Hi... I am trying to cook my rom with DSIXDA cygwin
but when I Build Rom and try flashing it with CWM:
first try flashing
1. ROM I get the error "mount expects 4 args got 3
ok I know what it means...
so I copy 'mtd-update-binary' to /META-INF/com/google/android as "update-binary".
2nd try flashing
I got Error Status 0
so I copy 'emmc-update-binary' to /META-INF/com/google/android as "update-binary".
3rd try flashing
I got error status 7
try copy another file and rename it to update binary
4th try flashing
error status 7
or maybe my updater scipt is wrong
I really dont have a clue right now...
Rebuild your updater script....and if you cooking a stock rom.....
U shouldn't need to change the updater-script.....oh and if your using the kitchen....use the check for update-script errors (you need to convert edify to amend first)
Edit: and if your getting status 7....that is an issue with system/build.prop and status 0 is you didn't sign correctly

I think you got the first thing itself wrong.
Btw, which device?
Checking the updater-script:
You neee to input four arguments here perhaps:
mount("MTD", "userdata", "/data");

Yeah I am trying to cook a stock rom... usually I used the stockrom updater script... but now I am trying to add /data/app functionality and add /etc/init.d script support... I guess my stockrom updater scrpt is no longer valid... isn't it

LG optimus black...
in previous (that works) updater script i thinks it's an EMMC
Maybe not "userdata" , but probably "dev/block/*insert data partition number code here*"
Herpderp Defy.
guys I think I solved the problems
I change this following script:
from:
mount("MTD", "userdata", "/data");
to:
mount("ext4", "EMMC", "userdata", "/data");
and from:
mount("MTD", "system", "/system");
to
mount("ext4", "EMMC", "system", "/system");
and delete
assert(package_extract_file("boot.img", "/tmp/boot.img"),
write_raw_image("/tmp/boot.img", "boot"),
delete("/tmp/boot.img"));
I hope it works fine...

Hey - I'm looking for a stock, unrooted image of the original BN software. I'd like to restore the image via CWM as mine is screwed up with GApps - a factory reset does not get rid of it.
Thanks!
Just for the gapps there is no need to flash images. btw you don't mention for what model if 8GB or 16GB.
Here's a trick that might work... the gapps zip (most of well done zips) contains a script named updater-script within META-INF >> com >> google >> android >> updater-script which contains the following code:
* Uncompress the gapps zip e.g: gapps-gb-20110828-signed.zip in another folder to get access to updater-script file
ui_print("GApps 20110828");
ui_print(" For Android 2.3.5");
ui_print("Mounting system...");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/system");
show_progress(1, 15);
ui_print("Deleting old APKs...");
delete("/system/app/Books.apk",
"/system/app/BooksPhone.apk",
"/system/app/CarHomeLauncher.apk",
"/system/app/CarHomeGoogle.apk",
"/system/app/FOTAKill.apk",
"/system/app/GenieWidget.apk",
"/system/app/Gmail.apk",
"/system/app/GoogleBackupTransport.apk",
"/system/app/GoogleCalendarSyncAdapter.apk",
"/system/app/GoogleContactsSyncAdapter.apk",
"/system/app/GoogleFeedback.apk",
"/system/app/GooglePartnerSetup.apk",
"/system/app/GoogleQuickSearchBox.apk",
"/system/app/GoogleServicesFramework.apk",
"/system/app/googlevoice.apk",
"/system/app/kickback.apk",
"/system/app/LatinImeTutorial.apk",
"/system/app/Maps.apk",
"/system/app/MarketUpdater.apk",
"/system/app/MediaUploader.apk",
"/system/app/NetworkLocation.apk",
"/system/app/OneTimeInitializer.apk",
"/system/app/SetupWizard.apk",
"/system/app/Provision.apk",
"/system/app/QuickSearchBox.apk",
"/system/app/soundback.apk",
"/system/app/Street.apk",
"/system/app/Talk.apk",
"/system/app/Talk2.apk",
"/system/app/talkback.apk",
"/system/app/Vending.apk",
"/system/app/VoiceSearch.apk",
"/system/app/YouTube.apk",

