my rom is stock odex i used universal deodexer and deodexed my.system/app and system/framework folders in my pc . now my question.how can i install that app and framework folders to my phone ??(i tried replace with root explorer but it does not .(how can i make thats to a flashable zip?
but
my problem is not that . i can make a flashable zip . its working fine but after i flashed old .odex files doesnt delete. how can i add it to meta inf for when flashing delete app and replace new app and same for framework
You just need to put in a simple delete line into the update script
for example
Code:
delete("/system/app/Vending.apk");
will delete the Vending.apk from the folder system/app
remember if you are manually pushing files with a root browser you need root permissions and you need to set the correct file permissions - for most apps in the app folder it will be rw-r-r
thnx
thanx i learned if i want to delete folde i will use delete_recursive
help
look .
delete(system app systemui.odex
this is working succesfully but after i flashed my zip system ui is lost . it doesnt show . i looked system app its deodexed permissions is rw--r-r its true but doesnt show . what's can i do ?

most likely if the status bar just doesn't show but does not display a force closed message its because the SystemUI.apk is not correctly signed
as long as the file name is correct and it is correctly compiled with no errors the only thing left is the signing
You can sign an apk easily with zipsigner (playstore)
just copy the apk to any folder on your sd card
start zip signer
select your apk as the input
select the name you want to call it for the output (make it different from the input - you can change the name later)
select platform key as the key you wish to sign (this is for system apps for user apps use a test key)
sign the apk
once done the apk will be outputted as a zip file
change the name of this zip to the name of your apk and don't forget to change the .zip extension back to .apk
put in a flashable and flash in cwm with system mounted
you can check any errors with the SystemUI.apk by doing a logcat via adb as the phone is starting up
By searching the logcat for SystemUI you will be able to see any errors in it and why its not starting - eg Signature mismatch skipping loading
Okay so I just tried to install xposed on my Xperia Z and it was a success. All you need to do is be rooted. For that, go to this thread, http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z/development/super-su-xperia-device-lollipop-easy-t3119006. The procedure mentioned here worked like a charm for me.
Once you are rooted, go to this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3034811. Download the .zip file and the .apk file. Install the .apk file like any other normal .apk file. Unzip the .zip file using any file explorer (I used root explorer). After you've unzipped the files, all you have to do is move and replace them in the system folders and assign correct permissions.
It's not working for me, the installer keeps saying Xposed isn't currently active
I got boot looped with this solution...bummer!

Would it be possible to explain the file copying process in more detail. My Xperia Z crashed whilst copying and overwriting the files into the LIB and now is in a boot loop. Copying the appropriate files to BIN and FRAMEWORK worked fine.

Done! Its working great! In order to work need to set the correct permissions in relevant files.

Did you copy the FRAMEWORK, BIN and LIB files over. My Xperia rebooted whilst copying the LIB files over and the went into bootloop.
Busy re-installing lollipop as we speak.
I have installed the files separately (one by one) in the relevant system's paths

I reinstalled the 5.0.2 firmware. Then did the KingRoot and replaced with SuperSU. The I tried to install Xposed followin the above steps and copied file by file like you did, and if I copy the 3rd file in LIB over, the phone reboots and goes into bootloop.

Same, although it rebooted just fine. I then copied the files again, no reboot but also no Xposed.

I'm in a bootloop again, so off to re-install lollipop...again. Becoming quite a pro at installing and rooting it now This time around, I had a clean install of 5.0.2 without any updates from Play Store. Also did a KingRoot and the replaced it with Super SU before trying to install Xposed. Not sure how @alexfra got it installed...lucky bum!
Okay do the following, copy the LIB files in the root of the system folder and assign the correct permissions. After you've done that, cut and paste the LIB files in to the LIB folder. That will work for sure. Check images for further assistance. Also check image of Gravity Box attached. Everything running great. Hope it works for you too.

Succeeded with my Xperia Z on official Lollipop ! Thanks !
To all who have troubles : take good care to the PERMISSIONS !!! If you don't change permissiosn IT WON'T WORK !
For LIB folder files use the method described before :
- extract to /system
- change permission to rw-r--r-- (or 0644 in octal)
- move files to /system/lib
For bin folder files permission are rwxr-xr-x (or 0755 in octal) and for framework folder it's rw-r--r-- (or 0644 in octal)
If you don't do EXACTLY this, Xposed won't work !

I did this on my third try over the weekend. Copied the LIB files into system, changed the permissions and the moved the files one by one. Reboot and bootloop occured when moving libart.so.
1) What file manager did you use? I used ES File in root explorer mode.
2) Did you move file by file, or move the files all at once or per folder?
3) Do you remember any specific order when moving the files? I just went alphabetically through the folders.
4) Must the .props file also be copied that is in the zip?
5) Did you do a clean install to Lollipop, or was it an upgrade from KK?
Any help would be appreciated

Thanks for your help guys! I figured out what the problem was for me. There were some Xposed files in my lib folder already, I assume from my installation on KitKat (I did not do a clean upgrade). So I removed those, rebooted and presto! Good to have Xposed again

Do you know what the files were so I can check?
Should I not install the Xposed installer APK until I have copied the zipped files in?

Go to /system/lib and search for all the files that are also in the lib folder in the zip and remove them. I already had the Xposed installer installed when I did it, in fact I used it to reboot the system.
I have done,,thanks for guide sir,,

Can anybody comment on which file manager they used to do the copying and setting of permissions and successfully install Xposed? I see the OP used Root Explorer. I personally use ES File Explorer with root mode enabled, but I am thinking that maybe the issue I keep having when copying the files is due to ES File Explorer and maybe I should try Root Explorer.

U need a root explorer app and of course root! Also
The steps are little bit tricky...
Step 1
Make a copy of your EFS folder on your sdcard using root explorer and then backup to your computer [ to have another copy if you have to format the sd card sometime ]
Step 2
Delete the EFS folder (Make sure you have the BACKUP in a safe place as mentioned in STEP 1) from the root of your phone using root explorer.
Step 3
Do a Factory Reset. After that, navigate to the root directory of your phone.
Step 4
Go to EFS folder using root explorer; delete “nv_data.bin” and the “nv_data.bin.md5” files.
Step 5
Go to your backed up EFS folder on your sd card, copy the “IMEI” folder to the EFS folder at the root of your phone, then again go to the backed up EFS folder in your sd card and copy the ” .nv_data ” file to your EFS folder at the root of your phone using root explorer.
NOTE: the dot in first of nv_data is not a mistake, copy the “.nv_data” file.
Step 6
Make another copy of the “.nv_data” file in EFS folder in your phone, so you would have 2 copies of “.nv_data” in EFS folder.
Step 7
Rename one of “.nv_data” files to “nv_data.bin” and another one to “nv_data.bin.bak”
Step 8
Open Command Prompt in your Windows PC (Terminal for all you Linux users) at the ADB tool path, or run Terminal at your phone enter these commands:
adb shell (use this command if you use ADB, if you’re using terminal, skip it )
su ( When the option comes up allow the superuser to access the file system by clicking “grant” on the phone screen )
chown 1001:radio /efs/nv_data.bin
Step 9
Reset your phone…. after that you have your original IMEI. you can check your IMEI by dialling *#06#.
You have successfully recovered
It seems to me the nv_data files are not present in the efs folder.
I was just going through steps but I didn't find these files.
I have backed up the files before flashing the phone using the twrp & Samsung tool box. But in both of the backups there is no nv_data files available. N currently in efs folder there is no no_data file.
the dot in front of .nv_data means they are hidden. you probably won't see them
