Ques on how to modify a rom without error

I wanted to take a first stab at doing some basic mods to a ROM and signing it as a zip for myself both to learn how to make a rom and to get the rom just the way I like it.
I wanted to take the IC3ROM v2.5 and make some minor changes for personal use. I removed/added some apps and then signed the zip correctly. One of the changes I wanted to make was to remove the DConfig app. I tried to install it onto my Hero, but got some error about "Unverified" and "DConfig app missing".
Is there some file I need to edit to tell it which apps are included/excluded in the ROM?
Thanks in advance.

FYI, I've already read the faqs and searched about 10 times. Seems like the forum here has become too assuming that no one is searching. I do searches before I post a new thread, which I don't do a lot.
FYI, I did find this post:

it seems somehow relevant, but I can't tell what specifically I have to do to remove the aforementioned error I'm getting.

HTC HD2: how to delete IM app?

You need to give us more detail.
What IM app? Are you using stock or custom roms? & is this a stock app already on the phone or an app you downloaded.

its a stock app that came with the phone.

Stock apps cannot be removed. They are cooked into the stock ROM.
Only solution is to install a custom ROM that doesn't have the IM app.

and how would i do that?

One Click Root for 10.1 Tab

Hello, just wondering if there be ever a one click auto root compiled for the Limited 10.1 ???
Thanks.

Nope there isn't cause this device doesn't have an external sdcard.

Doesn't the Samsung internal hard drive act as an external SD card ?? You can you adb to push data as a SD card.
Just trying to put my pennies across. Not a big brain to this stuff.

Wrong section, this is for 10.1v

I''d be interested in a one click root for the 10.1v too, so we can keep the thread alive at least.

Sorry, was not aware requesting 1 click root was not a development question.

It was moved because you are not a developer working on 1 click root. Main difference is working vs asking.

What are the benefits of rooting the tablet?

People do it for a variety of reasons. I'll just name a few.
1. To get updates before they are official
2. To run custom roms
3. Change processor speed (underclock/overclock)
4. View and edit system files
5. Modify anything you want
6. Wireless tether
7. Put themes on your phone
8. Use some apps that require root.
9. etc
It basically just gives you full control of your device, so you can do whatever you want to it. That's why its so beneficial.

I believe there's a process of program called oiden that will do this for you. Look in the development section.

the main problem is to find an easier way to unroot rather than flashing a stock rom (some original firmwares aren't avaiable on samfirmware )

It's called ODIN3, and you use it to flash a different kernel on your Tab. You can find tons of kernels in the development section. I'm a fan of Pershoot's. Those kernels will enable you to root and/or install a different ROM on your Tab.

Use superuser app to update other apps on your device

Hi guys, do you see hangouts 2..0.122 on play store but the app on your device is still on 1.2.018 and you don't find an update option?
There is a way to update all your apps which are updated in play store but the update is not made available to you.
Unless you have Superuser app which you get once rooting your device using VROOT.
Open Superuser( VROOT's Chinese) app, open settings by clicking on the settings button in the top right corner.
Enable Auto check installed App update and go back.
In the permission tab, click on Upgraded option.
Here you will find list of all the app that you can update update them all or the one you want.
I hate waiting
Though I wouldn't recommend you to keep this Chinese superuser app - security issues as mentioned by @Toledo_JAB.
Thanks mate..

I would like to recommend that if anybody needs to ROOT their device, PLEASE use a way created by one of XDA's own developers.
XDA has concerns about security issues when using VROOT.
The staff is currently in talks with VROOT to remedy these issues.
The issues are with the rooting program, the super user app may be OK. I don't think it was looked at but if it connects to a server somewhere, it may have the same personal information issue.
Thank you for the cooperation in this matter,

Then what's the best way to root the Z1? If VRoot isn't safe, which should I use?
Thanks in advance.

Sorry to disappoint you but as of now this is the only way to root z1. Hope some developer comes up with a secure way to root z1 soon.

Which Rom are you using?
SuperSU?

During setup, SuperSU was one of the choices, then there was another with a similar name (I forget what the other option was at the moment.)
That is, assuming I understand your question correctly.
2 exploits that were available did not work. There was even some hesitancy to install it in the first place because an alert said Google recommends you don't install this because it contains suspicious code (not in those words, but you know what I mean.) I went ahead with installation because I didn't hear any negative talk about it after a little searching through the internet.

Questions go in the q&a forum, report your own post and ask a moderator to move it.
Instead of taking the chance of bricking your phone, why not follow the routing guide in the sticky thread?
