Xperia J "Android is upgrading" Every Boot - Sony Xperia Miro, Tipo (Dual), J, E

I have Xperia J Rooted,Unlocked and Deodexed.
I don't know why but I face Android is upgrading every boot.
It's loading all apps again so my boot takes about 5-10 minutes.
What can I do?

It's because you have .odex files left in your system. If you deodexed you're self you should delete odex fils.
Good luck.

How can I remove that .odex files?
Where are they?

You'll have to delete them manual they are in: system/app folder and in system/framwork folder. But before you delete anything make backup with cwm.

But I don't know what are the differences between odex and deodexed files. How can I know which is odex or deodex.
In addition I use a mod which is called Pure Performance X
This mod have Zipalign and CrosBreeder
Do they cause that problem?

Search on xda what are odex
Sent from my ST21i

Same problem
I also have this type of problem but i am on odex. So i don't know what is actually the problem. I only install xperia keyboard by cwm and also xtheme engine. Are they actually caused from titanium backup since i once saw that on others forum.

[MOD] Deodexed XXKB3 with VANILLA Lockscreen for I9003!

Based on I9003XXKB3 firmware, I made this mod also for our phone...
How to install:
- unpack the archive and copy the two folder to sdcard ( you must have /sdcard/done_app and /sdcard/done_frame)
- with you pc get an adb shell and type:
su
mount -o remount rw /system
rm /system/app/*.odex
cp /sdcard/done_app/* /system/app
rm /system/framework/*.odex
cp /sdcard/done_frame/* /system/framework
reboot
Important:The first time the phone maybe won't boot so: unplug the battery and restart...and be patient!
DOWNLOAD HERE
P.S.: for the people that don't like the deodexed app but that have the I9003XXKB3 firmware installed I post also an archive with two files. Simply overwrite the originals in /system/framework/ (also with root explorer)and reboot. The first time the phone maybe won't boot so: unplug the battery and restart...and be patient!
EDIT: The two files contain a mistake so i removed they... sorry.... only apply the first guide!
Let me know what you think.... bye
Ohhh... Basically its a deodexed apk and jar with a different lock screen. I too have deodexed my fw xxkb3. But for Lock screen you can get applications from market. No offence, I respect your work, its a good beginning. Sorry, but I thought initially its with vanilla kernel.

You have a risk of boot loop with Framework related files if there is any incompatibility or improper file replacement. Any time you try such items be ready to reflash. What is your Firmware? Is it XXKB3? If yes then it should work as per Skin 1980, but it wont work on other firmware unlike system/app apks.

Yes. I have XXKB3. And I am not afraid to reflash I did this several times (first to upgrade from XXKB1, then to remove OCLFv1, and so on ) All my settings/applications are saved to Dropbox with help of Titanium backup
Nice work dude
Thanks a lot. Deodexed applications works well. Also I like standard lock screen
Please fix your instruction:
cp /sdcard/done_frame /system/framework
to
cp /sdcard/done_frame/* /system/framework
BTW After start it showed 318M of free memory, with standard fw I saw ~270M. But I thought that it should use more memory (not lesser). This is strange for me

Hi!
I am on ddkb2 and just want the lockscreen! What do i exactly have to do to just get the vanila lockscreen
Thanks dude, used your framework files for the vanilla lock. But why did you remove those framework.apk files? I noticed those missing files during flash and added my own deodexed apks. Worked great.

I don't remove framework-res.apk.... simply it cannot be deodexed cause it doesn't have odex file.... correct me if i'm wrong

Who said no odex files dude? just check the stock firmware or ask someone who is running stock firmware to check in the /system/framework. There are 24 files after deodexing the framework folder, before deodexing you have 46 files. Attached screen shot here. I have highlighted the apk and corresponding odex files from framework folder.

