Well the back ground will be stwater.jpg or a tsk file and the bootscreen will be welcomehead.96, as far as unused themes they should be tsk files! Hope fully this is what you need!

Oooo, good question, I am not a chef, though I want to learn when my TP gets here! PM parley and ask him, he is a great guy and loves to help!

Will do. I wish I could figure this out this is all I need to finish before I release the next build of my ROM. Meh.

This is absolutely correct. Search for the TSK files and take out the ones you don't want.
The default backgrounds etc are in:
\SYS\base_dpi_96_resh_240_resv_320
The background is: Default_stwater_240_320.gif
To change the boot screen background you need the splash tool...I included it in the kitchen I uploaded for you.
It is a two step process...take the file and upload it to the splashtool.exe...save it. Then you have to convert it using nb_image_converter.exe.
Once you have the nb file, you can build a rom with htcrt.exe and select your splash.nb for the splash and your correct os_new.nb for the system. You can mark you build etc there. Also make sure you select kaiser for the device.
Parley
IM me if you can't pm me. my im's are in my profile.

No problem. Don't forget, I released the kitchen to you in your other thread. I also released it in the Phoenix thread for anyone that wants to use it. It is really Bepe's kitchen with phoenix guts and some tools I have gathered along the way that I find useful.
More info here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=3526083&postcount=965

I do not have time to download your whole kitchen for the splash tool. Someone upload the splash tool for me. PLEASEE

Thank you for the response and the zip guys!
@ Sporkman: That program you linked me to look great, but unfortunately, it doesn't prepare any ZIP files, always gives the Specified file not found error, which apparently the Dev never addressed, but thank you very much though!
@ bnice20: Can you give me the name of the tool, or the method you used to make this APK flashable? Even though it didn't work, quite the way I wanted, it did flash something, LOL!
Thanks again for your help guys, looking forward to your responses!

BUMPING for a tool that works for signing APKs to Flashable ZIPs !?

Hey ProFragger,
Did you ever figure out how to create a flashable zip file from an apk?
Also, I'm very curious what is the contacts app you had bcnice20 create for you?
I'm trying to take a people app from the EVO 3D or the Sense and put it on my EVO 4G so that I can filter the google contacts. EVO 4 G is the only HTC phone that doesn't have this option. I've been fighting it for years, but just recently rooted so now I'm looking at trying to mess with it again.

*bump.. sniff.. *bump**

app2zip, available on the android market. Unfortunately, I think you have to install the app, then select it and pres "Back up", and name it however you like.

I've made a tiny CLI for this: github dot com/mkg20001/apk2flashzip
Simply run `bash apk2flashzip.sh some.apk` and it should make a ZIP

[BOOTANIMATION] XoomNexus

This is the Xoom boot animation ported for the Nexus One. All credits go to tntdroid over at the androidcentral forums for his DroidX port.
Instructions
Place in tools folder, open a cmd prompt and:
Code:
adb push bootanimation.zip /data/local
Link.
Link2
Alternatively, flash the Xoom-signed file in your recovery of choice:
Link
Note: The little honeycomb bee is not part of the bootanimation but rather seems to be a splash screen, which as of yet N1 users can't change.

Do these instructions apply to the HD Desire port also...like MM's 1.7 build? Or is there some other location to push it to?
Thanks...looks cool.

Hmmm both links work just fine here. Try this link.
Edit: Just attached to the first post.

Must be my rom... u on cm7?
Edit: was able to dl from the xda app, thanks for adding to post!!

The video doesn't do it justice.
I was hesitance because honestly it didn't look all that with the video.
I tried it and in person it's awesome looking. Thank you.
Also: I used Root Explorer to move the file to data/local

Will this work on MIUI ROMs?

Yep, all N1 ROMs should be compatible, in fact unless I missed something all 800x480 devices should be compatible.

Good news every! This works perfectly!
This would be a sick live wallpaper...anyone? Anyone?

There is something different with the HD desire roms, neither typical locations work when pushed.

+1 to this. I have rebooted twice in a row just to watch it!

Any possibility of this being made to a flashable zip? If anyone could be kind enough to do so for the more less experienced users it would be greatly appreciated.......thnx.

It is really simple. Use root explorer to place the zip file in data/local. Reboot and enjoy.

I'll have a look into making one tomorrow. I've been meaning to try my hand at making an update-script so I'll have a crack at it then. Oh and baseballfanz is correct, Android Mate also has a root file explorer.

Cool man , appreciate it if you could, not just for me but for others as well. I fully understand all the help and advice thats being givin and will try my hand at all of it, i have no problem with learning more as i go.
i guess my whole point with a flashable zip is just providing more options, i mean i always thought that was the whole concept of open source, providing options....ya know? Again thnx for the responses and all the work everyone puts into the android world, its a fun experience...really is..

[HOW TO] [APK] Flash ZIP files without custom recovery's

This is just a little something I thought might be useful to people who don't always want to boot into recovery just to install a ZIP file. Please do note that you won't be able to install ROMs via this way as it's part of the operating system! :good: Also this is still in development by the designer/developer @Androguide.fr and I am NOT trying to steal his work, just simply spreading it for the Moto X Play forum area. Please support him, he is great!
Please refer to his thread for all the bug fixes and updates! Thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2250555
I have included the APK file below for ease of download.
Please do remember to support the developer. Thanks.

My apologies.
I'll try to elaborate a bit...
What is the difference between the "Untouched" version of the APK Editor Pro and the "Crack" version?
I did purchase the APK Editor Pro on the Play Store a long time ago and, when you had provided one with the word "Crack" in it, it just confused me as to the difference between the two.
I do appreciate your continued development here after the removal from the Play Store.

[Crack] - this is the sporting interest of one of our members of the forum. The application has very strong protection. Try to change the signature of the original application. By the way, I bought the application just as long ago. And yes, by the way, the application is restored in Google play.

If there's an attachment to remove as well, then I hit the same option to edit the post but, I also select the "Advanced" option then, in that screen, you can manage the post attachment(s) to add/remove them.
