Greetings and Salutations, Epic 4G Touch Owners and other curious parties!
Disclaimer: Just reading this may cause your head to burst, your phone to catch fire, dogs and cats may do the tango! I am not responsible for any bad stuff that happens from you reading or acting on the information in this thread.
If any ROM authors want to use this fix in their ROMs, I'm completely cool with that. A quick kudos in your credits section would be nice, though.
Background: One of the things that really peeves me off about Sprint is that they want us to think we always have 3G service. I know that I don't have 3G in all of the areas I travel, and I also don't when I am roaming.
Thankfully, the fix is quite simple! It was a bit more difficult than the fix for HTC Sense ROMs as the smali edit was not quite as simple.
This was my primary reason for rooting my phone, that's how aggravating it is for me.
Let's change this:

Credits
Calkulin, sextape, sfhub, Other brave folks - For providing the leaked ROMs for me to fiddle with.
Calkulin - (indirectly) helped me find how to fix this for Sense ROMs which I wrote up here.
Samsung - for a relatively good phone. Hopefully the weird auto-brightness and battery life will be fixed next update.
The brave XDA members who try these instructions and report their success or failure!!!
XDA for being a great source of information!!!
XDA members for thinking outside of the box!!!
The fix:
This fix requires editing your SystemUI.apk file. If you are using one of the fine custom ROMs on XDA, be aware that the you or the author may have already made changes to the SystemUI.apk file, so using my file IS NOT RECOMMENDED.
If you are using Calk's E4GT 2 v1.6 ROM, you can safely use my attached SystemUI.apk file. It may work with other "stock-ish" ROMs, but this is the one I based it on. The attachment will NOT work on stock FF18.
This mod relies on the assumption that your ROM developer has not deleted any of the 1x graphic files in the ROM. The developer CAN theme or otherwise change the images as long as the file names remain the same.
What you need to perform this mod:
1. An Epic 4G Touch ROM ZIP file, or a phone running a Epic 4G Touch ROM -- AOSP ROMs already have the correct indicators.
2. The Java SDK -- So you can run Smali.
3. Smali/Baksmali -- So you can decompile/compile the classes.dex file.
4. Android SDK -- To push/pull files from your phone (adb only).
5. Some sort of archive tool (such as WinRAR, 7zip, etc).
5. A text editor capable of editing UNIX-formatted files. I recommend Notepad++, personally.
Ease Of Use Tips: Install Java SDK first, then Android SDK (if you need adb). Download the smali files (smali-1.3.2.jar and baksmali-1.3.2.jar at the time of this writing) to a new "working" folder where we can do our magic.
KEEP A COPY OF YOUR PRE-EDITED SYSTEMUI.APK FILE, just in case!
Instructions:
1a. [If you are using a ROM ZIP File]: Use 7zip/WinRAR/WinZip to open the ROM ZIP file. Navigate to system\app and extract SystemUI.apk to your "working" folder.
1b. [If you want to grab SystemUI.apk from your running phone]: Use adb to pull SystemUI.apk to your working folder. Example: adb pull /system/app/SystemUI.apk C:\Working\SystemUI.apk
To avoid problems, ONLY USE adb to pull/push SystemUI.apk. Phone apps may cause unknown issues.
2. Go to a command prompt in your "working" folder and run the following command: java -jar baksmali-1.3.2.jar -o SystemUI/ SystemUI.apk
3. Browse to your "working" folder and see that there is now an SystemUI folder inside, with other subfolders. Browse to SystemUI\com\android\systemui\statusbar\policy.
4. Edit the file called NetworkController.smali with your favorite UNIX-format compatible text editor and look for the following text. The key is to search for .line 751. Edit the line below that is in BOLD.
Code:
.line 751
:pswitch_e8
iget-boolean v3, p0, Lcom/android/systemui/statusbar/policy/NetworkController;->mShowAtLeastThreeGees:Z
[B]if-nez v3, :cond_103[/B]
5. Change that line to say #if-nez v3, :cond_103 (add the # at the beginning to comment it out)
6. Save NetworkController.smali
7. Go back to your command prompt, change to your "working" folder and issue the following command: java -jar smali-1.3.2.jar SystemUI/ -o newclasses.dex
8. If there weren't any errors, go ahead and rename the original classes.dex to classes.old and rename newclasses.dex to classes.dex.
9. Open SystemUI.apk in your favorite archiver (if you closed it earlier).
10. Drag the file called classes.dex from your "working" folder into SystemUI.apk and replace the one already in there.
11. Run the following commands to get the file on your phone:
Code:
adb remount
adb push SystemUI.apk /system/app/SystemUI.apk
adb shell stop
adb shell start
You should hear your bootup sound and then the changes should be instantly applied.
To Test:
1. Dial ##DATA# (##3282#) on your phone.
2. Enter your MSL (can be found by typing getprop ril.MSL from Terminal Emulator or adb shell).
3. Scroll to Others at the bottom of the list.
4. Click on HDR/1X Selection
5. Change from Hybrid Mode to CDMA Only Mode. This puts your phone in 1X only mode.
6. Press OK.
7. Verify 1X icon comes within 30 seconds, if you have service.
8. Repeat steps 4-7, substituting Hybrid Mode for CDMA Only Mode to switch back.
How I found this: The files in ICS are different than Gingerbread. Looking for 1x led me to NetworkController.smali. There is a lookup called mShowAtLeastThreeGees (which I thought was hilarious). There are 6 locations that reference this boolean value. The correct one is the a couple of lines before a reference to DATA_1X. I wish I noticed that earlier as I was commenting out each one at a time until I found the last one, which coincidentally was right before DATA_1X. That's what happens when you've got too many things going on at once.
Please let me know whether or not this worked for you. I'd like to make a list of ROMs (with applicable mods) this works for or doesn't work for.
I will do whatever I can to help if you are struggling. If there's something you don't understand, please let me know. I can update the instructions if I accidentally wrote something wrong.
Great work once again
Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk 2
Finally!!! I will give it a go right now... mShowAtLeastThreeGees - that IS pretty funny. I guess Google programmers do have a sense of humor.
EDIT: Works like a charm. Here's modded SystemUI.apk from Calkuin's newest FE22 ROM, for those who don't want to mess with SMALI edits.
Awesome work! Now help us find where they've buried the lines to hide AM/PM in there

