[guide] how to deodex rom on atrix hd - Motorola Atrix HD

Hi guys, let me introduce myself. I'm Devilsking and I'm themer/developer here since I had Samsung Galaxy Ace. I just bought new Atrix HD and now I come here and work with you guys. So let's say HELLO!
Today I will write a guide about how to deodex rom on ATRIX HD. My Atrix is AT&T version with Jelly Bean 4.1.1. Hope I can help all Atrix users here to have new beginning in modding/theming Atrix HD.
Requirements:
- Your laptop/pc has installed Java. If not, google it.
- An rooted Atrix HD (and if your phone's unlocked bootloader, it's better and better :laugh
- Have installed ADB on windows. If not, plz download here then run *.exe to install (run in administration mode if it's needed but normally u dont need)
- Deodex Tools (Credit for superatmos & jaydvn) (Download here)
Now Let's do it:
- Extract deodex tools to a folder
- Copy all *.apk và *.odex in /system/app and /system/framework to folder "_app" và "_framework"
- Run file "AutoDEOToolMain.bat" and Select option 1 - DEODEX ALL (STOCK ROM)
- After it's finished, deodexed files will be located in "deodexed_APK" (this is files in /system/app) và "deodexed_JAR" (this is files in /system/framework)
- Copy these two folders to internal storage or external storage (sdcard) if u have.
- Open CMD and type the following commands to give the access to write on system:
Code:
adb shell
su
mount -o remount rw /system
- If you copy 2 folders "deodexed_APK" & "deodexed_JAR" to sdcard, the next commands will be as below:
Code:
cp /storage/sdcard1/deodexed_APK/* /system/app/
cp /storage/sdcard1/deodexed_JAR/* /system/framework/
rm /system/app/*.odex
rm /system/framework/*.odex
reboot
If you copy 2 folders "deodexed_APK" & "deodexed_JAR" to internal storage, just change "sdcard1" to "sdcard0" in the commands above
Screenshot for commands:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
- After "reboot" command, your Atrix will be rebooted and show up the popup: "Android is upgrading". Let it finish and u're done.

Not sure what could be wrong with your Java, but as far as the locations go, easiest thing I did was extract the rom with winrar/winzip, and well, I'll show ya!
Everything in /system/app on the rom to _app and everything in framework to _framework.

ok so i aside from the java problem, im having trouble accessing the root files from windows... how can i get that done?

I presume by "root" you mean taking the odex/apks out of system/app and system/framework? I know there is commands to do it via shell, but I use http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=700904 that xUltimate and just pull them with that, it never deodexed them well for me, but I used it to extract without issue every-time

If you have ADB properly installed, created two folders on your sdcard, apps and framework
Then run this in a command line after plugging in your phone while in usb development mode
Code:
adb shell
su
cp /system/app/* /storage/sdcard1/app
cp/system/framework/* /storage/sdcard1/framework
Then you should have the two folders with all your apps and framework folder in your SD card folders now
Don't forget to run "su" you will have to allow access on your superuser app on the phone

plug into usb and run the following commands

Use whatever Windows based deodex tool you prefer...I only know the Linux ones.

Ah that's what pull is for, the deodextool from the first post works great I've already deodexed my rom and it works well

[MOD] Gingerbread Keyboard on Atrix! (Updated 4/15/11)

