Hi All,
Please guide me on how to port i9100 themese to i9100g... I really miss all the themes that keep coming for the internation version so wanted to learn porting so that i can make dem for myself
Rough guide:
Decompile framework-res, systemui using apktool
Change png files
patch edited .9.png files
re-compile and sign
place on phone
Maybe somebody else will go into more detail. That is all I have time to say.
Hey,
I'm really desperate for help
If someone has a Framework-res.apk Edited and without the NAVIGATION BAR
It would really help.
my cell: galaxy nexus, 4.0.3, Open Kang 21
I was awake all night trying to remove the navigation bar on GALAXY NEXUS.
I searched every possible forum for a month and found no mods on that subject.
I found only a short guide that shows how to edit the FRAMEWORK-RES.APK
But after editing it, I could not RECOMPILE it.
I used APKTOOL
Maybe I'm missing something here (for the first time I was dealing with these files)
1. I copied the folder framework-res.apk
2. apktool if framework-res.apk
3. apktool d framework-res.apk
4. I edited in a word within a file folder and kept
5. apktool b framework-res
it did not build the file again and showed me "invalid resource directory name:" for many paths
Any ideas?
do I need to do something more before recompiling it?
if someone has already the Edited file or Mod in this topic it would help a lot!
Thank you.

Those are your problems right there...
Firstly, you cannot add anything to an apk, without adding a unique id in public.xml.
Secondly, you don't need to sign system apps.

You need to count in hex and add the new drawables, being careful not to have duplicate ids.
Also you need to edit the battery display and animation files so that the new images are used.
I recommend UOT Kitchen if you are not that experienced.

Hello.
Sorry if this is not an appropriate post in this forum.
I have been trying to decompile the whatsapp apk however I am not in possesion of a computer and I have not been able to decompile it with my phone nor with any of the online services available. I would very much appreciate it if somebody could decompile it for me to java code, with jadx or whatever decompiler you prefer. Here is a link to the apk: db.tt/EnFIGCZq
Thank you!
