[Q] Include Bali Kernel in a ROM I'm building?

I'm attempting to build my first ROM and I'm curious how to add a kernel to the ROM.
(more specifically, Bali)
Any help is appreciated.

i cant answer your question, but if you need any help, let me know and i will help out any way i can

In updater script
Code:
set_perm(0, 0, 755, "/tmp/updates/redbend_ua");
ui_print("++ Installing kernel");
run_program("/tmp/updates/redbend_ua", "restore", "/tmp/updates/zImage", "/dev/block/bml7");
You'll need redbend_ua and zImage which you can find in the updates folder of other roms. I'd ask a dev if you can use them. I can't believe it's not butter uses them.

Alright, but before doing that...I'm getting an error when trying to flash the custom ROM in CWM.
E: Error in /scard/test1.zip
(status 6)
Installation aborted.
Any ideas?

Yeah I saw that, except I have no idea how to fix it.

If you use notepad++, open the updater script, go to Edit > EOL Conversion > Unix format. Do that for any other text files/scripts you have.

Thanks, but where is the updater script?
hahah sorry this is my first time making a ROM

META-INF\com\google\android\updater-script

Thank you!

funny, because with this one (without flashing libs from PG88IMG.zip) got it fully working.
i think system mount /lib folder as /system/lib but files are localated in /lib folder.
am i right or ?
// edit: can you please upload your update-script here ?

Whats the difference between this and proxyuser's

1. it's only for new hboot
2. fully stock, nothing from me
3. proxuser's rom better in some little features because I deep system developer...proxuser great man in user features! =)

with same method i'll try other sense roms to flash.
maybe this feature help us to keep in system folder a little space.

You're right...it's saga_v1_0822.zip.
I think that mixing different roms not good way.
In my opinion, better I have one stable rom without something features, but it would be fully working without any fixes

Sorry for the noobish question, but I'm quite new to the Desire S (I come from a Magic 32A).
In order to use this ROM I have just to update the HBOOT and flash the ROM, am I right?

The PG88IMG-2.3.5.zip file?

How to create a flashable zip file?

Just spent a few hours on modifying few files..
I have modified:
framework.jar
android.policy.jar
framework-res.apk
(All for the system/framework folder )
So, I wanna create a flashable zip file that can be flashed from CWM recovery...
Following this guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=732957
Looking at the fact that it's nearly 1AM for me presently and I'm sleepy, it's a bit hard to understand...
If anyone can tell me the contents of updater-script file...it'll be helpful
Also, some help there with the update-binary too..
Can I use the files created by UOT kitchen?

The updater-script is mainly text, since your 3 files are in the system folder, you're going to want to mount system, extract package, and then unmount system.
mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p25", "/system");
package_extract_dir("system", "/system");
unmount("/system");
The bolded text can vary. That goes in the updater script. the updater-script should be accompanied by update-binary, and should be placed in [projectname]/META-INF/com/google/android.
now, inside your [projectname] folder, you should have /system/framework/[your three files go here].
Now build that, sign it (CWM will throw an Error 7 for some odd reason if it's not signed and is not a full ROM), and flash it and see how that goes.

Thank you for the answer
Another thing, can you please those values which you have given in bold?
Also, what to put in the updater-binary file?

I wouldn't know, those values vary from phone to phone. What may work on mine may not work with yours. Also you don't have to modify the updater-binary, just place it there.

[GUIDE]Step by step guide file edits to port I9300-I9305+ CWM .zip Jkay mod for I9305

