Install your own apps via xRecovery - Collection of xRecovery files

Hi Guys!
Now that finally the devs arrived with some amazing ROMs, I change these ROMs a lot every day. But I experienced some problems because I often do that at work where I don't have adb shell available. So I created an xRecovery zip-file to install Android Terminal Emulator before booting into the ROM the first time.
That gave me the idea to offer you some zip-files with useful (free) applications you perhaps want to have pre-installed on any ROM before booting it.
I also attached two blank zip-files where you can easily add your own apps, perhaps a preferred keyboard in your language or whatever you want to push onto your phone via xRecovery.
If somebody's interested we could turn this into some kind of collection for universally usable xRecovery files.
How to use the blank zip-files:
To use this method, you need to have the app available as an apk-file, of course.
If you have the app already installed on the ROM you're looking to replace, you can just use a root file manager like Root Explorer to copy and paste the apk file from \data\app\ to your SD card.
If you cannot get the apk file, you can request it here or send me a PM and I'll try to prepare the zip-file for you. Don't ask me to do this with paid apps! This whole method is meant to be used with free apps and I will not add or support warez in any form!
Okay, now let's start. As you can see, I attached two blank zip-files: blank_data-app.zip and blank_system-app.zip. Why two of them?
There are basically two locations where you'll want to install your own apk's:
\data\app\ --> contains all non-system-relevant user apps and should be your choice in most cases. If you install here, you can easily uninstall the apps later if you don't need them anymore.
\system\app\ --> contains system-relevant and pre-installed apps such as vending.apk / phonebook.apk / Email.apk / Gmail.apk / Calender.apk / etc.
Only install here if you want to replace one of these apps with a themed one or if you want to force-update market for example! It's not possible to uninstall anything you installed here the usual way! You'll have to use Titanium Backup or another third-party app.
Only overwrite existing apps in this folder if you know what you're doing!
So, just choose where you want to install your app, open (NOT extract!) the corresponding file with a zip-file manager of your choice (I'd recommend 7Zip or WinRAR) and drag the apk-file you want to install into data\app\ (for blank_data-app.zip) or system\app\ (for blank_system-app.zip. pretty obvious, huh? ). Confirm to copy the file there and close the zip file.
That's it. Now you just have to give your zip-file an appropriate name and push it onto your SD card to install it via xRecovery-->install custom zip-->choose custom zip from sdcard.
__________________________________________________
Some comments on the zip-files attached:
- Android_Terminal_Emulator.zip:
This is useful if you installed a new ROM and experience problems like flashing homescreen or no GSM/data connection. In that case, open ATE and type the following:
su (confirm SuperUser rights)
busybox killall servicemanager
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
This will restart the phone and hopefully solve your problems. (I know this mini guide seems not to fit here, but perhaps someone reads it before spamming the dev thread with questions that were answered a thousand times )
- JIT_Enabler_v2-zdz.zip:
all KUDOS go to zdzihu. Make sure you visit his thread to always get the latest version of JIT Enabler.
Note that you only need this file on 2.1 ROMs where JIT Enabler isn't pre-enabled! On 2.2+ ROMs JIT is always included.
- New Market V2.2.11.zip:
Make sure to sign into your google account and open market once (accept licence agreement) before you update to the new market. Many people experience problems if they don't do this!
- TitaniumBackup-3.6.7.1.zip:
You can also create this file yourself. If you open TB and tap on Settings-->more... there's an option to create an update.zip
- XDA_app.zip:
Useful for any kind of problems of course
__________________________________________________
So, not much of a collection at the moment, but perhaps there's interest for something like that. If you know something that will come handy to have it preinstalled, just tell me!

i like that point of view! well i only found one for creating a whole update. zip for a rom with android kitchen I can explain some of the basics inside this zip file this evening after work. a zip just for installing apps is created quite easily. it gets more complicated if you have to set permissions and things like that.

good idea!
thanks

Great! thanks a lot for this useful guide, I will use it.
Just one question in the same line like mezo, If I already have a rom zip file and I want to add to this rom the apps, would it be possible? and Could you explain us? or its just copy the files inside the \data\app\ folder?
Thanks again for your help.

Great idea, thanks!

