That is why you always back up the original!!! and then there will be no harm, this will not brick your phone, lets say you do it wrong the worst it can happen is that when you turn your phone off, It will restart from the bootanimation, to fix it, you replace it with your original PowerOff.apk.
 
wait do i need to save the original poweroff.apk or if anything goes wrong can i just restore from before and itll fix itself?

and do i flash this zip? because if i extract the only thing there is PowerOff.rar

Restore will fix it. You need to extract the .rar file


Free RAR Extract Frog Its free and works good. Simple to use.
 
can someone post the poweroff.odex file im on broken out and im trying to put the power off back on my device but it doesn't seem to work without the odex file
 
Broken out is deodex'd there is no odex. Look in the build prop for user.feature.lgpoweroff=false and change that false to true and reboot. Then it should work
 
Kinda new to this do I need to unzip and get the PowerOff.rar file and then put it on SD Card then move it into /system/app/ ?

Okay I have Rom Toolbox Pro open/ go to Root Browser/system/app/put it in here? move it from sd card? correct?

Very simple my friend you can unzipe the PowerOff.rar in your computer it contains PowerOff.apk, then transfer the PowerOff.apk to SD or internal memory it doesn't matter where, and yes!!!! move it into /system/app "REMENBER DO NOT TOUCH THE PowerOff.odex" and you have to remove the battery for the changes to take effect.

When you unzip this all you see is a .rar >PowerOff.rar? change it to apk?
