Step Three :change/modify/update rom

YOU CAN MODIFY YOUR ROM IN TWO STEPS:

MODIFY USING ANDROID KITCHEN - for basic modification.

MODIFY MANUALLY. - for advanced modification.

1. MODIFYING USING ANDROID KITCHEN

2. MODIFYING MANUALLY.

FOR ALL ANDROID PHONES (ESPECIALLY FOR GINGERBREAD ROMS) USE THIS GUIDE FOR COOL MODS.

like center clock,CRT animation, ics and jelly bean style mods etc... ANOTHER GUIDE BY ME

Adding/removing applications

1. Go to the working folder where you extracted your rom, inside you will find:

OR

2. Then go to "system/app" inside this folder you will find all the rom applications(apks) you may also find some in the data folder if your rom has this folder.

3. Copy, replace, and change any app(apk) be carefull if you dont know what the apk is do not delete!!

LIST OF APPS YOU CAN DELETE - HERE OR HERE

If you can not find some apps in this guide then try opening all those app in your phone and see app name and icon or move those apps from system/app to sdcard and see what is not working...

Adding new boot animation

android kitchen doesn't works for this in Samsung phones. So we need a different method.

1) Download and extract the bootanimation and samsungani file from Custom Booting.zip attached in first post.

2) Put them in the /system/bin folder and replace the existing files there

3) Now download any boot animation, and rename the bootanimation to “sanim.zip”.

4) Now, navigate to /system/media and replace the “ODEanim” with “sanim.zip”

You are done with the bootanimation change

customizing the theme

1. replace stock launcher with launchers like nova launcher

2. theming using uot kitchen (fonts, status bar, batery and other icons etc

Edit the gps script for your country/location

1. In the workingfolder/system/etc/ you will find a file named gps.conf, you can

edit this file with notepad++ or even word.

2. using the right gps script in this file can speed up gps lock, you can

find some from angeldeath, download extract and replace the gps.conf.

Adding ringtones :

Take your ringtone file...it should be in .ogg format..If not then convert it to .ogg..

Locate to the folder system>media>audio>ringtones>

Copy and paste your .ogg files here in ringtones folder..

You can also change notifications, alarm and UI tones like this..

Changing the Fonts :

Take your desired font.ttf file and rename it as DroidSans.ttf..

Locate to the folder system>fonts>

Now, replace the file DroidSans.ttf with your desired DoridSans.ttf...

To change the lock screen clock font...replace the Clocktopia.ttf with your desired one..(rename first)..

build.prop tweaks!!

check this or this or this post for build.prop

NOTE: EDIT BUILD.PROP WITH NOTEPAD++. SIMPLE NOTEPAD WILL CORRUPT THE FILE.

adding mods and scripts...

download mods and scripts from links below and copy past all files in same folder as your rom... like for init.d scripts add them to system/etc/init.d/here and all permissions in updater script to your updater script...(dont forget to give them credit for it...)
