Update.zip signing - Galaxy S I9000 General

Dear Members, first of all hello to all..
I'm trying to create a update.zip file that removes the default applications that samsung puts on Samsung S and installs one or two more.
But I'm having a problem with the signing of update.zip
I have the struture:
system\app\xpto.apk
META-INF\com\google\android\update-script
and now I know I have to sign it but I dont seem to find a working tutorial, I've read some with signapk.jar and others without it...
Can someone plz point me in the right direction so that I can accomplish it?
Thanks

There is an app in the market by stericson called 'Signapktic' that allow you to sign your zip file via the phone too. Require root though..

How is java important, android is based on java, an .apk is just a modified .jar and there are tools to change a .jar into an .apk so a jre or java vm isnt required
Nice. Can this use for website that require java applet security?

Why is there no java.apk in this zip file? Also, recovery throws up an error: Unable to find "system/customize/MNS/52099.xml" in Manifest file or something like that when tried to flash this zip..
I get an error for a missing file system/customize/MNS/52099.xml and then it says verification failed... anyone know how to fix this

Deodexing stock 351

Hi there,
I m thinking of deodexing stock 351 rom. i did apps and framework successfully and flashed them back via zip but after that m stuck on bootloops.
Please someone helpout. i wana learn not go back via nandroid:]
Best way to do this is to download the htc desire kitchen rom maker. It has great options to deox and zip align as well as make a cwm flashable rom....
I tried to do this manually and always ran into issues, with the downloadedable kitchen it works everytime.

what is your error? I don't see it... Did you go into build.prop and remove the one module the streak doesn't use?

LOL, agreed! The thread may however provide some answers the the issues that were encountered.
You do plan to Cook it afterwards right? You aren't just DeOdexing for the sake of DeOdexing? From what I've read there is basically no point to it unless you intend to create your own ROM based on the DeOdexed one. It probably won't hurt anything in a way that you'll notice, but it won't improve anything either.

if you're flashing frameworks you need to make sure the old ones are deleted first and that the correct permissions are set on the files.
I've no idea what you're trying to do with the zips, there's so little information in this thread to actually point out what you've tried to do so far..
if you just want to replace frameworks with deodexed ones (why? odexing is a way of speeding things up, unless you want to try theming) then you also should be deodexing the system/apps as well, and clearing dalvik-cache.
"Apk files have respective odexes that devs use to supposedly save space. Deodexing means you convert it back to a .dex file and put it back inside the apk. This allows you to easily replace files (not having to worry about odexes), but the main point was to deodex services.jar so that you can change all text to different colors (such as the clock color to white) and to deodex services.jar, you need to deodex everything. "
There are huge amounts of tutorials online about deodexing roms if you really want to do it.
if you're using windows then there's a fairly good tool called AutoDEOTool (v 1.02 works fine) but you still need to read the instructions.
I deoxed and zip aligned and I have noticed a differences in speed
Sent from my Dell Streak
I use the kitchen to deox both /system/app and /system/framework.... not sure about your update script because the kitch actually makes that for you so it should be correct

This is not the one. I'm talking about the Nexus One's default wallpaper, which will be available in LG P500's stock froyo ROM also. I think it will be available in the first set of apks you provided. But I'm facing the issue of installing.
Anyway thanks for your help mate. I'll try to install those apks somehow.
Try Nexus Revamped Pro on Market.
And what about Microbes live wallpaper from Nexus? It has been ported to SGS, so is it possible to have this in OO?

[Root][CWM][Unbloat] A200 one click tools

Hi everyone,
Today we have a one click root tool and an unbloat tool. Both work very well and I in no way take credit for these tools.
First off is SimpleTool by hbwelch.
This tool creates a one click bootloader unlock, root, and clockworkmod CWM recovery.
It works great and I have tested all three functions.
Download: AcerA200 SimpleTool V2
The unbloat tool by Toffy seems to work well. I do have a hand full of apps that still refuse to let me remove them but at least we can get rid of most of it.
I was told this link was not in my best interest to be hosting so it has since been taken down
These developers can be found at the Acertabletforum website.
Thank you to hbwelch and Toffy for your work!

The "Unbloat" tool has a bunch of copyrighted APKs in it. It's probably not allowed here on XDA

I would say if anything it is questionable ground. The tool is only trying to remount the apps so they can be removed. It isn't exploiting the copyrighted material.
Can .apks even be copyright protected?

Download the tool zip and you'll see that the actual APKs are in there. The tool /should/ just move them via ADB. It would make for a tiny download too

That would make more sense. I didn't create the tool though. Until I am certain the tool is against XDA policy I will keep it available. I don't believe there is anything wrong legally with simply having the APK. If that were the case Titanium Backup could also be in the wrong by backing up your system apps to a user accessible location.

Well no Titanium doesn't break any laws because it doesn't upload your APKs to rapidshare
I don't mind the tools being available but I wouldn't want you being banned for trying to help either the mods can get quite pedantic sometimes. I've already had a week's ban and I didn't even upload anything illegal to xda. I think I posted a link to a forum that was deemed bad. Lolol
