Dear all, I need help im modifying system.img from Stockrom. I can delete apks (de-bloating) but I do not know how to add new apks!
So far I have done the following steps:
1. Untar AP*.tar.md5
2. Extract with LZ4 system.img.lz4
3. simg2img system.img system-new.raw
4. sudo mount -t ext4 -o loop system-new.raw mnt/
5. delete bloatware apps from system/app and system/priv-app
6. add additional apks to system/app and system/priv-app????
7. umount, img2simg, lz4, tar and flash (e.g. Odin)
I have real issues with step 6, everything I tried so far did not work.
a) add apks to system/app and system/priv-app with user root and 644
b) create directories in system/app and system/priv-app
c) replace apks in system/app and system/priv-app
While the de-bloating works, step 6 is broken! The new apps are not usable. They show up with the generic android "robot icon" and their canonical name (e.g. org.fdroid.fdroid...) and are immediately stopped.
What is the correct approach to add additional apks to an existing stock rom image? Please help.

Someone can deodex the new stock v20q?
is quite perfect stock rom, and if is deodex is perfect for many aspects
I'm getting errors deodexing with xUltimate 2.4.2.
Also, with xUltimate 2.3.3, most files can be deodexed, but the system becomes unplayable before flashing...
Have you got it?? Any news??
Where did you find the 2.4.2 file I can't find it anywhere.

Deodexing stock ROM
This is a little tutorial to deodex stock ROM v20x's that i found here on XDA and that i modified a little to make it work with our OB
IT WORKED FOR ME, HOWEVER I DON'T TAKE ANY RESPONSIBILITY IF YOU MESS UP AND BRICK YOUR DEVICE OR ANYTHING ELSE. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK.
*What you need to have:
-xUltimate v2.3.3 (Thanks and Credits to Xeudoxus for this awesome app)
-Rooted kernel with busybox
-JDK installed on your Windows system
-If adb is not available in your windows PC, in xUltimate folder open "jar" folder. You'll find adb there.
*Extract stock app & framework folders and Deodex:
-Connect your device to computer.
-Start xUltimate (double-click on Main.exe)
-Select option 1. (Pull /system/app)
-Once option is done, select option 2. (Pull /system/framework)
-In the same folder, now you'll see two new folders (origi_app, origi_frame)
-For LGP970, go to origi_app folder and delete apk and odex files of Maps, PhoneSky and VoiceSearch.
-Select option 3 in Main menu (Deodex /system/app)
-Once its done, select option 4 in Main menu (Deodex /system/framework)
-DONE!!
Now you'll see two new folders done_app and done_frame.
*Push deodexed app and framework to device:
-Connect your device to PC in USB debugging mode.
-Copy done_app and done_frame folders to root of sdcard (/sdcard).
-Open Windows command prompt and type the below commands.
adb shell
$su
#stop
#mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mmcblk0p9 /system
#busybox cp /sdcard/done_app/* /system/app/
#busybox cp /sdcard/done_frame/* /system/framework/
#rm /system/app/*.odex
#rm /system/framework/*.odex
#chmod 644 /system/app/*
#chown root.root /system/app/*
#chmod 644 /system/framework/*
#chown root.root /system/framework/*
#mount -o remount,ro /dev/block/mmcblk0p9 /system
#sync
#reboot
//In Recovery, Wipe Cache and Wipe Data/Factory reset.
Reboot.//

My model "Samsung Galaxy Note II GT-N7100
I finally have the scripts ready for download!!!! It includes 3 batch scripts (you will only need to run two), lists of dependencies (you dont need to do anything with them ), and the 7za.exe which is used to put the classes.dex in the apk/jars. There are also 7 apks in a "predeodexed" folder, these 7 apks I had trouble deodexing, but the newest xUltimate version (2.4) seemed to deodex them properly (I had issues with it deodexing framework and some apps).
--After a few days of running a deodexed system I haven't noticed any fc and crashes or major slowdowns, BUT I don't use any of the verizon apps (they were the trouble apps for deodexing too) or the default launcher.
Step 0: Make a safestrap backup of your systemorig!!! (You can get back without a backup but it is a much longer process, its the same process of jumping from one ICS, so you keep your data)
Step 1: Download and extract, duh
Step 2: Pull /system/framework to /system/framework in the folder you extracted the zip to
Step 3: Do the same as above but for /system/app
Step 4: Run the framework.bat and app.bat files
Step 5: Get /output/framework and /output/app to /system, and apks in /predeodexd also need to be pushed/transferred to /system/app
5a: Use adbd insecure to enable adb remount and adb push commands, and push /output/framework & /output/app to /system/framework /system/app
-OR-
5b: Copy the /app and /framework folders to the sdcard and then copy using a root file manager to /system/app and /system/framework
Step 6: Remove the .odex files in both /system/app and /system/framework, either through adb shell (adbd insecure), through terminal or one by one with a file manager :silly:
Step 7: Reboot!! :good:

Does it mean, we could use the blur camera app on CM9?
I prefer it over the standard ICS camera app because it has additional options like audio scenes which are quite useful.

Here are some tools I put together to deopt/deodex a system.img
It's been partially tested and works for me, but needs some more testing
I'll continue working on it to fine tune/clean scripts.
Linux Only For Now!
What does this do exactly?
This de-odexes the app, priv-app and framework folders, adds .dex files and lib folders to the appropriate apks/jars and folders, removes odex files and organizes everything into structured folders ready to flash. This does all the work so you don't have to.
Why would I want to do this?
Doing this helps with customization of apks. You can theme the launcher or even replace the lockscreen photos with your own if you choose
This also shrinks the stock system.img to 700+MB
Warning: contains the command 'sudo' for linux root permissions in unpack/repack scripts. Just an easy workaround for now
Instructions:
extract the zip
chmod 755 -R the extracted folder
Add a stock system.img to the extracted folder
run ./unpack.sh to mount the system.img
copy app, priv-app and framework from the 'fugu' folder to the 'system' folder
run ./oat2dex.sh to deodex the 3 folders
remove the 3 folders from the 'fugu' folder
add the 3 folders from the 'system' folder to the 'fugu' folder
run ./repack.sh to build the system.img

Um I'm familiar with deodex but what's de-opt?

It's de-optimization, which is a method to undo the oat optimized dex. It's similar to deodexing.
awesome thanks, ill test this out tomorrow.
thanks for sharing,

Deodex your own rom by yourself
pull from system via ADB (usb debugging enabled) -> app, framework and priv-app, put them in a folder named system.
(can also extracted from flashfile, system.img with other tools like ext4_unpacker.exe)
deodexing -> app, framework and priv-app with SVAdeodexer (build.prop needed in systemfolder)
if deodexing finished then copy the three folders on your internal or external storage on device.
now start in to twrp recovery (mount system first), delete in the system folder on phone -> app, framework and priv-app
copy the deodex folder (app, framework and priv-app) to system and set chmod 755.
finger crossed, first time boot after replacing the folders takes several minutes

thanks to svadev
