I have a question about making a zip file

I would like to put a bunch of the zip files I flash and throw them all together and flash just one zip file. Anyone have any insight for me?

You should be able to extract the file structure of ur multiple zips and consolidate them into one flshable. Not sure how to explain it better than that though. What all are u flashing?

More then likely you will need to change the install script depending on the file structure of .zips you added to one .zip

Umm its a big variety of apps and mods. Like the volume hck, keyboard patch, stuff like that. Do you guys think this would be hard to do?

[Req] NS4G System Dump

Can someone with a stock NS4G use root explorer to zip '/system' and post it here, (you don't have to be rooted to do this).
To do that open root explorer, long press system and select zip this folder, the finished zip file will be system.zip in /sdcatd/speedsoftware/zip.
I can mirror after that so you don't have to host the file.
That would help us see the differences from the GSM nexus. I will also use it to make a zip for people who want to go back to stock after messing up or something, and make a deodexed version so people can theme there NS4G.

both of those things have already been posted in the dev section.
*will post system in a sec
**nvm, you want stock rooted, thats not me

I haven't seen a stock flashable rom, just one that uses Odin to do that, and all the deodexd versions there are modified with custom kernels and apps.
Can you point me to a totally stock rom

Resize CyanogenMod nav bar

Hey guys how do i resize CM nav bar?

Theres no actual option in the rom, but you could check out this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=38102614&postcount=25
I would make nandroid before flashing it just in case

Nandroid whats that? Ohh and i checked the forum out but it wasn't helpful any other forums?

Nandroid is the backup you make through recovery

Okay. Well i have searched around several times and i can't seem to fine anything that on resizing CMs nav bar.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app

You can't change it from within CM, but you can flash different mods in recovery (like the one posted above) to change it manually.

Ill be honest if You dont know what a nandroid is you may want to take some time and do some basic research before you end up bricking your phone. Messing with the OS of a device is NOT fool proof. Things can go wrong and then you are stuck with a non working device that you cant return.

Ok just learned what nandroid is and so i guess the next step is to nandroid backup my phone and then flash the mod from the link right?

Yep. And if something goes wrong after flashing the mod (systemui crashing, bootloop, etc) just restore the nandroid.

You probably didnt do anything wrong, its just that the mod didnt work lol.
Try out this tutorial. It should work, but its a bit of work.
These are the lines that you have to change:
Code:
<dimen name="navigation_bar_height">[COLOR="Red"]38.0[/COLOR]dip</dimen>
<dimen name="navigation_bar_height_landscape">[COLOR="red"]38.0[/COLOR]dip</dimen>
<dimen name="navigation_bar_width">[COLOR="red"]38.0[/COLOR]dip</dimen>

That's odd. It was just working fine...and now it says account suspended .
Anyways this is basically what you have to do(may require some other searching):
-navigate to system/framework and copy the framework-res.apk to your computer
-decompile framework-res.apk
-in the decompiled folder navigate to /res/values/ and open the file named dimens.xml in a text editor
-edit the lines that I posted above to your liking
-recompile framework-res.apk and push it back to the phone. Also make sure the permissions are set to rw-r-r

Sorry typo, by the way thx for all your help so far. I have edited my framework nav bar to 36 but i dont know how to replace my original framework.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app

you should try a rom with more control built in like aokp, slim, or pa if you want to change stuff more and dont quite know how to mod system files correctly
anyway, heres what i found with a quick google: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2159270

-Make a nandroid backup just in case
-Download an root file manager. I would recommend root explorer (paid), but there are other free ones like es file explorer.
-Copy the framework-res.apk from your computer to your phone. (just use the usb cable and transfer it over using MTP)
-Open the root file manager and copy the framework-res.apk from where you put it
-Navigate to system/framework and rename the existing framework-res.apk to framework-res.apk.bak
-Paste the new framework-res.apk
-Long press the new framework-res.apk and go to permissions and change them to rw-r-r
-reboot

yep I do that but as soon as I get done renaming framework.apk.bak the phone restarts and goes into boot loop.
I reflash CM10.1 and nandroid backup and everything is fine again. then I tryed just replacing framework but same thing happens.
ohh and mbucks911 the reason why I dont use AOKP is becasue my battery life with AOKP is terrible it causes my phone to run at around 38c which is warm enough to make my hands sweat and my battery drains 10% for every 10mins my screen is on. when I use CM my phone barely gets over 30c and operates around 27c for every and 10% of my battery thats almost 2 hours of sot thats why i am trying to stick with CM.

