Hi everyone. I'm not sure if this was already posted. If it was then tell me so I can contact moderator and remove this thread.
Yesterday I flashed MIUI first time and while trying themes I noticed that some words are in chinese.
So I will tell you how to change your lockscreen (look at the attachments)
1. Download lockscreen theme.
2. Connent your phone to your computer
3. Open Internal SD > MIUI > theme > theme you want to edit
4. Copy file to desktop
5. Use 7-zip to extract mtz file
6. Now you can delete mtz file
7. Open your theme folder (that was extracted in step 5) and choose lockscreen file.
8. Now extract lockscreen file with 7-zip (if you can add .zip after lockscreen so it should look like lockscreen.zip)
9. Open manifest.xml with notepad++ and edit what you need. I had to change this http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/18/15447738.png/
10. Now save manifest.xml
11. Now open lockscreen file with 7-zip (step 7) and delete file manifest.xml
12. Drag and drop edited manifest.xml to 7-zip window like this: http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/534/dragk.png/
13. Now delete file that you extracted in step 8
14. Now select files and choose add to archive (with WinRAR) mark ZIP as archive format when prompted AND RENAME .zip TO .mtz http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/26/compress.png/
15. Save it and copy it to phone and install via file manager.
If you have questions post it below.

Dude I just want to say thanks for this info!!! I found all the chinese txt and used google translate and replaced the txt with english!!! Worked great!!! Now I have about 10 themes I need to do ...lol
help
once i save the manifest file into the lockscreen.zip file, is it suppose to stay .zip? because once i archive the files that were extracted from the original theme. and i go back to apply the theme. it gives me a totally different lockscreen.
the theme that im working with is Ice Cream MIUI_(805477.1).mtz and the problem that i have is that it won't show the weather which i don't care to see in my lockscreen (it would b nice) but the issue that i have is that it just gives me a line full of characters that i can't make out. they're not Chinese i believe they're a bunch up English letter overlapping each other.
has n e one come across this problem with this particular theme?
as soon as i can post a picture up i'll do so....having hit that 8 post yet...=\
Excellent! got it to work, now just tweaking it!
Edit:
Working on changing the slider to say "slide to unlock" next
PLEASE, can you explain me how to drag and drop manifest.xml in the folder advance?

At step 11:Now open lockscreen file with 7-zip (step
7) and delete file manifest.xml, i can't delete manifest. xml. Why?
MIUI 3.8.2
It seems that in MIUI the folder for themes has changed. I searched in the MIUI folder but could not find it anywhere - there seem to be only settings for the actual theme in "theme" subfolder. I installed some themes manually (from SD card), but they got moved from install folder to somewhere I really don't know. With AndroZip I found nothing, searching the whole internal (and even external) sdcard.
Is there any possibility to get rid of the chinese letters in MIUI 3.8.2?
This is waayyyy more complicated than it needs to be, just open the mtz with the MIUI Theme Editor and edit the manifest taking all the Chinese out of the lockscreen and generate the mtz again.

So no chance to remove it in already installed themes or themes from the MIUI themes app, I guess.

Go to /data/system/theme and pull the file named lockscreen from there, that's the currently in use lockscreen you're using. Put that file on your PC and extract it with 7zip, click "extract to lockscreen-\" then delete the ~ from the folder name. Use the MIUI Theme Editor and make a new theme and put that extracted folder in the theme, make sure the folder is called "lockscreen" and then open that folder, go into the advance folder and edit the manifest. Then in the MIUI Theme Editor click generate, put the new generated mtz on your phone and install it, profit!

Hi everyone,
I'm having a few questions regarding the theming of framework-res.apk on Android Revolution (No-Sense/Sense)..
After I pull the .apk, and decompile it, I edit the images so that the .9.png files stay intact. Then after that I compile the entire .apk and use WinRar to only push the images to the origional framework-res.apk..
But everytime I flash it I get bootloops and it won't boot into Android, any idea what I do wrong in the proces?
Thanks in advance!
if your using apk manager when you recompile the framework-res.apk it will ask you if its system app click yes then it will ask if you want to keep signature also click yes then you will have to delete the icons you changed in the keep folder then press enter in cmd window
it will compile and be called unsignedframework-res.apk rename to framework-.apk then open the rom using winrar (DO NOT EXTRACT) then just drag and drop the new framework-res.apk into the framework folder click ok let it do its thing then close winrar drop it on sd card and flash

Or do what i do, make a copy of the zip file then extract the files you want to view, put them in a folder, then the icons you wanna swap put straight into the orig zip folder in there place, this method works for me fine & without any bootloops

I can live with it but i would rather change it to a light gray or a different color? Any help would be very nice & not had a reply about this yet? Can you help?
i had the same issue and i found it easier to update the old framework and overwrite existing files. once you have completed compiling your new framework APK extract the contents and copy into the old framework... and that seems to work fine

change file from zip to apk
to change file type from zip to apk on windows 7
1- open computer in start menu
2- press alt
3- select tools and choose folder options
4- go to view and uncheck hide extentions for known file types
5- finally go to the file you want to change and change its name (ex: .apk)
It depends if you downloaded a file which was a zip file but was packed as an apk then yes changing the extension of .zip to .apk would be fine if you know what I mean.

