Great job. Nice team work. Got the orig build.prop doc, and i hope I can at least hold on to it this time.

Bootanimation and shutdown animation are up there now, but it's in 3 files.

Maybe try zipping the zip files?

Where are the bootanimation files? link please Make sure you share the file in Drive with whoever has the link. Thanks

 

[SuperR]

I could use stock /system/etc/gps.conf

looks like it was modified

 

[horsehockey]

Not sure if any of my backups will help.

Your turn Docwebster

I'll still try to find mine though.

Sorry for double posting the link, but to make sure, you'll need to unzip these, the boot animation and shutdown both orig.

boot animation factory is a good proggy to see them with.

 

[SuperR]

Please post a link to the boot and shutdown animations. Thanks

edit: and any other files you removed

edit2: need stock /system/etc/hosts please
edit3: never mind on the hosts file. Just used the one from the zte source, should be the same

 

[SuperR]

just realized you posted a link, so you are probably confused why i keep asking for the boot and shutdown animations. The problem is that the link takes me to my drive, not yours lol. Sorry for the confusion, but I still need the links to the files

Google drive started givin' me troubles on sharing for some reason.. The boot animation and shutdown are both orig.

boot animation factory is a good proggy to see them with, as well as loading them.

Thanks Doc

One thing to note is the recovery screen. It had a verify md5 thingy on it, and not sure if you saw the missing things in the verify.zip or not.

 

[SuperR]

Uploading the first test rom now. It will probably be up in 10 minutes. Could you please upload TEDC.apk and the bloatware you removed? Thanks

edit: I will need the *.odex files that match the *.apk files too if they exist

 

[SuperR]

Here is the first test rom

apollo_stock_B06_deodexed_root.zip

Here is a list of the files I removed so far. If there are other apps I should remove or apps i should put back please let me know as I don't have this device to test it. I will provide a zip containing deodexed versions of all the removed apps.

@DocWebster Have you deleted any apks or odex files from /system/app ?? If not, can you zip them up for me? Thanks

 

[SuperR]

What kernel version are you running? If you don't know, please go to system settings, about phone, and look under kernel version. I only need the first 3 numbers. Example...3.0.8, or 3.4.0

 

[horsehockey]

I do remember deleting youtube, facebook, Imdb and a few others. - reason was to get space since I didn't use them, and don't have an ext sdcard.

Does the verify.zip change any that you know of?

My version is:

Edit: android version 4.1.2
baseband N9101B01

kernal version 3.4.0 - svn2068 (not sure what the latter is for)

hardware version czbC (just in case ya wondered.

Weird, if you deleted them from /system/app, how did they end up in your backup. All the apps you just mentioned are in the backup lol.

I am not familiar with verify.zip

edit: err, not youtube. It's not there.
edit2: lol, YouTube is there after all.

 

[horsehockey]

I think this thing was set to save some of the deleted files anyway, defeating my deleting for space.

The TDEC.odex link is private. Can you share please

1. Are you sure this TEDC.apk is for the Imperial

2. What does it do?

 

[horsehockey]

I think the verify.zip is the little bugger that keps track of any changes to the system as after I rooted it, or even updated files, it would say so many files didn't match the original install.

Right now, my recovery still goes to the cmw screen, and I'm not sure how to get it back if I would need to.

 

[DocWebster]

Unfortunately I did delete some stuff like google maps and all the amazon stuff. I also have folders on my sd card for gameloft and slacker and I remember uninstalling those. I also got rid of the launcher and installed holo launcher.

This is exactly what i am trying to accomplish. Give you a way to get your device back to complete stock so you could get updates or send your device to ZTE for warranty. Unfortunately, I can't be sure it is complete stock because you messed around with your /system directory. This is not your fault or bad, but it would certainly be better to start with an unmodified backup lol.

and yes, that's the only phone I've had so it's for this one.

Ok, well for now you guys have a debloated deodexed stock rom. Once I get the rest of your stock files I will make full stock roms for you.

 

[DocWebster]

TEDC.apk is in my apps folder too. it's uploading currently, maybe you can shuffle the 2 together to make a full set.
