[Q] Only 3 files in I5800XXJPM.zip

HI I have downloaded the I5800XXJPM.zip firmware but it has only 3 files in it. Now i am confused how to flash it in Odin. I have flashed earlier using both the method like different files and one package but this file is different. I think i need to make a tar file before.
files that is under the zip file is: factoryfs.rfs, modem.bin and zImage.
Please suggest me the right way.
probably you open the tar file, those three files are inside the tar.

not its a zip file which has a size of 125 Mb. Previously I flashed my odin with both ways (one package and also with 4 different files) but both of those files were different. Can u give me a link so that I download the right file. Make sure its XXJPM coz i will then flash to Indroid 4.1, currently i m in XXJPF.

1% battery mod is working only with fugumod 2.4 kernals!!
what you want to know about themes../??
Just go to themes section download any theme you like..
read all the instructions..
generally there are two to three files which you have to replace with old files in system/framework folder.
some have themed apks also.
you have to replace them with old apks in system/app
that should be helpful!!
PS A thanks buttob do exist there if u dont know !!
The missing files were logo.png and cache.rfs.
I think that missing logo.png is not big deal, but I don't know what cahe.rfs is supposed to do.

sysMapFile TWRP Error - Custom ROM

Hi guys!
Ok. so I'm (really) not a developer, I'm just trying to make a flashable ZIP (+ custom recovery and root) from the latest D80230f_00.kdz (told you, not a dev', but, yeah, everyone should starts with something right?). and I got some difficulties at the end of the process: when trying to flash the zip file, I got a big red error (ok, just red) in TWRP: "E: failed to sysMapFIle /sdcard/rom_name.zip".
Have you ever met this error?
Furthermore, I got a question about the update-binary file (maybe it's link to the error?): I've downloaded @somboons KK_template_new.zip, but their was already an update-binary file in it. I've unziped the archive, write everything I need in the updater-script, and re-zip all (see attachments), I don't do anything except ziped all: should I do something else such as sign the archive or thing like this? 'cause I don't find anything accurate about update-binary file: I don't know if we have to take it from other archive, or if it's create during signing the archive.
Oh, yeah, the recovery.img is TWRP 2.8.7.1.
Anyway, all kind of help will be very appreciate.
Thanks in advance guys !
@casual_kikoo
I would ask a mod to move your post to the Q&A where it belongs
I'm not sure if they move them or delete threads when they're not in the right sub forums.

Whenever u flash a zip for it needs to be signed, I would check or Ayysir's Android Kitchen, that's where I started my development from, I started just like u, only modifying touchwiz roms and repackaging them in flushable zoos format with android kitchen, if u need help let me know
P.S., Windows is NOT the platform to start development on lol, if I were u I'd start dual booting whatever machine ur using with a Linux OS of ur choice, for someone new like urself, I'd go with Ubuntu

First of all, thanks you so much for your fast answer. Yeah, I know Windows isn't the easiest platform to start development. Well, I've already have Ubuntu installed on VMWare, I just took screenshots on Windows .
Ok, so if I understood well, update-binary file is created during the signing step? That's why it doesn't work right now, 'cause I don't signed my ZIP.... Yeah ok I start to understand !
I'm gonna download Android Kitchen (this one right?) and start cooking !
Again, thanks you so much dude you make me more and more enthusiast about creating ROMs on Android.

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.

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.
