Phone.apk compile error, don't ignore me please - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey, please don't ignore this problem. Every project I started is stopped by this error, I can't fix many of my roms because of it. I can't continue my work so please help me. Don't think I am another one person who has no idea what he is doing, I have some experience in porting but no one wants help me.
I have done many ports for my LG Swift and now I started developement for Xperia J.
But I'm struggling with error that doesn't allow me to fix the worse bugs in my ports.
The situation:
I have succesfull decompiled, patched and compiled framework.jar for my MIUI5 port, same with LiGux, MIUI4 and many others.
But when I try to fix Phone.apk ( values/bools.xml ) then it gives me this error when smailing (no matter which rom I'm poring):
Code:
I: Checking whether sources has changed...
I: Checking whether resources has changed...
I: Building resources...

This error appears with MIUI, Lewa, LiGux, every rom I try to port.
YES! I remember about if framework-res.apk and if ANY_ADDIITONAL_FRAMEWORK_HERE.apk
I tried to recompile those Phone.apk's on Ubuntu too but still the same error.
I have tried many versions of apktool, I have tried various tools for recompiling, I have tried to do it manually too.
I never works, always the same error.
Please help me with this, I can't finish most of my ports beacuse of it : (

not the apktool i meant the AAPT

The same, the newest version from this site: http://code.google.com/p/android-apktool/

The phone apk has been a problem for awhile now. It can't be recompiled by any means at the moment and needs to be built from source.

So how can I build it from source? For MIUI5, LiGux ?

For MIUI you cant. and if the other one doesnt provide source then you cant from them either.

Great,,, so there is no ability to fix not working micro in my LiGux port and Unlock Sim Code in Xperia MIUI port :/

Use miui's apktool: https://github.com/MiCode/patchrom_tools/blob/jellybean/aapt.exe and https://github.com/MiCode/patchrom_tools/blob/jellybean/apktool.jar
apktool d -t miui -f Phone.apk
apktool b -f Phone unsigned-Phone.apk
java -jar signapk.jar platform.x509.pem platform.pk8 unsigned-Phone.apk signed-Phone.apk
zipalign -v -f 4 signed-Phone.apk Phone.apk

Phone.apk
For Phone.apk, you will encounter a lot of errors on the recompile thanks to bad XML files in a few languages. The key here is to read the errors and correct them. Essentially there are the following problems with strings:
Strings that were broken onto multiple lines. Make them on one line.
For the above lines, remove the extra double quotes that are on the inside of the ><.
Look for apostrophes and put a \ in front of them.
Lastly there will be a bunch of lines with variable replacement codes in them like %1$d. These are all just text strings for some kind of error messages. Seems to be problems with all the stuff surrounding throttling. I simply removed the codes as I don't really care about such messages. Wish I understood the variables better but again, these were very limited messages and I don't see this as a major issue.
There is a lot to clean up, but don't let anyone tell you that this cannot be done because it most certainly can.
