Aroma, Edify, updater script Question and Answer thread.

This thread is intended for those of you who are currently creating updater scripts or using Aroma and need some help with your scripts. Be it syntax errors, or things just not working properly. Here you can post your script and get some quick-time help to get your work up and running. I have notified Amarullz, the creator of Aroma, and he will be dropping by here as well to help guide you on your way.
The reason I created this thread is to not clutter up the original Aroma thread will questions on Syntax errors. There were enough posts in there that I felt a dedicated thread was justified.

Original Aroma Thread:
[MOD][2.00] AROMA Installer :: 120425-020 :: Open Source​
List of stuff pasted from the original Aroma thread, thanks to Amarullz​
Prop File FormatThe prop file format was simple plain text format with (=) token as delimiter between key and values, and newline as delimiter between one key=values with another key=values.
Code:
key1=value1
key2=value2
key_3=value3
last.name=amarullz
It can be easily accessed with file_getprop in updater-script like this:
Code:
file_getprop("example.prop","key1");
With above code, the file_getprop function will return the value of key1, it will returned "value1". We can use it for our needs in if/if else statement. We can use others characters in keys, like dot (.) and underscore, but please be careful, that you don't add some quotes in the values. Here the wrong prop file format:
Code:
key1="value1" [COLOR="Red"]# add quotes[/COLOR]
key2="value2" [COLOR="Red"]# add quotes[/COLOR]
first name=james [COLOR="Red"]# Key name with space[/COLOR]
AROMA Installer Default Prop Temporary Locations
When playing with AROMA Installer aroma-config files, almost all things that manipulated prop files will be saved relatively on AROMA temporary directory located in /tmp/aroma-data/, so if we pass the prop filename like this: writetmpfile("test.prop","key1=ok");, the test.prop will be located at /tmp/aroma-data/test.prop.
Quick Example
In this example case, the aroma-config will create temporary prop file that will be readed by updater-script:
aroma-config:
Code:
writetmpfile(
"kernel.prop",
"snq =yes\n"+
"call.2way=no\n"
);
updater-script:
Code:
if
file_getprop("/tmp/aroma-data/kernel.prop","snq") == "yes"
then
# Install Kernel
write_raw_image("/tmp/boot.img", "boot");
endif;
if
file_getprop("/tmp/aroma-data/kernel.prop","call.2way") == "yes"
then
# Do Something here
else
# Do Something here
endif;
With this feature, it's enough to archive customizable installation, and the aroma-config will be able to communicate with updater-script.​
EDIFY SCRIPT
Edify Script was simple script sintax to configure the behavior of binaries executable. In AROMA Installer, there is 2 edify script in the META-INF/com/google/android folder. The aroma-config and updater-script. Both files has it own use, and accessed by different binary executable, but use the same sintax, It's called edify.
The aroma-config used to configuring the UI in AROMA Installer, it will accessed directly by AROMA Binary Executable ( update-binary ), and updater-script will be used to configuring commands for installations (extract files, create symlinks, change permissions, format, mount, etc), and will be accessed directly by update-binary-installer. This couple script use the same sintax but have different functions that can be used.​Basic Edify SintaxEdify Script was function base script, similar to C language, but without any supported statement except if else. You also can't create function, only bundled functions available for the script. All commands will call functions name with some arguments, and ends by semicolon, like this:
Code:
function_name( argument1, argument2, argument3 );
Edify also supporting simple concat-ing string, just like some other languages like Javascript or Java. Using plus (+).
Code:
function_name("Concat this " + "Strings" + " as one argument");
All Edify function's arguments was in type string. Edify doesn't support others data type, however, we can insert some integer values into arguments, but it in the fact it will be treated as string.
Code:
function_name( 50, 20, "55" );
We can't do any math calculation in edify script, so the script below is invalid:
Code:
function_name( 50 + 50 );
If you use the string with plus operator, it will only concat the strings just like the 2nd example:
Code:
function_name( "50" + "50" ); [COLOR="Green"]# Result = "5050"[/COLOR]
For commenting the code, we can use the sign character (#), only line comment was supported, just like an unix shell comment sintax:
Code:
[B]# This is comments[/B]
function_name("Lorem ipsum dolore…");
Code writing isn't strict, so we can safely use space or new line between function and arguments:
Code:
function_name(
"First Argument",
getvar("config"),
"Third Argument"
);
The functions in Edify Script can returned values. But just like an arguments, it's only supported string type data. The good thing is this String can be converted into Boolean for conditions need. The string with contents will have true Boolean, and the empty string will have false Boolean.
"" = false
"1" = true
"yes" = true
"no" = true
"0" = true
Control StructuresEdify only supported limited control structure. Only if, and if else supported. But this control structures is enough to make an interactive installer. The basic sintax of if structure is:
Code:
if
"comparison"=="comparison"
then
.. commands ..
endif;
And for if else structure is:
Code:
if
"comparison"=="comparison"
then
.. true commands ..
else
.. false commands ..
endif;
We don't have any looping control structure, the Next and Back features in Wizard UI was handled by program automatically.​Comparison & Logical OperatorsEdify script doesn't supporting arithmetic operators, but it supported simple comparison and logical operators, Just like other programming languages base on C (java, php, javascript). It use simple operator sintax:
Code:
# Equal
val1 == val2
# Not Equal
val1 != val2
# Or
val1 || val2
# And
val1 && val2
# Not
!val1
# Logical & Comparison
(val1 == val2)||(val3 != val4)
(val1 == val2)&&(val3 != val4)
!((val1 == val2)&&(val3 != val4))
Yes, it doesn't support less than and greater than comparison, because it's only supported with string and Boolean string only. For Integer comparison use cmp function, but it's only supported in aroma-config script.​String and Escape CharactersFortunately Edify support common string sintax. It's also supported escape characters for newline. The string in Edify defined with double quoted (") and ended with double quoted. Here the basic manipulation of string in Edify:
Code:
# Newline use \n:
"Hi, AROMA Installer is\nAWSOME!!!"
# Concat multiple lines:
"Lorem Ipsum Dolore sit\n"+
"Amet, lorem ipsum dolore\n"+
"sit amet, lorem ipsum\n"+
"dolore sit amet."
# Escape Characters:
"You can add\tTabs, \" Quote, \\ Backslash…"
# Hex Characters:
"It was character A : \x41"
Not Supported Operators in EdifyThere is a lot of operator features in common programming languages that not supported by edify, like assignment operator for inserting something into variable, bitwise operator for manipulating bits within integer, and arithmetic operators for doing simple math calculations.
All this limited has been added via functions (except bitwise), but only available for aroma-config script, and only simple operations supported.​
What UI's AROMA Installer Supported
AROMA Installer had 4 main type of Customizable User Interfaces, the Wizard UI, Dialog UI, Splash UI and Installer UI. And un-customizable Menu UI for selecting About, Help, Tools and Quit Installer.​Wizard UI
The Wizard UI was the main User Interface in AROMA Installer, it's contain Back and Next button in navigation bar just like Computer common Installer programs (Windows Installer, NSIS Install System, InstallShield). Users can navigate trough the screens, or back to previous screens if something not right in configurations. Users can select Typical or Customize installations, and Users can customize what packages to install.
AROMA Installer support many Wizard UI, and here the completed list of it's UI:
checkbox – UI to show checkboxes in groupable list, the selected items will be saved in prop format, and can be accessed with file_getprop.
selectbox – It's like checkbox, but it's only able to check 1 items per group.
textbox – It will show the textbox, you can read text file to show it into the textbox
viewbox – It's like Textbox, but not scrollable, and only supported limited text length
agreebox – It's like Textbox, but with agree checkbox, user can't step to next page if the checkbox not already checked. Useful to show License or Terms of Use Interface.
menubox – This UI will show list of menu to select, there is no Next button, because when User select the item, it will automatically step into next page. And The selected menu will be saved in temporary prop file.
Dialog UIWhile Wizard UI will shown it's interface in Fullscreen, the Dialog UI will shown it's interface in Popup Window, It was useful for some needs, like show confirmation for "Are You Sure want to format the partitions?", or show Alert Dialog for "Thanks for using my ROM". Here the complete list of Dialog UI in AROMA Installer:
alert – Show popup dialog, with limited text length and Only the OK button.
confirm – Show popup dialog, with limited text length and contains 2 customizable Button "Yes" and "No", with return value true for "Yes" and false for "No".
textdialog – Show scrollable text popup dialog, with long text length support and Only OK Button.
Splash UIThis UI Simply show the Splash Screen from png files with custom delay before it show next page. The image will automatically position in center of screen depended from it's image size. The background will be blended in blur and darkest color.​Installer UIWhen configuration invoke the install UI, it will start an installation, and show the installer UI with description text on top window, textbox for installer information in middle, and progress text and bar in bottom of screen. The installation will not cancelable, and there is no buttons or menu to select before installation finished, The Next and Save Logs button will be shown after installation finished. And next Wizard UI can't do Back command beyond this installer UI, so the Installer UI will only shown once time only in flash process.​
What Functions AROMA Installer SupportedThere is so many functions that you can used for your needs, The available functions was the common functions that may be usable for installations, but not supported very complex things.

