1.6 finally!

Some of the testers are reporting errors with the new modes, but changing storage location seem to be working quit good. I will be writing a tutorial on how to properly use all the new modes. Regardless, this new version requires Busybox for app mode, and back up mode. It must be installed on /system/xbin << same location used by cm7 and cm9. I will be releasing a new version tomorrow or Thursday, to fix some of the new mode woes.

Again, sorry for the inconvenience.

You sure about that because the screenshots do look like the application. The only difference we get a news feed from the website to see what's new in the changelog.

Just dl'd and made my first Fruit Cake. :) I followed tutorial and used backup mode.

When I tried to flash the zip, I got "E:Error in /sdcard/fcm/fcm-12-26-2012-02-07.zip (Status 6) Installation aborted" :(

I'm also seeing a few other minor issues.

  1. Pressing the Back button doesn't take me out of the program
  2. Pressing "Exit" takes me to the Preferences screen
  3. Pressing "Storage" brings up "Change the developers name:" an displays "null"
  4. Editing "Dev Name" or "Rom Name" doesn't seem to stick, reopening shows default names
  5. No confirmation dialog when selecting "Advanced", "Apps" or "Backup" modes
  6. Version information unavailable

Maybe it's just my setup, but reporting just in case others are having same. Tried to submit at project home but link is down.

Edit: At first glance the app doesn't seem to match the screenshots but it's only because the first couple are of a tablet and also the text is white on a dark background and at least on my device it shows up black text on white background. This may be due to an "inverted settings" mod in my rom.

I will take a look and run this, see if i can come up with the errors. Now the color of the app is white and black. As i said earlier on the week i had issues with market. nothing was updating, so i need to get on uploading the new images. For back up mode you require busybox, installed to a different location than the one is used regularly. Im off from work today. I just finished my app for blackberry playbook. Ima jump on this right now.

Awesom.
I have busybox in system/xbin and system/bin as well, they are both 1.06MB 01 Aug 08 08:00:00. Let me know if i can help by getting a logcat or anything.

I noticed also that when I start another fruitcake, it says "Reseting. Please wait" but when it's done, fcm doesn't start automatically. I have to click "Creat Fruit Cake" once again.

I am really liking this as a backup solution. Thank you for your vision and work. :cool:

Found this at http://fcm.x10.mx/joomla/index.php

"v1.6.1.9 Bug Crushing Machine

This version comes equip with a ton of bug fixes. Some new and some overdue. Just to name a few.

EULA and First Install fixed. Now you can create normal ROMs again.
Back button will now do just that, go back. But only if the Application is not creating a rom.
The search key now will display a context menu with links for various ROM Factory sites. Portal, forum, bug tracker, github.
etc etc...
It's already on the market!"

But... market reports v1.6.1.5 is still the current version! :confused: Anyone have a link to v1.6.1.9 ?

    Release Notes
    (Located on the [3rd]third post)
    WARNING:
    This application is distributed as is. I do massive testing to make sure this application works correctly; but the possibility of device damage always exist. This is true to anything you do with your device. I am not responsible for any or all the damage this may/could cause your device.
    26
    INSTRUCTIONS:
    Before you begin, make sure your device is supported, and the device is rooted.

    1. Download and install the application.

    2. To create the ROM press the "Create a ROM" button on the main tab of the application.

    3. To install the ROM created, simply go into CWM and install it like any other.
    F.A.Q.
    What is ROM Factory?
    Its a tool that will allow the user to create a picture perfect .img from your boot and system partition. It will then create an update.zip from it.
    What is a "Fruit Cake"?
    A fruit cake is the finish product, a self contain rom, already ready for installation, already inside an update.zip.
    So really what does it do?
    It allows a bootloader unlocked user to create a full copy of their boot and system partition. All of it, including mods and changes done to either one of those partitions.
    Can this be use for easier rom development?
    Yes! Beyond just its normal capabilities! After installing the resources you can modify the script and add things to it in *sdcard* /fcm/workdir! Once you are done adding and changing things in there, press "Create ROM".​

    1.6 - The update that took a month. Will be release today. This will be amazing. I'm just waiting on testers.

    Advance Mode
    Apps Mode
    Back Up Mode

    New look

    Open Source components

    New site, new forums, new devices.

    The update will be made available late tonight or early tomorrow. Depends on how tire I am after i get off work.

    We are alive and kicking. Since release, Fruit Cake Maker has been downloaded 1,956 times. We are 556 active developers. A total of 12 bugs have been crushed. We currently work on 20+ devices and devices variants.

    Nightlys and experimental.

    Starting Feb 1st or 2nd. My build bot will begin auto compiling nightlys for those who want to experiment with the latest changes. Nightlys will be compile each night and made available no later than midnight.

    An experimental build will begin to be compile mid Feb. the build will be compile every friday at 6pm. The experimental build will feture a different preference screen, and will require the user to specify all the variables. ie: boot location, system location, storage, mode. so on. This build aims at enthusiast who wish to use the tool on a non supported device.

    FCM now has requirements. Busybox must be installed to use the back up mode.

    Thank guys for your support.
