Modded framework-res.apk with CRT off-animation

Can someone post a modded framework-res.apk of CM 9 beta 6 with CRT off-animation enabled cuz I can't decompile mine framework-res.apk.
Thanks in advice

Why can't you decompile it?
Apktool download here.
Just pull it from phone and:
apktool if framework-res.apk
apktool d framework-res.apk

1)
you know what? if you have just edited the *.png and *.9.png files.. then you just use Winrar or 7zip (7zip i recomend)
first decompile with apktool .. then edit the .png n .9.png and then open the apk file with 7zip n just drag the files you edited.. n you done .. now just flash the file (hope you know how to make a flashable zip , if you dont then go to the index by VBHTT in general section n search there ) but do not try to edit xml files with this method.. it may end up messing your rom..
OR
2)​if you wanna edit xml file then install all resources to your computer..
lets take an example..
you wanna edit framewor-res.apk
then you will need com.htc.resources.apk(from /system/framework) n systemui.apk(from /system/app)
n then install all three of them with apktool on pc with these commands
Code:
apktool if framework-res.apk
apktool if com.htc.resources.apk
apktoo if systemui.apk
then decompile the framework-res.apk with this code
Code:
apktool d framework-res.apk framework
it will create a new folder named framework n decompile it inside it..
after done editing the xml files n pngs you can compile it with this code
Code:
apktool b framework framework-res(new).apk
now copy this new framework apk file to desktop .. rename it to framework-res n then flash it .. hope i helped.
NOTE:
do not write apktool b framework-res.apk framework
here 'b' means BUILD .. the parameters are wrong. you cant build the apk framework like this.. instead it should be like this..
apktool b framework framework-res(new).apk
here frame work is the folder that is to be built as an apk with file name framework-res(new).apk this is the thing that might be causing you error.. hope i helped

Hi mhrsolanki2020
I am agree with your tut, but one thing, are you sure we have to type " apktool If systemui.apk " to edit .xml files ?
Because when i edit .xml in systemui.apk , i always only typed "apktool if framework-res.apk " with "apktool if com.htc.resources.apk" and everything works fine .
Sorry for my english

[Help!!! ] Need help compiling apks...

I have tried multiple guides and apktools with no luck....Please someone point me in the correct direction--->…I have been able to decompile, but no luck on recompile...

What errors are you getting? What OS do you have? Is this on a TW Stock based ROM or AOSP? Which apktool.jar/aapt.exe are you using?

Sry...windows 7....tw....systemUI.....upon recompile doesn't create new apk in apktool folder....caused by Java.io.File not found exception:....using the apktool found hereandroidforums.com/esteem-all-things...properly-decompile-recompile-aps-apktool.html

Use this apktool and aapt.exe
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1755243
Make sure you rename that jar to apktool.jar and place both the jar and exe in your apktool folder
Next, go to C:\User\Owner\apktool\framework and delete whatever resource apk's are in there
Next, get the framework-res.apk and twframework-res.apk from whatever ROM your working on and place them in your apktool folder
CD that apktool folder, after you cd type
apktool if framework-res.apk
apktool if twframework-res.apk
Decompile your SystemUI.apk again, make edits, recompile

The problem is with the signing. (The framework-res.apk has to be signed with the platform key)
Try to sign the apk (use apkmultitool), but I think it won't work, because you wont have the platform key.
I suggest you to do the following:
If you use apktool or apk-multi-tool apkmultitool.com:
1) if you want to change drawables, just push the new png-s into the original framework-res.apk (open the original framework-res.apk with 7zip, and drag and drop the new png in the corresponding drawable folder).
2) if you want to change xml-s, decompile framework-res.apk, change xml-s, recompile framework-res.apk, then extract the "resources.arsc" from the new apk, and push it to the original framework-res.apk (again with 7zip or any compatible file manager)
3) if you change some smali code, then you need to the same as in step 2, but with the classes.dex file.
Basically you should use the original framework-res.apk as a starting point, and (without extracting it) push all your mods into it!

I am not clear from what you did. But you need to do it this way.
apktool if ion SemcGenericUxRes.apk
apktool d -t ion framework-res.apk out
make changes to decompiled source
apktool b out new.framework-res.apk
Now open both framework-res.apk and new.framework-res.apk side by side using an archiver. Do not use windows open.
Now you will notice one thing that the new framework does not contain META-INF folder.
Delete the resources.arsc file from the original framework-res. Drag the resources.arsc from the new framework-res and dump it on to the original framework-res. Close both the files.
Now you are ready to use the updated original framework-res.apk

1.Install framework about framework-res.apk and SemcGenericUxpRes.apk.
2.Decompile framework-res.apk and make change of the source.
3.Recompile framework-res.apk and build the new framework-res.apk.
4.Take the resources.arsc and the raw which I changed from the new framework-res.apk to the original framework-res.apk.
5.Replace the final framework-res.apk in my phone with 644 permission.
I reboot and loop in the bootanimation.

If you have followed pepitos tutorial from themes section then it should be ok.
There is nothing else to do.
