[Q]Recompiling Settings.apk

Hi, basically I'm trying to modify the Settings.apk of the newest JVQ-Rom.
I want to delete unneeded languages, optimize pngs and so on...
The problem is, even if i change nothing and recompile the apk with apktool after decompiling it and put it into system/app. The Settings Application won't start.
I also tried it with apkmanager 4.9 and 4.8 decompile with depencies and dragging framework-res.apk in. No luck so far. After compiling again, this thing won't start. Can anyone help me with this plz?
Thanks

[Q]Bootloop after recompiling FW 140 framework-res.apk ( how reslove ? )

Hi everyone. I have experienced about bootloop after recompiled framework-res.apk that based from Latest firmware 9.1.A.1.140. I'm trying to decompile framework-res, then I used apktool and Install both frameworks ( framework-res.apk and semcgenericuxpres.apk ) then, I decompiled. After that, I EDITED SOME XMLS LIKE STRING.XML. AFTER THAT I RECOMPILED AND GOT SUCCESS. THEN I TOOK resources.arsc from modded FW and I copied into original framework-res.apk ( compression normal ). Then I copied into SD card. I wiped cache and dalvik then Install it. After I installed, I got BOOTLOOP
PLEASE ANY SOLUTION !!

Only way is binary editing, and that's complicated.

LGSettings3_1 apk decompiling and recompiling error

Welcome all,
I wanted to edit something in the strings.xml file after installing the framework apk and lg-res and after decompiling and editing what I want and then recompiling and copying META-INF folder and Androidmanifest file to the new compiled apk file then signing the apk file and then copying it to system/app when restarting the phone works normally but when trying to open the settings from the launcher the launcher FCs and when trying from the Status Bar the SystemUI FCs
btw I'm using IZS updated version
After that when I doubted my work
I did the previous steps but without changing any thing in the files just decompiling/compiling the files and signing and copying it
AND when I restarted the same problem happened so Does that mean I did something wrong or installing files was wrong or what ??
Thnx all

Need help with apktool

Hello I am trying to work on a mod for rom I am working on. But the warnings I am getting happen even with untouched files.
I am editing the Secsettings.apk.
I am able to decompile it just fine with apktool 2.0.0 but compiling is another story. I install framework-res.apk and even installed twframework-res.apk. but this is what I get with unedited secsettings. I get same results when I do my edits.
I am doing
apktool b SecSettings
It is putting files in the build file
Is this ok?

Those are only warnings. Looks like it built apk from the last line.
