[ROM] 100% Stock L720_OD2 - 5.0.1
I have been able to adapt muniz_ri's OD2 zip for the jfltespr to a deodexed and deknoxed ROM zip.
To install the new ROM is use standard ROM zip methods:
1. copy the zip to the extSdCard
2. TWRP recovery
3. Go into recovery mode.
4. Wipe Dalvik, Cache, system, data.
5. Perform factory reset before installing zip
6. Install zip.
7. Reboot.
I made no changes in muniz_ri's ROM except to deodex the system folders in JoelDroid's deodex utility, and run the deknox utility in archikitchen.
This has been tested on SPH-L720 (jfltespr) .
As soon as I have download link I will post it below (see post #6)
Here are screenshots of the apps installed in the debloated ROM as well as some of the SystemUI and framework-res mods in the status bar (these mods are in the separate links, not in the debloated ROM.
