That method should *theoretically* work on all Android roms/phones, but some system apps only work with certain roms. For example, most Touchwiz apps cannot be installed on AOSP or CM based roms. If an app is not compatible, it will force close continually until you remove it from /system/app
Can we decompile 3rd party apps like MX Player & others?
I cant decompile MX player using apktool!

make sure you have loaded the correct framework into apktool with the if command
if framework-res.apk
with most 3rd apps you are likely to need jb or kitkat framework so get it from cm10/11

Thanx it worked!
Hello, I'm an owner of XPERIA Z1, using the latest Customized Lollipop firmware (.242), struggling very much to deodex his device. I've tried 2 different methods, which both lead to problems:
1.) Using a flashable zip provided by venkat kamesh, in this thread: link. After flashing, I don't face any prominent problems, like FCs on system apps e.t.c. But whenever I'm trying to launch any app requiring OpenGL ES 2 , I get an error message/toast notification, about that, saying that my device is incompatible. And Google Play refuses to even show these apps in the search results, listing them as incompatible.
2.) Modifying the flashable zip to use my own /app, /priv-app, /framework, and even /vendor/apps fully deodexed folders, leading to a bootloop, and refusing to show more than 2 seconds of the bootanimation before rebooting. I thought that some package may be incompatible with my firmware, but this theory can't be proved yet.
*I've tried fixing permisions using both terminaland adb using this method: link. No result either.
Is there any other solution? Thank you!

Are you deodexing every odexed file? I normally only deodex those files whose smali I'm going to mod. There's not much point deodexing anything else..

Well yes, I just suppose that a fully odexed or deodexed system is more stable than a mix of those two.
Is there any red-line that I must not pass? Like a paricular .apk or .jar file, for example. Also on KitKat, we had to have fully deodexed system for some mods to work (like the 4K Mod by Chocolatetrain). This restriction doesn't exist on Lollipop, which utilises ARM?

No. You can, in theory, deodex as many or as few APK and JAR files as you like.
The whole point of deodexing is to make it easy to change smali files. It doesn't affect stability or performance, it's solely for modding. I normally deodex SystemUI.apk, framework.jar and android.policy.jar then leave the rest of the odexed files alone.
(Well, technically a deodexed ROM takes longer to boot if the Dalvik cache has been wiped but that's about it.)
The only reason I ask is that, if you only need to deodex a few files, there are various tools available for deodexing individual files instead of whole ROM's. I could mention that Tickle My Android can do it but that'd be a bit cheeky.
Oh, looking at that 4K mod you mentioned, it doesn't actually need the whole ROM to be deodexed. But there are so many files that are being replaced that do need to be deodexed that it's probably just simpler to say the entire ROM needs to be.

OK, thank you for the answer, I will try then deodexing just the essentials: SystemUI.apk, framework.jar, framework-res.apk and SemcGenericUxpRes.apk
Final question, as I see in your program's thread, Lollipop editing/deodexing is not supported yet, so do you recommend an automate tool for the deodexing process (like JoelDroidLollipopBatchDeodexe or any other), or the manual method?

TMA does support deodexing of Lollipop APK files...I just can't guarantee that it'll be able to deodex everything. Guess I need to reword the OP....lol

Hm... I will try that too if my (already) deodexed apks won't work, thank you.
Please ask in the Q&A section for your device.

I have the Renovate Ice Rom v5.1 on the S8 (rooted) and when I change the background colour of notifications to black and text colour to white, The text colour remains dark on the Samsung Music notification. Sure I could use the Google play music app which works colour wise but it responds slowly to the bixby button which I have set to media play/pause, which is not the case for the Samsung music app. Anyone else having this problem? Any solutions?
It is hardcoded on music app.
You need to use modified app apk

This is the link I shared you before, but that music apk is now outdated, if the op can edit apk there is instructions also to what codes you need to change ? (wait isn't custom roms already has feature to color Samsung music app specifically?)

Idk, there are a couple of factors that may affect it, maybe wrong decompiling signatures or the modded music app got rejected by the rom. Try to use apktool via PC not just phones apk editor
Hello people ^^
I'm trying to get samsung's music player app and some other samsung apps on my mi a1 because honestly i hate all other players.
I tried several methods where I put the apps in my system/priv-apps and change permissions and reboot,
It shows up perfectly in app drawer but forces close instantly.
I reviewd the Log and it said "Samsung SDK not found".
Is there a way to bypass this? Preferably without flashing any custom roms.
And if not will a custom samsung based rom play the app?
Or can I modify the apk and remove the samsung SDK requirement then recompile it maybe?
Thanks in advance ^^
