Script. It's spelled "script"!!! j/k
Look up the kitchen on here. It does that as one of the features and does it very well. I believe it was called just "kitchen". I may have the name a little off but hopefully this get you going. Also, it's main purpose is building roms, etc, but it does do the feature you need!

[Q] assert failed: write_raw_image("tmp/boot.img","boot")

i believe this question is asked before, but the search function is not working at the moment.
I am using a Incredible S with S-OFF, installed with a custom recovery that confirm working with some other rom.
i decided to make one rom my self, i setup the Kitchen enviroment, and extracted the official RUU follow the tutorial, everything goes fine.
until i copied it to my SD card and trying to flash, i will get the following messsage
assert failed: write_raw_image("tmp/boot.img","boot")
can anyone help me? i had tried different setting for and make about 10 rom but all return the same message.
thank you.

The same problem happened on the myTouch 4G but works with this:
package_extract_file("boot.img", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p22");
Let us know if it works...
You can send the "update-script" to me,then let me give a look.

Maybe it is this:"write_raw_image tmp/boot.img boot"

No .... that is wrong syntax. Won't even work in an update-script. For the Incredible S you need an updater-script (not update-script). Commands are followed by parentheses, with each parameter followed by a comma, and then a semi-colon at the very end. Run the kitchen on your ROM to get the proper syntax.
Anyways, nothing can be done at this point unless the original poster provides more detail, like at least posting his updater-script.
I'm no developer but I believe it should be write_raw_image BOOT:boot.img
Correct me if I'm wrong

That's correct syntax, but it doesn't work on newer htc devices because of the new filesystem formats. Boot.img has to be copied to /tmp folder before it can be flashed to device. You have to use updater-script to accomplish that.

I never had any issues using

write_raw_image("/tmp/boot.img", "boot"),
delete("/tmp/boot.img"));
in my updater-script for Incredible S.

Status 7 usually means you are using the wrong update-binary.

For us that know little can you elaborate and what that means exactly?
Per your previous answer I tried using an updater based on other devs work and I still get the same error on my g2.
I just wanted to add that I do run the error check and it says the update binary fine. No errors.

Update-binary is not the update-script.
The update-binary file is supposed to be included with the updater-script and contains all the command implementations that are used in the script... however there are three main types of update-binary and you have to know which one to include. They are mostly differentiated by the number of parameters supported for the 'mount' command for your updater-script.
All I the roms I have made have both the update and updater scripts included. That's why I'm stumped. I am using the leaked gb rom for g2. Oh well. Thank you for everything.
I'm gonna try to do and root the boot.img myself. Decompile and compile.

On your G2 you should have only an update-script in the ROM, or else the two other files (updater-script and update-binary), not both at the same time. The updater-script is a more advanced script than the update-script yet very similar.
The new versions of ClockworkMod only support the updater-script + update-binary however.

This is why the roms have both. I have not come across a single htc vision rom that only has an update-binary in it. They all have both

Update.
I just wanted to add that I have tried countless times to make a rom. I check that update script has no error and still I get the same error.
The weird thing is if I use a custom rom from one of the devs that does boot and I use the kitchen to go from edify to amend and then try to
convert it back later after I have made changes using the kitchen it wont boot and results in same write error.
Has anyone been able to make a bootable vision rom using the kitchen? If you have can you tell me where I can look or can you give me some answers. Yes I have checked google. No luck. Thanks
Im almost ready to give up.
I did make one rom that booted up and worked fine. Except when i went thru the steps to make the zip I removed the updater-script and update-binary created by the kitchen and replaced them with the udpater-script and update binary from one of the dev roms I use. This is the only way I have gotten a rom to flash and boot.
Just a thought. I know you said the htc vision is supported but would adding an edify_def for it help solve the problem?

[Ready to DONATE][Q] How to manually deodex Email.apk and Mobileprint.apk

I found many threads of people who can't deodex Email.apk, Mobileprint.apk, even manualy, including every .jar in the baksmali.jar -c: xxxx.
Is there a Dev who could give us the command line to succesfully deodex Email.odex and Mobileprint.odex ?
Thanks
Edit 06/30/2011 : I am ready to donate for the help you could give me
Found the same threads you did.. I am researching this as well.. Will keep you updated if I find anything.
U don't need to deodex the whole rom, though you will need to deodex the whole framework.

i wana know this tooo
If ur not changing anything in the BOOTCLASSPATH files, u can deodex a single file
-app for eg.-, edit it and put it into ur device without deodexing anything else, delete the existing odex file.
u'll need baksmali for that purpose-apktool donot have that feature btw-also u'v to have framework files available (just pull the entire framework directory from the phone) pass it's directory via the -d option. App depends on particular jar files will require that through -c option.

