deodex stock rom - RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hi
i'd like to know how i can deodex my stock rom
i have a razr hd xt925
thanks

inb4: Sorry for posting in old Thread.
Same Question here, would be great to have stock deodexed.
Hope you can help me

If you don't plan on doing any themeing, there is absolutely no reason to deodex. There is no battery saving, or speed increase by doing it. Most of the time you only need system ui and framework res deodexed to do any simple themeing and mods.
Anyway, when I get back to a computer I'll post a link to the tool I use.

I was planing to Theme a little, with the Help of XPosed framework, which don't seem to work on odexed roms.
Next thing is, that it's really annoying, to rename twice as much files, if you wnat to change some system apps
Thanks for your help in advance

[Q] want to bundle custom framework mods for stock ics

So I love my tweaked and modded ICS 4.0.4 rom. It's blazing fast, killer battery life and I couldn't be happier.. okay I lied. there's some framework-res.apk mods I would realllllly love to flash but I have not idea how to bundle/bake a flash package that includes the ones I want.
I would like to have;
1. Extended reboot menu
2. Either the WP7 or Sense 4.0 multitasking switcher
3. The full album art lockscreen mod
4. any others I don't know about?
But they are all separate framework-res.apk 's and flashing them over eachother either removes the previous mod all together or borks the system.
Any help would be greatly appreciated

It hasn't even been a day yet lol.
You'll need to find out how each tweak was implemented (you can do this by browsing individual decompiled frameworks), then use one of them as a base and implement the other tweaks. Decompile, tweak, recompile and sign/zipalign. For Odexed rooms like stock you'll also need to create a .odex file. Unsure how to do that myself.

[APP][MOD] (not so) Faster (and buggy) TouchWiz Launcher [XXLE4]

I saw a lot of comments about how slow the new TouchWiz launcher is, so, because I had already downloaded the ROM, I want to try something.
I'm not using this ROM, so I don't know if it works, let me know.
This is the new launcher, don't be fooled by its name, that's how Samsung named it.
It should be uglier than the unmodded one, but it should be as ugly as the one from Gingerbread, unless Samsung used more transparencies and fancy shades this time (transparent widget should be affected by this change too). Here the explanation.
_______________
Downloads in the next post.
Note:
If you are not familiar with adb, I suggest you to install an alternative launcher first, then copy /system/app/TouchWiz30Launcher.apk somewhere safe, for example in your SD card. In this way, if something goes wrong, you can always start the second launcher and restore TouchWiz30Launcher.apk with a file manager.
At least until someone tries the two zips to restore the unmodded launcher.
No launcher, no way to launch apps

Downloads [apk + flashable files]
There are 4 flashable zips, two of them restore the original TouchWiz launcher.
Read the name of the file, fasterTouchwiz-odexed.zip obviously is for odexed, fasterTouchwiz-deodexed.zip for deodexed.

(the only one I'm sure it will work is fasterTouchwiz-odexed-restore.zip)

Well I just flashed the deodexed file, and apply with CW and working EXCELENT!!! Good job my friend!!!.
I have the Clean Rom by Luiseteyo V3.1.... So now I have 2 lanchers!!!!.....
Thks very much!!!!
Edit: Its no smooth as the holo launcher but work very very fast....
I tried on xxkpq. But force closes.
I really don't know how this new TouchWiz launcher is, anyway, I explain what I did in this mod.
(I wanted to know first if this really changes something)
Basically this new TouchWiz launcher uses 32bit transparency, or at least that's what I can see decompiling it:
Code:
<bool name="config_force32BitWindowAlways">true</bool>
What I did was to put that boolean value to false.
32bit transparency makes everything better too look, but it also slow down the UI. Without it, you should see some bands in trasparent backgrounds, it's the little price to pay to have a smoother interface. (In Gingerbread the default setting is 16bit, so you should see these bands)
@vishal
I think there are too many differences. Samsung apps use their own framework (twframework-res.apk) and probably this launcher needs the new framework. I don't think you can simply replace it with the new one. Maybe I'm wrong, I don't know anything of this ROM.
Anyway, if you want to see how much this little change can do, you can enable 32bit transparency in GO launcher (it's somewhere in the settings, I can't remember exactly where, maybe it's called "high quality drawing". It's not the same thing, because they are two different launchers).
@machotecba
Thanks for trying this. I'm glad to hear that it works.
TouchWiz30Launcher? Wasn't it TouchWiz4? Will test right now. Thanks for ur work
I tried this in and there seems to be a lot of performance increase.... As always, your mods are simply incredible...

Can I ask a question? Could you port the 14 toggles for Deodexed and the extended menu for this rom? I tried and I could not, well I must learn / read more for that....

