Select yes for system app, then no to copy over unmodded and see if it builds the resources file, if it does copy that from the keep folder and see if it's worked.

Any progress?

Just decompile apk, replace the string <style name="Layout.ButtonContainer" for <style name="Layout.ButtonContainer" parent="@android:style/Theme.Wallpaper.NoTitleBar"> at \res\values\styles.xml and compile...

One of the problems is that there are spaces in your path. Move the tool to the root of the c drive. Not I. Documents and settings as it is now. Also rename the apk man folder and remove that space as well. Having no spaces is in the APk manager FAQ. I would also look at apk multitool as it is more updated.
I build/compiled it without error.... Thanks zelendel

It seems that it cant execute the aapt file. Might need to update it.
How to update aapt?
I just downloaded the newest apktools.jar and get this error. Shouldn't be the aapt-file the newest, too?
Edit: Problem solved. Need to download the ADK again and download the platform-tools manually. Than place the aapt file to the bin-folder of apktools and you'll have it.

Please help!! Able to decompile ICS APK yet unable to Compile it back again!

Before everything else, don't even try to say to me that I need to research, because I searched and searched I even filled up my computer with a bunch of apktools and aapt and various decompilers, both Command line and with GUI, it's freaking me out! Please help.!!.

I'm using the same tool I've used before to decompile adn recompile and all I've done is change ONE colour value in the values/color.xml
Is there any way to just compile that xml to I can use it with VRT?
What I do when some nasty error pops up while re-compiling.
Open the apk in winRAR, go to folder where you have modified a perticular file (ex: your file), paste it there. Winrar will do everything and no need to sign also.
Well there is no guarantee That this method should work 'always'.

I need to use the XML file in a theme, though. So, does it not need to be compiled first?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Yea, just realised the method I gave doesn't work with xml's.
EDIT: Which tool are you using?? Apktool??
I suggests you use apkmanager. . It'll generate a readable log in the form of an text file.
OK.. never mind. You fixed it yourself.

The ICS apktool here seems to work.
Rather odd. But it's building now. Hopefully this is it.
DELETED
Ok
I got the file to compile and build.
Now I can't find the values/color.xml file. Is it actually resources.arsc?

Try to decompile and recompile right after, without change anything.