As long as the apps aren't system-relevan, it's as easy as that, yes
For all of you willing to learn more: I'm quite a noob, too, but I'll try to make a tutorial on how to create recovery zip-files as soon as I can.
Won't be today though, because I'll go out to party into my birthday this evening
So long,

You can use the Android Kitchen to create custom zip files, I use the Cygwin method as it makes file management a little easier imo.

Great idea man, a lot of thanks!

1 zip - several apps
Is it possible to create one zip to install several apk's?
Maybe I have a few "stock" apps, the ones that I always need, and want to install all in a single step.
Can this be done or I have to install one by one even using xRecovery?
Thanks!
Great tuto and thank you for sharing

Firstly, the xRecovery depends upon its version of busybox. In the version I use it is 1. 15. 3
So re-install xRecovery(just in case).
Secondly, u don't hv to keep the back key pressed but tap it a few times repeatedly during the screen with "Sony Ericsson" logo.
Hope this helps.

sorry, backup and restore only works with stock se rom and mods based on it (like kx10 or blue sparks,...). it's impossible to install on any 2.2/2. 3 or 2.1 AOSP rom.

hey im having a problem.
I know that you will say "this belong to another thread" but since this way i can trick the thing and install again the system apps like the Package administrator etc, i need to know what to do in mi case with this method:
mi BETA3 was working smooth!
iv been using the BETA3 a long time but some days ago, suddently i couldn't install apps anymore (thouse that are in mi SD or frome the market...not even Applanet...nothing)
The screen shows the "barber shop black and white" bar rolling and rolling and never stop.
Mi USB detection is not working, that means that mi PC is recognazing the phone (it sound like a UYSB is been conected) but never apear the folder of the SD. nto even options of debugging usb etc in the notification bar of the device.
and when i get in Settings> runing aplications, all aplication are in "calculating..." mode. so they say 00 mb. and never stop triying to get the numbers. its so odd.
the other aplication (that came installed with the BETA) works fine.
I have tryed, erasing the firmwares and isntalling them from the beginning and everything worked fine with old firms like 2.0 and 2.1 update1. too!
then i do the root (first z4root, then busybox, then xRecovery) and make xrecovery work. install the beta 3, and again i can't do anything.
i triyed installing the BETA4 but never stop rebooting so i just yield and stick with BETA3.
any idea..plzzz!!! i really don't whon't to use Eclair...it's just so ugly!!

it's not working on mi xRecovery. i put the apps insinde app folder of thwe .zip and put it in a random folder of mi SD, then do >the Recovery > install custom.zip>Choose from SD card>confirm install the selected "blank_data-app.zip".
and it say:
Finding update package.....
opening update package.....
E i asume E means Error!) can't open blablabla/blblabla folder/blank_data-app.zip (bad)
installation Abnorted.
i asume iv done something wrong...!?!?
PS: BTW can somebody sen me the original .apk of FROYO bwecasue i can't find them , to use the system-apps.zip

[Q] flashing zip files

Hi,
Ive been trying to read me to this but i cant get it straight anyway.
Im trying to flash a zip file to the SD root called ps3-Signed.zip to my Htc Hd (Blackstone) with froyo (2.2).
And when i do the normal flash in recovery mode (tri-colour) nothing happens.
Also im i have no success with RUU aswell.

He's trying to flash like a native android phone
You could try to rename it update.zip and boot android..

Sorry its for doing the psfreedom jailbreak for the ps3. For that you need to install/flash that zip file to the Sd card. But i cant get it in.
I also tried to change to uppdate.zip and it didnt work. feels like im doing something wrong.
I thought i knew how to flash files but nothing happens when i flash the zip file.
here is a link to the guide with a desire. http://www.dkszone.net/jailbreak-ps3-psfreedom-android-phone-nexus-htc-desire

Blackstone is not an android native device, and it doesn't run from nand, and usb mass storage doesn't work, and recovery mode doesn't work either, so I doubt that works with it. Sincerely, I'd try to get a native android device to do that.

You got that wrong. This is intended for the native devices and you can't flash anything to NAND (yet). I don't know if it works on Blackstone, but more info can be found here.

Changing radio!