i'll +1 that. Its one of the main reasons I can't stand TW.
nice work
Thanks Nivron. Here is the systemUI.apk for the stock deodexed rom.
Nice work.
Haven't tested it just yet but it looks like they changed it from line 752 to 751 in FF02 for anyone wanting to make the change in the latest build.
Is it possible for someone to update this for the new FF02 build?

I tried dropping it into system/app, which caused the device to lock up and FC systemui. I did a battery pull, and now I'm left with no UI icons, etc.
I think it's due to no space left in my /system/ folder. I deleted the failed install of S-voice, which cleared up 20MB, and now it works!
---------- Post added at 04:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:46 PM ----------
So I tried changing my mode from Hybrid to CDMA only, and waited about a minute, and my device stayed on 3G. I even rebooted just to be sure.
Thoughts?
I downloaded the modified FF02 systemui.apk file, and used ES File Explorer to paste it into /systemUI/app/, after backing up (adb pull) the stock systemUI.apk

You can use a odex rom and with root explorer delete both SystemUI files and replace it with the SyetemUI.apk posted in this thread, it will work I have tried it.
now I'm assuming that you can do the same thing if you know how to take out the systemUI from your odex rom and deodex it and then do the mod.
OP updated for FF18, small change (.line 752 to .line 751). Note that the attachment is still for Calk's E4GT 2 v1.6 ROM and won't work right with FF18.

This is a basic theme that changes the H icon for HSPA in the status bar to a 4G icon for CM7.0.2 Final and Nightly 41-42.
I've included a Flashable Zip for CWR and an Icon pack if you would rather do it yourself.
Let me know how it goes and if you like the theme.
As for special requests for 4G icons, please attach a copy of SystemUI.apk if you're on 2.3, a copy of Framework-res.apk if you're on 2.2 or a copy of the theme APK if it's a ThemeManager theme. I just cant download or find every rom or theme that is requested.

You could just use the images and copy and replace them in the apk and adb push. Back up first because playing with framework files can soft brick devices easily (boot loop)

Pull the framework-res.apk from your rom and pm the file and I'll post it up after editing and zipaligning it. Or you can just use ninjamorph and use the icon pack.

