Please amarullz can you help me? i use sebastian15 rom 6.0.4.3!!

youo should know basic of this installer.
read 1st page.
here's the example from my rom:

aroma-config
Code:
selectbox(
      "Main Features",
      "Please select main features do you want to install",
      "@default",
      "mods.prop",
      "Kernel", "", 2,
         "kernel-20120224 <b>(default)</b>", "Stable cm7.2 kernel based on cm7.2 2012-02-24", 1,
          "kernel-20120309", "Experimental kernel", "0"
);

and on updater-script
Code:
if
  file_getprop("/tmp/aroma/mods.prop","selected.1") == "1"
then
    ui_print("@Installing kernell 20120224");
    assert(package_extract_file("kernel-20120224", "/tmp/boot.img"),
	  write_raw_image("/tmp/boot.img", "boot"),
	  delete("/tmp/boot.img"));
endif;

if
  file_getprop("/tmp/aroma/mods.prop","selected.1") == "2"
then
    ui_print("@Installing kernell 20120309");
    assert(package_extract_file("kernel-20120309", "/tmp/boot.img"),
	  write_raw_image("/tmp/boot.img", "boot"),
	  delete("/tmp/boot.img"));
    package_extract_file("extra/02gio", "/system/etc/init.d/02gio");
    set_perm(0, 0, 0755, "/system/etc/init.d");
endif;

問題是提示的錯誤那行字符是 );<--這個砍掉跟重新打上去 結果都是一樣!

那就是那行的上面,肯定多了标点(,)
你最好将你的aroma-config文件发上来,然后告诉我错误行,我帮你修改。。

English:
That's the done it, sure many punctuation (,)
You'd better keep your aroma-config files come on hair, and then tell me do wrong, I help you to change.

I found a problem:
Brushing machine if time is long not to choose" next ", and then click to click, only to take the battery, restart.

Edit:
Find the reason:
Delete: restotmp (" exec_demo / sleep"," sleep" );

Hey amarullz,

What about blinking screen on Moto RAZR?

Can you join the chat? It's hard to fix the problem in forum thread. I need someone to test it and report it directly after I modify the code, so I can fix the problems quickly... Many people already solved the problem when they chat with me. :D

Doesn't work for me. I think I'll have to dig into this issue
thx

hmm.. don't know why :confused:

    YOU DON'T NEED TO USE TOUCH RECOVERY TO MAKE THE TOUCH SCREEN WORKS
    If your Recovery Kernel include Touch Screen Driver, even if the recovery not supported touch screen, it will works.
    And Almost any recovery included touch screen driver in its kernel (Except some trimmed versions)


    -------------------------A-R-O-M-A---I-n-s-t-a-l-l-e-r-------------------------



    Benefits For Users

Sometimes we want the clean install, without bloatware; and sometimes we want the full set of applications on our device. With AROMA Installer, you are your phone's master!



    Benefits For Chefs/Developers
    AROMA Installer gives chefs many benefits:

    You don't ever again have to hear someone ask to remove or include something they like into your ROM, just for you to yell "Hey, that is only your opinion! Only you and some other people like it; most people don't! Go remove the apps on your own with WINRAR, you ^$#&*&#$", remember they are still a customer :cool:, and with AROMA Installer, this problem can be solved.

    If you are good at customizing the AROMA Installer it was possible to make your ROM compatible with many devices using just one ROM File. You save your time, bandwith and hosting maintanance.

    With the great user interface in your ROM installation, users will be very happy with it.

    * Optimized Build ( Static, -o2, remove unused functions, remove png-write and zlib deflate functions )
    [/LEFT]

    Open Source?
    There may be some people who will ask if the project is Open Source, and the quick answer is YES. It is an Open Source Project Now.

    Why Release The Source?
    • I used some other work (modified) from the Open Source Community, especially Koush's recovery source code for getting the input mode, PNG, ZLIB, and some Framebuffer programming samples.
    • I want to make all chefs feel safe, so I guarantee that I won't make this into a money making program.
    • I got something from the community, and I want to give something back to it.

    What Benefits?
    • Rapid development
    • I can get code review & patches - Not just bug reports
    • There are many innovations that I wrote in the program that may be useful for other needs, like the AROMA Graphic Framebuffer, the AROMA UI, the Amarullz Dithering Method, and the AROMA Simple PNG Fonts. It may be used in recovery, so recovery can use the AROMA Installer Interface
    • :cool: I can learn more about Open Sourcing programs (especially the CVS and licensing things - that always drive me to the question - what is it?)

    I Need Help
    As I said before, I am just a newbie at Android Development, or even as a user. I need someone who has a lot of knowledge about Open Sourcing the software, and a lot of knowledge about licencing (I don't know much, I just tried to make my software compatible with them: GPL, Apache, etc.)...

