bad forum

When you don't get replies, don't just say xda is a bad forum.
The forum isn't the "thing" answering, it's the users. .
Anyways, I have an answer for your problem. And I know what exactly you're talking about.
The reason your "tool" shows an error when it compiles the .apk is because you made an error somewhere in the process of editing. This happens frequently, the easiest way to figure out the cause for this error is to check the error log. It shows precisely where the issue is.
I would help you out by making it for you, but there is two reasons I cannot. One - its too late here and I can't get on my PC, and Two - If we do it, you don't learn anything if you're building or cooking roms.
So what I would like you to do is, get a log of the error you're getting and perhaps I, or someone else could help you.
Also you can "bump" up your thread, read the stickies for rules on this. It'll help. Bumping the thread pushes the thread near the top of list so people see it. You already did this. But in a slightly different way.

Alex v5.2 won't install

I have Alex V5.1 already on the phone. I tried to update to the new one and every time I click on the program it says,
"There is no application associated with Alex.v52.etc... Run the application first, then open this file from within the application."
I read through the Alex post and didn't find anything. The search feature on this site seems to give you a thousand post you have to read totally, or nothing. I spent 2 hours last night trying to figure it out and don't have anymore time. I know I'm making a simple noob mistake, but someone PLEASE HELP ME! Thanks!

What is the complete name of the file that you are executing that gives you that message?
Perhaps I forgot to include KaiserCustomRUU.exe with one of my ROMs. You'll need this to install any .NBH file. You can find it in the ROM Tools section of the wiki, which is linked on the wiki or on the sticky.
In the future, please post to an existing thread.
Hope this helps!

I have a very high post response rate in my threads, I'd even dare say 90%+. So no need to worry about lost threads.
As for your current dilemma, I always post my ROMs as .RAR archive files. You'll need to download and install WinRAR (Shareware), 7ZIP (Freeware) or my personal favorite, ZipGenius (Freeware), to uncompress the .RAR file before running KaiserCustomRUU.exe.
All of this can be found on google.
Hope this helps!
Thanks Alex! You are the man! I didn't have to do all of this with the other rom, so I didn't think to look through the wiki. Works great now! Still playing with it, keep up the good work!
Well I guess my meeting took to long and _Alex_ took care of you. I thought it was a RUU or .rar file issue that is why I asked for the specific name of the file.

Can anyone help with Eclipse?

I'm just wanting to change up some font colors and grahics on a rom I have. I was told Eclipse was the way to go, so I set up an Android Dev machine with all the plugins and recommended tools. Now what?
Since no one is willing or able to help, could someone or a Dev be so kind to get me the correct xml file that will change the top title bar fonts to white instead of black. I will put the file in the rom and re-sign it myself.
I am by no means any good at theming, I fail pretty hard, but this might help. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=535630
Also, maybe try posting in the theme forum. Good luck.
There are different xml files for different stuff. Check out colorchange app. It works with cyanogen to change all stuff. Much easier that the xml stuff we used to have to do. Pm me if you have any specific questions.
If you search for colorchange or even posts by me you will find it. When I turn my pc on later I will post a link if required.
Thanks for the info mates (MontAlbert and bcrook). I will check out the colorchange app. One day I will find some write ups on Elclipse and android rom programming. Will let you know how the app worked out, MontAlbert.

You probably want to ask these questions in the Android dev group(s) on Google groups. The digests I get every day indicate there is a lot of activity there.

[Q] How to move on with building android from source?

