I have created a rom zip file with Archi Kitxhen and it Works well, the dir inside the zip file are:
/META-INF
/system
boot.img
I want to add /data/App and be able to fill up with apps that will be in /data/App automaticaly after flashing.
How can I do it manualy?
I tried Android Kitchen in Linux but my rom dont flash after using it
In /META-INF/com/google/android I have:
update-binary
updater-script
I want the Zip file to flash to contain
/Data/App
/META-INF
/system
boot.img
Thank you for the help

Hey everyone just thought that this info might be useful to the this community...
this info is already available, though in parts, over XDA forums.. so i thought that i will try n make it easily available/understandable to all users here...
seems this info is useful to other android users too... so will try and post generic as well as X10 specific info...
WARNING:
I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THE FILES THAT U CREATE USING THIS INFO
I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF U LOOSE UR DATA WHEN TRYING THIS OUT
REMEMBER THIS DEALS WITH SYSTEM MODIFICATIONS AND ANY WRONG COMMAND CAN RENDER UR CURRENT ROM UNUSABLE/BROKEN
SO BE SURE U CAN USE FLASHTOOL TO FLASH STOCK FW IF U END UP WITH UNUSABLE/BROKEN SYSTEM
DO NOT CIRCULATE THE UPDATE.ZIPs CREATED UNLESS U ARE CERTAIN THAT THEY WORK PROPERLY
ALSO DO NOT FLASH ANY RANDOM UPDATE.ZIP WHICH U DOWNLOAD UNLESS U CHECK OUT THE CODE WRITTEN IN THE UPDATE SCRIPT
now that i have scared u enough lets begin...
[BASICS]
there are two versions of update scripts (codes/syntax) which can be used:
Amend (update-script)
Edify (updater-script) [along with update-binary]
both of the above mentioned versions use different syntax...
both of these versions work on the recoveries currently available for x10 (xRecovery & FreeXperia Recovery)
ONLY EDIFY SYNTAX IS SUPPORTED BY xRecovery v1.0.0 (latest recovery for X10)
these files can be found in "\META-INF\com\google\android" of the zip package... depending on which file update-script OR updater-script is present in the update.zip u will understand which update scripts (codes/syntax) is to be used...
[SYNTAX | READING MATERIAL]
following are very useful guides which cover most of the available syntax...
Amend (update-script) by TylTru
Edify (updater-script) by coolexe
[WIP] How to Write an Updater-Script with Edify Code
UID and GIDs [related to setting proper permissions]
[IMP] info related to Edify for ROM makers
[PROGRAM | APPLICATION]
now that u follow the differences lets get the program to make update.zips and sign them...
Update.zip 2.0 Modifier/Creator by Daneshm90
its a windows only tool and i personally use it regularly to make update.zips
read through that post as it is pretty straight forward on how the application works... there is even a video... and it even signs the zip...
this program basically handles (modifies/creates) only Amend (update-script) but u can just place ur modified updater-script (along with the update-binary) in <ROOT_DIR_OF_PROGRAM>\placehere\META-INF\com\google\android\
and execute update.bat to make the update.zip package.... this program automatically signs the zip so u wont have any errors while flashing...

i will keep adding more to this as and when i get time...
till then happy reading the links posted here...
also if u have any queries/doubts feel free to post them here...

anantshri is working on Ubuntu Lucid CHROOT but the images are around 140 to 700 MB compressed and 3.5GB uncompressed... so as of now it doesnt make much sense to create update.zips for them... better option is to uncompress them on the PC and then place the extracted files on SDCARD (card reader/etc)...
thats wonderful...
Hi Doomlord,
thats a wonderful work..i mean thats a perfect explanation of creating update.zips...
another alternative, which i use frequently to update apps in system forlder only is..
go to titanium back up options and create update.zip
now select this update.zip from mounted SD card and then open it with 7zip or any zip editor.
then replace system/app forlder ->app to any app u want to install in system..
save and close the file. and u r good to go...
just an alternative which i personally found easy...but nothing to take away from your awsum thread here..keep the good work..thanks..

