Hello,
I wanted to de/compile the systemui.apk and got errors.
I installed framework-res.apk with apktool.
After installation I used apktool (Win7) and decompiled the systemui.apk.
But I got the same errors as many others have gotten them.
brut.blahblahblah..
So I tried other apktool.jar (apktoolICS.jar) and it worked fine!
I opened the new systemui folder and there are the following folders:
res and assets
no smali folder. is it right and normal?
Because the compiling with old apktool (not apktoolICS) didn't work, I compiled with the ICS file and it worked. I got the translation message (airplane_mode).. Not interesting for me atm.
When I look at the new built systemui.apk, I wondered about the file size.
The new file: 1.009kb
The old file: 1.338kb
I signed the new file. Now the file size is 1.044kb.
I edited only a xml file (styles.xml)..
The file didn't work on the sgs2..
Could someone tell me what I did wrong?
Please help me
Best regards
Marcus
*push* after moving to correct section
maybe no need to sign your new file,
try to drag the META-INF folder and the AndroidManifest.xml from the older file to the new file you build
BTW, is your old systemui file a deodex one?
if no deodex, the smali code wil include in the odex file~
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
I am trying to edit settings .apk it decompile easily but whenever i try to recompile its shows me error
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