I don't think I'll do it now, maybe in the future. I did this one simply because it was fast and easy to apply.
If you want to try again, here I posted the links of some tutorials.
Anyway I think that sooner or later these mods will be ported to this ROM and if I'm not wrong, someone had already ported something, I can't remember where are the links, maybe in XXLE4 thread.
Hey losnosc!! I am using the tested 'n' worked version, but i have a little issue: when press home, the screen goes black during a 500 msecs and then goes desktop. It's normal??

Tested, but not by me
I think that the problem is that there's a transition application->desktop that does a large use of transparencies and because of the 16bit what should be semi-transparent is solid.
It's just a guess, I flashed this ROM for 5 minutes just to fix the WIFI, I didn't even try this mod.
If that's the problem, I could change this behaviour.
So let's try something (this one too is a guess, I don't know if it works or if I changed the correct thing): fasterTouchwiz-experiment-deodexed.zip
(flash the old zip in case of problems)

EDIT: Samsung could have at least changed this
Code:
const-string v0, "GT-I9000"
with Cm9 there in no reason to use samsung roms!

[MOD] Skip music tracks with Volume buttons (JB 4.1.2)

Finally!! After thousands of boot loops I got it working. There are several .diff's for implementing this mod in android.policy.jar, but what I forgot: this works only on a completely deodexed ROM and mine was only half deodexed. It is possible to run deodexed and odexed system apk's side by side, but you must not(!) run a deodexed framework with odexed apk's - this was my learning curve
Summary: If you are on a fully deodexed 4.1.2 JB ROM (I am on 91.2.26001 Retail.en.EU), simply copy the android.policy.jar to /system/framework, set the permissions to rw-r--r-- and reboot.
MAKE A NANDROID BACKUP BEFORE, just in case!!
If you want to incorporate this into your ROM (Omar?), I attached the needed smali's too.
If you are on an odexed ROM, here is a short help to deodex yourself:

Enjoy skipping music tracks in your pocket by long pressing volume without turning your screen on!
UPDATE: added CWM package for easy flashing.
Installed it right away! It works awesomely well on my phone I'm using PIlama 0.6.
If you keep on modding the stock rom like this we won't need to port CM. At least I'm not missing it
Keep on your great work. My Razr I is now as fun as my Nexus S had been before

Too many.
There are some tutorials here at XDA, just search. The thing is, you have to adapt the variables, that's a little bit research though.
Easiest way would be: Extract original android.policy.jar and compare it to my mod, then you'll see the differences.

The only problem that has to samsung and wanted to carry the Razr HD XT925 and compare when there is a big difference in the lines.
more okay, no problem.

Not sure I understand what you mean...
Just try it: Take your own PhoneWindowManager.smali and compare it to my mod, that was the way I did it in addition to read several different How-To's.

Is your system deodexed? Then you may try it, but do a Nandroid backup before, so that you can roll back easily.
If it works, tell us, if not, tell us
But deodexed system is mandatory!
Hummm, I saw on Link2SD and the system Apps are all odexed. Then no go for me I think.
You can deodexed your system alone.

MOD) animation lag fix?

i privately mod - theme all of my android devices. both the s4 and the optimus g pro lags like hell as we all know. we can either blame hardware or the software. im going with the software. the permanent fix will be custom roms and kernels but until then i was digging through the systemUI and framework-res and i think i found the source of some of the lag.
it's in the framework-res / animations folder. in here you can see standard animation xml's but also touchwiz ones that were added by samsung for all of the new gimmicky features and gestures. so i performed an experiment. i opened up my framework and added aosp animations from a cm10.1 rom, added the res back to the apk and pushed it to my device. BOOM, lag gone for the most part and smoother animations. before this i tried everything including deodexing, debloating and turning off all features.
i just thought i post my findings for the devs and anyone who feels like getting their hands a bit dirty.
enjoy! :good:
EDIT:
http://www.mediafire.com/?mbop6l3yow612vt
here is the modded framework-res. push via adb to system/framework and restart your device. this is a stock, unmodded framework other than what i replaced with the animations. this is a deodexed apk, so don't try on any odexed rom. THIS IS FOR AT&T ONLY!
I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOU BLOW UP YOUR DEVICE. BACKUP YOUR CURRENT FRAMEWORK-RES BEFORE PUSHING THE NEW ONE IN CASE YOU HAVE ANY ISSUES.
IF this works the mods can move this to the dev section.

You can't Odin a deodexed ROM. And there's no flashing. You just deodex your current ROM, then copy and paste his framework-res.apk into /system/framework/.