Thank you!
open up your zip rom folder on the computer, then go /system/framework/framework-res.apk and drag that apk file out, open that apk, best and easy with 7-zip program and put them in there, just close it up after, saves itself.. and adb push framework-res.apk /system/framework
same with Anroidian.apk and Cyanbread.apk

1. Use root explorer or adb to pull SystemUI.apk from the system/app folder
2. On your computer rename SystemUI.apk to SystemUI.apk.zip
3. Open SystemUI.apk.zip (dont extract just open archive) using 7zip and go to res\drawable-hdpi folder
4. From the 4Gicons.zip posted in the OP copy the 8 png's and paste them into the System.apk.zip in res\drawable-hdpi.
5. Rename SystemUI.apk.zip back to SystemUI.apk
6. Zipalign APK(Step not absolutely necessary but optimizes the apk) put SystemUI.apk into tools folder of AndroidSDK. Open compand prompt and run this line "zipalign -v 4 SystemUI.apk SystemUIzipaligned.apk". A new APK called SystemUIzipaligned.apk will be created in the tools folder. Rename it back to SystemUI.apk
7. Use root explorer or Adb to push SystemUI.apk back to system/app folder
8. Using root explorer long press on SystemUI.apk and select permissions, place checks to User: read and write; Group read; Others: read, leave all other unchecked. ( i dont know how to change permissions using adb, this step might not be necessary if you dont have root explorer)
8. SystemUI.apk might force close constantly after copying it back. So, turn of screen of the phone, then back on but dont unlock, then hold power button and choose power off or reboot.
9.And your done

So I've had some requests to recreate the edit to re-enable user selection of font size in the touchwiz Ice Cream Sandwich builds. I am not on touchwiz that much so I thought I would share it with the rest of the community in hopes that those who do put more time into touchwiz could incorporate it into their roms for everyone to use.

The edit is actually quite easy, as the preference is simply being hidden in java. With that said, you need Settings.apk, smali/baksmali, adb knowledge, and some text editor
Instructions:
Pull Settings.apk from your phone. If you're cooking this into a ROM then obviously just grab Settings.apk from /system/app
Code:
adb pull /system/app/Settings.apk
Note: This assumes you are editing from a deodexed build. If you have an odexed ROM you can deodex your apk, make your changes, and then reodex.
Next you'll want to open the apk and pull out classes.dex. You can ultimately use apktool as well if it will work for you. I've been having some problems with classes and apktool on occasion and find baksmali to be a sure way to get it right. One you have classes.dex decompile it.
Code:
java -jar baksmali-x.xx.jar -o <[B]output directory[/B]> classes.dex
This will give you a decompiled smali output in the directory you used in bold above.
Navigate without the out folder to /com/android/settings/DisplaySettings.smali and open it with a text editor.
Look for the following, and remove the line in red from DisplaySettings.smali:
Code:
iget-object v0, v0, Lcom/android/settings/DisplaySettings;->mFontSizePref:Landroid/preference/ListPreference;
move-object/from16 v21, v0
[COLOR="Red"]invoke-virtual/range {v20 .. v21}, Landroid/preference/PreferenceScreen;->removePreference(Landroid/preference/Preference;)Z[/COLOR]
And that's the hard part. =P Now recompile the classes for your Settings.apk.
Code:
java -Xmx512M -jar smali-x.xx.jar <output from above> -o newclasses.dex
Rename newclasses.dex to classes.dex,you'll have to delete your original if you're in the same folder, and move the new compiled classes.dex back into Settings.apk.
Push Settings.apk back to your phone.
Code:
adb push Settings.apk /system/app
Change your font size in menu>settings>display
Hope this helps some of you and I look forward to seeing more ROMs with font sizes! =P

Yeah, some samsung apps don't recompile correctly with apktool. This is why I used baksmali to decompile instead.

newest baksmali solved the issue. Also you may want to edit instructions to say delete every instance of the line in Displaysettings.smali. I only deleted it one time the first time i tried and the font size option didn't show up in settings>display. After I went back and deleted every instance of that line from the file it worked. Awesome job on showing how to do this mod and thanks for the help with my troubleshooting.

It should, I don's see why not. There's only one way to find out. Copy this file to the /system/app directory using Root Explorer or something similar. Back up your own Settings.apk prior to that. If it doesn't work, replace it with the original file.