First thing before we start, YOU MUST HAVE A DEODEXED SYSTEM. If you don't know what that means, stop here.
Ok, now we can continue.
This is a quick howto and a mod on how to use Gingerbread Soft Keyboard on Atrix.
1. Download http://nma.usk.bz/atrix.php (Link fixed)
2. Decompress copy them to your phone sdcard:
Code:
adb push GBKeyboard /mnt/sdcard/GBKeyboard
3. Now open a shell on your phone:
Code:
adb shell
4. Become root:
Code:
$ su
5. Backup the original files in case something goes wrong:
Code:
# mkdir /mnt/sdcard/kb_backup
# cp /system/app/LatinIME.apk /mnt/sdcard/kb_backup
# cp /system/lib/libjni_latinime.so /mnt/sdcard/kb_backup
6. Now mount your /system as read-write:
Code:
# mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mmcblk0p12 /system
7. Now copy the Gingerbreak keyboard files to your system, overwriting the current ones:
Code:
# cp /mnt/sdcard/GBKeyboard/LatinIME.apk /system/app/LatinIME.apk
# cp /mnt/sdcard/GBKeyboard/libjni_latinime.so /system/lib/libjni_latinime.so
Done, you now have a Gingerbread keyboard on your Atrix. This is the stock Gingerbread keyboard right from a Nexus S ROM. It's not a themed keyboard.
There is one known issue, vibrate on key_press is not working. But that's pretty much the only issue that I found. Everything else works. Everything should be working! Let me know of any issues!
And remember: Backup your /system! If you brick your phone, don't blame me!
One last thing, to answer the questions about why you should use this one instead of the market one or other APKs. This is the stock GB keyboard tweaked for the Atrix screen resolutions. You can see the difference on the screenshots below:
On the left the Stock GB Keyboard tweaked(this one I posted) and on the right the Market/other apks:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
And on landscape more: (you can see on the picture below that the market one also doesnt leave much space for the input form)
Changelog :
4/15/2011
Fixed some broken links.
v2 :
- Fixed some minor cosmetic bugs! Should look a little better overall.
- HapticFeedback is working!
- Based on the Gingerbread keyboard from stock 2.3.2
how is this different from that gingerbread keyboard on the marketplace?
The gingerbread keyboard in the market also works on the atrix. Does this mod have the small keys due to resolution or has it been tweaked for the atrix?
does this compare to Better Keyboard Gingerbread theme?
I just downloaded the one off the market and it seems to be the exact one I had on my captivate

This is the stock gingerbreak keyboard, taken direct from a NexusS and twaked for the Atrix. It has the exact same look and feel and functionalities as the Stock one, including the auto-complete bar above the keyboard.
I have the gingerbread keyboard on mine and it was a simply apk installation .....

Which APK did you use? When I tried to just install the stock APK from Gingerbread, I got Force Close problems, because of the lib that was incomplatible. And then even when I updated the lib, the keyboard was too small, because of the different resolution of the Atrix. So I still had to tweak the apk.

Would you mind to share the apk that you are using? We could be talking about different apks.

sure... like i said first time u choose the keyboard it displays small letters go back to imput method and select stock keyboard then select gingerbread again.. u have to do that once only .. not like u have to do that procedure often unless u go back to stock keyboard then u want gingerbread again
I don't mind the Gingerbread keyboard that I posted a link to 4 days ago, but the one from the market works awesome, especially because of the skins and the other features you just don't get from the APK - stick with the market one and pay the small fee to get even more skins if you like, I love it!

The other keyboard will vibrate. You just have to go into the advance settings and change vibration intensity from the phone setting to your own setting.

Yeah, where were you looking? The Market one has levels of intensity - the APK just has a checkbox. Which one of those has more control?

I will post a screenshot later, but the stock gingerbread one adapted for the Atrix screen looks a lot better than the Market Gingerbread keyboard or that other apk posted here.
Also, the stock one I posted is tweaked to give you a little more room while on landscape mode.
I updated the original post with screenshots showing the differences between the stock one tweaked for the Atrix resolution and the market or other apks.
I got the files from your zip copied over but afterwards the only keyboard options I had was swype. Any ideas?
I am running the ADEO ROM from DG.