No dear, I am talking about the two apk files in framework folder which are not included in the jar folder. framework-res.apk and twframework-res.apk are the two files. If you are using the application Deodexer_2_3 for deodexing framework files, it creates two folders one for jar files as deodex_jar and another for apk files as framework. Just check in the that folder you will find them.
When I transferred those deodexed files to /system/framework from downloaded files uploaded by you. I used an adb command
Code:
rm /system/framework/*.odex
. This means my system will never reboot without those odex files of above mentioned apks, if did not replace them with deodexed ones. Hope I am clear now. If you guys check in your framework folder you will find two odex files which you have not replaced. Please dont take is as an offense, I love your work.
What i wrote in the first post is what i've done on my phone that works correctly.... sure that the files i attached are not all the files that must be in the system and framework folders.... this because it's simply an "update" to stock rom.
Another thing... no problem with you my friend... we are working all for the same result...
P.s.: framework-res.apk and the other cannot be deodexed i supposed cause the related odex files will be put by the deodex-software into the related .jar files.... check into your framework-res.apk .
Sent from my GT-I9003 using XDA App
No dear, I am sorry to say but you are wrong here. every .apk and jar has their own odex files so the odex resides inside the respective apk or jar file that it belongs to after deodexing them. If you want I can attach those two deodexed framework apk files, which should go into /system/framework folder along with remaining jar files, (without their odex files). Will post tomorrow morning here you may link them to the main post, if you feel so. If I do something, I am never satisfied by incomplete job.

[MOD] Battery Icon Mod for Stock 2.3.6 ROM

Was bored today (read: avoiding doing work), and quickly had the UOT kitchen give a better battery icon. Nothing fancy.
If anyone wants the zip, feel free. Also attached are the necessary files to make your own mods in UOT kitchen (if you're running the stock 2.3.6 rom).
....and now I guess I'd better do work today.
Without CWM (on stock 3e recovery), how's this installed? Can't install non official samsung zip files with 3e. Also, stock ROM is odexed... can i just rename/delete SystemUI.odex and replace my SystemUI.apk with this one? Or does it have to be pushed with ADB?
Good question! Wish I knew how else to install it without CWM. You might be able to change out the files, but I honestly don't know. Anyone out there know better than I?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727
easiest way to install without cwm is to have root explorer extract all the files in there which should be (framework-res.apk) and systemui.apk . once extracted and in your phone sd then you have to drag it with root explorer to system/framework for the framework-res.apk and for systemui.apk to system/app but before u do that you have to fix permissions by bringing them into system folder then fix permission and then move it otherwise you'll see forecloses like no tommorow and you're done. but if your rom is .odexed its not possible because of .odex scripts it'll mess up your phone like whoa ..anyways enjoy
permission to fix in the box are like this..

I'm on the stock 2.3.6 ROM which is odexed. I see in /system/framework there is framework.jar and framework.odex. And a framework-res.apk with no matching odex. In /system/app there is systemUI.apk and systemUI.odex. So, to avoid a FC shii storm, I should:
1) put the OP systemUI.apk and framework-res.apk in /system and fix permissions...
2) then move systemUI.apk to /system /app folder.
3) move framework-res.apk to /system/framework folder.
Do I need to delete my current SystemUI.odex or leave it? Not sure if OP's systemUI.apk is deodexed or odexed?
Secondly, do I do anything with my current framework. jar and framework.odex files?

Sorry, but it won't. But you can make your own using uot kitchen (online) for themes. Though I have read that some of the personalized ROMs don't play nice with UOT...

ive not tried anything with .odex but it doesn't work as far as i know and yah some roms that are personalized have uot problems but just follow up with devs of those roms they can fix it up and all for ya.
I can confirm that it does work with odexed roms (since it does work with stock 2.3.6).

Thx for confirming... so back to my questions above.. do i need the systemUI.odex file or does your systemUI.apk combine both? Also, do I do anything with the framework.jar and framework.odex files (or just replace framework-res.apk with yours?)

The framework and systemui files posted above are originals (I posted them in case someone else wanted to mod it themselves, so they wouldn't have to extract them themselves). The zip file is the new icon materials from UOT. Not sure how to directly install it (I've only ever installed from the zip file myself)...

I tried installing with CWM and following DoctorQMM steps to the letter (even learned all about fix permissions) but no matter what, my phone locks up and just flashes after the install and reboot. What can I try next?

Hi!
I want to mod my SystemUI.apk!! Other Bat-Icon, other Softkeys and so...

