I'm new to Android modding so this might be a dumb question. But is there a way to reverse the Deodex process? (ie turning all files back to odex files again like stock)
I believe if you look at the thread deodex bell files from NFHimself he has a backup to restore odex

and chillin, canadian Motorola Atrix
Hey all,
I'm running rooted 4.5.91 stock OTA 2.3.4 GB with locked BL. Is it possible to get deodexed without flashing one of the many ROMS out there?
Tried searching but couldn't find what I was looking for.
Thanks
Edit:I finally found a link that should help anyone else who is in my shoes. Just finished running this and now I'm deodexed on 4.5.91 without having to flash one of the custom roms! Just extract the files to a folder on your computer and follow the OP's directions.

I was browsing the 4.3 OTA beans thread and came up with a few questions. I only want the 4.3 to get my Galaxy Gear working with my GN2. I really have no other desire to flash custom roms and mod my device.
What is the difference between the ODEX and DEODEX? I have no idea what either of these is or mean. I am unsure of which version to flash to my i605 that is currently stock, but will shortly be rooted and ready to flash.
Also, what version of ODIN do i need to use to flash the necessary firmware?
Any and all assistance is greatly appreciated.
After doing some research I think I've learned a little about the odex vs. deodex...I'm not into theming so I guess the odex version would be fine for me...
In the system/app directory of your phones root storage there is by default a .odex file that follows each and every built in app. The ROM builder removes the .odex file to make it easier to theme your ROM. If you are simply looking for a stock experience, use the ODEX. As for ODIN, whatever version is latest, or whatever version is linked in the Root Instruction post will work. I have v3.07.
IIRC, Nephilim ROM has Gear support

Hello,
Firs off I'm new here so a lot of this stuff is still foreign to me. I was able to get a brand new Verizon S4 with NC5. I have not even opened the box yet.
I want to upgrade to the best OTA which also has a stable, reliable, debloated custom ROM available similar to say CleanRom. Which OTA should I upgrade to? If it's not the newest VZW has put out, will I get notifications every day asking me to upgrade?
Which custom ROMs are similar to CleanRom? I was stability, reliability, speed and tethering.
Thanks!
Empty Galaxy is a killer kitkat rom
Stang5litre edition is a great lollipop rom. He and klabit87 are working on some fun stuff right now too.
There are a few ways to update. Safestrap or flash fire.
Flash fire flashes once in the rom. You have to be careful with it. It can flash the kernel and bugger things up.
Safestrap is a recovery before the rom boots but is only compatible with kitkat. You have to flash a kitkat kernel to use when flashing when using lollipop roms. Then flash the lollipop kernel and boot the rom.
Muniz_ri makes some stock rooted roms with older bootloaders so you can always go back.
Always uninstall SDM with titanium backup when using a stock prerooted rom so it doesn't try to update the phone and ruin the fun.

Thanks for the reply Brian! Since posting, I taught myself a few things but your tips certainly will help!
I installed Eclipse ROM and so far so good. The one exception is I lost my Verizon voicemail. How can I add that? I have my old S4 laying around, also on NC5. Can it be copied from there?
I'm not sure. if the old one is rooted, you may be able to copy the apk to the directory of the new phone and change the permissions and reboot and have it work but I'm not sure.
I am looking to flash the Deodexed Rooted ROM from here:

I am wondering something about it. Obviously I know it comes without all the crap apps on it that just take up space. My question is, if I flash this in my TWRP (currently running Pure N5 Port ROM) can I get official over the air updates from T-Mobile should they have any or will it not work?
Which ROM would I have to flash to get OTA updates from T-Mobile?
Just the basic STOCK ROM?
If I flash the STOCK ROM can I root my phone and get rid of the bloatware and still get the OTA updates from T-Mobile?
If anyone can help me and explain this all to me I would be forever grateful. For as much as I love the Pure N5 Port ROM I am having a few issues with it. One being speaker during a call does not work for more than a few minutes. No matter who I call the other person on the other end after a few minutes has a really hard time understanding me as I sound distorted.
Anyway thanks again to all for reading and thanks to anyone that can help!
You have to be on stock unrooted to be able to install official ota files, but you can always just install the corresponding Odin firmware file when an update comes out if you need to be rooted and/or on a custom ROM
