[Urgent] Facing error while creating ROM using dsixda kitchen! - General Questions and Answers

Hello all.
I am somewhat a noob at android development so please deal with me. Anyways skipping right to topic, while using dsixda's kitchen I cooked my base or stock ROM and I got error while deodexing,3 files were not deodexed. Later on I faced error about something of magic header not found at boot. I could not modify a single file using kitchen, couldn't add busy box, root access etc.
Anyway I compiled the ROM and made it flashable zip and got error status 0 from CWM
Sorry I am not knowing much details so I cannot provide exact information. I have few log files I am attaching hope it helps
Please help me to develop my own ROM.
I will once again cook the ROM for generating a step by step error I face and will provide later but if with this log you can help me I'll bee highly grateful.
Also if someone can guide me on how to add features to stock ROM for example when we press voume button we see the icon of the voice decreasing or increasing as per the button pressed in respective environment, I want to add all the 3 options of sound whenever I click the button in any any environment i.e when I press the volume up or down keys I see all the options of call sounds, media sounds, and notification sound. Also I want to add custom battery icon and change toggle icons color and their style and create or edit theme for my ROM. I know you'll say use search but trust me I searched a lot for 2 months constantly ending up in vain.! :"( Please if someone can tell me the best way to do it. I use Xperia SP. Thanks all Please help!
Here is the log file attached.
My device
Xperia SP C5302
Stock ROM JB 4.3 Official
Unlocked bootloader ** ROOTED ** Stock kernel

[Q] Where do ROM developers define ...

Can someone please tell me where, as in which file do ROM developers define ....
Volume setting
Sound Setting - ignore this, found it
Date Setting - found this, but changing it did not seem to make any difference
I would like to modify this file before I flash a ROM so that I can get it straight of.
Thanks

yes I know just that problem I'm talking in post #1
in your case to solve sensor buttons problem use this file in attachment
1.extract and copy to sdcard
2.enter Terminal Emulator already installed on phone
3 write these lines
Code:
#su
#cp /mnt/sdcard/isdm_KeypadLayout.kl /custpack/usr/keylayout/isdm_KeypadLayout.kl
#reboot
do not use Root Explorer to copy !
this is the hard-way to solve problem
if you like the easy-way flash keys.SFA.zip by CWM recovery

yes this is true but not a problem will happen every time you flash again
due to apk optimization I made but after system will construct Dalvik-cache will never happen !
but not necessary to change language just try to activate keyboard by example try to write a sms if keyboard has no response press back out of sms app and enter to try again...
regarding a2sd I used to move Dalvik-cache to get more space to apks
by example compared to stock Cosmote ROM you got 150-105= 45 MB free
if you want to experiment with a2sd use this help
but carefully !
how to flash CWM recovery
-install SDK for Android
-copy recovery.img to location where you stored sdk tools something like this android-sdk\platform-tools
-enter fastboot mode (phone is connected to PC )
to enter fastboot mode press VolDOWN+Menu at phone startup for 10s phone display is blank
-enter this from line commander (bash/cmd.exe)
fastboot devices -to start service or test connection to PC
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img -to flash required CWM recovery to phone
to enter CWM recovery press VolUP+Menu for 10s at phone start
This is how I installed CWM

I made this regarding post #1 for people who are newbies in Android to help install this custom ROM
also I think fastboot is the strongest tool for Android because will help to solve a lot of problems!
in Windows Mobile this is a tricky task to recover from an unsuccessful flash !

hello, I installed this rom that you did install without problems, the phone works fast, touch screen sometimes does not work pressing 3-4 times and did not respond after a while I try works.
why it takes so long to load before having it loaded faster, with no load and no keyboard out how to log into your account
do not take this as a criticism to note that the problems I notice you are done great.
mate pls make black status bar....

regarding lock screen already have plans...but not very easy to do that
try to import framework from x10mini custom roms...
think that for qvga custom roms, for x10mini had gone most furder...
PS: must edit look of "phone app" it's terible...
PS: i have bug on lock screen
slide on "phone" opens emergency call
I fixed a keyboard got rоm in the original phone which foot to Cyrillic and now with the installation and install it.
problem with touch screen remains in most cases not responding to touch, sometimes works sometimes not.