Hello, first of all, forgive me if I'm in the wrong forum section; I'm sorta new here, and this is my first topic.
Second of all, I'm not an experienced android programmer and I'm also a teenager, so sorry if I sound like a noob; dont expect me to know all that you guys suggest. Also I have some basic experience with Java coding. (sorry if this is all off-topic but just giving a heads-up and letting you know so that you can maybe change your answers a bit so I can understand)
But ANYWAY, what I'm trying to do this for is to eventually port cyanogenmod to my device.
I currently cannot post links because I'm new here; look up "building android from source", and it should say "Getting Started: building android from source" at the fifth link from the top (xda-university).
I'm stuck at "installing repo and syncing".
What url should I put in "URL to android manifest"? (And yes, I am using Terminal in an Ubuntu VM) And now that I think of it, it should be some link of cyanogenmod but my device isn't supported; no repository for my phone. Correct me if I'm wrong. If it helps, my phone is a Samsung Galaxy Admire 4G (SCH-R820).
Again, sorry if I sound like such a noob, it's probably because I am.
Any help is appreciated, thanks!
EDIT: Sorry, just found out I was in the wrong forum section, can someone delete this thread or show me how to do so? thanks...

[Q] HELP - But where did android.policy.jar in Marshmallow ?

Hello everyone,
I recently posted on the forum a call for help that has not received a real answer ... and I'm still looking after a real answer ... ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/help/help-how-to-3-reboot-marshmallow-stock-t3246578 )
After various research I realized that the file android.policy.jar had completely disappeared from the new version of Android : Android Marshmallow
I am convinced that its functions must be found somewhere, but I really don't know where.
So, impossible for me to make my "3-way Reboot" on my Nexus 5.
I'm almost certain, in view of many topics on how to make reboot options, as people here have an answer to that, that's why I allow myself to insist and to open another topic on this issue ... but where is android.policy.jar ???
Does anyone have the answer here is what anyone would want to answer me please? :good:
Thank you in advance for all those who will contribute their knowledge on the subject :laugh:

[Completed] The not-so-much-talked-about rom: Miui (themes, reverts back to default theme)

Hola guys. To all of you. Particularly the ones who are familiar with MIUI. I will just stick to the point. If you ARE familiar with miui then you must have come across those flashy themes. You must also have found out the way to bypass the infamous theme policy WSM tools and Xposed and all. But I recently started taking interest in those flashy themes. You know that once you download a theme from the default Themes app the mtz file starts getting downloaded and as soon as the downloading has finished it gets unpacked into bits (com.android.contacts, com.miui.home, icons, lock_wallpaper, locksreen and so on) and gets copied to the MIUI folder in main storage and again into data/system/theme. This is the first problem. I can't copy the whole mtz file to a safe place because it gets unpacked as soon as it has been downloaded which is basically a zip file containing several other zip files that is, the 'bits' I was talking about. Second thing. the default themes app does not recognize mtz files downloaded from the official miui themes website. It declares them as third party themes. What I did was, took some of those 'bits' and replaced some XML files inside them and some png elements and put them back into data/system/theme. But miui has a way to prevent this from happening. As soon as it detects a modified file present in data/system/theme it reverts back to the default plain theme by deleting all files from data/system/theme. My guess is it keeps checking out verifying in regular intervals the checksums that it must have generated earlier. The same thing happens if I just replace a bit in the mentioned directory with a bit from another theme. So my questions are:
1. Is there a way to preserve the mtz file downloaded from within the default Themes app as a whole mtz file?
2. Can I make changes to just the Themes app so that it would apply any mtz file?
3. Is there a way to prevent miui from continuously checking or verifying the checksums that it has generated? (just a guess but I reckon thats what it actually does) because for an hour or so after replacing or modifying the 'bits' everything works fine but the reverting process takes place in an hour or so.
Thats all folks! jk. Any help or suggestion would be really appreciated because I think a thread like this was long since needed here. And dont talk about visiting MIUI's official forums. Most of the guys there don't know half the things that is really worth discussing. Thank you guys.
note- dont want to use WSM tools nor can I find one for miui7.
note2- if I change the permissions of the folder (data/system/theme) to 444 allowing READ permissions only, the phone would just reboot without warning and continue to reboot until the permissions are changed back to normal (755).
No one?

I am starting to feel MIUI is really not so popular here on XDA. Blimey after about a hundred views not a single reply, let alone helpful ones. Anyway I will leave the thread as it is just in case somebody who had the same problem and found a workaround, sees the post.