!”#$%&’()*+,-./0123456789:;<=>[email protected] JKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ[\]^_`abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz{|}~©
In the first row picture, there is pixel to seperate one letter to next letter, because AROMA Installer didn't use fixed size fonts ( console fonts like courier ). The fonts will rendering from 2nd row into end of rows. Here the example:
NOTE: AROMA Installer only need alpha channel for this, the color of fonts will using the AROMA color scheme defined in aroma-config. The width separator (in first row pixel) should be full opaque (alpha=100% or 255).

Aroma Log/Tmp Puller V1

Common Errors
This post is intended to display the most common errors made while writing a script:
1.
Adding that damn extra comma that we all know you do not need:
Code:
selectbox(
#-- Title
"Main Title",
#-- Sub Title
"Your lovely subtitle:",
#-- Icon: <AROMA Resource Dir>/icons/default.png or <ThemeDir>/icon.default.png
"@default",
#-- Will be saved in /tmp/aroma/mods.prop
"mods.prop",
#----------------[ Selectbox With Groups ]--------------------#
# TITLE | SUBTITLE | Initial Value #
#-------------+------------------------------------+-----------------#
"Words", "", 2, #-- Group 1. key = "selected.1"
"Words", "", 1, #-- selected.1 = 1
"Words", "", 0 #-- selected.1 = 2
);
NO COMMA AFTER THAT LAST '0'​
****************************************************************************************************************************************
****************************************************************************************************************************************
****************************************************************************************************************************************
****************************************************************************************************************************************
2.
End all of your if statements:
Code:
if
something then
if
something then
Do stuff
stuff happens
endif;
endif;
Many nested if statements can be difficult to track, and it is very easy to forget to end them all.
You can go down your list of code to count your if and endif statements.
When I write code and write any ifs, I also write the endif so I do not forget to add it later.
If you get a random syntax error on the LAST LINE of your script, it is usually caused by an expected end statement.​

3.
Selected options are not executed but no error is reported.
aroma-config
Code:
menubox(
#-- Title
"Would you like to rdo stuff?",
#-- Sub Title
"Please Select:",
#-- Icon
"icons/apps",
#-- Will be saved in /tmp/aroma/whatever.prop
"whatever.prop",
#-------------------------+-----------------[ Menubox Items ]-------------------+---------------#
# TITLE | SUBTITLE | Something #
#-------------------------+-----------------------------------------------------------+-----------------#
"Option 1","This will do some stuff",0, #-- selected.0
"Option 2","This will something different",0, #-- selected.0
"Option 4","This will probably explode",0, #-- selected.0
"Option 4!","This option doesn't do sh*t but you can select if you want",1 #-- selected.0
);
Notice #-- selected.0
updater-script
Code:
if prop("whatever.prop","selected.0")=="1" then
#-- Do Option 1
alert(
#-- Title
"This is option 1",
#-- Text
"Option 1, do some stuff."
);
Notice the key is selected.0 also. If these are not matched, nothing will happen, or something else will happen depending on the key specified.
Makes sure your key values in your select boxes, check boxes, menu boxes etc. translate properly to your updater-script.​
Here is a way to find out if you have your keys coded correctly:
Turge said:
if you guys use "adb shell" and verify the contents of the prop file before running the install script (or immediately after moving to the next menu), you can see exactly what to expect and update your aroma/updater-script code accordingly:
Code:
adb shell
cat /tmp/aroma/choice.prop
cat /tmp/aroma/tweaks.prop

4. not really an error
icon usage:
Icons of any size can be supplied. But they will automatically be rendered at 72x72 pixels. ​

and this one

another one???

ok, last one...

First lol
Great thread idea! I know you didn't exactly come up with it but glad someone finally decided to post it...

Thanks for all your efforts. Let me kick the start off, my aroma-config is attached since it is long. I get a syntax error in line 744 which doesn't exist, last line is 740. Before that there was a code but I removed it but still get an error in the same line.

What error does it give you?
EDIT:
Code:
#-- Uninstall button mapping
if prop("cammode-clean.prop","selected")=="1" then
#-- Confirm Demo 1
if
confirm(
#-- Title
"Stock mapping",
#-- Text
"Are you sure that you want to return to stock button mapping?",
#-- Icon (Optional)
"@info"
)=="yes"
then
alert("Result","Done...");
else
alert("Result","Cancelled...");
endif;
Line 668, I think you need another endif here. You have two 'if' but one 'endif'

a great idea for all us newbie's and the blind!
I have a problem I think we my updater script. for some reason, that I can't see, when it gets to the end after installing the kernel I selected it seems to peform an additional extract of another kernels lib files. Could someone take a look and tell me if they can see what I can't!

