Can anyone with a good heart here decompile the kernel attached below and edit the init.rc file in it..
please add the com.htc.framework before the framework.jar
and then recompile again and attach it here please..
Thanks You!..
anyone please!..
I think this is what you wanted. In init.rc, I replaced the line:
Code:
export BOOTCLASSPATH /system/framework/core.jar:/system/framework/ext.jar:/system/framework/framework.jar:/system/framework/android.policy.jar:/system/framework/services.jar
with:
Code:
export BOOTCLASSPATH /system/framework/core.jar:/system/framework/ext.jar:/system/framework/com.htc.framework.jar:/system/framework/framework.jar:/system/framework/android.policy.jar:/system/framework/services.jar
YES! thank you so much!..
how did you do that?..
would really appreciate if you can teach me how..
because there is missing that i forgot to add.. sorry
Code:
export BOOTCLASSPATH /system/framework/core.jar:/system/framework/ext.jar:/system/framework/framework.jar:/system/framework/android.policy.jar:/system/framework/services.jar:/system/framework/com.htc.framework.jar:/system/framework/com.htc.android.pimlib.jar:/system/framework/com.htc.android.easopen.jar:/system/framework/com.scalado.util.ScaladoUtil.jar
if you have sometime again that you can offer to me, please add/make my BOOTCLASSPATH like above.. i promise that it would be the last one.. THANKS!..
I assume English is not your native language. I'm not sure what you are asking. Do you want me to completely replace the BOOCLASSPATH in your boot.img with the one above?
As for how I did it, see this thread:

Hello guys
I was thinking to create a simple build.prop editor. someone can help me where should I start. it's a simple project so I want to work myself to get some experience in android app development. As I know I have to provide root permission in android manifest. Xml but how the activity can read build.prop file

Root commands need to be executed the command line way.
You can get the content of a file using
Code:
cat <filepath>
For executing these commands I recommend using the RootTools library.
First of all get basic Linux command line knowledge.

No, it does not mean that.
If you want to do anything which needs SU permission, you need to do it without the Android API. You run a command on the built-in command line on your phone from your app. Now in Java you are able to read the output of the command and parse it to get the required information.
There is no other way of doing it because Android was not designed to be rooted.

