Translate?
LINUX
First navigate to StudioAndroid directory.
Then
xgettext -k_ -kN_ -o messages.pot Studio.py
msginit
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
A new file will be created (***.po)
Open that file with PoEdit and translate the right-column
When finished, save it and rename ***.po to Studio.po and put it in StudioAndroid/lang/yourlang_YOURLANG/LC_MESSAGES
afterwards, compile it:
msgfmt Studio.po -o yourlang_YOURLANG/LC_MESSAGES/Studio.mo
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
When I update it, merge the changes using:
xgettext -k_ -kN_ -o messages.pot Studio.py
msgmerge -U Studio.po messages.pot
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
and translate the new strings in PoEdit
The file I need is yourlang_YOURLANG/LC_MESSAGES/Studio.mo, but it's handy for you and me if you also include yourlang_YOURLANG/LC_MESSAGES/Studio.po
WINDOWS
Open lang/LanguageFiles/en_US.po in a text editor
msgid indicates the original string
msgstr indicates the string you need to translate.
So translate the msgstr strings.
Afterwards, send me en_US.po renamed to yourlanguage_YOURCOUNTRY.po
Thanks!
If you cant upload files anywhere, then past the content of SA.po in Pastebin and send me the link
THanks in advance

That would be possible indeed.
I think I am going to investigate a bit in Cygwin to make it compatible.
When using VirtualBox, use Ubuntu 10.04 LTS (64-bit preffered!)

HELP​
What does your script do?
Well, look at the screenshot! And then look at the explanation below.
Update
Check ONLINE for updates!
Utils
Install Utilities
You are now able to install ADB, APKTOOL, AAPT, 7z, (bak)smali and a lot more seperately or together. This makes it easier for you to use them!
Resize pictures
Seems clear enough. It resizes pictures for you, theme conversion is easy!
Now also includes a small manual..
Batch Theme
This places a color layer over an image.
You can theme 1000 images in 4.31 seconds (I timed it).
Please note that if the current color is red and you want purple, you are not gonna add purple to it, but blue!
CopieFrom
It copies images that are in Directory A FROM Directory B.
Example: A contains 1 2 3 4 5, B contains 2 3 5 6 7 9 8
2 3 and 5 get copied over. Handy for theme porting!
Optimize Images
After selecting Extract APK, you can optimize images so they look better.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Develop
Install SDK
Installs the Android Software Development Kit.
You can run Virtual Machines with Android with it, and create APPS.
Install JDK
Installs the Java Development Kit.
You can develop in java and for Android with it.
Prepare Building
A lot of things should be installed before you can build your ROM from source.
This option does that for you, you don't have to do anything yourself again
Build from Source!
You can build a ROM from online sources with it! ALl you need is in it, but for any help you can always PM me!
Build Kernel
BETA!
You can sync the kernel sources with it. THAT'S IT FOR NOW!
Switch BUILD-Mode
Unfortunately, every device has its own sources to build a ROM or Kernel with.
I made this tool to be able to switch from devices
If your device is not (yet) included, then use option "Include".

APK​
Compile APK
The way Android reads the files inside an APK is not the way we do.
Compiling transforms our files into Android files. That's the only way I can explain...
Decompile APK
Undo compile, so we can edit code.
Extract APK
Leave everything intact, but extract. You will not be able to edit anything other then images!
Sign
Every APK needs a signature to verify the Permissions and files in the APK.
This tool does that for you
You can now also choose the Key
Install APK
Install it on your device via USB without a popup.
Zipalign
Aligns the APK. That makes it faster
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Advanced
Baksmali
This allows you to "decompile" the classes.dex file in the APK so you can edit the code of your APK!
Smali
After you edited code, you need to "compile" again. Using this!
De-Odex
WIth system APKs, the smali files are not inside the APK, but outside. Inside an ODEX file.
De-odex includes the files inside the APK, so that it it needs less space
Warning: ODEX apps can be imported in dalvik straight.
DE-ODEXED apps don't. So De-Odexed is a bit slower...

So, I dont need to download the sources when building from source?