Did you see my edit?
Besides, I had 740 lines? Either way, a syntax error on the last line means it is expecting an "end" there. That does not mean that the "end" should be at the last line, it means that you left an 'end' off else where that it does not recognize until the script is finished. Thus, it reports syntax error on the last line.

Does it doe this for all kernals, meaning which ever kernal you pick, you get different kernal libs?
Or just the classic kernal?
I ask because for each kernal you pick, you have two options: Kernal and Kernal with SBC.
Furthermore, you have specified a different directory for each option:
opt/kernels/lionfish/sytem/lib/modules
opt/kernels/lionfish_sbc/sytem/lib/modules
Except for classic, you have:
Code:
#Classic
if
file_getprop("/tmp/aroma/mods.prop","selected.2") == "3"
then
ui_print(" -Installing Classic Kernel...");
assert(package_extract_file("opt/kernels/classic/boot.img", "/tmp/boot.img"),
write_raw_image("/tmp/boot.img", "boot"),
delete("/tmp/boot.img"));
package_extract_dir("opt/kernels/classic/sytem/lib/modules", "/system/lib/modules/");

#Classic w/sbc

write_raw_image("/tmp/boot.img", "boot"),
delete("/tmp/boot.img"));
package_extract_dir("opt/kernels/classic/system/lib/modules", "/system/lib/modules/");
endif;
Which both point to opt/kernels/classic/sytem/lib/modules for the libs instead of opt/kernels/classic_sbc/sytem/lib/modules

Thanks for the reply.
I missed that! But actually on complete there seemed to be an additional extract which pulls the lionfish lib file, no matter which kernel is installed. For both lionfish kernel this isn't a problem as they use the same modules I'm guessing.
I pulled the log and this is what happens after installation complete

Ok this seems to be very good thread
How to obtain screen calibration data and fix it in aroma-config?
For few phones calibration takes lots of time, so how to collect that data and define it in aroma config to avoid irritating calibration every time you flash the zip?

If you look in the aroma-config near the top it tells you what to do
##
# Calibrate Touchscreen
#
# For other device, run the installer, then press "menu"
# and select Calibrating Tools. Follow Instructions, and make
# sure the touch screen has been valid in the testing step.
#
# In the end, there will be alert dialog with calibration data
# ( green ), replace this calibrate() function with that data.

Once you done this record the calibration number and add it below this text unquoted in the aroma-config. You can see my calibration above

Yes correct.. And please dont include calibration proccess for user, it was annoyed, user only will think the installer was suck. I found that in some rom before, ask user to calibrate the touch screen before starting installation proccess.

Hi,
My below question is for updater-script:
Can I put one function within another?
For instance: ui_print(file_getprop("/tmp/aroma-data/install.prop","selected.0"));​
I have tried this, and it returns nothing and it doesn't give me syntax error.
I know it is possible for aroma-config.
Thanks in advance!

Creation flashable zip sys-part CM10

Hi the crazy flash,
I open this topic for help creating a fix
CM10 ROM is Divided into 2 parts and some of the applications are installed on the / data partition due to Lack of space for full Jellybean installation.
Hence you will Have to reflash the rom you factory reset or Effective wipe / data partition.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
After a restart install CM10 patch to system/app did not effect ?§!
Here is the solution I use busybox to inject App
I take this opportunity to fix some permission
If you have time of need flashable zip of this topic and for you!
Kernel or gapps or questions to ask permission
FixSysPartCM10
Code:
assert(getprop("ro.product.device") == "galaxysl" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "galaxysl" ||
getprop("ro.product.device") == "GT-I9003" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "GT-I9003");

set_perm_recursive(0, 0, 0755, 0644, "/data/app");
unmount("system");
run_program("/sbin/reboot");
instruction
Open zip with winrar
Add your app in \data\sys-parts\app
Create other folder in the system if time of need
Made you happy to share your patch and help the community
Enjoy...

my rom do not need this fix

Worked perfectly for me! Thanks

This is needed because CM10 with gapps does not fit our NAND aka ROM size.
Hence, the system apps are pushed into /data/sys-apps so that the entire ROM can work properly.. else full /system of jellybean does not fit on our small partition.

I understand. Cm7 is better than froyo in some development cases. Especially in this.
I wish to make aroma for my ROM (2.2). But as froyo can't be installed fully through cwm it's useless.

Would you pls write a few lines on what it actually does...In the actual thread it is too much of info to consume. Is it only for ROM devs? Is my phone going to explode if I try to install this on my own, being a layman? :silly:

Check screens in original thread.
You can choose whatever you want. For example in roms you can choose which kernel to install. Or which tweaks you want to. Or apps.
It's a thing that offer you to customise like you want. It' very comfortatble. For e.g. how can i use it in my rom:
1. You can choose between g3mod of fugu
2. You can choose between Memo or Tasks
3. You can choose between stock music player and miui.
And much more.

Thanks Mohanshbhr & sad...Got the point...Things look easier now...:good:

Should make rom customisation a lot easier.

