[Q] help cooking mods into a ROM

-Happy Feet- · Oct 29, 2012

Hello ,

I want to cook an Battery percent mod from Jotha and an Advanced Power Menu into my own custom ROM.

Every time I try it the systemui file don't work. I have no statusbar and no notfication area.

Must I place from the original SystemUI.apk the META-INF folder and the recourse.rsc?? Into the modded files and then cook it?

I don't know why it won't work. It's the same base 2.17.40.2

Thanks in Advanced

Greets Lars

after editing replace the method with this

Code:

.method static compareSignatures([Landroid/content/pm/Signature;[Landroid/content/pm/Signature;)I
    .locals 7

    const/4 v0, 0x0

    return v0
.end method

it works....

i hope now i can cook the Mods....

it wont work.

All modded system files would not work (framework-res.apk android.policy.jar and SystemUI.apk).

..every beginning is difficult (-:

my tip: ask a dev if you are allowed to take his rom as base and do some so called "zip modding".

Would be helpful though if you could simply post a logcat here.

With my old Desire HD it was easier.

I think I ask anyone for permission to use his rom as base.
The other thinks with dsxda Kitchen is no problem. Mods like init.d scripts or build.prop mods are very easy ...the only problem are the mods from Jotha.

I have try also take the res and assets and the recourse.res from the mod into old systemUI.apk but nothing ...

But I want to know why it want work....

deodex the rom, remove signature check, push the systemui.apk from jotha and it should work....
No idea what you are trying to do with taking the assets folder and the ressources.arsc from the SystemUI.apk.
You are doing definatly something wrong.

And as already said, taking a logcat after the systemui force closes would help.
If you dont know how to pull a logcat, you shouldnt build a rom.

-Happy Feet- · Oct 31, 2012

Sure i know how to pull a logcat.
Tomorrow the next try.

sooo i have read out the Logcat.

E/PackageParser( (286): : Package com.android.systemui has no certificates at entry AndroidManifest.xml; ignoring!

The SystemUI.apk was ignored , the signaturecheck was failed.
I think i have compile and recompile the services.jar with the wrong Tool.

Thanks again for your help

edited and compile and recompile with Virtuous Ten Studio, now it works
