Doesn't look like it has the structure of an android application (apk).
Where did you get this from and what is it supposed to do?
I find it this in filecrop when I was look for DLNA for android
Mayby there was a mistake in a website
I sorry but i dont have link !

Guys, can anyone write a guide to teach us how to make your own framework?
I searched all over the net and actually not one is teaching.
Please make a guide if u know how to make it.
Thanks in advance.
There are at least ten guides on xda. One of them is written by me. Search xda properly. Check the android themes forum.
In fact if I remember correctly Kevin even gave u the link to one of the best guides.

also if you want to do some hardcore theming, if you're in windows, download apk manager, learn how to decompile and compile apks using it. also learn how to edit .9 pngs
any easier guide?
I dont need too advance guide and full of words...
i just want to change the signal. wifi and battery in framework..
so is there easier guide?
1. make your custom icons. (size 25x25)
2. open framework-res.apk in any zip manager (winrar, winzip, watever)
3. open the /res/drawable-mdpi folder
4. replace whichever icons you want to replace, making sure you name them correctly.
5. save
6. use adb to push file to phone from recovery.
7. reboot.
I'll try tomorrow. Thanks

MAJOR NOOB ALERT!!!
Hello. Working on the theory that less is more, I'll get on with the questions...
1. I am trying to edit the .bash_profile file and I can't do it. Please help!
2. The reason I am trying to use the kitchen is to work on the excellent SFM 1.1 ROM for the wildfire. Can the kitchen be used this way, or can I try to port the SFM 1.2 from the Salsa?
I asked my mum why I was so special, but she didn't know...

Read post #3 of the kitchen thread.

I have read the third post of the kitchen
I can FIND the file, but when I open it in Wordpad and add the line on the end, cygwin still can't find my JAVA.
Sorry if this is a really noob mistake...
I did find the porting answer though
Thanks!!

I have made a VERY noob mistake...
I have just realised that editing a file that is used in a LINEX enviroment in Wordpad isn't very clever - no wonder it's not working
Could somebody tell me how I can remove the Wordpad file association and how I need to edit it so that Cygwin can recognise it?
Sorry for my stupidity...

I have installed gvim, edited the bash_profile file, and tried to run the kitchen, but then it says the clear command is not found.
I know this is covered in the FAQ's, but I have been over the installation, and am 99% sure I have done nothing wrong in installing cygwin. I followed the readme and the picture guide, and am getting very frustrated...
I only want to get the kitchen working...
(after that I'll go and hassle the guys in the wildfire forum!)
Just delete your entire cygwin dir and re install and all should be good.
By the sounds of it you did exactly the same as I did. Mines all sorted now after a re install.

I too would love the help and for possibly someone to take me under their wing. I am very eager to learn. I'm always on my phone, and always trying to read, but sometimes the forums just contradict themselves, and let's face it, with all the drama going on in the forum, it can sometimes get a little frustrating trying to ask for help, especially when someone doesn't want to be bothered by a noob. Thanks in advance

Not sure what you are asking. For the sdk tools, do you mean the android sdk? If so, follow the instructions on the sdk page. For the images, I assume you mean the boot.img and possibly system.img. You do not open these. If you have a system.img, that means you probably have a shipped rom. Use the kitchen to create working folder from rom, and choose this. It should auto extract the system partition. As for the boot.img, you don't generally need to extract this, but there is an option in the advanced settings of the kitchen. You can change your rom's kernel in the boot.img.

Hey Guys!
First of all a bit of encouragement. The android kitchen sure as hell does not turn you into a rom developer. I decided i wanted to use the kitchen just over 2 weeks ago and run ubuntu in a virtual window. From then I decided I did not like windows anymore so installed linux as my main os and had to learn that (trust me getting the graphics card to work was a chore) I finally got the kitchen working tonight and decided to sign up to xda. Even with my limited knowledge I have been able to help someone on here tonight. Read Read Read and ask questions if you can not find the right answers on the forum. Research pays off eventually. (I now softmod nintendo wiis professionally from learning off a forum!!!!) Remember everyone has to start somewhere even if you are a noob and don't get disheartened if someone says you should have read this this and this. As long as you learn from ur mistake I'm sure people wont mind too much.