So Lets Start your journey now!
1.) SETTING UP
Download this zip
n extract it in the folder where your ROM or Mod is present
So that it will look like this--
{
"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"
}
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
2.) BASIC EDITING
Now lets start, Go to this directory- META-INF\com\google\android\
We are interested in editing "aroma-config" n "updater-script" only
First of all open aroma-config in NotePad++
You will be able to see a window like this--
A. SETTING UP SCREEN RESOLUTION
Now the very first thing we are going to do is to declare our screen resolution for the AROMA Installer
Remove the "# " from the front of the line according to your screen resolution
For Example my device is 320x480, so this is for me--
Code:
# ini_set("dp","1"); #-- LDPI ( 240x320 / QVGA )
ini_set("dp","2"); #-- MDPI ( 320x480 / HVGA )
# ini_set("dp","3"); #-- HDPI ( 480x800 / WVGA )
# ini_set("dp","4"); #-- XHDPI ( 1280x720 / WVGA )
# ini_set("dp","5"); #-- XXHDPI ( 1920x1080 / WVGA )
Optional- You may remove the other unused strings from the above code
-> NOW YOU HAVE SUCCESSFULLY DECLARED YOUR SCREEN RESOLUTION, WHICH CAN BE INTERPRETED BY THE INSTALLER!
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
B. SETTING UP BASIC DETAILS
The next thing we are going to declare is our ROM/Mod name, date, device name and version
You will be able to find this code inside your aroma-config
Code:
ini_set("rom_name", "YOUR ROM NAME HERE™ ");
ini_set("rom_version", "YOUR VERSION");
ini_set("rom_author", "YOUR NAME");
ini_set("rom_device", "YOUR DEVICE NAME");
ini_set("rom_date", "25/8/2013 - DATE OF YOUR MOD");
Edit it according to your ROM/Mod detail, Fill the respective details inside the above " ");
-> NOW YOU HAVE SUCCESSFULLY DECLARED YOUR ROM/MOD NAME N OTHER RELEVANT DETAILS
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
C. SHOWING A DISPLAY IMAGE
Now to make our Installer beautiful we will add a png image which will be displayed when a user will start the installer
You will be able to find this code inside your aroma-config
Code:
# Show Simple Splash
#
splash(
#-- Duration 5000ms / 5 seconds
5000,
#-- <AROMA Resource Dir>/SPLASH.png
"SPLASH"
);
This will display SPLASH.png for 5 seconds, you can edit the no of seconds the image should be displayed
Edit 5000 to the no the seconds you want
For 1 Second- 1000
2 Seconds- 2000
n so on
The image to be displayed is located in the folder- META-INF\com\google\android\aroma
Here you can find the SPLASH.png , replace it with yours, remember that it should be of the same resolution as that of your device
also it must be of .png format only
-> NOW YOU HAVE SUCCESSFULLY ADDED A DISPLAY IMAGE FOR YOUR AROMA INSTALLER MOD
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
D. SHOWING ANIMATION AS AFTER DISPLAY IMAGE (Optional)
You can also add an animation to your AROMA Installer package
You will be able to find this code inside your aroma-config
Code:
##
# Show Animated Splash
#
anisplash(
# #-- Number of Loop
4,
#-- Frame [ Image, duration in millisecond ]
"anim/a1", 30,
"anim/a2", 30,
"anim/a3", 30,
"anim/a4", 30,
"anim/a5", 30,
"anim/a6", 30
);
Here png a1 to a6 will be displayed for 30 millisecond each for 4 times (number of loop is 4)
You can also edit Number of Loop to any desired number
Here it is 4, edit as per your desire
The images which will be displayed are in META-INF\com\google\android\aroma\anim folder
Replace the pngs with your pngs
NOTE: If you dont want animated splash, delete the above code from your aroma-config
-> NOW YOU HAVE SUCCESSFULLY CREATED THE ANIMATION TO BE DISPLAYED BEFORE INSTALLER STARTS
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
E. FONT SELECTION CODE (No need to edit)
This CODE is for language selection dialogue in the installer
Code:
##
# Font Selection
#
endif;
This will look like below in AROMA Installer
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
F. WINDOW FOR SELECTING THE INSTALLER THEME
Now we will create a window to Select theme to be used while installation of the ROM/Mod
Scroll n find this code in aroma-config
Code:
##
# SELECT THEME
#
selectbox(
#-- Title
"<~themes.title>",
#-- Sub Title
"<~themes.desc>",
#-- Icon:
"@personalize",
#-- Will be saved in /tmp/aroma/theme.prop
"theme.prop",
"Generic", "Unthemed AROMA Installer", 0, #-- selected.0 = 1
"MIUI Theme", "MIUI Theme by mickey-r & amarullz", 0, #-- selected.0 = 2
"NXT Theme", "NXT Theme by Pranav Pandey", 0, #-- selected.0 = 3
"NextGen Theme", "NextGen Theme by amarullz edit by Ayush", 0, #-- selected.0 = 4
"Sense Theme", "HTC Sense Theme by amarullz", 0, #-- selected.0 = 5
"Honami Theme", "Xperia i1 Theme by Ayush", 1 #-- selected.0 = 6
);
The type of window used is of selectbox attribute, Which means that only one out of the above Themes can be selected at a time
Here theme.prop is the temporary file in which user selection will be stored
Here Honami Theme has initial value 1 which means that It is selected by default,
(1 stands for Selected n 0 stands for Unselected)
NOTE: The last string has no comma "," after its initial value, Its not a typo
The above themes are already included in the package, you can find the stored themes in the directory- META-INF\com\google\android\aroma\themes
and also edit them as per your desire, edit them only if you have knowledge of .png n .9.png editing
otherwise included themes are perfect according to me
Now scroll n find this CODE in aroma-config
Code:
##
# SET THEME
#
if prop("theme.prop","selected.0")=="2" then
theme("miui");
endif;
if prop("theme.prop","selected.0")=="3" then
theme("xNXT");
endif;
if prop("theme.prop","selected.0")=="4" then
theme("NextGen");
endif;
if prop("theme.prop","selected.0")=="5" then
theme("sense");
endif;
if prop("theme.prop","selected.0")=="6" then
theme("i1");
endif;
No need to edit this, it is already perfect, it declares the Theme selection
This is how it looks like in AROMA Installer
-> NOW YOU HAVE SUCCESSFULLY CREATED A WINDOW TO SHOW AVAILABLE THEME SELECTIONS
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
G. SHOW BASIC INFORMATION
Now we will create a window to display the ROM/Mod information before installation
Scroll n find this code-
Code:
##
# SHOW ROM/Mod INFORMATION
#
viewbox(
#-- Title
"<~welcome.title>",
#-- Text
"<~welcome.text1> <b>"+
#-- Get Config Value
ini_get("rom_name")+
"</b> <~common.for> <b>"+ini_get("rom_device")+"</b>.\n\n"+
"<~welcome.text2>\n\n"+
" <~welcome.version>\t: <b><#selectbg_g>"+ini_get("rom_version")+"</#></b>\n"+
" <~welcome.codename>\t\t: <b><#selectbg_g> </#></b>\n"+
" <~welcome.updated>\t: <b><#selectbg_g>"+ini_get("rom_date")+"</#></b>\n\n\n"+
"<~welcome.next>",
#-- Icon
"@welcome"
);
No need to edit this code, It is already perfect
Here the window is of viewbox attribute, we have just the back and next button in the window
This is how it will look in the installer
-> NOW YOU HAVE SUCCESSFULLY CREATED A WINDOW TO DISPLAY ROM/MOD INFORMATION IN THE INSTALLER
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
H. LICENSE WINDOW (Optional)
Now we will create a window for displaying License/Terms n Conditions of using the ROM/Mod
Scroll n find this Code-
Code:
##
# LICENSE

