what about the new file_context format from Oreo Roms ?
not working fine
it just extracts the small portion of file_context.bin
on compiling some ramdisk files removed because of less file_context contents.

Very good job.
Please, provide tool for converting filecontexts.bin without using androidimagekitchen tool.
Because I put boot.img from mi6 oreo rom and it can't unpack, but I have filecontexts.bin already from zip rom.

Hi there. Can you please provide the source code of this? Because f you do then we may be able to port it to Linux which would be very useful for us. It's really a pain to use windows for many linux users.
Or if u dont wanna make it open source, if pssible you yourslef provide a linux version of it whenever u get time
just crashes for me

hello guys, i know here you are not STOCK ROM LOVER guys, but i have some question
it's possible to delete some apps before installing this rom? I extracted with huawei update extractor but there are some IMG files which i dont know how and which change, if you'll help me or someone can create ZIP file of B390 (h60-l04) for flashing with CWM or TWRP it will be very good.

u can flash stock first, and then, if rooted, simply delete whatever app u wish...

but, if i want to delete the whole gapps? = }
it is not even part of stock rom, so nothing to delete.
still, if u would have it, it can be deleted as well.

I agree with @nrpetonr, btw what are you doing my friend , you can delete every app or even destroy you android device when you have root access (just a example don't try it). So I don't think we have to delete them from UPDATE.APP

i think you can remove apps from adb. Something like :
Code:
adb root
adb uninstall [package-name]
You must have root access. Good luck

6 reasons you need to be using a Custom R. O. M.
1) Increase Privacy.
2) Remove Bloatware.
3) Extend the Life of your Phone.
4) Be Less Reliant on Large Companies.
5) Use Open Source Software.
6) Personalize Everything.

Of course :

This method isn't called porting but building from source , and that's how (almost) every people who want to port a ROM do .
