Question, If i want to just replace the icons from the system.apk's in an odex rom, do I first need to deodex the rom or can i just do the quick (and sometimes messy) route of using 7zip to replace the res folder inside the system apk's with my modified res folder?
If I need to deodex the rom first, I'm guessing it's the same procedure to deodex an i9100 rom as it is for the i9000 rom?
Thanks!
So no-one knows if the icons can be themed without deodexing it first? I'm not asking how to do it, just if it's necessary.

Hi,
Would asomeone of you guys be so kind to tell me how to odex FRAMEWORK files (jars) and system apps. Especialy, do it in batch - once for all files.
Maybe some script, a working one, becouse I unsuccessfuly tried the scripts on xda for odex ICS, and i used SGS3's BOOTCLASSPATH
from init.rc
BOOTCLASSPATH /system/framework/core.jar:/system/framework/core-junit.jar:/system/framework/bouncycastle.jar:/system/framework/ext.jar:/system/framework/framework.jar:/system/framework/framework2.jar:/system/framework/android.policy.jar:/system/framework/services.jar:/system/framework/apache-xml.jar:/system/framework/filterfw.jar:/system/framework/sec_edm.jar:/system/framework/seccamera.jar

And you maybe know if it is possible to odex custom rom files where you don't have the original odex files...
so using the odex files from stock rom (the same the custom rom is based on).
I tried it with some script and bootlooped...
What I would like to do, is to take a custom rom and odex it. As quickly as possible.
I would love using a custom rom but not losing the advantages of ODEXed rom...
I would appreciete your help.
Rgds,
hi!
I need a bit of info from you guys.
I'm trying to mod systemUI from stock JB, ruxuma and I can't find anything clear about the procedure.
as I understand first deodex, mod systemUI, odex back and flash?
I'm not getting the last part, odex back and flash...
do I have to delete systemIU.odex when I flash the mod systemUI?
does the mod systemUi needs to be odexed back to flash it on stock Rom?
thank you!
If you deodexed your stock rom for applying various framework mods and want to Reodex and remove mods then flash the zip given and avoid reflashing your ROM. Factory resetting deodexed stock isc cause bootloop.
After reodexing you can format your phone..

hmm, DEX means Dalvik executable. ODEX means Optimised DEX.
stock sony rom is odexed, it has faster app loading while booting. In "/system/framework/" there are some .odex files, when we use any tool to deodex any ROM, these .odex files are combined in the file belonging to that .odex file as for example in framework folder there are files core.jar and core.odex, when you deodex, the core.odex file is combined with the core.jar and the output is single file that is core.jar.
The benefit of deodexing is that if we want to do some changes to those framework files, we only have to make changes to one file. the drawback is that your phone will boot little bit slow.
Can i make changes to Framework-res.apk and Systemui.apk Odexed versions by Decompiling it and then recompiling it using APKTools...and can i make it work on my stock Odexed ROM? or will it go bootloop or FCs?
This thing is really bugging me!
Thanks in Advance:good:
