Getting the Beatz theme without apktool
This is a Guide to this thread : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1543351
Please read it incase you have'nt.
GUIDE
Software's required
Just 7 zip
Steps:
Create a working Directory
For a working directory just create an empty folder.
You will be using this folder to modify the apk and replace them.
Take the rom's zip file
Open it with 7 zip
PART 1(Theming the music PLAYER)
Open the app folder inside the system folder.
Locate the music.apk file
Drag and drop it to the working directory.
Now open the music.apk file with 7zip.
Find the folder drawable-mdpi.
now locate the following 4 files inside the drawable-mdpi folder.
1) stat_notify_musicplayer.png(The HeadSet Icon on the status bar)
2)albumart_mp_unknown.png(The album art)
3)albumart_mp_unknown_list.png
4)music_app.png(The app icon)
Replace these files with the files attached
If you find the drawable-land-mdpi folder, rename the attached albumart_mp_unknown_land.png file to albumart_mp_unknown.png and then replace the renamed file with the existing one inside the Music.apk's drawable-land-mdpi.
Now delete the original music.apk from the ROM and replace it with the one we modified from the working directory.
Note: This way can be used to Theme any Apk file without using apktool.
Just make sure your replacing file is of the same resolution.
You can change resolution with the Microsoft Office Picture Manager
PART 2(Replacing the BOOT animation)
Locate the media folder in the system directory
Now locate the bootanimation.zip file
Delete that and replace with the one attached.
PART 3(Changing the DEFAULT Wallpaper)
Locate the framework folder in the system directory
Now locate the framework-res.apk file inside the framework folder .
Move the framework-res.apk file to a working directory
Now open the framework-res.apk file with 7 zip.
Locate the drawable-nodpi folder.
You should be able to locate the default_wallpaper.jpg file inside it.
Replace that with the one attached.
Now replace the modified framework-res.apk file in the ROM.
PART 4(Adding the BEATS Audio)
NOTE: Can also be achieved by flashing the zip file.
Replace all the files present in the beats_aceport.zip in the ROM.
Do this by properly replacing the corresponding files in the folders with the same folders in the ROM.
For example, if you find bin folder inside the system folder, replace the files inside the bin folder of beats_aceport.zip with the ROM's.

That's only when you decode and build without signing.[Pretending that you are talking about this]
This is pure replacing the existing files.

Here's a little boot animation I threw together from the Movie Alien's Teaser Trailer.
I installed using absolute system root tools.
using root explorer rename attached alien.zip to bootanimation.zip and move it to /system/media folder.
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=4J7JKJV1
Note quite sure how to make a flashable .zip, so if anyone has any info on how to do that, I would appreciate it.
Here ya go:

No package manager. You just have to zip/unzip correctly including update binary and script. If you unzip the one I uploaded you will see the folder structure. If you open the update script with notepad, you will see how that works.
The CWM zips are different for Froyo and Gingerbread, and that is why I tend to name them with 2.3.4 in there.
It's really straight forward. You can pretty much figure them out just by unzipping and analyzing one. I included the audio folder in this zip even though there is no audio, but if you wanted to add audio you would modify desc.txt appropriately, and drop the audio file into system/media/audio/notifications before zipping again.
If you download a couple of animations from here -----> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15529644&postcount=1, you can unzip them and examine the structure. They are almost identical.

The instructions in the post indicated here for update scripts will not work on Gingerbread, (2.3.4/4.5.91). This works with Froyo.
Also, the audio location changed from /system/media to /system/media/audio/notifications with Gingerbread.
wow i flashed this its cool can i make just one request that you take a look at the alienv3 and can u make the text in this animation like a neon green color it will go perfict with that rom and theme thank you??!!

Any of you still have this file for re-up? Thanks.
I saw lots of theme which has this in their title. but I can't find any guide or tutorial about this. So, what is this? how could I use it? has it any benefit over usual "decompile/theme/recompile/replace"ing an apk?Is there any script to implement it like apktool?
Its the universal theme flasher created by Villain ROM.
As for all your other questions I'm not sure.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA
thanks,
correct me if I'm worng pls.
Universal theme flasher, is kind of template. and I should extract compiled PNGs and xmls from apk file and paste theme into that. and for editing theme, I need to paste and replace those files into the apk file and then decompile that apk.
then what should I do if I changed something in "values" folder? cause it just appears in decompiled apps and It can't be seen in a compiled app.

I think after compiling the apk, you should copy the "classes" and the other file *-) I can remember its name, and add them there.
Am not sure *-) I had this question too but I thought abt trying it first and if it doesnt work I wld ask. I have no time to try I have exams

classes.dex is for the smali that has been edited if there was any.
I assume that if the xmls were edited and they point to new PNG images/objects then the resources has been changed. I would say that in this case you would need to have an updated resources file for these adjustments? This could be pulled from your newly compiled .apk that you want to base your flashable theme off?
I am unsure if resources needs to be updated though for certain? I have flashed in the past new xmls and they worked fine, however these were not referencing any new sources or images...so my thoughts are that these mods I made didn't require this additional file?? I could be wrong. I really should read the thread about it here on XDA. I did a long time ago, but have come a long way since then.
I diverse. Try using it without new resources file and see what happens?
You may also like to looking into Morphing as well (very similar concept).

