UNINSTALL OLD VERSION FIRST:
adb uninstall com.acs.updater
Version 1.3
What is the ACS Updater?
ACS Updater is an app for android devices that allows you to download and install custom roms, kernels, themes, and modems from the internet on the fly. It's very simple to use: run the app, select what you want to install. You will get a screen asking if you want to wipe cache / backup first. Select options, and hit OK. The file will download from the net to /sdcard/ACSDownloads, and when complete, will reboot into recovery and install automatically.
Backup and Restore can also be done via the app, as well as Installing from SD Card, and even Install from URL - put in whatever URL you want, and it will download and install (if you put in a URL to something that isn't a flashable zip, and try to install it, that's your fault.)
In future releases, there will be more goodies, stay tuned!
Notes:
If you choose not to wipe cache, and the flash goes bad, that's on you. It's there as an option, but I'm not going to force it.
If you hit an area (such as Themes), and it says nothing available:
Developer's have not submitted anything for your device
Servers are temporarily down - try again in a couple minutes
Try using the "Reset Wifi Connection" Option
This App depends on a custom -R-E-C-O-V-E-R-Y- KERNEL which includes extendedcommands
It's always a good idea to backup before flashing a new ROM
Developers:
Want your work listed in the app? Simply submit your info to the following links (whichever applies), and I'll get it added to the database.

Submit ROM
Submit Kernel
Submit Theme
Submit System Tweak
Submit (Flashable!) Custom App
ChangeLog:
v1.3
Added Custom apps section
Added Tweaks (Mods) section
Added Reboot Recovery Option
Added Reset Wifi Connection Option
Added the ability to publish to ALL devices!
v1.2: Bugfix
Backup Before install was not working properly - Fixed
v1.1: Initial release
Backup
Restore
Download / Install
Install from SD Card
Install from URL
Wipe Cache
Known Issues:
"Nothing Available at this time" - This appears to be a combination of server issues (the current host may have a limit on how many sql queries can be run at a time....) and possibly http host resolution issues within the app. I have added a bit of code to resolve this, and a "Reset Wifi Connection" option. Use this, wait a moment, then try again
Booting into a blue recovery and not flashing - this is caused by a stock kernel. This app relies on the recovery that is in the kernel, NOT that one you installed (i.e. amonra, clockwork, bonsai, etc)- your kernel MUST have a custom recovery. If you are coming from stock, please flash a kernel before using this app.

How to fix google play services issue in custom modded roms..

Lots of custom roms are there out now and i myself have a custom rom..google play services was launched by google to better communicate updates and notifications of google apps with the users..so if u experienced an error saying 'Google services must be installed' when u recently opened your google + or tried to sign in your youtube account.., you are in the right place..

}
once u click on the option'GET GOOGLE SERVICES', you will be redirected to the playstore and 'gps'(google play services) will be downloaded.
after downloading when u try to install gps it shows an error saying.."Incompatible with other applications using the same user ID'..now your are left stranded ..no gps and no google + or any other apps for that matter..
YOU CAN CHECK YOURSELF IF YOU GOT GPS BY CHECKING WHETHER YOU HAVE THE GREEN G ICON SAYING GOOGLE SETTINGS THERE ON YOU APP DRAWER..IF U DONT HAVE THAT YOU DONT HAVE GPS..
HERE IS THE SOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM..
you are unable to install gps becuase your developer made a modded google apps package for u that cannot be given a gps id by google..so u have to get the stock google apps..
When you deodex a ROM on Kitchen, it removes ALL the .odex files! And deodexing is just basically for theming. Now, I haven't seen any ROM that has themed GApps. So basically, if you want to get your Google Services working, you have to install stock GApps. So, here we go!
first of all do a complete apps+data backup in titanium backup..because all your apps are gonna be missing after the wipe data..
1=> Download the latest GApps from Googles servers. download gapps for ics if u got ics or gapps for Jb if u got jb..
2=> It's a CWM (or stock recovery) flashable package, so don't waste your time unzipping it. Go into Settings > Applications > Manage applications and uninstall the copy of the current Google Play Services that you have installed (if you have any).
3=> Reboot into recovery, and flash CWM recovery (if your kernel has integrated CWM, you don't need to bother).
4=> Select "Install zip from sdcard", and browse to the downloaded GApps zip and flash it.
5=> Make sure to clear your your data in advanced>format data, cache and wipe the Dalvik cache. Reboot.
6=> Open up "Market", accept the EULA and put your phone down.
7=> After 10 minutes or so, go into Application Manager and check if your Market has changed into Play Store.
8=> Go into Play Store and update all your GApps to the latest version. Once done, head over to the YouTube app or google + appp and fire it up.
9=> try signing into youtube also it should work
10=> Now u will be able to see the green google settings icon which shows u got GPS..

