I am trying to figure out how to deodex stock gingerbread .605. I am already rooted and have past experience flashing zips, roms, etc. I went back to stock because I was having problems with just about every rom I installed. I could not find a tutorial for .605 specifically so I was hoping that someone could help me out.
Thanks guys
The manual de-odexing method detailed in the DX themes section still works. I just did mine using xUltimate v2.3.3. You need to have a grasp of what the linux commands do though so you can handle anything unexpected. On mine, I ran out of room copying the framework jar files back so I deleted the odex files then retried it.
I also found a deodexer zip that works with CWM v2.x but not later versions because the script language being used is amend which was deimplemented after Froyo. I might convert it to edify if enough ppl are interested. google "4.5.605 deodexer" for the link at mydroidworld.com.
edit:
If you get deodexed and are interested in the two other zip files there (one gives the stock 605 rom the CRT off effect and the other does that and also eliminates the dual-unlock screen when you have a lock method going) then ping me for the edify versions. I'm using them on mine currently.
I'm sorry to have to open another thread just for this, but I was waiting for zephyr1988 to update his files for aurora 4.1a. As he didn't do it yet, here it is
I had posted these in the other thread, but the files are now outdated and there was some confusion regarding the kernel inside the zip. These files, fix this, because I updated the kernel and services.jar for Aurora 4.1a.
Please, to understand what this does, read this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1710233
Notes:
- This is only for those with Aurora 4.1 + 4.1a update. For other versions, there will be auto-reboots, especially with the gallery, so, if don't have the latest aurora version, don't install this.
To install, flash both zips in recovery. Boot takes a little longer, but believe it, it's worth it

Yes, I get that too, looks like a problem with xda. Here is an alternate download. Extract the two zip files first

Sorry if this question was already answered.
What are the changes in the boot.img?
dzo already added support to run init.d scripts already in kernel of the versions 4.1+, correct?
Why you need to add it to your zip?
Another question, what does the OOM_Priority_Charger_Aurora_4.1a.zip?
Couldn't flash OOM_Priority_Charger_Aurora_4.1a.zip through recovery, says installation aborted..
In on update 4.1a

It's the same one that's in update 4.1a, I kept it because there was a boot.img in the original script, I don't know if removing it would lead to the script not working...

It's working here, I tried it again just now... what CWM are you using? You can also just extract the services.jar that's inside the zip, and copy it to /system/framework, replace the default and set permissions like the default and reboot.

i will redownload and try again..
EDIT

Priority charger in attached files didn't work but files from Mediafire did.

If I already have the 4.1 or 4.1a installed I already have the boot.img in my phone and It already have the support for init.d. So I think you do not need to add it to your zip.
That is creating problems only.
This is just a comment to improve your work and correct me if I'm wrong. I'll appreciate.

It doesn't create any problem at all, because I didn't modify the 4.1a kernel in any way, it's the same that it's in dzo's 4.1aupdate zip.
On the other hand, removing it could cause problems with the updater script in this flashable zip, that's why I kept it in my flashable zip. You are not forced to install this zip if you don't want, but I can guarantee the boot.img is the same that's in dzo update, there's nothing bad coming from flashing it.

Hello fjsferreira,
Thanks for updating the zip, I was away for a week with no access to a PC.
I have updated the original thread with 4.1a OOM priority charger and a init.d zip that does not mess with the boot.img now that dzo has included it in his ROM, so it should be compatible with newer versions.
I ve read the threads but still dont know what is OOM priority charger or any charger and init.d . Can someone explain it to m?

These are scripts that run at boot time to change memory management so that you always have a good amount of memory available. The package also contains some scripts to fine tune screen sensitivity, sdcard and CPU performance, those require editing the script files to uncomment some lines. Read the instructions on the other thread to fine out how to use this.

Why SuperSu is not included by default on Omni? In my opinion, is better to have supersu built-in on the rom's zip. Thanks for your hard work and thanks for I9100 nightlys. :good:

Getting delta updates was higher on the list than integrating SSU into the firmware.
There are plans for an opensource version of SuperSU but it hasn't happened yet due to lack of time. It hasn't been a particularly high-priority thing since anyone who can flash Omni can flash SuperSU in recovery, and SSU now includes backuptool support in the non-Pro version.

