Stock KitKat 4.4.2 DeOdex, Debloat? - LG Optimus G Pro

Has anyone taken the stock Kit Kat ROM, debloated and deodexed it yet and make it flashable with CWM or TWRP? Ive seafched using a few different methods and havent found anything. I love the stock ROM of KitKat for the OG Pro, but I know it can be done better by one of our great devs.
Thanks,
Eric

I don't think so

As of right now I was able to use this link-- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2725930 but I had issues with java on my pc..
I had to set the right path variables so that the program would work... this is what I used to set my path variables--- c:\program files\java\jre7\bin ---- copy it that way if you don't have the path set that way ...for some reason the main.bat program wouldn't read it in capitals...strange . so make sure you have java updated jdk updated ...then go from there ...the only bug I found was that my weatherbin apps didn't deodex so I'm looking to see how I can fix that ..hope I helped ..

Need help on building my theme

So I started working on my own theme a while ago. Most of it is pretty simple stuff. Mostly work I've done using Ninja Morph. But I wanted to create a flashable zip in case I needed to wipe my phone for some reason and reapply the theme. So I looked up directions on how to create a theme(http://www.incredibleforum.com/forum/htc-incredible-themes/6020-[tutorial]-how-make-themes.html)
I followed this as best I could and put everything in a zip file and transfered it to my phone. When I tried to flash it, it gave me an error(error 6 I think). Can anyone tell me what I am missing to get this to work?
I'll attach the zip I made so anyone can take a look at it. I call it DragonBread. I am running OMFGB 1.2.0. I'll try to attach some screen shots of what it looks like on my phone too.
Edit: Ok so for whatever reason, I cant upload my zip file. I have tried both zip and rar. Any ideas?
http://www.mediafire.com/?jo0g26d0nbvcome
Had to upload on media fire. Someone check this out and let me know what is going on. Thanks.
Can nobody help me with this?

first of all bro if you didnt mod any of the jars get rid of them. they are rom specific. you want framework-res.apk and com.htc.resources and any apps you modded. if you have not modded any of the apps take them out.
if you did mod a jar leave it in but it sounds like your not there yet with your experience. also if your just swapping images use 7zip on your laptop or computer. ninjamorph is fun but i only use that on my phone when im not near my laptop.
im assumig you have a dinc. is this an aosp rom your on because i dont see sense in your theme.
also your probably not getting help because to just vaguely say error 6 is not any information. post exactly what errors you are recieving and what recovery you are using. also what rom are you on? and did you use the same framework for your theme.
I didn't see anything in that link you provided in the OP about signing the zip too.

I figured but you have no idea the mistakes people make on xda.
Your zip script looks good tho you have something in there Iv e never seen before. Try updating to the newest clockwork

Here try this and see if it works. Upgrade your CWM to the newest version and then flash this. I removed all the apk's that you did not touch and the jar's that you have not touched and it made it alot smaller. I also updated your script to the 3.0 CWM version. Please note. IF Your ROM has a newer verion that works on the new CWM Then Upgrade it. After you flash the new CWM all backups that you have will not work as it is saved for the older version of CWM.

I looked at the script file and it had a blank line at the top before the words started. Is that supposed to be like that? I took that line out and re zipped the file and tried to flash it. It doesn't give me an error, but now it just says installation aborted. Any ideas?

[ROOT] LG Nitro HD Root Method - *Not working on latest update*

Hi all,
I've uploaded this root method because it is the only way I have been able to get root on the first try every time.
Your results may vary. If you don't get it first try, just try again.
Here are the methods I have tried and had fail:
UnlockRoot
Doomlord v1
Doomlord v4
TPSparky
SuperOneClick (Any Version)
So here you go! Here is a method that I have had 100% success with. I will be editing the script to try and make it more clean and less work on your part in the future. I will post new versions on this thread when I get them done.
Required Downloads
LG Nitro HD Root.zip
Enabling Root Rights
Enable USB Debugging and Unknown Sources.
Unzip the zip file to the location of your choice.
Run the file named “Root.bat”.
Follow the instructions on in the CMD window.
Notes
Here is a list of the apps that I have found will brick your Nitro if removed:
AT&T Address Book
AT&T Navigator
Google Play Books*
Google Play Movies*
Google Play Music
Google Play Store/Market
removal of at&t addressbook and navigator doesn't brick your device !
i confirm this !

Thank you for your input. But, I have removed both of them individually and bricked it. Also, several others have reported in other threads that it has. I believe it just depends on how much luck you have.
Just tried... no worky.
Again, I am trying to root on 2.3.5. Zerg fails, SOC wont make it past rebooting adb...

Matt your instructions for root say to extract from zip, root.bat. But your link takes me to a apk root file not a zip file...
can you be more specific or maybe the link is misdirected?
are you saying this is a root method via apk from phone?
IM starting to remember why I sold my g2x....nothing changes eh LG??

