Fresh Rom changing status icons - EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have been trying to implement the icons in this thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=962939&page=4
I can do everything but the framework. Every time I modify the framework, I get into a bootloop where the phone just keeps playing the startup animation.
I can fix it through adb by restoring my framework-res.apk file.
Anyone with more knowledge than me that can look at this and see where the issue is?

Anyone have an extra com.htc.resources apk

So i tried to remove the gps disabled icon in the status bar by pushing a modified com.htc.resources to my evo, but of course i ended up putting it in a boot loop. so does anyone have an unmodified com.htc.resouces. if it matters i was on Fresh 3.3.0.1(the latest one).
EDIT: Ok so i tried reflashing fresh and that worked, so i got the com.htc. resources apk on the root of my sdcard... but i cant figure out how to push it to the phone. Can someone at least help me with this step???

[Q] cant make any changes to framework, help editing apk

this is my first time trying to edit my framework apk. i used apktool, decompiled it, made the changes, recompiled it, then moved the resources file from my brand new apk i just compiled, into the old apk, then flash the old apk... correct? i have tried every single variation of these and cannot get a single change to work. its as if it was never changed at all. im trying to remove my navbar on jbsourcery 3.1, (a 4.1.2 rom) and cant find a single way to do it that works. after 4 hrs of trying every single method i can imagine, reading every guide about apk editing i can find, nothing is working. can someone please help?

Status/Notification bar is no longer visible

I attempted to flash a .zip patch to remove the QSlide Apps part of the notification drop-down menu, and since then I've been getting constant messages of "System UI has stopped" and the status bar does not show at all. Tried a factory reset on the phone itself but to no avail. Going to attempt to flash system stock ROM from a .zip ... any other suggestions / advice???
Thanks in advance

Why do you guys keep flashing things without making a backup first?! Unfortunately there is no other way for you to get back to working order; you have to LGPST back to stock. Next time make a backup if you're going to flash ANYTHING.

I had something simpler happen with exposed framework, my status bar would disappear then I would get an error "system UI has stopped" . Just un installed all modules and removed exposed. Not sure if you are using exposed. But that's how I fixed mine.
When the f*ck did we get ice cream??
Can a mod move this to the Q&A section please before it gets out of hand. Not flaming you bro but we as a community need to keep things in order and post where we are supposed to post. Don't worry we've all posted in the wrong section a time or two.

You dont need to flash the whole thing just overwrite LGSystemUI.apk with the original one I attached, set correct permission and reboot.
You should backup any file you decide to change first..luckily the phone will still boot with a bad systemui apk
Hopefully that fixes it, hopefully what he flashed didn't change any other files outside of Systemui.

Thanks for the apk and sorry about posting in the wrong forum at first.....
How exactly should I go about installing the new apk though? When I used Package Installer it keeps saying "Application not installed" and doesn't run. Sideload Wonder Machine or something equivalent maybe? I had a tough time today with setting up LGPST so I'd like to save that as a last resort if possible.... Thanks for the responses though!
Never mind....figured it out. Forgot it had to be pushed over.... Needless to say I need to spend some more time around Android! It's been a while since I first got in the game.
Status bar is back up and running, and it even maintained removal of the QSlide Apps portion, which is what I was trying to fix all along -- my original screw up! All's well that ends well I guess.
Thanks all for your help! :good:

Wanna bring this back up and see if anyone knows what this could be or where to look been digging in the framework-res files for a while now.

Decompiling/Recompiling help

Has anyone been able to successfully decompile/edit/recompile any system apps? I think I managed framework-res.apk, even LGSystemUI.apk ok, but trying to recompile LGTeleService.apk just gives me constant errors (trying to get rid of that insufferable floating bubble that persists on top of the screen while you're on a call). Decompiling looks fine, but recompiling errors. I don't know if I have the wrong framework files or what, but I can't seem to figure it out. Anyone have any luck/tips? Thanks!

You might want to post what the errors are so we can look.. Without them can't be of much help
Use Apktool 2.0.1

Never mind. Turns out it's a shared library issue. Certain apks on the g4 can't be decompiled properly yet, including LGTeleservice and LGSettings