Thanks for fast reply. I have used this backuptool script, but when i flashed, new nightly and gapps, supersu disappeared. It's all right now
PS: delta's updates is awesome. I have used many times on CyanogenMod.
There's now a folder within the OpenDelta one where you can put zips to flash after the update. Tried it this morning with Franco, LTE enabler and SuperSU. Works great with TWRP 2.6.3.3.

Where is that folder?
I found no folder in app. On filesystem I get /data/data/eu.chainfire.opendelta/ - it contains two dirs (cache and shared_prefs) and a dead symlink to the nonexistent dir /data/app-lib/eu.chainfire.opendelta

I don't know about Chainfire's own backuptool script, but with the one I posted elsewhere (named 51-su.sh ) - I only backup the minimum needed for SuperSU to work when installing the app from the Play Store. (e.g. I do not backup the app, since it can be installed from Play - it has a nasty habit of disappearing along with all settings if it's in /system and then is removed from /system, but if it's never in /system to begin with, it'll never uninstall if something gets screwy.)
NOTE:
This post is/was only relevant for users of the original modded stock recovery for YP2. For the newer & better TWRP recovery for YotaPhone 2 installing unsigned packages such as Xposed framework is not an issue.
Please note that the Xposed version below is outdated, Xposed alpha 4 is available. See Xposed for Lollipop thread.
Old post content:
Not exactly a proper development thread, but posting it here anyway because of the relation with the modded recovery, ad the slightly technical angle.
Xposed framework for Lollipop allows you to install modules that tweak/change many aspects of Android. It's pretty powerful as it can hook into existing software and change it's functionality. The version referred to in this post is an alpha version.
Therefore:
Warning: I recommend you don't install this unless you're a nerd. It's not yet stable, and may cause trouble (such as boot-loops).
Also: by the time you read this there may be newer versions, so read the Xposed thread for updates.
Background
The modded recovery image allows to install software signed by either Yota Devices (such as ota update zips) or signed with testkeys, but it does not allow to flash UNsigned zips. Many flashable zips are signed with testkeys (like SuperSU) but rovo89's Xposed flashable zip for LP in the current 20150430 version are unsigned, so we can't flash them as-is.
Flashing it anyway:
There's two ways: the harder and slightly educational way (useful for e.g. when new Xposed versions are released) and the lazy but convenient way.
1) Signing the Xposed framework zip yourself:
You need:
- signapk.jar plus test key and certificate
Get SignApk.jar from somewhere (build it from AOSP source, or download a zip from this thread (I used zipaligner 1.2, linux). This zip contains other stuff, but we need testkey.pk8, testkey.x509.pem and signapk.jar
- Xposed framework zip for LP 5.0 (xposed-sdk21-arm-20150430.zip) from the official thread from here
- java environment (JDK or JRE)
To sign the file put all files in one dir (including xposed-sdk21-arm-20150430.zip) and run:
Code:
java -jar signapk.jar -w testkey.x509.pem testkey.pk8 xposed-sdk21-arm-20150430.zip xposed-sdk21-arm-20150430_signed.zip
You just created xposed-sdk21-arm-20150430_signed.zip that you can flash.
2) Using a pre-Signed zipfile:
I attached a testkey-signed version of rovo89's file xposed-sdk21-arm-20150430.zip to this post for convenience, so you can skip the steps above.
Steps to install the Xposed framework for LP
1) put device in fastboot/download mode and boot the modded recovery image (see recovery thread)
2) choose "apply update from ADB" from recovery menu
Code:
adb sideload <yourpath>/xposed-sdk21-arm-20150430_signed.zip
3) reboot
4) choose allow 'unknown sources' in settings->security
5) copy the file XposedInstaller_3.0-alpha2.apk to your phone (or scan the QR code on the Xposed page to download this file to your phone directly.
6) use a file manager (like ES File Explorer, or the built-in Cabinet) to browse to and open XposedInstaller_3.0-alpha2.apk and install it.
Now you can download Xposed modules through the Xposed Installer app. I tried GravityBox [LP] (make sure you select the right version!) to change the launcher grid to 5x5 instead of 4x4. After a reboot that worked. I'm not saying that using GravityBox is safe, they warn that it may cause trouble with non-standard ROM's (such as ours).
Please not that I can't/won't provide any support for Xposed itself, please see the relevant Xposed threads for that.

