I am working on a theme for my Galaxy Tablet and have run into some problems. I am still new to messing with the android platform, so excuse me if I am asking newbish questions. I have been using 7zip and apkmanager to decompile and compile my xml files. I have been successful in theming except for changing the background for the settings menu...the menu that pulls when you go to settings. I read that I needed to mess with an XML file that was called styles.xml that was inside the settings.apk and within the /res/values/ folder.
The problem is that the values folder is always disappearing...it does not show up using 7zip or winrar. The only time that I can access it is to decompile with apkmanager then it shows up in projects folder. when I make the changes and recompile it goes away.
If someone can point me in the right direction that would be great...Thanks
you cant see those files in 7zip, winrar, etc, but they are in fact there if you decompiled and recompiled the apk successfully.
Thanks for the swift reply...now I just have to figure out why I get decompile errors....

I've installed the proper framework-res.apk but still ti is giving me the same error..
Don't know what's wrong with apktool..
Please help me..
Because it has a twframework-res dependancy
Look for the syntax for depedancies or use apk manager and decompile with option 11
Then drag twframework-res (deodexed) into the window
Fyi : Wrong section

I just installed the Apktool, so I dont know if this is the apk error or Apktool installation problem, but I followed all the steps of the installation manual (wich is very simple, I really dont think that I miss something).
Someone know how to solve that?
Thanks!

Well, I get able to edit the apk. If someone get the same problem, this is what I did.
I installed the apktool v1.4.1, and adb, aapt from latest platform-tools from Android sdk. Then I get able to decompile and recompile the apk, but I cannot sign, so I copied the META-INF folder and AndroidManifest.xml from the original apk and pasted in the new one using winrar. Then pushed it back to the phone with adb.
Thanks and sorry for the bad english.

You have to install the framework first.
apktool if /system/framework/framework-res.apk
And you should use apktool 1.5.0 (google it).

i wanted to look at the ICS camera.apk to see if i could change the compressionrate for photos and bitrate for video.
yesterday i was trying all the tools available but i did not succeed to decompile the CameraApp.apk.
i deleted the *.* (file name i could not remember) from the apk that give problems while decompile the apk and after build it with 7zip still no succes with decompile.
i tryed all the tools and surfing the WWW for a solution but gave up after a couple of hours.
and yes i have installed the framework-res.apk and copy all necessary files in the right folders etc. etc. and started the programs with admin rights
this is driving me mad.

work with a dedexed rom (not Django)
GUIDE HOW TO REDUCE/INCREASE NAVIGATION BAR dpiTHIS TUTORIAL PROBABLY WILL WORK FOR ALL ANDROID DEVICES RUNNING JB
TOOLS
1. Android Multitool v2.1 from HERE (I use this one which works great and don't need everytime to type the commands)
2. Notepad++ from HERE
3. Winrar or Winzip
WHAT YOU NEED
1. Root permissions
2. Deoxeded rom
3. Framework-res.apk and the SystemUI.apk (extract them from your ROM)
4. Patience and no panic!
Procedure1. Extract Android Multitool v2.1 from the downloaded zip file and place it in Computer-> Local Disk (C: ). Now you will see a folder named AndroidMultitool.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
2. Put your Framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk in the folder Files (The one you find on AndroidMultitool).
3. Now open the AndroidMultitool.exe
4. You will see Installing Framework. Now click the ... and go to the file you had previously place framework-res.apk and click install (you have to do this procedure only for the framework-res.apk file and not the SystemUI.apk file).
5. Now you will see that a file named apktool will be created under Start->your computer's name.
6. The next thing to do is open the AndroidApktool.exe and click the ... under the Decompiling option and go to the file you had previously place framework-res.apk and click decompile.
7. Now starts the party. From AndroidApktool file, go to Decompiled_apk and you will find a folder named framework-res. Open it.
8. Go framework-res.apk -> res -> values -> dimens.xml. Now open dimens.xml using Notepad++
9.Now you will see these lines :
<dimen name="navigation_bar_height">48.0dip</dimen>
[*]
[*] <dimen name="navigation_bar_height_landscape">48.0dip</dimen>
[*]
[*] <dimen name="navigation_bar_width">42.0dip</dimen>
10. Now change the dpi values to the one you want. I personally use 36.0dip, but you can use other values if you wish
11. After setting the values you want, on the Notepad++ option, go to:
a)Edit-> EOL Conversion and check the UNIX/OSX Format.
b)Encoding and check "Encode in ANSI".
12. Now save your edited file.
13. Open AndroidMultitool and Under Compiling menu click the ... and navigate to AndroidMultitool-> Decompiled_apk-> framework-res and select the whole folder. Now Click on compile and wait.
14. The next step is to add META-INF and AndroidManifest.xml in your modified apk. To do this, go to decompiled_apk and open framework-res.apk with winrar.
15. Now go to Files and open the original framework-res.apk. Drag n' drop the META-INF folder and the AndroidManifest.xml from the original apk to the modified one.
So now you have edited succesfully your framework-res.apk
Next thing to do is Decompile the SystemUI.apk (Most of custom UI don't have to be edited since they don't have these lines; Correct me if i am wrong)
1. Go to Decompiling menu and click the ... and find the SystemUI.apk
2. Click Decompile and wait some seconds.
3. After decompiling finished, go to Decompiled_apk -> SystemUI
4. SystemUI -> res -> layout -> navigation_bar.xml and open it with Notepad++.
5. Inside the navigation_bar.xml file find the following two lines:
"@drawable/ic_sysbar_back" android:scaleType="center"
"@drawable/ic_sysbar_back_land" android:scaleType="center"
Now, delete the android:scaleType="center" from both lines.
6. Now, as you did for the framework-res.apk, go to:
a)Edit-> EOL Conversion and check the UNIX/OSX Format
b)Encoding and check "Encode in ANSI"
7. Save your file.
8. The next thing to do is Open AndroidMultitool and under Compiling menu click the ... and navigate to AndroidMultitool-> Decompiled_apk-> SystemUI and select the whole folder. Now Click on compile and wait.
9. The next step is to add META-INF and AndroidManifest.xml in your modifies apk. To do this, go to decompiled_apk and open SystemUI.apk with winrar.
10. Now go to Files and open the original SystemUI.apk. Drag n' drop the META-INF folder and the AndroidManifest.xml from the original apk to the modified one.
Now, tranfer the 2 files in your phone. Copy them and go to /system and paste them here.
Now set permissions for both files to rw-r-r.
Cut SystemUI.apk and paste it to /system/app.
Cut framework-res.apk and paste it in system/framework.
Reboot now and enjoy your own resized navbar!

But this tutorial is meant for those who want to do it by themselves.

Bro, can I resize it to 0, I don't want the nav bar to be apears, cos' my phone already has the hardkeys, but I want to keep the soft menu key in app.
Thanks!

Take a backup and then try to add this line to your build.prop qemu.hw.mainkeys=1 .
Could work this way too. Don't know if you can add as value 0 to be honest bro
Got any idea on how to change the status bar size?
Using the mod with Z1 Taskswitcher but the statusbar seems smaller than stock. :/

If I add qemu.hw.mainkeys=1 to build.prop then the 3 dots menu key will disapear, but I want to keep it without the navbar, and I can't resize to 0 because I can't recompile framework-res.apk back.
I've installed MIUI v5, and it has soft menu key enable without the navbar. but I want it on stock ROM.
Thanks!