Does this app works on joe.stone's AOSP ROM?
If so it is just exacly what im needing im good with those 2 options but i see the project in mind goes beyond that and definitely is something it was missing for everybody all-in-1 app sounds awesome.
Hope you make it possible, one suggestion please put screenshots so users have a better idea how it will look like

Ill have to look at the system layout, but should be semi compatible with all phones/ roms(uses standard terminal commands). Apart from flashing the recovery image witch is only for gt540.
I took a look at the source code used in z4root and copyed alot of the codes used. If anyone know how to copy assets to sdcard can you Let me know Because I plan to put apn and a recovery image inside of the apps assets.
Ill give another update by friday with images, brilliant idea lavero.burgos
Edit: yep will work fine on stock 2.1 and clean android 2.3.2
Edit: next release will be able to run on all rom(need to add a library)

2 questions :
1st : will this app maybe work an any android devices?
2nd : YOUR WORK IS GREAT ! but will you make this like a "ROM manager" for our phone?
thx
i was thinking of making a lg gt540 type ROM manager if lukemovement1 can tell me how he made this app
The download of recovery.Img wont work on other phones, and nor will the rom list. But everything else is universal, And ye you could cool this a gt540 rom manager, I'm gunna add a few extras in aswell so any requests ill do my best at.
I made the app by looking at z4root source code, in the sdk.
EDIT: A minor bug to remove and The first non beta version will be ready, I think I also found a way around the hidden menu.
thanks might give it ago at the weekend

Ok Guy ignore what I said about a small bug because there's now a problem. Stock Roms don't have all the file I need in /system/bin. But the good news is I think II have found out how to extract assets from an. apk file. About a week and it should be all sorted, and maby setapn will be in my next update.
EDIT:then again maby 2 days
I think you should ask the moderator to move this thread to the GT540 Optimus Themes and Apps section, just to make the forum look clean
setapn works a treat thanks

depends on which way you look at it because its not just a descusion about the app, and i may need a few people to give feed back about any problems
i trie this app with my friend's "Unflashable" GT540, and it downloads the recovery, flashes it, but cannot reboot into recovery, either with inbuilt chooser, or home+call
dunno what's wrong with this phone

A phew questions about you mates phone.
1. Stock rom?(if not what rom?)
2.fully rooted with z4root?
3. Ever use the kdz updater?
It may be a problem with a built-in library file in the wrong directory, should be sorted by tonight.
Does anyone know if we need a custom radio to enable us to boot into recovery mode???
here's the link with the topic with my problem, phone is regulary flashed every time, kdz flashes it OK, but there's no change on the ROM.
1. Yes, Europe Open stock 2.1
2. Yes
3. Yes, used for flashing EUOpen, on 5 phones. mall worked but this one. damn.
MY Problem On XDA
so i think, okay maybe it could work if i directly flash from phone with your app, but no.
tryed a few gides over terminal emulator, no success.
if you can help with this it would be awesome
can you try flash you phone with the kdz updater following this guide. this unlocked bootloader and recovery for me.
it was stock 2.1...dunno, it worked well on other roms.
tryed russian with fastboot and quarx but either isn't flashed, it says it is, but loads up same ROM always
how do you mean unlock bootloader mode, was i just plain lucky with 5 phones??
some details?
boatloader is a mode like recovery but it is complete seprate from the boot.img, system.img and recovery.img. i think it runs of the phones radio.img which is first started up when the phone is turned on.
would you be able to use a completely different computer because when i try to force an update on my phone i ended up hacking the cmd at a library and finishing the update from there.
read through the guide i suggested because there is something you have to disable i think on you pc for the update to work and i thiunk youhave to use modefied lg drivers.
When it says for recovery flash (not froyo or gingerbread) I'm on black quarx 2.1 do I need to put the recovery file into sd/downloads and sd/download or just one?

fix busybox dependencies with Stephen's Busybox installer app
ln -s /system/bin/busybox /system/etc/webtop2sd/busybox so that /system/bin/mountosh knows where to look for busybox to mount the new partition.
Use installer to put busybox in /system/bin. Right now it's probably installed under /bin.
I started a doc this weekend when I was rebuilding my phone. These are the steps I used. I used them again last night after I whorked up my webtop.
And I have to do them again right now since I just updated Aura to 1.1.0. Copying and pasting is so much easier off one document.
This doc basically is a compilation of the threads of how to do everything. Just jammed in one doc.
And it has worked for me. So use at your own risk, all warnings that have been stated in the quoted threads apply.
PM to me corrections if necessary and I'll update. I was typing the same time I was applying the mods. I've read it a couple of times, looks good to me but I'm biased.
Here it is......