this is not a bug just about settings... I CAN NOT make a custom rom for every person asking for ...you have to use Prop Editor app included but be careful ! If you want to customize install some themes ... there are a lot of themes for ADW.Launcher and this is very very customizable... in fact it's the same launcher as Cyanogenmod also you have Go Launcher on Market at one click install ...
to import framework from Xperia good thinking if you have 1 year time at your own discretion...
or if someone is paid to do that
...
this is my custom ROM ..so made to use by me and posted here if someone is interested.. if not ...you are free to use any other ROM !
also
to see features included in this ROM ... read post no 1 before install you see nothing about 'beautiful interface' just performance/stability/ MORE free space/ and....
a lot of features... BUT YOU HAVE TO LEARN how to use these things...
In your case I suggest to revert back to your stock ROM if you don't like this one
Best Regards,

problem with touchscreen anyway mine works well
revert back to stock rom to see differences but I suppose is not a problem anyway I really don't have this problem. I'm expecting feedback from other persons to see what is this about ?
regarding keyboard not showing up ... as some people say... it is as done in the next version I put a new keyboard in fact as I see all Android phones on market have 2 keyboards installed -mine just one !
maybe default Android keyboard needs help from third party to wake up from sleeping
to check this ...install another keyboard from Market by example look for haker's keyboard
but I think this also could be about deodexing/ zipalinging features on this ROM
If is so then during the second launch every app should start well - so is about keyboard
Best Regards ,
u understud me wrong, i'm very thankfull...
u done great job, but i'm every day in contact with some serious gadgets ...
so when I SEE THIS LOCK SCREEN AND PHONE APP AND STATUS BAR.... I get mad...

[ROM] JXD S7100B ZCR v1_5 + setting [update 16 may]

this rom is only for S7100B
S7100B Zip's Custom Rom 1.5
the philosophy that underlies this first rom (do not expect miracles) is this:
If Android is not at 100% open, with the modifications of the house JXD, it is certainly less
for that cause this rom came WITHOUT any frills, so that the user choose what to have or not have on your console since the emu (not upgradeable) to app (not removable)
v1.5 changelog
-add theme faenza
-add advance task killer
-add my backup of vtl launcher settings
here is the v1.0 changes:
Based on the last official rom for JXD s7100b
- Removed ALL emulators series (since they could not raise it to update)
- Removed all serial applications to be added jxd (because there people who do not use FB Skype etc.)
- Removed serial launcher (really crappy)
-VTL.Launcher 1.6.5-added info link (ADW launcher launcher based on tablet-oriented
-FileManagerHD-added as a manager (much higher than 2 managers istallabili Series)
-Added superuser.apk
Changed clock font
changhed menu font
and that's it for now ..
The next thing I want to add (2.0) have a different boot animation, add a simple task killer, the theme for whiteware adw (if it works on VTL) default background, and another music video player
and then study how to make a backup of the settings of the launcher so who installs from scratch and restore my rom does not have to configure the home
A special thanks goes to SNESFAN and its forum: http://forum.openhandhelds.net/
Bitrider I create a custom rom for the first Android console,
to the reference point of android modding XDA
Android and the whole community
My community reference point for italian open source console users
www.OPENCONSOLE.it
BRIEF-Up Guide
1) get yourself a micro sd and put the files ZCR1.zip
2) make a backup of everything you need to save, (the new rom is really skinny)
3) Introduce the sd in the console
4) turn on the console by holding the keys POWER + MENU(the last button on the right of the 3 keys Android)
5) Wait and you will find in "bootloader)
6) Optional: make wipe of data/user
7) go to apply update from sd and start pressing the start / select
8) navigate and select ZCR1.zip and start the process
9) if all goes well should start installing the custom rom
10) when the process is finished you reboot system
you will come round to set up a launcher!
do not fear the next version will provide a backup of the settings in order to have everything already set
download: http://filesmelt.com/dl/ZCR1.zip
edit 16 may:
there is the 1.5 vers + my vtl launcher setting
download 1.5+ setting: http://www.openconsole.it/download/ZCR1_5s7100b.zip
extract on your sd card
follow the past guide

Thank you and a question
First, I want to thank you for the ZCR 1.5 custom rom. It has really been great to have an alternate to the stock firmware. I've been trying to determine how to build my own custom rom for the JXD S7100B, but appear to be missing a step somewhere.
I've constructed a ROM and created the .zip image and then attempted to sign it with signapk.jar with the typical android testkeys. However, every time I attempt to update from sdcard zip file in the recovery menu, I'm greeted with an E:signature not verified error. I've tried to create my own certificates using OpenSSL and sign with those, I've compared the ZCR 1.5 custom rom to the latest firmware update from JXD, I've even tried to simply resign the ZCR1_5.zip image with the testkeys. All attempts have failed. I've scoured the internets for as much information as I can find and I can't see any difference between what I am doing and what I am reading. I've tried executing the signapk.jar under 32-bit XP and under 64-bit Windows 7 just on the off chance that there was a precision discrepancy between the two versions of java.
I'm at a loss and would like to know if you would consider outlining the process you use to sign the .zipped image? Do you use jarsign or signapk or some other tool? Are you signing with something other than the testkey certs?
Thanks,
jkgamer

you may need dialer.apk, phone.apk and maybe contact.apk.
after you move them, set the correct permissions.
reboot.
if that doesn't work, may need to boot into cwm and wipe cache and dalvik.
alternate: you can try using titanium back up..remove those apk and then install the other apks from the myfiles

