Change your Android folder to what ever you want and edit the startup.txt accordingly. You can have as many build as your heart desire.
Yeah I know. What I'm saying is....I used androzip to unzip to sdcard, which when writing to specified location OVERWRITES any existing folder named android with the one it is unzipping. I'm retarted for short

Use pocketrar and you can set the location it extracts to, chose something like Android2, Android3 etc then in startup.txt edit this line:
Code:
set cmdline "rel_path=Android2"
Set the rel_path to whatever folder its in, and there you go.

If someone hasn't already done this; can someone please make an app that lets you download strait to the sdcard. I only have access to a computer at home. It would be nice to download the newest ROMs from my phone and skip the computer all together.

Depending on the file, my phone downloads directly to /sdcard/download/
mine to but I want to be able to download a rom directly to the root of the sdcard. If its in a folder it won't work.

ive had roms in folders before, worked for me
Download Astro file manager go into downloads.. Long press and hold on the ROM and copy it.. hit the bottom on the top which will take it to the root of the SD card and there you go!

Usually you download the file directly from the webpage using a Browser, like Dolphin...

You can also utilize a terminal application and utilize the command "mv" to move from /sdcard/downloads/ to /sdcard/. Also, you should be able to install from a folder as long as you mount the system and select install zip from sdcard.
Hope someone could help me out with this one, I just did a back of my rom using xrecovery. Does that back file get saved on my sdcard and if so where, and does it get saved as a zip file?
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
It gets saved at /sdcard/xrecovery/backup/ in a regular folder. The folder contains 3 image files (system.img, data.img, cache.img) and a nandroid.md5 file.

I always rename the folders. I find it hard to keep track of them by the dates alone. I always name them something along the lines of YYYY-MM-DD.HH.MM.SS-ROM-NAME-BASEBAND. That always works for me.
EDIT: But I NEVER touch any of the files inside.

You can rename xrec back up but dont put spaces on it. Eg; gb2.3_Stock or whatever you like but no spaces.

Can you send me the exact content of your /sdcard/media_list ?
Note that it MUST be exactly that filename and path, not external SD!
Is busybox installed on your ROM ?
Ive attached a version which verboses all Output to
/mnt/sdcard/media-cleaner_upper-output.txt
/mnt/sdcard/media-cleaner_lower-output.txt
Please run that script and send me both of the textfiles

The script you are running is running through your whole root Filesystem.. this is why it takes 40 mins ..Normally its done within 30-40 seconds!
What did you write into your media_list ?
Did you change any other things such as the Folder Variable inside the script ?

the media list is there... just /sdcard didn't change a thing...
Sent from my HTC Glacier using xda premium
ok your media_list contains the follwing entry
Code:
/sdcard
That means you want to collect the whole /sdcard to your media-repository ?
Sry that makes no sence to me!?
Step by step how to again:
1. Download the zip
2. extract both files (media_list + S11media-cleaner.sh) to your SD-Card /mnt/sdcard
3. busybox chmod 755 or 777 S11media-cleaner.sh (make it executable)
4. add the folders you want to be displayed in gallery to your media_list
/sdcard/myPictures
/sdcard/DCIM
/sdcard/private/xxx_movies
5. run the script from terminal or whatever "sh /mnt/sdcard/S11media-cleaner.sh"
6. if you like you can copy the script to /etc/init.d for running on startup
Yes. I want all of the .nomedia files removed... my media list file seems to have no effect on the script... everything got .nomedia files regardless of what I put in the media list file

As of now, even with media list as is nothing appears in gallery is what I'm saying

Try new version 0.9.3 ..
Should fix that for you
I moved on to another app now, sorry I couldn't stand being without a gallery... I will give this a shot at some point though.

Oh wow, thanks!
I was doing this manually and was annoying.
Added it to /system/etc/init.d/ but that didn't work, it didn't add the files.

Does it work for you running the script manually ?
Unfortunatley i currently cant test the init.d thing ...
There may be a problem with the sequence of inits. I named the script S11 to start at an earlier point (does android care about the values??)
Maybe at that point of time the /sdcard is not mounted yet ..
So you could try renaming the script to maybe S99..?!
Please report back and I will change that
Howdy,
I root and flashed my wife's mytouch 3g slide this weekend and apparently she cant live without a specific ringtone. She believes it was called pentatonic. I did some googling, but none were correct. Would anyone here still have a default install that could see if this ringtone was on there? If so, I would appreciate a copy!
Thanks
you could always download the orginal rom she had and extract the ringtone from there, then put it on sd card in a folder called ringtones (make one if you need to)

Winrar, and then yaffey to read the img file worked great. Thanks!
Install a transparent notification bar, forgot to keep a copy of the original sysmui. Now i have no status bar and a black baground. If anyone can copy it from their phone, i really appreciated. Im on a active with mf3. Thanks

Could you go into a little detail on what happened and what you have done to try to fix it? I don't understand what your saying.
I think he wants the systemUI.apk for the active because he fubar'd his.

You can copy the file from root explorer without flashing. I was able to get a copy of the systemui and place it into the sys/app folder. Now everything is back to normal.

So you just copied the apk off his phone I'm assuming? I'm also assuming it's the same apk as the regular S4? (I'm just trying to get better knowledge so I can help somebody in the future.)

As the other person replied - with root access, you can download ES File Explorer, or Root Browser, give the app root access via SuperSU, navigate to the System > apps folder, find the file(s) you want, copy/move them where you need.

Yeah I'm well aware you can do that but I didn't know that apk would actually function like an apk if you did that. Just thought it was more to it than that.

As long as you have the appropriate odex file along with it and you know how to do it - it should be fine. You have to know how an APK file works, Applications are basically glorified ZIP archives. The java code is stored in a file called classes.dex and this file is parsed by the Dalvik JVM and a cache of the processed classes.dex file is stored in the phone's Dalvik cache.
An odex is basically a pre-processed version of an application's classes.dex that is execution-ready for Dalvik. When an application is odexed, the classes.dex is removed from the APK archive and it does not write anything to the Dalvik cache. An application that is not odexed ends up with 2 copies of the classes.dex file--the packaged one in the APK, and the processed one in the Dalvik cache. It also takes a little longer to launch the first time since Dalvik has to extract and process the classes.dex file.
If you are building a custom ROM, it's a really good idea to odex both your framework JAR files and the stock apps in order to maximize the internal storage space for user-installed apps. If you want to theme, then simply deodex -> apply your theme -> reodex -> release.
