[MODDING/THEMING] Apktool for ICS apks

If you are an amateur/aficionado modder or themer, this is for you:
Some people are still having problems de/compiling system apks on Samsung ICS builds, most of the errors arising are related to "bad magic values". I googled a little and managed to find a modded Apktool. I’ve tested it and it has worked fine so far with many apks (e.g. framework-res, TouchWiz30Launcher, etc).
I packed all necessary files below, including new aapt from Android SDK 4.0.3. As you may already know, you need latest JDK for this to work.
*** NOTICE *** There are some apks like SystemUI that need special treatment. If errors are found when decompiling an apk with ICS Apktool, you have to try decompiling it using the Original Apktool which I've just uploaded, then for recompiling it you need to use the ICS Apktool (if you run the Original Apktool to recompile, you will probably encounter errors). Remember, both packages contain different aapt executables so it is recommended making two separate folders for each zip content.
Credit goes to Brut.all who developed the original Apktool and gcrut…@gmail.com who modded it.
NOTE: This thread is not intended to be a guide for modding or theming. If you want to start messing with apks, there are many tutorials out there.

this is not work for me... got error when trying to decompile SystemUI.apk:

Delete classes.dex from SystemUI.apk before decompiling. If you want to edit classes.dex use smali/baksmali 1.3.2.

Do the following:
Decompile SystemUI using "Original Apktool" (already uploaded to the OP). If you try to recompile the apk with the Original Apktool you might find errors so you have to recompile it but this time using the "ICS Apktool". I hope this work for you.

Take into account that both packages contents must be in separate folders to retain their respective aapt file which is different for each one. The best way to do this is to decompile SystemUI with Original Apktool then take the generated SystemUI folder and copy it into the ICS Apktool folder and recompile after your modding is done.

Nice thread mate. This will e of great help for new themers
Cheers

too bad... stil got same error... I'm really confused....

good job, helpful tool.
thank you.

I've solved my problems with apktool v1.4.3 and ICS-JPQ using the original aapt file of the last SDK/plattform-tools and not the aapt file provided by apktool. Now I can decompile/recompile whatever ICS file (at least for now).
Tested with framework-res.apk, SystemUI.apk, Settings.apk, Phone.apk and android.policy.jar

The last error you posted seemed related to bad version of aapt.exe. That's why I recommended using both Apktools one for decompiling and the other for rebuilding, that way is how it has worked in my case.
I wish I could've helped you more.

this method work for me in the past, while decompiling MIUI's framework, now, can't seem to make it work using stock rom's framework, tried using different version of apktool and apk manager, and the one in this thread, to no avail. im also having that aapt problem

It's really a pain in the ass to find a way to decompile/compile any ics apk file, so hope the tips suggested in this thread work...

Here is my ApkManager, it's based on ApkManager 4.9 and contain an updated aapt and hacked Apktool 1.4.3 (new magic values) with updated smali (thanks to Ficeto).
I hope this will help you, it should work for all current ICS apps.

I just tried de-compiling and re-compiling the systemui.apk, which is the only apk I've had issues with since making the transfer to ICS and it worked perfect using this. Thank you SOOO much!!

Hi, Tiffany. I have trouble when I decompile and compile SystemUI.apk. Can you show me the step? Do I need to pull framework-res.apk and twframework-res.apk first and run "apktool if" command?

I understand the process of theming, but I'm running into errors that I can't seem to fix.
Trying to make some quick XML edits for SlimICS's framework-res....

Apk Manager v5.0.2
ApkTool v1.4.1
7za v9.20
Roptipng v0.6.3

I tried using APKMultitool instead of APKManager, same/similar errors.
Any help would be greatly appreciated...
Hell, if someone has the time to help me via teamviewer, I'll send you a working HD7 with a busted screen for you to tinker with.

i'm having the same problems but with apktool and recompiling well... pretty much anything. the only thing i've successfully recompiled was music2.apk and i didn't even make any changes to it. i get pretty much the same errors. it starts then p00f a bunch of errors.

It's a bug in the version of apktool that adds an extra % to the end of the plurals. Try using the toolset i posted here instead: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1566778

Art if this works I'm 100% indebted to you.
I noticed you dont mention loading your framework into memory... is that safe?

apktool has some bugs in combination with ics
heres a modded apktool for ics....
http://www.xda-developers.com/android/modified-apktool-for-troublesome-system-apks-on-ics/

that looks good, but in the original post they mention having to swap between two different apktools, quite the PITA.

decompile with the original, compile with the modded..
how do i start this tool?
if i click the .bat a window opens quickly and closes directly, cant read it lol..

