Hello Galaxy Nexus Xda Users!
Informations:
Here is a simple apk to odex automatically, easily and securely deodexed roms.
This apk has been coded by the famous Paul Obrien from Modaco Roms and Forums.
This guy is just a genious.
The original apk has been done for Galaxy S II but it works on Galaxy Nexus (tested working). --> Original thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1215271
Paul is even using it in his own Galaxy Nexus 4.0.4 Custom Rom here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1487056
But I tested the apk on other 4.0.3 deodexed roms that you can find in the development section of the Galaxy Nexus and it is working perfectly (Aokp odexed rom is wonderful...)
Odexing a deodexed rom is giving you a boost in smoothness (you can see it in the launcher or in scrolling through system apps), performance and battery.
It gives you the flexibility to have a custom rom with modified system, framework and design AND all the tweaks that come with a custom rom in addition to the performance of an odexed stock rom.
To use it:
1) make sure you have a custom rooted rom / kernel with init.d support (scripts must be able to run at boot: it is a folder in /system/etc). It is very important or it won't run pre-boot scripts... Thanks to open1your1eyes0 who remarked it.
You can try this useful application to add init.d support to your ROM / kernel: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1933849
2) make sure that you don't have transparent status bar before odexing or you will loose your bar after odexing... (for AOKP users for example). Thanks to frantic912 who noticed it.
3) simply put the apk in /system/app folder with a file browser like "Root Explorer" (the folder must be in RW mode to copy the file)
4) do a nandroid backup in cwm and / or titanium backup of all your apps (even the system ones like Gmail)
5) then go to the launcher
6) tap "Odex me"
7) follow the instructions
It will:
1) reboot your phone
2) odex all the system staying on a black screen or on the Google screen a bit longer than normally (but it's normal)
3) put a ".odex" file with each app in /system/app
4) reboot again
5) go back to home
--> You will then see your boost in smoothness!
For people who are not convinced: check that: http://android.stackexchange.com/qu...e-difference-between-odexed-and-deodexed-roms
To see if it worked:
- Go to /system/app folder and see if there is a ".odex extension" for each system apk.
I attached the apk to this thread for ease of use.
Please write here your tests, opinions, questions, and thank Paul (and me for giving you this info ) for this wonderful and simple apk.
P.S. Please read reports from other users in the thread before trying the apk as some users seem to loose their status bar if they set transparency effects or some of them are having "force closes" if the rom they are using is too much themed...
P.S.2. Pay attention please, as androidphone2012 intelligently noticed, this apk can only odex *.apk files. The system framework is not odexed by it. To odex the framework too, please use the following script instead. It odexes *.apk files and Framework *.jar files too.
--> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2278586
If you already ran the apk to odex apk files, do not flash that zip: re-flash your ROM, GApps and MODs you're using and then flash the zip.
For your information, I tested the CM10.1 zip from the thread on my AOKP latest nightly build version and it worked flawlessly.
Looks cool. Nothing is attached to your post though.
Can I use it on other devices? (Galaxy si900)
I don't think this works. It rebooted and when I booted back and checked, there were no .odex files in the /system/app folder. Has anyone else got it working?
FYI, tested on 4.0.4 stock deodexed ROM.

Oups Sorry.
I was at work, I attached it but maybe when I posted the thread, it didn't put it...
I reuploaded it...
It's ok now.
Disregard previous post...
Did not have init.d support. Very important or it won't run pre-boot scripts!

You can try, it could work.
I will try this week end as I go to a friend who has a Galaxy S and I will test on his phone.
Will report after but you could do a nandroid backup, test by yourself and report here too

Flashed init.d boot image. All good now.

Thanks. I knew that. Just forgot to post it.
I modified OP to inform about that.

So apparently I spoke to soon...
The app ran this time but after the reboot and odex process, my SystemUI wouldn't load and I ended up with no notification bar up top or any soft-keys at all. Also it was back to stock wallpaper. Not sure what happened, it looked like everything went through fine but I guess my SystemUI is borked.
Recovering from backup now...
I am not sure what caused this issue. I did have modded soft-keys and battery icon however, but I don't see why this would matter if a lot of the custom ROMs have modded soft-keys anyway. I would like to point out this was on stocked deodexed 4.0.4 ROM. If this works for anyone else, I would surely like to know. MAKE SURE you backup before trying.
Thank you Flolep
It works great for me, but I don't know why Gmail disappeared. But it's still in /system/app, so I tried to install and I get this : Application not installed

It's a system app so you can't "install" it. It has to be flashed into the ROM. I have a feeling this app is not exactly the most reliable in working with all the apks.