Hey guys,
**TESTING ONLY** ALPHA WARNING...NOT TESTED AS YET! PLEASE MAKE A BACKUP IN RECOVERY FIRST!!!!!
Tested and working. Some settings not implementer fully though? Unsure if this is a bug or if this is due to my mods, but will be investigating further.
*UPDATE* Updated the updater script to check the build.prop AFTER the file system has been mounted, this was causing a failure due to write protect and booting us out of the installation tested and the script is working fine
*UPDATE* updated the android.policy.jar to Jkay deluxe version as the main base. I will be looking into how the deluxe settings app checks this file to ensure it is the correct version, If this is smali textual based then we have no problems for future releases, however if it is somehow checking against MD5 hashes for this file and we make edits as what is descibed below then this is always going to break the settings app and put it in demo mode. I will report back here when I have more information.
Attached are some downloads for everyone. One is the Jkay Mod for XXELKC (only) port to our devices GT-I9305. I haven't had a chance to test it yet as I am very busy. The flashable zip does NOT include the Deluxe settings apk (it doesn't delete it from system app if you do have it though, must be version 14.3x to work though) you will still need to purchase this from the Google Play store.
Hence another reason why I have not tested this package (a long story) anyways...cause I don't have access to the Deluxe Settings apk.
Currently been testing this and its working fine but with some bugs? Unsure if these are port related or the fact that Jkay deluxe is alpha and buggy?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
There is a step by step process on how to EDIT FILES jar files that are required for porting GT-I9300 ROMs to I9305. All other steps and configurations that a required for porting that do not involve file edits (only swapping files in and out) are not covered by this guide. There are many additional steps not covered by this guide that are required in addition to these steps in order to make full port of a ROM. Additional,libraries, binaries, build.prop edits, apks and permissions xmls are required
The above are mentioned additional requirements for a full port are outside the scope of this guide but maybe included in following updates
**UPDATE** please do not migrate or change anything in the android.policy.jar file for Jkay settings files if you are wanting to port them in the furture, The Deluxe settings application checks this file to ensure you are running the correct version and running the Jkay framework. If you are receiving framework mismatch type errors this is due to running an illegal copy of the Jkay Deluxe Settings application. The application checks back to GooglePlay store to see if your google account is a registered user or not, when this fails the app defaults into demo mode. Clearing application data results in settings being wipe and a reconfigure is required. Note: That none of your settings are retained by the deluxe settings app after a reboot if it has failed license checking.
I have also included all the smali and baksmali files and wrapper scripts along with the add and replace files to port the necessary files to make GT-I9300 ROMS work on our devices.
YOU MUST DO IT IN THIS ORDER!
*** please please do the remove smali files processes first!***
NOTE: The remove folders e.g framework2-remove are here *ONLY* as a references for you! What I mean is that you now have to navigate the folders of your decompiled files and remove these specific smali references from the GT-I9300 jar files.
There are 4 main files to change and several changes to be done, so please make sure you give thanks to developers like AusDim for his ahard work. When you see the amount of files you may appreciate this
I was working this port myself, but it wore thin on my patience, alas I diverse....
android.policy.jar please disregard the edits to this file as we have found that the standard Android.policy.jar file from standard I9300 seems to be all in order to work on the LTE device. More information regarding this file may come in future updates
framework.jar
framework2.jar
services.jar
HOW TO:
Use the open_commandprompt_here to launch cmd in the current directory.
decompile the specific file like following, in this example I have chosen services.jar file. NOTE: You may also wish to perform any other modifications to the services at this time i.e. V6Supercharger multi-tasking update for JB (thanks to zepplinrocks)
e.g
Code:
decompile services.jar
open the folder services-add and copy the "com" folder
open the out folder and you will see another "com" folder inside; hit paste. Accept any prompts to overwrite smali files or folders. click yes to all bla bla bla
recompile the smail code like this:
e.g
Code:
recompile out -o classes.dex
Right click your services.jar file and open it with say 7zip or WinRAR or what ever archive application you currently use; inside you will see a classes.dex file. You are now going to drag and drop your new compiled classes.dex file in over the top of the existing one.
Close your services.jar file
and you are done!
Now repeat to the other remaining jar files and Bob's ya aunty you're good to go
Special thanks goes out to:
_Jkay_ first and foremost for the awesome Jkay Deluxe framework
Thanks to AusDim who put in the hard yards to getting the initial port done for us I9305 users. Your work is very much appreciated by me mate.
Thanks to txr33 for his work in the back ground in the early stages as we both tried to nut out what the f#*% was going on with our stupid port :silly: ...
If I have left anyone off this list, then please contact me and I will be more than happy to add you (thats if you have helped and don't just want to be famous jks)
Thanks guys

reservered.
May take a while to actually be on dropbox, so please be patient
This was a rushed job. Please report any issues and I will do the best I can to sort them out for you. Please don't make any demands or tell me I have broken your phone or what ever. This is a developer forums, this is a place where people can come to share their work.

Hi man you are as rock as your name!
P.S. I've seen you in Galaxy S Android Development before!

First of all, many thanks for this
Now for the noob questions
Can I flash this over the top of say Pandorium then use JKAY from the market or will I have to wait for one of the excellent ROM guys to make a JKAY compatible build ?

Thanks for this
Quick question though; what are these 'lte settings apks' that you speak of?

Ok, had some problems and need your help.
Im on xxelkc ausdim port.
First i booted into cwm and tried to flash the framework, but everytime cwm said that it cant find /system/build.prop
After serveral tries, i realized that i had to mount /system manually. Then it worked without problems.
Then i downloaded the deluxe settings from the play store and installed it. But when i run the apk, i tells me that no compatible framework is found. At the about screen it shows me:
Deluxe settings 14.4
Framework 14.3
SystemUI ?
ExtVersion ?
Android Policy ?
Can someone tell what i have to do to make it work?

