2.1 stock apps

I'm currently using the ewjet Rom with custom kernel which is really good. I miss/need the stock 2.1 (b.0.1?) Keyboard,browser and launcher system apks as i don't really like the ones that come with ewjet.
I'm currently away from my pc for a week and don't have any means of flashing the original 2.1b firmware to try and copy the apps. I'm not even sure if I have to use that specific firmware or would any other 2.1 apk work? I have actually googled all 3 apks but none work :-( is anyone able to help by attaching them or know what I can do. ThAnks

That's why it is important to back up before flashing onto a new ROM. Anyways here it is..
If I'm right, text input is the default android keyboard..

[Q] How to convert a deoxexed ROM back to Odex?

I guess, my question is clear. How do I convert a DEODEX ROM back into ODEX?
I've searched the forum but can't seem to find it
Oh yeah, it's DEODEX to ODEX, not ODEX to DEODEX.
Thanks!
EDIT:
LOLWUT I just found this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1402233
Gotta try it first, I'll post the result later
Just tried it,
That script doesn't work with CyanoAce
Guess I gotta reflash another ROM :/
Or anyone still care to help?

I tried to see a way to make a FlashTool installable pre-rooted rom, but seems like there's no way
As of now, i'm trying to make a pre-rooted custom rom for LWW, and Android Kitchen allows the creation of one. This, of course, will be a .zip file which has to be installed from CWM, so i'll still need to do all the steps you did to get CWM, so, as far as i know, we're stuck into rooting the long way

He flashed stock kernels... there's no problem with that even on locked bootloaders.

How could he try rooting using stock kernel since that's what he says he tried to achieve?

Come on guys,
i dont want be blamed because of any war in italy
please please :highfive:
From history you should know that Italians never start wars, we always wait for others to start, jump in after a while so we know which side has most chances of winning and eventually switch sides at the end

I'm on my way to create a clean ics rom PRE-ROOTED, i just don't have enough time, if you would like to give me a hand i will apreciate that.
In the mean time just root your phone the long way, update to 4.0.4 an then install CWM Recovery and finally install this ROM, is the one i'm using right now and run really smooth, and it's pre rooted.
If you need help with any of those steps pm me.

[Q] Deodex stock rom?

Hello guys, I have a rooted GT-I9300 on stock android 4.3 with philz touch recovery.
So I like S5 a lot, but I can't afford one obviously. However, I would like to flash S5 stuffs like launcher and accuweather widget on this device. I've been struggling for some time, trying to find a way to deodex the stock android 4.3 rom. I came across a few methods like the xUltimate, titanium backup and so on, but none of these methods seems to work on our beloved S3... I'm not sure whether xUltimate works for S3 but so far I never come across S3 user who successfully deodex their device using this method. Titanium backup doesn't seems to work too since it only deodex apps, not the firmware... I know I can easily do this by flashing a deodexed stock rom, but I don't really want to flash another rom yet...
I'm sorry to ask this, but I'm running out of idea, so guys, is there any way to deodex the stock android 4.3 rom so that I can install mod like S5 launcher? Thank you for your help!
Any helps guys? I really can't find a proper solution
Why not use one of the stock roms here on xda that have already been deodexed by an expert?

Odex rom seems to perform better and more battery-friendly compared to a deodexed rom. I think it would be better for me to learn how to deodex/re-odex the rom so that I can re-odex the rom after I finished installing mods to ensure the best performance.
This thread is going down any helps?

My Samsung Galaxy Victory 4G LTE Custom Rom Zip Won't Flash

I've seen no one making a 4.4 rom for the Samsung Galaxy Victory 4G LTE and it's really frustrating because it has similar specs to the Moto G and other 4.4 phones. I saw an xda page for porting roms and I followed all of the instructions. I used the stock rom as the base rom and an omnirom as what I ported. I copied the system apps, framework, fonts, media, and etc. I also signed it with Zip Signer from Google Play.
I just can't seem to find the problem. It won't flash PERIOD. I keep getting an error at the very begining. I extracted the files with Archive Utility on my Macbook running 10.9.4 and did everything there. Once I was done I compressed the folder to make it a zip to flash.
I've never done anything like this before but I have used android for a while and have flashed, unbricked, used a custom rom, and other things like editing APKs with Lucky Patcher and obviously rooted.

Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong? I want to get this right for I can make a 4.4 rom for my Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 T210R and of course share these roms with people who also have these devices and want Kitkat. Every Kitkat rom I've used on my T210R is unusable. A few days ago I flashed a 4.2.2 rom when it said STOCK ROM (which is 4.1.2) but it flashed and the only problem was wifi but I found a wifi.zip file somewhere on here before and flashed it on my T210R and it fixed the wifi. 4.2.2 is a lot nicer than 4.1.2 but I still want Kitkat. I only wanted stock to unbrick. I don't know what I was thinking but I deleted the whole system folder and yeah.... I swore I made a backup before I did anything but it wasn't there.
So anyways does anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

Nah but I've been looking. However mine is hard bricked sooooo. I hope to fix it though. I figured out how to make the roms I edit flash because I hsve done editing of zips and flashed them and I did use that guide to try porting 4.4 to one of my other phones and it flashed but wouldn't get past bootloop
