[APP][SHARE]Odex Me...Odex Any rom(and i mean any) - Samsung Galaxy Fit GT 5670

Works on 2.3.7 upto 4.2.2(At least thats all I have tested).
Hi,Guys this is an awesome app here let me start by stating.
Advantages of Odexed Rom.
1.Better Battery life
2.Better app performance.
3.lower ram usage.
Disadvantages of Odexed Rom.
1.no themes can be applied(and i mean at all).
2.Lower /system space.
How to Install -Guide-
1) make sure you have a custom rooted rom / kernel with init.d support (scripts must be able to run at boot: it is a folder in /system/etc). It is very important or it won't run pre-boot scripts.
2) make sure that you don't have any themes applied before odexing or you will loose your themed apps after odexing.
3) simply put the apk in /system/app folder with a file browser like "Root Explorer" and ofcourse give correct permissions rw-,r--,r-- and reboot.
4) do a nandroid backup(just added safety) and/or a titanium backup of all user apps and system data
5)Start ODEX ME app
6) follow the onscreen instructions.
7)your device will boot several times or even boot for a long time(Its all normal).
8)to see if you rom is odexed go to /system/app partition and you will see a whole lot of .odex files.

I think all recoveries support backup options(that is nandroid backup)
else backup all user apps and system data using titanium backup.

Huh what sorry are you saying that you placed the apk in /system/app partition gave it permission rw-,r--,r-- rebooted , clicked on the app icon from the app drawer of odex me. choice odex now let the phone remain aside till it stabalised about 5 min max. and then your settings app is not there.
what did you do cause I am using latest release and nothing happened.

Yes,I do what you say.but my settings disappeared.

OH MY did you do the steps I mentioned after flashing int2ext4+ no wonder go into /system/app and tell me if there is a file called settings.apk and settings.odex
for most safe and best result always run first any script. mod .anything you need done then flash any app2sd script.

Sry... but I can't odex official cyanogenmod (2.3.7). It goes to bootloops. (Cyanmobile, Razodroid etc. were odexed successfully by your mentioned method but not this one)

I'm using cm7 official odexed so what exactly did you do is your dalvik cache moved to /sd-ext cause that will explain the boot-loop.
sol. don't use any app2sd solutions till after you have odexed k.

I use Link2SD. I also used Link2SD on Cyanmobile too but no bootlooping in that while odexing.
So, do I've to unlink all the links of Link2SD & then try odexing??
If Yes, then I'll give it a try...

that doesnt make any sense link2sd moves only user installed apps not system so should give no problem....? but you can try and unlink from link2sd and see how it goes.

hmm thats actually not really any problem or bug the app converts the dex files to odex files and stores the file onto /system/app basically the dalvik cache of system apps is moved to the /system/app directory. Hence the lower space.

Well you got to be careful because the updater-script in cm7 only copies the system folder and not mount or copy the data folder, I have a meta-inf folder that copies and mounts data, if you want to included it

Is the download fix script named "06mountdl" or is it "download fix script". Cant seem to find anything named download fix script in cm_epicmtd_full-6.
Or am I just wayyyy off the mark here?

Marcusant, you know, you never have to unzip a rom. You can drag and drop files from other roms, edit them by double clicking and saving and then confirming the save thru the extractor and delete them with the delete button. Also, you need to add all the scripts from cm7 like bmlovermtd and updater.sh and all the other stuff besides /system. And finally, you should probably say to use a TW kernel on a TW ROM and use the CM7 one on any AOSP/MIUI/CM7 ROM.

Certain apps like Maps, Street, Youtube, Voice, etc. are generally stored in System. Through regular updates, they also install a copy to Data, without removing the System copy. I prefer to move them so they only exist in one spot. This way they're also remove-able by the end user.

You can make them into a flashable zip, so then you can reflash them every time you install a new ROM.

Thank you. This is one of the cardinal sins of ROM making is to put a bunch of crap in /data (especially when the data is custom app settings, and or the only launcher). This can leads to all kinds of fail if the user has to do a factory wipe/reset.
I experienced this with SRF 1.2. I was business trip and I got a case of unfixable /data corruption (an all too common occurrence with SRF). So I did factory reset and when my phone rebooted THERE WAS NO LAUNCHER, because the only launcher was in /data/app/.
I guess I could understand putting things like youtube in data, but this still means you will be forced to download those if you do a factory reset.
The best solution is the have a script in /init.d that runs a `first run` setup script at boot and copies stuff into data from a compressed archive in /system
CM7 has this built in, though I don't know if they utilize it.

Hm, I see that most of your problems stemmed from the disabled journaling of SRF 1.2. A 'feature' I'd been vehemently opposed to since the beginning, and that I countered with my very first rom many many months ago.
However, I will have to respectfully decline on the opposition to /data usage. I cater first and foremost to users looking for a clean start. For me, a rom that didn't have so much as a file explorer to access my sdcard upon first boot was bothersome. I feel the phone should be fully featured the moment it turns on, not once you download and sign into everything 30 minutes or more later! From there, I'd have to download mybackup and restore apps that should've been there and ready to use the minute my phone booted. I also recommend a manual task killer, and to that end, include one configured to the safest and most effective way I've determined.
That said, Epic storage is at a premium (or at least it was before MTD conversion), and having google apps stored on /system as well as /data is a redundancy I prefer to avoid. I also include a 'full' version for those users that reallllly want the most suggested apps installed. At the same time, while my downloaders appear to enjoy the functionalities such as flash, polaris office, swipepad, adaway, and voodoo on first boot, I prefer to take the opposite route of Sprint/Samsung and ensure that every one of these 'features' is also user-removable.
However, I will concede that a launcher should potentially be installed to /system in the event of a factory reset. I myself prefer to 3-finger into CWM and re-flash rather than ever factory reset. Especially since (in the case of SRF 1.2) it was near impossible to make it to that option through all of the FC's.
Here's something to think about:
If every rom had the same stripped down apps, the same standard featured mods (volume, hotspot, etc.), and obviously the same access to themes, then most of the available roms would be identical.