The script does it for you.
Further explanation: building from source option actually just syncs the source. I think I even forgot to sync the device and vendor too, I'll check on it.

complete .zip file uploaded with AC and ACI translated. There should be some mistakes but i'll correct them when there will be a new release

Thanks for that

I had an idea: could you add an option in the menu to add manualy a source location ?
When sources are downloaded, where can we found them to edit them ?
And will this script be only for optimus one or for other devices ?

1 there is, use option 1 in the Build menu (Other)
EDIT: whoops, there isn't... I think I'll change to the home directory.
2 you can find them in your Android Central folder /WORKING_DIR_x
x is the number of the option you chose to fetch it.
3 It already is for other devices, use the Other option
Greets!

Updated
###v0.12
[^] Implemented BuildKernel
[^] French translation by KeitG - THANKS!
[^] Some small code improvements. Visual changes to the MAIN MENU

Build kernel is exactly as it says. You can build a kernel from a source.
I included Arjen, Arjen 3.0, thunderVN, Cyanogenmod and stock Android.
But t's still beta!

How to configure
The program is easily to configure.
in your rom you need only a file named update_me.xml in the system folder.
The file must be like this:
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<RomConfig>
<RomName>Name rom</RomName>
<RomVersion>0.1.0</RomVersion>
<RomCheckUrl>http://www.me.com/update_me_ckeck.xml</RomCheckUrl>
<RomElemUrl>http://www.me.com/update_me_parts</RomElemUrl>
<CheckMD5>0</CheckMD5>
<RebootRecovery>0</RebootRecovery>
</RomConfig>
and 2 other file must to be placed online:
- a file with rom info for check new rom availability
- a file with element for rom.
ATTENTION
When the rom is update, the new rom MUST contains a modified update_me.xml with new version,otherwise the app show always the message "new rom available"
an example config is available here
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3681387/config_example.zip
the pack of available icon for tabs can download here
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3681387/icons.zip
in the pack icon named icon_0.png is the number 0 of the config ;D
Supported file host
direct download file host
public folder on dropbox, box.net, etc
goo.im
xdafileserver.nl
androidfilehost.com
How check md5 work
if check md5 is enabled for a file, the program check for a file name with the same name of file plus .md5sum like: app.zip and app.zip.md5sum
with contains md5 plus filename.
if the host is goo.im the md5 is read directly from page

for those that like to add this to their Rom its easy all you do is add the update_me.xml file to your system folder.
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<RomConfig>
<RomName>Name rom</RomName>
<RomVersion>0.1.0</RomVersion>
<RomCheckUrl>http://www.me.com/update_me_ckeck.xml</RomCheckUrl>

<RebootType>1</RebootType><!-- 0 no install,1 install on cwm, 2 install openrecoveryscript -->
<FilterName>transformer</FilterName> <!-- Filter for element,if you don't need not insert-->
</RomConfig>
then the file
update_me_ckeck.xm you edit and add it to your files location

Is there any way to update an existing XDA user account, such as change user e-mail address, or change or add an im'age? I've made several attempts, but haven't been able to find the method for accomplishing this.

