So I'm attempting to create themes for ICBINB with the new tw support on UOT Kitchen, but it seems to keep losing the twframework file everytime. Has anyone else experienced this or even tried it?

Are you talking about it changing the name to framework-res.apk? If so you just rename it back to twframework-res.apk and your good. Just push it to system/framework. Of course that's after you extract it.

I've only been cooking the regular framework-res files, haven't tried a tw file through UOT yet. I've been changing them manually, because there were only a few things I wanted to change
I am so lost with this uot thing. haha. i have been trying for 2 days. I did everything the site said but when I go to recovery and install the zip, nothing happens. I am currenty running the ICBINB rom. If this rom isn't compatible to use the UOT which one is, if any? Or how do I go about changing colors and stuff? I am sorry to post a "noob" question, I really have been trying for days to do it by myself!
Oh forgot to mention, it did change the font. But that is it.
Try manually pushing it to the system instead of flashing it then reboot
dumb question, but what do you mean manually push it? I just want to make sure I do everything right Thanks!

You manually push files by using a root explorer. Copy and paste/overwrite it into the proper folder it's supposed to be into. For instance, pushing an apk would require you to copy it and paste it into /system/app.
oooh! lol so I just take the two framework files and put them on my sd card, then overwrite the ones already therE?
Got it now! Everything is awesome, just didn't change the boot animation, but I can live with that!
Does anyone know how to mod the power off menu like adding reboot recovery and download mode?

Can someone make this into a boot animation with the sound and full instructions? Please and Thanks
Give me a couple of days.
Do you want that "transformers" banner logo in there? I'll make a couple different versions layer on tonight.
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
Ok thank you very much.
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
I would like one with all the gears and things turning without any of the Transformers faces or words in it if that would be okay. Thanks!
I have the first one ready to test. This is exactly as it appears on the video.
To install:
Download the file, or files if you want the audio. Rename the animation file. Depending on the rom you are on, it could be bootanimation.zip or VZW_bootanimation.zip. Extract the mp3 from the android_audio.zip. Find your current boot animation one and rename this one to that exact name. Either rename or move your current boot anim, just in case you don't want this one. Now place the renamed file and the mp3 into the same folder you found the original one in. Again, depending on the rom, this could be in system/media or system/customize/resource.
Let me know how it works out for you guys. I will do a couple more versions of this also.
Works great! It's in landscape but it works good. Could you make one in portrait without all the transformers faces and words? Sorry, I don't mean to sound picky. Thanks a lot! Awesome work.

I'm not sure. You need root permission to write to system, not sure if astro has that. I know es file explorer does. I could make you a flashable zip if you can tell me where it goes in your Rom.

Try es file explorer. They recently added root capabilities. Go to settings towards the bottom and turn on root explorer and mount system as rw. That should let you copy the boot to the right folder.

No such luck. So I have to reflash after I place new bootanimation in appropriate folder?

What do you mean reflash? The entire Rom? No.
Edit. I just reread our conversation. Are you trying to place it in the zip for the Rom that you downloaded? If so, why? Use es file explorer, go to system/customize/resources and place the file in there, not in the zip.

No it is not flashable. You have to move it with a file explorer app. Place the file in /Data/Local, then reboot.

The downloaded file should be bootanimation.zip, once that file is downloaded. Move it to /data/local. Do not extract it. Hope this helps.
Yea so I have two data folders. One on phone (which doesn't have a local folder) and one on my SD that also does not have a local folder.
Got the bootanimation.zip... just don't know precisely where to put it this seems extremely easy and I can't make it work lol

When you open what ever file explorer you use. If it doesn't already start at the root folder on your SD card. Go to it, it should look like this
Then click on Data, then Local folder. Place the bootanimation.zip there. Hope this helps.
very nice! Thanks! will make a few of my friends jealous hehe
You can flash it through clockworkmod as well. Looks pretty.

Can someone show me how to make a flashable zip please? All I wanna do is take some apks I themed and flash them through twrp. I Googled how to do it and the guides give you a template where you just drop your apk in there and flash it but every time I try to flash it it fails.
Can someone maybe show me how to create it from scratch with the update scripts? People post flashable zips all the time on here so I'm sure someone knows how to do it.

If you have the apks all you gotta do is use an app like root explorer and.push the apks manually into the system changing the permissions accordingly. Would be much easier that way

App2zip
Available at the store, and free
Attached is a empty flash zip that will work on our phone the proper folders are in place to add apks to the system apps.
When adding apk to a zip you must create a folder path like system/app then place the apk inside the app folder so you would have a folder in the zip named system then inside that a folder named app inside that the apk or apks if they are system apps. You do not need to set permissions. When zipping the file when done just highlight the folders inside the extracted zip not the whole zip. ie. META-INF and system folder then right click select send to then compressed zip name the zip what ever you want then flash it.

Yeah if you're trying to mod it for a TW rom you have to edit 2 xml files in res/drawable. They are:
stat_sys_battery.xml
stat_sys_battery_charge.xml
You have to change them so they read from 0-100 that way the 100% battery mod actually reads correctly. You'll see right away what needs to be changed. And make sure you have all the png's in the right folder and they are named correctly.
After that recompile and in the folder that was created when you decompiled should be a new folder called Build or something like that, the new apk is in there. Then you have to take the meta-inf folder and androidmanifest.xml from the ORIGINAL apk and copy them into the new one with 7zip or whatever you use. Zipalign and it's ready. Either push it to system/app with ADB or pack it into a flashable zip and have at it.