Just pull the 1 zip or 2 zips from the rom, & explore for you're self, I think its the system ui but could be wrong, I'm not near my computer at the moment to check so I can't say exactly which one it is? If you're gonna mod the battery icons you're gonna look inside anyway & I takes like 10secs to extract & search the apk? If you don't wanna do that, there are various apps in the playstore you can download for free to look at the framework pics from inside the apks without opening them! Hope this helps.... press thanks if it did

As Maarten already pointed out SystemUI.apk and framework-res.apk. And if you want to use them in apktool you'll also need com.htc.resources.apk.
Just out of curiosity: are you going to use UOT or apktool? Been trying to change status bar clock colour on half-sense and fulmix (see my post in his thread) with apktool but haven't succeeded yet.
What are your plans on theming?
Just pull the zips & open using winrar? Thts what I've been doing for around 4yrs now

Make a SystemUI.apk without classes.dex and put that in you ROM and release to all users to test. If it works, I will resign from making ROMs.

SystemUI must have classes.dex; there is where all the instructions (the smali files) come from for the apk to work. Like what to run for the EQS and many more.
As mentioned on the link given above
Code:
b) If you are using apkmanager, you can just export classes.dex, then delete classes inside the apk. Then decompile, edit, compile and add classes.dex back when ready.

You can use ninjamorph for changing status bar background image
But it will only work if the status_bar.xml has a @drawable value for status bar background
If it doesn't and has a hexadecimal value it will not work as it's not pointing to a picture that can be changed
You will need to decompile the SystemUI.apk and change the value to @drawable/name of image and then place the image in the drawable-ldpi folder
You can change any other status bar image but it's a slow way of doing it as you can only change one image at a time (you can change as many as you like before you confirm change & apply I mean you cant multi select)
It's easier to unzip the apk & replace files
At op - to avoid confusion of warze instead of posting link to Dropbox post the link to download from the playstore - will also mean people will be downloading latest version
This is playstore link

You need a pc with the following installed

You can then decompile systemui.apk & edit xml files in notepad
Unfortunately there is no way of editing xml files on phone
(there are apps to edit xml files on phone but they don't work with android compressed xml files within apk)

Depends what you tried to change
For example of if you tried to change the status bar background image and there's not an entry in status_bar.xml for a @drawable png image it would be impossible to change using ninjamorph as there is no pointer to an image in systemui.apk
And of course you have to finish the project and apply changes without zip aligning
It does work if used correctly and for the right use
You need a pc with the following installed
Android drivers

So please stop arguing about which bad or good app... As all apps are made by some efforts of developer, so we should respect that effort instead of argueing about which is best !

Hi, I am hoping that one of the Android developers on here might be able to give me a bit of advice please regarding editting my 'framework.jar' file.
I have a Jiayu G3 phone running Android Jelly Bean 4.1.2 but my caller ID is not functioning properly because it is not matching local & international numbers. Having done a lot of searching it appears that this is probably due to the parameters in the 'framework.jar' file as per this post on xdadevelopers here
I have succesfully decompiled the 'framework-res.apk' file using apktools and confirmed that the 'config_use_strict_phone_number_comparation' variable is set to false. However, I am having trouble decompiling the 'framework.jar' file.
I have copied the 'framework.jar' file from my phone and opened it in a Jave decompiler. However, all I am presented with is the following:
Code:
META-INF
MANIFEST.MF
preloaded-classes
(See attached image)
In the xda post it says the following:
II) Check for and fix MIN_MATCH constant in telephony framework
1) Decompile framework.jar
2) Open smali/android/telephony/PhoneNumberUtils.smali
3) Search for MIN_MATCH constant and set it to 0x7
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
...but I don't appear to have that in mine.
Am I doing something wrong.
If anyone could offer any advice I would be very grateful.
Many thanks
Russell
P'S. I tried replying about this in the original xda post itself but I don't have authorisation to post in the developers section so I thought I would try here instead.
So, is no one able to help me with this then. All the searching I've done indicates that when I decompress 'framework.jar' then I should have 'classes.dex' inside. However I don't have that.
Can anyone explain to me why this is please before I pull the rest of my hair out.
Thanks

You have to use apktool and apply the command to decompile..
eg.
apktool d framework.jar
this in cmd, will create a new folder named framework.jar.out, then you navigate inside this folder were all the smali's files are etc..
PS. you can't open framework.jar in java decompile, you can open framework.jar extract the classes.dex then use dex2jar tool and turn it back into framework_classes.jar this is the one that can be viewed with java decompilers
Does annybody know....
Where i can find a clean Settings.apk for the GE 4.3 (i9505) that i can mod? (Decompile/Recompile)

You've got me there. How would I find out?

Ok, I'm gradually learning here. Having done a bit of research it appears that my rom is odexed (I have .apk and .odex files in my /system/app folder).
I'm assuming then that this will scupper my plans to edit my framework.jar file.

No no, you just need to deodex your ROM then, luckily for you I've got a little thread here - [Info/How-To/Tools] Deodexing Made Easy... - which will help you with that, obviously ignore the Xperia Z Users part and give the rest a read.
