For some reason the SuperSu backup script even though it says installed isn't giving my phone root. Because my volume up button doesn't work I had to end up using adb to get into recovery mode and then flash root.

I've since been using the FlashAfterUpdate folder and haven't had a problem since :) would be nice if the backupscript worked though
[General Omni Discussion] dt192:
It should work as long as your rom supports addon.d scripts, I'm using omnirom and the backup script works fine, are you manually wiping the system folder or something? Have you looked in the system/addon.d folder to see if the script is there after you install it?
[General Omni Discussion] meulsie:
Ah I was wondering what the folder it was that it installed to, I'll check it out shortly. Cheers
[General Omni Discussion] vaa:
hey guys

somehow I cant make my zips working.

would somebody please make a working zip with the following updater-script?

I assume there are no mistakes in the code...

run_program("/sbin/busybox", "mount", "/system");
delete(
"/system/app/Apollo.apk",
"/system/app/Browser.apk",
"/system/app/Calculator.apk",
"/system/app/DashClock.apk",
"/system/app/DSPManager.apk",
"/system/app/Email.apk",
"/system/app/Exchange2.apk",
"/system/app/Galaxy4.apk",
"/system/app/HoloSpiralWallpaper.apk",
"/system/app/LiveWallpapers.apk",
"/system/app/MagicSmokeWallpapers.apk",
"/system/app/NoiseField.apk",
"/system/app/SoundRecorder.apk",
"/system/app/Stk.apk",
"/system/app/VideoEditor.apk",
"/system/app/VisualizationWallpapers.apk",
"/system/priv-app/Mms.apk",
"/system/priv-app/VoiceDialer.apk",
);
run_program("/sbin/busybox", "umount", "/system");

Would make updating much easier for me :)
[General Omni Discussion] jeffsf:
In my opinion, you'd be better off writing it in the form of an addon.d script. Nothing says they need to backup and restore!

Can´t advise to use this script with Xposed 2.5, it causes my Phone to not detect the SIM-Card anymore... better use the "Xposed-Installer-Recovery.zip" that comes withe Xposed 2.5!
[General Omni Discussion] Pons:
Or make an addon.d script that backs up and restores it, so you're not unnecessarily flashing stuff.
[General Omni Discussion] 74NK:
add a link to gapps with the choices presented. I found flashing them quite necessary. :cool:

[General Omni Discussion] RaphaDroid:
Why would I want to flash gapps at every ROM update? They have a "survival script" for that. ;)

[General Omni Discussion] 74NK:
I personally like starting clean and reinstalling all the apps and backups. Takes me 20 minutes so it's no biggie. Just my preference though.
[General Omni Discussion] MarcusHD:
Hi,

Ist there a way to give the zips an order to flash like 1_gapps.zip, 2_SuperSU.zip, 3_remove-Apps.zip?

There is no way to Backup /boot and /system before update Omnirom?

Thanks.

Gesendet von meinem Nexus 7 mit Tapatalk
[General Omni Discussion] RaphaDroid:
Yes. You can rename the zips just like that. :)

I don't know if it's possible to be done via flashable, but that might be possible. Unfortunately I'm out of time for researching that... :(

Also, could someone create a zip for removing omniswitch? Thanks.
[General Omni Discussion] paps79:
So, a rename was needed for Del_Gallery to work and I also made one for deleting OmniSwitch.
[General Omni Discussion] RaphaDroid:

[General Omni Discussion] paps79:
I was having a force close when pressing the download icon in the app drawer, maybe because of something else I removed (Documents?)?

So I made a zip for deleting the DownloadProviderUi.
[General Omni Discussion] an0n981:
Yes it needs documents apk to open the download ui
[General Omni Discussion] AndroidDeveloperLB:
About "GoogleDialer_1.01.zip", when using it I get 2 phone shortcuts.

Is it ok ?

Shouldn't it remove the other one?

Also, how do you use video calls (normal ones, not over the internet) ?
[General Omni Discussion] RaphaDroid:
It's normal. You can hide the stock one. :)

Cheers

Enviado do meu Nexus 4
[General Omni Discussion] AndroidDeveloperLB:
Hide by disabling?

It won't cause any harm?

Will it even be ok to uninstall it?

I would also like to ask: is the dialer a part of the phone call itself, or is it another app ?

If they are different, what is the name of the app that is responsible of the calling itself?

if they are the same, how come there is no conflict between the two apps?