Ok, i found out that the updater-script doesnt copy any of the files. After copying them manually in the right folder, everything worked well...
So the updater-script needs to be rewritten and with a mount /system command at the beginning.

Yes, you should be able to flash this over the top of Pandorium if you are using the latest XXELKC version. And yes the Jkay Settings app on the market from 14.3 upwards. I think there is only 14.3 and 14.3.1? No earlier versions will work for this framework.
I have noted that there is an issue with the Settings app not detecting the framework and it says you must be running Jkay framework. I was reading a few posts in Jkays thread and this does lead me to believe that there are still bugs in the alpha framework....hence it's alpha status.If you get this fault the XDA member mentioned that he just applied some of the settings anyway and then rebooted his phone and everything appeared as normal after a reboot.
Hope this helps

Um there is a mount command at the start of the script? all that I have changed in my updater script is that it does a grep for the build.prop to ensure that the user flashing this mod is flashing it to an LTE device, as they have a different partition layout to the stock I9300 as we are all aware. I knew that partition 13 is where we locate our system partition but was not aware of what this refers to on the I9300? Meaning that if the ways were reversed I didn't want someone accidently flashing this zip file and bricking or loosing the IMEI number due to corrupted efs directory or something like that.
Other than that, I just pasted my fancy bit of test above it (with no commands affecting it what so ever) and removed the delete command that tells the script to delete Jkay settings if it is in system already located. I assume that this was put in place to ensure that when a new framework was released by Jkay that the correct Deluxe settings app was used with it - or else you get SystemUI status bar crashes until it is removed. I removed it cause like me some users side load their apks and its a pain in the arse to re-add the Jkay settings app into system again .

Umm unless you have attempted to port a ROM your self already then it's really not necessary for you to know. The LTE settings along with a string of different librarys and binary files as well as build prop edits, the jar file edits (described) in order to port non-LTE I9300 ROMs to LTE. If you have a snoop around in /system/app and look at the difference between the two devices you will notice that there are several apks that appear different/are different, among them are the aforementioned LTE settings.

I think you will find that it does work, it's just that it is very buggy and alpha still and sometimes the settings don't stick after a reboot? Anyway it should improve in time. I am not certain if this is an issue with the Jkay Deluxe settings it's self or the framework....either way it is an issue that will still need to be resolved? Keep an eye on the Jkay thread for updates to this?

Sorry for my bad english...
And yes, after putting the files manually in the right folder, its working fine for me... thanks for this :thumbup:

Hey guys,
I have updated the Jkay zip file. I had used the port base android.policy,jar file and this is what is needed to register against the Deluxe Settings app so I have found out. So with that I have reverted the android.policy.jar file to stock Jkays, however I am going to try port back the other way and see if that has any affects?
Is anyone experiencing framework type mismatch error in Deluxe Settings?
I may need to speak to Jkay about this as there maybe something within the framework.jar files that his app is dependent on for I9300 that we have changed or removed for our devices?

JRock... Big ups for creating this thread bro. Its got some great information and a wonderful place for ppl to start. We have some documents to share 're compiling , github, basic sysadmin stuffs etc. Pm me or talk me and id be happy to share ! [email protected]. (Yes the liquidsmooth port is still in works!
Sent from my GT-I9305 using xda premium

I almost tried to to flash the original jkay mod but then did a search on whether it is compatible with the i9305 at all. Glad I found this
Soo, is jkay mod working as intended with our device? I'm reading about issue here but the thread seems a bit deserted... anyways I'm eager to try this out and hope OP will continue to do ports! Thank you very much, good sir!

[MOD][Flashable] Remove all Bloatware apps from system/app Partition within 2 Seconds

What is this?
It's a zip file which can remove bloatware apps(found in system/app partition) from stock recovery. It can remove more than 20 apps within 2-3 seconds.
Why do I need it?
Assume you have flashed a new rom. You now have to go through the pain of removing dozens of apps from system/app which you might not need. eg: some people hardly use google maps/swype/youtube/email/weather.apk or those several samsung apps/widgets found in stock rom.
Okay fine, What else do I need to know
The system partition contains important apps required for android. if you remove an app which is essential for android then your device might get stuck in bootloop. So know what you're doing before trying this mod.
This is a complete list of apps found in stock indian rom(DDLK2).
Code:
AccountAndSyncSettings.apk
AccountAndSyncSettings.odex
AlertRecipients.apk
AlertRecipients.odex
ApplicationsProvider.apk
ApplicationsProvider.odex