ah thats a nice idea to do it on the device itself!
u can even add specific files which need to be placed on other partitions (SYSTEM / DATA / SDCARD) when flashing it from recovery... though u will have to edit update-script for the recovery to copy those files..
Root Explorer:
1. Long press on folder you want to zip
2. Select Compress into .zip

hi! thank you!
i am sorry but even i dont know how to build a rom from sources... wht most chefs do is just mix files from various roms, using FreeX10 as base and then adding content from other roms (of other devices)
thank you DooMLoRD
ok great , but i need to know what is the important files should copy from Freex10 to other roms ?

have found a other methode for make a update.zip fast and easier!!
hi..
I have found a other methode for make a update.zip fast and easier!!
You can downloading a update.zip, whatever you want ... for example;
you downloaded update3.zip. open it with 7zip
in update3.zip> (you have 3 folders> data, META-INF, system)
is missing you as a path,
for example, because you want to update an audio fix .. can you just move the lib folder in System Folder.
if you want to update system apps, you can move the desired app in the System folder> app
framework-res> in system> framwork
the META-INF file from update3.zip should always be maintained.
It is important that you choose a update.zip,! Since the directories and systemlinks / already been set with the open-mentioned program are correct!
can not explain it better .. this method saves me a lot of time and is, I think the easiest way.

so u dont believe in setting permissions in the update.zip is it?
the most important thing is that u READ the update-script / updater-script PROPERLY before using any update.zip... and modify it for ur needs...
Create it in mnt since its a rootfs set perms rxrxrx Meta then set your perms 4 w.e else I'd getzipsigner 2 to make sure its right..

EXAMPLE FOR AMEND SCRIPTS (update-script)
from my experience (for X10 users only):
Edify scripts (updater-script) support copying to /tmp but Amend scripts (update-script) doesnt allow such a location... it only allows for SYSTEM, DATA, CACHE
the Edify scripts (updater-script) doesnt always work properly on our current recovery... better stick to Amend scripts (update-script)...
any programs that u want to run (which doesnt require additional files) place it at the root of ur packege
any programs that u want to run (which require additional files) place it at the /data/local/tmp folder of ur packege

what partition to place files in?: system
what folder within that partition?: app
what folder from this update.zip within placehere folder?: app
then I chose 6. set permissiions for file
what partition is the file located in?: system
what file within that partition?: app/astro.apk
UID ?: (I had no Idea what this is so I entered chmod number 644)
GID ?: (again have no idea so just pressed enter and skiped)

If you are just copying a file then do this. Create a folder "app" and place the apk inside it.
And use only this line in update-script to copy it to /system/app
Code:
copy_dir PACKAGE:app SYSTEM:app
I know it is not "ideal" but works for me and saves me some time. ( i am one of the most laziest persons you will ever meet)
Hi thanks for the reply
I just did it and its a no go for me
Cant mount system/app

actually i just use the update.zip creator to "pack" & sign the files...
once u have the files in place... just go to...
placehere\META-INF\com\google\android
and edit the update-script
if u have app in:
placehere\system\app\astro.apk
u just need
Code:
copy_dir PACKAGE:system SYSTEM:
once u finish editing the file
just run Script.bat
enter: n (do not clean previous files)
enter: 2 (create update.zip)
thats it!
a new file update.zip will be created in root folder of the program
@realunited no I don't do it manually
@Doom well dont know why but still not working....same error in recovery...cant mount system line1
Dont I need to set permissions cuz its in system?

Create a new folder called
Code:

int the root of your zip and add within that create a folder called

and add necessary files to that folder..
In your updater-script add the lines

cp /system/etc/ORS /cache/recovery/openrecoveryscript
cp /system/etc/theme.zip /sdcard/
reboot recovery
now how would i go about making a .apk file that you click on and does this?
or even give me a hand on integrating it in SecSettings.apk??
oh and i also have an init.d script that deletes the copied theme.zip for the sdcard!
thanks guys!!