Well. I didn't have any problem with it... Gmail was still there and my framework and system ui didn't have any problem after reboot...
I tried with modaco 4.0.4 rom that is near stock 4.0.4 deodexed rom and I tried with heavily customized aokp latest aokp build 25 rom, configured for my needs, battery percent, toggles, navigation controls in blue, etc, etc, and all worked seamlessly...
I add to first thread to do a nandroid backup before launching the process.

I will keep in view for this app until more success cases reported
But I definitely will try after back from my vacation, wouldn't risk to brick my device on a trip ;p
I finally found the problem...
I forgot that the custom ROM I'm using needs a sort of modded Gapps pack to be install via CWM.
I think here is the issue.
Worked fine for me. GSM GN on AOKP B25. Just make a backup in cwm before you do it. Worst case scenario: it boot loops, you pop the battery, boot into recovery and restore.
Do you know the muffin man?

This mod will change the stock grey gradient background in ICS to solid black (see attached pic). This should work with any ROM. To install, see the instructions at the bottom of this post taken from atticus182's thread (anywhere that it refers to "Softkey Style", replace that with "blacked-out.zip").
This zip is 100% the work of belipe: blacked-out.zip
atticus182 said:
*** ZipThemer ***
Download and install ZipThemer from the Market
Download a Softkey Style using the ZipThemer link in the First Post, and open up ZipThemer on your phone
If this is the first time using ZipThemer, hit the (hidden) menu key -> Hit "Update Edify" -> Hit "Browse" (pick a file that you have flashed before on your phone, like your ROM or a theme) -> Hit "Configure" -> Then hit the 'back' softkey to return to the main screen.
Click the "+Theme" button, browse to the download folder and select the .zip you have just downloaded using the ZipThemer link in the First Post, probably /sdcard/download
Click the "Build It!" button, and when it prompts if you want to make an "undo-zip", click "Always"
You will now see the output screen with the Build Log, check if everything went alright, it will show that a zip file has been created on /sdcard/
Reboot your phone to Recovery after this and flash the .zip file that is created on /sdcard/
Done! If you experience problems or want to undo the action just flash the "undo-zip" that's also located on /sdcard/
*** MetaMorph ***
Download and install MetaMorph from the Market, open it at least once so that the folder AndroidThemes will be created on /sdcard/
Download a Softkey Style using the MetaMorph link and move this .zip file to /sdcard/AndroidThemes using your favorite file explorer
Open MetaMorph, choose "Unzip/Extract new theme" and select the .zip file you downloaded. A popup screen will appear, meaning it has been extracted. Press the "Close" button.
Hit the "Apply all!" button and wait +/- 5 seconds (nothing will happen)
Reboot your phone immediately after this and you're done! Oh, and set a new wallpaper because it may be restored to default..

[SOFTKEYS] [09-03] Softkey Collection 2.0 [GSM/CDMA]
[THEME] Blue Magic (Full ICS) Theme (CNA 1.5.0 | Universal .zip!) [Mar 10]
I was wondering if it's possible to make a similar zip file to change the grey background in the ICS Settings and other screens to solid black? Is this even possible? Being able to apply this to any ROM using ZipThemer or MetaMorph would be amazing - that grey ICS background gradient is just so ugly.

of course that is possible, as you can see in many themes. I dont know zipThemer or metamorph, but generating a zip with the changed images is very easy.
you can find the image you have to change in /system/framework/framework-res.apk/res/drawable-nodpi the file you have to change is: background_holo_dark.png

Thanks, I'll try the manual route for now then (will try this on BAMF). The reason I thought a file compatible with ZipThemer or MetaMorph would be good is because is auto-generates a flashable zip for you, as well as an "undo" zip. Very convenient and user-friendly.

Yep I know that, but sadly I never worked with that. The manual method is the method I prefer, because I control whats in the zip and whats not
this would be awesome especially for rapid release roms like cm9 nightlies

We (me and a couple others) actually played with this a month or two ago.

There is a vrtheme patch somewhere in that thread, or here:
http://www.teambamf.net/f75/[rom]-bamf-paradigm-v1-1-[4-0-3]-4416/#post80887
It should work on any rom.
Just an alternative in case you guys don't want to use metamorph. I always use this. Makes for a clean look.

