Hello,
I am running CM7 A8.1, and I am wondering how to merge the following update.zip files into 1 update.zip so I don't have to install 1 by 1?
Here is the order in which I install the following zips after flashing the Alpha8 through Odin:
1. CM7.2.0-GT-I5800_Alpha8.1a_CWM.zip (http://cm7-i5800.googlecode.com/files/CM7.2.0-GT-I5800_Alpha8.1a_CWM.zip)
2. Google Apps (http://goo.im/gapps)
3. Deodexed version of A8 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1415179)
4. ICS Complete patch by AChep (same as above)
5. MegaBassBeats audio (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1602753)
6. Hillbeast's test002 kernel of G3Mod (http://db.tt/PteQpsdY)
If someone could merge all of these into 1 update zip I would be very grateful, if not just tell me what I should do to merge them
And if that's not possible could you link me a thread on how to make my own rom with the current things i have installed (all of the above update.zips) and convert it into a tar so i can just flash that instead of update.zips

This can be done via Aroma Installer Script which is a full GUI Mode for Installing which Runs in Recovery.. I think Rubensollie was making one.. Not sure when he will release..

Can I try and overwrite one after another with total commander and then apply the zip that is made of all the overwritten files (also delete the .odex files and the unnecessary apps from system/app)?

Not only that, I am thinking about overwriting the files in that particular order which I would usually run update.zip, so I can get 1 instead of 6 update.zips

Ah! now I get what you actually meant. Actually what you want can be done without Aroma Installer.. You just need files at proper place directories..
1.Take CyanogenMod Alpha 8.1 Extract the ZIP.
2.Remove zImage and add the zImage of HB Kernel
3.Remove Apps and Framework folder from /system and add from Deodexed CyanogenMod
4.Go to each folder in Achep Patch and replace the files in the CyanogenMod 7 Folder..
5.Do similarly and replace file for MegaBassBeats and Gapps.. Be careful to place in correct directory.
Repack the META-INF, system and zImage folder at Store Compression Level. Apply it and there you go!

Thanks that's the guide i've been looking for!
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.
When I was having my s6, there was a flashable zip for adblock, emoji and other mod. It there any mod zip for the s7?
Try the ones from the s6 make sure you do a backup
- Edit - Read post 2 first
I Deodexed my framework folder with Super R's kitchen and patched services jar file to enable signature spoofing for MicroG. The flashable zip should wipe your framework folder and replace it with the new one. I can't test it right now, but try it out if you want. If the flashable doesn't work, and you want to use it, just extract the zip and use file manager in recovery to delete your whole framework folder and copy the new one there, (probably a good idea to wipe dalvik/cache).
Note about deodexing - could possibly make certain aspect of the phone slower. Only thing I have noticed so far is longer boot time...

Update - so I tried it, and it doesn't flash properly, (some error in the script), but I also found out that it's much more stable to just replace the services jar with the deodexed one, and leave the rest of the framework as-is. So if you want to use MicroG, just extract the services jar from the zip, and then use file manager in recovery to delete the current one, and also delete the 3 services files, (odex, vdex, and art), from /system/framework/oat/arm64.
Then you can flash MicroG...
Zip attachment in first post is a custom Magisk module that was made with smali patcher. It replaces services jar file with a patched one that is deodexed (see above for instructions)...
I have a stock rom zip file ready to be flashed into micromax c2apls but I want to remove the preinstalled apps before flashing, is there some easy way to do it like deleting some folders or something afer extracting the zip and compressing the zip please let me know.
The Stock ROM Zip-file contains an installer script that controls the installation: simply removing APKs from the ZIP-file may lead into unpredictable results.
