How would I install the Addons, ie. the clock and lockscreen, for the MIUI Theme ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1189723 ) onto my phone correctly.
I already have the theme itself installed, but with the Clock and lockscreen I have to replace files in the framework apk and the deskclock apk... and that's where I get lost, which files do I replace?? I tried it once with the framework and tried to replace the framework apk on my phone with my "edited" one and it got me stuck in a bootloop, so I just re-flashed cm7 to get out of it. With the deskclock, I tried replacing and installing it onto my phone, but no app came up :/ any ideas?

I recently flashed a rom with some AOSP elements and while I am loving most of it, I would like to reinstall the touchwiz clock and calendar apps. I tried pushing the .apks to system\app with root explorer but I still can't get it working. after moving the .apks to system\app I clicked on them to attempt installation but after the installation starts it stops and says "application not installed". I have also moved the .odex files to system\app but I can't get it to work.
I have been able to find several threads talking about removing the TW calendar and clock to replace with stock, but not the other way around lol. any help would be appreciated.
I've spent the last 4 hours trying to theme Pandora but I haven't been successful so far. Original I started with the already themed version that came with my ROM and tried to add to it. I created new play, pause, etc. images and changed some background images. All images are the same dimensions as the original ones.
Previously I haven't had any problems adding my own personal touches to apps, framework, or what have you to my phone. I usually just change apk to zip, unzip and change whatever images I need. Then I rezip using the store setting and change the zip back to apk. I tried this first with Pandora and it wouldn't work. I pushed the apk to my phone but it wouldn't install. I tried to install it manually from the sdcard but not love there either. It would do the whole process then tell me 'Application not installed' at the end.
So next I tried using APKTool to decompile the apk. I replaced the images with my custom images then built the apk via APKTool. Tried to install it again and it still wouldn't work.
As a last ditch effort, I tried to theme the current version of Pandora on the market with my images but that didn't work. I've tried using SignAPK but no cigar. No matter what I do, I can't get my version to install.
Anyone have any ideas? Thanks.
Problem Solved!!!
I tried doing an adb install and ending up getting 'install parse failed no certificates' error. I must of broke the original signature by editing the apk. I've never had that happen before though. I couldn't resign the apk via SignAPK because there was a conflict of signatures.
Found this thread and was able to resign the apk.

hey XDAs,
i got a arc launcher that already comes with a themed dock.
now i wanted to change the dock and i got this folders where i replaced this file with another .png of the same size.
when i try to install the launcher i get "application not installed" error.
do i need to change more than just the icon or what did i wrong?
so....nobody?
got the same error with app icons, too.
Should work if not you could try to recompile the apk with new png.
How did u install it? Flash via CWM or copy over?
1. Did u remove previous version first? Must be done first unless your flashing via cwm.
2. Also with framework dependancies etc remove any arc widgets prior to installing, install arc launcher then reinstall or copy over widgets again.

hey,

Hi I just took out the apk for go sms then changed the android smileys in 7-zip on windows, I changed the icons to 24 x 24 pixels png files. Then put the apk back on my phone, into data/app on my phone memory. It copies fine changed the permissions, but the app won't run, I even tried installing the apk, but it says application not installed after trying. What am I doing wrong?
sorry figured it out, had to change the owner of the app in root explorer for it to work :-D
Sir, howd you change owner? what should i choose? ive tried to change but it says it cant change.. i wanted to replace go sms icon.
