Hey guys, I'm trying to mess around with the SystemUI from DAGr8's latest ics rom. I can't get it to recompile with apktool. Are there any other ways to edit XML and recompile?
sent from my iPhone killers killer, Samsung Galaxy Note.
I was trying to decompile/compile the ICS framework-res.apk to try to get CRT off animation working and encountered this problem too. I don't know how the Devs do it so easily.
y don't u just rename to .zip and unpack then when u r done repack and then rename to .apk, the apk is that same as a zip file. or are u just trying to edit the xml files?

I am trying to edit the xml files.
Here is the output generated by apktool when I try and recompile:

Open up the apk with 7 zip and remove the classes.dex before decompiling and then put it back in after recompiling. See if that helps. Did you change any of the files in the folders that are throwing errors?

Decompile with apktool 1.4.2 and recompile with 1.4.3. But the CRT animation is not an easy framework change like GB. It is further ingrained in the system and will require modifying additional files.

So I'm in the process of porting a theme (for IE20) and I'm making good progress, however I can't seem to get the SystemUI.apk to compile correctly even without changing anything. (using APK manager 5.0.2)
I actually updated it from v5 to see if it would help but I keep getting the same error
Here's the log:

From reading the log I would say I just have to decompile with dependencies (the twframework-res.apk if I'm not mistaken?) but that doesn't seem to work.
And if it makes a difference, when I install the frameworks they get installed to C:\Users\Jon\apktool\framework no matter what, whether I install them via apk manager or cmd, then again I might just be using the wrong command.
Basically the product .apk is 12.4 KBs when it should be around 300 KBs.
Any help is appreciated!
Decompile systemUI.apk using framework-res.apk as a dependency. Not twframework.
good day.

That came up with the same error, log is exactly the same so I won't bother posting it.
EDIT:
When I try to use framework-res.apk as a dependency I get the error: "Sorry thats not the dependee apk, try again"
However if I use twframework it decompiles but I get the error when I compile it.
So your steps are.
1.add systemUI.apk to place here to be modded folder.
2.option 10 in the apk mgr script
3when prompted (simply drag the framework-res.apk from you framework folder in to the apk mgr script window)
4.enter
5.make edits to apk
6.option 11 to compile.
7.is this a system apk (Y)
8.Would you like to copy over any bla bla bla to reduce errors? (Y)
9.go to keep folder and delete resources.arc if you made any xml edits
10.go to drawable hdpi in keep folder and delete any images that you edited.
11. enter in script to continue/finish compiling.
good day.

ok just saw your edited post. TBH I've used all those steps above to theme aosp. My only theming of touch wiz I did was eclair/froyo which did not include systemUI so it make sense with needing twframe.
good day.

That's exactly what I would do if I didn't get errors first.
The first error is when I drag over framework-res.apk "Sorry thats not the dependee apk, try again"
Now if i drag in the twframework-res.apk I can get to #6 in your guide and I get the error "An Error Occured, Please Check The Log"
Press any key to continue . . .
Then I proceed to steps #7, 8, 9,10,11.
Now I have an apk that is 269 KBs, compared to the stock SystemUI.apk which is 308 KBs.
One minute, going to push this to my phone and see what happens.
Okay that seems to have given me a fully intact SystemUI.apk.
I guess I was just getting paranoid with the smaller size and the error.
So instead of saying no to
Code:
8.Would you like to copy over any bla bla bla to reduce errors? (Y)
like I did with the other .apk files I said yes and that's what made it work.
Thank you!
Okay so that didn't work after all. Apparently that works fine if I don't change anything, but once I did my xml edits I had problems.
It seems the files I delete in the keep folder don't get compiled in resulting SystemUI.apk. This also explains why the file size is smaller.
Everything leads back to the error in the log but...I don't know what to do next...Here's a log following chopper's steps precisely aside from using twframework-res.apk instead of framework-res.apk.

Hi, I want modify the number of deskop on my Ray ...
In the Home.apk, this line in the R$integer.smali file :
".field public static final number_of_desktop_panes:I = 0x7f09000a"
But I don't understand this integer format ? and How can I modify this ?? (and it's possible ?)
Or another way to modify the number of desktop ??
Thanks for your dev answers !
u have to unpack Home.apk via APK tool, then find in res/values/integers.xml.
there u will see Number of desktop panes=5 , Modify to whichever number u like...
Then repack, re-sign, zipalign apk..

It clearly states the error that when u open styles.xml there is something that u added or modified in 4th line(styles.xml:4: ) that has no resources added in public.xml and strings.xml..
Dont add new things or dont rename anything in xmls coz then u have to change it in public.xml and strings.xml and if its linked to more xmls..
For newbies, u should only change values like numbers in dimens.xml and integers.xml.. dont rename files..

sorry doctor, but i dont think so. i really just decompiled Home.apk (installing framework before ofcourse) and directly recompiled it again without even open Home folder to see integer.xml and friends.
i've tried in myfriend's pc (also windows) and the screen also told me the same error. but when i tried to modify another app, it just finished like a charm.