Thank you. I'm also searching for this info
No. Android binaries are located in a apk, you just can't turn a mod into a apk, the only way to build an apk is from Android SDK. Its not possible.
I recently made an android game, just for fun, and for some reason the site i was on changed it to a zip file instead of an apk file. I used a script to make this app. So it works, but i cant play it on my phone because it is in the zip format and whenever i rename it to .apk on my phone, it doesnt work. Any help wold be appreciated.

Hi,
I'm trying to do something along these lines.
I have a keyboard skin that I want to change it's theme from blue to green. I unpacked it several months ago with EasyApk and attempted this but eventually gave up.
I've done all of the color editing to the .png files but after zipping and changing the ext to apk, it won't install. I get this message... "There was a problem parsing the package."
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I found a work around. I used 7zip in windows and made all of the edits (adding files, removing files, editing contents of files) I needed in the zip file WITHOUT unzipping it (7zip and winrar allow this). Once I did that I changed the extension back to apk and the app installed.
Hope this helps some people.

Not working for me. What editing program are you using for graphics?
For graphics, let's say images. I would work on whatever it is you need to add, outside of the zip, and then just add that file by replacing it with whatever it is you wanted to edit. Do you get what I'm saying?
I used 7zip on windows to do this.
REVIVE!!
Its like this for me, I got an apk of Loco Craft (Android Game) extracted it into a folder with winrar, then I modified a bunch of things in there, then I compressed it to a .rar file with WinRAR, then I renamed it from application.rar to application.apk. then when I sent it to my phone (Acer B1-730, Android 4.4.2) and opened the apk file, it said: "There was a problem parsing the package"! So what do I do? Please!!! I really want to try my new game! And pls help me I am only 9!!!

I have already made a mod for the carrier labels in the fi27 update. The new carrier label says team rejectz. If you would like to make your own carrier label(s) for fh23 for your own personal use, here's how...
What you will need:
-Pc/laptop updated with the latest java /sdk/jdk. (google it)
-Team Rejectz quick fix. (xda-dev section)
-Root file explorer such as : root explorer or ES file explorer OR adb shell on your pc to pull/push files from your pc to your phone.
-Notepad++ (google it)
-7 zip (google it)
- rooted e4gt and a NANDROID BACKUP!
1. Pull the framework res from your phone. Make a copy and save it. (system/framework)
2. Use the quick fix to decompile the framework res apk. The quick fix will make a framework res folder.
3. Go to res/values/strings.xml and open it with NotePad ++
4. At the top of NotePad ++ you will see an icon that looks like a pair of binoculars. That's the search icon.
Search for "Sprint". You should get 3 instances.
5 edit "Sprint" to say Black or Team Rejectz, your name or whatever you like. Just make sure its not too big or it won't work.
6. Recompile. After quick fix is done recompiling, there will be 2 new folders in the framework res folder; build, and dist. Go into the dist folder and you will see your new framework res apk.
7. Open the archive (don't extract, just open archive) of both the original copy of the framework res and the new one you edited from the dist folder. Drag and drop the META inf folder from the original to the modded apk. Now double click on the res folder in both archives. Drag and drop the drawable hdpi folder from the original to the modded archive.
Close out the archives and push your new framework res to system/app on your phone with either adb or your rooted file explorer. If you use the file explorer to push the framework res make sure you set the permissions the same as the rest of the system apks first. Push, reboot, enjoy.
Thanks

Yea. Tried this today. I ran into a couple problems. The last step you say to push the framework-res file to "system/app" is that correct cause there is no room in there. I only have like a couple megs in there. I would have thought that it replaces the original file in "system/framework". I copied it there and over wrote the original and set permissions . The phone restarted by it self when I did that and got stuck on the boot animation. I force restarted the phone again and it still gets stuck on the boot animation. I restored my nandroid. I followed your instructions to a T. With the exception of where the framework-res file should go:crying: My carrier label has the same amount of characters as "Team Rejectz".

Ok, first yes that should go to framework, system/app must have been a typo. Second, the getting stuck on boot could be a number of things, you'll have to get a logcat to find the specific cause. When this happened to me it was an improper edit that caused the xml to fail although it recompiled fine. Hope that helps.

