[Galaxy S II Android Development] kanye92:
Hi guys,

Having had a pleasant and appreciative response from members after publishing my deodex update.zip for the UK Sim-free release of XWLP7, I have decided to add XWLP8 and XWLP9.

Whats different about this???

This is not a full ROM - this mod purely deodexes your current stock ROM to enable faster boot and optimal performance without losing the stock feel. It means you can customise your ROM however you please and apply this update at any time :)

Also, whilst there are a few renowned deodexers who we depend upon, they do not deodex every firmware that comes out which is the main reason I started this thread as I wanted the UK LP7 deodexing - therefore I aim to deodex every firmware that comes out.

Why deodex???

There are several modifications which may prove useful to you but require a deodexed rom:

In most cases, you can only apply themes to deodexed ROM's as theming cannot handle the .apk and .odex files which odexed ROM's have - deodexing compresses these two files into the .apk and classes.dex thereby enabling yiu to apply themes or theme yourself :)

This update zipaligns your .apk's on every boot. Zipaliging is the process of reorganizing the manner in which the .apk is packaged to optimize it for being parsed faster by the Android OS which is better than the ODEX structure.

Therefore you get the best of both worlds as you can theme to your heart's content AND have an optimal ROM which will run faster and smoother :D

How to???

In order to apply the deodex update you will need:

The stock odexed firmware for which you want to deodex

To copy the update.zip over to your SD card or internal storage

**Optional**Wipe cache and dalvik-cache (not essential but preferable as it will remove any traces of the .odex files)

Flash through CWM the .zip which will replace your app and framework folders with the updated deodexed files.

Reboot and enjoy :)

Please note, your first boot may take around 5 minutes as the ROM is optimised so do please be patient. If for any reason your phone does not boot or you feel it is taking too long, try the two following options:

Wipe cache and dalvik-cache if you have not already done so.

Perform a full wipe as the .odex files may be conflciting the deodex changes.

If still no avail, please post a comment on here or PM me and I will try my best to help you :)

Not happy with the update???

Being as nice as i am ;) i have included the update.zip to take you straight back to an odexed ROM. All you have to do is flash the XWLP*Revert2Odex.zip through CWM and your back to how you were before so there is no risk whatsoever in taking this for a spin and checking it out :D

A Kind Note

Thanks guys, please leave feedback and requests :D

If this has helped you in anyway, feel free to make a small donation to fuel my coffee addiction at university ;) or just hit thanks :D
