I totally disagree. Odexed roms are MUCH smoother and I have zero trouble theming odexed roms. I think you will find my odexed rom to be as thoroughly themed or more so than any in these forums.

Just remember .. there is a reason that they are released odexed to begin with. That is the way the Dalvik VM is designed to run. A deodexed rom is just not as optimized .. IMO.

Remember .. ODEX is an acronym for optimized dalvik executable. Deodexed is well... de-optimized and redundant.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Exit_Only:
I totally agree. From all the research I have done odexed is the way to go. I will be releasing a 99% odexed ROM in the future within these forums in the next week or two hopefully. I just ran out of time. I gotta work on my scripts :D
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] arrogant437:
Well hell...i learned something today. I thought deodexed stock was faster..etc...thsnks for the info Exit/Steve.

I have a nandroid of my "perfect" deodexed stock Rom..looks like i have to switch over to odexed now...DLing now
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Exit_Only:
I will be putting out an update today. This will odex the remaining apps I forgot. Only 4 apps will remain deodexed ;)

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] orlzzt:
Until I came to the GS3 and saw Strongsteve's work, I didn't even think it was possible to theme an Odexed rom. [MENTION=3585174]gruesomewolf[/MENTION] set me straight and explained it. I think its just simpler to theme everything if it is deodexed.

This is one of those timeless android arguments; I just always use the rom I like best and leave the particulars to the geniuses (aka the developers).

Thank you, OP, for sharing your hard work with our community!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] timmetal6669:
I've been familiar with strong Steve's odexed blue since the gingerbread days of the e4gt gs2! Lol ya, and i disagreed with him back then as well. The first steap in moddind a odexed file is to DE-odex it. Then modify, then re odex with dex opt wrapper using dsixda's kitchen dex opt wrapper or cygwin. This is not user friendly. This is much harder for the average user. For us maybe not, true.. But for someone who just wants a custom ROM, and some mods.. Well, i really just don't see enough difference in dalvik for the hassle. But i won't argue about it, some people do see a difference and prefer it. I think its commendable that you made this script/zip none the less. Very nice development. Would come in handy for stock modded roms or anything that you want to odex. Again, good job on this bro.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] 88EVGAFTW:
Did I miss anything, or can we use this zip to Odex a rom that is DeOdexed already? Or this zip just for a rom that is already Odexed? I am running MOAR 3.0 and curious about Odexing it if this will work for it.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mightybryan:
Yeah me too. I'm on MOAR 4.0.1. Can I just flash this over it?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] iamikon:
Only on roms that are odexed for now. It just odexes apps that are not odexed.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] CNexus:
Yeah, to clarify for everyone, this mod simply ADDS the odexed versions of the apps that were not originally odexed on the stock rom.

It will not odex your deodexed rom.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] deeznut2:
Anyone else notice this mod breaking their Google search?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Exit_Only:
My google search works just fine...
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Cbass15:
I'm not sure if this is correct.. But I think it will break your theme and cause a bootloop. Not 100% sure.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Exit_Only:
Yes the first step to modding a rom is to deodex the app and jars then you re-odex to restore optimized dalvik exec (odex). Disagree with what you want. A deodexed rom will have more lags and freezes cause the dalvik is no longer optimized the way google engineers intended to be. I will stick with what google engineers say as then know way more then any of us ;)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Exit_Only:
No boot loops but it will only be partly odexed ;)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Exit_Only:
I will make it to where it will in the next version ;)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] deeznut2:
Sorry, I should have been more specific. I use the Google search bar widget and when I press the microphone to launch a voice search, it will force close upon searching. The actual Google now application seems to work until I, again, perform a search.

I temporarily managed to get around this problem by deleting the system/app/velvet.apk and installing Google search from the market then moving the Google search apk from the data/app folder to the system/app folder. If I don't move the apk will I get forced closes after restarting the phone.

Btw.. thanks again for this Exit...its the reason i switched back to odex :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Exit_Only:
Give me the pieces i can odex them :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] CNexus:
I hope you know that that's not the same as truly odexing their rom. You can't actually odex their rom since the phone is in recovery mode and dexopt-wrapper needs the phone to be booted up to run it.

Any mods or tweaks that they have will be lost, because v0.0.4 will basically be an entire odexed stock rom.

What I would suggest is creating and extracting an init.d script that odexes their apps at boot, then make it write to some file so that it doesnt do it again at the next boot.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Exit_Only:
A script is an easy way of doing this. I like to actually do stuff by hand when possible.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] CNexus:
That wasn't the point of my post. The point is that you're basically going to be installing an odexed stock rom for whoever flashes it. You're not actually odexing their existing apps or frameworks.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Exit_Only:
Good point...

Sorry i havent responded been busy...what if I just flash this the way I have my stock setup will it just odex the files it can? Or will it screw something up...

