[Q] Parsing Error with .apk

I was editing the .png files of my widget locker to change the bottom lock bar and for some reason i cant get it to reinstall.
-Im using a mac and a Droid2 (unrooted) and these are the steps i took
-got the .apk off my phone
-changed the extension to .zip and unzipped it
-changed the png files that i wanted to change
-compressed it back into a zip file
-changed the extension to .apk, and then attached my phone and stuck it in the downloads folder
-Then when i try to install it it just says 'Parsing error'
Ive installed other modded apps from my downloads folder that i have downloaded from xda, but at the same time im new to modify android but im not toooo bad around a computer. So any help about what i may have skipped or what went wrong would be appreciated.
Thanks
I think you have to sign the new apk as well, before installing. Search the forum here how to do so...

[Q] Flashable Stock Browser file?

Hello everyone!!
So i got myself a WiFi Xoom and rooted it. By mistake uninstalled the stock browser with titanium backup and now its gone from the system. Can any of you please provide me with a flashable file so i can flash it via recovery and restore app?
I tried getting the apk from one of the system dumps on the developer section but when i try to install it i get the message "App not Installed".
did you move the apk to system/app and give it correct permissions rw/r/r?

I tried to copy the apk to the system/app folder using ES file exlorer but it does not let me, and i dont know how to set the correct permissions.
Use RootExplorer, it does all mentioned stuff
Put the apk into this file. Put it in the system/app folder and flash in recovery.

I've Lost My Browser
EDITED:::Nvmd, replaced browser.apk with the ones from system dump, as mentioned in OP, and that resolved my issue of not being able to use the stock browser.

wifirouter.apk

Actually you should be able to get it from the zip file you flashed to your phone. Use 7Zip to open the file and look around. It should be in there.
or just try this one out..
wifirouter.apk installation failure
wifirouter.apk fails to install via the normal means. After viewing the message stating that "wifirouter.apk was not installed" I found a few other places on the internet mentioning this app. One of these places suggested copying the wifirouter.apk directly to /system/app/ and setting the permissions correctly (-rw-r--r--). I have placed this wifirouter.apk file in /system/app/ via root explorer, verified permissions, and rebooted my phone but the app is still not visible. Does anyone have any ideas? I'm attempting to do this on an HTC incredible 2.
Thanks.

[Q] Failing at APK install

Was wondering if anyone could tell me the process after editing drawables with apk multi tool, The tutorial hicks was kind enough to write is for apk manager and some of the options aree different. i know this is a noob question but gotta start some where.
After i extracted apk's from a zip and edited drawables I then opened multi tool
and zipped apk's, Then I copied these files over old ones in original zip placed in my sd card and tried to flash, i got cant install zip (bad) from cwm.
anyone care to explain what im doing wrong, or what the process is after editing, im not sure what signing and zip aligning are just yet.
Forgot to compile
ok got it decompiled, edited drawables, then recompiled (didn't sign because it said not to for framework-res.apk)
this created unsignedframework-res.apk in modding folder, deleted original framework in modding folder renamed unsigned to just framework-res.apk and pushed to /system/framework through adb, then reboot phone and get stuck in boot loop crash or phone boots then evrything fc's
Any ideas on what im doin wrong? feel like im so close to getting it to work just doing something stupid in the process of re installing.

no matter what i do apk multitool says it cannot find adb
installed latest toolset with sdk manager and AVD,
Set path Variable
this is where i have it installed, same place as android sdk
C:\Users\me\Desktop\LGTheme\android-sdk\platform-tools
edit***
got it by manually pushig system apk's but now everything force closes... wondering if i messed up signing it somehow or if it has to do with it being a custom rom?

You shouldn't have to sign any of the apk's, i was actually told that signing them could prevent them from working. I also had problems pushing apks to my phone using adb, i kept getting force closes, even after rebooting. I could only get it to work by creating a flashable zip and flashing files through cwm. Why that worked over pushing it to the phone, I have no idea, but oh well.
Another thing to try is wiping cache and dalvik, until I tried that, a lot of the changes I made ro the systemui.apk didn't actually change anything.

Tried that, must be doing something wrong, i extract edit.and rezip then i have unsigned and signed in modding folder, not sure what im doing wrong from there, same thing if i decompile compile not sure what the diff is
What apk's are you Modding, and what do you have in your zip file?
Sent from my VS910 4G using xda premium
I just skimmed over this but immediately I see your adding a new file to the zip that will cause a bad zip all you need to do is create a new zip and copy all of the files in the bad zip and make the new one including your Meta inf folder and all that everything needs transferred.
Also with editing images it is not necessary to decompile extracting is fine to extract and zip after you changed what you wanted the only reason to decompile is to be able to read XML and it also let's you see boarders in the .9 images. Have you tried just pushing the apk to the phone instead of making a zip?

Cyanogenmod gallery apk

Hello,
I have uninstalled CM gallery and would like to put it back, but havent found any separate apk. Could somebody please do it for me? Or if there is a way how to make Moto Gallery delete pictures properly, it would be fine. I've tried another build, but still the same problem.
Thank you
Jakub
Unpack the rom. Go to system/app and copy the apk (itll be in the folder usually called Gallery2).
Make a zip of the apk using zip me app from play store and flash through recovery.