THIS DEVDB DISCUSSION ONLY FOR DEVELOPMENT DISCUSSION.
USE Q&A TO ASK ABOUT SCRIPT, HOW TO, AND INSTALLATION​
FOR ROM CHEFS/DEVELOPERS ONLY
ROM Chef/Developers? What is that? ... Here the video.
DON'T ASK ABOUT HOW TO INSTALL IT, BECAUSE IT MEANS YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT IT IS FOR
IT ISN'T AN APPLICATION YOU CAN USE OR INSTALL ON TO YOUR PHONE LIKE ANGRY BIRDS OR FACEBOOK
MOST IMPORTANT THING BEFORE CUSTOMIZING IT
Make sure You took an update-binary from a working ROM, renamed it to update-binary-installer and overwrote the one in my AROMA Installer zip
BACKGROUND
Android has an advanced system for installing the OS and updates, unlike other mobile OS's that distribute the contents of the OS in static ROM image(s), Android distributes the OS and updates in a plain .zip file that contains all of the packages, files, and the updater for processing the installation.
The updater splits in 2 types, the binary (update-binary) and script (updater-script), while the binary is an executable file, and the script was a configuration script that tells the binary executable what to do.
But this advanced technology never expanded into its highest potential ability. The update-binary was simply the linux executable wrote in C that runs in root mode, and can do anything to your system; including accessing the Display FrameBuffer, accessing keys and the touch screen, set vibrate, run programs, parse files, load png(s) and .zip's, and read and write to the filesystem.
The old update-binary only supported a few functions that can controlled only by the updater-script to instal the files. It didn't have a single function that allowed the installer to interact with the user. There is a program called "yesno" that shows a "Yes" or "No" interface, but it wasn't enough to create a more customizable updater.
Now with AROMA Installer update-binary, all of this limitation is gone, and this advanced technology is expanded to the highest level of its pontential.
What is AROMA Installer?
"AROMA" was taken from Bahasa Indonesia (Indonesian Language) and it means "Scent", but it is also an abbreviation of "AMARULLZ ANDROID ROM MANIFESTATION". It is an advanced update-binary for Android that contains many features like Wizard Installation, Touch User Interface (AROMA UI), Customizable Packages, System Inspecting, Themeable, and User Interactive. All release versions will have "flower" codenames, for example, the 1st version is codenamed "Anggrek", which mean "Orchid".
How AROMA Installer Works?
How can it work in recovery mode, and how can it so smooth when it scrolls? It works because I hired Chuck Norris to force the recovery to run the installer, and the phone is too afraid to show any lag .
No, seriously, when the user selects the .zip file to install it, the recovery will extract the update-binary and run it with a few arguments. All processes are handled by the update-binary, and the recovery will only show the information passed by update-binary via a custom pipe. The great thing is that the update-binary can do anything if we can code it in C/C++, but not all people can easily play with C/C++. Its also not very effective or fun to compile it every time we need to change the process. That's why the custom script is used in AROMA Installer, it is simply edify scripting that is used as the normal updater-script, but with expanded functions available.
It wasn't a simple thing to archive something like this, because the update-binary is simply the "linux executable" that doesn't even support dynamic links of libraries, basic drawing functions like drawrect, drawline, and I don't think it OpenGL can be included in it's binary. It runs on it's own. Even User Interface was wrote from scratch to manipulate directly into the display framebuffer, user input was read directly from the raw kernel input device, png and .zip was read with a static link library, and the configuration was parsed in it's own program. It is the result of one full month of developing, but you can learn it instantly, without any need to know how to manage memory usage and pointers.
The AROMA Installer will read, parse, and run the script commands to show it's UI, calculate partition sizes, create, read, and write temporary prop files, set & get variables, do simple integer comparisons and math sequences, do the if else or inline if conditions, configure the UI color scheme, configure rom information, and much more.
Benefits For Users
AROMA Installer gives users the possibility to choose which mods and applications they want to Install on to their device. Sometimes we want the clean install, without bloatware; and sometimes we want the full set of applications on our device. With AROMA Installer, you are your phone's master!
Benefits For Chefs/Developers
AROMA Installer gives chefs many benefits:
You don't ever again have to hear someone ask to remove or include something they like into your ROM, just for you to yell "Hey, that is only your opinion! Only you and some other people like it; most people don't! Go remove the apps on your own with WINRAR, you ^$#&*&#$", remember they are still a customer , and with AROMA Installer, this problem can be solved.
If you are good at customizing the AROMA Installer it was possible to make your ROM compatible with many devices using just one ROM File. You save your time, bandwith and hosting maintanance.
With the great user interface in your ROM installation, users will be very happy with it.
With AROMA Installer, You Are The Greatest ROM Developer

Reading and Learning

Hey Amarullz,
Where are you at with the dynamic/JSON stuff or have you already implemented it?
Also, are you aware of Aroma randomly hanging at 0% when launching aroma-binary-installer? This happens on the HTC One.
Thanks,
Turge

If you need a S4 tester im available right now and can join IRC.

Was I the first one using the bug report feature?