Google now for ICS based ROMs (tested on CyanogenMod 9.1 build#9)
The Thread
Requirements:
You must be on Ice Cream Sandwich.
Rooted Device
A deodexed ROM
You should be running a custom recovery like ClockWorkMod Recovery (CWM) or Team Win Recovery Project (TWRP).
You need at least 60MB of system space for the full offline installation. (30MB for online only version) If you don't know how to check, simply download Titanium Backup from the market. It tells you right on the main screen
Download : ​
Google Now Offline Version
Google Now Online Version​
File descriptions:
Online only zip is for those of you who need to save /system space. It removes the offline voice files, so that offline voice dictation does not work. You must always have some sort of data connection for this type of zip.
Offline/Online zip is for those with no /system space restrictions. It contains the full Google Now package with offline voice dictation.
Update zip is for those who already have a version of GN installed. All it does is change your version to the one your choose without having to download a big file. If you are already on an Offline version, it will update you to the Offline version of whichever you choose. Same goes for Online versions and manual installations.
APK only is for those who have already flashed a zip. You may simply push the new apk to /system/app (overwrite or remove the previous version), set permissions to rw-r-r (0644) {ES file Explorer}, and reboot to enjoy the latest version of Google Now. DO NOT TRY TO INSTALL THE APK BY ITSELF.
How to Install:
Move the file you picked in your SD card.
Reboot your device into recovery.
Backup your current ROM.
In CWM, navigate to "Install zip from SD" and select that.
Next, highlight "Choose zip from SD card" and select it.
Select the Google Now zip you loaded onto your SD card, then select it.
Scroll down and select the option that says "Yes - Install Google Now....zip"
Once it has flashed, go back to the main CWM menu and select "Reboot system now".
Launch Google Now by opening your App Drawer and selecting the Google Icon, or by adding the Google Search Widget to your home screen, then doing a normal search.
Go into the settings menu for Google Now and set it up for your Google account and various other settings.
Manual Installation:

Post Installation :
So, you flashed Google Now. You're wondering what you can do with it, right? Well, thankfully, Killer-B has a handy little guide to get you up to speed on all the cool stuff Google Now can do as well as how to do it!
Commands & Now Cards For Google Now!!! Now Video, and custom widget
At this point, I'd suggest looking through your contact list for people with unusual, or difficult to pronounce names. Go into their contact card, and add in a nickname for them of their phonetically spelled name. Google Now has trouble parsing these unusual names, and their isn't a way to make it learn. Spelling the names like they sound allows you to send texts and place calls via Google Now without any voice issues.
Open up the red mic screen and "Do a barrel roll."
Restoring Google Search:
If, for some reason, you want to remove Google Now and return to how you were before, flash the following zip. It removes all Google Now files, and returns the original Google Search app and voice files, as well as sets permissions for the Search app. Make sure to uninstall talkback and then reinstall it once you reboot to get voice search working again.

I have tried it with Elegancia ROM and its work flawlessly other uses may try to test it on other ICS ROMs, thought I cant see anything that would prevent it from working
Beside I used 4EXT recovery also and its ok

Great on Vipers ROM! But consuming much energy !

I'v been using it for like a week and it seems fine , but I think Auto Sync would keep your device awake , so maybe turning it off along with wireless and data connection being off at the same time will save much more energy , though I need more people to test it on different ROMs to be more sure

thanks i will download it

Perfect ;D
Nice Find

Thank you, it is working on my sensation

A few screenshots from upiter707
4PDA Forum

I'm from Purple 26s that was amazing.
I've just upgraded to 28s, but I have a problem: the status bar most of the time became black, and unreadable.
The only way to see it white is pressing home, or swipe left or right from home.

This ROM has all the bloated stock apps removed? Thanks.

No, you have to remove them.
Plus there's a malware somewhere (use Malwarebytes).

We didn't fill the system with tons of features. We think less is more.

Nothing different from any other GSI.
Just a straight flash via fastboot to /system partition and /cache /data wipes.
It may take up to 5 minutes to boot on some devices.
If it takes longer than 5 minutes, just hold your power button and reboot.
Main rings
Background and accent colors throughout the interface can be changed.
Power menu has additions.
Lock screen PIN layout can be scrambled.
Setting suggestions can be disabled.
Sounds and animations use Google Pixel series ones.
App Ops is available.
Little tweaks
Over 80% brightness, the bar will warn you, turning orange.
Lockscreen charging info
The phone will unlock automatically when it recognises your face.
Fingerprint allows 10 scans before denying it as unlocking method.
Night light allows lower temperatures.
Pixel animations to explain some features
App info shows Google Play icon and package names.
Font size steps up by 5%.
Quick settings adjust themselves to the screen.
Preloaded applications
Brave Browser
Open Camera
AnExplorer
Markup
This ROM doesn't include gapps, download them from: https://opengapps.org/
*Remember ARM 9.0
To make the gapps get installed succesfully, you need to flash Stock ROM or LOS, then after the ROM is completely flashed, start it normally, then reboot to bootloader, boot twrp, mount system nad try to install gapps​
This ROM doesn't have problems with Google Certification
About battery backup is fine, but performance is not very good I would rate it with 7.5/10

...wait this is just the standard build?

This is working fine on the XT1920-15 PETTYL (E5 play UK version)
But there are two small issues.
I was sent the "PETTYL" twrp zip as it is nowhere to be found on XDA.
After having to flash the magisk zip in twrp with the james TWRP (as the PETTYL zip doesn't actually work) magisk manager shows magisk is not installed and says I have no internet connection......!
Other problem is system sounds/ringtones are distorted and sound like they are being played by a ZX81 or old 8bit PC!
I know I got to delete or edit something in /system but I'm unsure what or how to do it.
Can anyone help me and suggest a fix please?