Yeah it sounds like he didn't set the permissions on the .apk before booting.
For anyone else who wants to try this, copy the framework-res.apk to your /sdcard (if you're using adb and the framework-res.apk is on your C:\ drive, use the following adb command without the quotes: "adb push C:\framework-res.apk /sdcard") and then use the following adb commands:
Code:
adb shell
su
mount -o remount,rw /system
mv /system/framework/framework-res.apk /system/framework/framework-res.apk.bak
cp /sdcard/framework-res.apk /system/framework
chmod 644 /system/framework/framework-res.apk
rm data/dalvik-cache/*
reboot
This saves a copy of your original framework-res.apk as "framework-res.apk.bak", in the event that it goes wrong it's just a simple adb command away to revert back to your old version.
I added the animations from the OP's mod to the framework that I use, which comes from DocBarebones' theme add-on for the i9505/i9500 S4 variant. Everything has a dark/gray tint, as I always like to black out my phone as much as possible.
Here is the file, just push it using the same method(s) above. Works great for me!
http://www.mediafire.com/?twg26703t0g6mu5
so over 600 views on the thread. can anybody confirm it at least pushed and worked correctly without bootlooping? i just want to make sure its ok to keep the download link up.

[REQ] SystemUI for Xperia E

Hi, everyone! I don't know if I am doing this right but here it goes...
I have a Xperia E, and I am so, but so done of that green battery that is useless and even don't tell me the percentage of remaining battery!
I flashed to ICS and modded the SystemUI, it was an awesome mod, with transparency and battery's percentage.
Why I changed again to JB? Because of better compatibility with apps (more recent) and a sudden hope that Sony will launch a new update.
So recently I had an idea, but my knowledge about apks is very low and I don't know how to program Java and XML languages.
I installed an app, GravityBox, that do the job, but it occupy RAM and CPU time.
If there is someone interested on this and want to do, teach or help, please tell because it will benefit everyone and maybe people will understand how Android works and maybe it will work like an introduction to modding.
First of all is the percentage, if possible I wanted to look like the screenshot.
I'm interested 2 if someone can teach or guide,refer.

there's no risk anyways...since your just editing the apk's ....(worst that could happen is 'no system ui ')
if you were tweaking kernels and that sort of stuff it would be risky...
OK good luck!
Begining SystemUI
So I started doing the battery icons, more like the screenshots, but now I have a doubt, if someone knows this please reply.
When I installed GravityBox the percentage does not change size, I mean the font size, and for this the icons should be bigger that the actual 21x18 pixels.
Now I am at the 36% icon, possibly I can do all icons today and compile to .apk again.
I'll do the tests to not endanger other equipments.
SystemUI testing
I have good and bad news.
The good is it worked once but with fails, don't ask me why because I don't know, I just followed the TUT.
The bad is that I got this "New Android Interface".

Well since I can't use ClockworkMod properly because I can't unlock the damn bootloader, I have an odexed ROM, but when I had ICS it wasn't deodexed and installed the mod simply by removing the .odex file, I think it would be the same procedure.
The SystemUI I modded is from my actual ROM, simply and for now I just made new SystemUI icons and changed the respective .xml files.
I don't know what I did wrong and why it only worked when I put the modded SystemUI on the system/app folder.

talk to nsdcars5 or matspunt about it.....
but first ...your bootloader...do something about it
I'll see what can I do, I have to call my carrier to see how much it costs to enable bootloader unlock.
I'll also contact these users you indicated me, maybe my problem is very small. :thumbup:

Unlocking the boot loader is different from carrier unlocking! If your status says yes it's completely free.
Please Google for guides, because right now I'm on my phone.

It's says no... I already have seen guides and forums about this and they say what you say.
Sorry for everyone, I did not have the time to check the news on my thread.

How did you make your stock ROM deodexed? Just removed the odex files right?

No! Don't do that! You'll just have to flash the thing again.
@Grimlock007 Just asking, since when do I have experience in SystemUI mods? Only time I did one was for my last phone, for which GravityBox didn't exist (*cough* Gingerbread *cough* 256 MB RAM *cough*).
New Idea
I got an idea, when I had ICS it was also odexed and I could mod.
So the steps for me were:
1 - Copy the original SystemUI into a folder (backup)
2 - Copy modded SystemUI to the app folder
3 - Reboot
4 - Delete odex file
5 - Reboot
6 - Done
I was thinking in a person who has deodexed SystemUI and if this person transfer to me.
I think it would work, basically I think it's the same process, even for modding.

i was talking about the .odex delete part (i think)
Hi everyone, again!
Finally I found something interesting with gravitybox.
The screenshot without the status bar is like the expanded desktop from gravitybox.
I'll take a look again on my systemui configurations and soon will dispose to everyone to use, see and modify freely and at own risk even if it is incomplete by my side. I want this to be a community project for xperia e and by xperia e users.
I still have two questions...
How do I make not expanded desktop?
Why nobody sent me an Deodexed SystemUI?...