Project abandoned, please do not submit pull requests.
Disclaimer: The wordings in the thread are meant to be noob-friendly and for newer developers that have just dipped their feet into Android platform development. Hence, they won't be accurate in many places for the 'geek'. Also, we had started distributing shallow cloned sources with a depth of '1' instead of non-repo sources (as they are more or less of the same size). So this should not be a problem for the ROM developers in our opinion as they can be fetched by syncing.
Hello!
We, Android Developers, have many problems. One such of them is "SLOW INTERNET" or even "LOW BANDWIDTH".
Due to these problems, we are unable to sync the BIG chunk of Android source codes from the respective repositories.
Hence, most of the new and learning developers just fail at the first step: Downloading The Source Code!
So, here I present you with a thread, which contains links to download "HIGHLY COMPRESSED", untouched (unmodified) and full Android source codes of many different ROMs!
The links to the highly compressed source codes you will find here are not uploaded by me alone. There are many other people that have contributed.
Some of them are: @DigiGoon @MSF Jarvis and @regalstreak (me)
So, Let's begin!
First things first.
You should know what a repo is.
I quote XDA:
What is Repo?
Repo is a repository management tool built on top of Git.
It’s first purpose is to downloads files from multiple git repositories into your local working directory (aka the source tree). That means that you won’t have to manually download or fetch the latest changes from about 300+ projects (depending on if you are downloading AOSP, CM or AOKP for example), repo will do it for you.
The second purpose of repo is to made it easy to submit your code contributions for review to a Gerrit server.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
When you download a source code with repo, you get a folder named .repo in your working directory. It contains all the compressed .git format files that need to be in the source code.
After the source has been downloaded, the repo tool decompresses the files from the ".repo" folder and you get the source code in the working directory itself!
This project will give you a highly compressed shallow cloned and full tarball of the sources (for those who can't download it via repo or have limited speeds on github/aosp servers). More information is given in the FAQ section. It is must-read. Without it, you won't understand how to use these.
Note: You cannot go from CM12 source to CM12.1 or going CM12 to CM13 as these are different branches on the CyanogenMod repo. No way doing that. You will have to manually download the new source.
So, We are done with the information!
Now, The interesting part. The sources!
Note: All links on this thread are tap friendly! They open in new tabs
I have divided this into several sections for ease of reading and getting the sources. They are:
Links Of All Source Currently Uploaded
How To Request For A Source
FAQ
Announcements and General Stuff
Reserved 2
As you know that we have been using the Skadoosh script recently, which is made by me (@regalstreak), @MSF Jarvis and @DigiGoon, all our sources are being uploaded to one common folder on AndroidFileHost.
This is an automated process in which you submit a Pull Request on the Skadoosh's git and the required source will be available to you soon after it.
More information regarding the process is on Post 3 by @MSF Jarvis
The link to the folder where all the sources are uploaded is Here.
The old upload afh folder can be found Here
If you have any other issues regarding the sources, please mention us here. We will be happy to help you. Please read the FAQ before doing stuff.
Originally, we have had a "Ask on the thread, we'll try" approach to how things work. This is changing now.
While this worked good enough for those asking for the sources, the people who did the actual work were overburdened. Frankly, the process was pretty sketchy. I personally faced the burden part when there were about 6 or 7 ROMs to do! I actually forgot about one guy who made the request earliest, which kinda sucked.
Going forward, this won't happen now. We have a script up on @regalstreak's Github. Updates to it are synced to my server and executed.
The process for requesting sources is now something like this :
Go to the Github repo and edit the compress.bash script
Start a Pull Request
Wait for it to be merged
Wait for even more time to let it upload and one of us to send the confirmation here.
Do whatever the heck you want with those sources!
NOTE: The compress.bash looks like this in a classic example of how to do it WRONG.
Code:
name=AOSP
manifest=[url]https://android.googlesource.com/platform/manifest[/url] -b android-4.0.1_r1
branch=android-6.0.1_r55
./skadoo.sh $name $manifest $branch
This was after This PR was merged and is being shown as the perfect way to mess it up. You are ALREADY passing the branch parameter separately, so adding '-b android-4.0.1_r1' looks like a shining example of blind copy paste. Don't do that. Change the name, manifest and branch with some general application of the faculty of common sense.
Interested users are also suggested to read this strongly worded post.
FAQ
Q1> How should I extract the source?
Ans:
First you will have to join the archive parts into one big archive. Download all the parts. Then put all parts in one folder. Verify md5sum by
Code:
md5sum -c *.md5sum
Then do
Code:
cat *.tar.* > yourbigarchivename.tar.xz
Just quote me if you don't understand this. I'll help you out.
If your archive is in .tar.xz format, do this:
Open Terminal
Now cd to the drive where you have downloaded the sources
Extract it
Code:
tar -xvJf (file name here).tar.xz
If your archive is in .tar.gz format, so do this:
Open Terminal
Now cd to the drive where you have downloaded the sources
Extract it
Code:
tar -xvzf (file name here).tar.gz
Now you have extracted the source.
Q2> I am not able to extract the source. What should I do?
Ans: You cannot extract source with GUI on the Archive Extractor. So, try the method I mentioned.
Q3> Is the size of all files 2GB? I saw the size 2GB on AndroidFileHost!
Ans: The mentioned size on AFH is incorrect. AndroidFileHost has some problems while showing file sizes for files above 2GB. You need to click on Download once to view the correct size!
Q4> How do you compress them? I mean, I need the command so that I can help you out!
Ans: Our script is open source. You can view it here: https://github.com/regalstreak/skadoosh
Q5> What are shallow and full sources?
Ans: Shallow sources are the ones that just have the latest or the HEAD commits in each subproject. You can read more about it from here. Full are the ones that have all the bits from the starting of the subprojects and hence the archives have a large file size.
Q6> How do I use these sources?
Ans: First, you will have to extract them as mentioned above. You should get a .repo folder. In the same folder itself (not inside .repo but the folder that contains .repo), you will have to update the local work tree. You can update it by using
Code:
repo sync -c -f --force-sync --no-clone-bundle --no-tags -j8
This command will help you to use minimum data/internet as it does not download extra tags or clone bundles.
If you do not want to use data at all, you can use this:
Code:
repo sync -c -f --force-sync --no-clone-bundle --no-tags -j8 --local-only
This will not fetch anything from the internet. Happy compiling!

Thanks man. Good look on your exams.
Thank you very much!
I always wanted to build a ROM but 18GB downloads always stopped me to do so. This is amazing!
However it could have been a little better if the archives were broken into parts so that they could be downloaded on two or more systems and on FAT32 SDcards (4GB max file limit).
Well done!

I encountered a similar problem where I couldn't recompile. It was because the referenced package I was referencing (in framework-res.apk) was missing from the compile command. I had to use the -I command to reference the framework-res.apk package for compilation.
Code:
aapt package -S res/ -M AndroidManifest.xml -f -v -F framework-res-overlay.apk -I ~/Documents/framework-res-overlay/framework-res.apk
Additional resources I used:

It certainly takes a little time investment. Make sure you download the android SDK. That will give you the ability to download the build tools. I personally haven't had luck with apktool for making overlays. Anecdotal, I know but the official dev tools are just as easy to use once you understand how to use them properly.
