I think... Using 7zip you select view archive. Then modify.

I can extract the .apk
Bt how to merge that extracted files into a .apk file ?? 7zip cn't do it bro

When I've changed battery icons in the systemUI.apk I've used 7zip. But dont extract! View the archive, then drag and drop the files in making sure they're named the same as the ones they're replacing. Then when I backed out its saved

My 7zip doesn't have any 'view archive' option bro

Just download wonokairoen's theme from themes and apps section. Extract it using winzip/winrar etc.
Replace all his files by your files, dont change anything in META-INf folder.
Zip back the files and your theme will be ready.
Dont forget to take wonokairoen's permission before using his zip.

FTF file is just a zip file, inside it there is a file system.sin you should extract from it.
Any archiving software should be able to do it.
After extracting system.sin, open flashtool go to tools -> sin editor.
Click the 3 dots and select system.sin, click extract data.
When finished there will be 2 more files in the same directory of system.sin, system.partinfo and system.ext4.
system/ext4 is the file you need.
Get ext4_unpacker http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1921399
With it you can extract any file you want from system.ext4

Extracting the apk breaks the apk (Signature)
So to do this you need a computer. Can't do this on phone.
1st way:
-Open the apk with WinRAR (without changing the apk extension)
-Simply drag & drop the D.O.C's files in respective folders & click OK on prompt.
-Push into system with correct permissions.
2nd Way:
You have to decompile the apk, replace files, recompile, sign it & then push it into your system.

Try apk multitool... If you want to just make some images changes just extract it and make changes then pack it... If it needs xml changes then you will have to decompile and compile... These can be done with apk multitool...

I meant that don't rename the file to .zip. You can open .apk file by Right click > Open with > WinRAR. Now just drag & drop D.O.C.'s files in the RAR. Window in respective folders then click Ok.
