Deodexed roms will allow you to apply a completely different theme on your phone. You cannot do that with a odexed roms.
Got it, mucho grazi
I get it now as every explaination had to do with themeing and I see why. It really has to do with eliminating some interdependencies as well as I see in the first link. I think I will go with the deodexed version as it will have the best chance of hulu running properly, as I have been unable to get it with any of the odexed, now I see a maybe ;-)

Is there anyone willing or able to port the Hero theme to the stock MT3G ROM?
stock as in, non-rooted? i dont think it's possible to apply themes to non-rooted phones, so porting wouldnt help. but if u are rooted, you can just flash any of the themes without having to port them.

I'm talking about the stock rom that has been slightly modified for root. There are now a couple of them floating around. Only modified boot.img for root and added the file (forgot name) for wifi tether. Thus far, it is the fastest rom for the MT3G but I hate the stock look.
Also it uses odex files, so most themes will not work.
i would like to add my request as well. i have the slightly modded stock (adds root and wifi tethering). thanks!
16gb for hero roms?
does anyone have an idea what would be a good partition set up for a 16gb sdcard for the hero rom?
also it is a class 6 if that makes any difference....
Im running the same rom i think its artizans rom, slightly modified with wifi tether and root (runs the fastest boots up faster then the other stock tmo rooted one) i just want some themes??
3.26.605.1 base + Deodexed

Have you seen this in the developers forum. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=808173
It is a stock deodexed ROM based on the leak in October. It appears to be identical to the official.

Thanks. That ROM is one of the many versions I did find. The only thing is that the superuser app is in Rom.
I have an old pc that I am going to load the kitchen on tomorrow. I like cooking anyhow.
These roms are dz compatible and thought u guys might want to know about them:

The OTA added wifi calling, wifi hotspot built in, and new kernel. There is no reason to use the pre ota, I'm gonna put a pre ota back up when I get a chance, just cause.
First of all, thanks for your work.
Question: I did not use this particular ROM but I did flash a stock G2 ROM - is there any way to get rid of the hideous G2 picture that is displayed during boot?

HAHA, yes, on stock android roms like this, if you go into you /system/media folder, you will see bootanamation.zip, replace that with a custom one.
I haven't been over to the theme section to see if any custom ones were made yet or not. You can make your own, just search these forums how. The directions are in g1 theme section for sure, u could prob use one from there, just not sure how good it will look due to screen res being different. Maybe try one from n1 or evo theme section...
New version plus universal theme template now up.
On the stock rom? I know other roms allow this, but has anyone came up with a way to do it on stock?
No mods out there for this? I will donate some cash if someone could make one, or be very grateful if someone could point me in the right direction to try to make one myself.
most of the ROMS will give you the option to do this.

Yeah I know...I am looking for a mod so I can remove it from the stock rom...
Nova Launcher will do this for you on stock rom.
Yeah Im looking for a mod though, I prefer the stock launcher.
Well first off you won't find any mods for a "stock" rom. You need to be running a deodexed rom to be able to flash edited apk's. And I scanned the sprint section and didn't see a deodexed rom so even if you wanted to try to edit it yourself you would need to wait for someone to post one or deodex a system dump of your own and continue on editing to your liking.
Or just grow some big ones and flash a rom
good day.

I KNOW how frustrating it is...trust me, I do.
When people tell me exactly what I say "Hey, please don't mention _____. I know it works. I'd rather not."
But, honestly, flash a rom.
Not only will you have a BOAT LOAD of extra features...
But you can ignore them completely if you want.
Flash stock kernel/bootanimation...and you're back to that stock feel.
If you're worried about getting updates...you could always fastboot flash stock once 4.0.5 rolls out or whatever the next may be.
Thanks for the replies guys, I have already flashed four different roms..its not that Im scared I just prefer stock. I hated the stock rom on my old evo and had a different rom every week. I just really like this google phone as is (with the exception of not being able to remove the battery/clock )
If someone can PLEASE answer this question for me I would really appreciate it. I recently rooted my S3 so I can download and use rooted apps. I also changed my battery and wifi icons to look like ICS's icons (the blue ones) and removed some the samsung applications with root uninstaller. Will updating to Jellybean ruin my phone or something? Would I need to re-root my phone after installing it when its released? I want to keep all my apps and information as well. I figure this would be a upgrade like how windows does it. T'm new to this just so you guys know.
From another thread someone mention about devs making JB roms for rooted phones which leaves me to my next question
When a dev pushes out the updated JB ROM how will that be different compare to how samsung does it? Will it remove all my apps and personal information?Or is it like upgrading a operating system like windows? Also would there version of JB be like a stock rom or like Samsung with touch wize. I still want my camera to work as well as wifi. I heard from other thread they dont seem to work when updating roms?