Ok.... I've seen a lot of users in many forums that want change the radio...
See HERE!!!! For european with Argentinian radio!!!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=27649093&postcount=25
I've changed the radio on droid pro... (american)
But I didn't remember how!!
Edit...
Yes I know....! With rsdlite... Ok rsdlite can rewrite the radio. Sbf_flash no...
The American users know this thing, but for European it is a good news, because they can flash an american/argentinian sbf without changing radio.... Naturally with sbf_flash...
Flashing american on european with rsdlite will brick your phone, without changing the radio...
European on American with rsdlite will brick your phone, without changing your radio...
But if you'll use sbf flash, your phone will be glad!
You must see only if you have a locked kernel... (argentinian 2.3.6 I'm sure... for american 2.3.4, I don't know...)
Attention!!!
Argentinian gsm is 800/2100
European gsm is 900/1200
So we can understand the european's issues with argentinian rom....
I'm always sure that we must search the radio in the sbf! Not files...
I've done some steps here, only for trying...
1) Put your phone in bootloader mode
2) Start with Linux Knoppix live cd
3) Open terminal emulator from your folder where you have your sbf (i've used 2.26.20 verizon SBF..))
4) put also sbf_flash in the same folder ( you can find here:http://blog.opticaldelusion.org/search/label/sbf_flash )
chmod +x sbf_flash
then
sudo ./sbf_flash -r --bpsw 2260.sbf
Connect your phone...
Reboot and now you'll have a new radio!

Just tried the hack. Unfortunately I don't notice any progress.
In fact the extracted files are missing after reboot (no bp_nvm_default folder). I searched for them earlier in order to use basebandswitcher but never found them.
Maybe the whole telephony module really is emulated in java (see /system/etc/init.goldfish.sh)? But what would it mean for us?
I also tried 3 other ways yesterday without success:
- tried to flash bp.img from Blur_Version.4.7.3XT610.Verizon.en.US.zip --> status 7 error in CWM
- flash a zip containing radio.img of a european Pro+ update --> installs too fast without any noticable difference. Looks like he is ignoring the radio
- flashed JackpotCalvin's ICS rom which also includes bootmenu with a 2nd boot config only containing init.mapphone_umts.rc --> I may have done something wrong during the process but coulnd't see any difference
@any user of the US-verizon model: can you choose between more than "USA Band" when you do the following?
- dial *#*#4636#*#*
- go to "Phone Information"
- press menu softkey
- select radio band
@anyone with original european froyo: what choices do you have?
Ive seen different models (including Pro+) which always let me choose between 5-6 different basebands.

Will I need to pull battery for 3 hours if I do the verizon update?

I don't know if this will help you or not, but I have the VZW 4.7.3 SBF file now. I just got it from a friend who pulled it from Motorola's server.
I have not tested it yet and have no need to as my Pro is already on 4.7.3 and rooted and is an engineering model anyway.
I will upload it somewhere to post publicly tonight or tomorrow when I get the chance.

I may have good news everyone!
After I have some issues with the 3g hack (files not showing up after reboot), I unzipped them manually. Then I changed permissions to rw-r--r-- and installed Defy+ baseband switcher to changed baseband to European (900/2100).
Since I've been mainly in areas with good signal quality the last week, I'm not a 100% sure if it really improved anything. But it feels like it!
Can someone please try this workaround for verification? The needed files are attached.
Thanks!

the right steps are?
1) Extract your I and II zips file in our pc
2) copy folder bp_nvm_default (II zip) from our pc to our phone under system/etc/motorola
3) set permissions
4) copy basebandswitcher (I Zip) from your II zip to /system/app, set permission to rw-r-r
5) Reboot
6) Open the new app
7) Or use my rom....! ;-)
it is right?

[ROM Release] Kiss4Droid (Based on B572G)