Ok. cool. But when i move them the phone starts to force close like crazy. I move them directly to /system/app/ and replacing the current apps. I didn't move just those apps tho. I also moved phone_Util.apk and PhoneSetupWizard.apk DialerTabActivity.apk and it worked but when someone would call me it wouldn't ring.
So my question is this. Do I just cut/past the ones you just described above to /system/app/ and then fix permissions ignoring FCs to rw-r-r. And reboot. Is that correct?
Thank you for your time. And quick response.

yeah..just work thru the FC's.
you can also use abd and have no fc issues.
if you are running a rom, you can make those changes to the rom before flashing...either way.
make sure you have a back up of your current set up...zen tool kit allows for a whole rom back up

Well I did it like you said worked thru the force closing and changed the permissions of all 3 apks (Contacts.apk DialerTabActivity.apk, Phone.apk)
to rw- r-- r-- is how each apk's permission were then I rebooted the phone. The volume is up and the ringtone is set. But when I call my phone from a different phone it does not ring, and at the bottom of the screen will blink Unknown between the green and red answering/ignore button on screen., even though above that. The picture for the contact calling the cell phone shows up and so do the Name as inputted into phone contacts. I don't know what i'm doing wrong, please help me out if you know what I am doing wrong. Thank you for your time

Explain to me what you are trying to do.
Which ROM are you currently running, kernel, root?, odex or deodex? Voodoo (ext4) or stock partition?
It is likely that if you are running simple root stock, with non-voodoo stock kernel, and adding a deodex apk to the mix, the stock kernel may not be able to use the deodex files. you may need to change kernel, or re-odex the apk you are trying to port. Remember, most apk's on the rooted stock has 2 file components.
You can try using the stock deodex base dman made as a base of work from there.
If you are only interested in the appearance of the rom, use 7zip and extract the png's from the apk you want and just paste it into the odex system files to get the same look.
In essence, I think you are trying to theme the stock rom or cook your own.

I used Odin to flash Option C found here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1613523
Which is Deodexed / Rooted / With Entropy's Daily Driver Kernel. I don't much about the partition stuff yet. Just started to scratch that surface. But i haven't messed with it. I know I have voodoo lagfix in the RED CWM recovery and it did say something about partition when i flashed the rom I can never understand what the chick says tho. But I have not altered it from the file you can download from that thread above. Except for uninstalling a bunch of stock libs.
I am trying to to get the phone app or the dialer setup i guess you can say from the Aeon Rom 1.4 because I can't figure out how to save the Facebook sharing options. via gallery/share/facebook sharing photos and what not. So I went with the stock rom and flash the Lidroid 14 toggle mod. and removed the logsprovider.apk with the modded one found in the same thread with option c in matter of a fact.
Are you saying though that I can unzip Phone.apk and DialerTabActivity.apk here in my PC and take the png?? and paste them to where exactly? I'm sorry I am trying to learn this stuff and It can be very frustrating at times because I am still super new to putting my own rom together. I just want the AEON rom dialer because it has that convenient message tab next to the call tab in the dialer so I want that and the phone to actually ring when someone calls me too.
Thank you for your patience qkster. I still can't believe that you have replied to my thread yourself. I have followed your posts and threads and advice for a long time. I appreciate all your hard work and what not that make ideas likes this possible. YOU ARE THE MAN!!!! lol.
Thank you for your time I hope this was detailed enough for you to get the idea i'm trying to project.