Hello Guys i just figured out that the root explorer app has a lot of inbuilt cool features it is lot more than a file explorer it can handle archives like .zip same as winrar so i thought to use it as i use it on my pc
In this guide i will teell you how to edit an app icon using root explorer only
1) Rename the .apk to .zip like example xyz.apk to xyz.zip
2)Hold the xyz.zip and select extract
3Wait for it to extract and go to extracted file
4)It will extract all its content iin a folder open it you will see res folder open it
5)There will be many folder sartibg with drawable like drawable-idpi,drawable-hdpi...etc
6)Search for the icon image now replace the image with any image of your choice but remember to maintain same resolution and a png file format as icons are png in that android
7)Once done go back and hold the foldet and select to zip it then go to that zip folder
8)Rename the zip to apk example xyz.zip to xyz.apk and you are done
Note : The new apk made might not be installed as direct apk you might need to push it to system to make it work
i think this in general section
Hello,
Here is a quick guide on how to replace the boot animation and system font on oos 10.0 (Android Q).
ROOT is required.
Boot animation:
1. Download the attached zip and extract it.
2. Download a custom boot animation of your choice (XDA Boot animations collection).
3. Rename the downloaded boot animation file to "bootanimation.zip" and copy it to "BootAndFont > system > media > bootanimation.zip".
You can skip now if you don't want custom font.
If you don't want to change Fonts, just delete the "fonts" directory.
4. Download custom fonts of your choice.
5. Rename the fonts to their relatives in the "BootAndFont > system > fonts " directory.
6. After everything is in place, using root explorer (such as ES File Explorer) move both "BootAndFont" and "module.prop" into the device to the following location
"/data/adb/modules/"
(You can see the final result in the attached images.)
7. Go to Magisk, refresh the modules and make sure that the new module is now on the last.
Reboot the device and everything should work!
*Tested on OP7T, Should work on every OOS 10.
*Current Font is Germania-one, you can leave it as-is if you want.
Feel free to ask questions.

Hello,
Here is a quick guide on how to replace the boot animation and system font on oos 10.0 (Android Q).
ROOT is required.
Boot animation:
1. Download the attached zip and extract it.
2. Download a custom boot animation of your choice (XDA Boot animations collection).
3. Rename the downloaded boot animation file to "bootanimation.zip" and copy it to "BootAndFont > system > media > bootanimation.zip".

What happens if i have a separate font module? Will that get overwritten even if i delete the font folder?
Can confirm this works! I'm running OP7TP5G (TMobile) running the latest Magisk.
If anyone is unclear of the directions, once you bring the custom boot animation zip in the BootandFont folder, you have to just simply take the BootandFont folder and move it to the location OP mentions. Go into Magisk and confirm, once you are done reboot and you should have the new bootanimation (and or font)
This method is better than the other bootanimation thread on this forum as this does not require you to flash in Magisk nor worry about the permission write error you will get. Much appreciated it hella weird too because I was up all night trying to figure this out and then you come up with this guide ???

If you are removing the "fonts" folder, then it will not overwrite your current font.

Hi,
You are correct, on part 6, I wrote by mistake to move the bootandfont.zip instead of moving the directory only.
To apply your custom font, first, you need to understand that in different scenarios different fonts are used.
for example when tinted or Bold.
if you have a tinted version of your font should replace it according to the font name.
if you have just 1 version of your font, you can duplicate your font file and rename the copies with every one of the "Roboto" file.
You can see in the attached photo that all of the files are the same. (They are all GermaniaOne that was renamed to what the system is looking for).
I hope it works for you, please contact me if you still have troubles

Gotcha....Thanks alot bro...
I have a noobie question. Can't you just do the simple: move downloaded boot animation to the system file and replace it with the the stock boot animation and change permissions? A reply would be much appreciated

Android 10 system is read only so you need to use magisk to do it systemeless
Hey Yaaria,
Is there any way to replace the lock.ogg and unlock.ogg in root/system/product/media/audio/ui or it could be done using magisk systemless? Please suggest.

I've got same question here. When i'll have a free moment i'll try to flash this module with ui sounds.
EDIT: nope. There's something wrong with product mount, it's not working
@yaaria thank you for the guide, I installed animation etc. I downloaded font : roboto.medium.ttf
How select the font? must rename the roboto.medium.ttf, to Germaniaone.ttf ? and delete the ( first) Germaniaone.ttf?
Will this mod (font change attribute) work on stock AOSP ROM?
Nevertheless thanks for contribution.
Edit - Never mind it worked flawlessly.... Thanks for awesome tweak.
OMG Thank You! This is so awesome! I was looking for a way to change both of these and you killed 2 birds with one module. At first it didn't work but I then realized that the BootandFont folder was inside another BootandFont folder somehow, all I did was copy the folder containing the module.prop and system folder to the adb modules folder and deleted the duplicate folder it was in but the fonts didn't work. Then I realized I needed to copy the font I wanted running on My phone 18 times and rename them to all those roboto files, so the system loads the file but gets a different font! I now have the glitchy Cyberpunk 2077 Oni/Samurai mask boot image and the OCR-A font running flawlessly on My OnePlus 7T Pro 5G McLaren. You're awesome!
hey when i try to replace the stock animation it keep saying "the read only file error cannot change" stuff what should i do now ??
Why wont this work on OOS 11?