Then i Reboot the device.... i see the changes (other bat-icons) but then the System stopps the UI and the Navibar is gone... then she comes again and the System stop it again

So far I have modified only deodexed ROMs... This is my first odexed ROM....

Roms need to be deodexed to theme them in that way.

Instead of using APK Manager, you can treat SystemUI.apk as a zip archive, extract it on your device, make your changes, re-zip it, change the zip extension to apk, replace your SystemUI.apk with the modded one, and reboot. Don't touch the SystemUI.odex file at all. Leave it. And if anything goes wrong, push your old SystemUI.apk back to the device. This method works (sometimes) on odexed ROMs. Because SystemUI.apk is a system app, it doesn't need to be re-signed or anything; just zipped.

Give me 15-20 mins. I'll have it sorted for you.
Okay, it took me a little bit longer as I got sidetracked. You have two options here;
1) Install the .zip through CWM. I've made it so that you can and it will automatically set the permissions to the .apk's too.
2) The second option is that you extract the .zip file and manually move the .apk's to your /system/app folder and set the permissions to them.

Need some help regarding Odex Files and corresponding apks

Hi guys, I got this problem in my odexed stock rom, I have this problem in sysui, gallery and calculator.
I downloaded 4.2.2 style sysUI, pushed it in the respective folder by replacing with its stock sysUI.
I rebooted my core, the statusbar was gone, so I deleted 'SystemUI.odex" file, then rebooted it worked!
In the same way, I replaced stock gallery with note3 gallery, and stock SecCalculator2
Luckily note3 gallery worked, but it doesn't support Sim2 so I can't change Sim2's wallpaper or make it same as Sim1's.
In the statusbar, I can't see most notification cuz its completely transparent, and also its a bit laggy.
Calculator never worked
So I wanted to replace these with stock, when I pushed it in system>apps> I noticed that there were no .odex files for .apks
I replaced them with their stock odex files, none of 'em worked, I guess cuz of the odex thing, so I again deleted odex files and rebooted, nothing worked..
Now, I need some developer's advice, plz don't tell me to "Flash Stock Rom via Odin" I can't do it...
Is there any other left way to make them work plz I need help..
You are saying 'in my deodexed rom' and then you said 'deleted. Odex file for systemUI'
How could this be possible?
If you have .Odex files in system/apps folder then your ROM is not odexed.
Deodex it first using xUltimate tool
And yup Don't forget to set permissions = rw--r--r--

Sorry bro, huge typo. I meant in my odex rom and yes I set the proper permissions...
Well, it seems to me that you have messed up your phone alot.. Flashing stock rom via odin would've been the correct solution to this problem. It's not as difficult as you think, and you're capable of doing it. Follow thecoreguy's tutorial for that.

Then you have done wrong.
Not every apk can be used by just deleting the .odex file.
You need to deodex the apps in system/app and system/framework folder then you can easily replace the apks.
1.First restore back to any working backup.
2.Download xUltimate Tool.
3. Run it.
4. Then just run commands with options 1,2,3,4 (You just need to type 1 and then enter, then 2 and then enter, so on upto option 4.)
5. Exit after executing 4th option.
6. Download ADB tool(don't download the complete package, you will get a 1-2MB ADB.exe from the from itself) - Use it to push the deodexed files made from xultimate.
---------- Post added at 09:47 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:22 AM ----------
If you find it difficult then Better you upload the apks with their respective odex file. I will deodex those apks

Not even the stock apks? I want to replace the ported/modded apks with the stock ones..
No you can't because almost all stock apks have their respective odex files and every odex file contains resources that are needed to run those apks. Also there exists dependencies in system/framework folder. So just deleting odex file won't work all time.
Finally got it! Special thanks to megatron
Solution if u r screwed in my situation: don't panic, what I found why I cant do it was bcuz my phone has dat "newest" update of samsung ota. So b4 u take someone's apk and odex file always cross check this(image)
And then you are gud to go!!! U wont even need to restart it'll come automatically(my dad has same phone and same updated version as mine so I copied everything needed frm his phone to mine) @AnsleyC at times, the answer should not be "flash stock rom via ODIN" if u have a crappy pc, u can either repair faulty parts(easier and efficient) or buy a new one(bullcrap)
Have fun everyone!
