I guess wrong forum. Should be in general Android forum and not in SGSII.
Maybe this helps:
http://fokke.org/site/content/howto-create-android-updatezip-package
or this:
http://code.google.com/p/android-customization-autotool/wiki/UpdateZipCreator
Just make an update.zip that mounts /system and replace the gps.conf with your new gps.conf.
Google will help as well

[Q] Problem with rom files

There is two zip files on Quarx dev-host page one named CM10-20130110-NIGHTLY-mb526.zip.md5sum and the other named CM10-20130110-NIGHTLY-mb526.zip. Which one should i use to update my motorola defy (MB525)? Could anyone help me please

The zip file is the ROM and the md5sum file is the check sum file to ensure the zip file is complete and clean without download errors.

Flashable TWRP / CWM recoveries

Hi. I want to create a flashable zip file from the latest TWRP .img file and the latest CWM .img file. Can someone please point me in the right direction? I've searched all over google and couldn't find what I was looking for.
Thanks,
Mike

Thanks for the reply, but I still can't find what I'm looking for. I want to take the twrp.img or cwm.img file and create a flashable zip from it. I see that you've done it for twrp, do you mind sharing how you did it ?
Thanks again,
Mike

Download the zip and extract it. All you need to do is drag and drop the recovery image you want in it, cwm or twrp and delete the one that's currently in there. Then navigate to the updater-script (it's deep inside the meta-inf folder) and edit it with notepad++ It'll become self explanatory once you look through the zip file. When you'll all done just zip it back up. You'll have a flashable recovery zip.
Ps, I use 7-zip to extract and zip

Unroot & Re-pack firmware?

I had 50pc japan version of s5(sc-04f), installed rom 'G900F.STOCK.FOR.SCL23.FULL.MINHQUAN'. The downside of this rom is that its pre-rooted. I managed to unroot it by goin in supersu & click 'full-unroot'. But i had multiple devices to flash, so is there a way for me to re-pack this firmware again after i unroot it? So that i could flash it to my other devices without root.

Your best bet is to post this question within the following Q&A thread that's specific to your device.

Should we search for this firmware or you can provide a link to its thread?

the link is here : https://choimobile.vn/threads/6-0-1-scl23-stock-rom-g900f-full-port-v3-by-huaminhquan93.37412/

Generally, if it's 6.0.1 and rooted systemlessly, you need to replace boot.img with a stock one and remove SuperSU app from system.img.
This ROM intended to be flashed from TWRP, so it's an ext4 image.
You can mount it to a linux system on your PC and remove anything you want.

I havent done anything like this before. Could u give me some links or guides? My PC is running Windows 10.

Ok, here' a simpler way:
1. Make changes on one phone.
2. Make a TWRP backup of boot and system partitions.
3. Restore this backup on other phones. They must have TWRP installed, a 6.0.1 bootloader and modem.
You'll have to rename backup's folder path and to wipe cache/data/system before restore.

can i use winrar to extract & compile the rom, without linux? So that i will have a much faster flashing process for all other units..

Ok, I've managed to download that ROM at last.
The things look even simpler.
To prepare an "unrooted" ROM:
1. Download the zip form this post and unpack updater-script somewhere.
2. Make a copy of V3.G900F.STOCK.FOR.SCL23.FULL.MINHQUAN.zip, open it with Windows Explorer and replace V3.G900F.STOCK.FOR.SCL23.FULL.MINHQUAN.zip\META-INF\com\google\android\updater-script with the file you've unpacked from the attachment.
3. Try to flash ans see if it's what you need.

thx so much, already passed all units to the buyer. ill try that on next batch restock, may iknow if there's a way to get the service menu shortcode *#0*# to work again? This rom doesn't has the service menu.
