Hi!
I have installed, rooted and unlocked bootloader on my phone with cm10.1. I want to install a custom kernel from a developer.
For example:
"http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2076764"
or
"http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2138478"
Where is the actual .zip file for cwm? where is the downloadable and installable zip from those 2 projects?
Downloading the repository zip seems not to work.

If I have a flashable zip file, like a custom rom. Can I simply extract it with windows zip utility, and then create another archive (zip) again the same way? Are there specific custom settings that I would need to set in order for it to be flashable within clockwork recovery?

So does everyone know you can throw a .zip on the dlpkgfile?(and then of course open it as a zip file) can this be flashed in TWRP afterwards? or is there more modification needed?
In many tutorial i'm seeing some flashable zip files that can be flashed through recovery.
I have just flashed supersu which i'll need always.
But there are apps like xperia walkman & other app which require to flash zip through recovery.
What about removing them completely if i want in future.
Hi,
I have tried developing a Lollipop rom using CM 12, but after the build it didn'd form a .zip file but i have got system.img, userdata.img, ramdisk.img, recovery folder and others. Then later i have created the zip file by creating boot.img, update-script and signed it.
The problem is why it didn't create a zip file and boot.img by itself (I have given the kernel path in boardconfig.mk and I'm using Java 1.7). When I tried to install my rom, it got installed (I used aroma installer) and I was able to see the files copying into the memory, but when I rebooted, "SAMSUNG" image displayed and it started rebooting again and again. Whats the problem and how to correct these.
Someone help me out, so that I can bring out a ROM with the new Lollipop version.
Thank you

Background: Going from Atrix 2 4.0.4 to Slimkat 4.4.4 and the file I was pointed to for Slimkat was com.projectlense.bootmenu.manager-1.apk and I do not know how one uses BMM to install .apk files.
BMM works to install .zip files. Do I have the wrong file for Slimkat 4.4.4 Rom, or what am I missing here? sorry, I'm new to flashing Roms). If you can provide some help, would be much appreciated. Theo

You don't use BMM to install anything other than .zip files. To install an .apk you use a file manager to open the file. After this you should be presented with a dialog asking you to open it with an installer.
To install this you have to have the security setting to allow allow unknown sources.