That's mostly the case with TW-based ROMS. Aside from that basket of mods and included/excluded apps, the diffs come down to the init.d scripts (RAM & tweak scripts), build.prop, some tweaked files in bin & lib, plus theme files -- depending what the Chef did. Like you said, the secret is in the frosting .
wish someone would convert ei22 mostly stock. then i would prob go mtd. i am afraid to try to do this myself...
So if I was on a mtd rom right now and I converted a bml to mtd could I simply flash it or would I have to be on a bml to be able to get this to work..?

How did you convert it? If you did it this way then it is flashable on MTD. You only need to Odin back to BML if you are going to install a BML ROM or BML backup.

[MOD][Flashable] Install Apps in Batch Mode on system/app Partition

What is this?
It's a zip file which you can run from stock recovery. It can install 25-30 apps on system/app partition in 2-3 seconds.
Why do I need it?
Assume you have flashed a new rom. You now have to go through the pain of installing more then 30 apps on your rom one by one. What do you do to automatize it? Use this zip file
Okay fine, What else do I need to know
The system partition is a mere 220mb rom. On a fresh stock rom, it hardly has 10mb of free space. It contains a lot of apps which you don't need. You will need to uninstall those apps from system/app which you don't need to free up space. This freed space can up used to install new apps.
I will be posting a flashable zip file which can remove selected bloatware apps within 2 seconds. Will post it tomorrow.
Customizing the zip file
1) Download sysapps.zip from attachment
2) Open it with winrar/winzip
3) Browse over to system/app
4) Drag drop your list of apps from your hard drive to this folder
5) Winrar will automatically save the archive. It's done. Close it.
IMP: Assuming you have 50mb of free space on system partition, it is still not enough for games and other big apk files. 50mb should be enough to install atleast 30 apps each weighting from 500kb-2mb

Instruction of use:
1) Download sysapps.zip from attachment
2) Place sysapps.zip on root of sd card (root means outside; not within any folder of sd card)
3) Switch off you android device
4) Start your device in recovery mode by holding all three keys at once(up volume + middle menu + power key)
5) Select "apply zip from sd card"
6) Select sysapps.zip
7) Select Yes
8) Reboot

Just push a button it restores all your apps plus you can select which apps to batch restore
plus if you have link2sd installed it will link files to sd as they are being restored

This is faster than titanium backup and more reliable. I know because I switched over from titanium to this method he he he
Used together with this, it automatizes everything. From 1) installing stock rom to 2) Removing bloatware to 3) Installing sys apps takes around 10min

Yes this is possible, I have it removed in my ROM.
It required decompiling the SystemUI.apk and editing the size of the text to a 0 pixel so that it is now gone. There are other ways to go about removing it, but I find this to be easiest.
Feel free to diff. my SystemUI.apk to see where the edit is made.
Or, I suppose if you are not wanting or simply do not know how to do this I can do it for you, simple MOD and I can get it done very fast. I just need you to upload your SystemUI.apk. The best way? Use something such as root explorer from the Playstore and go to your system/priv-app folder and pull the SystemUI.apk and upload to something like Dropbox and reply to this post with the said link.

Download this link: http://d-h.st/SJR
reboot to your custom recovery, find the .zip you download that I provided and flash it, wipe (only) cache and dalvik cache, then reboot.
If you reboot and it is still there, I'm guessing you are on the stock ROM and you may need to just delete the SystemUI.odex and all will be good, but I don't believe that is necessary it should work upon reboot.
Let me know.
------
For those curious, this is how the MOD was done.
1) Decompiled SystemUI.apk
2) go to res\values\dimens.xml
3) within dimes.xml find:
Code:
<dimen name="carrier_label_height">[COLOR="Red"]24.0dip[/COLOR]</dimen>
change to
Code:

a nandroid backup always fixes things, but I think I know the issue,
Download this new link .zip and reboot back to recovery, flash this new .zip then wipe cache and dalvik cache (only those two, this is important) and reboot.
If issue is still there, it may be because you are on an Odex ROM? and you may need to delete the SystemUI.odex
try flashing this first though and let me know,.

[Q] Settings-->Themes

There is this option called Themes in the settings menu. consider me a complete newbie and tell me how that works(Like does it help in changing themes if so how do I do it).
There is no option called themes on the stock Rom. What are you running?

A custom ROM dev may choose to add the new CM theme engine to his/her ROM. If you were to install a theme (via Play Store or .apk from XDA, NOT themes that you flash or where you modify files) you use the theme manager to use the theme.

You deleted a symlink that linked to your internal storage, thus it deleted everything. You can't see the symlink in a file explorer while in Android but while connected to a PC, you can.

wow never expected it to be so complicated. Does this symbolic link show up only in custom rom's, if no then normal users like myself would probably mistake it for an empty folder and delete it.
Thanks for the explanation.

It exists in any ROM. You shouldn't delete anything if you don't know what it is.
