[Q] UOT Kitchen Problem - HTC Aria General

I'm on FR008 using the new UOT Kitchen and now for some reason, almost every theme i've cooked up (previously worked flawlessly) give update script syntax errors when trying to flash them. I made sure i used amend. Am i missing something or is UOT Kitchen doing this?

Maybe uncheck the patch9 autofix? I was having problems too earlier so I used amend and unchecked patch9. Just flashed the honeycomb battery about an hour ago xD
Btw just checking, you clicked on "submit work to kitchen" right? I was getting frustrated because I was trying to flash files that weren't mine under pickup. >< It's not like the old kitchen. You actually gotta go back to the "summary" page then submit. It doesn't show up automatically on the same page where you submitted the framework.

Yep, made sure every package was mine. Thanks for the reply, I'll give it a go.
EDIT:
Still didn't work. It seems every package i cook now is getting "E:Syntax error in update script".
Can't I just use adb and manually push the files to bypass the update script?

I am having this problem with CM7. I tried adb pushing (since flashing didn't work) and it sent my phone into bootloop. You can try it with FR008 to see if it makes a difference...

you can choose Amend scripting. If you have cwm 3 recovery - then replace update-binary file in UOT zip with one from your rom's zip.

That's the thing- with the aria, so far Attn1/Alpharev team haven't released an S-OFF so if i wanted to use cwm 3, I would have to revert to 2.1 stock RUU, and Re-Unrevoke with cwm 3.
Plus, I've given up on sense. Thanks for the reply though.

You can't just rezip you need to resign the rom. Their a re a few ways to do this. Easiest is using the kitchen.
Did you resign everything you changed?

[Q] Extract single application from custom rom

hey,
I wanted to extract "Torch" application from "Azure" Rom and few other applications. as Torch is the only working app which did really enable the LED for HTC Legend.
I actually opened the ZIP package to path \azure-1.0.1.zip\system\app where the applications are stored, every app comes in APK and OBEX files. I extracted few APKS, non of them worked.
I am seeking some help for extracting the application from the ROM.
Thanks in advance!
lamppu is a good LED torch. You need root to use it, look in market

I have looked in market, but it doesnt seem to exist there. However, do you know anyway to extract the application as working APK file?
Any other LED torches that works with LEGEND?
*EDIT: well, I found it, its named Lamppu. but anyway it didnt work, although my phone is rooted! why is that?
Try Extended Controls, there is a Torch Widget which worked on my HTC Legend. (NOTE:Root access Required For this very Widget)

If you find a ROM that has both .apx and .odex in the app-folder you will not get it to work by only extracting the .apk file.. You need both of the files in order to include them in another ROM..
Use a backup program like Titanium backup or MyBackup pro: they will extract for you.

That makes sense...but who would I merge the .apk and .obex together to be in one .apk file so I can install it?
Or maybe you know some way I can install these files?
Help would be really appreciated.

You mean like after loading the custom ROM, I backup the application I want then restore them after I load the custom I want?!
This is just long process of backing up your data then load custom rom, then back to the old rom, then root then restore...
I thought there might be easier and shorter ways?!
Any help would be appreciated. Gracias!
Anyone to help?????
try the kitchen method.
Scout around in the .zip to find the package you want, copy the .apk to your ADB directory and then, with the phone plugged in:
Code:
adb install [I]path-to-package[/I].apk

To be honest you've answered your own question. What you've done is the easiest way to pull an app from a ROM. So if your issue is something else it may be an idea to re-write your question (again, I know. Sorry).
I also apologise for mis-interpreting your question the first time 'round. I hope my help in this post is better.

Your help so much appreciated mate!
Well, the last conclusion I got to is, the .apk and .obex files are actually one file but they were divided to 2 files just to make them work better, so if you take the .apk file only it wont work as it will be missing the other .obex file.
Anyway, I am also guessing there is a way to merge the 2 files back, I read a little about "de-odex" but I couldnt really get the best help I could get. I will post the solution once I get to it.
Thanks again for your help mate!

I know it's a pain, but de-odexing the whole rom might help. Unless you already did this, in which case something is wrong with your download I imagine.

