i don't know if this was differ from other phone,but give it a try
get the rom that you want to flash..use 7-zip don't extract all just replace boot.img for kernel and you can delete some of the app that you don't want on system>app and priv-app folder.

I have updated my phone to adrynalyne's DL09 Super Clean 0.4/DL30 1.0 version. I want to install couple of stock apps that are part of a patch provided by adrynalyne. (TW super pack, includes widgets and music player, etc)
My question is - Can I unzip the patch and remove apps that I don't want to install and create a new zip? Basically deleting unwanted apks under system\app of the zip. Would this work?
Extract the apk file from the full DL30 and paste into the system/app folder. I do this for thinkdroid every time I flash.

Stupid question but how to get to /system? using file manager or recovery?
i've extracted the zip files, but no clue where to put them :|
(system stuff goes into the system folder, but what about the META-INF folder?)
install it with xrecovery.

thanks, was hoping to avoid using xrecovery, didn't feel like rebooting 3 times
guess there's no alternate way then..
ah custom.zip

camera n compass u flash it in xrecovery. u can flash both then reboot without having to reboot after each flash.
as for mddi u need to do it manually for now i don't think doixanh made a xrecovery zip yet
the meta-inf folder basically just contains a script to tell xrecovery where to copy the files.

You need to flash bootanimationsenabler zip. You might find it on Omega files app but not sure. If not just search it
Then you will be able to flash bootanimation zip files
Hi I created a bootanimation and want to make it flashable. I followed tutorials from the net and xda. I got two files META-INF and system.
I put my bootanimation.zip in system/media. That's all. I didn't touch META-INF .
After flashing the zip in cwm, it says Installation aborted . Need Help please...
thats because the flashable zip wasnt for your phone
status 0 - wrong update binary
status 6 - wrong update script
here is my template for you
simply download it
open it in winrar (or if using phone just unzip everything)
open the system foler
you will notice a framework folder that is currently empty
you can leave this folder as it is
just create folders to where you want to flash the file to
for example your bootanimation.zip create the following
in the system folder create a folder called media
in the media folder place your bootanimation.zip
the same is true for any other files you want to flash
if you want to flash a file to system/framework just put a file in that folder
if you want to flash a file to system/app just create a folder called app in the system folder and put what you want to flash there
if on winrar you just have to open the zip and right click and create a folder - no need to unzip everything
if on phone and you have unzipped everything just zip everything back up when done
flashable zip template can be download from here
if you are using stock rom you need to enable custom boot animations first using the custom boot enabler zip
(if you already have a custom boot animation and bootanimation.zip working in a custom rom then you dont need to do this)

If just a bootanimanion, push using root browser only
Or using a another flashable bootanimation file and the replace the bootanimation.zip with yours
I attch it . Credits to its maker
works perfectly! thanks
Sometime in mod guide.. we need to copy file/folder in original apk after modified... like androidmanifest.xml/classes.dex/etc.. so my question is when we need to copy it?
I only copy meta-inf and androidmanifest to the build folder (you need to compile the folder to get the build folder and then recompile again after placing files there) if im not resigning the apk

so you want to say that if copy meta-inf and androidmanifest to modded apk, we dont need sign apk.. that what you mean?

But in this guide forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2018688 the additional instruction said copy classes.dex from original unmodified apk and paste it in modified apk.. when this step is necessary?
