In my kernel installer ZIP file, I have added some modules in system/lib/modules ... however they never end up getting installed.
My updater-script is:
Code:
ui_print("");
ui_print("Flashing Kernel");
mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p24", "/system");
package_extract_dir("system", "/system");
symlink("/lib/modules", "/system/lib/modules");
set_perm(0, 0, 0644, "/system/lib/libhardware_legacy.so");
set_perm(0, 0, 0644, "/system/lib/hw/lights.msm8660.so");
set_perm(0, 2000, 0550, "/system/etc/init.qcom.post_boot.sh");
set_perm_recursive(0, 0, 0755, 0644, "/system/lib/modules");
unmount("/system");
show_progress(0.500000, 0);
assert(package_extract_file("boot.img", "/tmp/boot.img"),
write_raw_image("/tmp/boot.img", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p8"),
delete("/tmp/boot.img"));
show_progress(0.100000, 0);
ui_print("Done");
I've included my kernel zip file also so you can extract it and find the directory structure. Is it because the initramfs in boot.img overwrites this directory or something?

it appears that anything put in the root of /system or in /system/lib is not honored. If I put something in /system/etc it will get installed via the updater script
I am finishing off an update script and ran into a problem trying to set the permissions on an init.d script that I am loading to the system. Here are a few things I have tried to set on "crystal_clear" without success.
set_perm_recursive(0, 0, 0777, 0777, "/system/etc/init.d");
set_perm(0, 0, 0777, "/system/etc/init.d/crystal_clear");
Am I even close with this? This is my first update script. I bet i'm just missing something stupid but it's been killing me for hours and tried so many variations.
Here is everything so far. If there is something else you see here that doesn't look right please let me know.
show_progress(0.1, 0);
ui_print("Mounting System Partition");
mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p14", "/system");
package_extract_file("tweaks/buildprop.sh", "/tmp/buildprop.sh");
package_extract_file("tweaks/sysmount/sysrw", "/tmp/sysrw");
package_extract_file("tweaks/sysmount/sysro", "/tmp/sysro");
set_perm(0, 0, 0777, "/tmp/buildprop.sh");
set_perm(0, 0, 0777, "/tmp/sysrw");
set_perm(0, 0, 0777, "/tmp/sysro");
ui_print("");
ui_print("Patching Build.prop");
run_program("/sbin/sh", "/tmp/sysrw");
run_program("/sbin/sh", "/tmp/buildprop.sh");
ui_print("");
ui_print("Patching adreno_config.txt, and egl.cfg");
package_extract_dir("system", "/system");
run_program("/sbin/sh", "/tmp/sysro");
show_progress(0.1, 10);
ui_print("");
ui_print("All tweaking processes are done");
ui_print("Adjusting framebuffer and color depth");
package_extract_file("system", "/system/etc/init.d");
set_perm(0, 0, 0777, 0777, "/etc/init.d/crystal_clear");
show_progress(0.2, 0);
unmount("/system");
ui_print("DONE");
General comments.
A simple
Code:
set_perm_recursive(0, 0, 0755, 0755, "/system/etc/init.d");
after I've extracted the all the files I've wanted to the right place has always worked fine in the CWM ZIP I keep for personal use to install BusyBox etc.

You don't need these. CWM/TWRP will mount /system rw by default and you don't really need to remount it ro in CWM.
package_extract_dir("system", "/system");
package_extract_file("system", "/system/etc/init.d");

Is "system" a directory or a file?
That said, I think you want the former - just have a system folder in the root of your ZIP mirroring where you want the files to be placed (so in your ZIP, create a "system" folder at the same level as META-INF and then have a "etc" folder inside that, then a "init.d" folder inside "etc" with your script inside "init.d").
THANK YOU!
I'm going to try a few things you said and go from there.
Here is my current hierarchy...
4xMultiSampling_Antialiasing.zip
......META-INF
..........com
.............google
................android
.....................update-binary
.....................updater-script

.........etc

If that's not a typo, it needs to be init.d - ext* file systems, unlike Windows', are case-sensitive
Yes that was a typo, but I appreciate your attention to detail because that's is exactly what I need. As you know, its that sort of thing that can kill a script. Critique away!
It appears I was able to pull it off with your help. Thanks. All is well here now.
Glad to hear it.
Good morning,
First I apologize if this post goes here.
I'm trying to make a flash file to install some apps in memory data, but there is no way to run the script because I do not know how to mount / data.
How could mount /data?
I put the script that used so far to copy some melodies, the bootanimation and some app to /system
Code:
mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p12", "/system");
package_extract_dir("system", "/system");
set_perm_recursive(0, 0, 0755, 0644, "/system/media/audio");
set_perm_recursive(0, 0, 0755, 0644, "/system/media/bootanimation.zip");
unmount("/system");
Im not a pro in developing x)
From what i know u can make flashaple zips at android kitchen
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda premium
I want to make a update patch
but some confusion for permissions
I want permission with folder with subfolder/s & file/s
Code:
drwxr-xr-x
Which string/code I use in script
For example
Code:
set_perm_recursive(0, 0, 0755, 0644, "/folder");
Somebody Help me please
@mmxandy @bsuhas @sagarwep @SuperDroid-BOND @Dark4Droid @captain_nemo @pratikmore @ibshar @Ak****banta @jaunty @anand_mmx @proseray & @all who know this
Use set_perm_recursive(0, 0, 0755, "/system/folder");

If the folder isnt on System... No special need to set permission.... Just Include this on Script " package_extract_dir("folder", "/folder"); "

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

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.
