Hello
I have a rooted htc legend running cm7 with data2ext enabled. I have downloaded metamorph from the market, but when i run it and it does a scan/check. i get the following error
"Some files could not be set up. Please make sure you have enough free space in /system"
But when i check in root explorer, it says there is ~90 mb free in /system.
i also have busybox installed since i am using titanium backup which works properley.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks :-D
You don't need metamorph in CM7. There is Theme Manager installed.

download an other custom rom and modify it:
add/remove apps
change theme
modify apps (change the icons..etc)
modify framework-res.apk
add tweaks
and any other things you want
I Think that we do not need more rom developer, with owain and slade we got enough, maybe yoou should study about kernel development, thats what we need , im already studying kernels too

Download some custom rom (CM7, CM6, slade's rom or owain's rom) and check in, \META-INF\com\google\android\Update-script, what its inside this file, this will be damn useful for you
EDIT: BTW, check permissions

messing in the rom is modding,
try to port a rom close to our hardware like wildefire/legend htc sense
play with libs.
for developing get cyanogenmod/floyo or some other source and set it up and try to compile.
ServerBoost100, you are saying that you want to be a developer, but you ask for every step here. Maybe do your own job and study something, not only
ok, i have (...), what now?

Hi, I am using HyDrOG3N-ICS ROM and like many custom ROMS the boot sound is removed. How could I add a boot sound back into the ROM?
Thanks
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA
Open rom with Win rardo not extract .
Locate and open System then open ETC .
Then from ADD button add POWERon.wav for GB or .OGG if its ICS close and flash the rom .

Thanks for the info, Is there no way to do without flashing ROM again?

Take the PowerOn.ogg sound file, and put it in /system/etc using Root Explorer. Make sure you remount /system as R/W first.
I have tried this already and it is not working for me is there anything else that needs to be done?

You sure the file is good? If you try to open the .ogg file in Root Explorer, does it actually play?
Yes it defiantly had sound and plays. I assume the boot animation uses the system volume?

Yes, that was going to be my next question. Is your system volume turned up to an audible level when you boot?
Yes all turned up to max. Is there anything in the bootanimation.zip it's self that affects sound?

I don't think so...
And it turns out this may be related to the ROM after all... when I search the HyDrOG3N-ICS thread for the string "boot sound", I get a lot of results of people asking how to add it in, but no replies on how to get it done.
EDIT: after some searching, I found this post. Maybe you can try using this dev's kitchen app to attempt enabling the boot sound?
Sorry, nevermind. That looks like it is a kitchen app for his specific ROM, and may not work for HyDrOG3N.
EDIT 2: Try adding the PowerOn.ogg file to /etc instead of /system/etc. This folder (/etc) SHOULD be a logical mapping to /system/etc, but sometimes, it just doesn't work that way for some reason.
Still no luck. From further reading it seems boot sound is not supported at all on some roms. I have found suggestions of custom scripts that may work however most seem aimed at cm7. Think I may try some tomorrow. Thanks

How am I supposed to know? I don't use that ROM, nor am I the ROM chef.
Either ask in the ROM thread, or do some research. Google is your friend.
I don't mean to be short with you, but this is just lazy. Type into google "ics rom boot sound".

My Answer is for kagouro - Becouse i Don't see your post when I write.
If Your Phone is dedected in adb you can use logcat (adb logcat in windows cmd) if phone don't dedected in adb - flash recovery via fastboot, join in recovery , instal working rom and found bad files in rom (try add modyfication singly - first root, second busybox etc - in this metod you can see whad mod don't work - probably stupid method but work :cyclops

Kitchen will replace certain necessary parts of your ROM if it isn't compatible with the kitchen, it puts them back when you compile. When you compiled your ROM did you take the guided option? Also, and probably the first thing I should have asked, is your phone compatible with kitchen?

OK, just for giggles try this, take the meta-inf folder from a rom you know works and using 7zip replace the one in your rom. Let me know if that helped at all:beer:

What kind of help are you looking for? Do you want suggestions on what to add? Are stuck on how to add a particular feature to your ROM? One thing you could try is compiling AOSP and using that as the base for your ROM a great guide on doing that can be found here and here (Official Google guide to building AOSP). I'll be happy to help you out best I can so let me know if you still have questions.

Glad you were able to fix that, my main suggestion would be to modify only one part of your ROM at time (Just like a science experiment) that way you know that if it doesn't work it's very likely because of the modification you just made. Also logcat will be a big help to help you figure out where things are causing problems and what things are causing problems.

Also make sure in your ROM's updater-script the system apps you have added are given the proper file permissions.
I did a work-around and made added apps get flashed to /data/app. But Play Store still fc's. I modified the updater-script from another Rom for this phone, but I only added lines.