Finally downloaded it.
I'm still quite frustrated coming up with a decent name, if you have any nice suggestions do PM me.
I was experimenting some short cuts to battery saving so I reconfigured my build.prop
I put at least 3 nights into this thing not including time used to experiment around!!!
So If It really does help, please click Thanks
Majorly speaking, I am still an inexperienced script kiddie.
But I do like to experiment on my phone a lot.
I'll go straight to the point now.
Disclaimer: I am not responsible for any phone bricking, and by applying this script requires root access which means that your warranty is already voided.
The purpose of this build.prop update is that it saves battery yet increase responsiveness when used such as screen scrolling and stuff.
All the values and lines is not original, someone used them, I just modified so that I think it fits our device the most.
I checked and it seemed that all the remaining stuff in it is compatible with ICS.
I enabled most of the hardware rendering so that when its running it will sort of run turbo or something, at least at the launcher it did.
Again I must inform I am still inexperienced but all the things I experimented on worked on my device.
Requirements:
Device: Samsung Galaxy W or any Qualcomm Devices
Recovery: CWM 5/6
ROM: Rooted Android based OS
Kernel: Doesn't matter
Works well with: Seeder(works well with anything anyhow )
Installation step-by-step:
Download the Latest .zip below this post
Then Save the file into your sdcard
BACK UP FIRST
1. Boot into CWM
2. Apply XtiveJetLauncher.zip
3. Wipe Dalvik cache
4. Reboot!
5. Watch phone Fire Up
X. Only use the QC 2.2 if your phone stucks at bootanimation.
We now have flashable version for ALL
These are lines which are already inside your build.prop by default(refered to arco's cm9) but replace values with these new ones.
Code:
dalvik.vm.heapsize=48m
dalvik.vm.dexopt-flags=v=n,o=a,u=y
Enjoy.
Please give me lots of feed back so that I can improve.
Changelogs:
V1.0 - V2.0: Alpha stage unreleased.
V2.1: Initial Release
V2.2: Added Network Codes
V2.3: Added Replaceable Codes
V3.0: Categorized Codes
V3.1: Codes added
Renamed Xtive JetLauncher
Xtive JetLauncherV2: More awesome codes
V3 is out! Now with optional seeder. Fixing the codes that might stop data connection

Arco - For providing an already refined build.prop
Samsung - For reminding that you abandoned us so that I have to make something better outta myself

I just did a clean install of CM9 RC2 today. Now I'm with your build.prop mod and it seems normal yet. Will give you my feedback soon.

nah, but just repeating those lines will do nothing. Go to your build.prob and remove them, then flash if you really want to.
Just to be more specific (if i am not already) they are the same exact line, with no values changed. But a version that adds them without effort (because copy and paste is an effort lol)

I'm not too sure I follow, your question is?
If you're saying the differences between V2.1 and V2.2 its only those replaceable lines.
If you're saying about the zip files, I didn't upload then, 7amada100 made them(thanks), but something inside did not work that's all.
I'll try to make a flashable zip shortly. For now please continue using the manual method.
May I present to you....
Stocktimus Series
Why?!
Even if we, by some MIRACLE, (Yeah right LG/Sprint By summer 2014. HA!!) get updated to Kitkat, there seems to be enough interest in another stock based ROM.
This is just a good base to make a Stock ROM the way you want. Just add the zips in Post #2, if you prefer. (WIP)
What this is...
This is just a stock Rom with some Tweaks built into it. If I didn't see an improvement, it wasn't added. It also has apps moved to /data to make it easier to remove what you don't want.
4-20-14 Stocktimus CE -"Custom Edition" added - This one is customized. See Below
You install this at your own risk!!! But really there shouldn't be any problems.
Install
Choose your flavor: Odexed or Deodexed, or CE
In either TWRP/CWM recovery wipe, /system, /data, /cache, and /dalvic. Just DON"T wipe "internal data". That's your SD
Bootup, depending on which ROM, may take up to 4 minutes. The apps from /data are installing.
It never hurts to go to Settings>System Updates, and update profile/prl
Special instuctions for both versions are in their sections.
Change logs:

Just a flashable update. This will wipe /cache, /dalvic and init.d scripts. So if you've added any extra scripts to your init.d, you'll need to add them back.
Before flashing, turn off "Eco-mode"/"Quad core control". This update now has scripts to control the CPU/GPU for better battery and the same performance. I've tamed Viper kernel.
I would recommend NOT using any app that will modify CPU. ie Trickster Mod. I made this because Trickster's settings wouldn't stick
See Change log above

Add-ons - updated 4-22-14
Extras and add-ons - Will update these when I get time - (WIP)
Wifi tether settings:
Device Profile>Generic ICS/JB (wlan0)
Enable Wifi Encryption
That's what I use and it's always worked
And remember, EITHER wifi or Tether per reboot. So if you run one of them, then you need to reboot to use the other.
____________________________________________________________________________
If you want your phone go faster. (Not quite sure how to put that :silly
Go to Settings>Developer Options, about half way down there are 3 settings to adjust timing. Windows,Transition,and Animation. Try those on .5. I just set the Transition one to .5 and I works great for me.
_____________________________________________________________________
Before you do any of the following, make a nandroid backup in recovery!
Kernels:
Stock ZVC - Built in with init.d support. Here
Evolutionmods CodeCraft - this is what Viper kernel is based on - Here
Viper Kernel o/c&u/v - Get it and read it Here
Trickster mod was what I've used with the kernels. But no matter what I tried the settings will eventually change. Using Viper 1.0 or 1.1

4X5 Home Sceen- gets rid of the google search bar and gives you more room on the screen - Thanks to Lrod0175 - 4X5 Launcher Works with Deodex.
To work with Odexed. In rooted explorer, go to /system/apps and delete LGHOME3.ODEX. Reboot to recovery and install 5x4 launcher. Done

Flashable Sprint boot animation - no sound. Here

Flashable Sprint boot and shutdown animation - With sounds. Here
___________________________________________________________________
If you want to change your boot animation, and it's not flashable, you can DL the Sprint with no sound above, open the zip with 7zip and replace the bootani with the one you want. Just make sure you name it bootanimation.zip. You shouldn't have to worry about permissions.
Heres a few if you want. Theres more in our Theme section
PartimusPrime thread. Built into Stocktimus, but in case you want it back. Here
HPTesla threads. Here and Here
octhrope's thread. Here
_Epic's thread. Here
This may not work for the shutdown animation

Modded LGBrowser - now with 25 tabs. And BTW, #17-25 do not have the little numbers for the tabs. This will work for all Deodexed Stockish ROM's. It SHOULD work for Odexed if you delete LGBrowser.odex

Thanks engine95, I was getting a little worried there that the Optimus G area was getting a bit like a ghost town. I love the ROMs more when it is stock, not completely stock.
Wait, I forgot to say - FIRST!!
Yeah baby!!
You the man @engine95! Thanks for this!

Thank you sir! Much appreciated man.
USB Debugging is grayed out and can't be turned on in Settings. This is not good. lol Bad flash? (Running DeOdex Version)
Edit: It magically showed up. All is good.
Hate random kernel crashes on Cyanogenmod 11. Hope this doesn't have any.
Could we use Qslide on this ROM if so where can I find it

You can try it. It's in the OpTimus thead here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=46154045. If it doesn't work you should be able to restore, either your nandroid backup... or the flashable LgSystemUI.apk that's there to. I haven't tried that mod on this ROM yet so let us know.

The Qslide worked but it did that the icons to custom icons in the status bar. So I went back to stock.

I forgot about that, and thanks for trying it.
I remember now that it had to be ported for us. I think international got it and we didn't. Most who tried it didn't feel it was worth the trouble to pursue. I'll talk to Leo and see if it's something I can modify to stock icons.

I'm running actual stock right now. If you want I can pm you a dropbox of the stock boot ani.zip I know you have to set permissions for it to work correctly. And sorry op I didn't mean to hijack the thread with my longass response.
Edit: there seems to be 3 bootups and 2 shutdowns for stock. https://www.dropbox.com/sh/k8foh8dyh6oazwz/0xpLsBRl9M
That's a link to all 5 of them. As far as permissions go, I'll post a screenshot from my file manager showing them. You need to paste them in the folder I show, make sure you delete the old bootanimation.zip or it won't work.

That's because your rom is not deodexed. Please read the whole OP. I said that these are for deodexed stock. It was the first warning in the OP.
If you're on a odex rom you will have to delete or rename the odex file for each of the apks included in the zip you flashed.