"/system/framework/com.google.android.maps.jar",
"/system/lib/libmicrobes_jni.so",
"/system/lib/libtalk_jni.so",
"/system/lib/libvoicesearch.so");
ui_print("Copying new APKs...");
package_extract_dir("system", "/system");
ui_print("Unmounting system...");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "umount", "/system");
ui_print("Installation complete!");
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
You could modify it with Notepad or Notepad++(Highly recommended) and for example remove the line "/system/app/YouTube.apk", if you have it installed and don't want the script "delete" it because it is under ui_print("Deleting old APKs..."); section so it will delete all the apps stated after that piece of code.
Then you could remove this part:
ui_print("Copying new APKs...");
package_extract_dir("system", "/system");
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Because you are modifying the code to be your uninstaller so no apk's will be installed. Once done save changes and replace the original file with your modified by drag and dropping it while you have gapps-gb-20110828-signed.zip opened with WinRAR or 7ZIP.
One more and obvious thing is that you must delete the system folder of the gapps-gb-20110828-signed.zip file or leave the system folder empty (probably is better to keep system folder but empty)

I think I fixed the issue, but I'd like to see the rest of your post
PS - 16GB
[EDIT] Ok, I totally fixed it thanks to a couple of users! Here's what I did:
I used cobrato's 1.4.1 zip which I flashed via CWM - this got rid of the Google Setup Wizard, but added extras I did not want. Then I used Indirects One Click Unroot, which performed a factory software install. So now I'm back to 1.4.2 and COMPLETELY stock.
Time to back up this image! That being said, I would sure help some folks if we had totally stock, unrooted images that can be installed via CWM.
Finished my post...

Hello XDA people,
I'm trying to make a zip file which can be flashed through CWM. The zip file will include:
Code:
a batch of apps in the /system/app folder
The purpose of this zip is to quick install a bunch of apps after installing a new rom.
I'm guessing that simply drag dropping a bunch of apps inside the system/app zip folder will be enough, right?
The problem is that i don't have a dummy flashable zip file to work with. Can someone please help with this?
ps: i've tried app2zip from market, it doesn't work on s5360
its easy,but system partition have a size limit
i've tried making it but keep getting a "status 0 aborted" error.
What is the system size limit?
Will it help if i delete some big apps from system like maps and swype? I already have almost 50mb free on sys partition.
Can you give me the dummy file to test. preferably both for /data/app and /system/app

you need to sign the zip via zip signer (search in themes and apps) and write an updator script (google it)
i dont think size matters much because many rom zips contain only a /system folder
system folder has only 1limitation
the total memory is 222 mb so be carefull about that
your apps should not exceed this size
I got it working... Here is the code for anyone who needs it... found @ META-INF\com\google\android\updater-script file
Code:
ui_print("Partitions mount");
#Properly unmounting to avoid issues
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "umount", "/system");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "umount", "/cache");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "umount", "/data");
#Then mounting
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/system");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/cache");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/data");
ui_print("System folder application installation");
package_extract_dir("system", "/system");
ui_print("Unmounting partitions");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "umount", "/system");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "umount", "/cache");
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "umount", "/data");
ui_print("Finish");
With this code, anyone can load multiple apps from flash in 5 seconds.
There's another problem. While installing apps @ system/app works fine with the above script, a different script for installing apps @ data/app doesn't work at all. I have created a thread for this issue at the following link below:

I think its better to make a backup using CWM and restore only data.
copy the zip from my signature (stock deadexed)
its for flashing bunch of apps to our device

Hi, thank you for this Guide...
I have some questions...
If i want to update e.g. Google Play app with this script, how should I name the file? In my phone /system/apk/ is Phonesky.apk and you wrote that the name of the application should be com.SOMETHING, in this case com.android.vending.
And my second question is, can i delete unwanted apps? What i need to add to script?
Thank You

What copy as is? What no need?
So name should be Phonesky.apk, and app will be replaced, right?
I want to delete unwanted apps... Therefore, I ask if you can advise me what to embed to script.