That's the problem, even with the entire framework directory, I am not able to deodex Email.apk and Mobileprint.apk . Seems like if missing Bootclasspath ...
No problem manualy deodexing every other apks ..
I tried to deodex both of these files with omrij's tool and it was successfull.

I wonder if it ignores certain errors. If i use baksmali with the -I option, i can get deodexed output, But obviously the APK won't work.

Deodexing is not my favorite stuff I do it for my personal use at times, I use my own set of scripts on linux with custom bootclasspaths.
Would recommend to have a look here: http://code.google.com/p/smali/wiki/DeodexInstructions

I also wrote my own deodexing bash script with baksmali/smali/zip. The thing is, Those two APK request java libraries to deodex (java.awt.* and javax.swing.*). I could't find anywhere to get those dependencies from, So if you could share which boot classes you used for satisfying those requirements, it would be great.
Thanks!

I have found out how you do it, by checking my bash logs way back
Just use the -I ignore flag on the command, along with regular bootclasspath.
The errors are not an issue and the apps work fine.
Enjoy.

Does Dsixda's ROM Kitchen work with Galaxy S3?

I've been wanting to try the kitchen out to see if I can try deodexing and zipaligning etc on the stock touchwiz ROM I'm running.
Do you think it would work? (despite it being discontinued)
yes it works still, works on ics & jellybean (i use it myself to deodex and zipalign)

Yes dxixda kitchen works but you will need to add another file with gs3 parameters in the edify_defs folder with name m0..still the updater-script does not work . It gives me errors in the installing boot.img stage.. . Anyways you can use the kitchen to create your rom and then package your rom manually using updater-script and update-binary from some other working rom.. Then sign it..
If you or anyone finds a solution to that problem do let us know..

Deodexing will work just fine..no probs..some times you might get an error with one or two apps..just use the option to deodex a single app and you will be good to go..
:good:
Edit:
Most important change the api level to 16 before deodexing..
just make a copy of your zipped rom, drop it into the working folder, deodex the files you want to and then pull those files out of the working folder and drop them into the original rom zip folder (minus the original odexed files)
no need to change anything, no need to drop new files in or mess with update script
as you will use your existing update script/meta inf folder blah blah blah, it means you can say yes to the mods the kitchen wants to make as you will only be taking the deodexed files from there, nothing else
(does that make sense? - im guessing you will ignore this anyway like my previous post))

Sorry for dragging out an old thread but I thought I would have a go with this. I have the kitchen installed, I have put I9300XXDLI5_I9300OXADLI5_I9300XXDLI5_BTU.zip in the original_update and have the m0 file in tools/edify_defs
I then try and extract the ROM but I get an error Error: No system folder found!

Have a look at a working updater-script and you will see a huge difference
For example you need a command like

More set perms and mounting/unmounting system. Please check out a "real" updater-script :good:

You can't just put the zip file in original_update. Kitchen has to be configured for your device, or it will not work. I'd like to know how to do that as well.

OK then, if it isn't necessary to configure the kitchen for your device, then how can you make it work with your device? I am just a NOOB, let's make that perfectly clear. However, I followed the directions to the letter, and read up on the kitchen before trying it. I had no success using the kitchen to create a rom that I could successfully flash.
I thought that I would have to do something with the edify defs files first, adding my device before it would work. I just never got that far yet (I only play with this part time, when I have a chance to do so.) If I don't have to add my device, and you have some idea what I may have done wrong, please enlighten me. I obviously need the help. Thanks!

You put any custom ROM for your device in there, configure it for that file (meaning that show it the file you're working on), replace it's system folder with the stock deodexed system folder.
Now, you're ready. Do your modifications. Add features. Build. Zip
Now, the important part.
Kitchen updater-script doesn't work on our device in some case. Use any custom ROM updater-script (with permission and credit), and voila!
There is a complete guide on it in Development section too.

I have tried the kitchen with my phone before, (LG Spectrum/VS920), and the ROMS generated by it will not work. It has something to do with the "edify defs" file I believe. I read it somewhere before in these forums. If your device isn't supported, it has to be added, or at least that's what I've come to understand. If someone can point me in the right directrion (adding my phone so it is supported by the kitchen), I'd appreciate it greatly.

Only thing is that it's updater-script doesn't work
You have to add yours

That's all? Just add that and it will work? OK, I'll give it a try. Thanks.