If you use a deodexed apk on an odex rom, it will work, however, youll want to remove the odex file as well.
S2 OK
Also work on Galaxy S2. Thk.
This CWM script will reodex any custom ROM.
With BOOTCLASSPATH edit in dexo.sh it can work on any ROM and phone.
Reodexing gives some people perceivable speed up. And it frees data partition from system dalvik cache. So dalvik-cache rebuild is also accelerated.
I ran it with stock kernel (root injected). And had problems with running it on any custom kernel.
http://galaxytree.net/bravomail/universalOdex.zip
Also a good example of output from shell script into CWM console.

Awesome.
Anyway to run this from ADB via PC for individul files rather than a whole ROM? I have been doing it manualy with this same script from TT but it takes a while typing it all in for each file.
This is what i do for individual files using dexopt wrapper:
Make sure you are currently runing an odex ROM or the script will not work
Move the dexopt wrapper file to /system/bin and cmod it 775 (you can get this file by unzipping the file in the OP)
move the files you want to odex to /mnt/extSdCard (for this exanple I will use SystemUI.apk)
Open an ADB window and type the following:
Code:
adb shell
su
mount -o remount,rw /system
chmod 777 /system
cd /mnt/extSdCard
dexopt-wrapper SystemUI.apk SystemUI.odex /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/fram
ework/seccamera.jar
It will take a couple secoonds and it should spit out a "success" when done. If not, you typed something wrong.
Then you need to sign your new .odex file with the odex on your current system by typing the following code:
Code:
busybox dd if=/system/app/SystemUI.odex of=SystemUI.odex bs=1 count=20 skip=52 seek=52 conv=notrunc
obviuosly if you were dealing with a file from say /system/framework you would change the line above to point to /system/framework instead of /system/app
Now you will have 2 files on your extSdCard:
SystemUI.apk (the original deodexed file you started with)
SystemUI.odex (the file the script just made)
Use 7zip or winrar to extract the classes.dex from the SystemUI.apk
Chmod them 644 and push them to the appropriate folder, for our example it would be /system/app
restart the phone and you should now be good.
Thats a lot of typing to go through for each file so a script or batch file would be awesome to be able to run and save some time. I like to run odex ROMs because they do seem to be faster but YRMV. I generally use DSIXDA's Kitchen to deodex the files I want to modify so I can get to the Smali files. I make the changes to the file and test them out in a dedoxed enviornment. When I know they work, i re-odex them (with the process above) and push them back into my stock odexed rom.
Not trying to step on your thread OP, just posting an alternate method of doing just individual files intead on an entire ROM.
Obviously credit for the process above goes to Tommy T!
ThanksTommy!

That's exactly what I do as well.. I just baksmali the odex when I need to edit the smali.
If you are already in the odexed rom environment, you do not have to include the bootclasspath
Awesome bro, simply awesome! I used a similar script during my brief EVO 3D days that I always ran after flashing a new rom and I considered it priceless!
Thanks man..

Holy cow amigo. You started a bunch of threads. A little credit to original author would have been nice if you took the work and revamped it. All credit cause you didn't.
Sharing is caring. But I suggest you put where you got the script, etc, as well as the original author.
edit. upon further review, i see that you did change some things, mainly removing the original header (which is absolutely lame) and made it work with CWM. Also, you set a static BOOTCLASSPATH - which defeats the purpose of this script!!
Let me check my pms and emails. Someone contacted me a long time ago asking me review to their changes. Maybe it was you lol.