EDIT: I've used the zip file of Xposed framework to allow having it installed even after updates of roms.

For some reason, it didn't work and needs to be re-installed.

It says that "app_process" has "---" in the "active" column, and yet "XposedBridge.jar" seems ok. attached an image.

Are you familiar with this ?
[General Omni Discussion] RaphaDroid:
I was talking about simply hiding the app from the drawer. :)

You should not disable the app. The stock one is responsible for the calls. I didn't understand why, but we need the original one for making/receiving calls.

About the framework, I've never seen this before. Have you tried a clean install of the latest framework? Couse that's what I'd do... :/

Enviado do meu Nexus 4
[General Omni Discussion] AndroidDeveloperLB:
About the dialer, thank you.

About the framework, how do I do a clean install ? uninstall&re-install the app just like any other app?

Or maybe I should also do some additional steps?
[General Omni Discussion] an0n981:
Use the install/update. Then get the xposed toggle zip from the framework thread. I assume you updated xposed and are using an outdated zip. The xposed toogle zip will always keep your framework up to date with whatever version you have installed.
[General Omni Discussion] AndroidDeveloperLB:
Thank you for answering.

Has the xposed-toggle zip file being updated over the last week?

I've put it only recently into the "OpenDelta/FlashAfterUpdate" folder, so that it will be installed each time I update the rom.

The xposed installer says it's version 2.6.1 .

BTW, the new UI is much better than a month ago (or something like that).
[General Omni Discussion] an0n981:
The xposed toggle has not changed. It takes files from the data partition and pushes them to the system partition. Since these files are always the same as your framework version, you should not have any problems. If that is what you are using, then there is a different problem. I assumed you were using a flashable zip that included the framework files in the zip.
[General Omni Discussion] AndroidDeveloperLB:
No, maybe I do something wrong. Can you please post links and step by step ?

Next time there is an update to the rom, I will check it out.

Also, thank you for your patience.
[General Omni Discussion] an0n981:
If you haven't yet, press the install/update button in the xposed installer app, so that the framework is active. Then place this your flashafterupdate folder http://xdaforums.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2315886&d=1381424564
[General Omni Discussion] AndroidDeveloperLB:
I did it before. I will do it again.

Now that I've checked it, I noticed that even though I have added the "GoogleDialer_1.01.zip" into "FlashAfterUpdate" folder, I can't see this app (after the update of the rom).

Same goes for any other zip file I've put there , for example CM_calculator.

Weird.

Is it possible updating the rom won't make it look at the zipped files?

Maybe the path is wrong?

the full path is:

"/storage/emulated/0/OpenDelta/FlashAfterUpdate" .
[General Omni Discussion] an0n981:
Check in the OpenDelta app - 3 dot menu if secure is checked. If it is none of the zips will be installed

The path is correct
[General Omni Discussion] AndroidDeveloperLB:
I see. It warned me about this act, but I think only apps with root can place files there anyway, right?

In any case, thank you. Guess I will see if it works next time I do an update.
[General Omni Discussion] AndroidDeveloperLB:
ok it seems to work now.

What if the system apps that were in the zipped files got updated from the play store?

Does it mean they will get downgraded when you do a rom-update (because it wipes the "/system" folder and re-flashes the files in the "FlashAferUpdate" folder) ?
[General Omni Discussion] an0n981:
Yes that is exactly what it means, if a play store app is installed in system (which I don't know why they would be) then you will need to create a new zip file with the updated apk.
[General Omni Discussion] AndroidDeveloperLB:
As to why, the reason is that it requested the user to do it, since some permissions are only available to system apps (they are rare though), as shown here.

You can look for "Permission is only granted to system apps" and see many developers who tried to use such permissions.

I've noticed that such permissions cannot be used on normal apps (AKA user apps), even if they have root.

About creating a zip, you mean that each time a new update of the app will be available, you should make a new zip file of it before updating the rom?

If you wouldn't do it, it could cause weird issues, right? Because the data of the new version now belong to the older version... This is very true about DB...

Am I correct ?

[General Omni Discussion] Newbie_from_NJ:
Hi guys,

New to the thread and ROM. You guys keep mentioning Xposed framework. Never heard of it, but it caught my attention. Is this phone specific, meaning Do I have to go to the Note 2 section and look for its thread there or is there a general thread that works for all devices? When searching for Xposed I get a ton of hits.

I'm assuming, simply adding your Xposed_toggle.zip to the FlashAfterUpdate folder will not install it for me, right?

