[APP] MPKG - Faster/cleaner pkg installer based on yan0

[kiwiguy]

i dont have mpkg option when i choose open with, how can i install it??

Read the Guide to Modding sticky at top of forum. It has a whole section on installing MPKG with step-by-step instructions. There are different versions for different firmwares - you have to make sure you get the correct version of it will not work!!

Hey bragon, what do you mean by untar the attached file and none of the attached files have a .system folder. where can i get that.

I have been trying to install the iphone theme for the last 5 hours but the mpkg on my phone just won't open anything. I have a R5232_C2 or 25p. what can i do? Please help.

I wanted to put a quick post here to note something discussed elsewhere on the forums: several of us who have recently bought Mings have received models with the 0.9R firmware. None of the MPKG variants posted so far work with this firmware, it seems, and so I am appealing to Yan0 or Bragon or one of the other MPKG gurus: can someone figure out a MPKG solution for us please?

Dear All,

find an updated version of yan0 pkg installation script that allows installation of non signed application on ezx platforms. What I did is to clean up a little the script and make it faster by avoiding the unnecessary testing of the pkg file format (i.e. tar.gz or .tar) through the use of its magic. I added my ezxpopup touch for a popup notification of the start of the install and completion.
Please find both versions for A1200 (R532 firmwares and R541/R532L4).
For the installation just remove (and backup!?) on your (micro)sd card the .system directory and in place untar the attached file.

Enjoy!

UPDATE: new version v1_2 of the installer implementing the following changes:
- fix automatic kill of am (application manager) at the end of the installation so that you do not need to restart the phone to see the icon (thanks clovis to spot out the error)

Attached also is the new mpkg.lin script that should replace the /mmc/mmca1/.system/QTDownLoad/mpkg/mpkg.lin one if you want to avoid reinstallation of all your apps!

Note on uninstall: it seems that the latest firmware do not offer the possibility to uninstall the pkg: it appears not related to yan0 script or my adaptation.

hi, is there any problem with the files to download, because once downloaded am having so much problems to uncompress them!!

any idea? or soft to do this?

...am having so much problems to uncompress them!!

You need an app that can untar files. 7-zip works on the PC (see Guide to Modding sticky for link) or SmartAsst works on phone itself.

I think this is the Russian language firmware only sold in Russia. If so, there will be almost no experience in rest of world as to what MPKG installer runs on it. I would suggest doing a search on our sister Russian site http://motofan.ru/

R541_G_11.56.11R
GSZMINGET679TE01CD

Hi, I have a A1200E phone, I've already installed SmartAssistant and many pkg apps. The problem is that now, I have to install MPKG as well to install a "strange" pkg file. Is there any "clean" way to do it? Replacing the ".system" folder will result pretty much in a big mess for me since I've loaded the phone with lots of stuff.

Thanks.