I was mostly giving eo a hard time :) would it be worthwhile to odex cm10.1? If so it would be greatly appreciated and a nice change of pace.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Exit_Only:
Thats why i posted my universal odex script for you ;) it will auto odex cm10.1 for you :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bog3nator:
So that script would odex anything and not interfere or mess up any rom. Things just got interesting :)

Ah it bootlooped my cm 10.1 :)
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] CNexus:
Backup I hope?
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] iamikon:
Nah never :) i flash and test stuff constantly for people so everything important gets backed up prior to doing anything. Nandroids take up too much space lol
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] CNexus:
Haha, thats true

I keep 1 nandroid of my best setup and restore that whenever anything goes wing because I don't install too many apps or mods anyway

Use rom manager app to switch to CWM v6.0.3.1 and see if that makes a difference. TWRP is always super buggy for me. You do NOT need the Touch version of CWM. I paid the $1.99 cause koush is an amazing coder. The non touch version is just as good :)

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Exit_Only:
If there deodexed they are junk IMHO.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bog3nator:
I think part of the issue is many don't know the differences between odexed and deodex. Odex is better on memory and boot speed. But if you like to mod your phone a lot after a new rom install then deodex may be the better way to go for some.

I am running AxisM and it is deodex and it was way faster then Odex stock and then I odexed AxisM and it's even faster

AxisM infected GSIII

Has there been a solution to adjusting the audio sensitivity for recording loud music at concerts?
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] vkonovalov:
Hi,

I noticed that OS constantly unloads my applications. :cry:

Say, I visit some page using IE, then switch to another application, then switch back - it is usually at the same page, but, probably depending on idle time, it sporadically gets closed.

That said, when I go to IE again, it starts afresh on its initial page and I must reload my page again. Needless to say, in most cases this is unacceptable. (extra traffic, so it costs $$, also GPRS could become unavailable etc :x )

How do I PREVENT this behaviour?

Not only IE suffers, any application! Sporadically exits despite of fact there are tons of free memory and I would better free resources with another way than just closing what is required for me.

I have elder device with PocketPC 3.0 (Cassiopeia E-125) and it does NOT behave in such a way. Does not close even it has 4times less memory! Now I understand how nice it is.

While this problem persists, I forced to have both devices with me.

Please help me solving this!

Vadim.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Carlos:
I've noticed the same behavior randomly also. I don't have a fix, but you're not alone.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] BRosenow:
What ROM version are you using? There was an issue with the earlier ROMS in that there were too many programs running and when you launched another program the OS would terminate a background program to provide the necesssary process space.

The newer ROMs have solved this problem, but CheckNotify and ClearNotify (search the forum) will help with the earlier ROMs.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] surur:
This is an old problem, related to the number of running processes.

Consult this thread

http://www.ppcw.net/?itemid=1645

which will show you how to solve it. Also the newer roms cut down on the number of processes at startup, which helps.

Surur
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Carlos:
Mine is much more random than that described. Sometimes I can have a half dozen apps open with no problem, and sometimes a single app will close itself while I work in the phone or the Today screen.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] mtbsoft:
Don't forget that we are talking processes, not appications, here. One app. may have many processes and multiple app's may use the same common processes. Therefore, launching one application can generate a number of new processes and that can push you over the limit (e.g. ActiveSync, which launches three or four I recall), so something gets nuked.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] Carlos:
I understand, and was looking for a pattern, but there is none. In fact, it seems reversed, as it happens more often while I'm just out and about and less frequenty while the device is in the cradle. Very often it happens after a fresh boot with a single app running.

I may look at it more closely with a process viewer. It's not bugging me enough to make it a priority.
[MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General] vkonovalov:
Thank you all for providing many help!

That explains it all, many fruitful comments, and a prove that there could be no fix but just temporary solutions to reduce a problem a bit.

It is a bit larger problem in my case, because I use special sotware to support Russian.

Too bad MS can't recognize and fix such a big design mistakes.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Xandr0s:
Hi, I have been searching the forum but there isnt a definite answer. So far I gather that not every kernal is compatible with every ROM.

I am running PACMAN V22.11 [link]

And want to try Franco.Kernel [link]

Franco's thread only mentions Android OS version. And nothing regarding roms (searhced that thread for pacman as well)

Is it compatible with PACMAN? Can I go ahead and flash my first kernal? (excited :fingers-crossed: )

Bonus | Whilst we are at it, I wouldnt mind anyone side mentioning proven kernals for battery improvement. Or best performance/battery kernals they have used

Guys, is franco kernal compatible with all roms based on android 4.2.2 for galaxy nexus?

Thats it. Please?

That's because usually only OS version, not ROM, matters for kernel compatibility.

If it says it's 4.2.2 compatible, yes.

I've tried each and every rom that is of ICS and JB .. i have always been having problems, mostly the phone being slow with more apps installed and there have always been problems with the call functionality, such as at times when im getting a call the phone just keeps on vibrating and the phone gets hanged and i always have to take the battery off, this actually doesn't happen very often but it does.. and it gets very annoying at times.. the phone gets slower by more apps being installed such as viber, whatsapp.. the call problems mostly occurs when viber is installed

the thing i wanted to know is, if i go for GB in my phone as it being a lower version of android, is it possible that my phone gets faster .. my friend has a low end phone that has GB but i get jealous at times cause when i see him using his phone it just is very fast! and i want my phone to be like that too..

i only use normal apps such as whatsapp,viber, tango, temple run and some games.
