Hey guys,
you probably don't know me, but I have created a custom rom for our Galaxy 3 based on Froyo.
It comes with both, the TW Launcher and the stock launcher, Launcher2.
So YOU are able to choose one of them.
It has modiefied framework-res.apk and twframework-res.apk too (Gingerbread look).
And last but not least, I rebuild the zImage kernel for speed and this is probably the first DEODEXED rom avaiable for Galaxy 3.
The only PROBLEM is, that my rom comes an an update.zip package which i cannot sign with the samsung key since I don't have it.
So if you guys could manage to create a custom recovery that lets us apply update.zip packages like in times of ECLAIR, we could use my rom.
So I need you guys to to this.
Then we can use my deodexed, optimized froyo rom.

question: what deodexed means??? i never heard that word before...
why this isnt in dev forum?
Thats good buddy.... Plz upload the zImage kernel with Deodexed
ready to try
Need some more information
Ok buddy,
I'll upload it...let's see..
maybe tomorrow after school.
But can you tell me : For theming and so on,
what needs to be deodexed ?! I only deodexed /system/app .
Does /system/framework also need to be deodexed ?!
AND : GOOD NEWS :
I succesfully created a flashable ODIN package based on XXJPA, which is deodexed in /system/app !
So please tell me if I should deodex /system/framework !
I'll add the Kernel and all the other stuff in my 2nd release
STAY TUNED BUT HELP ME .

If possible, could you PM the instructions on how to deodex a ROM?
Sent from my Samsung Galaxy 3 FROYO
great now we can modify the indivisual apps in the samsung...crap.......
and yes i thinkthe framework folder also needs to be deodexed...
right now we can only modify /hack the framework-res.apk and twframework-res.apk as they do not have odex files with them i.e deodexed....
while others are odexed...
this is the first great step to galaxy 3 custom roms and from that i mean great roms....
Instructions
So for you guys, here is the instruction for deodexing .
First, go to youtube and follow the video instructions of nokia7vista's tutorial for creating a custom rom for Samsung Galaxy S.
(Download a base rom that you want to customize (i.e. XXJPF) and download and install magiciso to open the factoryfs.rfs from XXJPF (in magic iso, go to open and then select all files, then you can open factoryfs.rfs). When you have done this, extract the content of factoryfs.rfs to your desktop and put it into a folder called "System". Put the folder "System" into a new folder called "CFW". Now you have to download the rombasics.zip based on JPA FROYO, which are found in another post in the xda - Forum in the development section. (Sorry I'm a new user so i'm not allowed to post links. When I am, I'll do !
Then, put the content of rombasics.zip into the folder "CFW".
After that, follow nokia7vista's tutorial part 4 to install cygwin correctly and install the HTC Android kitchen.
When you followed the tutorial, you should know how to start the kitchen (open cygwin, cd to folder where you placed the kitchen and type "./menu" (without quotes ).
And in the kitchen, you must first do nr. 1 (building working folder from the folder "CFW"). Then, you can type 0 to access the advanced options and type 11 to deodex. Easily select if you only want to deodex either only /system/app or only /system/framework or both.
AFTER you have followed all these steps, you have to select 99 in the kitchen. This will set up "CFW.zip" in the /kitchen/output folder.
When this is finished, you have to extract the "CFW.zip" and copy the factoryfs.rfs to any Froyo based ROM for Galaxy 3 you like.
THEN you're done

please post your deodexed rom, atleast we can get to know if it works for g3 or not
is it working for you??
after deodexing what advantages have you taken of that???
So my deodexed base ROM so far has not booted.
Any reason why?
Custom Rom (XXJPA)
@DarkLestat :
My custom rom (deodexed) is working, yes. But I think it's way to slow to use it every day because it's based on JPA.
When you gyus want me to release a super fast and super stable deodexed rom, which I'm actually able to build, you have to share the rombasics.zip based on XXJPF.
If anyone could do that, that would be great.

I'm using Gsam101's JPA Clean ROM with the ronbasics for JPA.
is that a reason?
How exactly did you get the factoryfs.rfs from the CFW.zip? All my .zip has are the folders I zipped into it, and its supposedly the finished ROM?
Sent from my Samsung Galaxy 3 FROYO
How would i go about creating a factoryfs.rfs?
EDIT: Anyone?
CFW.zip ?!
Ehhhhm...DarkLestat... If I#m understanding right, you wanna build a custom rom with an update.zip package..
If you are doing so, let me say that it don't works since samsung has implemented a new recovery in Froyo builds which don't allows us to flash the update.zip packages anymore.
You actually have to create a flashable odin package.
(including cache.rfs, datafs.rfs, factoryfs.rfs, modem.bin and zImage)
After you have done that, repack these files to a odin .tar package with the following commands in cygwin : (after you cd'd to your rom's folder)
Code:
tar -H ustar -c cache.rfs datafs.rfs factoryfs.rfs modem.bin zImage > output.tar
@The Dark Lestat: What's the source? JPF or older?
i have deodexed the jpf system/app all contents except settings .
deodexing settings causes loopback boot and phone does not boot.....
though i am verifying but deodexing is great....
i have tried changing the icons of apps, now they work, in odexed they were'nt...
though the gallery app, music player seems to be slower
spl. gallery is a tonn times slower. dont know the reason....
boot is fast.....
lets see..

Greetings all,
I am currently running build 1.016.04_COM_GEN1, and the OTA upgrade to 1.139.04 is failing- exclamation in triangle after reboot. It does successfully return to Honeycomb afterwards. So I did some reading (thank you all for so much useful info in various threads) and found that I had stuffed it up by deleting HeroOfSparta.apk after rooting it (I guess I should have read the post about deleting things a bit better), without taking a backup.
After finding the log file /cache/recovery/last_log, it tells me:

So I'm putting in a request for this file please- either by itself or as part of an image, if there is one. I did a pretty thorough look through the posts and couldn't find any links to a backup of this image or file. If it helps, all of the other files in the /system/app directory have a date of 18 Mar 11.
And with it I'd like to salute all of you who are gradually helping me make this the most awesomely indispensable tool I've ever had!

Doesn't it need execute permissions? Not sure how Android is as opposed to Linux, but rwxr-xr-x would make more sense if you intend to run it?

hi guys!
First of all : I'm new to the custom rom scene development. I do know how to flash and so..
So i've installed cygwin and the android kitchen. I took the stock rom provided to me by the manufacturer, i was able to set up the working folder. Then I did : "Build ROM from working folder", without making any changes to apk's or something like that.
When i got the update.zip file i tried flashing it with a recovery and using the update.zip in /sdcard method. The first method just stopped after verifying, the second method said it was an invalid package.
I believe there is something wrong with the signing of the rom. Could you guys help me out?
Thx!
Check type of script used in update.zip

Did u signed the update.zip while exporting rom using cygwin menu. ?
If you didnt sign it will notify that is invalid
But there might be some other kind of issue like
1. Cygwin provides updater_script and update_script in update.zip package it contain all information reguarding flashing
check that your device require which type of script .
let me know your responce.

So when I repaired the zip file with winrar, I was able to recover these files.

This zip file is encrypted, only if one could find a password to crack it, or if someone has the knowhow to extract this kind of files

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.
