Hello,
I am wondering how i can compile all the parts of a rom using winzip. i have done modding everything to the rom and will test it out, then upload it to the DEV section. please help me. winzip is not accepting my folder add option but just files.
Thank you so much!
Here is more info, when I add the files to the Roms zip file, it does not allow adding the full folders such as system folder but only single files in it. The file boot could be transferred.
You cant just add mods to the framwork ect before flashing you will end up with a bootloop, you have to decompile the apk's like framework-res.apk, modify them and recompile ..... you should use winrar not winzip in any case

Thanks for your time What about if i did a theme on a online kitchen and i have to use that framework-res.apk instead of the original? than what do i do? Or do i really need to change it?
thanks again!
Hi all, I'm newbie, and I want to share you guys the guide to make our status bar look like the Galaxy S4 (Specialy it has s4 white icon) .
-First you need to download the attachment, then extracted it
-Now you have to decompile ( or change extension to .zip and extracted it i guess) the systemUI.apk
-Next, find the drawable-hdpi folder in your systemUI.apk and replace it which the one you extracted in the attachment
-Recompile ( or compress by zip and change to .apk )
-Copy systemUI.apk mod to system/app ( remember to BACKUP your original apk)
-Use Xposed Tweakbox to make status bar full transparent and the clock to white, reboot and enjoyed
And sorry for my bad english :silly:

may be you have to sign the systemUI.apk before putting it back to your phone?
Maybe someone can help you make flashable zip. Easier to add mod ans people dont need to play with system files manually..

Don't sign SystemUI.apk - it's a System File.
Did you clear cach and Dalvik cache after replacing the File ?
please

Ah, now I got it.
You can not extract apk Files and change Files.
You have to decompile. -> Try to follow here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2203166
Only copy & past is not possible in this case
thanks
thanks mkruseonline, this link is what I need, already hit the thanks button for you
you make a folder, put everything in that folder and compress it ? What extensions you choose ( rar or zip) ?

Read first Post on Page 2
The reply up there I ask you becos' it's wrong, You can do this: Multi Select all the file > compress by zip > change to .apk. That done You need to decompile/recompile when customize the code, but now no need
Never unpack apks! This way you will lose signature.
Just take your apk,open it with WinRAR/7zip without changing the extension,go to res/drawable-hdpi and drag the files there. Then push your SystemUI again to your phone and it should work
If in the drawable-hdpi package there are also .9 pngs decompiling the apk may be necessary
If no one manages to get it working I will make a flashable zip
I think decompile is also necessary if xml Files are changed

.9.png Files are inside.

hope you can do it... better easy way :good:
thanks
mission accomplished for me
i was looking for this mod and i followed instructions on first post, but it doesn't work, because the new compiled systemUI.apk is not recognized by the phone (you can notice it when you see a different icon instead the red one).
The key is DO NOT ESTRACT any file, but only open systemUI.apk with 7zip, go to drawable-hdpi folder and drag files into it, images will be overwritten (i used only 2 files for this test, notification header and panel), then you can close 7zip.
Dariolob suggest is correct, do not extract files from systemUI.
For xposed tweak i followed instructions from youtube, search for "Make Galaxy Note look like the Galaxy S4"
sorry i cant post outside links
here is my mod:

Hello!
This is a Google Drive folder with all the deodexed .apks. I knew it would come in handy.
https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B03kWBzzGaK6TFUzaklyenpPRWs&usp=sharing
There is no need to download the .odex file because those .apks are deodexed, so they don't need an .odex file too to work.
Just get the SecGallery2.apk(direct link: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B03kWBzzGaK6aEN4UklEWEJnR00/edit [I hope it works]) and place it on your /system/app folder and set permissions rw-r-r.
Oo thanks. I search and cant find anythink..

when you decompiled Htclockscreenlite.apk, what png did you replace with your custom one? I decompiled it and I would assume you should customize the png named "lockscreen_ring" then compile the apk then....
- open the original apk with 7zip or similar
- open the newly compiled apk with custom lock ring with 7zip or similar
- copy the folder "res" and "resources.arsc" from custom apk and paste them into the original apk, overwriting the files
- then place the original apk with replaced files into your rom, or make flashable zip
Hope it helps! :fingers-crossed:

Okay, i try it now.
I deodexed my rom with Kitchen, very very good.
But i was a problem.. I didn't install an app, because: No have enough space... I solved this problem with Lucky Patcher. I deleted the odex backups.
I made a backup from my rom.
i installed The Beats Enhancer Mod V2.22.. Very good. I haven't boot loop.
But the APM V1.56 not correct for me, with this boot loop my mobile.
Your version end of boot loop...
I made new apk from stock version with my lockring png.. after i open the stock apk in 7zip and open the modded apk in 7zip.
I replaced and overwrited "res" and "resources.arsc" in the original apk.
I copied to /system/app overwrited the old file...

could you upload your original HtcLockScreenLite.apk so that i can take a look at it? I made it work on my rom which is Ignorance V5...same android version and all. The only thing is that the ring only appeared when I selected the original HTC skin.

Can anyone upload the folder of the Camera app (including the odex files) from OB21 in /system/priv-app for me? I'm currently using a custom ROM and I don't want to download the whole ROM just to extract the Camera app.
Thanks.
EDIT: Nevermind. I already got it.
