26/Sep: How to make your own image for MCRi


Guest PaulOBrien

Recommended Posts

MCRi makes installing ROM images easy, but more than ever before it makes creating them easy!

To create your own image that's flashable via MCRi...

  • get your device to exactly how you want it
  • 'adb shell' to your device and run 'tar zcvf /sdcard/mcri-system.myrom.tar.gz -C /system *'

That's it!

You now have a tar.gz that you can share! It only contains your /system image, so none of your personal data is in there. End users flash by dropping the file onto their SD card named 'mcri-system.tar.gz' and rebooting their device (they need the MCRi bootloader installed of course).

Simple eh? :lol: If you get an error running tar, you are probably missing busybox...