Hello guys! Hope you can help me with this.
I want to include some apps in my rom, but this app CANT be in the normal /system/app I want that they install as usar app every time i flash. It upose -i read it- that i should create a folder called "data" in the Root of my ROM. So i will have 3 folders: /META-INF/ /system/ and /data/
Along with this i have to edit with notepad++ the updater-script in the directory META-INF\com\google\android and add just below the line package_extract_dir("system", "/system"); the following:
format("yaffs2", "MTD", "userdata");
mount("yaffs2", "MTD", "userdata", "/data");
package_extract_dir("data", "/data");
set_perm(1000, 1000, 0771, "/data");
set_perm_recursive(1000, 1000, 0771, 0644, "/data/app");

Hello guys! Hope you can help me with this.
I want to include some apps in my rom, but this app CANT be in the normal /system/app I want that they install as usar app every time i flash. It upose -i read it- that i should create a folder called "data" in the Root of my ROM. So i will have 3 folders: /META-INF/ /system/ and /data/
Along with this i have to edit with notepad++ the updater-script in the directory META-INF\com\google\android and add just below the line package_extract_dir("system", "/system"); the following:
format("yaffs2", "MTD", "userdata");
mount("yaffs2", "MTD", "userdata", "/data");
package_extract_dir("data", "/data");
set_perm(1000, 1000, 0771, "/data");
set_perm_recursive(1000, 1000, 0771, 0644, "/data/app");
And save the file. So i just have to put the .apk files in the /data/ and they will appear like *****in' magic every time i flash... But no, is not working .
Where is the error or what is the right wat to do it? Thanks

If you want the app to be a system app, have you tried extracting the library files in the .apk? Open the .apk using WinRAR (an .apk is real
y like a .zip file) and open the folder 'lib' (if there is one). The folder within should be called something like 'armv7a' or 'armv6'. If your device is an ARMv6 device (search it up) the app may be incompatible with your device if there is no matching 'armv6' folder. If there is, open the folder and extract the .so file(s) and put them under /system/lib/ on your device, either with a root file browser, or with a .zip via CWM, Anyways, what app are you trying to install
?

Thanks for reply, but I already know that and already did it. Due to my phone have REALLY little rom memory. So my dream was to allow some apps to be instaled along with the rom.zip but as a user app. Im sick and tired already have almost a week like 6 hours day making my mod of a rom and now that is ready and sexy i cant "transfer the data folder from de rom.zip to data. Thanks for replay.
Have you looked into dsixda's kitchen? It will load your ROM and add in the bits needed to do what you want. The only downside is it isn't really updated anymore. You could also find a mod that flashes user apps in your phone's respective forum, then open it up and look at the updater-script.

Now here I am with identical problem. In my case,
A. There is no forum with other mods for the TV Stick I am coding.
B. Dxixda's Kitchen chocked up with the AMLOGIC Kernel and refused to help further.
So here's my problem that, I have been breaking my head on this for a week now.
I have a TV Stick with android ICS 4.0.4, and has "yafss2" format. I have attached the mountpoint info, partition info and my updater script.
I am trying to mount the /Data Partition so that I can copy a test APK to /Data/App folder for now. Eventually I need to copy other stuff like app data to /data/data.
Although edify script requires the format
mount(type, device, mountpoint);
I need to do
mount("yafss2","MTD", "/dev/block/mtdblock7", "/data");
for some reason, otherwise the AMLOGIC Recovery gives error of missing parameter.
Anyway, even after following that format, its not working.
The subsequent "package_extract_dir" operation is not successful and I can see the files are not getting copied.
I'd dearly appreciate any pointers and advice.
may be you should set the permission on the /data instead of on the /system/app in you updater script.
hope this can help....

I should have commented out that statement. I realized it after I posted. No it doesn't really matter anyway. The files didn't get copied to there's no permissions to set.
