Would we be able to dirty flash the deodexed rom over the odex rom?

no harm in trying, worst case should be you having to factory reset after it boots up due to apps not working or instabilities.

 

[kwknott]

I've dirty flashed between the two before and it's hit or miss. One time it was fine and another time everything was force closing. If you try make a backup first. Actually mame a backup no matter which route you try.

LG ONE CLICK ROOT does help in case there is a problem again

Link2SD does app removal and can convert user apps to system apps in the free version. You really shouldn't just go in and manually delete apk files out of the system, which I'm getting the impression you were doing. You don't know what you'll leave behind which can lead to instability.

Download that and use the post I linked above as a reference for what you can remove. Be sure to check the notes as to the impact of what removing certain things is.

Hey bg4m3r, just curious, do you prefer Link2SD to remove bloatware (or apps) over other apps? I've been using Titanium Backup for years and I was wondering what is the best app out now...

IMO, it's the best app I've used. It seems to do a great job of finding all the parts and removing, or moving them correctly. I wish it had a backup function.

Ever try ES File Explorer's backup function? I have been using Titanium Backup (just to delete apps) and ES File Explorer together for some time. My OCD is kicking in so I guess I'm just going to have to try Link2SD with ES File Explorer and start over on a fresh ZV5 Odexed. Unless you can recommend a better file explorer? Thanks for the info!

I did not know ES had a backup function. I use Root Explorer. Got it free from one of Amazons' app giveaways.

You guys should compare yours pound for pound against ES File Explorer. It blows the other file explorers away IMHO and it is free. I love free! I've tried most of all of them. FX File Explorer (with Root Add-on) from NextApp, Inc. came close, but I went back to ES File Explorer. There are so many things you can do with it!

 

[elusama]

I have ES, however you cant edit mount permissions with it that I've seen.

 

[bg4m3r]

I'm quite satisfied with Root Explorer. Does what I need and does it well without a lot of extravagance.

The best I've tried (personal opinion) is the stock CM File Manager. Which you can get from XDA for any ROM. Let's be honest, they all do pretty much the same thing in different ways, it comes down to interface and what you like more. Exceptions being root vs. not root, and in my experience the JRummy file manager is terrible. It always asks for the "one time" resources download

Anyway to make this look more like Lollipop? I really like the CM12.1 ROM but I miss having both camera working

Has anyone noticed like a tad of a lag in stock. I've done a good amount of decent debloating but I've still noticed that I assume my ram or cache runs out quickly because whenever I return home the whole screen and apps need to reload, same with opening chrome all pages reload same with Facebook and Instagram. I only this phone only has one 1g of ram and I assume its whats crippling. Does anyone else have this issue also?

yea that always happened to me. try changing low memory killer values, it worked for me. heres mine

 

[CrimsonToker]

Root was broken on one of these two for a while, can't remember which one. Is it fixed yet?

 

[kwknott]

Root was borked on the Deodexed rom but it is now fixed.

 

[CrimsonToker]

Thanks Knott! So what other projects ate you working on these days?

 

[kwknott]

Honestly, I haven't had much time the past couple months to really do anything. Been working quite a bit of over time and then on top of that trying to remodel the house. Hopefully here within the next few weeks I'll get some projects finished up and I'll have a little time to start tinkering again.

I'm actually trying to get me a build box set up so I can start helping some of the other devs on their projects.

 

[CrimsonToker]

Remodeling, fun. Well don't run yourself into the ground lol I'm almost at that point with my crappy dead end job.. Than you for the work you have done so far for this community!

Which app are you using for that?

 

[ManBan10]