Theming a keyboard may be common knowledge to some of the amazing Devs here. But to a noob like me, it took some research and time to get it working without breaking the original signature (That's the trick!). I searched the forum and it doesn't look like anyone has posted a "How To" on theming a keyboard, so I thought I'd share my experience with you all.
**Some of these steps may seem elementary, but I tried to explain everything in layman's terms so even a beginner can theme a keyboard.
// Before you get started:
You must have a working environment setup. Check out QBKing77's awesome video "How to install the android-sdk" to get that going.http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1614922
Make sure you also have installed:
Notepad++ (for editing xml) // (www.notepad-plus-plus.org)
7zip (for extracting apks) // (www.7-zip.org)
the image editor of your choice. I use Paint.Net(www.getpaint.net), and Gimp(www.gimp.org). Both FREE!
apktool (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1755243)
LatinImeDictionaryPack.apk (drop in the 'system\app' folder on your phone. Only for the LatinIME.apk) Grab it here: http://d-h.st/Ebb
// This method has worked with every keyboard that I have encountered so far. I will use 'LatinIME.apk' for reference, as that is the stock ICS keyboard. //
WARNING.. DO NOT POST DISTRIBUTION LINKS TO ANY MODDED 'Swype.apk'. XDA HAS A STANDING ORDER FROM NUANCE (MAKERS OF SWYPE), THAT DOES NOT ALLOW SUCH LINKS TO BE POSTED.
1) To start make sure you have a working copy of your keyboard apk; grab it out of a ROM, download it, or use a file manager with root access (like Root Explorer) to copy it to your SD card then to your computer.
**I would suggest dropping the keyboard apk into a folder on the desktop, seperate from anything else, and making a backup of the original so that you have a spare copy.
2) Using 7zip extract the 'res\drawable-xhdpi' folder into the folder you created. This folder will contain the pngs that control some of the keys, outlined in red on this pic:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Color these pngs to match using your favorite editor and save (bucket fill with Paint.Net is a breeze!)
3) Now that your pngs are themed.. Within the folder that you created containing your apk, hold down shift and right click. Select "Open Command Window Here" to fire up command prompt.
4) Next to decompile the keyboard apk with apktool (again using 'LatinIME.apk' for reference, but the apk may be of a different name; SamsungIME.apk, HTC_IME.apk, etc.).
Type this command:
Code:
apktool d LatinIME.apk
When it's done, you will see a folder with the apk name appear, within the folder you created. Click into it and you should see at minimun a 'res' folder and a 'smali' folder.
5) Navigate to 'res\values' folder. Depending on the keyboard you are working on, the xml controlling the remaining key colors will be contained in the 'colors.xml' or 'styles.xml' file. Open with Notepad++, and change the color codes as needed. Save and close.
6) Go back to the root of the folder containing your apk, and fire up command prompt (if it's not still open). Now it's time to build using this command (again using 'LatinIME.apk' for reference, but the apk may be of a different name; SamsungIME.apk, HTC_IME.apk, etc.)
Code:
apktool b LatinIME
7) When it's done building, you should have 4 folders minimum now (res, smali, build, dist) and it's time for the key to success. Navigate into the 'dist' folder and you will see the "Built" apk. Open it with 7zip, and extract the 'resources.arsc' file to your folder. Close 7zip.
8) Now it's time to pull it all together. Navigate back to the ORIGINAL keyboard apk, and open with 7zip.
Copy (you can drag and drop with 7zip) the 'resources.arsc' that you extracted from your "Built" apk, into the "ORIGINAL" apk overwriting the file. Then with 7zip still open and the apk loaded, navigate (within 7zip) into the 'res\drawable-xhdpi' folder where you should see the list of unthemed pngs. Simply drop your edited pngs into this folder. Close 7zip and you're done here!
9) Finally, take your "ORIGINAL" but themed apk, and push it back the 'system\app' folder on your phone.
Fix permissions to 'rw-r--r--' (only check everything under 'read' and Owner under 'write')
Reboot, and bask in the glory of your new themed keyboard!
**Alternatively, grab my empty zip installer here: http://d-h.st/oKG to flash in recovery. You must drop your themed apk into the system\app folder of the zip and save. Also, the zip already contains the 'LatinImeDictionaryPack.apk'
Please hit THANKS if I helped!! And please keep this thread alive!

I actually created a folder 'C:\apktool' where I dropped everything, then added that folder to the Path system variable; same method as you would add the SDK. Otherwise, drop it into the 'platform-tools' folder within the android-sdk. When configured properly, you should be able to open command prompt in any directory, simply type 'apktool' and see a list of commands.

This method will not work on .odex keyboard apk's, at least to my knowledge but I've always run deodexed ROMS. However, check to see if the keyboard apk you are working with even contains an odex file; a lot of them do not. If it does, you could always grab the apk off the web, mod it, and install it after removing the original files.
Thank you for the walk through, this is awesome
Hey Rompnit. Ok, I was having trouble getting apktool to run on my computer. That's what I was talking about on morphology anyway, so I was trying to learn how to theme an app and somehow was lead to morphology and got all caught up over there. Lol. But ya, I'm gonna have to crap clean my laptop to use this. Thanks. See ya over there

This method WILL in fact work on odexed keyboards. Theming for an odex base is no different then a de-odexed base. You are not making any smali adjustments here so nothing that concerns the odex, thus it will not be affected.

