You can sign your zip with ZIP_Auto-Signer.bat in Flashable Zip Tool

I'm sorry, I don't understand these questions. My English is weak, and I don't know too much about scripts. Maybe Mtakween can answer to these questions.

You can find simple tutorial in OP (or see second part of the #20 post), it's not so difficult to make zip...

Yes, you can use it as a template, just place your apk's (or other files) to the right folders in zip... then sign zip...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ja_som:
Yes, just replace or copy another apk to app folder, and change title in updater-script... There are no references in script, because the script is made to extract everything what in the folders is...

"ui_print("...Extracting...");

package_extract_dir("system", "/system");

package_extract_dir("preload", "/preload");

package_extract_dir("data", "/data");"

I think yes, it will work on any ROM and any device... Try it...

You don't need to delete nothing before resign...

I use WinZip for Mac (use Google for download ;)) to open (and work with) zip files...

And for sign zip and apk files I use this small app (see attachment), just extract both files to first HD on your computer, then drag and drop zip on to Android-sign.app (it's not my app, i found it somewhere here on XDA, i don't remember where)
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] androidfr33k:
Thanks again. I am going to see if I can change the ZIp_Auto-signer.bat to an sh file so it can run on a mac command line?
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ja_som:
You don't need to do it, dowload "android-sign.zip" from my post... Then you don't need Terminal...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] androidfr33k:
I understand now, Mtakween has provided to us an automated way of doing it following his instructions. I can manually do it by removing folder(s) that are not needed like PRELOAD and SYSTEM then replace the updater-script and place your app in the app folder then sign it with the signer you provided?

Thanks Again!!
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ja_som:
mmm, no....

So here is step-by-step guide for Mac users....

1. download Flashable Zip Tool from post #1

2. download WinZip for Mac (Google it)

3. download Android-sign.zip from post #53

---

4. unzip Flashable Zip Tool anywhere

5. unzip files (Android-sign.app & testsign.jar) from Android-sign.zip to root of your FIRST HDD on your Mac

---

6. open Flashable Zip Maker[Don't Extract].zip in WinZip

7. make changes which you want (add *.apk, *.jar, *.so, etc. files) or delete unwanted (empty) folders

8. edit updater-script[Edit Then But In Signed Zip] in BBedit (or Text editor)

9. rename updater-script[Edit Then But In Signed Zip] to updater-script

10. copy/replace updater-script to META-INF>com>google>android via WinZip in Flashable Zip Maker[Don't Extract].zip

11. drag & drop Flashable Zip Maker[Don't Extract].zip on Android-sign.app, you get Flashable Zip Maker[Don't Extract]-signed.zip, rename it....

And ta daaaa you have your own flashable ZIP
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] androidfr33k:
Perfect thanks again.

This post really should be sticky and possibly be a modified version of this post with both Mtakween and your stuff combined and placed into the forum I mention below.. All other posts on this subject are vague and not written as well as this one. You even provide basically everything you need.

I found this post from a new feature built into xda-developers who created a search like field built into the Subject field when starting to create a new post. That way you are not creating a new post when someone else has already written up a procedure for an existing one.

I seriously think that this should be a sticky post and should modified as I suggested above then posted in the general forum>> Operation systems >> Android >> Android Development and Hacking >>Android Software Development.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] androidfr33k:
I have another quick question. When you sign the zip does it resign the APK? If it does can I leave out the APK sign the Zip then insert the APK after?

For some odd reason I got a System UID issue. This time I added several apps to the zip, some had pro versions I paid for with a second APK like pro Key and not sure if that actually may have caused an issue or not when I installed them?

I got a System UID mismatch but not until after I did a titanium backup restore. I wonder if the resigning of the zip may have resigned the APK and when I did a titanium backup restore this may have caused the UID system issue.

It basically wants me to re-fomat the user data partition or continue. It gave me a message, take you chance and continue which I did and seems to work fine.

I did wipe and start over this time not installing more than one application, stickmount and everything is fine now.

I wonder if one of these Pro apps caused the issue after a titanium backup restore r not? I added titanium backup pro, Busy Box Pro, Rom Toolbox pro, android root exploer and Root Browser Pro (Root Manager). Could one or a combination of those apps caused this System UID issue?

