You need to make sure the updater script is set to install apps into data/app

So correct me if im wrong but you add Netflix.Apk and update and set updater script to install it

From my understanding yes. A developer would more likely to give you specifics, but the updater script is what tells recovery what to do. Depending on how/what you are using to make your rom you might be able to add it to the script automatically. I know disxda kitchen gives you the option to do so.

[How To] Implement Z-OC into stock ROM

BEFORE I START: ALL CREDITS TO Z FOR HIS AMAZING WORK AND FOR HIM CHOOSING TO STAY. THANK YOU Z
FOR ADVANCED USERS.
USE ROOT EXPLORER TO COPY AND PASTE OR MOVE THE FILES NEEDED AND SET PERMISSIONS
Hi Guys. I know some of you are probably wanting OC in your ROM and might not want to wait for someone to implement it in there ROM or maybe you don't want to flash a ROM but just want the OC.
Well i am going to tell you how to get Z-OC in your phone. There are some thing you will need to remember and that is that this can be dangerous if you don't know what you are doing.
PLEASE NOTE: I AM IN NO WAY RESPONSIBLE IF YOU TURN YOUR PHONE INTO A PAPER WEIHGT OR TURN IT INTO A BRICK FOR A REPLACEMENT FOR YOUR WALL.
Here is what to do:
You will need the files at the bottom of this post and extract them.
For permissions. O means tick, X means leave unticked.
1. Place the install-recovery.sh file in system/ect/ and set permissions to:
ooo
oxo
oxo
2. Place these 3 files: zdzihu_oc.ko/ar6000.ko/tun.ko in system/lib/modules and set the permissions to:
oox
oxx
oxx
3. Go back to the install-recovery.sh file and select it and then select execute.
4. Reboot and enjoy
PLEASE NOTE: ONLY LOOK AND CHANGE THE CPU SPEED USING CPU MASTER. DO NOT TRY CHANGIING THE CLOCK SPEED WITH OTHER CPU APPS LIKE SET CPU OR YOU WILL LOSE THE 1113MHZ SPEED AND YOU WILL NEED TO GO BACK TO INSTALL-RECOVERY.SH AND EXECUTE AGAIN.
Awesome. Thank u so much

That's what the ar6000.ko is. Don't delete the original as I have not done that and my WiFi is fine. Also I need to add this to the op but everytime you reboot the phone you need to set the CPU again.

What does invoke mean?
EDIT: just searched it and yes still add it just in case you need to. You can always try without it and let me know or just stay on the safe side and add it. If I have time in a bit I will try without it as I think that the ar6000.ko is actually something to do with CM find coz if I remember rightly the CM kernels or gingerbread kernels had the ar6000.ko WiFi module and the 2.2 or 2.1 kernels had a different one but don't quote me on that one

Correct me if I wrong, but for OC feature you need zdzihu_oc.ko only, others does nothing with OC.
Indeed, i am using terminal and insmod zdzihu_oc.ko and everything is fine...

If it is the case only the z oc module is need then I will delete others but if I remember rightly the CM roms needed the ar6000.ko file for the WiFi to work and the tun.ko is a module for the CPU speeds to run by. Eg like CPU governer ect..... Correct me if I'm wrong but there must be reason they are there also the install-recovery.sh file has a lot of coding unlike the fps uncap one as where the one I added in this thread has a hell of a lot more also to do with the CPU governer.

I have tried to make an update zip also but if you try flashing this with a ROM with tweaks you will lose all the tweaks like with wolfs ROM. It is best to do it this way so you don't have the risk of something going wrong and also I get the same error with my zip and I used the update zip program to make it which set perms and signed and zips but still no go.

Lost root?

Rooted last night. Flashed the stock, deodexed Rom, Flashed a couple of mods like the camera mod, transparent Rosie, and the 50 gb dropbox mod. I used root explorer last night and it asked for root permission, now today it says I have to root permission. Any of these mods break root?

anyone?
Ok...a little more information here. I flash FactoryRom debloat final, I have root..when I flash transparent rosie I have no root.... When on FactoryRom final, I open root explorer it asks for root permission I allow it and I can access system files. After I flash the transparent rosie mod, when I open root explorer it says and I try to open a system folder it says my phone isn't rooted and it doesn't ask for root permissions.
Do you have a modified kernel?
i haven't flashed anything seperately, just whatever kernel came with factory rom
That's why, you need a custom kernel

Well as soon as I said that, I got it working, but I had to reflash the supersu and busybox zip then download supersu from the market, but all is well now
I just hope I don't have to do that every time I flash a mod.

You only have to do that if you go stock
You're still going to have to have custom kernel for actual root

Go to sammobile.com and search for gt-i5500 ROM's. You'll get all the stock ROM's you need. For gingerbread, use cyanogenmod 7.

Can I ask why you wouldn't just download a custom rom? You're making a lot of work for yourself by building on stock... CyanogenMod is stable now by the way and everything works so I don't see why you need to mod stock?
To be honest stock roms work best on this device I only have to edit and tweak a few things and add some scripts the hardest part for me will be the theme side of things and I can also port so I just want to try and make a good rom with no bugs with good performance without a rom that's already been modded

Your script is checking for a different device in your build.prop add a safety precaution.
You need to edit it to church for this device.

Is there any way to get all apps in multi window on a stock Rom?

I'm stock mkd rooted w/ twrp and unlocked currently odex but I can go deodex.
When I had the note 2 they had a flashable zip that made all apps available on multi window. I was wondering if there it's anything like that for our phone

Yes. Look for the All Apps Multiwindow mod, or install a ROM that has it included already. I also believe you can enable it with 3minit or Nottach frameworks as well.

If all else fails manually do it by editing system/csc/feature.xml and add the lines below at the end. You have to manually add the apps you want in there and separate with a comma just as shown below for the browser.
<!-- Multi Window -->
<CscFeature_MultiWindow_AddOnApp>com.android.browser,</CscFeature_MultiWindow_AddOnApp>
</FeatureSet>