JSON Implementation will be available on new core (because current version doesn't included JSON library).
But for dynamic content, you can use "eval" function to run aroma script from text.
You can create dynamic script using shell, then use eval to run it.
Eval Example:
Code:
eval("alert(\"On Eval Function\",\"This Alert was executed from Eval Function...\", \"@info\");");
Eval Example with shell
alertcode.sh
Code:
#!/bin/sh
echo "alert(\"On Eval Function\",\"This Alert was executed from Eval Function...\", \"@info\");"
aroma-config
Code:
resexec("script/alertcode.sh");
eval(getvar("exec_buffer"));
Eval Example with shell file
alertcode.sh
Code:
#!/bin/sh
echo "alert(\"On Eval Function\",\"This Alert was executed from Eval Function...\", \"@info\");" >> /tmp/test.edify
aroma-config
Code:
eval(read("/tmp/test-edify"));
I didn't test the code, but I hope you understand what I mean.

AROMA Markup String doesn't strict like HTML. In fact it doesn't even save the previous state of formatting (It was linear formatting).
Code like this is valid, and will result very different in html:
Code:
Normal Text <b>Bold Text and <b>Next Bold Text</b> This will not bold.
and the color example (default color is black)
Code:
Black Color <#900>Red Color <#009>Blue Color</#> This is black - not red</#> This second closing was unusable
The closing tag in AMS isn't the pair of opening tag.
Same with font
Code:
Default font <f1>Font ID=1 <f2>Font ID=2 </f> Font ID=0/Default
For fontsize, you don't have any closing tag.
<0> default size
<1> .. <9> font size 1..9.
-------
NOTE: The sintax of image, fontsize and font tag is subject to change. Any suggested syntax is welcome... You can vote syntax below, or suggest your own syntax (easier to use and easier/efficient to parsed will be used).
And If You willing it, please share this vote with your friend...
My Font sintax suggestions:
Code:
1. <f0><f1><f2><f3> - </f> ---> Current
2. <font=0><font=1><font=2><font=3> - </font>
3. <f=1><f=0><f=0> - </f>
My Fontsize sintax suggestions:
Code:
1. <0><1><2>..<9> ---> Current
2. <fontsize=1><fontsize=1><fontsize=2>...<fontsize=9> - </fontsize>
3. <size=1><size=1><size=2>...<size=9> - </size>
4. <sz=1><sz=1><sz=2>...<sz=9> - </sz>
5. <$1><$1><$2>...<$9> - </$>
My Image sintax suggestions (width/height can be in dp or px - if dp/px not defined px will be used):
Code:
1. <[URL;width;height]> <[IMAGE_URL;width]> <[IMAGE_URL;0;height]> ---> Current
2. <img="URL" 40dp,50dp> <img="URL" 40px> <img="URL" 0,50>
3. <img=URL;40dp;50dp> <img=URL;40px> <img=URL;0;50px>
4. <img="URL" w=40dp h=50dp> <img="URL" w=40px> <img="URL" h=50px>
I know that tag with attribute was easier to read by human, but more compact sintax was easier for parser :laugh: .
So please vote for it...

I'm agree with that!

Have an idea to embed LUA - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lua_(programming_language) for more advance AROMA customizing.
And No, Main config Is still edify.
An idea is like this:
aroma-config:
* Show list of menu, select & checkbox
* Show Text box, alert, etc.
* Do simple calculations, run shell script, etc.
* I want to do some programming and custom interface --> lua("luascript.lua");
The lua script will be called from aroma-config. this lua script will containing all useful features like looping, variables, array, functions, etc.
Did I can do it with shell script??, Yes, but you can't communicate & access AROMA features directly (only with stdout).
The lua script (will be usable if it) contains all features that aroma-config already have. Plus custom UI (but you need programming skills),
You can create window, add controls into it, then show it, and manage control message (like, what will it do when some button clicked, or some checkbox checked).
This lua script also usable for you who want to make simple application (not just installer), you can make your own GUI.
Tell me if you like an Idea??