---------- Post added at 11:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:47 PM ----------

Also, Google Dialer link in OP not working... ?
[General Omni Discussion] chuSmu:
Xposed has its own categorie which can be found under xda community apps if I remember correctly.

And nope the toggle zip does not install xposed but rather needs xposed installed in order to work.

cannot add files to flashafterupdate folder, permission denied

I need to change some zips in the Flashafter folder but cannot delete anything or add anything, I am on the latest nightly 20140624 for GT-N8000, folder is on internal memory, tab is rooted and superSU updated to latest. I keep getting error: "EACCES (Permission denied)" when I want to copy anything new to folder, however it is possible to copy files to the OpenDelta folder!

Depending in the file manager you are using you might have to enabe write permissions for the directory. It's like that with es file explorer for example...

Thanks.
[General Omni Discussion] chuSmu:
Hi, thanks for updating your post. I'm just sure what you did there though. Did you move the flashafterupdate folder to the path you mentioned [MENTION=4933022]michaelam[/MENTION] ? Or what exactly did you do? I'd just like to know ;)
[General Omni Discussion] an0n981:
The path mentioned /data/mdeia/0/opendelta is the same as the opendelta folder on internal sdcard. Technically it is the actual location, and the internal sdcard is just a mount point. If you use a root browser to the contents of /data/media/0 you will notice it contains the exact same folders/files as your internal sdcard
[General Omni Discussion] chuSmu:
Thanks for clarifying! :)
[General Omni Discussion] Neitsab:
That's just awesome, thanks a lot [MENTION=5367731]an0n981[/MENTION]! I was about to follow the steps outlined here so as to create flashable NOGAPPS zip, but luckily I skimmed through the thread and found your post before :D

[MENTION=5016813]RaphaDroid[/MENTION], could you update OP so as to include them as well? I love Omni, but if I had to reset NOGAPPS packages every time I update, I'd sure still run 4.3... :p

---------- Post added at 02:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:07 PM ----------

By the way, is there a way to retain BlankStore account details after each update ? Right now I flashed the NOGAPPS zips through TWRP (but not with OpenDelta's FlashAfterUpdate, just manually) and wiped dalvik/cache, but I've had to enter account details again (Android ID...).

Thanks
[General Omni Discussion] an0n981:
As long as you flash before rebooting into Omni, your account info should be saved. If you reboot first, then the data for Blankstore will be cleaned and you will have re-enter your account info.
[General Omni Discussion] Neitsab:
Thanks, that's what I thought afterwards but it's good to have a confirmation :)

I just noticed the Network-Location apk provided above in the NOGAPPS flashable zip keeps its original name "NetworkLocation-gms.apk" once flashed in /system/priv-app (which is the target directory only for Android 4.4, maybe that should be mentioned?). I don't know if it really matters but to quote MaR-V-iN installation instructions:

(However, BlankStore isn't renamed "com.android.vending.apk" either and does work though, so maybe I'm over cautious here :p)

Lastly, any ideas what changes will the official support of Nogapps by OmniROM (see this post) bring for this framework installation/maintenance?
[General Omni Discussion] RaphaDroid:

That zip saves your xposed files and then restore them again later. It would work with all versions as long as the file structure keeps the same.

[General Omni Discussion] an0n981:
Post your zip here and I will have a look at what is wrong. Or even better, all of those del zips can be added to the 10. Del zip. Have a look at the content (I hope you inspected it already anyways, you never know what others may put into a zip file) For each apk you want to delete you just need to add an extra line to FlashAfterUpdate.sh in the run folder. If you need assistamce let me know and I will create a new zip
[General Omni Discussion] pnsdhrn:

[General Omni Discussion] an0n981:
Ok, so here is your answer. The camera zip was trying to delete the Google Camera not the stock AOSP camera, the launcher3 zip ypu got from the OP is wrong ( [MENTION=5016813]RaphaDroid[/MENTION] new version attached, please update OP) The attached zip will replace your cleanup zip and all the Del zips. You don't need the SuperSu zip, it has a built-in option to 'Install SuperSu backup script' activate that, this way you don't have remeber to to replace the zip when a new SuperSu version is relwased
[General Omni Discussion] pnsdhrn:
And truckload of thanks an0n for your dedicated help. I have already downloaded your zips which have to be used in place of the existing old ones.I am going to renew the FlashAfterUpdate and going to check and flash the new update.
