Weird that anyone would need custom zip files - from a unknown source - when we have guides and confirmed files right here on XDA.
In checking the links out, I get directed to spam sites (those annoying 'virus detected' or 'you've won X' alerts that force you to close the browser) and asked for my Google account login.
Perhaps I am mistaken, but this doesn't seem legit.

Very Quick Question

If I take a ROM in .ZIP format and unzip it on my PC into a folder with the same name...
Then delete any .APKs of programs I have no use for (Twidroid, facebook, etc) and then replace the boot.img with a different kernel of my choice and different SuperUser.apk...
Can I then ZIP this primary folder and load it as a ROM onto my MT3G?
Forgive me if this sounds really stupid, but I have no idea.
Would it need to be "cooked" before I can load it??
When you cook you need to make sure the gloves are on and you have the oven's temp turned up real nicely to fry that thing
I guess you didnt search or something? I need you to confirm that you cant/can see this at the top left corner of screen:
xda-developers > Dream > Dream Android Development
Press Dream then head to Q&A section please.Wait a sec...Thats not a Dream..You belong here for asking q's about your phone:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=480
Just do a search for signing tool and it shows up.

its more complicated than it looks...
First u will have to know if removing those .apk will not cause any trouble...
Second u will have to sign the apks u r going to add, and signed the zip too...
about changing the boot.img has been tried before in another thread...
but most important u will have to search, search and read, read...
going to try and find some thread for u, before the mods closed this...
Need to have it resigned...once a zip file is open it breaks the signature but I would aslo like to kno if this is possible

here its a thread about resigned:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=473580
read it all, has interesting stuff, but keep searching...
actually i would like to try this too...
if u ask devs, unless they want to teach u, great...
Wow...
You can open zips (roms/updates) and browse them without the need to resign them. If you change any of the contents in a zip (rom/update) file, as in remove or add, then you have to resign. You do not have to resign the apks you add to the zip (rom/update) file.
To do what you want to do, refer to the link about signing zips that was posted above. Remove the APKs, sign the zip (rom/update) file, and apply the update to your phone.
bring in the wrecking crew!
anyone know how to run this on a mac?
Ha people had post, but the one that make the thread, its no where...
Sweet! Thanks folks.
The "Search" function is the most important in any forum, but it does the user no good if they have absolutely positively no idea what to search for... lol
My goal is to take Manup's Eclair_2.1-v1.5 and remove all the .APKs I don't have any use for... Swap the boot.img for the eclair one with the 10MB hack, replace the SpareParts.APK with one that contains "Keep home app in memory" option, etc, etc, etc.

You've just described in detail what about 90% of roms out there really are: open zip, add/remove files, ..., profit!!!
As mentioned correctly by Moonspoon, all you'd need afterwards is to sign your package (just to ensure that there's no problems with the signature, delete the three files inside /META-INF (leave the folders alone)).
Also, as mentioned by ginatojr (kind of...), you have to know which files you're removing, for example, removing TelephonyProvider.apk, well, that should be obvious. One that's not so obvious is gtalkservice.apk. When I first started, I removed it because I though it was part of Google Talk, when in fact it's more closely related to GoogleApps and SubscribedFeedsProvider.
The only times you want to deal with signatures is if your roms come from two different sources (if you're using an AOSP test-signed core and want to toss in some release-singed Google apps), but for the most part it's unnecessary and mostly discouraged as it's a different can of worms.
So, yeah, that's basically "Rom Cooking 101", where most other people releasing roms are at "Rom Cooking 102", there's really nothing to it.

The keep in home might not work on 2.1 roms yet.
If this works out... My future plans would include doing this to streamline and modify any ROM of my choice as they are released.
I have absolutely no intention of modifying ROMs for redistribution.
This will be for my own personal needs alone.
Can anyone tell me where the .APK files of Market downloads are stored on the handset?

NEVERMIND!
Found them in /SDCard/BackupRoot/app directory.

To anyone who wants the Weather and Toggle Widget (donate version). For free.

Well, here you go. Just click download.
'WAREZ LINK REMOVED'
Same instructions as my last thread.
Copy/paste into web address bar without the quotes.
Scroll down and click download. It is the latest market version (I believe) and works with the skins.
By any chance is the procedure for posting an apk just
being:
-able to have root access to an android phone
-and 2 using something like say Root Explorer to copy it and extract it from
the system, or folder where it sits?
Thread edited & closed for WAREZ.
OP Warned via PM.
The apps you are sharing are paid apps and therefore you are in direct violation of forum rules. This is your first and last warning.