OpenDelta OTA for all phones

Hi i have tested a lot of OTA apps and configs and they are very annoying until i stop thinking for a moment and I find a solution for having true OTAS updates and not depending from other users just like Nexus Devices OTAS.
Ok we started:
First of all we need to download Android Bundle with contains SDK and Eclipse
Here it is:
http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html?hl=sk#download
After it is download and installed.
You are going to download my fixed source for supporting from Android 4.1.2 to 4.4.2.
https://github.com/werty100/OpenDelta
And Click on:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Them open Eclipse...
Go to file/Import:
Next and locate were is the download source
Then Finish...
Wait until it is import....
Go to res folder, values and open config.xml:
Here are the important values for making work your OTA in your phone.
Code:
<!-- Property to read for ROM version -->
<string name="property_version">ro.delta.version</string>
<!-- Property to read for device identifier -->
<string name="property_device">ro.delta.device</string>
This should be put in build.prop:
Ex:
ro.delta.version=1.0.2
ro.delta.device=i9000
You can modificated all values but you should modificate this ones:
Code:
<!-- URL base to find .delta files, %s is expanded to property_device value. Path is suffixed by (expanded) filename_base -->
<string name="url_base_delta">https://delta.omnirom.org/nightlies/%s/</string>
<!-- URL base to find .update and .sign files, %s is expanded to property_device value. Path is suffixed by (expanded) filename_base -->
<string name="url_base_update">http://delta.omnirom.org/nightlies/%s/</string>
<!-- URL base to find the full zip files, %s is expanded to property_device value. Path is suffixed by (expanded) filename_base -->
<string name="url_base_full">http://dl.omnirom.org/%s/</string>
Indicates where to find the ZIP for your phone...
Also you can modificate all UI and values....
After the essentials modifications you will need to compile APK:
Go here and click on selected item..
You will need to create your own KeyStores
Rellenate also this:
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/26870831/rellenate.png
Them just put destination and click finish:
After all of this you have to modificate the Settings.apk of your rom:
Decompile with the script/tool you like more and go to:
In res/values:
String.xml
Add this:
Code:
<string name="system_update_settings_list_item_title">System updates</string>
<string name="system_update_settings_list_item_summary" />
Paste it near baseband_version string kernel_version string etc...
Then go to public and paste this near device_info_settings:
Code:
<public type="string" name="system_update_settings_list_item_title" id="0x7f0c06d7" />
<public type="string" name="system_update_settings_list_item_summary" id="0x7f0c06d8" />
Then go to xml/device_info_settings.xml:
And copy this in the firs lines after:
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<PreferenceScreen android:title="@string/about_settings"
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
Paste this:
Code:
<PreferenceScreen android:title="@string/system_update_settings_list_item_title" android:key="system_update_settings" android:summary="@string/system_update_settings_list_item_summary">
<intent android:action="android.settings.SYSTEM_UPDATE_SETTINGS" />
</PreferenceScreen>
<PreferenceScreen android:title="@string/additional_system_update_settings_list_item_title" android:key="additional_system_update_settings">
<intent android:targetPackage="@string/additional_system_update" android:action="android.intent.action.MAIN" android:targetClass="@string/additional_system_update_menu" />
</PreferenceScreen>
After Compiling Settings.apk you will have full OTAS

Tomorrow More

Update New settings for OTA

Just a quick question:
Code:
[B] <!-- URL base to find .delta files, %s is expanded to property_device value. Path is suffixed by (expanded) filename_base -->
<string name="url_base_delta">https://delta.omnirom.org/nightlies/%s/</string>
<!-- URL base to find .update and .sign files, %s is expanded to property_device value. Path is suffixed by (expanded) filename_base -->
<string name="url_base_update"http://delta.omnirom.org/nightlies/%s/</string>[/B]
<!-- URL base to find the full zip files, %s is expanded to property_device value. Path is suffixed by (expanded) filename_base -->
<string name="url_base_full">http://dl.omnirom.org/%s/</string>
If we want to configure it to our directory, what should we inclue on .delta files & .update and .sing files?

With this OTA guide will I have to boot into recovery to flash a OTA?