But as to what? Run the apk on your pc o_0
His directions say dl zip, yet there is no zip it directs you to a page that looks like what may have been in the zip? Still not clear
The apk root ...it shows up on the phone but still unclear.
Need the link fixed or to be clarified please Mattman when you get a chance thank you.
Edit: is the zip you were refering to the lg tool that reverts you to v18f ?
If so will this work on official ics release via lg tool.
Thanks again in advance
Sent from my LG-P930 using Tapatalk 2
Terribly sorry... The privacy settings on my Google Drive must have been reset somehow.
I've fixed it so that the zip should show now.
But it now says that you have binned the file. It works right, doesn't it?
Mattman your script isnt working.
When I hit "any key to continue" it flashes..but its not flashing anything.
Cmd window turns off (checked process not running at all)
nothing happens.
No instructions , nothing. cmd. window just exits.
so guesse thats another brick wall for root on lg updated firmware to ics.
Mattman sorry but this method does not work.
Or I should say it did not work for me.
I even put togewther my own rendition of your files that you compiled still would not work.
In fact I am now convinced the ONLy root method for the nitro running it the one here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=30209937#post30209937
Im not saying anything against your method, it looks solid, but it would not work.
I tried it on v20c and v18f.
I now have root but want to say your efforts and work are appreciated.
I hope this is not considering hijacking the thread I wanted to post this for others with the same issues.
EDIT: Mattman I been searching through the threads and seen that you initialy used this method off of 2.3.6? Meaning you rooted from 2.3.6? ( from the cwm thread you came up with a way via script to run cwm) I am wondering maybe your method only works from 2.3.6? what firmware did you originally root from?
i tried this method on my v20c and my wife is not working.. and never get root??
please help me

[TOOL] LG P350 Optimus Me Pecan Toolkit [ROOT][RECOVERY][UNROOT]

This tool is now a legacy tool
For a more up to date version, please go to this thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1948326
This toolkit roots the lg p350 phone, then applies a recovery of your choice supplied with the software
It roots quickly and safely
it flashes the recovery quickly and safely, whether starting anew, or just fancy a change
Disclaimer
I am NOT responsible for any bricked devices, dead SD-cards, or any misfortunes that happen to you
This tool is fool proof, and if doesn't work, then YOU have broken it, YOUR phone was already bricked, or YOU Haven't followed the instructions properly
Do not Blame any developer for any problems. If it bricks devices, then it won't be published
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
You do not need to boot into fastboot. All instructions are given to you as you work
Your phone must be an LG-P350 (also called optimus me, pecan, or optimus life)
To flash recovery, it must be rooted already
Your phone does not need a recovery installed already
This includes all the different recoveries for our phone, So you don't have to go searching for them or asking anyone how to flash recovery
If your device can't be detected then it will go through checks, such as seeing if pc can see the device (windows 7 only)
It will also download and install the drivers for you silently if your computer doesn't have them, or if they are not working correctly
The root function can be used to replace using Superoneclick
This is only for Windows!
You do not need any extra software installed
To use
download the zip here
extract to where ever you want
enable usb debugging on your device (go to setting->Applications->Development)
run "antdking's p350 toolkit.bat" (could be called "antdking's p350 toolkit" depending on your system)
follow the steps
included recoveries
RZ recovery by Keyur
ClockworkMod 5.0.2.8 by Keyur
ClockworkMod 6.0.1.0 by Ron
ClockworkMod touch by Vivek
AmonRA 2.2.1 by Drapalyuk
Stock Recovery by LG
Everything is tried and tested on my phone and computer. Phone using my Bluedroid v3, computer running Windows 7 64bit
If anyone wants to suggest features, post on here
If anyone wants to alter code, or add code (only if you know what you are doing), then send the suggestions to me, I will check them and add them
Now running on Ubuntu
I need someone to port to Mac please?

The only thing that I need to do now is do root the phone and apply kdz through CLI. the kdz I think I know how to do it using fastboot. rooting the phone I don't know where to start. I'd need to find out how superoneclick works, as that's the only thing that can root the later versions of the original stock rom.
a user interface would be great. And I have to learn VB.NET for school as well.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks for your hard work, looks great..

For root, SuperOneClick uses psneuter, learn how it works and probably you'll get a better idea how to do it... Check AndroidLib.dll for VB.Net and Android communication... For flashing KDZ through fastboot, good luck on that one, for some partitions come "disassembled" and KDZ Updater I believe joins those parts... You can get a better idea of what I'm talking about using LGExtract and DZExtract, I used those tools to decompile to bits and pieces the stock ROM files... Good luck and I'll be glad to help in any way...

I have the kdz extracted already. You can push the mbn's to the phone with fastboot, but I need to research a bit more to check it

The other day I was reading at the batch code, actually it's not that different as you use wget to download what is needed which in Linux is already embedded into the system. All you need to add into the folder structure of yours is the adb binary for Linux.

It uses 7-zip as well, which I'm going to use more of later. I also need to know what each of the commands in my script is in ubuntu commands, because there are differences.
I need something that will work anywhere (like adb) that will handle zip files. I don't think you can get 7-zip like that for ubuntu. If I'm wrong can someone post it? I've had no luck, and I don't want to ask people to start installing things

I have flashed AT&T touchwiz based roms before without issues. Im not sure if the same could be done with AOSP. I would say try it, but i dont want to be help accountable if your device implodes.