I used the program to install 1.19 in system/bin, but i dont know what that means

Is that a command im supposed to run? If so, where does it begin, in -s or in in? Can i do that in android terminal emulator?

The command is 'ln -s /system/bin/busybox /system/etc/webtop2sd/busybox' creates a symbolic link to the busybox binary (installed in /system/bin/) to the link in /system/etc/webtop2sd/busybox. You can read more about it by doing a 'man ls' on any ubuntu box or on http://manpages.ubuntu.com.
This shouldn't be required, but for some reason, paths don't show up and it's a workaround that I've confirmed works. Sogarth is working on a fix for this in an upcoming version of WebTop2SD. Until then, try my suggested fixes...
Hope this helps,
Alex
About to attempt this on my phone, wish me luck. Perhaps I'm asking for a flaming, but I was wondering if it would be possible to package this into a newb friendly zip. Or if developers could include it in their roms? I enjoy using ubuntu on my laptop and would love to replace webtop with it.

I actually have steps 1 & 3 done in what will be the working version of Joe's webtop mod v2, as my last one didn't work that well and I thought I owed it to Joe to give him a working one. If you're brave, you can moto-flash this now.

I say brave because I have yet to flash it myself, I'm unlocking my wife's 1.8.3 right now so I can, but it'll take awhile to do so. I'll post it in Joe's thread once I've confirmed it works.
Worse comes to worse, it won't work and you'll need to flash Joe's v1 again...
Hope this helps,
Alex

I actually have steps 1 & 3 done in what will be the working version of Joe's webtop mod v2, as my last one didn't work that well and I thought I owed it to Joe to give him a working one. If you're brave, you can moto-flash this now.

Thank you, will post my results.
EDIT: I flashed it successfully but nothing appears to have changed(had joe's version installed). Did I forget something?
Hmmm... flashed a couple of times on mine, got nothing, just like you described... Did it again a final time and now webtop is dead... Removing for now...
Im exercising deep patience here, but I dont know what to do anymore. I unninstalled the script and the app, then began it from scratch. First created the webtop2sd folder, then installed busybox on /bin, then executed the command to create the link. Installed webtop2sd, executed with partitioning and formatting, rebooted the phone, told to reinstall configurator, reboot again, and still, when clicking the configurator on webtop, nothing happens. =|
Im starting to teach myself how to use google docs, looking up office 365 too, because this just isnt working...

Would it be possible to use the backtrack mod with this? I finally got everything working, but having backtrack would seal the deal.

Used qume and other methods for launching a windows image even had micro xp all the way to installation with qume mimicking the 32-bit minimal specs but it kicked out half way through expanding the copied files realistically the specs arnt enough to support a full vm through qume or vb though when and if the next windows is cross platform on arm and 32-bit and 64-bit we may or may not be able to try a windows vm through qume or vb. Though to skip installation all together track down standalone xp it launches in a windows platform without installation using qume and try booting the image in ubuntu I haven't matched the specs to get it booted its missing something I have a link I can pm from my dropbox (I doubt it after trying several attempts myself but hell your welcome to try)

