You can move both the APK and it's associated ODEX file to the SD card. If you do so, you don't need to rename them. Just create an apps folder on the SD card and stick everything in there for safe keeping.

n00d here. Is there anyway we can move the .apk files onto the sd files while mounted to the computer?

It seems that doing all this through super manager takes forever to copy and past files in folders.

thanks

if you have android sdk installed.

Open command prompt. Navigate to your android-sdk-windows/tools(cd C:\\android-sdk-windows\tools) folder and hit adb shell.

hit su. On your device you should see a screen asking for superuser pemissions. Hit allow.

You have 2 options.

1) you can manually move each file over to the sdcard with a command

mv /system/app/***.apk /sdcard/backupapps/***.apk

for each file you want to move over.

2) you can write a script to streamline the process of moving the apps.