The Goods
About My Script:
I have been using and working on this script for sometime now, I started back when ICS first came out and we where no longer able to decompile apks in 1 step. All of the mods and things that I have posted on xda in the last year, have been made with this script. This script allows for editing those apks with a few buttons clicks. It can edit apks from any version of android. It has been posted on the Team Venum Forum and has been working for many of the Team Venum members.
With this script you will be able to:
Compile/decompile (Odexed and Deodexed) apks and jars
Make CWM zips of your projects
Flash and Push things to the phone
Make and install signed apk projects
Search decompiled apks
and much much more...
Sections:
Header bar: This displays the script info and current project.
AIO Tool: These are all options that you can use to mod. They will all be highlighted if they are available, otherwise they will be grayed out and have a short description why it’s not available.
Mid Section: 11 and 100 will always available. 11 allows you to choose your project from the “place-here-for-modding” folder. 100 will refresh the menu (usually for connecting/dis your phone).
Odex Section: These options will only be enabled if a phone is plugged in. The phone you are working with is needed for odexing and deodexing.
- 20 Deodex the entire ROM on your phone
- 21 Deodex just one apk or jar file
- 22 Odex the entire ROM on your phone
- 23 Odex a single file
Special Items section: These are portable apps and options.
- 91 Open Color edit. Allows you to visually view and change the color.xml file
- 92 Compile all .9 images inside the dot9 folder
- 93 MD5 Checker – Seldom used, handy to double-check MD5 to verify good file downloads.
- 94 Phone/Emulator – menu for phone and emulator choices.
- 95 Search tools – app to search inside smali or res files (ie textColor="#ffc0c0c0"). (Must have C++ runtime or PRGrep installed)
- 96 Open Notepad++ – best Windows/Android editor that has smali and log syntax highlighting tweek.
- 97 Color Wheel – color wheel with cool color drag and drop from anything feature.
- 98 Color Change – for smali only. Converts from hex to smali.
- 99 Options & Misc – set Header Bar options, clean folders and check logs, Sounds, and color theme for the Script.
- ** Exit the App – usually a better option for closing the Script because it closes the ADB running in the background.
I tried to designed this to make editing apks and doing things with your phone as easy as possible.

So please forgive the noobish question, but I've been doing some reading in preparation of trying to learn how to theme.
Could I literally create a theme for a TW Rom using this tool? I say SystemUI mentioned but not Framework, so I wasn't sure if I could create an entire theme using this tool or not.
You sir are the man! Thank you for such a great tool. :thumbup::beer:

Thanks for all your work to make it easier for us. Great Tools. :victory:
Working on a new version the last few days that will have the ability to, work with odexed ROMs. It will be able to make a flashable zip to deodex and odex the ROM. It will also be able to pull a file deodex it, then you can mod it. Then it will compile it, reodex it and push it back to the phone.
Still got a bit of work to do on it, but I wanted to see if there was interest in this, or if there was something else in regards to odexing that you would like to see added.

Yes you can mod any apk or jar with this. The only other thing you would need is some sort of image editor. Like photoshop or paint.net

Working on a new version the last few days that will have the ability to, work with odexed ROMs. It will be able to make a flashable zip to deodex and odex the ROM. It will also be able to pull a file deodex it, then you can mod it. Then it will compile it, reodex it and push it back to the phone.
Still got a bit of work to do on it, but I wanted to see if there was interest in this, or if there was something else in regards to odexing that you would like to see added.

Great concept. Are you sticking strictly with the apk's or will this script be able to deal the jar files as well for odex/deodexing?

Thanks, I'm going to use this as my starting point for making themes!
So the new AIO is almost ready. I have some people testing it out. What is everyone's thoughts about a free and a pro version for $1. The pro version would allow for batch odexing and deodexing of a rom in minutes with one click. The free version would still allow for editing and modding odexed files the same way we do deodexed now.
With this it will make it so there is no reason to have a deodexed ROM.
New things that have been added are
-odexing full ROMs
-deodexing full ROMs
-odexing and deodexing single files
-editing of odexed apks and jars with no extra steps
-making/restoring/deleting/and fixing md5 mismatch for nands
-Tons of optimized code
-Redone most menus for easier viewing
-More I am sure I am forgetting
Let mess know what you think. I would definitely like some opinions.

You do so much for us that I think giving back is always good. I am up for it.

A dollar for the project version..?
I say go for it..a dollar is not much and some devs would charge way more for those types of options
