what do you mean?
What kind of .zip?
is it flashable?
If not, extract it on PC or androidzip on phone, and use the wallpapers?
im not sure what kind of .zip your talking about.
The honeycomb wallpapers were in the forums about a week ago. I have the file on my phone but I don't know how to install. I tried doing it from recovery but it gets stuck on the installation screen.,

Don't do that. Just open the zip on your computer and see if you can pull the images out.

What he said^^^ I just make a folder on my internal sd called backgrounds and put my wallpapers in them.. I think if you long press on a zip file on your sd it will also extract it to a folder called extracted on your phone.
Just unzip and set the image as wallpaper.

When i downloaded the gingerblur file and opened it, there was no gingerblur installation.zip file in the package. I don't know any other way to put the rom onto my phone without this. Any help is appreciated.

that file you downloaded IS the installation zip. just put it on your sdcard and flash in CWM

The whole file? Its like 3 seperate folders with different files inside of them.

Look at the post right above your last one. Research is a wonderful thing.
So do you not extract the file and just put the gingerblur.zip onto the sd card?

Some people aren't sure how to create a flashable zip. So here is a template zip file.
Instructions add your APK files to the appropriate directory within the zip.
ie framework-res.apk would go in system/framework/
SystemUI.apk would go in system/app/
Vigor_VZW_bootanimation.zip would go in system/customize/resource/
*You may need to create directories within the zip*
lol nice idea i have never thought about making one for people I forget people dont know how
This could be very useful for people who are new to theming and from development and who are still learning how to sign zips.
Nice work and good idea.

Agreed. This is pretty sweet and actually an idea I was going to ask someone for once (I had no idea how to do these).
And MrSmith, now I can try to get all the boot anims updated with flashables also so that everyone will have different options. Thanks!!
Thanks for dropping this. Already have one, but this helps anyone trying to learn. You may have given the next big developer a good first tool. Congrats.....

Is this just the required directories for theming or does it include the ones required to make a flashable ROM?

this is just a flashible zip only you will need to add your files to the right folders to make it theme
is there a list of the folders? for example what folders should i make to add ringtones to the ones that are already on my phone? how about notifications, wallpapers, etc.?

The three things you've listed are items that can be freely transferred via USB. This is more for theme elements and applications.
However to answer your question, stock ringtones and notifications are in /system/media/audio/ringtones and /system/media/audio/notifications . The stock wallpapers are stored in /system/customize/resource.

Good idea.. I have my own templates I use. Never thought to post.. kinda nervous that someone out there would brick their phone and blame me...been busy as hell past month, hopefully soon I'll get some time to port over some of my previous work over to the rezound, since now all the issues with compiling and decompiling have been figured out.. I got some catching up to do

Mr. Smith,
So if I wanted to make a flashable zip of say the market apk or root explorer that I can keep on the root of my SD card so if for some reason the rom I flash is missing gapps. Would I just make a folder called data with a subfolder called app and then it would get installed in data app ? Then drop the apk within the app folder and resign using android signer ?
I just had that happen while trying to flash the anthrax kernel , for some reason I lost my market apk and since it was a fresh flash I had no access to a file explorer. So ended up googling the commands to adb push the market apk to system. It worked, but made me think if I had my own flashable market zip I could have just flashed that and been up and running easier .

You got it. As long as you get the structure down right, flashing the zip will drop the files in the proper directory on your phone/device.
What about file permissions and owner? How do we set that in the zip (eg. if I need to flash a file to /system that requires permissions 644, owner 0/0.

Android handles that. However you can edit the script : META-INF/com/google/android/updater-script to make whatever changes you need. So you could add a line: run_program("/sbin/busybox", "chmod", "644", "xxx_file");

Ahh, I googled for edify scripts and found there is a set_perm command which does exactly what I need. Thanks!

Quick Q. is it possible to create 1 flashable zip that would flash more than 1 file into different directories I.e a file into System/app and another in System/Framework ?

Yeah man, that's what this blank flashable zip does
You can put as many files in the 'app' or 'framework' folder and it will flash them all

I did a search and found an HTC EVO flashlight apk. Installed it on the HTC ONE but the 3 brightness setting doesn't work.
Does anyone have the HTC ONE stock flashlight APK?
My phone is bootloader unlocked, rooted, and running on stock ATT rom. Not considering custom rom at the moment due to some app and software compatibility issues.
Thanks!

Sorry I am total newbie at this. I downloaded the zip file from the dropbox link to my computer. I unzipped it. Inside I see two folders and three individual files but non is with an apk extension.
The two folders are named: Meta-Inf, and Res. The three individual files are AndroidManifest, class.dex, and resources.arsc.
I also tried to put the entire zipfile into my phone's memory and install from there. But since it's a zip I had to open view it with ezfile. Also no luck from there.
Should I just change the zip extension to apk?
Thanks
Just download it on your phone and install

Yeah I should have done that but I don't know why I've been transferring everything via my computer first.
But it worked by changed the extension on my computer first as well.
Thanks again !!