[Mod] init.d I9300 Installer

init.d for stock rooted Samsung based I9300 ROM without supported custom kernel or baked into rooted ROM
Tested on my device running wanamlite v4.2.1
Requirements
1. Rooted I9300 ROM with busybox
2. custom Recovery (CWM or touch)
3. No supported init.d kernel or ROM
Installation Instructions
1. Download init.d_I9300_ Installer.zip & place on internal sdcard
2. Flash in custom Recovery and reboot
Adding Scripts
a) Copy your favorite init.d scripts into system/etc/init.d folder, set permissions for those particular scripts and reboot OR
b) Flash your scripts packaged in a CWM flashable zip in Recovery and reboot
Set Permissions Example : using Root Explorer app from my own SGT-P6810 ROM
Mount system R/W
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Long tap on script → set permissions → OK → reboot device
To check it's actually worked
Navigate with a root explorer :
1. data/local/tmp/init.d_log_test.txt
2. system/etc/init.d folder
3. system/etc/install-recovery.sh
4. system/bin/sysinit
If they're all there, all has gone well, and you're all set to go
You may delete #1 init.d_log_test.txt and 99test from inside init.d folder when done. It's just a way to confirm scripts will actually run on boot.
Above #2-4 are required to run your scripts, so don't mess with them!
But you can add / delete any "suitable" script inside the init.d folder though (as always, have a recent nandroid backup in safe place in case your device has any issues!)

Hi! I have a few questions.
In Installation Instructions...when you say "Place your favorite init.d scripts into init.d folder, set permissions and reboot"....with 'set permissions' do you mean the permissions to my personal files I'm adding to the folder?
If YES...which are the correct permissions for those files?
Other question but about the Checking if it's Working....must I execute the "install-recovery.sh" file after last reboot or what?
In case YES, what does it to?
What about the 'sysinit' file? Why is that file needed for adding the init.d folder support? Should I delete also that one once I've made all the tests?
Thank your very much.

Please re-read OP as some more info and screen-shots added.
Don't forget to nandroid in case you have any issues with your scripts!
You can write your own, search XDA and Google for many. But this thread isn't a tutorial on that, it's just a Mod................

Ok I understand it's a mod...but why is it needed to execute the ".sh" file?
Is it a one execution file that will be never executed again?
What does it do?
Just very curious and very interested in if that file and related binary are so important to remain in my phone if I will never run/use them again.
Thank you.

I'm not 100% sure, I've only adapted DooMLoRD's work for my P6810 ROM and I9300 Mod here, and then packaged into a CWM zip with correct system mount etc
I have deleted the data/local/tmp/init.d_log_test.txt, renamed both sysinit and install-recovery.sh (.bak) and rebooted. A new log file was present with "done". I suppose they are not possibly needed after flash (could be wrong), but I have not tested (and don't plan to) any further. In any case, the files are just a few bytes each.
Credit was given in Post #1, so as I'm not the original creator, maybe you could post your curiosity in his thread there ?

Thank you very much. Just asked

No problem.
I agree to leave it alone.
The log and test script can be safely removed though.

Dear sgsplus,
What is the difference between this and the old rom???
Thanks!!!

Here i worked more on old bootloader to make it a bit better, and change some things in both (new and old bl) roms.
Thats the reason why it gots a new name which sounds better as the old
Old bootloader roms runs now smoother and better... new bootloader are basicly same.
Both gets updates and more.
Just flash it and enjoy the OptiX
We have detected some problems...
Work now on it, upload soon new roms, which will solved this problems
Thank you for understanding

This is possible if you set the system partition to 512MB using the AIOT here in xda.

My friend in AIO you have only 2 options
512MB or 1024MB (Dual Boot)
But its better to hold the system partition so clean as possible... better for you and your phone

yes i always do that. I Asked because i thought there is a performance issue.
And another thing.
Every kernel and rom ICS i tried Stock and CM alike, I have one tiny problem with the phone. After some time of uptime my phone proximity sensor stops working and when I'm in call the screen is on and i push random buttons and its really annoying . This can happen in a few hours uptime or it will not happen for days the only way to fix it its restart.
So i got to ask is this a ROM or Kernel related problem? Anyone else has this problem?
I haven't had the time to test this rom yet, but i was using your previous rom and i had the same bug.
Tnx in advance.
how it is this rom compared to opganex? I want to change to modded stock ICS rom and now that this rom came up I don't know wich of them is better
