[Q] Installing AOSP Dialer/Contacts on Sense ROM

I've spent the last few days trying to use apks extracted from CM-6 on a Sense ROM. I cannot get them to install, and simply replacing the apks in the /system/app folder didn't do the trick either.
I have also tried using dsixda's ROM kitchen to build a custom rom that would install these apks upon flashing the ROM. No dice there.
The apks I'm trying to replace/install are:
/system/app/phone.apk
/system/app/TelephonyProvider.apk
/system/app/Contacts.apk
/system/app/ContactsProvider.apk
I have also tried copying the files from /data/data/com.android.phone
The only one that I have successfully installed is the Email.apk included with CM-6.
Any guidance would be appreciated.

Correct, sir! Lost track of my tabs -- sorry for that.

Porting themes

Hi,
Is it possible if somebody can guide me on how to port themes.
I tried using the Theme porter and placed the i9100 theme(SystemUI,framework etc) to new folder and in the old folder i placed the i9100g (similar files) and ran the script. With this i do have the system files but i dnt know how to get the META-inf folder for a successful flash.
Is this the correct way to port? (there was a guide which had mentioned about decompiling the framework apk but what exactly do we do with the decompiled folder? since i dnt want to make any changes and just port the theme A-Z.

template .zip for flashing files to LP

hi XDA,
i want to modify Settings.apk and add some apkĀ“s to my Lollipop ROM (deodexed and zipaligned).
it was no problem to get a zip template for KK, but now LP has another file structure (each apk has its own folder).
Can somebody post here such a .zip template for LP deodexed ROM that i can make a flashable zip file for my modifications?
Thx

Can someone post the deodexed version of the robin .apks?

All it takes is for you to take a backup and run the deodex wrapper on your device creating classes.dex's files in all you'r apks allowing to edit the smali. I would do it myself but I currently dont own the device.

Here you go i included the app, dex, framework, odex, priv-app you will need 7-zip because i compressed it from 850mb's to 350mb's.

That does not have all the .dex files in the dex folder. Thus I can not access the smali... Which is what I was after a certrain method within the netxbit systemUI smali. Though it did give me the .dex files of several apks just not the exact one I was after. How do I access the systemUI .dex. It's been a long time since I've made roms and deodexed apks especially now with art. I'm really after the UI .dex file so I can gain access to a specific method within in it. If you could post that I'd be ecstatic Something I decompile to track down smali methods I want to recreate in my own custom 6.0 SystemUI.
Nvm Ticklefish's tool did the job http://www.mediafire.com/download/czod7v081w0ravt/TickleMyAndroid+-+v13.3.0.exe
The only tool out of all the deodexing tools that worked!!!!! The only one! Aside from the linux kitchen but I wasnt setting that up... Mess up my linux install no thanks!

Modifying APK in system.img of ROM

Hello All,
I am trying to add/edit xml files found inside "assets", "vendor" directories of an APK included in system.img of a ROM.
The APK is available at
system/priv-app/CarrierConfig/CarrierConfig.apk
system/priv-app/CarrierConfig/oat/arm64/CarrierConfig.odex
system/priv-app/CarrierConfig/oat/arm64/CarrierConfig.vdex
Is there a guide to edit the xml files inside the apk, re-compile, put it in a ROM.
I am also interested in making this a Magisk module, So that I can install on top of any ROM.
Please share a guide for it.
Wrong section?
Use APK Easy Tool or BatchApkTool for de recompiling.
For extract Rom use System Extractor WIN master.
All this tool search in Google!
Senior Member what you doing here? Go to to right section!
I had this,
system/priv-app/CarrierConfig/CarrierConfig.apk
system/priv-app/CarrierConfig/oat/arm64/CarrierConfig.odex
system/priv-app/CarrierConfig/oat/arm64/CarrierConfig.vdex
I used apktool to decompile the apk and recompiled it after my modifications. I have also zip aligned and signed the APK.
Can I just replace the apk without modifying or touching the vodex and odex files(I made changes only to the XML files. No java files changed in the modification)?
