Hmm seems weird.. It's like it needs certain framework to pull the correct public ids.. is this a system app? Or what rom did you get it from? If you pulled it from a rom..try installing that roms frameworks in apk tool. .then decompile it..
If not..pull a log and see what errors it's throwing at you when it fcs. .If you want post it here..and I'll see if I can help you at all

Looks like it is not installing correctly.. Also what Android version are you on? Does this app support it?
It is also requesting to write to internal storage which I know something in 4.4 have changed with that.
? Why are you decompiling it?

So I am trying to decompile the framework-res.apk and edit the styles.xml in values folder .. but everytime i compile it back and push it to my sytem/framework, and restart my phone bootloops..
this happens even if i donot mod anything in the apk and just decompile - recompile - push..

Thanks in advance
You have to sign the APK after you decompile!

This is wrong. Never sign a system framework file. You only sign user apps and a very small number of system apps.
What changes are you making? For what OS?

ohhk! It happened to me as well and someone told me its because I haven't signed the APK.
Anyways, Thanks for correcting me
Try by making compression level to 0 and heap size to 512
This solved my problem though.
Also be sure that u don't get any errors while compiling the apk.
Hit thanks if helped
I can't even get it to compile!

The parsing package problem has nothing to do with the apk being signed. There's a problem with the compression method or how the compilation of the app. If there was an issue with the signing of the apk then it would just say app not installed.

Did you make this theme from scratch, or did you base it off an already existing one? Try recompiling the apk again and see if that works.

made it from scratch..(downloaded from source)..so i imported the source into eclipse and compiled using that..now the theme installs but im getting (this theme was improperly compiled.please contact the themes author) error. i removed the preview.png from the drawable-hdpi folder and just kept the preview.png in the drawable folder..but its still giving me the same error..just cant figure out why??
also,i read somewhere that the API minlevel but either be removed or adjusted to the right level for the OS your using (10 for GB i assume) but i cant find anywhere in the manifest for the API level...i cant think of any other reason for this error.
thanks for the help also!
Ill start with my story...I want to modify settings.apk and put a few of my own apps in and change the appearance a little bit. I decompile with apk manager and i get res, smali, and AndroidManifest.xml. I don't get apktool.yml, i dont have a problem with this with a jb 4.3 settings.apk. I try to re-compile after edits but I can't because of the missing yml file. Does settings.apk for 4.4 have dependencies I require? Im running slimkat 4.4 for the SGH-T889. I just began learning and find this new world very intresting. Any help, tips, and advice would be amazing! Thank you for time

I have place framework-res.apk in C:\Users\Droid\Desktop\APK-Multi-Tool\other folder. I took it out of the framework folder of the un zipped ROM. This seems to work with 4.3 without a problem. I'm stumped haha

You need to install it before decompiling.
I suggest you to use "Android Multitool" (Do not confuse with APK Multitool).
It has nice GUI insterface.
Try with it.
There is menu to install framework.

See these are why tools like APKMulitool are not that friendly.. My suggestion to you is Google "apktool" find the Google developers site, download it.. Place all files in folder on C:\ and name it apktool..open cmd prompt at that destination..so it would be C:\apktool, then type in cmd prompt:
Code:
apktool if framework-res.apk
this installs the framework..
To decompile apk..place that apk in that folder then type in cmd prompt
Code:
apktool d settings.apk
to recompile..
Code:
apktool b settings

Hi there,
sorry for warming up this thread. I don't find the Settings.apk:
C:\Program Files\_Android\SDK\platform-tools>adb devices
List of devices attached
59973133 device
C:\Program Files\_Android\SDK\platform-tools>adb pull /system/app/Settings.apk
remote object '/system/app/Settings.apk' does not exist​
So the device (Kyocera KC-S701 unrooted) seems to be connected, but no Settings.apk. Also not when using "adb shell" with "cd system/app" + ls.
A bunch of files but no Settings.apk.
Any ideas?

What kind of help are you looking for? Do you want suggestions on what to add? Are stuck on how to add a particular feature to your ROM? One thing you could try is compiling AOSP and using that as the base for your ROM a great guide on doing that can be found here and here (Official Google guide to building AOSP). I'll be happy to help you out best I can so let me know if you still have questions.

Glad you were able to fix that, my main suggestion would be to modify only one part of your ROM at time (Just like a science experiment) that way you know that if it doesn't work it's very likely because of the modification you just made. Also logcat will be a big help to help you figure out where things are causing problems and what things are causing problems.

Try updating the system apps to their latest version and pulling the apk's of the updates version then including these latest version updated apk's in your ROM :good:.

Also make sure in your ROM's updater-script the system apps you have added are given the proper file permissions.
I did a work-around and made added apps get flashed to /data/app. But Play Store still fc's. I modified the updater-script from another Rom for this phone, but I only added lines.

I would say the same thing, with a side note that while warnings are often dismissed because you can still compile and it MAY work, they are there for a reason. In this case, as far as I see, there are missing translations. It may or may not be pertinent, but it should be dismissed upon inspection, not upon realizing that "it compiles".
