Odex -> <- Problem / Confusion

---

I know the technical difference b/w ODex-ed and DeODex-ed

I have an odexed ROM

I simply want some applications (apks) from my Previous ROM, which was deodexed

• When I PUT .apk files from My Previous ROMs ZIP to my Device's system/app - I get FC
  
• When I restore apps like Go Launcher Ex, from Titanium Backup, I still get FC for that

Any Info...?

I want to use some apps from my Previous ROM
I want Rotary LockScreen
Also, a Professional Theme, Odexed

As I have seen that odexed ROM are so incredibly smooth in almost every aspect
(Not only 1st boot or initial days)

Help appreciated !!

the anserw is simle if your previous firmware was deodexed:
Youraplicationname.odex is missing

Deleting th old apk & dex file, bfore replacing, should work, then?

you must either have all files in pairs apk + odex (thats odex)
or apk only (thats deodexed)

when looking at /system/framework/
that would be jar + odex (odex) or jar only (deodexed)

I am talking bout MyFiles.apk

I want new Samsung's MyFiles.apk

So I will delete old apk & dex files
Then put new apk file

I'm pretty sure I tried this some time ago and found it will not work. The MyFiles.apk is strictly linked to the ROM you are using, something to do with the framework, so you cannot use one on another ROM version.

As for other apk's, if the file you want to use is deodexed, you simply delete the new apk and odex file and put the old one in its place although be warned, it may cause instability on your ROM if you do this with system apk files

ok whatever if you know better

Yup
Thanks

U got my doubt clear

I was not replacing MyFiles actually

Was just giving an example so that $omator thinks I understood

Also
The irony is most of th times, its th system apks tht have dex files

If its not a system apk, I wud rather download th latest 4m market