Any rom that a developer makes is not going to be an official release and therefore will need to be flashed, this will wipe everything. Usually when people flash roms they use a tool such as Titanium Backup to backup all their apps and stuff. If you don't want to lose any data you would have to wait for an OTA (over the air) update for JB, this will keep all your data in tact although to do a OTA update you have to have all the stock apps I believe.

Im new to the terms.. isnt flash the same as install?
Also, I used Odin to root my phone, How would I go about flashing the JB rom to my phone? Hopefully I'm saying this right. The thing I dont get since Samsung is releasing JB to the s3 why would the JB work flawless with the s3. Couldnt they use the Nexus 7's JB and port it to the S3. I'm still trying to understand how all this works. I dont want to have any hardware issues, like my camera or wifi not working from what i heard in the past.
Good for you on successfully rooting your phone and doing a few things to make it suit you more better. But you will have to do some searching and alot of reading to understand some more.
Right now your phone is rooted Samsung doesn't want to update your phone cause you've already kinda said I don't like the way you do things samsung by rooting your phone. If you want, you can unroot your phone and flash a stock jelly bean rom when and if it gets released and then re-root your phone and do some more changes if you need or want to with the new update. Issue with this is that you have to wait and it takes longer for Samsung to release updates than third party developers can create them, there are pros and cons to doing third party roms same with using stock manufacture releases. its all comes down to the person you are and what you want from your phone. No one can tell you what to do and what is right to do thats your choice because mainly there are lots of choices with these phones.
With that being said its rumoured that samsung will be releasing jelly bean faster than it did other updates, but thats a rumour still. I haven't been following the development of the SG3 lots as I'm pretty happy with my rooted ICS at the moment and don't mind waiting. I don't think there is a clean stable Jelly Bean rom out there at the moment, I know they are coming and are being worked on very hard but the great teams at XDA. I also know the international version has a little more support than the North American versions.
When and if you decide to get a third party rom there are different ways you can install or flash them. Developers will almost always have clear instructions on how to install them, usually requires you backing up cause you'll lose everything and downloading a zip file putting it onto your phone and installing it with Clock Work Mod, if you don't know what that is search for it there is lots of info on it. You can also flash the updates with odin but I believe Clock Work Mod "CWM" is the better way of doing it.
Also just because jelly bean is on other devices doesn't mean its easy to bring it over to another device there are hardware differences, especially between manufactures, features are different and lots and lots of other things, its not like windows and you cant put it onto any device and it just figures it out and works.

I cant thank you enough for this reply. It was very informative! I been doing some research as well so I can get a better understanding on how these roms work. As sad as this sounds I found out cyanogenmod10 is basically a mod rom of jellybean. If these rumors are in fact true, would the jellybean release from samsung speed of the developing process for cyanogenmod10? Since they should share the same code or what not.
I think at this point I dont care to backup. All my pics are sync to my dropbox automatically and my can go to the playstore and redownload my payed apps there. So backing up is not needed with me.
Yeah, CM10 is a 4.1.1 rom as far as I know, I still have my old i9000 and installed it on it the other day. Its nice and has all the jelly bean features, I find it a bit laggy but all the functions work great. The laggyness is hard to say, the phone is old but they are also still porting over all the features, I think its a bit of both at the moment but since its not my daily main phone I don't play with it alot.
The Cyanogenmod is a great rom, and lots of third party roms are based off that rom just with other mods on top of it. Personally since its still a beta like it says in the forum i'm willing to wait and the rumours on jelly bean coming from samsung at the end of august seem to me more true by the day. And once that is released or leaked CM will be alot better faster. But you never know still waiting on ICS from those slow pokes on my tab 10.1 while in the mean time they have released two more tables with ICS haha.
So like i have said before its really up to you. You can install the beta and try it out, I know people are using it as a daily driver. And you can always flash back to stock.
