Has anyone been able to install honor 5x framework-res.apk with APKTOOL (or other tool)? To decompile any system apk you must install the framework of the system and I get errors when trying to install.
I am using newest apktool and I know it must be an issue with Huaweis apk as I can decompile other manufacturers apks with same tool.
I have read that others have had this problem as well but wanted to see if anyone has found a fix as of now. Someone reported a similar error on the APKTOOL's developer page here. https://github.com/iBotPeaches/Apktool/issues/836 Has anyone solved this issue or is something needed from Huawei?
If anyone can help I would really appreciate it.
Decompile huawei apks is impossible for the moment....

Greetings XDA, Im new here and i need some help regarding apk multi tool.. Ive searched the forums but i couldnt find any suitable answers
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..
Any ideas ?
Thanks in advance
You have to sign the APK after you decompile!
Follow This Page for more instructions on how to sign APK's.

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!
Post ur error from log

Hi xda community I'm going crazy for days because I do not understand why the application settings (CyanoGenMod7) that I modified with Apk Tool does not install on my device when the ROM is installed, I just changed some words in the language files but nothing else why the application is not installed, and what's the solution?

What error message do you get?
My first thoughts: wrong signature, no signature, compiled as non-system APK

Hello,
i have a problem recompiling framework-res.apk.
I can flawlessly decompile and change any other apk (also system apks).
Decompiling the framework-res.apk goes flawlessly as well...
But when i try to recompile apktool tells me
could not find sources
checking whether resources has changed
building ressourced
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
then it gives and incredible long error message that something is wrong in values/plurals (I have not even touched it!!) and some other **** that may be wrong..
Even if I don´t change anything I get this message..
First of all:
- i have installed the framework (java -jar apktool.jar if framework-res.apk)
- i have updated to the latest aapt.exe
- i am using apktool 1.4.8 but it also happens with all other versions (I tried it)
I don´t know what´s wrong since I can flawlessly change any other apks that way as i told..
I hope you can help me!
Thanks in advance!
Use apkmanager is best...... to install framework, put it in others folder use "apktool if framework-res.apk" cmd..... as ur error says, u r not installed framework correctly i think..... try this....
Sent from my Micromax A60 using xda premium
Well... apkmanager is like an automatic Version of apktool...
So I will get same Error...
Can´t anyone help me? Has no one ever discovered this Problem before?...
Can you post the long error message to track the issue copy it to paste bin or something

same problem!
Try THIS and report back.
Well thanks
That ICS Apktool worked. Allthough i was editing a JB apk...
Thanks anyway I hop it will remain working Otherwise I´ll report on that here.
Thanks again. You saved my ass.
The funny thing is that SystemUI is not recompilable with that apktool. But it works fine with my old one..
It seems that it only works for framework-res.apk...
isn´t that strange somehow?

It is a pain in the ass, try this one for it which is what I use for my SystemUI and other problem APKs, but keep the two separate, so have the first in it's own folder and this in it's own folder...
Hey guys,
I was searching for a tool to edit an apk file and i found Apk Tool on xda but i think it's not
that much easy to work with this program. (for a n00b, like me.. )
I managed to open and edit te file with winRAR,
but is this program also capable of proper compiling the app again, ready to use?
I tried it and it worked well i think, but is this possible with any app or other kinds of changes?
If this is stupid or something, please tell me. I am not very experienced in these kinds of things.. (neither in english, sorry.. )
Somebody any ideas?
Thanks in advance!

It all depends on what you edit,obviously you didnt make a fatal change,so it must have been small,no its not possible to edit anything else as far as the manifest and xml files.You'll get a parsing error.

Okay, that's true i only changed those kinds of files and it wasn't a problem yet.
I changed somethings in an demo version of an app and now it recognizes it as the full version so winRAR can be pretty usefull for apk edit if you keep things simple like this..

Hi guys, I'm fairly new to this but I wanted to know how I can change the list pressed animation style in Xperia U? I mean the white background glow on pressing and holding any list button in menus or tabs or buttons, for example see the following photo (attachments), how the background of the notification has turn to white (fading).
I thought there might be a. 9.png file for that, but when I started searching for in the drawable folder of framework-res.apk, I wasn't able to find it?
So I wanna know that am I searching wrongly or there is no such file and just a xml code which I'm not able to get my hands on because of lack of my knowledge of decompiling the apks. I tried decompiling it by apktool but it won't budge. Also to edit pngs I am using a simple technique (posted by a xda user, sorry for not recalling your name but thanks) that is to just open or extract the roms through 7zip and then just copy them back to the respective apk file. This seems to be working as I was able to create my own lockscreen. So please help me in finding where I'm going wrong.
Thanks in advanced...
You must decompile the framework-res.apk and then, search in /drawable-hdpi folder the image. Its name is notification-normal-bg.9.png or something like that. Edit it with photoshop, and, when you have all that you want, compile the framework-res.apk and change it in your phone. Do a backup before do anything.

First of all thanks for your advice, but as it turns out the Sony isn't using that file?? And also I just did it with my normal method (described before), so I guess it might be a problem that I'm not decompiling it, but as it turns out I don't know exactly how to. So can you suggest me a Guide or something like that through which I can learn to do it without any problems...?? Because last I time tried it, I got a failed app! Please help, thanks in advance...

You must use APKTool for decompile. When you got it it's so easy to use.

Yeah buddy, it was pretty easy. And I figured out what I was doing wrong before, I wasn't including framework-res.apk and SemcGenericUxp.apk in the tool to help it compile the resources! Thanks.
