Use the latest aapt but more importantly use the com.htc.resources and framework-res from this ROM vvvv.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1484590
The ones in the released ICS 4.0.3 - Sense 3.6 ROMs have been customized and won't work with aapt. aapt/apktools is pretty sensitive to modded frameworks.
I de-compile and re-compile SystemUI with just warnings and no errors. You will get some warnings when you apktools if the files but that is OK.

If you read through the forum for this ROM there are a few people who have already taken out the location icon. I look for it and repost.

I think i know your problem, ill send you a PM
I wouldn't mind see ICS battery icon(no preference as to having percentages or not), and icon in the Sense status bar all in ICS colors is possible. That would be cool.
anyone know what app Joelz used to get that clock or others alike on the picture
Can we get a mod for animated sync icon?

I've downloaded his latest release of Joelz ROM and didn't get that clock on install. What would I have to do to get it? How can i start making my own theme or begin changing things like the status bar using Joelz ROM? Link?

That clock is definitely on the release from last night. He put it up around 2am last night EST. So, if you downloaded anything before that, that would be why you don't have it. As for theme stuff, there are all sorts of guides on XDA. Do a quick search and you'll find them. It isn't easy, trust me. There's a lot of work that goes into making themes.
Yeah I liked that clock too, and may just go back to using the clock more. However, I still would like to see an ICS like battery icon, as the green is starting to get a bit stale.

Recompiling ICS SystemUI.apk

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?

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.

recompile sony ICS apk's with APKTOOL

i tried recompiling the Home.apk, in the same condition i decompiled it, but it gives an error,
i installed
SemcGenericUxpRes.apk and framework-res.apk and it succesfully decompiled.
also: i tried an older version of apktool , 1.4.1 which was succesfull with some samsung phones in other threads but no success with that either
i also tried copying the latest aapt from the sdk to the apktool installation, nothing.
so if anyone has had success recompiling sony ICS apks, then help..

Seems like you have made a mistake while editing a .xml file, as it is unable to compile the file(xml files are compiled to a bit different language).

update your sdk to latest version, then copy aapt.exe from platform-tools to apktool directory, that was the fix i had found on the apktool bugtracker.
edit:you have to install frameworks again after replacing aapt
how about decompiling and recompiling framework-res.apk, settings.apk, systemui.apk, and other semc ics apks bro gandhar ??

a lot of people including me are waiting for the next version of apktool just because of the errors that are met when recompiling ICS apks..
it does not accept some parts of a lot of xml files, so many need to be changed just to recompile the file, many files excluding the actual modifications we need to do..
well i am no expert at this, so i may be wrong, but my experience in trying to recompile leads me to conclude that i should wait for the next version

Like the compiler said, you didn't add lines in strings.xml, and the hex code you added was over, write hex in a way in continuation to the respective part in public.xml

1. You didn't add lines in strings.xml or manifest
2. You also set the hex codes wrong
3. You might have not installed framework files
Thank You,

do you mean this part where i set the codes wrongly?
Add these to the end of string names in public.xml (/res/values/public.xml)
I did copy whatever that was posted above. =\
EDIT: I saw some post saying it only require the android policy jar to work as you don't really have to mod the framework apk file. True or?

The android.policy.jar file that i posted is what i did using your tutorial, is there anything wrong i did in there that make it not work?
After trying your android.policy.jar mod I am getting the lockscreen settings but no lockscreen. And editing framework-res.apk gives bootloop, as you mentioned earlier it needs editing androidmanifest.xml, but afaik editing it changes the signature of the apk.
I am using a lot of mods (including hansip87's) and I want to incorporate this mod too.
And I dont want to flash the rom.
Any help will be appreciated
what about mod for GB

Error log says could not find resources. It means you have not installed framework-res.apk (in case of Samsung Touchwiz phones install twframework also).
Solution :-
Pull framwork-red.apk and for Samsung TW phones pull twframawork-res.apk and put it where you keep files in apktool.
If you are using APK Multitool with GUI, then first button is for installing framework.
If you are using command line apktool, type
Code:
apktool if framework-res.apk
to install framework.
Then decompile and recompile.
Press Thanks if helped

Wait........ Is it a 3rd party app? (I mean not a system app?)

Thanks, but it didn't help. I will keep the tool, ask my girlfriend to look over the log when there is time, but so far, still an error. I have not been able to recompile.
It is a system app. I modified one file to enable calls on my TF300TG. I have included 7zip files of the apk, and of the values folder. The values folder goes inside the res folder of the decompiled apk, before recompiling. If you could recompile for me, I will give you all the cookies!

You did not tell me you had JellyBean. I found it when I took a look at framework-res.apk manifest.
There is some problem with decompiling and recompiling JB Framework. (No problem for other apks)
So I did a bit searching and I found this
monstaX said:
Grab an ICS framework-res apk. Replace manifest resources.arsc and res from the ICS apk with the one from jb apk. Then dexompile with apktool142.jar and then edit. Then recompile with apktoll144.jar. then open the apk that recompiled and take out manifest resources.arsc and res and place back in jb framework sorry if its to confusing. But just a quick write up

I thank you for your assistance. I will take a look at the link when I get home. I know it might be asking a lot, but would it be possible for you to make the required resources.arsc for me? Basically, I only need two variabls in bools.xml changed. I have attached my bools.xml file.
If you are able to, I greatly appreciate the help. Hell, I greatly appreciate the help anyway. This stuff is a little beyond my current knowledge pool though.
is this proble solved? you want recompiled system file like systemui.apk?