Here's my advice for those looking to make their own Android ROMs.. Stop. Write an app or two first, learn how the system works from a developer standpoint. Learn some Java. Read the developer documentation. Learn how to use Git. Then learn how to build AOSP from source. Read the porting guides, and learn how the build system works (the links below have almost everything you could possibly want to know). Now try to put your new found skills to work on enhancing the platform by writing code or making theme overlays. And share! And put that **** on your resume. There is a *ton* of information out there but any kind of "step-by-step rom cooking guide" is going to be a complete fail- it's too broad of a subject.

The PDK site is absolutely vital if you are going to work on custom ROMs. Read every single page. Twice. Some of the info isn't up to date, but you'll get a really good idea about what goes into actually configuring Android to work on a real device.

What version of Linux are you running? Are you running Ubuntu? I never had much luck using the Android Kitchen in a virtual environment for some reason. When I installed Ubuntu as my main OS, however, that made all the difference. From there you'll also need to make sure you have the Java Developers Kit (JDK) installed or at least open-jdk (Open source alternative) installed in order to run the Android Kitchen or the SDK for that matter.
There's a really good tutorial on how to set up the SDK on Ubuntu 10.10 or Ubuntu 11.04 which is what I had used to set up the SDK on linux for the first time. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=921169
I prefer 10.10 just because I'm not huge on Ubuntu's newer Unity interface and my old laptop seems to run 10.10 a lot better than 11.04 or 11.10 but that's another story.
Once you have the SDK setup, you can then run the kitchen accordingly.
I use a tool called Android Utility by tommytomatoe which is essentially a collection of tools for creating custom ROMs, editing apk's, etc. It just happens to also include dsixda's kitchen which is a nice plus. You can download that here: http://rootzwiki.com/topic/3303-utility-android-utility-apktooldex2jarsmalimoremac-linuxoct09-2011/
Hope this helps. Good luck, dood!
**Edit** My bad... There's also a thread for Android Utility on XDA also....

Hello,
I have a weird request, I hope someone here can help me.
I am looking for a specific notification sound (Can't remember its name) that used to be included in the stock image of Android 1.6 on HTC Magic. Can anyone help me get the extracted notifications from the original image?
Thank you

As now, nobody would be using Android 1.6 donut, its impossible to get the sounds from a working device.
The nearest things you could do is to download the android-sdk and download the Android 1.6 (API 4) SDK Platform, and you'll find an images folder inside the platforms folder and inside that you'll find the system.img
Extract that system.img using any img extraction tool like dsixda kitchen etc, and you'll be able to get its sounds and audio files I guess.
I have an HTC Dream that is still on 1.6 , once I get home I'll try to get it for you.

My mistake, my Dream is on 1.5 I think the default sound is called "Friendly"
I don't have it rooted so might take me a bit to get a copy of the sound files.

Hey guys,
I was searching for a tool to edit an apk file and i found Apk Tool on xda but i think it's not
that much easy to work with this program. (for a n00b, like me.. )
I managed to open and edit te file with winRAR,
but is this program also capable of proper compiling the app again, ready to use?
I tried it and it worked well i think, but is this possible with any app or other kinds of changes?
If this is stupid or something, please tell me. I am not very experienced in these kinds of things.. (neither in english, sorry.. )
Somebody any ideas?
Thanks in advance!

It all depends on what you edit,obviously you didnt make a fatal change,so it must have been small,no its not possible to edit anything else as far as the manifest and xml files.You'll get a parsing error.

Okay, that's true i only changed those kinds of files and it wasn't a problem yet.
I changed somethings in an demo version of an app and now it recognizes it as the full version so winRAR can be pretty usefull for apk edit if you keep things simple like this..