I don't do a CWM update.zip but you can replace in /system/app your home.apk with my home.apk via es explorer (right rw-r-r)
Empty all your deskop before replace... and you must use this mod : http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1534903 (ICS final)

Great work... I have one simple request. There is litlle bug wit this mod because we can't add , for example photo/gallery widget because it is active on 4th desktop... 4th and 5th desktop are now hidden and you can swipe to them as they are active but hidden. Just suggestion to completeley remove them if it is possible of course
Hi there,
I have a major gripe with the S III, the menu and back keys being far to easy to knock, so I am trying to switch my CM9 Nightly to use Soft Keys.
I have managed to find and follow some information about decompling the framework-res.apk and editing the boolean.xml file to enable the soft keys. see http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1364757 but when i go to recompile it get this:

Does anyone know either how to fix this compile issue or enable the soft keys another way?
Thanks in advance
this actually took me several hours to figure out, but since you were so kind to post the guide to something I have wanted for a while I took the challenge.
You need to download the three files from step 1 in this post and copy them to a folder on your harddrive: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1427959
Next, rename apktool1.4.2.31e6dc5.jar to apktool.jar
Then copy your framework-res.apk to the same place as the three other files.
Then open up a command prompt and type apktool if framework-res.apk.
Then decompile using apktool d framework-res.apk.
Now, do your edits inside the framework-res folder.
Then download apktool1.4.3.tar.bz2 from the same post (under rebuild). Extract it and replace the apktool.jar you copied earlier.
Now in the command prompt type apktool b framework-res.
Now go to framework-res\dist and rename the framework-res.apk to framework-res1.apk-zip. Then copy your old framework-res.apk to the same folder and add .zip as the file extension.
Now open up both (i'm using winrar) and delete res and resources.arc. Then extrack res and resources from your newly compiled framework-res1.apk.zip to th e old one.
Now, reboot to recovery and push the framework-res.apk to /system/framework-res.apk. Then chown it using chmod 0:0 framework-res.apk and set permissions chmod 644 framework-res.apk.
Hope you understood at least a bit of what I wrote I'm assuming you know how to use adb etc.
@op you could also upload your framework-res.apk file here and I could do the compiling for you
Thank you soo much! I didn't need to chown or chmod the file, just pushed it live and rebooted. Deleted the mapping for my touch buttons also. Only funny thing I had was all my accounts were removed?
Thanks again!

hi,
I decompiled systemui.apk without any problem, edited the tw_status_bar.xml (for center clock) and compiled the file and the no translation files found problem appeared.
The compiled apk has about 500kb less than the original one. After signing the file, the new compiled file has 100kb more.. so it is 1400 (new) to 1800kb (original)..
Flashing the new file brought a blank black screen.
So I took the new compiled tw_status_bar.xml and replaced it with the one in the old original systemui.apk. Maybe this works fine. But: No, it did not. Also blank screen..
I have installed the framework-res.apk and the tw-framework-res.apk.
Could someone help me please?
We need this for a theme.
Best Regards
You must have done something wrong when compiling
What tool u are using
And what steps u did?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
I used apktool.
-> java -jar apktool.jar if framework-res.apk (and tw-framework)
-> java -jar apktool.jar d systemui.apk
-> edit
-> java -jar apktool.jar b SystemUI
Did it with the several apktool.jar files. (151, akptool-for-3.2, ... lot of files)
My SystemUI.apk was befor decompiling 1,92MB after 1,79MB. I work with wanam ics apk manager and everything works fine. I dont sing apk.
No need to sign system apks if you did so.
Try taking META-INF folder and AndroidManifest.xml from old (the working one) apk, and place it in your modified apk (use winrar or something, dont decompile).
Thank you guys,
we will give it a try now and hope that it does its job fine.
I use wanam now
Some ROMs have settings for that. There you can set the clock to center. Maybe I should look how they did this.. So we can give to the users the posibillity to change the clocks position.. Like PA did.. Or is this too much work? Deodex and editing the systemui.apk and compile it? Or are there any other files to edit for this? Maybe someone knows this?

I forgot something ? I'm lost...
What is the exact and complete procedure ?
Can you help me please ?
Hi,
I got help from user here.
I give you his tips now
You decompiled the sysui without any error, right? Then you edited your tw_status_bar xml and compiled all with the error apeared, as you wrote.
If you have luck, your tw_statusbar is correctly compiled now. Ignore the error.
So you have to transfer the compiled statusbar xml and the resources file to the ORIGINAL systemui.apk.
I dont have this brut error anymore but i hope this will help you.
We got the clock centered with this method.
I wish you a good result
Best regards
PS: please install also tw_framework-res with apktool like you did with framework-res.apk.. This could solve your problem.
Gesendet von meinem Galaxy Nexus mit Tapatalk 2
Thank you for the speed
I did not do twframework-res.apk, I try.
The result with the above error is only classes.dex, nothing else ...
EDIT : always the same error with framework-res.apk + twframework-res.apk
And the same result (classes.dex)
Then delete the classes.dex and try again? I read anywhere that this could work.
Gesendet von meinem Galaxy Nexus mit Tapatalk 2
Hi,
there is not in the file "classes.dex" in the file "SystemUI" Original
Up
Please try please help me, I would just center the clock in the status bar of the Rom ThaiDai LSC
AW: Problems with de/compiling sysui apk - center clock wanted
Download apktool 1.50 and install the framework-res.apk and the tw-framework-res.apk with it (using java -jar apktool.jar if framework-res.apk).
After doing this you are able now to decompile the framework apk and or the systemui.apk. I believe sysui was the file.
Then you can edit the tw_status_bar.xml. Search a correct layout (other centerclock projects) and copy / paste the lines you need.
So I did it.. Compiled the new files with apktool again and copied the new files from build directory into the old apk (the systemui.apk from phone).
Reboot and be happy..