AmazonMP3 Package - Attachment FIXED

I have invited a couple of chefs to add this package to their ROMs if they are interested. I am surprised there is not more interest.
This is the package for AmazonMP3 that is working now. I extracted it using HTC ROM Image Editor from the new T-Mobile Leo 3.14.531.1 ROM for HD2.
The old AmazonMP3 cab that has been around since February never worked - you could search, browse, even sample songs, but it would not authenticate with Amazon servers. I flashed the new TMOUS ROM to my HD2 just to test this new version and it worked. The only requirement is to have an Amazon account, and "1-click purchase" turned on, but thats it!
I then extracted the package, and installed it on my Elegancia ROM, but was not sure exactly which folders to put some of the files - I had tried to manually copy files from a fully flashed ROM and put them in the same folders on my phone, but it failed to fully authenticate. So with this package, I just put all the files in a single folder on my SD card It works!
This is NOT the way I like to do things, even though it works correctly - It even keeps a download history. So,here is the full package, all set for adding into someones kitchen, or, better still, making a nice cab for the community.
Package attached.
Link to T-Mobile Official Update: http://dl.htc.com/ruudownload/t-mobi....aspx?pid=leo2
Here's a link to the leaked version of the ROM that Football posted about 3-4 weeks before the official one was released. Not sure if it has the same package as I did not have time to check. Providing the link in case you do not have a serial number that allows download of the official:
Sorry ALL - My zip file was pooched... Attaching a proper one now!!!!
Im going to sound like a noob and im sorry in advance but i downloaded your file and went to unzip it on my computer and there is nothing there at all. Maybe its something i am doing. I dont know. Next off is there any way you can just make this into a cab file like the old one was? I am very interested in this and flashed the t-mobile rom just because of this file.
This is only a empty zip file...
I would LOVE to, but...

If you read a bit closer, I state (perhaps not too clearly) that this is as much as I could accomplish. I COULD make a cab, but I do not know how to make one for a package of this type. (To install it all in the correct folders) In fact, I am still poking around the TMOUS 3.14 ROM for a provisioning file that shows what an installers steps would be... I put the package up with the hope that someone more familiar with that would either make a cab (preferably) or incorporate the package in their ROM (good, if I can use that ROM, LOL)
I would LOVE to, but...
Sorry - doble post (it's been one of THOSE days, sheeesh!)

Reflash a theme already installed

I was just wondering if there are a clever trick to reflash a theme already installed on the device.
In this particular situation I have changed some of the icons in the framwork-res.apk. I then copied them to the theme, wich is BrightSilence, and tried to flash it all over again. Result - bootloop.
So, is there any step you could do to circumvent this, or is the only option to reflash the ROM. and then the theme?
Thanks
Yes, just reflash a unmodified version of, in your case, BrightSilence or am i missing something?
Or revert to the nandroid you made before messing with the system partition.
The thing is that BrightSilence is already installed on the device, but now I want another set of icons. Flashing the theme again with the modified framework-res just result in a bootloop.
It seems there really is no shortcut, than to reflash ROM, then new theme.
Thanks anyway.

U are wrong.
Installing theme - means overwriting some files into new ones, not adding or removing some.
So if u changed framework file, flashed and got bootloop - u can flash theme again (overwrite bad file) and boot correctly.

I do get that really. But what now if I want to apply a new framework-res? I know I can always nandroid my self out of a bootloop.

U have to mod framework correctly and will not end in booloops.
Use Apk Manager to decompile, change, compile and sign framework-res.apk.
Do not push file via adb - use flashable zip.

But the framework-res is from the UOT, shouldn't that be packed/signed properly?
Well, I am going to try anyway, thanks!
EDIT: Tried to cook a new file, with the exact same framework-res I used earlier. Used UOT to cook, and worked perfectly. Thanks to mendozinas! ;-)

[Q] How to install circular battery?

Hi there... I'm trying to install a circular battery indicator using this guide -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=7172329&postcount=2
I go to the online kitchen and select my battery alternative and the upload my framework-res.apk file and get a zip-package in return.
The guide says to reboot into recovery mode but that doesn't work since it will only make a normal reboot.
I opened the zip file and copied the framework-res.apk file inside and copied it to the system/framework folder using RootExplorer. This DID give me the circular battery after rebooting but unfortunately it will keep rebooting in an endless loop (don't worry, I have a backup of my whole SD card).
There were another folder in the zip package containing the following files.
\META-INF\CERT.RSA
\META-INF\CERT.SF
\META-INF\MANIFEST.MF
\META-INF\COM\\GOOGLE\\ANDROID\update-script
Does anyone know what to do with those files, please!!??
Brgds... /Tubgirl
So it seems like the other files are only needed for the recovery mode procedure and framework-res.apk is really the only file needed.
Too bad it didn't work. I like the circle battery but am not willing to change ROM for it since the ROM I'm using is rock stable. MDJ FroYo Sense Clean v. 2.4

Thanks for the tip... it looks great and I'll make sure to use it if I ever upgrade to MDJ FroYo HD v.4.6.
I'm on MDJ FroYo Sense Clean v. 2.4 and even though the file you suggested actually installed the circular battery icon (which looked excellent) it screwed up lots of text strings in my Android. I guess the framework-res.apk really has to be customized for the exact correct rom you're using.
Thanks anyway... I still hope anyone knows the answer.
I FOUND IT!