you are finding out what I consider theory, execution and practice.
in theory, it should work.
execution may not result as intended
practice makes perfect
Couple of issues:
1. you're running jesse's uclb3 rooted with extras. great. it's in an odin format, not a cwm. unfortunately it's not in cwm flashable zip.
you can create one if you google how to make a cwm flashable rom from stock leak.
if you can follow a complex set of instructions, go can try it here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1484578
(Jesse also made this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1711375
essentially the some odin option c you used. (he made that in odin for flash via download mode for borked phones)
his ethereal is essentially the same, meant to flash in RED cwm. except for his themes and sound options similar to sgs3.
the odin option c is essentially stock uclb3)
2. before you do anything, make a back up of your current desired setup with zen tool kit - so you can restore in event of boot loops.
3. have the apk with the icons you want on your pc desktop. use 7 zip. double click into the apk. go to res. go to drawable-hdpi. copies all the png. make a new temp folder on your desktop. call it what you want. paste the copied png into the temp folder and look at in windows, with thumbnail options. you will see the icons you want as it may appear in the rom.
4. pull out the apk of the rom you are running. put it on your desktop. look in it also. using 7zip, pull out the res/drawable-hdpi/ folder onto desktop. if you look in it, you will see the other png that you may no longer want. there are several ways to replace the ones you want but it's easier just to pull all the pngs you want into the drawable-hdpi on the desktop and bring the folder over into the apk or just paste them into the apk's /res/drawable-hdpi/
then flash the modded apk or push it into system
Use this for adb..it's easier to use

alternatively:
attached is a cwm-flashable shell...study it with 7zip. look at the updater-script. see what it does.
then put the modded apps into the /app folder and flash.
this can be use to flash framework apk/jar and/or system/app apk
test jesse's ethereal and aeon or any other. mix and match. with zen tool kit restore rom, you want play around and restore it back to where you left off
you can also try just pull the aeon apk into the shell and flash it again
remember too that each dev may have different setup or framework that may not let each apk interact correctly...until you have the right combo of files

you are finding out what I consider theory, execution and practice.
in theory, it should work.
execution may not result as intended
practice makes perfect

Thank you very much qkster. I really appreciate your help on this issue. I will be studying these threads and this Android Commander and getting to learn all I can about it. I have followed your posts for awhile and believe you are a very talented developer. I for one appreciate all of your hard work on the Samsung Infuse 4g and insight and advice that you offer.
I'm not gonna just jump right into it, I like to uderstand it all first. But I will definitely be looking this over and trying to absorb it all.
You have kept me busy for probably the next week with this one. Thank You again kind sir. I will let you know in the next day or so to be more realistic as to my progress and if I encounter any problems. Too Bad You don't have a | +1,000,000 THANKS | Button.

you're welcome.
(btw, i thank you for the compliment but i'm not a dev in the true sense. i can re-using and re-applying what is already out there.)
android commander is a graphic ui for adb..easier to use. you'll see that you can pull/push apks much easier, reboot, etc..
as far as learning ...read as much as your brain can handle and google what info you need...that's how most of us picked up this stuff..gl

I used that program you posted "android commander" and extracted a custom Rom to my PC and then using Android Commander I pushed phone.apk dialertab.apk and camera.apk over to my phone and everything it's working fine. Although I had to change permissions to rxw-rxw-r-x
Instead of rw,r r. But it's all doing fine so far. Phone will ring. Camera takes pictures with the power button and I got my dialer tab wanted. Thank you again man. I appreciate you for real.

Hey qkster,
I have one more question if you don't mind. Where would i find the File that contains the png's for the notification bar/toggles? I would like to change that stuff around as well and see if I can change the colors and toggle images? Just need to know where to find the file containing those png's
look in:
systemui
settings
frameworks-res
there are several areas...
check the main xda android theme sections
make a revert or backup..once you start playing with settings, systemui and framework-res, you might experience boot loops
use the cwm-shell i posted. put the original working files in the correct location..call it revert...put the experimental files in another shell copy, and call whatever..
Hey qkster ever since I moved those files. that i posted in my last post my text messaging has been acting up. Every once in awhile. I finally narrowed it down to the problem being if the text is too long it fails to send the text message is there a way to fix this while at the same time keeping my alterations I have made to the rom?

[Q] Request comments on My Very First ROM for Samsung Galaxy S5830I

After 3 days and 3 nights of brain storming and hard work, I finally came out with a ROM that is based on the ROM MindCr. Actually I already figured out a lot of things but I still face a few problems here that I need detail explanations.
1. For the toggle switch buttons, how can I change those icons ?
2. I extract settings.apk from other ROM, but there are a few things that I do not want for my ROM ? How can I remove it ?
3. Under the android version, when we press 5 times, a picture is displayed with some words, How can I change that ?
If you have any suggestion how can I improve it ? Please explain the ways because I am still a newbie. I just finished by middle school BTW.
Features of PeanutButter ROM
1. Based on MindCr, coppy some from Ace-i-sure
2. Orange themed with UOT
3. Some tweaks modified
4. Run on stock ROM, custom ROM is removed
5. Some applications is replaced
6. Some function in Settings.apk not functioning.
You really need to learn what your doing as from your posts you have no real idea what your doing other then winziping a rom. Spend some time learning to develop properly.
