Someone posted a link called Release: Deodex'ed System. - xda-developers.
When you click on it, it takes you to something totally unrelated.
I would like to figure out what happened to the posting, can we get the link back? If not, I am reposting the file - obviously taking no credit for creating. If someone can somehow recreate directions on how to do this, would be great. It was wasnt an install zip file from CWM - it was pushing files through ADB to the /system folder. From what I remember, there are 2 folders, you need to rm: framework and rm: system/app and replace with these???
I posted it, but there was a failed maintanance of xda that caused them to use a 24 hour old backup, therefore my thread was deleted. I will repost it soon, theming something at the moment, but will look for a clockwork update script that will make the flashing a lot easier than using adb and shell commands.
Thought I was losing it when I couldn't find that post again. Wow I'm not going mad. Spent 45 min looking in different forums though I swore it was here.

Thanks a bunch! I could not figure out WTF. Yeah, a CWM one would be fantastic.
Out of curiosity, you removed VVM...in the done_app folder there are a bunch of .apk's. Can I simply add the VVMService.apk and VisualVoiceMail.apk through Astro, or do they have to be pushed?
Thanks

When I applied it the ROM the first time, it removed VVM, and I could not reapply - kept getting a parsing error
Are you gonna repost the Deodexed rom with DI01 soon? Just wondering if you were gonna still post it. Thanks!

I don't use it, but he is a screenshot of both deodex apps installed
http://twitpic.com/2sjznq
Just give me some time to release the updated deodex files and they should work.
Great man! Definitely can't wait to get my hands on it. Hoping that using that rom I will be able to use the default Google Car Dock app on it. Right now the Google one has issues, and once you push it to /system/app and reboot the phone just starts endlessly ringing until you delete the app and reboot. Keep up the great work man!
Hi I was wondering if someone can help me modify an apk I got from the market. Its a flag live wallpaper and wanted to include my country since there isn't a live wallpaper with my flag. I tried to exchange an image of my country's flag with one in the apk itself however, after zipping it back up it wouldn't install on my phone. I got a problem sparsing package error. Then I tried using ninjamorph and did the same thing. This time it wouldn't install.
What can I do to make this work? Someone please help! Im new at this.
Btw this is the app I downloaded from the market:

You can't modify market apps without resigning them. Search for apk manager or....can't remeber the name, but there's a tool that's simply made for signing apks.
so after zipping the file back up, do I just run it through apk manager? Im currently having issues with that program. And how do I sign the apk? Is it hard or automated by the program?
Thanks in advance!!

Ya it's after you have it zipped up as a .apk and ready to go. You may have to rename it as "unsignedAPPNAME.apk". Either way, simply place it in the "place-apk-here-for-modding" folder and select option 12 "Sign APK". The you'll have a "signedAPPNAME.apk". That's it

k so i went in resized your image and optimized, zipped and signed and it tells me that im overwriting an app upon install then it says application not installed.
im actually upset because i cant figure out what the problem is, i normally have success with this kinda stuff but i might just take a loss on this one.
Sorry dude, heres the app anyway if someone wants to look.
P.S I changed your image because it was blurry upon resize, im sure you'll like my new one.

I was going to try to fix this, but it installed just fine for me. The flag matches what he uploaded, so I assume it's correct.
I'm guessing you probably had the original apk already installed on your phone. A resigned apk will generally not overwrite the original. you have to manually uninstall it first. (I'm explaining this more for the op's benefit than yours )

after trying out several roms, I noticed that some have 'quick office' built in and some don't. The rom I'm running now and really like (Shostock) doesn't have it. Is there a .apk somewhere that I can download?
thanks.
Check my rom page I have a bloat.zip that has it included.

It has required lib files that go along with it. As you have witnessed, it won't work without them.

This.
So basically once you grab the APK and place it back in /data/app or /system/app then you need to grab the quickoffice lib file and put it in /system/lib.
If you get stuck I can make you a zip but it has to be later, work is busy right now.

i've never done this before and am not sure what to do.
i downloaded the ota files and magic iso. i assume that i open the disc image file? i tried this and it says "can't find the file or the file isn't a cd image file!"
But how did you get it lost???

Renane signed_system to system.img i.e. and try magic iso again.
Don't think folks will provide you their e-mail app for security reasons.
If you got it really messed, flash an ota rom, anyway...

What ROM did you install? If the Developer removed Blur from the phone it might not be as simple as re-installing the stock email app.
However, I'm currently running Abysm Extreme 1.1 which has the stock email app removed. All I did was download the standard version of the ROM which includes the old Gingerbread email app, extracted the email.apk, dropped it on my SD Card and installed it.
hope this helps.
I have included all 4 apk with email in their name form system/apps folder.
Good luck

Ok so now your phone is working right ?
So now download Root browser from playstore
Then open it and now go to device /system/Apps / here now find Camera.apk and delete it after that go back to your sd card copy camera.apk and move it to again above location and set permissions on it , they must be look like RW-R-R
Thats it your done.
