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.

The system cannot find the file specified.
The directory is not empty.
EDIT: Downloaded the original version 4.9 and everything works swimmingly now.
Hi everyone,
I'm trying desperately to edit some files inside SystemUI.apk and framework-res.apk but I'm having some troubles...
I wanted to post in the specific thread of the program : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1310151 but I'm not allowed to, because it's my first post here.
First I used only apktool, I managed to decompile my 2 files with no problems, I replaced a few *.png files and tried to recompile it but I'm getting errors... (I only manage to recompile the files if I don't edit a thing)
Then I tried APK Multi Tool, I achieved to decompile my 2 files (with the option 9 in the program), but I can't recompile them after editing my files. So I decided to make a test, I tried to decompile and recompile (I hit 9 then 11 in the choice case) them WITHOUT changing a thing and I get errors anyway...
If I use the choice 1 (only extract the apk), do my editing and then zip the project (with the choice 3), directories are wrong inside the new *.apk, I get "projects\SystemUI.apk\(res or smali, etc...)" so the *.apk result is not usable
Here is the log file when I try to recompile WITHOUT changes :

Thanks in advance if you can help me
I managed to recompile my edited files with apktool by placing classes.dex and resources.arsc in the folder oh the extracted archives.
I signed my SystemUI.apk and framework-res.apk with signapk.jar but my ROM still won't boot...
I'm getting the same error
I've emailed the dev. Will let you know if I get a response.
Can you try removing the spaces in the folder name ? "APK Multi Tool" ?
My Windows user name has spaces in it, I was just wondering if that could be an issue.
Just a hunch since spaces can sometimes cause problems.
Let me know if that works !
---------- Post added at 08:10 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:46 AM ----------
Well ignore my previous post. I created a new user and tried to compile. Still getting the same error
Funny, i'm having the EXACT same thing happen to me.
I used to use linux and I know that when I was originally installing it(on linux) it wouldn't run without a file called "aapt". I had to download and insert the file with the others in a specific area.
Unfortunately I had to wipe linux and reinstall win7 for school purposes. So now here I am trying to test everything on windows, which is a blur to me since I haven't used it in so long.
In the error log we are getting, it's mentioning something about "aapt", and when I go searching for it in the APK-multi tool folders, it's nowhere to be found. This file may be what's causing the issue of de/recompiling.
EDIT: I figured it out, well kinda. I uninstalled version 1.0.2, and downloaded and installed version 1.0.0 of apk multi tool from his website. Tested again and this time everything went ok. there must be some sort of bug in the newest one.
Try this, it will work
Place apk in modding folder
Hit #1to extract apk
go to project folder and make your mods
now hit #3 to zip apk
then hit #1 to retain system signature for system files (system.ui, framework.res etc...)
go into modding folder and get the new unsigned apk and rename it to what it was before
place in sd card or use adb to push to where ever it needs to go
this works everytime for me, never had problems hope this helps
that works for editing images only...but I want to edit some .xml files, and when I extract I don't get them
thats where we need decompile/compile
Im getting this same issue..
I have the same issue every apk creates with a project/*.*.apk
Anyone fix it?
Ok so dropped back to version 1.0.1 and it works
when I hit option 3 in 1.0.1 I see
compressing res\
But in version 1.0.2 I see
compressing project\FILESNAME.apk\res\
Hope that helps

Andersondj, thanks for your reply.
Maybe it will solve my problem, coz i had installed API 14 (4.0) and now i`ll try install API 15.
Thanks bro, and see you on BrasilDroid.

See point 1, spaces in paths have given me issues before and spent ages trying everything before finally realizing it's how I'd named the folder. If that doesn't work, assuming you've installed all the necessary resource apks I'm not sure what to suggest. apktool never gave me issues [user=4315551]@Ticklefish[/user]?

[B]1. [COLOR="Red"]Make sure your path has no spaces[/COLOR]
2. Your filename has no wierd characters
3. Java/adb are in your path
4. It's not a proprietary rom's apk (aka Sense,Motorola,Samsung) (If u are, then use option 11 and drag the required framework, eg com.htc.resources, twframework-res...etc)
5. It's not a themed apk (if it is, expect .9 png errors, use as close to stock as possible)
6. Look at the log to know whats happening
7. If all else fails, post as much info as possible and we will try to assist you.[/B]

Guys, need your help!, while compiling an APK, what I get in the keep folder is the four files

2. res
3. AndroidManifest
4. resources.arsc
what files do I need to remove before compiling?
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.

Here my home.apk with only 3 deskop...
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

use xDAAutotool, Install framework first (framework-res.apk of the same version)... some apks wont recompile if framework is not installed... and for some u have to install another framework which should be Semcgenericuxpres.apk...
and next time provide a logcat of error if u r using
You don 't need to recompile it:simply modify. png and replace with winrar(i think it only contain graphic resources)
...hehehe:you want make a theme right?

JJ, when u recompile this apk, which version of apktool do u use? 1.4.3 and 1.4.2 both cause the aapt.exe to crash...
Ok, now understand what is your problem:when you add file in the apk with winrar use no compression, or better recreate the apk as zip archive without compression, i use this metod, then is better if you zipalign it.
Inviato dal mio ST18i
oh!! i've made this zip now.. I'll put it in my phone and report back..
Earlier what happened was, the original png was 1.44kB.. after modification it became around 25kB... so when i put in the apk, it didnt work... I noticed that now however, that apktool dosent actually compress images..as i used to think earlier..
ok.. the pngs are working.. however there are problems..
settings crashes... and the pngs lose their .9 data... they appear stretched and the black lines determining the 9 patch data also appears there..
Any way to retain the 9 patch info?
if you wanna edit .9.png you need to extract it, decompile it using 9patch first. then you can edit it and recompile back.
information about .9patch http://code.google.com/p/android-apktool/wiki/9PatchImages
SemcGenericUxpRes.apk recompile
Can someone please help me out on this issue? Please go to the below link for my question.

After asking the question to Q&A forum i saw this thread, so thought of linking.

Help plz!
Here is the problem....
Does any one know the trick for recompiling SemcGenericUxpRes.apk [4.1.B.0.587]?
I used apktool to decompile this apk and edited styles.xml and dimen.xml to sync some of the styles to framework-res.apk.
but when tried recompiling it failed saying "aapt" stoped working. i thought it could be due to corrupted *9*.png files.
but it doesnt seems to be as i included those *9*.png files part of another apk and just re-compiled, it worked.
then i deleted public.xml file from values folder and attempted an recompile, it worked.
but the signed apk from apktool didnt work, when it was loaded back. i do not know what do to after this.
if someone has an answer please help me out.

I've worked out a workaround for this..Its kinda funny..
If u wana edit any xml file, just edit it and put in in another apk. Any apk file that succesfully decompiles and recompiles..
There's a problem with semcgenericuxpres.apk, and it does not recompile with this aapt.exe..
so, u just add your modded xml from semcgenericuxpres to any other recompilable apk..
Recompile that other apk
and now open that apk with winrar
extract your compiled xml from that apk
Add it to the original semcgenericuxpres.
It works..
@Tan9890, Thanks for replying...as the view count growing up without replies . Do you any option for editing styles.xml?
Guys i really got bored this apktool compile errors!
I tried a lot of apktool manager .jar aapt versions but result is same!
1.apk referred to my framework-res.apk on Xperia ARC!
I can decompile but can not compile..
Im searching xda and google for a result but theres not any chances..
JDK SDK(full from 4.1 to 1.5/6) JDR JAVA latest versions..
All I want to edit xml's from SystemUI.apk but with no changes cant compile too..
