It seems most of the mods popping up for EVO LTE require a deodexed ROM. Is this the way it is going to go? I know little of the differences. I'm running pure rooted stock. That is ODEX, correct?
I would need to flash the pure stock Deodex to use the mods I'm seeing.
Thanks beforehand for your answers!
What mods are u trying to run? The apple function and google wallet fix only require u do a build.prop edit.

Yes. Stock is odex. ROMs that are odex tend to have apps on hand ready to load faster, as the odex for the apk keeps a bit of the app preloaded and ready to open. But deodex is much easier to mod and theme.
At least, this is my understanding from the last few years of reading. Some prefer odex. I do not. Deodex makes it easier to mod /system on the fly.

can you mix and match? I believe you can.
I'm running stock odex rom but I copied over the modded deodex camera.apk. deleted the camera.odex of course.

Odexed can be themed just as well. I feel odexed is better and runs quicker because their is no dalvic cache. I don't know why people say odexed can't be themed its just a step or two more. Just check the odexed roms threads and you'll see just as many themes as in deodexed roms.

you can either take a deodexed apk and mod it to your liking and then odex it, or deodex and odexed apk, mod it and then re-odex it, using smali/baksmali
Bump for more opinions. How would one test the performance between the two

I want to run the stock rom which is odexed. This mod is a must. I will donate to the person that puts this together for me.

This is not worth people's time.
In an odexed system the apks are broken up between the apk and an odex file.
A dev would need to put both of these together make the mod then create some way to make an odex file that works.
To my knowledge this is impossible with the tools available to us now.
Sorry to be the bringer of bad news

I have looked through many threads and posts, so forgive me if I can't seem to be able to use the search function very well (especially if found elsewhere). My apologies...
With that being said, can the HTCCamera.apk that incorporates the HDR and Panoramic modes be used with the purely STOCK 2.08...3 and Stock Freeza's 3e Kernel? I know my way around Android okay, not great....and know how to do it, permissions, etc. if it is possible. I just need someone to confirm this is possible on STOCK ODEX 2.08...3 ROM.......PLEASEEEE!!!! An advanced Thanks button push for anyone that can help!!
I think so steelh has a guide to enable those features then you can find out how to Odex the apk like users are doing with myn's Odexed ROM then adb push the apk

Could you link it for me please?
When I get back to my dorm I can make a flashable zip that will give you those options, plus a few more options. It's going to be the modified camera apk from my ROM.

Before you put too much time into it, Hdr doesn't actually do anything in the few modded cameras I've tried. It takes the pic, but it's just a normal pic. I asked about that a while back and the consensus seemed to be kernel related. Panorama on the other hand worked great. It's buggy in the ported htc amaze 4G camera but stock camera works right with it.

If you could, that'd be awesome. I only want the camera though, for Panorama, and I am on ODEX 2.08....3, with freeza's kernel. I'd greatly appreciate it.

Hey gang. Just some general.info about odex. Especially with the concern about compatibility.
Open your update.zip. Open the apk in question. Using 7zip, delete the file "classes.dex" from apk. Put apk back into update.zip. Flash.
By leaving the file classes.dex you're wasting space and while chances are slim you might run into trouble later.
Also. I would venture to say 9/10 themes/mods are not smali related...so removal of classes.dex will pose no problem. If the dev in question did modify the dex code, then you would have to remove the odex file anyways...so either way you're not affecting the effect of the flash.
Anyways. Summary. remove classes.dex.

Here it is. Sorry late. It's attached to this post. As always nandroid before flashing.
I'm about to switch to the Warm Rom. I'm not sure if I should switch to deodexed or odexed version though. What's better in your opinion?

..I heared odex roms are a bit faster.
I you want to theme/mod the warm rom yourself to your needs, you should take teh deodexed one.
Deodexed.
Odexed is faster on first boot, not subsequent boots.
You can also use Titanium Backup (pro) to odex your system apps at any time.
This saves on dalvik-cache usage.
Hello,
Probably a very silly question, but I was just wondering whether or not this would work.
Seeing as the status bar, etc are a part of the SystemUI.apk on Android, would simply copying and pasting the file/s from a HTC One S into the same folder/s on the EVO 3D allow for the semi-transparent status bar?
I only ask because of the similarity in screen resolution, or am I missing something out of the equation?
(PS I'm trying to learn as much as I can )
If your using vipers ROM or any ROM that has a tweaks package, fc's, FC's system.ui will force close, tweaks packages has a modded systemui.apk and other files ( framework.res.apk).

Okay, so taking the original files from the S wouldn't work. What about the modded systemui/etc, if I took those and put them into the correct folders, would they work, or...?
No, any ROM with tweaks will fc, now if you want to take the all the files from one phone and force them into your system, well just make sure you do a nandroid because you'll have to restore your system, try this, no guarantee it will work but worth a shot.http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1633333

Ahh, see, I'm on stock Sense 3.6, and was wondering about putting the framework and stuff over for the transparent status bar. I have a Sense 4.0 style launcher that's absolutely brilliant, and pairing it with the transparent status bar, well, it'd look great!
I just wondered if it'd work
I'll give the thread a read
