re-encrypt them. It's possible we could do something like build a system.img and flash it with dd, though for now it's only good for poking around in the images.

Too many users ask lots of questions that could be avoided by reading the posts / some other topics. I can totally understand him.
Of course it's no problem to answer 1 or 2 questions - but there are many questions and lots of them do repeat.
for command line one can use this xor 0.2 (aluigi.altervista.org/mytoolz.htm).

It looked to me like he had read it, and didn't understand it, possibly to a language barrior.
Also, saying that it's not useful to him (in a polite way) is a lot better than saying that he's a noob and has no business working with it, and would have taken just as long to type. There's a point where he's just being rude to be rude. :|

Sorry, it's not. This info is available right here in this forum. All you have to do is look.
There is a difference between a noob and a newb. Right now all I see is a newb asking for information that can be freely found if one spends some time looking for it.
If you notice, the OP has helped quite a few people with legitimate questions and/or concerns.
Thank you for your understanding. But I should apologize for causing the troubles. I didn't know what the purpose of decrypting the zip file was, when there is no further step after that.
I guess I will be just more patient and wait until we can get access to the recovery mode. I just can't stand it when Acer has no update in Australia. I messed with dd the system and flex img before as well. Hopefully during this time, OP or someone else will come up with something that can re-encrypt it. I saw the chinese update.zip used signapk to pack the package but I failed to do so.
I don't mind being called noob =) People usually call me nerd so it sounds good to be called noob sometimes =D
peace.
dude you want to know how you're supposed to provide information and provide support?
read one of my guides below.
anyways dont apologize dude, just dont mind some of these cranky guys.
If I decide to keep my Iconia, I'll consolidate all that information and make a guide somewhere.

Hello Nookers,
Remember that Sense 3.0 Port for Nook Project a long time ago? Well, the thread got closed because there wasn't a full product ready.
I'm almost done with my first working Sense Port, but I just need one more thing. First, lemme explain. These apps fail to works because the dump I used was an EVO View 4G dump, not the Wifi-Flyer's dump. So I have now managed to get a hold of a Deodexed Flyer RUU. I have extracted the ROM.zip containing system.img, data.img, etc. What I need now is a way to extract files from those. I have access to a Mac and PC but if ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY I will install Linux.
Thanks,
King Black Bomb.
Moo
if they are img files you can use IM disk to mount the img file on your PC. then you can access them and remove the files that you need to remove.
Dude, before you got banned two weeks ago, you said this would be done in 4 days, and you are still working on it? This is why you are not considered a credible developer.
You can use winimage to extract img files.

As I agree with the user above about your lack of credibility I'll add some info here for you to try to achieve your task. Attached is the program I use to extract images. ALL YOU DO IS DROP THE IMG FILE ON THE EXE AND IT WILL EXTRACT.
Yes, I did say that, and it was a mistake on my part I thought I would have found the program by then. Turns out a didn't. @xboxexpert I have tried unyaffs it does not work on either Mac or Windows. WinImage? It doesn't work. For some reason it seems encrypted. Same for IMDisk.

You really need to read his old thread to understand -- in it, I was one of the only members trying to help him... at first. He proceeded to dismiss everyone's guidance -- consistently claiming to know better -- and continued to lie about "progress" for weeks. The extent of his "development" was copying and pasting the Sense apk's into /system... seriously.
There's history here with this clown, so please save your judgments for someone else...
You can try DiskInternals Linux Reader:
http://www.diskinternals.com/linux-reader/
OK, so you need to extract system.img files. You don't have to install Linux, you can run it from a Live CD. And mount loop the .img file to a folder on your system.
Mind PM'ing me a link to the download so I can do so for you? Then you can go ahead and do the port as you would say?

To everyone who says I'm not a dev:
I have been making progress, because at first it was complaining about audio drivers, then files in /system/etc, and it kept on going. Finally, and i THINK this is the last step, is to push Wifi-Only frameworks, apks, and the /system/etc folder.

