I really wanted the Motorola Weather widget, so I download the system app dump of the Defy, and found what I desired. An .APK file and an .ODEX file. I have no problem installing the .APK, but what is the .ODEX file? Is it important? And if yes, than how do I install it?
You should put the odex file in the same folder where apk was copied during the installation.
Or, without installing, copy apk + odex in /system/app folder.

Hello,
How can i do to add a software for installing it during the installation of the rom.
I explain:
I need to have Estrong File when i flash my Desire.
How can i do ???
I put apk file in data\app and system\app, after i use sign rom, but when i flash my Desire no application appear.
Why ???Thanks
Unzip the ROM ZIP file, add the APK to just /system/app and then rezip it - if you put it in /data/app and the wipe before first boot you'll obviously remove the app
Works fine for me
Howdy all
I'm trying to deodex the stock E97310h rom and /system/framework has 2 .apk files in it framework-res.apk and lge-res.apk......my question is what do I do with them??? I have sucessfully deodexed all .apks from /system/app and all .jars from /system/framework. There is no .odex file for the 2 .apks so do I assume they are not odexed and I can manually move them back into the folder that has all my deodexed .jars???
Sorry if my question is unclear...having a hard time trying to word exactly what I'm after.
Thanks
They doesnt have the .odex file cause there no execution code they use, just a container.
That really doesn't answer my question, sorry. I just want to know why there are 2 .apks in the framework folder that contains all .jar files.
Look at this in this way:
This folder have some .exe files and 2 zips, where system resources (graphics etc) stored
Hi,
I would like to share some of the apks which i have modified (customised). The reason why I wanted to share was because I gained a lot from this site and was hoping to share whichever apks I have modified. I have been modifying Samsung S3 Jellybean 4.3 apks (individual apks) and would like to upload them just incase someone would like to try them too.
Device Name: GT-I9300
Android Version: 4.3
Build Number: JSS15J.I9300XWUGML4 (I9300DDUGMK1)
These are Deodexed APKs. In order to try these apks the phone must be rooted and one can just place these modified apks in the system/app folder. For this one must have a File browser like ES Explorer or Root Browser or some other file browser installed which will let one get access to the system/app folder where one has to put the customised (modified) apks.
NOTE: Remember to make a backup of your original apk files before replacing with these modified apks, just in case you would like to go back to your original apk files.
Also say one is replacing a SecCalender.apk from this thread to your system/app folder on your phone, than search for a SecCalender.apk and for a SecCalender.odex file. If one finds both these files in your system/app folder, first make a backup copy of both these files in case one has to restore these back sometime in the future. Also you can add the extension .bak to both these file ,ie. SecCalender.apk.bak and SecCalender.odex.bak and leave them in your system/app folder itself as a form of back. Now place the SecCalender.apk from this thread in your system/app folder using the any FIle Browser (ie ES Explorer or Root browser). Also once the file has been sucessfully copied to the system/app folder, change the permission of the file to rw-r-r. Next reboot your phone and wait till everything is up before you open the modified app. While replacing other apk files the same procedure applies.
Here are the following Modified Apps:
SecCalender.apk (15.1 MB)
SamsungCamera.apk (10.8 MB)
SMemo.apk (31.4 MB)
SecNoteMyFiles.apk (3.58 MB)
====================================================================================================================
In case you do like any of the modified apks please click the Thanks Meter, as this will help me know that somebody has liked my work and I can than upload more apks which I will be modifying.
I am trying to edit the LGMessage.apk and deodex it aswell
Is it possible to deodex a single system app? My second question is if I am just changing things in the res folder and nothing to do with the odex file do I have to odex it?
The issue I am having is when I replace it in the priv-app folder and set permissions to rw-r-r then reboot. The app doesnt show up as installed.
Questions?
you can edit the apk. no need to deodex. when you replace the original just delete the corresponding .odex file and reboot

Click to collapse
rename the folder as same as the apk in the folder,in system/app.
example:-
if your folder's name is "ClockPackage",you need to renamed the apk like-"ClockPackage.apk".
then set the folder permission "rwxrxrx" and the apk "rwrr".then reboot