agreebox(
#-- Title
"YOUR ROM/Mod NAME™ T&C",
#-- Subtitle / Description
"Read Carefully",
#-- Icon:
"@license",
#-- Text Content
resread("license.txt"),
#-- Checkbox Text
"Do you agree??",
#-- Unchecked Alert Message
"You've to agree!!"
);
Edit the title "YOUR ROM/Mod NAME™ T&C", to your ROM/Mod name
The license which is displayed is stored in directory- META-INF\com\google\android\aroma
You can edit the license.txt as per your ROM/Mod needs
If you don't want the license window delete the above code
This is how it will look in the installer
-> NOW YOU HAVE SUCCESSFULLY CREATED A WINDOW WHICH WILL DISPLAY LICENSE
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I. CREATING MAIN MENU
Now we will create a window for menu of options available in our ROM/Mod
Scroll and find this code-
Code:
##
# MAIN MENU- INSTALLER n MISC
#
menubox(
#-- Title
"ROM/MOD NAME™ Menu",
#-- Sub Title
"Please select from the Menu Below to Modify the required features",
#-- Icon
"@apps",
#-- Will be saved in /tmp/aroma/menu.prop
"menu.prop",
#-------------------------+-----------------[ Menubox Items ]-------------------------+---------------#
# TITLE | SUBTITLE | Item Icons #
#-------------------------+-----------------------------------------------------------+---------------#
"Custom Installation", "ROM Installation with Various Features", "@install", #-- selected = 1
"System Info", "Get and show device/partition informations", "@info", #-- selected = 2
"ChangeLog", "ROM/Mod ChangeLog", "@agreement", #-- selected = 3
"Quit Install", "Leave Setup :(", "@install" #-- selected = 4
);
Edit the title above as per your ROM/Mod name
The selection made by user in the above window will be stored in a temporary file- menu.prop
I have added only 4 options in the menu which I Recommend, You may remove any of the above string only if you have proper knowledge
This is how it looks in Installer-
-> NOW YOU HAVE SUCCESSFULLY CREATED THE MAIN MENU OF YOUR INSTALLER
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I.1-> The first option is for Installer sub window, we will create it later
I.2-> the second option is for Displaying system information,
I.3-> the third option is for Displaying Changelog of Mod/ROM,
I.4-> the fourth option is for Exiting the installer
I.2- SYSTEM INFORMATION
Now lets create the sub window for Displaying system information
Scroll down n find this code in aroma-config-
Code:
##
# System Info
#
if prop("menu.prop","selected")=="2" then
#-- Show Please Wait
pleasewait("Getting System Information...");
#-- Fetch System Information
setvar(
#-- Variable Name
"sysinfo",
#-- Variable Value
"<@center><b>Your Device System Information</b></@>\n\n"+
"Device Name\t\t: <#469>YOUR DEVICE NAME</#>\n"+
"Board Name\t\t: <#469>YOUR MODEL NAME</#>\n"+
"Manufacturer\t\t: <#469>YOUR MANUFACTURER</#>\n"+
"\n"+
"System Size\t\t: <b><#selectbg_g>"+getdisksize("/system","m")+" MB</#></b>\n"+
"\tFree\t\t: <b><#selectbg_g>"+getdiskfree("/system","m")+" MB</#></b>\n\n"+
"Data Size\t\t: <b><#selectbg_g>"+getdisksize("/data","m")+" MB</#></b>\n"+
"\tFree\t\t: <b><#selectbg_g>"+getdiskfree("/data","m")+" MB</#></b>\n\n"+
"SDCard Size\t\t: <b><#selectbg_g>"+getdisksize("/sdcard","m")+" MB</#></b>\n"+
"\tFree\t\t: <b><#selectbg_g>"+getdiskfree("/sdcard","m")+" MB</#></b>\n\n"+
""
);
#-- Show Textbox
textbox(
#-- Title
"System Information",
#-- Subtitle
"Current system Information on your Xperia MDPI",
#-- Icon
"@info",
#-- Text
getvar("sysinfo")
);
#-- Show Alert
alert(
#-- Alert Title
"Finished",
#-- Alert Text
"You will be back to Menu",
#-- Alert Icon
"@alert"
);
#-- Back to Menu ( 2 Wizard UI to Back )
back("2");
endif;
Here the command for displaying system information is under this argument
if prop("menu.prop","selected")=="2" then
..
..
endif;
Since this is the second option in menu window, that's why we have =="2" here
Edit these fields as per your requirements
"Device Name\t\t: <#469>YOUR DEVICE NAME</#>\n"+
"Board Name\t\t: <#469>YOUR MODEL NAME</#>\n"+
"Manufacturer\t\t: <#469>YOUR MANUFACTURER</#>\n"+
Rest of the code is fine, no other editing is required
This is how it looks in Installer
-> NOW YOU HAVE SUCCESSFULLY ADDED A WINDOW FOR DISPLAYING SYSTEM INFORMATION
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I.3- DISPLAY CHANGELOG
Now we will create a popup for Displaying changelog of the ROM/Mod
Scroll n find this code in aroma-config
Code:

#-- TextDialog
textdialog(
#-- Title
"YOUR ROM NAME Changelog",
#-- Text
resread("changelog.txt"),
#-- Custom OK Button Text (Optional)
"Close"
);
#-- Back to Menu ( 2 Wizard UI to Back )
back("1");
endif;
Here the command for displaying system information is under this argument
if prop("menu.prop","selected")=="3" then
..
..
endif;
Since this is the third option in menu window, that's why we have =="3" here
Edit the title as per your ROM/Mod name
The changelog file is stored in the directory- META-INF\com\google\android\aroma
Edit changelog.txt as per your ROM/Mod changelog
This is how it looks in Installer
-> NOW YOU HAVE SUCCESSFULLY CREATED A POPUP FOR DISPLAYING CHANGELOG
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I.4- EXIT POPUP
Now we will create a dialogue for exiting the installer
Scroll n find this code in aroma-config
Code:
##
# QUIT INSTALLER
#
if prop("menu.prop","selected")=="4" then
#-- Exit
if
confirm(
#-- Title
"Exit",
#-- Text
"Are you sure want to exit the Installer?",
#-- Icon (Optional)
"@alert"
)=="yes"
then
#-- Exit
exit("");
endif;
endif;
Here the command for displaying system information is under this argument
if prop("menu.prop","selected")=="4" then
..
..
endif;
Since this is the fourth option in menu window, that's why we have =="4" here
This is how it looks in Installer
-> NOW YOU HAVE SUCCESSFULLY CREATED A DIALOGUE BOX FOR EXITING THE INSTALLER
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
CONGRATULATIONS! YOU HAVE CREATED ALL BASIC WINDOWS REGARDING THE INSTALLATION PROCESS!
NOW I WILL TEACH YOU TO CREATE THE ADVANCED INSTALLATION SUB WINDOWS (I.1) IN NEXT POST
Click to expand...
Click to collapse