Try using adb to push it.

Ok, here you go - Read everything below first, before you do any of this please.
The usual "I'm not responsible for anything that happens to your phone" statement applies.
First, make sure you flash either the .27 or .33 radio. I chose .27 as it is the most stable for me in my area. You can find the radios here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2087227&page=1
Once you have flashed the radio, then flash the audio fix (using the old LTE radios on stock 4.2.2 kills the in-call audio - this file will fix it, just flash in recovery).
You also need to flash the build.prop fix. Both the audio fix and build.prop fix flashable zips are here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2327199&page=3
Once you have flashed both of those, you're going to need to replace your apns-config.xml file - I have attached the file to use so that you don't have to do the edits (just unzip the file first). In root explorer or ES file explorer (both work fine) navigate to /system/etc and rename the existing apns-config.xml file to apns-config.xml.bak. Then paste the file I attached to this post in the same folder (/system/etc) and rename it to apns-config.xml. Make sure you set the permissions to rw-r--r--
Now comes the crappy part. You have to factory reset your phone. But the good news is, once you do, you have permanent LTE on rooted stock 4.2.2. Yep it's that simple.
Please keep in mind, if you have already modded your build.prop in previous attempts, it's important to delete it and restore your .bak build.prop file if you want to use the flashable zip I linked you to. The flashable zip won't check to see if the mods are already in there, it will just write them in, thus possibly duplicating entries.
If you're build.prop already has these lines added:
telephony.lteOnGsmDevice=1
ro.telephony.default_network=9
ro.ril.def.preferred.network=9
And this line removed:
telephony.lteOnCDMADevice=0
then you don't need to flash the build.prop zip.
Let me know if you have any questions.

I just realized I didn't change the name of the apns file I attached, so you don't need to rename my attachment. Just rename the existing apns file before pasting.

I did everything as stated it worked once I rebooted it went back to h+ waited 20 min to 4 g showed up
Sent from my Nexus 4 using XDA Premium HD app

I should have mentioned, once you factory reset, you cannot ever go into the apn settings or the #*#*4636*#*# phone menu or it breaks it
Try doing it again and remember to factory reset right after you change the apns file. Before you factory reset go into the #*#*4636*#*# phone menu and set it to LTE/GSM/CDMA, then wait for 4G to show active then FDR

You made the mistake of flashing the Nexus10 16GB image instead of the 32BG image. Do a search and you will find solutaions to this issue.

Thank you for replying. I rooted my tablet and read that someone got the same issue after rooting so maybe that's the problem.. I can't find an Android 4.3 factory image for 32 GB manta.. I only see one on the official site... Can you guide me in the right direction?

Err which base? I think it's a bad download. The wifi here sucks.. So I think I must wait till I'm home. I don't have any flashable files. I download the .tar from the site and that contains a file without extension.. That's the weird part. When I rename that file to *.zip it contains the .img's (boot, cache, recovery, system and userdata. I can't flash the *.zip via fastboot. It tells me something about a bad signature. So when I flash them manually it boots but I only get 13 GB internal storage..

If you have a PC all you need to do is unzip the .tar file and run the flash-all.bat command via fastboot, I think it is the only safe way to make sure all your partitions are going to be correct after it completes. You can't flash .zip files via fastboot.
hope it helps.

These are the files you are supposed to get when you unzip the tar file, if you don't have the flash-all then it could be a bad download, I can upload the file later if you still needed it, but I think you should try, if possible, to download the entire Nexus 10 image from Google again.
