D4 Update Zip Maker v1.2r1 - Make update.zip with some clicks!

[D4rKn3sSyS]

Well, I was seeing that some times people just don't like to manually make scripts, so I had the iniciative to make this software, and after weeks of no sleep, here you go.. I hope you guys like it!

Features:

• Installable, now you can choose any folder on PC for building zip! Removed since 1.2
• Easily build update scripts for Edify script (Used by most of ClockWorkMod Recovery's)
• Configuration for compression
• MD5 Calculation for Created Zips
• Read from file
• Hotkeys
• Smart functions (like automatic placeholders for empty system folders only)
• Non-repeatable options prompt (for example, formatting data twice)
• Device selection (we'll need devices plugins )
• Manual edition
• Default symlinks for toolbox and busybox
• Easy use for starting users
• More!...

Simple instructions

Please report bugs, and remember that you need to have java installed for run this, and if you're on windows vista/7, run as administrator
This is a little video when I was building last options, now it's more complete and fast

Cheers,
D4.

Excellent job!!!. This app is excellent, now evertbody can make custom zips.

 

[D4rKn3sSyS]

Simple instructions for everybody to build zips:

• Our work Folder will be called /update by default, and Update zip maker will create this folder on startup (you can change working folder). Also Update Zip Maker zip this folder when you press "Build package". *NEW* Now you can change working folder!
• Copy files to be modded on selected place (for example, if I want to mod /system/build.prop, I'd put build.prop inside /update/system/ folder, which will create Update Zip Maker software) //also something interesting, If you press "Extract system" button, Update Zip Maker will create /system folder, inside /update, and the same for data
• Mount our filesystem (for build.prop case, then we need to mount system)
• OPTIONAL: Add some notification to user, like "installing build.prop"
• Extract files (for build.prop case pressing Extract system)
• Set permissions(for build.prop case 0 0 0 644)
• Push zip to phone, install and enjoy!

This program is the bestI think this will be usefull for all devices who use ClockWorkMod Recovery so it will be greate to have teseter's with difrend device
btw D4 you are rocking exelent work

EDIT: hey is there any option that you add permissions for framework, bin, xbin, system?
i think when you press Set permissions it pups up like it is but there would be extra space that you just chose perms like for framework

(0, 0, 0755, 0644, "/system/framework");

this is just my proposal

for folders like framework you can use "set permissions recursively"
btw, guys, could you press "sumbit to portal", on the top of first post, so everybody can see this please?
Edit, new version it's up, enjoy!

Are you sure problem isnt with the app?

also try
set_perm(0, 0 , 755, 644, "/data/app/yourapp.apk")

set_perm_recursive it's for whole folders!

Working folder it's main folder, that means /somefolder, you're trying to use /somefolder/system/etc/init.d, then you just need to use main folder, that means, working folder it's where you can see "META-INF", "system", "data", etc...

I don't understand you, can you tell me all steps you followed?, also did you run as admin?
edit: and btw, we still don't have your device prebuilt (htc wildfire), can you test with u20?.