I.1- CREATING DIFFERENT TYPES OF SUB WINDOWS
Now Lets create a sub window to be displayed when the first option of the Menu is selected in the Installer
Scroll n Find this code
Code:
##
# Select Type of Install
#
if prop("menu.prop","selected")=="1" then
Since this is the first option in menu window, that's why we have =="1" here
I.1.1 SELECT BOX SUB WINDOW
Now Scroll down and find this Code-
Code:
##
# Sub Window 1
#
selectbox(
#-- Title
"TITLE 1",
#-- Sub Title
"SUB TITLE 1",
#-- Icon:
"icons/install",
#-- Will be saved in /tmp/aroma/window1.prop
"window1.prop",
#----------------------------------[ Selectbox With Groups ]-----------------------------------#
# TITLE | SUBTITLE | Initial Value #
#------------------+-----------------------------------------------------------+---------------#
"Select One", "", 2, #-- Group 1. key = "selected.1"
"OPTION 1", "OPTION 1 DESCRIPTION", 0, #-- selected.1 = 1
"OPTION 2", "OPTION 2 DESCRIPTION", 1 #-- selected.1 = 2
#--------[ Initial Value = 0: Unselected, 1: Selected, 2: Group Item, 3: Not Visible ]---------#
);
The type of window used is of selectbox attribute, Which means that only one out of the above Option can be selected at a time
Edit the TITLE, SUBTITLE, OPTION 1 and OPTION 2 as well as their DESCRIPTION as per your requirement
Here OPTION 2 has initial value 1 which means that It is selected by default,
(1 stands for Selected n 0 stands for Unselected)
NOTE: The last string has no comma "," after its initial value, Its not a typo
Method to add new Option--
Add this--
Code:
"OPTION 3", "OPTION 3 DESCRIPTION", 0 #-- selected.1 = 3
Note that if this is your 3rd Option then then in 2nd option add "," after its initial value
So after adding new option this is how it looks on Text Editor
And this is how it looks in Installer
-> SUB WINDOW 1 HAS BEEN SUCCESSFULLY CREATED
So now lets create sub window 2
Now Scroll down and find this Code-
Code:
##
# Sub Window 2
#
selectbox(
#-- Title
"TITLE 2",
#-- Sub Title
"SUB TITLE 2",
#-- Icon:
"@default",
#-- Will be saved in /tmp/aroma/window2.prop
"window2.prop",
#----------------------------------[ Selectbox With Groups ]-----------------------------------#
# TITLE | SUBTITLE | Initial Value #
#------------------+-----------------------------------------------------------+---------------#
"Select One", "", 2, #-- Group 1. key = "selected.1"
"OPTION 1", "OPTION 1 SUBTITLE", 1, #-- selected.1 = 1
"OPTION 2", "OPTION 2 SUBTITLE", 0, #-- selected.1 = 2
"OPTION 3", "OPTION 3 SUBTITLE", 0, #-- selected.1 = 3
"OPTION 4", "OPTION 4 SUBTITLE", 0 #-- selected.1 = 4
#--------[ Initial Value = 0: Unselected, 1: Selected, 2: Group Item, 3: Not Visible ]---------#
);
The type of window used is of selectbox attribute, Which means that only one out of the above Option can be selected at a time
Edit the TITLE, SUBTITLE, OPTIONS as well as their DESCRIPTION as per your requirement
Here OPTION 1 has initial value 1 which means that It is selected by default,
(1 stands for Selected n 0 stands for Unselected)
NOTE: The last string has no comma "," after its initial value, Its not a typo
NOTE: The same method as described above is to be used to create more options
And this is how it looks in Installer
NOTE: If you just want a single sub window, delete the entire code for sub window 2
NOTE: If you want to add a new sub window, add the above code again but edit some values as listed below-
TITLE, SUBTITLE, OPTIONS as well as their DESCRIPTION as per your requirement
Also edit "window2.prop", to "window3.prop",
NOTE: The same method as described above is to be used to create more options
-> SUB WINDOW 2 HAS BEEN SUCCESSFULLY CREATED
NOW I ASSUME THAT YOU HAVE SUCCESSFULLY LEARNT TO CREATE THE SUB WINDOWS of selectbox attribute,
RE READ THE CODE AGAIN TO DEVELOP MORE UNDERSTANDING,
IF THIS IS YOUR FIRST TIME IT MIGHT TAKE SOME TIME TO FIGURE OUT THINGS, BUT ITS NEITHER TOO DIFFICULT
Click to expand...

I.1.2- CREATING CHECKBOX SUB WINDOW
NOW WE SHALL LEARN TO CREATE A CHECKBOX BASED SUB WINDOW FROM WHICH WE CAN SELECT MORE THAN ONE OPTION
Scroll and find this code in aroma-config-
Code:
##
# Sub Window with CheckBoxes
#
checkbox(
# Title
"TITLE OF CHECKBOX",
# Sub Title
"SUB TITLE OF CHECKBOX HERE",
# Icon
"@update",
# Will be saved in /tmp/aroma/checkbox1.prop
"checkbox1.prop",
#----------------------------------[ Selectbox With Groups ]-----------------------------------#
# TITLE | SUBTITLE | Initial Value #
#------------------+-----------------------------------------------------------+---------------#
"AVAILABLE OPTIONS", "", 2, #-- group 1
"I AM A REAL DEV", "IF YOU ARE THE REAL DEVELOPER", 1, #-- item.1.1
"I AM A NOOBS", "IF YOU ARE THE REAL NOOBS", 0, #-- item.1.2
"I AM XDA-DEVELOPERS","IF YOU HAVE AN ACCOUNT IN XDA-DEVELOPERS.COM", 0, #-- item.1.3
"YOUR PROJECTS", "", 2, #-- Group 2
"CUSTOM ROM", "IF YOU MADE A CUSTOM ROM", 1, #-- item.2.1
"CUSTOM TROLL", "IF YOU POST MANY TROLLS IN FORUM", 0 #-- item.2.2
#--------[ Initial Value = 0: Unselected, 1: Selected, 2: Group Item, 3: Not Visible ]---------#
);
The type of window used is of checkbox attribute, Which means that only one out of the above Option can be selected at a time
Edit the TITLE, SUBTITLE, THE OPTIONS VALUE, AND THE OPTIONS' DESCRIPTION as per your requirement
Here item.1.1 and item.2.1 has initial value 1 which means that It is selected by default,
(1 stands for Selected n 0 stands for Unselected)
NOTE: The last string has no comma "," after its initial value, Its not a typo
NOTE: If you want to create a new item add this string
Code:
"CUSTOM TROLL 2", "IF YOU BLAH BLAH", 0 #-- item.2.3
Note that if this is your 3rd item in 2nd Group, so now add "," after item.2.2's initial value
So after adding new option this is how it looks on Text Editor
And this is how it looks in Installer
NOTE: If you dont want a sub window with checkboxes, delete the above code
NOTE: If you want to add a new sub window with checkboxes, add the above code again but edit some values as listed below-
TITLE, SUBTITLE, OPTIONS as well as their DESCRIPTION as per your requirement
Also edit "checkbox1.prop", to "checkbox2.prop",
NOTE: The same method as described above is to be used to create more options
-> SUB WINDOW WITH CHECKBOXES HAS BEEN SUCCESSFULLY CREATED
NOW I ASSUME THAT YOU HAVE SUCCESSFULLY LEARNT TO CREATE THE SUB WINDOWS of checkbox attribute,
RE READ THE CODE AGAIN TO DEVELOP MORE UNDERSTANDING,