Over the internet there are various guides teaching the lesson 'how to get out of a soft brick.' Some guides can be hard to follow and very hoarse leaving a noob feeling like he/she has destroyed their device. Fear Not.This is a comprehensive guide for less experienced users who happen to find themselves in a soft brick.
Dictionary - Soft brick - the phone can still boot, and be flashed easily but in its current state is unusable.
- Hard brick - the phone cannot boot and requires additional devices to do so (USB Jig, Riffbox).
This is the quickest escape route on the interweb and you will be done in no time. Here we go:
First Download Flashtool. Here (You may download any version from the previous versions tab.)
Install Flashtool.
Find the stock firmware for your device. For the x8
E15i android 2.1.1 http://www.multiupload.com/VKNI6Q6ET5 (2.1.1.C.0.0 latest firmware)
Dictionary - stock firmware - latest version of software released by the manufacturer
After downloading the firmware. Extract the file. You will be left with a firmware file with .ftf as the ending.
Go into 'my computer' then 'flashtool' folder then 'firmware'. Then copy the .ftf file into that folder.
Close the folder.
Now to make sure that your phone is recognized by flashtool, go into computer then flashtool then drivers.
Now Install the driver for the x8.
Connect your x8 to your computer.
open the Flashtool program.
Click the bolt icon in the top left.
Select the name of the firmware you downloaded (2.1.1.C.0.0) in the left panel. it will highlight blue.
Click ok (bottom right).
A box will appear telling you to put your device into flash mode. Follow the instructions it gives.
Once this is done the box will dissapear and firmware will flash.
Finally device will reboot and phone will be back to normal.
Congratulations you have unbricked your device.
I hope you found this useful. Please thank me using the button if you appreciate my efforts. #
This is my first guide. Tell me what you think. Anything I could improve.
Very good guide, cause didn't know yet about this..very thanks..:thumbup:
Sent from my XPERIA X8 using xda premium
nice and quick guide, i guess that what a paniced newbie search for!
suggestion:i think you should add about the installation of drivers,as many users come here telling that their phones is not recognized by flashtool
also change the 4-noobs at the title, is kidda disturbing...put "for" instaid of 4
There is about 100 threads about that. Just color of text and size is diferent!

Thankyou for everyone's support. I have changed the '4' to 'for' in the title as suggested by stamatis16.

As someone who studied psychology, I know that people learn in very different ways. A guide from someone else may not help a certain person. Different fonts evoke different responses and speeds of learning. Different colours do similar things too. So in response to the 'there are millions of guides' argument, I say . Everyone learns differently and this may help someone desperate more effectively than any other. I know that when I needed this help none of the guides were as simple as the one I have composed.
In addition to this, please remember, I am spending my personal time to aid others. So negative flaming saying that my posts are 'not really helping' is always a let-down.
Thankyou once again for the support.
Special thanks lyhengboy stamatis16 for comments.
Guys, think of it this way. Its better for someone to make a new thread which will prevent 2000 threads asking the same topic.
Hmm OP can we merge this topic with the existing one with Lucas? You can always PM him for ideas
For now I agree that it is somehow odd to create extra thread for the same purpose for noob knowing that there is already an existing one. Very nice purpose but we need to be organized as well hugs.

A: I would be very sad if you were to delete or move or zap this thread for the reasons you mention above. I have spent great periods of time composing and tailor making this for certain users. As a RC I hope you can understand my reasoning.
Thankyou once again.
EDIT: I have changed the title to make it seem 'different'. I also want to mention my 'dictionary' feature. I think this is different and may help my argument.
I fully understand you. Thy will be done
Can someone with a soft bricked X8 let me know if its possible to boot into safe mode?
Hold menu when booting.
Thankyou. I was a bit scared when you said you wanted to remove this post and 'merge it with another.' Great to know you are so supportive.
Yes, please do not merge this. I have benefited allot from this post. Merging it I think will take out the time put into to this. Plus, other people may not see this. I am happy the op decided not to merge.

Na it was just a suggestion to make the forum more organize.
I have no power either of merging nor deleting threads that's moderators job, we can only ask them. Have fun helping people
Thanks, man
I don't have a soft or a hard brick. But I acknoledge you made a great guide and thank you anyway.
It was also useful because I am still considering if I should root my Galaxy Ace Duos GT-S6802 or not. And this made me realize that even if it bricks, it can be reverted. Do you have any idea if a hard brick is reversible? Also, in worst case scenario, can I simply download the software from samsung site and install it? Thanks. And sorry if I broke any rules here, I'm still a noob (still scared by the introdutory video haha)
