I am currently working on creating a new rom for the Note 2 (XXDLL4 - 4.1.2) and I was trying to edit SecSettingsProvider.apk. While I could decompile it, apktool kept bringing up errors while compiling even when not even modifying the apk. On other system files it worked correctly so I'm wondering if there's a different process to use with this file ?
This is the error :
Code:

Since the capacitive buttons really sucks, and no software update could make it better for me, I would like to enable the on-screen buttons. I found some general topics about it, like http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1364757, but I don't know if there is something specific to Xperia S.
Can I use this generic instructions?
There is no way to that without rooting, right?
yes rooting is the only method that this will work with.
If "rooting" still won't effectively solve the problem, "acceptance" is the last option...

I've rooted my phone successfully and I'm trying to edit the framework-res.apk following the tutorial (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1364757 and http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9126643#post9126643). No success yet, I'm getting an error on the apk decompile step:
Code:
[email protected]:~/Android/LT26i$ apktool d framework-res.apk framework-res
I: Loading resource table...
I: Loaded.
I: Decoding file-resources...
I: Decoding values*/* XMLs...
Can't find framework resources for package of id: 2. You must install proper framework files, see project website for more info.
I tried to ignore this error.. Edited the files, and tried to compile the apk again. But I get another error:
Code:

Anyone could help me?
Can someone in the know not just make the buttons more sensitive by changing settings in the system?

Press any key to continue . . .
It seems to be refering to a missing apktool.yml but the file is there and readable buy notepad++ so the decompile worked ok
resolved