By the way I have a similar thread and nobody seems to care to help on flashing that rom to tmobile. Would be nice if you help us do so too!

By recovery won't flash it do you mean it gives you a error and aborts? If so that usually means their is a error somewhere in the updater script

It aborts! I had tried to unzip to put some apps and such then zip back again and recovery aborts the flash. Never used notepad++ Also dont know if it needs any special app to zip the rom again. But Im been seeing that notepad++ is the one to do the trick

Notepad++ can be used to edit the updater script,xml's and a few other things. Also can you list the exact error it gives you when try and flash it? And to zip the rom backup I use winrar

I do everything straight from my phone using ROM toolbox app. I just advised to use a PC so that you would not need to extract the Rom and just go straight to editing the update script file, but it can be done from our phones.
Really not that hard. Whatever ROM you have. The .zip file needs to be extracted then follow my steps one page back. Then use ROM toolbox to compress the extracted folders back to a zip then flash done.
Maybe I can make a picture guide but only if there is demand for it not going to waste my time if not.

So I can flash this rom with no changes and then I can do the changes with rom tool box! I understand about wasting your time. but If you make a good thread on how to do this and ask a mod to make it to sticky so people will have Ideas on how to flash a rom from att and letting people know that it really works. We have one like that for the S2 tmobile and skyrocket

I have done it with other devices. But I have a mac so i just zip it back again like normal. But I may done it wrong. I figure it have to be zip back again in a different way to make it work with recovery.
Rocovery only abort the flash no error codes no nothing just abort.

No make the changes before flashing the rom. I guess ill start taking screenshots on how to flash the AT&T AOKP 4.2.1 Rom! Give me a few hours im at work.
Edit
scratch that Ktoonz AOKP ROM can be flashed without changing any thing to the files.
Thank you bro. Thats what we are here for to help each other lol. By the way Is that JellyBam after you changed the files. Have you ran into any bugs? How is the call quality and do you have echo?
just thought id share that i done exactly what g1master said and it worked flawlessly. all i had to do was change the d2att in the first lines to d2tmo and it worked fine. i used notepad++ to make the changed btw
Ok this is what I did. Unzip with winrar and did the steps from the op with notepad++ zip back with winrar and now that im trying to flash I get this
finding update package...
opening update package...
installing update...
installation aborted.
What am i doing wrong here?
Edit... Did the same with 7-zip and recovery aborted too.

[R&D] COMPLETE Deodexed system/framework

I noticed the previously posted de-odexed dump was not complete. Its missing several items. Below are links to my attempt at de-odexing the system apps and framework. It is a complete dump.
Deodexed framework (MD5 543acaded314224318cd90775654b57c)
Deodexed apps (MD5 58de9c029f1f62ba06dcc634020eeca9)
I have actually pushed this to my device and verified its working. I did this by "stop"ing the Android runtime, using the internal "SD" with adb push and some for loops then an adb reboot. I will not provide more detailed instructions.
I DO NOT RECOMMEND YOU TRY UNLESS YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING!
I hope other ROM developers can use this as a base once we have a safe way to restore soft bricks.

Attached is a framework-res.apk with WiFi / Bluetooth tethering enabled. I've also applied your same full battery tweaks and carrier label to SystemUI.apk (based off my deodex work) and attached it.
DO NOT TRY THESE UNLESS YOU KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING! YOU ACCEPT ALL RESPONSIBILITY!
Edit: framework-res.apk available here (sorry, too big to attach).
Ignored my own advice and installed your deodexed system. Everythings cool. I figured out how to remove the Loud Volume warning, posted here.
I'll be building off your deodexation so we have common base. Thanks.
Would someone else be able to help clarify on how to properly push these files? I kind of get what OP is saying but not quite there and I won't do anything till I'm sure how to properly push these over. I understand and accept full responsibility for what happens to my phone but I would very much enjoy help working with these files, I just need to make sure I got my procedure down.
Also we have a way to fix soft bricks now so worst comes to worst I just re-flash the stock ROM.
Just trying to help test and learn ^^

I added some instructions to install the deodexed system files from my DevResources thread.

How did you get the framework-res apk to compile and install
I managed to get mine to compile but when installed it crashes

Your audio files in res/raw must not be compressed. Replace them with no compression after recompiling.
DDMS is helpful.

The steps in his thread are more or less how I did it. The key here is "stop" to freeze the runtime. Otherwise it will notice the APKs and JARs changing and try to reprocess them - and ultimately crash the phone.

I had to rename a few layouts (keyguard_lockscreen_something). Once it recompiled, I swapped AndroidManifest.xml and the META-INF folder into the recompiled one with the files from the original APK.
So, does this contain the TW framework and all apps? I. E. could you move this to a /system of a CM or AOSP ROM and get the AllShare, S Voice, etc. apps?
romracer, what version tools are you using to decompile and recompile?
I cant get sec email to de-odex on the latest dump. Did you have any issues with that?