What you'll need:
1) Winrar
2) Notepad++
Customizing your "updater-script" file:
1) Download bloatkill.zip from attachment
2) Open it with winrar
3) Browse over to META-INF\com\google\android\
4) Extract the file "updater-script" to desktop and open it with notepad++
5) It will look like this:
ui_print("Useless stuff cleaning start");
ui_print(" ");
ui_print("Partitions mount");
#Properly unmounting to avoid issues
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "umount", "/system");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "umount", "/cache");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "umount", "/data");
#Then mounting
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/system");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/cache");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/data");
ui_print(" ");
ui_print("Useless system app removal");
delete("/system/app/ClockWidget.apk");
delete("/system/app/ClockWidget.odex");
delete("/system/app/DualClock.apk");
delete("/system/app/DualClock.odex");
delete("/system/app/Email.apk");

run_program("/sbin/busybox", "umount", "/system");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "umount", "/cache");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "umount", "/data");
ui_print(" ");
ui_print("Finish");

6) The bold parts are important. As you can see that it deletes a number of apps from system/app in a row. This list is mine(not for you) so you have to edit it according to your liking. Refer through the first list in the beginning of stock apps and select those apps which you would like to delete.
For eg: If you want to delete swype.apk and youtube.apk(meaning swype keyboard and youtube) then replace the above bolded text with these bolded lines and so update-script will look like this:
ui_print("Useless stuff cleaning start");
ui_print(" ");
ui_print("Partitions mount");
#Properly unmounting to avoid issues
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "umount", "/system");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "umount", "/cache");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "umount", "/data");
#Then mounting
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/system");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/cache");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/data");
ui_print(" ");
ui_print("Useless system app removal");
delete("/system/app/Swype.apk");
delete("/system/app/YouTube.apk");
ui_print(" ");
ui_print("Unmounting partitions");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "umount", "/system");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "umount", "/cache");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "umount", "/data");
ui_print(" ");
ui_print("Finish");

7) Once you have finished editing delete rows in updater-script to your liking then hit save button(ctlr+s) on notepad++
8) Drag drop your custom "updater-script" file back inside META-INF\com\google\android\ folder in bloatkill.zip. Do not touch update-binary.
9) Winrar will automatically save the archive as soon as you do drag drop
10) Your custom bloatkill.zip is ready. You can use this everytime you flash your ddlk2 stock rom
Instruction of use:
1) Place your custom bloatkill.zip on root of sd card (root means outside; not within any folder of sd card)
3) Switch off you android device
4) Start your device in recovery mode by holding all three keys at once(up volume + middle menu + power key)
5) Select "apply zip from sd card"
6) Select bloatkill.zip
7) Select Yes
8) Reboot

Thanks, I was looking for a quick customizable way to do this.

Nice idea dude

The point of this thread is not give a ready made zip file.
Instead it aims to guide the reader to make his own custom updater-script file.

If you read my post again, i have clearly said that it is just an example.
This list is mine(not for you)
btw, I do personally delete google play. It's because I run another script after bloatkill.zip which installs an updated version of phonesky.apk and GooglePlayservices.apk on the system/app partition. Works okay for me.

It's a guide to create your own custom updater-script file. What part of this english sentence do you not understand?

This look so easy! I will try this method for sure.
Good job, man!

Excellent work... just the ticket... simple, and easy to understand instructions, not like others, and who's developers are somewhat arrogant and would not listen to suggestions...
Cheers
edit:
I'm guessing it will work on all Samsung Android phones including Note 2 and Galaxy Ace 2 ?

Don't mind the haters man. Thank you for taking the time to post this, I'll be putting it to good use :good:
One question though, if I needed to use a stock recovery to flash this would it not have to be named "update.zip"?

i think you got a wrong point here.
nobody haters here
everyone that had more experience in xda always reminding anybody if they post in wrong section.
as far i know,modifying updater script better go to general,cause it's more like a guide,and i think almost all devs in devs section already know that
and,using recovery?
you can use any name for the zip,as long the file in root of sdcard,android normal recovery will recognize that.
i think you shouldn't namet that update.zip and choose 'apply update.zip',cause i dunno if any side effect
just play safe

+1 on that, i or maybe others dev is expecting something more then this simple scripting, coz he is the linux expert...a linux expert show his simple script? Is he really an expert in linux? Or can he use android sdk? See all his thread, his showing us a simple mod and trick...and when we comment its simple he just get explode

LESSON #99: never ask for ETA's or the mod-wannabe-guy will report it

Whether it's considered advanced development or not isn't important really. The content of this how-to is obviously meant for begginers and I think he successfully achieved that mark. It probably is in the wrong section but the folks at XDA deemed it a news worthy post. That's the only reason I found it anyway.