You can't use this for any other ROM because we don't know what we should had on .delta & .update & .sign files

Howdy! Some general stuff:
You should credit original developer of OpenDelta (that's Chainfire @ OmniROM)
Proper way to make own, patched version is Pulling the original repository (easiest way is using "Pull" button on GitHub there: https://github.com/omnirom/android_packages_apps_OpenDelta) and then patching it - this way you preserve all the commits history (and credits to original authors)

There we got with an example:
https://delta.omnirom.org/nightlies/i9300/omni-4.4.3-20140605-i9300-NIGHTLY.sign
https://delta.omnirom.org/nightlies/i9300/omni-4.4.3-20140605-i9300-NIGHTLY.update
https://delta.omnirom.org/nightlies/i9300/omni-4.4.3-20140605-i9300-NIGHTLY.delta
.delta file is JSON
.sign is binary signature
.delta is binary delta data
...and
GUESS WHAT! There's an opensource stuff to generate ALL of the above.
Completely! Automagically!

Thanks so much :highfive:
So I just need to modify few things, generate ALL stuff and then upload it to my server right?

Yup. Looks like. I'm not really experienced with OpenDelta but knowing Chainfire it's all easy to work with.

Post for subscription

when it comes to these stuff (git with coding and xml and OH MY GOD!) i am a total noob.
i still don't know how do i generate these files. I understand .zip is the whole ROM, but i have no idea how i can make .update .sign and .delta and what should i put in them and all.
hehe, to me, all i see is three beautiful files here https://github.com/omnirom/android_packages_apps_OpenDelta/tree/android-4.4/server/ which i know nothing about how i can use them to get the files.
i guess i'll wait for the "tomorrow more"

@_MarcoMarinho_ you can find on the github readme how to generate the Delta files.
Server-side
To create the delta files on the server, you need several things, some of which can be found in the server directory. The main thing is the opendelta.sh script. It contains a configuration section which you can edit with the correct file locations on your own system. Quite likely you will need to create a wrapper script that pulls in your previous release and your current release, and pushes out the created delta files.
The script depends on xdelta3, zipadjust and minsignapk.
For the builds on your server, make a copy of the jni directory - do not compile inside jni because you may mess up the build of libopendelta.
xdelta3 can be built in (the copy of) jni/xdelta3-3.0.7 by calling ./configure and make.
zipadjust can be built in (the copy of) jni by calling:
gcc -o zipadjust zipadjust.c zipadjust_run.c -lz
dedelta (not used by the script, but maybe helpful when debugging) can be built in (the copy of) jni by calling:
gcc -o dedelta xdelta3-3.0.7/xdelta3.c delta.c delta_run.c
minsignapk Java source is in the server directory, as well as a prebuilt minsignapk.jar file that should work on most systems.

If you are however to lazy to set up all that stuff check my script on github you can find here:
https://github.com/Myself5/CarbonDelta_server_software/
(I used it for my unofficials and when we tested CarbonDelta (which is based on OpenDelta))
Check the readme on how to install it and use it.

In any folder where you want it. It must not be inside your Roms Sourcecode. To create the delta update and sign files just follow the readme

Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<resources>
<!-- Output some debug strings -->
<item type="bool" name="debug_output">false</item>
<!-- Property to read for ROM version -->
<string name="property_version">ro.euclidean.version</string>
<!-- Property to read for device identifier -->
<string name="property_device">ro.euclidean.device</string>
<!-- %s is expanded to property_version value. .zip, .delta, .update, .sign extensions added when needed -->
<string name="filename_base">euclidean_%s</string>
<!-- Path deltas are stored, relative to sdcard root -->
<string name="path_base">EuclideanDelta</string>
<!-- URL base to find .delta files, %s is expanded to property_device value. Path is suffixed by (expanded) filename_base -->
<string name="url_base_delta">http://euclideanrom.grn.cc/downloads/%s/delta/</string>
<!-- URL base to find .update and .sign files, %s is expanded to property_device value. Path is suffixed by (expanded) filename_base -->
<string name="url_base_update">http://euclideanrom.grn.cc/downloads/%s/delta/</string>
<!-- URL base to find the full zip files, %s is expanded to property_device value. Path is suffixed by (expanded) filename_base -->
<string name="url_base_full">http://euclideanrom.grn.cc/downloads/%s/</string>
This is my setup.
I can't figure it out why I don't receive the updates

Hey guys. I want add support OTA in my builds. I'm fully understand what need to be changed on client side and how generate *.delta and *.update files, but what i need for server side?
Just place files at some path, and somehow mystical way the application will find it.. or need some json script, which protocol need to use, how app retrieve list of files/information from server...
Thanks in advance.

