===============================================================================
** Folder Structure: ********************************************************
===============================================================================
*/bin Holds the Files needed by the Script
/tmp Temporary Folder for Script
*/roms Folder with Source ROM, Addons and Hacks; modified ROM File
is also placed here
/source Folder for ROM Source (place CMxxx.zip / update.zip here)
/addons Folder for Files which should be added to the ROM ZIP
(files are added to the root of the ZIP, so in almost all
cases you'll nedd at least a "system" Folder)
/hacks Folder for Additional, flashable ZIP files
(for example you can add the flashable google
Apps ZIP in here)

Yes, should work with any CWM ROM for any Phone.
Would be great If you could Test it ;-)

Thanks and this is what i was looking at. I am fed up for removing the apps, whichever i dont want to use and add those apps which i want to use. Started testing but the screen stuck at adding ROM*****name.zip. Waiting to finish!

Hmmm, shouldn't take too long if the ZIP isn't big.
If it remains stuck, pls add "ECHO ON" after line 163 in main.cmd, so you'll see exactly what the Script is doing.

i used android kitchen too it's a really cool tool, but for replace zImage this is simpler and faster, expecially for a newbie

Thx for tool but your image switcher for 64bit and on 32bit ubuntu it raise:
./repack.sh: line 2: ./tools/mkbootfs: cannot execute binary file
./repack.sh: line 11: ./tools/mkbootimg: cannot execute binary file
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I just compiled this files to my 32bit ubuntu from android kitchen and it works fine for me. Or you can do it by your self in root of android kitchen by:
Code:
gcc tools/mkboot/mkbootimg.c tools/mkboot/sha.c -o mkbootimg
gcc tools/mkboot/mkbootfs.c -o mkbootfs
And copy mkbootimg & mkbootfs to zImage_switcher/tools by replacing them.

@rmbq link for zImage switcher is down. May you reupload it again?

i don't have it anymore

Good Work
This is surely an appreciable piece of work but I have only one question:
"The kernel should have swap support to enable swap by default. Am I correct?"
:good:

DOWNLOADS:
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=673368273298971295
PROCEDURE:
WARNING:
DO NOT INSTALL THE APK PROVIDED. SOME PEOPLE REPORTED MISSING BASEBAND AND IMEI.
MAKE A BACKUP OF YOUR PHONE BEFORE YOU PROCEED. DON'T BLAME ME IF ANYTHING GOES WRONG, YO :/
1. Use any File Manager which can do root tasks and go to this location :
Code:
/vendor/app/ims/
and rename the current/original ims.apk to ims.apk.bak or just move the original ims.apk to a different directory, for example, your sd card.
2. Paste the new ims.apk in this location ( /vendor/app/ims/ ) and make sure it has -rw -r -r permissions (0644).
3. Reboot.
Hopefully, now you might have got rid of that annoying notification, yo.

Link updated in OP. :good:

Update
So guys you'll no longer see the `Device is HD Capable` Notification on any of the custom ROMs for athene as this new commit has been pushed to the muppets git (where all our vendor blobs are stored), so if you don't see the Device is HD Capable Notification, doesn't necessarily mean that VoLTE isn't working on your device.
