Google Android creates ODEX files to optimize applications before booting. ODEX files contain parts of an application code that is optimized. This speeds up the boot process as it preloads part of an application. It also makes hacking applications difficult as code is extracted before execution.
Android ODEX files have the same filename prefix as their APK file. The data in ODEX files replaces data in the DEX file inside the APK. DEX files contain executable code for Android applications.
ODEX files are optimized DEX files for the Dalvik virtual machine which runs Android application code.
ODEX files come in Android APK packages to save space. You likely cannot access ODEX files manually, just as part of APK packages.
The ODEX file extension contains optimized executable Android application code to increase boot speed. ODEX files reside alongside APK files. They contain code optimized for the specific device to reduce space needed.
140 different file types use the ODEX extension but are often not compatible. Google Android program is usually used to modify or read Google Android Optimized Executable ODEX files developed by Google.
