Deodex rom doubt - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I hav a doubt. .Would be nice if somebody cleared it up.
What is the use of a deodex rom apart from themeing?
Since I'm never going to install any themes on my phone like transparent status bar and all. . Do I need Deodex rom for anything else?

For mods you will need a deodexed rom. But if you are going to use only stock apps there is no point.
- f3w1n -

You can flash all the MODs found here
And there also alootttttt of root apps which generally increase your phone sound/performance/display greatly, and those apps use root.
And also you can flash custon kernels which take out the true potential of a device

Hey I'm not talking abt root. . Im running a rooted odex rom.. I was just interested in knowing use on deodex...
As far as I know none of the root apps require deodex.. correct me if I'm wrong

Idk if this is your taste or if u have space on your home but u can try battstatt. I like it and fits in well with my bg pic
You have to be using a deodexed ROM, I'm using the deodexed stock 2.2 from steelh and it was a piece of cake to change this. Just put it on the sdcard and flash it like you would a rom.

Sweet thanks... last question... running this.. will it wipe my phone? As in factory reset it basically?
Thanks again
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
The battery mod wont delete anything and the ROM wont delete your sd card but it will start up like a brand new phone afterwards. Just use Titanium backup to backup all your apps and it can reinstall them all for you afterwards.
Okay so the Rom will reboot phone like new(factory reset).. and have to redo settings and apps... thanks...

Quick question of flashing mods

Can I flash mods to a stock rooted rom or it has to be a custom rom?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA
It depends entirely on the mod. Many will work just fine, some require a deodexed ROM, others modify something specific to a ROM.
Like for example the soft key mod to change the color of the soft keys can I flash that on stock rom?
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA
Do a back up and then try and flash your mod.
Its the only way to learn.

Hi, i think the difference between a Odexed and Deodexed ROMs is that the Odexed ROMs you cannot use themes our customize your ROM, but have a Optimized Dex, and the Deodexed ROMs you can customize the ROM as use themes, etc but doesn't have a Optimized Dex.
I think it have more differences, if someone could add more differences...
Is there any link ? ? ?

Hi, for you have a deodexed rom you have to flash a customized rom, search in "Galaxy W I8150 Android Development" section here in xda developers, you have there several different roms.

If not you need to have it for flashing mods, themes our roms...

For official Stock ROM, in /system/app and /system/framework, the apps consists of two parts: .apk and .odex. .odex helps to increase the loading speed of apps as part of the app is stored in .odex file and it will be preloaded in memory. Technically, original ROM with odex files will be faster than deodexed ROM.
Besides, it also makes hacking those applications difficult because a part of the coding has already been extracted to another location before execution.
This is why applying theme in odex ROM is not very possible.
If u want to deodex ur ROM, u can try xultimate. Search it in our forum.
Extended Power Menu
Excellent job yewsiong!
Do you no how I could only install the "Extended Power Menu" in the stock rom?
I thought about flashing a custom rom which already has it, but I really like the stock one I'm using and it would be awesome if we could have the "Extended Power Menu" since I'm always running nandroid backups...
Thanks in advance!!!

LOL, since stock rom has not been deodexed, it is difficult to edit framework-res.apk and framework-res.dex. It is beyond my knowledge at this moment.
Nice1 bro. I very happy. .
Good job man.
Just wondering. why does the flashlight last 2 seconds only ah?

It is due to the java coding for 14 toggles. Its creator lidroid hasn't fixed it yet. I will update it once it fixed.

Changing Status Bar Icons

Does anyone know how to do this? I hate my status bar icons currently. My phone set-up currently is as follows:
Note 2 Root Toolbox (I believe this is odin)
Stock Rom
TWRP Recovery
Custom Boot Animation and Audio
Beats Audio Drivers
A few other things are done but they are not worth mentioning. I am opening to anything from changing the icons one by one to changing the whole theme. Thank you very much in advance for all of your help.

I believe that you need a deodexed ROM to do any theme mods to the top status bar. If you're unsure, look in the system/app directory, and if you have .odex files, you are not "deodexed". Once you're running a deodexed ROM, you can apply any number of status bar mods that are available for your particular ROM-base (ie LJC, LK8,MA5). I'm sure someone more knowledgeable can give you more specific information on how to build those mods yourself if you want. Hope this helps a little

Thanks, I am not deoxed yet, hopefully someone could help me with that. I want ro be able to use ota updates still though. Will I be able to?
Sent from my SPH-L900 using Tapatalk 2
You need the stock recovery to receive OTA updates, and you've already flashed TWRP. If you like the stock ROM and are only looking to theme it, I suggest you download an appropriate deodexed version from the development forum. Stock deodexed ROMs for LJ1, LJC, LK8, and MA5 are all available. Once you flash the new ROM, you can apply flashable themes from the themes forum.

Yes, but i want the new update too. where can i find the ROM includes this and can i flash it over the existent rom?
Read and search man, all the info is there. There is uncountable guides about how to root an un-root and why and what it does. Just make some search you will find all you need. No need to start a thread for this.