Creating extensions and documentation
Code:
Description -
As extensions are a great adittion to the IDE, whats the use if you cant make your own for automated building?
Information you need to know -
The tool looks for the file "extension.info".
In the extension.info file you will specify the extension name, description and the poison shell script file(.psh).
Package the folder containing the extension as a zip archive
------------------------------------------------------------------
Entension index
------------------------------------------------------------------
Sample extension -
https://github.com/Ricky310711/Poison-Kitchen-Extension-Example
extension.info -
Lines will only be read if starting with "Name", "Description" or "Run"
-------------------- code exmpla
# this sets the extension name
Name:Fake optimizer
# this sets the extension description
Description:Do not apply this to rom, its a fake extension to show an example
# this is the poison script to run(must be in same directory)
Run:FakeOpt.psh
------------------------------------------------------------------
Scripting language(.psh file)
------------------------------------------------------------------
Information
-Must be linux EOL(\n)
-Anything but recognised 1st args are ignored
-Any errors will be ignore by the shell
-Use full paths asif you are in the root(/)
Extracting content to rom
---------- code example
EXTRACT|myFolder
1st arg states we are extracting(copying) a folder to the rom
2nd arg is the folder to extract(must be in same directory as extansion)
NOTE: This will extract the folder to the root of the rom
Changing a line in a file
---------- code example
CHANGE|START|/system/build.prop|ro.product.device=|THIS IS STARTS TEST
1st arg specifies we are changing a file
2nd arg specifies where on a line to search for the string(arg4)
3rd arg specifies the file to change
4th arg specifies the string to look for
5th arg is what you would like to replace the line with
The second arg can be START, CONTAINS or END
Appending a file
---------- code example
APPEND|TOP|/system/build.prop|# A TEST FOR APPENDING TOP
1st arg specifies we are appending a file
2nd arg specifies if we are appending at the TOP or BOTTOM
3rd are is the file to append
4th arg is the content to append

1st arg states we are removing a line from a file
2nd arg specifies the file
3rd arg is the string to look for in the line

dev preview 3 possibly tommorow

Yay now I can at least try to build my own g6 ROMs. Nice work.

development on hold until the 30th as im on holiday, i have been dedicating little time to this as internet here is extremely slow

Magisk and SU support added aswell as deodexing 5.x > 6.0
Also working on disabling signature verification, adding sysrw(as binary)

hi, im trying out the program, it never completes the extraction, and the progress icon starts at 53% do i need to do anything when trying to start the program.
i haVE TRIed running as administartor and without running as admin.
thanks

A dialog will more then likely poppup requesting permission to run imgextractor.exe, be sure to accept that to complete the process

Could you please PM me with pics of the firmware your selecting or even a link?

I've gone ahead and tried this. I pointed the app to my system.img (not the fastboot zip) and ended up with "error extracting". Tool looks promising. ROM is available for download here:
http://en.miui.com/download-333.html
I extracted it and used the images/system.img

Im going to test now, if the firmware has system.transfer.list, and system.dat, it will not be able to be unpacked until i make a native library or extension to perform the operation as i think it would be extremely stupid for the need to have python installed to run.
The only reason i havent rebuilt smali/baksmali etc is 1. Would take me months, 2. we are modifying a system that relies on java to operate.
in future, hefty operations like unpacking etc, will be coded in ASM/C code for faster operation, Im planning on making the whole project open source to allow changes and fixes submitted by other developers, So if anyones interested let me know and ill upload the source code(Written in C# for the .net 4.5 framework)

Found the error, the img file is of a wierd format, as its named system.img, it actually contains files from the root, so within the system.img the the root of the image is actually the root of the device rather then the root of the system partition, its extremely odd but none the less extremely simple to fix
Issue is already fixed and will be included in dev preview 3, that is expected for public release in a day or so with much more additions

Yeah. I found it odd that the system.img had a /system directory in it. Awesome! Can't wait