READ THE PROCEDURE PROPERLY, Failing to this will cause boot loop. Dont try if are a noob. You should know about compiling process properly.
PRE- REQUIREMENT :​-rooted
-notepad++
-some knowledge of xml editing to tweak urself
-knowledge of decompile/recompile
-backup current framework-res.apk in case u pushed unproperly compiled apk
-dont forget to copy metainf folder / android manifiest.xml from orignal framework to modded [ using 7.zip ]
-permissions set to rw-r--r-- after pushing
-copy icons to / framework-res/res/drawable-mdpi
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
codes:
open / framework-res/res/drawable/*******_****.xml : [name as below]
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After opening XML replace whole code with this one . follow in all XMLs.
You have to edit 6 xmls.
progress_large.xml AND progress_large_whie.xml
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<layer-list
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item>
<rotate android:drawable="@drawable/spinner_72_outer_holo" android:fromDegrees="0.0" android:toDegrees="1080.0" android:pivotX="50.0%" android:pivotY="50.0%" />
</item>
<item>
<rotate android:drawable="@drawable/spinner_72_inner_holo" android:fromDegrees="720.0" android:toDegrees="0.0" android:pivotX="50.0%" android:pivotY="50.0%" />
</item>
</layer-list>
progress_medium_xml AND progress_meduim_whie.xml
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<layer-list
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item>
<rotate android:drawable="@drawable/spinner_48_outer_holo" android:fromDegrees="0.0" android:toDegrees="1080.0" android:pivotX="50.0%" android:pivotY="50.0%" />
</item>
<item>
<rotate android:drawable="@drawable/spinner_48_inner_holo" android:fromDegrees="720.0" android:toDegrees="0.0" android:pivotX="50.0%" android:pivotY="50.0%" />
</item>
</layer-list>
progress_small.xml AND progress_small_whie.xml
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<layer-list
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item>
<rotate android:drawable="@drawable/spinner_16_outer_holo" android:fromDegrees="0.0" android:toDegrees="1080.0" android:pivotX="50.0%" android:pivotY="50.0%" />
</item>
<item>

</item>
</layer-list>
Now , Copy the icons attached below to framework-res/res/drawable-mdpi
Now Recompile, AFTER THAT OPEN ORIGNAL AND MODDED [UNSIGNEDXXX.APK] IN 7ZIP AND COPY METAINF FOLDER AND ANDROID MANIFIEST.XML FROM ORIGNAL TO MODDED. Rename the modded.
Push to system / framework/ "here"
Set permissions to rw-r--r-- after pushing
Restart....
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
here ="@drawable/spinner_xx_xxxxx_holo represents :
xx= icon which is to be used ; u can change icons of ur choice and put it here and change the name.
<rotate .../> - tells the icon to be rotated from which degree to which.
This is very simple , and u can change it as according to you.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------FUTURE UPDATE MAY INCLUDE SMOOTH ANIMATION----------------
I am currently using:
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<animated-rotate android:drawable="@drawable/spinner_black_76" android:pivotX="50.0%" android:pivotY="50.0%" android:frameDuration="25" android:framesCount="48"
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" />
Here -
android:frameDuration="25" android:framesCount="48" - gives smooth animation to ur icons.
for this i will attach the ready made xmls. [NON -HOLO]
This are not holo ; this are the modded for smooth animation and this will not give holo look.
to get holo look u have to use the above codes.
About Attachment - non-holo Those who just want to change icons and smooth animation use xml provided. THOSE WHO WANT REAL ICS SPINNERS , FOLLOW ABOVE PROCESS
If u like my work , share ur click on THANKS ..:fingers-crossed::fingers-crossed::laugh:

Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<animated-rotate android:drawable="@drawable/spinner_16_outer_holo" android:pivotX="50.0%" android:pivotY="50.0%" android:frameDuration="25" android:framesCount="48"
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" />
I implemented the
Code:
android:frameDuration="25" android:framesCount="48"
in
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<layer-list
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item>
<rotate android:drawable="@drawable/spinner_16_outer_holo" android:fromDegrees="0.0" android:toDegrees="1080.0" android:pivotX="50.0%" android:pivotY="50.0%" />
</item>
<item>
<rotate android:drawable="@drawable/spinner_16_inner_holo" android:fromDegrees="720.0" android:toDegrees="0.0" android:pivotX="50.0%" android:pivotY="50.0%" />
</item>
</layer-list>
But not effective , i will update once i get that work too.

Try looking into build.prop tweaks for animation?

Would it work just by renaming your files after the old files and replacing them?

the files which I have attached are not for dual circle , they are for single circle.
if u just want animation smooth, replace d files and recompile.
if u want ics , file d process.

I can't do it, but can hint you that - you have not copied the icons on the required folder - error says that given resources are missing, if you don't know then copy icons in all resources folder.
I can't help you because I have no tools to do as I have corrupted my hard drive and I am at great loss

Firstly have you installed the framework before continuing decompiling it?
I suggest you to use APK Multi Tool as its eaiser and has much more features.

Compile it !
Thats all! You will have a ink effect when you select the ripple in lockscreen!
One can activate any colors, but it needs some more work for which i will put seaprate guide and also i am planning to release the apk to control the colors!

After trying your method it did not work i founded out that some layouts defined by publick.xml are not in layouts after all so i deleted them rearranged public.xml and it worked

See if it works

somc_color_accent_dark is exist on LP too, in colors.xml in framework-res.apk or android.zip (theme asset)
in colors.xml, there are:
<color name="somc_color_dark_primary_dark">#ff158597</color> ----> used for status bar color
<color name="somc_color_primary_dark">#ff009faf</color> ----> used for action bar color
<color name="somc_color_accent_dark">#ffd15b40</color> ----> used for tab indicator color, slider color, accent color
<color name="somc_color_accent_light">#ffed6642</color> ----> used for floating action button color
