I want to decompile SystemUI.apk for editing, but the problem is that it is already themed and decompliling throws many errors at me. Any idea how can I edit that "already edited" SystemUI.apk. It has been taken from Custom Rom (JB 4.1). Thanks
Hello, i would like to modify this systemui.apk but everytime i decompile and then recompile the apk it is no longer functional and is of a smaller size.For example, i decompiled and recompiled the apk without any modifications and then signed it but the file was 2.25mb instead of 2.53mb and didn't function
so can you please decompile the apk and recompile the apk, if it is about 2.5mb please upload the decompiled folder
I have uploaded the systemui.apk nd framework-res.apk
thank you
Hi
Very please help
The rom 4.1.2 I could using winrar for simple to change png to another png
Now I'm on 4.4.2 (DittoNote 5.2).
I want to change the png (tw_quick_panel_quick_setting_button_bg_normal.9 ???)
I think it is png a background toogles
I change my png i using winrar but nothing changes.
It is still the old png and no new png.
For what is this happening?
png's ending with 9 are not ordinary png's, they are 9-patch png's and in order to edit them you must DECOMPILE the APK, edit and then RECOMPILE. Anyway, simple adding with winRAR is nota good idea if you don't do ZIPALIGN because it slows down the reading of images....
Ah, and why post a question in app section, isn't Q&A more logical choice?
So I should do this in the Q & A - my mistake.
Ok thanks for the information.
delanik - this is just an example:
I'm trying to change the png in Note 5.2 Ditto 4.4.2
Is the file is tw_quick_panel_quick_setting_button_bg_normal.9 is background switches?
I exchange tw_quick_panel_quick_setting_button_bg_normal.9 another png
with another theme rom Note 2 but nothing has changed.
As I said - pngs with 9 at the end CAN'T be edited without recompiling. Use APKTOOL to decompile APK, then edit, then RECOMPILE. Then from recmpiled APK, copy PNGs (or whole res\drawable folder) to original APK.
If it doesn't change (and it should even when you don't do recompile - it should show BAD image) then you are not editing correct image.
Thank you very much dalanik
I SystemUi decompile framework-res.apk and now the rom DN4 v2.
It will be very difficult for me because there is a lot of files QMG
There is no custom QMG files (icons, button ....) in other roms or themes
to replace them in my rom DN4 v2
