Here is my little flashable zip. It contains the line:
package_extract_dir("system", "/system");
But the files are not copied. What have I done wrong?

I'm not familiar with these scripts. But probably it's a mounting problem. I suggest you to see a script of a rom and compare with it.

Hi
May i seek help to resolve this issue?
I created a rom by modifying on the phone and extracting the system folder using adb. Then I drag the system folder to a pre-existing rom zip. I tried to flash using cwm successfully but it just stuck at at the android logo. Many thanks for assistance.
Terry
it wasnt as simple as copy and paste, drag and drop like that.
u need to consider many thing. even one library missing or mismatched with the updater script in the zip file, it wont boot.
Oh ic.. so I have to modify the updater-script?

Technically , there's more than just editing the updater-script .
But at a basic level , yes .

you can extract apks on a phone and view the files inside (rename to .zip and extract) unless you mean something else

Just take one of the themes already in this section, remove all of the apk's in it, and add your own.
Though, I'd recommend learning how to make your own updater script, it's good practice, tutorials all over XDA.

Then make folder where that .so fille will go. Example /system/lib. So where file is in that zip, it will be copied in root of phone.

I agree with you but some scripts are formatting folders.

U used this one, it just mounts system partition. Do not format anything. Here is updater script:
Code:
mount("ext4", "EMMC", "/dev/block/mmcblk0p3", "/system");
ui_print("Flashing generic zip");
package_extract_dir("system", "/system");
unmount("/system");
You just make folders in system folder where you want files to be flashed. Like system/framework, system/app, system\lib, etc...

By flashable zip do you mean the firmware I flashed??
Basically META-inf is a folder which contained sign data ,update binary and update script ,which is found only on flashable zip. It can be also be presented in apks.

Sorry im a dumb newb but I still dont understand where is the folder I have checked my .md5 firmware file but it didnt have that folder!
When you flash a custom rom, it comes as a zip file. The folder you are talking about is what makes that zip file flashable. It contains scripts that control what recovery does with the contents of the zip
You admitted to being new to this in your other thread. Can I suggest that whatever you're hoping to achieve by modifying scripts might be a bit advanced for you at this stage

Take a nandroid backup before flashing that zip via recovery

thx man!!
I have been wondering which phones generally use update-script [amend format]. I have seen may updater-script but no update-script. Can anyone give an example phone which uses update-script?