Which version of xposed is for yotaphone I see a few different versions on the xposed thread. Link From the op

I used xposed-v68-sdk21-arm.zip just two days ago, and signed it myself according to the instructions.
It seems to play well, at least for two days
I just booted TWRP and sideloaded it, I never flashed the TWRP.
Had a little mess getting the driver to install in windows, when TWRP sideloads, it had a new identity in the device manager and I was unable to make accept the drivers I had. So I made a little manual edit in the .inf file from the yotaphone flashtool package, and then was able to load the driver needed. Google was my friend, but I can paste the change here later if someone want it.
Those who are using xposed do you notice any long freeze on the epd and reboots.

Nope. I am running latest Xposed framework with gravitybox and youtube adaway. No crashes or freezes, but the battery life does fluctuate quite a bit sometimes. But I think that that is because of Lollipop.
No issues with xposed here either. Running alpha4 I believe.
Installed but not active.. That's what i get! Why is thaT?
Thanks!
I signed the last version of xposed using the method in the first post, and flashed (file attached) using TWRP. no issues so far.
no need to say, make sure you backup first!
Bootloop
I have accidentally flashed the xposed-sdk21-arm-20150430_signed.zip...so my phone stuck in bootloop. How can I uninstall it?

SOLVED. Stock rom (4.4.3 HK) flashed with Yota Flasher. After this everything went smoothly.
Oficial Xposed running with no problems, well just one named Lollipop

The same with me, Lollipop because using the EPD is so much better, otherwise I would happily be on KitKat, battery life on Lollipop is awfull, I also have the Xposed installed the official one with no problems, running some Modules to prevent battery from draining as much as possible in this Google Sucking Lollipop...
So I've been getting lots of different questions about how to get this and that on android 7.0 nougat so to make it easier for everyone to find ill create this thread.
1. TWRP
Is twrp available for N? If so where can I find it?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/p9/how-to/twrp-3-0-2-0-n-t3506947
2. ROOT
Oh cool now I have twrp. So how can I root?
Download phh r275 version and flash
Download and install Material phh apk: Release post
Now you should be good to go. If any issues feel free to ask here or in phh official thread.
3. BUSYBOX
User friendly zip flash this and the below steps isn't needed!
Flashable zip (1.25.1) : https://mega.nz/#!zlRm3S4B!9rAtfi0wI8oFu6xjJITgF0dRwV21UPsxvZQZzMo6VXk
This one is a bit tricky. If you run root. But
Download jrummy's busybox on Gplay.
Select installation folder to /system/xbin or if u don't want to touch system folder use /sbin if available. U can replace jrummy''s busybox with stericsson version if you like it better. But you must have installed jrummys version first if you're booted into android. Else stericsson busybox might have issues installing. Or u can use zips which contains busybox Google busybox flashable.
4. VIPER
More user friendly if using this zip the below steps should only need se Linux mode changer!
Flashable zip: https://mega.nz/#!f8wlzIrB!vVCAv-xqWB8lOrcQTgIyFL0WS7MFsE9iFb08E1YKV2Y
Is quite a mess to get working. You need se Linux mode set to permissive. Flash guitarheroes version of v4a (2.5.0.5) once flashed you need to replace the audio effects in /vendor/etc/audio_effects else you'll get I/O driver installation failed. Copy the .so files to /system/lib and /system/lib64 and set correct permission. If you have wrong busybox message. Try different versions of busybox but I use latest from stericsson and it works great. Hope u get it working.
Oh and don't forget to allow sd storage access or you'll get driver I/O error as well. And se Linux changed to permissive use se Linux mode changer for it. It works great with phh!
5. MAGISK
As it seems to be now. Magisk won't work due to loop issues on boot. And mount seems to have losetup fail 1 on mounting a .img while booted.
6. Xposed
Not yet available. Be patient rovo needs time we can wait for him
7. comes soon.
More stuff.
