Didn't work for me

Not criticising your guide or anything like that as it was really easy to follow and I had no problems carrying out the steps.

When I ran the JoelDroid Batch Deodexer everything worked fine except for one item which failed (as listed below)

Maps - FAILED - Oat2Dex Conversion Failed

I added the files to the provided template and successfully installed them using TWRP however when I tried to boot I got the first screen showing the Samsung Galaxy A3 logo with powered by Android at the bottom then it went to the animated Samsung boot logo and just stayed there. I left it for a good 30 minutes but no change. Just stuck on the animated Samsung logo.

Just so you know I'm using the A300FU version of the A3. It has the official Samsung lollipop 5.0.2 rom which has been rooted and has TWRP v2.8.7 as the custom reovery.

Hi, I have an A700F, but get the same error. I've googled little bit but found no answer or solution.
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 General] jan.kvac:
I've finally managed to get all the apk's deodexed. I've used the Java V7 Update 80 and LBD2.4.zip. No error at all. Now I'm going to flash the package and let you know if it works. Thank's for the TUTO.

UPDATE

All went well. I've flashed the zip with deodexed files. Phone has booted . After it I've installed Xposed framework and Wanam and tweaked the phone a little bit:)

Thanks again.

there is a template available here http://xdaforums.com/samsung-a-series/general/tuto-how-to-deodex-a3-a5-a7-roms-t3214058

as suggested by [MENTION=349350]jan.kvac[/MENTION] ,i tried Java V7 Update 80 and LBD2.4.zip with this deodex will not throw any erors but LBD2.5.zip still does.

thanks to [MENTION=349350]jan.kvac[/MENTION]
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 General] jan.kvac:
Yes exactly, just put the system folder you get from LBD2.4 to a prepared template (I have opened the prepared zip with 7.zip manager, and replaced the existing system folder with my own), than copy this zip to the phone, boot into recovery, wipe cache and dalvik, and flash the zip. First boot takes little longer than usual. Yes, and don't forget to backup ROM in recovery first.
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 General] nageshmv:
Hey by the way..

Other than wanam xposed.

Have u tried any other mods on the deodexed ROM?

if so can u generate the list of modules that are functional?

It would be helpful
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 General] prometh696:
I tried Wanam, Greenify, Amplify and YouTube AdAway, they seem to work fine (on an A3). SecureSettings seems to have caused instability.

Working on Samsung Galaxy A5 - A500FU

Anyone knows a solution?

EDIT: I now upgraded to Java JDK 8.66 and with 2.4 I didn't have any errors any more. The Java version apparently has some influence on the happy ending of the deodexing of all apps..
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 General] onimorza:
EDIT: everything works now

Hello,

I had no errors (anymore) with JoelDroid batch decoding my 5.0.2, all stated success.

But I'm having some doubts about the deodexed folders which I want to clear out before I go flash.

In the APP and PRIV-APP folder I have all app folders with their respective .apk, but in the APP and PRIV-APP folder I have another APP resp. PRIV-APP folder with again all .apk's but also an ARM folder with an .odex.xz file.

It looks like this example:

Deodexed APP folder:

Deodex/system/app/AASAservice/AASAservice.apk
Deodex/system/app/AccessControl/AccessControl.apk
...

… All folders like this with .apk files, except there is another “app” folder inside with again ALL app folders and inside those an .apk and .odex.xz file:

Deodex/system/app/app/AASAservice/AASAservice.apk
Deodex/system/app/app/AASAservice/arm/AASAservice.odex.xz
Deodex/system/app/app/AccessControl/AccessControl.apk
Deodex/system/app/app/AccessControl/arm/AccessControl.odex.xz
...

Deodexed FRAMEWORK folder:

Deodex/system/framework/allshare.jar
Deodex/system/framework/am.jar
...

… all .jar files, except 2x .apk:

Deodex/system/framework/framework-res.apk
Deodex/system/framework/Twframework-res.apk
...

Deodexed PRIV-APP folder (same structure as APP folder):

Deodex/system/priv-app/CloudAgent/CloudAgent.apk
Deodex/system/priv-app/CSC/CSC.apk
...

… All folders like this with .apk files, except there is another “priv-app” folder inside with again ALL app folders and inside those an .apk and .odex.xz file:

Deodex/system/priv-app/priv-app/CloudAgent/CloudAgent.apk
Deodex/system/priv-app/priv-app/CloudAgent/arm/CloudAgent.odex.xz
Deodex/system/priv-app/priv-app/CSC/CSC.apk
Deodex/system/priv-app/priv-app/CSC/arm/CSC.odex.xz
...

Is this correct?
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 General] PaYDaY:
No it's not this folder is still odexed ??
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 General] quocbt:
Great

Done A500H, deodexed rom and installed xposed. My experience: I used JoelDroidLollipop 2.4 and java7. When i use JoelDroidLollipop 2.5 and java8, it's fail.
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 General] onimorza:
Thanks, but can someone then please give me an example of a deodexed folder and file types so I know where towards to work to? Would be greatly appreciated!

Don't know why the output of this program still gives me an odexed folder though :confused:
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 General] PaYDaY:
the deodexed folder will be exactly the same as the odexed one but with no .odex files

it will contain 3 folders apps,priv-apps and framework

in folder apps you will see a lot of folders (a folder for each app) and every folder has the .apk file with no .odex file in the arm folder

and it's the same for the priv-apps folder

the folder framework will have .jar files and also with no .odex files

if that what you got then you now have a deodexed folder and you can flash it and if not iam sorry i can't help cause i still noob

but some one may help you

Good Luck :):):)

---------- Post added at 11:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:00 PM ----------

but i think that you should delete that folders which contains .odex files and keep the folder apps and priv-app with no .odex files and flash it after deleting the folder inside them that contain .odex files

i hope you understand my bad english :fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed:
[Galaxy A3, A5, A7, A8, A9 General] LumpyNtZ:

then i rebooted back into download mode, and flashed the .IMG file for TWRP recovery through Odin.

How to change the Speech Dial to something different (handsfree set -> green button)

Hi!

I own a MDAcIII with the O2 WM6-Update installed on it. When I press the green Button of my Parrot Evo CK 3000 (handsfree set), the Speech Dial appears. I don't want to use the speech dial, I want that the list of last dialed Numbers appears. How can I change this Feature?

Thanks!

Hi!

Not sure if this suggestion will help or not, hope it does. I have and o2 orbit with WM6 (B&B v3.7 cause Tom Codon Rocks:) ) and a Jabra headset when i press the button once on the headset it goes to the speech dial appears but if i double click it (quickly) it ether calls last number dialled or opens the dial pad.
[P3300, MDA Compact III General] KobiP:
Sorry, that doesn't happen in combination with the Parrot Handsfree. Double press is the same as once, speech dial. But if I press the green button longer, I redial.