This is how it looks in Installer
-> NOW YOU HAVE SUCCESSFULLY CREATED A POPUP ALERT BOX
2. PRE INSTALLATION UI
Now scroll and find this code-
Code:
# Installation UI
ini_set("text_next", "Install Now");
ini_set("icon_next", "@installbutton");
viewbox(
#-- Title
"Ready to Install",
#-- Text
"ROM is ready to be installed.\n\n"+
"Press <b>Install</b> to begin the installation.\n\n"+
"To review or change any of your installation settings, press <b>Back</b>.\n\n"+
"Press Menu -> Quit Installation to quit.",
#-- Icon
"@install"
);
This is to create a window just before installation process starts
If you don't want Pre installation window simply delete the Code above,
This is how it looks in Installer
Now you have successfully learnt to create the above Optional windows n popups
These are the two Optional windows which are frequently used in the Installer to make it more Interactive
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Now scroll and find this code just below the Installation UI Window
Code:
endif;
REMEMER DONT DELETE THE "endif;" It is in the continuation from the above "if prop("menu.prop","selected")=="1" then" code
Now comes the last and Important window for Installer
Scroll and find this code in aroma-config-
Code:
##
# INSTALLATION PROCESS
#
if prop("menu.prop","selected")== "1"
then
ini_set("text_next", "Next");
ini_set("icon_next", "@next");
install(
"YOUR ROM/Mod NAME™ Installation",
getvar("rom_name") + "\n" +
"Please wait while this ROM blows up your device :P" +
"",
"icons/install"
);
ini_set("text_next", "Finish");
ini_set("icon_next", "@finish");
checkviewbox(
#-- Title
"Installation Completed",
#-- Text
"<#selectbg_g><b>Congrats...</b></#>\n\n"+
"<b>"+ini_get("rom_name")+"</b> has been installed into your device.\n\n",
#-- Icon
"@welcome",

"Reboot your device now.",
#-- Initial Checkbox value ( 0=unchecked, 1=checked ) - (Optional, default:0)
"1",
#-- Save checked value in variable "reboot_it" (Optional)
"reboot_it"
);
endif;
###
# Check if reboot checkbox was checked
if
getvar("reboot_it")=="1"
then
#
# reboot("onfinish"); - Reboot if anything finished
# reboot("now"); - Reboot Directly
# reboot("disable"); - If you set reboot("onfinish") before, use this command to revert it.
#
reboot("onfinish");
endif;
This is the code for creating an Installation Progress and logs User Interface and the Reboot Now Option
Edit this string in above code to your ROM/Mod name
"YOUR ROM/Mod NAME™ Installation",
Rest of all the code is fine
This is how it looks like in Installer

NOW YOU HAVE SUCCESSFULLY CREATED THE AROMA-CONFIG FILE FOR INSTALLER
THIS WAS ALL ABOUT CREATING THE AROMA INSTALLER USER INTERFACE...
I HAVE COVERED ALL THE FREQUENTLY USED COMMANDS IN THE TUTORIAL
THANKS TO @amarullz FOR WONDERFUL AROMA INSTALLER
IF ANY DOUBTS/ERRORS POST THEM HERE
IN THE NEXT POST WE ARE GOING TO LEARN ABOUT UPDATER-SCRIPT CORRESPONDING TO THE AROMA-CONFIG
​

Tutorial for updater-script corresponding to the aroma-config
In this tutorial we are going to learn about creating updater script corresponding to the Aroma config we have created
This part is very easy indeed if you have read all my aroma-config guide
So the very first thing you have to do manually is to take a update-binary from any custom rom/mod from your device forum...
You can find update-binary in this directory- meta-inf\com\google\android\
replace it with custom update-binary so that your installer will not give errors while installing the mod/rom
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
1.) understanding the basics
so now lets start, open the updater-script file located in the directory- meta-inf\com\google\android\ in notepad++
scroll and find this code-
Code:
if
file_getprop("/tmp/aroma-data/menu.prop","selected") == "1"
then
so now you know why "menu.prop" was declared there in aroma-config
the == "1" signifies here that the we are now going to define the sub windows inside the first option of menu.prop
now edit this code to your mod/rom name
Code:
ui_print("-> installing rom/mod name");
scroll and find this code-
Code:
ui_print("-> mounting system...");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/system");
this is for mounting the system partition so that you can add/delete files from system partition
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
2.) Defining the sub windows
Now we will define the coding for working of sub menus we created in aroma-config
2.1.) For sub window 1
Scroll and find this code-
Code:
if
file_getprop("/tmp/aroma/window1.prop","selected.1") == "1"
then
ui_print("-> installing option 1...");
package_extract_dir("aroma/window1/option1", "/system");
endif;
edit the ui_print("-> installing option 1..."); string as per your rom/mod option you defined in aroma-config
now place your option 1 customisation app to the folder aroma\window1\option1\app
if it is a framework folder file, place it to aroma\window1\option1\framework folder
now use have successfully defined option1 for the window 1
repeat the same for option 2, and for 3,4.... If you have created them also
now you might have learnt how to define the corresponding options for mods/rom sub window 1 you created in aroma-config
2.2.) For sub window 2
now scroll and find this code-
Code:
if
file_getprop("/tmp/aroma/window2.prop","selected.1") == "1"
then
ui_print("-> installing option 1...");
package_extract_dir("aroma/window2/option1", "/system");
endif;
edit the ui_print("-> installing option 1..."); string as per your rom/mod option you defined in aroma-config
now place your option 1 customisation app to the folder aroma\window1\option2\app
if it is a framework folder file, place it to aroma\window1\option2\framework folder
now use have successfully defined option1 for the window 2
repeat the same for option 2, and for 3,4.... If you have created them also
now you might have learnt how to define the corresponding options for mods/rom sub window 2 you created in aroma-config
2.3.) for check box sub window
scroll and find this code-
Code:
if
file_getprop("/tmp/aroma/checkbox1.prop","item.1.1") == "1"
then
ui_print("-> installing item 1.1 ");
package_extract_dir("aroma/checkbox1/item-1.1", "/system");
endif;
edit the ui_print("-> installing item 1.1 "); string as per your rom/mod option you defined in aroma-config
now place your item 1.1 customisation app to the folder aroma\checkbox1\item-1.1\app
if it is a framework folder file, place it to aroma\checkbox1\item-1.1\framework folder
now use have successfully defined option1 for the check box window
repeat the same for item 1.2, 1.3 and for 2.1, 2.2 too (and also for additional items if you have created them)
now you might have learnt how to define the corresponding items for mods/rom checkbox window you created in aroma-config