I should have tried running fix permissions in TWRP recovery but too late. I may want to try to replicate to see what exactly caused it and if I can fix without wiping and starting over. Wiping and starting over does not take long for me though.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ja_som:
No, when you sign zip it does not sign the application, it does nothing with apk files... It only change META-INF folder in zip

With this issue i can't help you. I never had problems...
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] androidfr33k:
Then if it does not sign the APK , the issue was because of some other reason. There is a META-INF in the APK as well though. Are you sure it does not sign that to? If it does then that is the problem.

EDITED:

I figured out what happened. By mistake I deleted fix_permissions.log from /sdcard

That has to be why because I replicated everything a second time no problems.

Sorry about that. I am still curious though will the signing of the zip be only for the zip and not effect the signing of the APK? inside the APK is another META-INF folder with certs.
[Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go] Ja_som:
Yes it is, but is the same before and after you sign zip file...

It can be resized by editing m10s that are found in assets via vts. BTW if this lockscreen is from virtuous then it cant be resized because they usually protect their m10s and you may need to find another lockscreen probably from stock sense.

Best of luck :)

My Nook suddenly stopped working with SD cards and I am wondering if someone can help me find out exactly what it is.

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] datallboy:
Update to the latest nightly or use the RC2 ROM.

Be somewhat more specific about what is going on. "Stopped working" in what way. Is it not being recognized by your nt?

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] shadowhumper:
It shows as a blank card, then asks me to format it. When I try to format it blinks for a split second as if it was recognized and goes back to blank card and asking for formatting.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] DavDoc:
Do you have a second sd card? See if another card produces the same results

Sent with my Dinc4G
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] datallboy:
You might not have any partition on the SD card.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] asawi:
Have you been using this particular card with its current setup before and it stopped working? Does your computer read the card ok? The more info you give the more likely someone is to be able to tell what's going on.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] shadowhumper:
Somehow it seems that I had not formatted the card in FAT32, it was in NTFS , which is weird since my other tablet recognizes it.

But anyway, I still cant "see it" in the cyanoboot screen. I would like to update my version of CM but since I cant access the SD card from the boot menu it is not possible.

Any ideas?
[Samsung Captivate Glide] dr.mefisto:
Hello,

I've just received samsung captivate glide from usa [ I'm from europe ], it comes to me with version 2.3.3 and no simlock. I would like to make an update to 4.0.4, officialy from samsung website, no rooting, no CW just simple update. Will I loose the simlock? Will it be still unlocked to GSM?

thanks
[Samsung Captivate Glide] soadzoor:
If you (or someone else) officially unlocked it, it will remain unlocked. At least for me, it did.
[Samsung Captivate Glide] dr.mefisto:
how to check if the mobile was officialy unlocked? I haven't done it by myself. I received it this way
[Samsung Captivate Glide] soadzoor:
dont know. maybe ask the guy who you bought the phone from. And if he says yes, ask him for the unlock code, because it's yours. Probably you wont have to use it anymore, but in case you do, you may need that
[Samsung Captivate Glide] dr.mefisto:

Hi, I am here in flashing phones newbie, so sorry in advance. I have LT26i original stock firmware. And I would like to use android 4.2.2 (because waiting for official firmware is unbelivieble). So I found some instructions how can I do it.

first root,then unlock bootloader,then install CWM and then install firmware

Root is done, I think that my unlock is already done too , but without my working on it. Because if I press *#*#7378423#*#* and then Service info--->Configuration I see this: Bootloader unlocked yes.

Next if I want to install cwm I do not know how, beacuase I cant go into fastboot. If I use combination switch on+volume up in same time as I plug USB cabel in device manager appear nothing new. (I am using win8 and UsB debuging is enabled). And a situation is if i press all , is short one vibration then 3 short vibration, logo Sony and it is repeating if I hold all,

what is a issue?

thank you very much

A Word of little advice.

SOFT RESET = 1 vibration then let go of buttons (hold about 3 seconds); Like hitting REBOOT.

HARD RESET = 3 vibrations then let go (about 10 seconds); Like taking out the battery.*

*USE HARD RESET ONLY IF ALL OTHER TRICKS HAVE FAILED. RECOVERY FROM THIS DEEP LEVEL OF SOFT-BRICK WILL TAKE A LONG TIME

Hard Reset Not Advisable @ First Attepmt

Hi everybody..

