Is it possible to make a flammable zip to incorporate settings options from one Rom to another?

Flashable

No. That would cause nothing but issues that you would not like.
There use to be a build prop script file that tweaks certain background processes. But can't remember the name.

Thanks for the response
I am running windows could any one point me to a program or programs that would help me accomplish adding in the extra settings id like to add not replace if that helps

The problem with this goal (I wish you could do it) is the files that settings are stored in vary from rom to rom. So copying a file for example named phone_settings.xml that contains all your preferences and making a flashable package of all those xml files, then flashing that set of files in another rom where the file might be called phone_preferences.xml, the flash would fail. So unless every rom uses the exact same names this cannot be done.
What I was meaning with the second question is there a way to do it other than a flashable zip
Id like to have it like jelly bam is with the settings from other roms combined in one

As I explained, unless every file with your preferences would have to have the same files in the new rom. They usually don't. Its a good idea, it just can't happen.
Ok I thought you were talking about a zip not doing a complete build

Thanks I guess I'm just stuck hoping the dev will see fit to add those features in the future
Still would like to learn more and start doing a little cooking of my own

Ok guys I'm learning to theme. I have spent hours and hours making png's. All my files are named exactly as the ones they are replacing. Same size. Same format. I got it all together. Using apk manager & sdk manager. After recompressing everything and sending to the phone and flash. All I get is an eternal boot loop. Any ideas guys? I'm clueless. I followed instructions step by step I found in theming I've been back through my files and xda, Im unable to find the thread.

Its easier to use 7zip to open the apk as an archive and drag your hdpi files out, they'll be copied not extracted, make your changes to pangs and then drag back in.
Working with the xmls will require decompressing and can get a little more tricky but doing it the above way first or last will cut down on errors.

Thanks man. I've got about 12 hours invested so far...plan on a few more tonight trying the recommended method. I'm learning once you close a folder, DO NOT reopen it. You always find something else you can change. Who knows maybe this will be something I can share. (Depending on outcome) thanks again EB I will hit thanks when I get my kids off the PC.

Are you changing any png.9s that can cause alot of problems also if not done correctly.

After making a backup is safe to go back and rename the backup? I'm trying a few different roms and want some kind of a description of what the backup is.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1309703
always try go search or google first. I googled it and found it in 30 seconds.
I think this will help although I didn't read it. I always make a reference on a note file of what that backup is according to the date.

Just got off a midnight, to tired to think. Easy enough, thanks.
your fine renaming them as long as
you don't use spaces in the name

Just make a folder and name it whatever you want, then put the CWM file in it. That way you don't have to change the name of the CWM file.

I've tried google searches with my phone and computer and can't seem to find it,could someone post the a2sd killer zip and I'm guessing it has the same directions as any other flashable zip

Here's one, but possibly it needs to be specific for your device. Anyway, it's just a script. As long as you have a backup, you can flash whatever you like (within reason, of course).
Here it is mate
Has been working flawlessly for over 6 months for me
Flash it immediately after the ROM zip

Hello xda i have a galaxy note running PA on king kangers kernal and when i want install anything it wont let me select install when the menu pops. This started happening after I flashed cwm and then flashing back to twrp because i didnt like cwm.. at first I thought it was that part of the screen that wasn't responding but it responds fine to any other finger press in the lower right corner... what's wrong?? Thanks in advance for help.

I run into that issue too off and on, I'm curious about the response too. I assume you're referring to side loads, do you get any issues trying to install anything from the market?

Marketplace works just fine. just outside sources are and I have that checked...

Drop the apk in /data/app and reboot.
Drop it there and then install reboot or other way around??
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
Just paste it in.
May wanna fix permissions in recovery after, but just pasting it there should install it.
So it should be in the app drawer upon booting up.
OK I'll try that

Depending on the app,/apk it may require placing it in system/app folder.

Also... depending on the app there may be an accompanying lib file that needs to go in /system/lib
Didn't work. tried a new app and a update for an app and didn't work.. any other ideas??

What app and what steps did you take?

Download a game from outside source. Moved to the data/app via folder manager. Rebooted into recovery, fixed permissions then rebooted again

I am not sure of this thread is within the rules of the forum anymore...
If it's paid apps you're trying to download and pirate, no further help will be given here.
No lol not pirated apps... no outside sources is letting me download...

It's your rom ....(which one are you using)?
I've had a few like that ....and you need a different browser.
Download boat browser from the play store....and install it.....or use dolphin browser as well.
Then use TIBU to freeze your default browser then reboot.
You should get downloads after that....if not ....you may need a different build....
If using a touchwiz based rom, this problem will occur on occasion.
Post back up with your results ...g
I'm using latest PA. I'll try what you said and post back..

Where are these located so I can change them? Go locker didn't work for me. Thanks anyone.

\system\framework\framework-res.apk\res\raw-xhdpi\ (or similar - it is path for hdx7)
But you should know what you're doing exactly, otherwise you get bootloop.
So basically, make files or pictures the same name and or file size? I assume that'd be the protocol.

you need jpg with same name, size and resolution doesn't matter.
to properly replace file I recomend to you create update.zip with framework-res.apk and install it from safestrap. And hold update.zip with original one on sdcard for the possibility of recovery.
Think ill wait on this. I don't want to mess up what I have already done. LoL. Thanks!