3.) Important for rom developers!
Now if you have made this aroma installer for a rom, you have to make aymlinks and fix permissions for your rom binaries
for that open the updater script from any rom from your forum and find the word "symlink" and then copy all the lines to your updater script
if you are not able to find the code, try adding this code to your updater script-
Code:
ui_print("-> making symlinks...");
symlink("toolbox", "/system/bin/start");
symlink("toolbox", "/system/bin/lsmod");
symlink("toolbox", "/system/bin/r");

3.) Fixing permissions for both rom and mod users
now scroll and find this code-
Code:
ui_print("-> fixing permits :p");
package_extract_file("fix_permissions", "/tmp/fix_permissions");
set_perm(0, 0, 0777, "/tmp/fix_permissions");
run_program("/tmp/fix_permissions");
ui_print("-> finished installation...!");
ui_print("-> enjoy...");
ui_print("-> ...");
ui_print("-> done....");
endif;
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "umount", "/system");
show_progress(1, 0);
run_program("/tmp/fix_permissions"); is for fixing the permissions
the endif; present here is in the continuation from file_getprop("/tmp/aroma-data/menu.prop","selected") == "1"
the command run_program("/sbin/busybox", "umount", "/system"); is for unmounting system partition as the installation is complete now

[GUIDE]Aroma Installer on any rom[Easy and simple]

Hello XDA member, i have little guide to add Aroma In your rom, this guide very easy to use, just need little change, and i gave the clues what you can change and can't change
Ok, to the point of the guide
Download the latest AROMA installer from this thread or my edited Aroma installer here
Then follow these little instructions
loadlang("langs/en.lang");
change "langs/en.lang" to change language, see in the aroma folder
theme("sense");
change "sense" to change aroma theme, see in the aroma folder
Added changelog/features
write your rom features or changelog in this files the file is in META-INF\com\android\google\android\aroma\changelog.txt
Little tutorial
Note :
> "xxx" means the words inside this ""
> you can change all xxx words
Option 1 : Option for select devices
> In aroma-config
);
selectbox(
#-- Title
"xxx", > you can change the "xxx" words
#-- Sub Title
"xxx", > you can change the "xxx" words
#-- Icon: <AROMA Resource Dir>/icons/default.png or <ThemeDir>/icon.default.png
"@default",
#-- Will be saved in /tmp/aroma/mods.prop
"system.prop",
"xxx","", 2, > you can change the "xxx" words
"xxx","xxx",1, > you can change the "xxx" words
"xxx","xxx",0, > you can change the "xxx" words
"xxx","xxx",0 > you can change the "xxx" words
#--------[ Initial Value = 0: Unselected, 1: Selected, 2: Group Item, 3: Not Visible ]---------#
);
> In updater-script
# xxx
# xxx
if
file_getprop("/tmp/aroma/system.prop","selected.1") == "1"
then
ui_print("xxx");
package_extract_dir("model/p760", "/system");
endif;
> you can change the "xxx" after "package_extract_dir" words depend on your own,
i use p760, which is the file is located in model/p760 folder,
make sure you put the right position of the file,
example :
i want to put "ducati-m3.bin" file in system/vendor/firmware
then that file should be in model/p760/vendor/firmware (look at the folder)
do the same thing for the rest of it
Option 2 : Option for add or remove apps
You can edit what you to install or remove from your rom, i used "Live Wallpapers" and some apps, you can edit yourself
> In aroma-config
checkbox(
"Install apps", > you can change the "xxx" words
"Uncheck items to remove", > you can change the "xxxx" words
"@default", > you can't change the "xxx" words
"remove.prop", > you can't change the "xxxx" words
"Live Wallpapers","",2, > you can change the "xxx" words
"Basic Dreams","",1, > you can change the "xxx" words
"Cosmic Flow","",1, > you can change the "xxx" words
"Photo Table","",1, > you can change the "xxx" words
"Applications","",2, > you can change the "xxx" words
"Carhome.apk","Carhome",1, > you can change the "xxx" words
"Protips.apk","Pro tips",1, > you can change the "xxx" words
"QuickBoot.apk","Quick Boot",1, > you can change the "xxx" words
);
> In updater-script
For install apps
# xxx > you can change the xxx words
# xxx > you can change the xxx words
if
file_getprop("/tmp/aroma/xxx.prop","selected.1") == "1" > you can change the xxx.prop words
then
ui_print("xxxx"); > you can change the "xxx" words
package_extract_file("camera/GoogleCamera.apk", "/system/app/GoogleCamera.apk");
endif;
> you can change the "xxx" after "package_extract_file" words depend on your own,
i use camera, which is the file is located in camera folder, then name of camera app
then i want to install in system/app folder, do the same thing for the rest of it
For remove apps
# xxx > you can change the xxx words
# xxx > you can change the xxx words
if
file_getprop("/tmp/aroma/remove.prop","item.1.1") == "0"
then
delete("/system/app/CarHome");
endif;
> change this "/system/app/CarHome" depend on what you want to remove, i used CarHome app
do the same thing for the rest of it
Last step : Change Updater script for installing rom
=> Step one : Device initial
Fine these lines
assert(getprop("ro.product.device") == "p760" || getprop("ro.build.product") == "p760" || abort("This package is for \"p760\" devices; this is a \"" + getprop("ro.product.device") + "\"."); );
mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/platform/omap/omap_hsmmc.1/by-name/system", "/system");
package_extract_file("system/bin/backuptool.sh", "/tmp/backuptool.sh");
package_extract_file("system/bin/backuptool.functions", "/tmp/backuptool.functions");
set_perm(0, 0, 0777, "/tmp/backuptool.sh");
set_perm(0, 0, 0644, "/tmp/backuptool.functions");
run_program("/tmp/backuptool.sh", "backup");
unmount("/system");
show_progress(0.200000, 0); >until this
Replace those lines with your updater.scirpt until show_progress line
=> Step Two : Format system
Fine these lines
format("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/platform/omap/omap_hsmmc.1/by-name/system", "0", "/system");
mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/platform/omap/omap_hsmmc.1/by-name/system", "/system");
Replace those lines with your updater.scirpt
=> Step Three : Extracting files and setup symlink
"xxx" means skiping

show_progress(0.600000, 0);
Replace those lines with your updater.scirpt until show_progress line
=> Step Four : Setting permission

Tips and Trick
- For rom under Android 4.4.2 (Kitkar), skip the step 3 and step four,
- After installation, take a log, it's easier if your get installation failed, like status 6, status 7, etc
note : status 0 it's mean working or installation successful

Questions and Answers
Q : Can i use this on my rom ?
A : Yes, this cam be used for any roms
Q : I got error on installation, status 6/7
A : Check your updater.script, there must be something wrong
Q : I've checked it all, look like nothing wrong in updater.script, any idea ?
A : Try another recovery, in some device, aroma didn't work

@Nasheich Xfiles the link to your installer is broken.