This morning i found the Tapa 4 open beta free on the Play Store.. I was happy till i read the description.. It is written that the final release will be merged with Tapatalk Hd, born for tablet.. Here are an abstract of the description taken from Tapa 4 open beta's Play Store page:

This is the public beta release of Tapatalk 4. Final release of this app will be merged with Tapatalk HD and will be renamed to Tapatalk 4

It's not right that Tapa 2's users, that paid 2,49 € this app, will be kick out from this upgrading.. So i sent an email to Tapatalk admin about this.. If you want you could sent an email also to try to change their mind about this decision.. Here are the details of the mail:

Address: admin@tapatalk.com

Object : About new Tapa 4

Email text:

Good morning,

I am a very happy and satisfied user of your app Tapatalk 2.. It is the first app that I bought on my android phone and thanks to it and you, i have enjoyed my preferite forums without problems, quickly and in usefull way.. very very usefull way.. I love your app and I thank you for your working on this app to improve it.. The 2,50 € that I paid is not much for this amazing app.. I paid it with my heart! And i am grateful toward you.. Infact I never thought to get Tapatalk via warez because I think that is the App must-to-have for every users forum in the world...

But this morning i see the tapa 4 open beta on Play Store and I read in the description that it will be merged with Tapatalk HD once the beta will finish...

I appreciate your work to improve this app.. The Tapa 4 beta works Amazing and looks like very nice... And i am grateful toward you.. But i don’t agree with your decision to merge Tapa 4 with Tapa HD, that was born only for Tablet...

I think that all users that bought your Tapa 2 are agree with me because Tapa 4 is an upgrading of Tapa 2 and not a new app.. I know that there is an hard work behind an app, but your decision to kick out all Tapa 2 users that paid your app is very wrong..

I wrote this email to let you know what your customer are thinking about your decision to merge Tapa 4 with Tapa HD... Surely it’s not only a my standalone opinion...

<Mod Edit>

I hope in your explanation answer about your decision and in a changing of your decision about the merging Tapa 4 with Tapa HD...

Regards

Please share this thread in the main thread forum respecting the forum rules (e.g. your signature) .. I don't do this because i consider myself the last arrived on this amazing forum and i know that crossposting and OT are forbidden

[HTC Desire S] mimikjahat:
Hello all..

I just bought this HTC Desire S (2nd hand) and having some problem of charging..

When I tried to charge the battery, all the indicators are ON (LED and battery icon), as screen capture below.

But, the battery doesn't charging at all, even the percentage is still the same.

Is this software or hardware problem?

I'm on ICS 4.0.4 which is detailed as seen on the attachment below.

I don't know if that rooted ICS ROM causing this problem as I don't know the status of this phone from last user.

If, i need to flash to other custom ROM or else, please advise me.

Thank you in advance :)
[HTC Desire S] Sengeh:
As for my experience, u can try to change cables, maybe cables are faulty.

OR

ur usb connector for the phone is damaged by the previous users. Few of my friends using Incredible s are facing this problem.

Shud not be the root problem:silly:
[HTC Desire S] PVL_93_RU:
Or maybe it is a battery controller issue after all
[HTC Desire S] mimikjahat:
Connector is fine..

I'm pretty sure about that..

Cause it can be used to connect to PC.

Cable also fine..

Of course not due to root problem.

But as i read before, it can be due to ROM or kernel which is not compatible, cmiiw.

I also suspect that.

How to check that IC?

did u have the part number?
[HTC Desire S] PVL_93_RU:
Battery controllers are usually implemented into the batteries themselves, so your best bet is to try with another battery (either buy a new one or borrow one from friends/relatives)
[HTC Desire S] mimikjahat:
but my battery can be charge using desktop charger..
[HTC Desire S] Sengeh:
Faulty cables can also charged the phone but slower.

Y not try a new cable or change a battery?
[HTC Desire S] mimikjahat:
Try it already..

I also trying to charge with my Samsung charger but didn't work..

For changing battery, I'm not trying yet cz none of my friend used this phone..

Is it possible the kernel preventing device from charging?
[HTC Desire S] Sengeh:
Try the battery or revert back to stock?