This is the 1st ROM I developed/cooked
It is based on official B572G Release so it's Gingerbread 2.3.5
The ROM follows a K.I.S.S philosophy trying to have almost no extra apps installed so you can build your system around your needs
Let's see what changed:
Changes:
1) Changed Default Launcher to Zeam
2) Removed a lot of apps from Huawei and left only the essential ones(install everything else you need from PlayStore or by installing apk files from other roms)
3) Changed Default CPU Governor to SmartAssV2
4) updated hosts file(no more ads) and gps.conf (for europe usage)
5) Added Volume Rocker Wake
6) Unlocked FPS & Root Permissions(of course )
7) Removed some audio files from the media folder to save space
8) Added init.d & build.prop tweaks(some of them may not work,but they don't have any side effect in the system so I left them there on purpose)
9) Changed Camera & Settings Icon to look like ICS (thanks to Pikachukaki for his great guide in replacing .png files in apk files)
10) Patched libsqlite.so
11) HDR function enabled on camera(well this actually is included in number 8 cuz it's a build.prop tweak )
12) Fast Boot Option is removed (again a build.prop tweak)
I have also made some little tricks here and there in the cust.img so make sure before flashing the ROM that you have a working backup and/or a backup of the cust.img
I edited the cust.img and removed all extra apps and module files there,and also changed the default language to english because without this the ROM would boot the 1st time in chinese
If you don't want to flash my cust.img that is in the .zip file simpy delete it from there
If you flashed and you want your old cust.img back simply boot into pink screen and replace it with you cust.img backup
There is no side effect from the cust.img change except that you will lose swype,huawei ime(I prefer the basic android keyboard anyways) and also the Totem Weather Widget
Installation:
Do the following in any order
-------------------------------------------------
Wipe data/factory reset
Advanced->Wipe Dalvik Cache
Mounts & Storage-> Format system
--------------------------------------------------
Now flash the .zip file
Reboot
Enjoy!
Everything is working in this ROM (because it's based on official B572) except TV-OUT of course
Anyway.Tell me what you think of my 1st work on android.
Happy Flashing

Nice ROM. Keep It Up. Post Some Screenshots If You Can.

Thanks.
Screenshoots added!
Note that the screenshoot app and es file explorer that you see in the 2nd image aren't present when you first install the ROM.You have to install them from play store

That's great. thanks for share.

Nice work..you manage to edit the cust.img??nice!!!i was bored to install linux!!

Modding the cust.img wasn't hard actually.
Btw pikachukaki,again thanks a lot for helping with my first updater-script issues!

Can you fix your Release? (CyanogenMod 7.2 (By Moihack)
And there are no such things:
1. GoogleContactsSyncAdapter
2. GoogleCalendarSyncAdapter
3. Gmail
To put it all in, as you should be?
And post it back here!
Please!
And if you can try to put this App inside if you can of course!!! Sound recorder from MIUI...looks like old tape
Thanks in advance!

HTC Stock (Official ) File Manager for HTC Desire 816

Hey Devolopers This is the official htc file manager thread
It was taken from The Android 4.4.3 OTA for HTC One M8 which has been extracted as an APK and can be further installed on any supported Android devices.
Link
The Biggest thing Not tha apk file ,
Can any Devoloper make it a flashable zip file so it can be installed from a custom recovery to the ROM to be a pre-installed app of the rom so that when we do a hard reset to the device we won't lose it and be a system app?
Don't need help guys , I made a flashable zip file of it so it will be system app (can't be uninstall it even you wiped your data :good: I will upload it soon in the Attached Files

God bless HTC, Thanks for this mido.
Any other Good new apps from this ota extract?

Thank you!

Would be kind as to explain what the advantage of this M8 File Manager is? IS this going to allow Sd to exTSD Data write or Apps being loaded to extSD?
Thanks

In KitKat, the external SD card is read only. You can't edit it. To change this you have ti be rooted.

File Browser stop unexpectedly
hi mido3366 or anyone else able to help - i'm new at this
I bought a HTC One M8sw off Ebay - it came from China. I can see based on the settings and using Root Checker Basic that it has been rooted and customised and I have SuperSU app showing up. Thus, I have a File manager installed which probably does not come as stock with the mobile? The file manager works fine. Issue is that, when I'm in the stock MAIL app and i try to attach a file by clicking on File or click on Document/PDF or Office Document - I get the following error:
------------------------------
Sorry!
File Browser has stopped unexpectedly.
-----------------------------------
I have gone through all the trouble shooting with HTC including clearing cache and data, rebooting, safe mode for 24 hours, deleting and re-adding email accounts, but still does not work. They have told me now that i need to a factory reset and see if this fixes it ... but i prefer not to do that as I don't want to remove all the amazing customisation which came with the phone.
Can you please let me know if there's anything i could do to fix this issue without going back to a factory reset?
Note: I'm not a techie ... so have limited to any knowledge on how to root, check root etc.

Which browser do you recommend?

I use chrome and for sites that need's flash player puffin browser.

Sorry .. I meant, which file browser do you recommend? Can it read/ write to SD?

Well my 816 is not rooted , i dont need it . If your phone is rooted and you restored pre-4.4.x SD Card permissions than root browser(file manager) is able to r/w to sd
