I used to use HTC phones and there are lots of customized Roms(the zip format, which can be installed from recovery)
Anyone know how to customize Rom for i9001, I get a system.img.ext4 file from the official Rom, then I open it with ext2explore and can get the system files.
Now I want to customize those files and then zip them to a zip file. I know I have to perform a signature for the zip file. However, the tool for signature is HTC android kitchen which I can find, and it only support Galaxy S(You must use RMGeren's SGS version of this kitchen)

Hey there guys,
I just want to convert a stock RUU rom into a Clock Works Recovery flashable ZIP format that I can compile and decompile, I know that RUU.exe extracts the stock nbh rom file on the pc, I can locate this file but then idk how to extract its contents...or how to convert the nbh rom file into a recovery flashable ZIP rom file.....any advice? Also its the stock sprint rom for the evo shift.
Thanks!
Hy everyone i've searched for this on google and XDA but i didn't find anything i want, so the point is i wanna remove some of stock files of system and add someones new and i wanna make a zip file for recovery so then i can simply install the OS from my recovery mod... and when i wanna make some upgrades i cam simply edit with a normaly archiver program like 7-zip, winrar, or powerarchiver or another program.. i wanna specify that i'm new in development on android

Hi Guys
I need some basic help/understanding about Android ROM modification.
In particular for an Android MX TV Box - but the questions is generic and applies to any ROM I guess.
The Rom im flashing has the following files (and works perfectly):
factory_update_param.aml
hd18d_mx4.zip
recovery.img
I am able to successfully restore my box with this image (so I know that the image is working fine).
Within the hd18d_mx4.zip there is:
Directotories: data, META-INF, recovery, system
files: boot.img, bootloaded.img, logo.img
I tried to do a very basic step of deleting a single system.apk file from the system/app folder (no other changes) and I am unable to flash this firmware.
Any ides - what am i doing wrong?? It seems like i cant make any modifications to the zip file or there are problems.
I tried using dsixda Rom kitchen, and even if put rom in working directory, and then immediately
Please help - this is driving me mad!! Aaarrghghg
i need an update to my RK3066 to 4.4.4 kitkat that isn't in RAR type but rather zip. I've downloaded a couple different ones from the Malaysk profile on XDA and then converted to zip only to have my device recognize it as a bad file. any options?
Hi !
What did you use to convert it ? The zip or rar are the same
You maybe want a zip file in order to flash it in recovery but you have downloaded a rar which isn`t recognized
Open the rar archive and use the files from inside of it , it may contain an image an you have to use that one
Good luck !

i did try and flash update w/ the rar but the tablet didn't recognize a rar ext. So i converted to a zip and the tablet stopped because it stated it was a bad file. I thought something may have messed up during the conversion and did it again but same result. I've looked everywhere for updates to 4.4.4 for this tablet but no luck. the ones that i did try and flash would open update and then abort the install.
As I said, I understand what you have tried, now please listen to me, the rar file is not a flashable zip and you cannot just convert it to zip in order to flash it, the flashable zip file results from building the ROM not converting rar to zip
Rar and zip are indeed both archives but the zip you need is a flashable zip as I mentioned above
Open that rar and tell me what you have inside
As for roms, if here on xda aren't available then contact the manufacturer's website or go deeper into Google, as far as I can see there is no ROM for your device here on xda

Hi guys, i have a question...
Is possible create a custom rom (remove vendor apps) from XXXXXXXX.tar.md5 file downloaded from sammobile and make your own tar.md5 flasheable Odin file?
For example:
Original firmware:
XXXXXX.tar.md5
1.5 Gb
Removing vendor apps:
XXXXXX_my_firm.tar.md5
800 mb
I am interested in doing this without custom recovery, not zip flashable file, and not root.

Yes, you can do this, but things have changed a bit since this guide was written, you'll have to do some research to see what things have changed in this process from kit kat up to the current available android version. There have been some stock security changes that this guide doesn't cover and won't work with these new securities, but you should be able to figure out how to make this work with those securities if you learn to look in the right places.

This will help you create the .tar, you'll just have to figure out how to make the changes you want to make. You'll mostly be working with your system.img once you get it extracted.
