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

[REQ] Black statusbar for stock odexed ROM's

Hi guys,
Will any of the great themers here be kind enough to create a mod for the stock odexed ROMs that makes the status bar black?
There are mods available but almost all of them are for deodexed ROMs. A lot of people prefer to just have the stock odexed ROM (rooted or otherwise) and I am sure it will make their experience much better.
If it just requires a change of png's, I will be glad to do it myself if given correct directions. I am also slightly educated in terms of vrt theming. Unfortunately, as I am not from a techie background, stuff like XML editing stuff goes over my head..
Look forward to help and assistance. My current set up is LSN odexed stock+rooted..

Hi
1. decompile SystemUI.apk (dont forget frameworks)
2. edit file drawables.xml in path res\values\
for black color:
<item type="drawable" name="status_bar_background">#ff000000</item>
3. compile modifed apk
4. with 7zip take the 'resources.arcs' file of the "new" apk and copy them into original SystemUI.apk
5. place the SystemUI.apk in the path /system/app - set same premissions for new apk

Where do I put the modified system ui? Preload or system?

If you're running a JB 4.1.2 rom, it goes in preload\symlink\system\app

Unfortunately, when I tried to flash the modded systemui.. my status bar simply vanished.
Has it got to do something with the systemui in the system app folder still being odexed?

2. copy new SystemUI.apk to folder system/app

Do you need odex or de-oxed. I can't supply deodex. Here are the files for odex.
Sorry about .7z archive XDA will not allow .odex files.
