Hello to all. I want to change the name of the Rom in "lidroid," but I have some problems about.
1) I Use APK Multi Tool.
2) I Decompil the file "lidroid."
3) With Notepad + + correctly I modify the name of the Rom in "Values / strings".
4) Save all and re compile.
5) All ok, the program does not provide errors at compile time, but ...
6) When I replace the new File "lidroid" in the Phone Directory it does' nt works (the notifications barr disappears).
I followed all the guides here, on XDA present, the operations are corrects, but nothing.
Can anyone help me? What could be wrong? Thanks.

If you mean lidroid-res.apk, did you 'if' the three additional frameworks before decompiling (and modify apktool.yml before recompiling)?

Yes, I am referring to "lidroid res.APK."
Yes, I modified the file "apktool.yml" (as read on a guide on XDA, perhaps even your own, can not remember), but nothing.
Sorry ... what do you mean with "did you 'if' the three additional frameworks before decompiling"? If I have Add "Twframewprk-res.APK" and "SystemUI" in the "others" Folders ?
Thanks for the answer in the meantime.

I found many threads of people who can't deodex Email.apk, Mobileprint.apk, even manualy, including every .jar in the baksmali.jar -c: xxxx.
Is there a Dev who could give us the command line to succesfully deodex Email.odex and Mobileprint.odex ?
Thanks

U don't need to deodex the whole rom, though you will need to deodex the whole framework.

i wana know this tooo
If ur not changing anything in the BOOTCLASSPATH files, u can deodex a single file
-app for eg.-, edit it and put it into ur device without deodexing anything else, delete the existing odex file.
u'll need baksmali for that purpose-apktool donot have that feature btw-also u'v to have framework files available (just pull the entire framework directory from the phone) pass it's directory via the -d option. App depends on particular jar files will require that through -c option.

That's the problem, even with the entire framework directory, I am not able to deodex Email.apk and Mobileprint.apk . Seems like if missing Bootclasspath ...
No problem manualy deodexing every other apks ..

I wonder if it ignores certain errors. If i use baksmali with the -I option, i can get deodexed output, But obviously the APK won't work.

Deodexing is not my favorite stuff I do it for my personal use at times, I use my own set of scripts on linux with custom bootclasspaths.
Would recommend to have a look here: http://code.google.com/p/smali/wiki/DeodexInstructions

I also wrote my own deodexing bash script with baksmali/smali/zip. The thing is, Those two APK request java libraries to deodex (java.awt.* and javax.swing.*). I could't find anywhere to get those dependencies from, So if you could share which boot classes you used for satisfying those requirements, it would be great.
Thanks!

I have found out how you do it, by checking my bash logs way back
Just use the -I ignore flag on the command, along with regular bootclasspath.
The errors are not an issue and the apps work fine.
Enjoy.

I think i didn't understand exactly these sentences in you guide "Before using the new apk you need to extract the resources.arsc, then simply put it back in the new apk overwriting the original resources.arsc.
In WinRar it will give you the option to choose the compression method, and it's vital that you choose Store as the compression method..."
The resources.arsc file i have to put in the new apk is the one in the decompiled apk folder ?

i want to ask if any body tried already to remove menus from settings like i want to hide the about phone on stock settings.apk deodexed on jb 4.2 i want to get rid of some menus in my settings i ported dakele os to mtk6589 so i would like to ask if how to? since it is a ported rom some of the menus are not a feature of my stock rom and i want to hide or remove them just to prevent boot loop for example like this in the attachment below i want to get rid of the ad block or sensor_cali .. ..
i badly need help kinda excited to release my ported rom hehe
TIA:good::fingers-crossed:
uppdate: ive done some experement in settings_header.xml i tried to change the name of about phone to phone only and it works so my conclusion is settings_headers changes the appearance of the settings menu
I have not used ICS or JB much but it's possible.
I know exact process of how to do that on GB but not ICS. You'll have to decompile Settings.apk and look for the xml which controls the layout of app.

Which tool are you using to compile apps? And System apps don't need to be signed. Maybe that's the problem.
If you want, you can check out Ultimate Guide in Android Development Section which shows how to correctly compile system apps. Its sticky(noun, not an adjective ) there

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)

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.
