What is Deodexing?
Deodexing is basically repackaging of android APKs in such a way, that all pieces of an application package are put together back in one place, allowing for easy modification such as theming. Since no pieces of code are coming from any external location, custom ROMs or APKs are always deodexed to ensure integrity.