    Thanks.
    Source Code


    TOOLS: AROMA Key Capture
    I also created "aroma-keycapture-flashable.zip" to capture the keycodes of your device (flashable in recovery - won't flash anything :cool:). And in case the keys don't work, report the keycodes in this thread, with information like this example:


    Code:
    Prev Item/Up Key = 120
    Next Item/Up Key = 110
    Select Item/Enter/Select Key = 13
    Back Key = 200
    Menu Key = 193

    To customize keycodes, open aroma-config and modify this code:
    Code:
    ##
    # Custom Key Code - Usefull For Some Device which not used
    #                   Standard key code for up/down/select/back/menu
    #
    # You can capture the keycode in
    # recovery using "aroma-keycapture-flashable.zip" Available in
    # AROMA Installer Thread.
    #
    # Press some key when it run, it will return key code,
    # that key can override up/down/select/back/menu actions in
    # AROMA Installer, you can even set your home key for up, or
    # volume down for select item
    #
    #-------- Uncomment & Modify this Code:
    #
    # ini_set("customkeycode_up",     "115");
    # ini_set("customkeycode_down",   "114");
    # ini_set("customkeycode_select", "116");
    # ini_set("customkeycode_menu",   "139");
    # ini_set("customkeycode_back",   "158");

    Programming Language
    It was application which runs on Android device but not on Android OS Environment that the native applications usually use Java. AROMA Installer use C (Pure C, not C++), so it may run on another platform like x86 with small modifications ofcourse.​


    Used Libraries
    • ZLIB - ofcourse, it was the most awesome thing in computer world :good:
    • PNG
    • MinZIP
    • Freetype
    All library need to compiled as static to make sure it runs without any dependency issue in any devices.​


    Official Binary
    I Only support ARM device, but it was opensourced, so anyone can play with the source and compiled it for they own devices.

    About AROMA Installer

    Background
    Android has an advanced system for installing the OS and updates, unlike other mobile OS's that distribute the contents of the OS in static ROM image(s), Android distributes the OS and updates in a plain .zip file that contains all of the packages, files, and the updater for processing the installation.

    The updater splits in 2 types, the binary (update-binary) and script (updater-script), while the binary is an executable file, and the script was a configuration script that tells the binary executable what to do.

    But this advanced technology never expanded into its highest potential ability. The update-binary was simply the linux executable wrote in C that runs in root mode, and can do anything to your system; including accessing the Display FrameBuffer, accessing keys and the touch screen, set vibrate, run programs, parse files, load png(s) and .zip's, and read and write to the filesystem.

    The old update-binary only supported a few functions that can controlled only by the updater-script to instal the files. It didn't have a single function that allowed the installer to interact with the user. There is a program called "yesno" that shows a "Yes" or "No" interface, but it wasn't enough to create a more customizable updater.

    Now with AROMA Installer update-binary, all of this limitation is gone, and this advanced technology is expanded to the highest level of its pontential.


    What is AROMA Installer
    "AROMA" was taken from Bahasa Indonesia (Indonesian Language) and it means "Scent", but it is also an abbreviation of "AMARULLZ ANDROID ROM MANIFESTATION". It is an advanced update-binary for Android that contains many features like Wizard Installation, Touch User Interface (AROMA UI), Customizable Packages, System Inspecting, Themeable, and User Interactive. All release versions will have "flower" codenames, for example, the 1st version is codenamed "Anggrek", which mean "Orchid".​


    How AROMA Installer Works
    How can it work in recovery mode, and how can it so smooth when it scrolls? It works because I hired Chuck Norris to force the recovery to run the installer, and the phone is too afraid to show any lag :cool:.

    No, seriously, when the user selects the .zip file to install it, the recovery will extract the update-binary and run it with a few arguments. All processes are handled by the update-binary, and the recovery will only show the information passed by update-binary via a custom pipe. The great thing is that the update-binary can do anything if we can code it in C/C++, but not all people can easily play with C/C++. Its also not very effective or fun to compile it every time we need to change the process. That's why the custom script is used in AROMA Installer, it is simply edify scripting that is used as the normal updater-script, but with expanded functions available.

    It wasn't a simple thing to archive something like this, because the update-binary is simply the "linux executable" that doesn't even support dynamic links of libraries, basic drawing functions like drawrect, drawline, and I don't think it OpenGL can be included in it's binary. It runs on it's own. Even User Interface was wrote from scratch to manipulate directly into the display framebuffer, user input was read directly from the raw kernel input device, png and .zip was read with a static link library, and the configuration was parsed in it's own program. It is the result of one full month of developing, but you can learn it instantly, without any need to know how to manage memory usage and pointers.

    The AROMA Installer will read, parse, and run the script commands to show it's UI, calculate partition sizes, create, read, and write temporary prop files, set & get variables, do simple integer comparisons and math sequences, do the if else or inline if conditions, configure the UI color scheme, configure rom information, and much more.

    Because it was very complicated and needed a lot of time to develope, did I earn some reason to get donations?.​

    exit_status run_program(path [, argument1, argument2, ... ]);
    exit_status exec(path [, argument1, argument2, ... ]);
    Parameters:
    • zip_path - Absolute path to executable
    • arguments [Optional] - Command line Arguments
    Return Value: Return exit status. "0" for common success status
    The output buffer/stdout will be automatically saved into "exec_buffer"
    Examples:
    Code:

    run_program("/sbin/ls");
    
    # or
    exec("/sbin/ls");
    
    # With some Arguments
    run_program("/sbin/ls", "-l", "/sdcard");
    
    # Mounting Device
    exec("/sbin/mount", "-t", "auto", "/system");
    
    # Get Return Status
    if
     exec("/sbin/mount", "-t", "auto", "/system") == "0"
    then
     alert(
     "Exec Status",
     "Mount was executed successfully"
     );
    endif;
    
    # Get STDOUT
    exec("/sbin/ls", "-l", "/sdcard/*.zip");
    alert(
     "List of Zip in SDCARD",
     getvar("exec_buffer")
     );