[TOOL] XperiaZxTool LITE {Flashing Simplified}

This should be in the cross device development section.
On another note, the thread you link to in option 21 of the tool is vastly out of date and advises the use of vroot (Which should be discouraged on XDA due to it sending IMEI numbers to an ip address in china, the official xda stance on this is to always give a warning about that which this thread, or your tool does not)
One other point, is it OK to have the folder in any path on your computer or will it need to be in the same folder as fastboot files?

I have reported mod to move the thread already. OK, I will correct the thread of z1 and link appropriate thread.
you can extract it in any path. Fastboot is included with this tool and also you can drag and drop boot.img from any path.
Thankyou for correcting.
Thanks,
It looks good...I just managed to look through the folder and see the fastboot folders.
Thanks for the good work

KitKat Write to ext_sd FIX | DOWNLOAD NOW

KitKat Write to ext_sd FIX
Sometimes when you edit the build.prop and restart your phone, the changes you have made in the build.prop are gone.
This zip must be flashed through recovery, custom recovery of course.
After flashing this, your apps will be able to read/write on external memory. Apps like Titanium Backup for example, or any app that needs to read/write the external memory of the device.
For example in Titanium Backup you can set your external memory as the default storage for backups, this way saving some internal memory.
INSTRUCTIONS
Put the zip on your sdcard
Go to recovery
Click Install
Choose /external_sd
Click on KitKat Write to ext_sd FIX
Swipe to confirm Flash
These instructions are for TWRP recovery, but in CWM it's pretty much the same.
Thanks to @TEKHD for making this for SAMSUNG devices.
I just ported this to HTC and modified the platform.xml
Should work on both stock and custom rooted ROM's.
NO S-OFF required.
WARNING :
I am not responsible for any damage to your device while installing this, proceed at your own risk.
This zip was tested on a HTC ONE M8 device.

Ok, delete it if you want. The link will be up in a few hours. Do what you want.
EDIT : The file is up for download in the first post.
Do what i want......yeah thought it was the opposite way haha
I won't delete it, but good for you that you got the link up. As you probably have read in the xda rules that so called "placeholders" are not very welcome
Cheers.

You should add info that You are not the one who tested it first even, xseroboy - that's what you should have in your profile. You better write step by step tutorial, as it will take less time to change the file by hand, than it will take to flash the file.... or should I say, copy it from the original?

Hello All,
Since kitkat 4.4.2 was released on the Galaxy Note 3, many users were unable to write files to the External SD Card. Below is a simple fix for rooted users on the Galaxy Note 3 N9005 ( International Snapdragon Variant).
**Please be advised that I have only tested this on my personal N9005. However, you are free to test it on your own devices at your own risk!! **
1. Using a root-enabled file manager, navigate to /system/etc/permissions
2. Edit platform.xml and find the WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission.
3. Add an additional group definition for this permission...<group gid="media_rw" />
4. Save the changes to the file.
5. Restart.

Oneplus 3t system image - this is what support team sent (locked rar file)

This is what the team sent me.
I DO NOT HAVE THE RAR PASSWORD FOR THIS.
Oxygen - https://s3.amazonaws.com/oneplussupport/Op3/OnePlus3_16_A.07_160606.rar
Unless you can crack a rar archive without the password (they say it can be done but I haven't personally done it), then its useless on these forums.
Thats the stock image AND the msmdownload tool they use to flash the rom from a hidden Download Mode the OnePlus has when you Hold Volume Up while the phone is off and then you plug the USB in the phone.
They delete the system image and tool they extracted when they're done with it, but they didn't delete the locked archive. Because the password was left in my clipboard, I was able to re-extract the contents. Now I got me this convenient tool the support team uses that I can easily use to un****up my ****ups in the future.

Is the image only for your device or can you share it?

Dude, if you don't want to share your files with this community, there is no need to come here defy us with your finding. This tool might be very useful for OP 3T community.
If you want to share, go ahead and community will be grateful.
If you don't want to, don't say anything.
The said archive can be brute forced in order to extract it. But as some before me have said, unless you share it this post has no use to us whatsoever. Think before posting.
well if you can share the password then it would be amazing..
1. Why is this bumped? Oh, because of a junior...
2. That is for OP3 and not 3T
3. What is wrong with this unbrick thread, which seems to be the similar to what OP posted about, except it's for 3T.
F*** the password. That RAR is irrelevant here.

I'm annoyed because I already told him/them what was in the archive and no one wanted to search/google the tool name, just imply that I'm an asshole because I overlooked the thread 3 months ago.
