Whats the difference? - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III

can someone explain to me the difference between odexed and deodexed?

Your going to get a flame for adding this but basically odex is the system files are broken in to 2 files an apk and an odex file. It preloads the odex file to run slightly faster but makes theming impossible.
Deodex removes the odex and compiles it all into the apk making theming possible... if you search you can find a more detailed technical answer but that's a basic one

Well I agree with most of what you said but there have been odex themes

Roms have to go on internal memory to flash on gs3
this message brought to you by my GalaxyS3 running Phantom's Blazer v1.6

I don't know how you feel about using TWRP 2.2, but that recovery will allow you to flash roms stored on your external sdcard.

I've installed all of my roms via flashing them from the external SD card with CWM.

I would like to know what version of CWM for the GSIII your using that alows to to flash ROM's from the external SD card.
I have only found TWRP able to do this as CWM does not read the external SD card on the GSIII yet.

[Q] Partitioning SD Card for Evo.

I haven't partitioned my sd card yet. I just wanted to get some info on this first. I am currently running CM7 and I'm aware that you don't need to partition to run this rom. I was thinking about trying MikG v3.00 or Decks and wanted to know if there were any threads on partitioning the Evo or any tips you guys could give me? Any suggestions? Once you partition your sd card do you tend to leave the set up as is regardless of using different roms? Does partitioning erase everything on your memory card?
Any info would be greatly appreciated.

After you partition you do (well I do) tend to leave things how they are. After you partition to do a nandroid you have to backup sdext now and when you wipe you have to wipe sdext to go to a new rom. Also partitioning will 100% erase it so have to backup to your pc

Thanks for the reply that thread was very helpful. Answered a lot of questions.
Just 1 question though. If I partition my card, then decide I want to change to the swap or ext again. Will that delete the contents of my sd card ?

Ok so i just partitioned my sd card using TWRP. Then I mounted my sd card and put the zip for MikG v3.0 on the root. I did a full wipe. Then proceeded to install the rom. But now it just says 'Unable to open zip file' It looks like its trying to load. I'm not sure what to do. Should I try another rom?
Any help would be much appreciated.

Ok thanks. i just installed amon ra and partitioned and put MikG on my memory card. im about to install it. I was just curious about the 'toggle signature verification' option. What is it for?
Oops right post lol, sent me to a different post in the thread and lost me now back to the answer
Signature verification is for flashing signed and unsigned zips no need to enable it unless you need to flash a HTC signed zip with it off you can flash any zip in recovery signed or not

Only if you want to use SWAP, think of swap as extra RAM, so if ur short on RAM swap might help, but swap is slower than RAM, and your need a Kernel with SWAP support.
I currently am using Swap

couple questions on partitioning

I am using energy 3.5 sense rom with an anthrax kernel. I just got my new 32gb sd card and have been looking into partitioning it. I tried once and couldnt seem to find the ext2 folder. I put my 8gb card back in. I have done some looking into it some and am wondering what is the best way to partition with clockworkmod? after i do get my sd card partitioned do i have to reflash the rom and kernel? I read it in a tutorial but was wondering if it was essential. Also, if i go to AmonRa 2.3 where can i find it? i can never seem to find where to download it.
Thanks guys im still trying to learn.
Here's the Amon-RA recovery which you can still flash CWM recoveries if you choose to http://www.mediafire.com/?6eo9jo7fdazp2 you may also want to read this thread on partitioning your SD card http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1386911

Yep, Moreno is dead on the money. I partitioned mine with Amon-Ra and had zero problems. Of course, then I accidently wiped my SD Card while doing a flash and had to start over. Make sure you use Dark Tremors Apps2SD after installing your ROM to take full advantage of your partition (but you probably already knew that!).

is it true that after partitioning your sdcard that older nandroids you have from where the sdcard was not partitioned cant be used without causing some issues?
It shouldn't be a problem... I believe I have seen that question before and the dev kinda of covered that with this recovery, he actually did a fantastic job so to be honest you won't have any issues as far as that, it still should do the trick.
Ok thanks. Was also wondering if it's necessary to do a fresh download/install of all apps from the market?

[Q] Just turned on Evo since july 11

I just got my og Evo 4g (on the 3d now) back on for my wife since she dropped hers and is in 2 pieces lol. I havent been on the 4g forum in a long long time and need some help from you guys.
I have found out the im on android 2.2 with baseband version 2.15.00.11.19
Was running Eternal Prophecy v6.1 and on 2.6.32.27 netarchy kernel. I know im pretty far behind and want to know how i would go about getting the phone up to date and run a rom that is pretty stable since its for my wife. She has been bashing me ever since ive found out about rooting and flashing roms, so i want to hook her up with a stable rom with all bloatware removed, and show her that "aftermarket" roms are way better than the one that came with the phone. Any recommendations would be helpful.
Oooohhhhh....1 thing, i dont have the SD card anymore and most likely will be putting her SD card in, would that be ok?
Yes that should be okay. Might need to partition the card via recovery. Roms I have been using cm7 for aosp and mikG for sense. They are both good. Kernels that are out for gingerbread are anthrax, lionfish, and a couple of others. If you want to go straight stock give tommytomatoes classic rom a go. He has tweaked that rom pretty good. Hope this helps.

Thanks for the reply....I'm still kinda noob on partitioning lol, what do you mean exactly by partitioning via recovery? Is that the whole ext4 thing?
If you are running the latest version of Clockwork mod recovery, you have the option to partition the SD card directly from the recovery. Hope that help man.

What do I do after I partition the SD card?
Partition your card 32/1024, once you do that your SD card should be complete. Partitioning your card will delete everything in your card so be cautious and backup your memory onto a computer

TWRP not reading sd

So I'm having a problem with my internal sd being read. I flashed a rom from rootzwiki. Ive run pretty much every rom on here, AOSP and TW. I flashed back to Frosty jelly right now and after using the rom from Rootzwiki TWRP wouldn't read my internal SD. I noticed that the samsung file explorer wouldnt read it either. It was showing a different extension I think.
So I flashed the fixer located on one of the aosp threads. Now my file manager will show all my files but I cant get TWRP to see my files on the internal sd.
Any help would be appreciated, suggestions?

You could try 1 of 2 things:
1. Re-flash recovery mode.
2. Change the type of recovery mode you use.
You can flash recoveries by downloading the .zip file for it and flashing it in the recovery you have. I suggest putting it on the external sd since the internal does not work
I did re flash Twrp. I guess I could try flashing cwm and see what happens.

Unable to move app. Not enough storage space.

I have read a few other items in various spots throughout the interweb but I am just not able to find anything that solves my problem. I just flashed my phone with the following:
Rom
[TeaM VeNuM] The Blu Kuban JB GB27 Odexed
Modem
GB27
Kernel
3.0.31-1014481 via tGB27_Agats_Recovery .zip
I formatted my "internal storage" just to make sure I did not have anything wrong with that and have plenty of space on my external storage sd card. I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction to resolve this because the only reason I flashed in the first place was because I was having this issue on my old rom and some of the forums suggested flashing a new rom, so I did. Thanks in advance for the assistance and the hard work everyone puts in getting these updates out to us.
So the question is what? Moving apps to sdcard? More info on the precise nature of your issue.

Yeah, sorry about that. Any app I try and move gives me that error. Plenty of space on both my internal storage and my actually SD card.
I'm hoping someone has a suggestion for this? Do I need a different Kernel, ROM, etc...?
