Moto added signatures to each apk in /system. After you re-compile the apk, you need to open both with an archive manager, and copy the META-INF folder from the old to the new.

hello friend,thank you for your reply.i understand for your answer,i also have tried this way.there are many ways of dealing with system-level APK file,i have tried most of it,every files are normal,including framework-res.apk.but the framework-res.apk didn't work well
more curious,using apktool to compile the blur-res.apk,but Decompilate it again will occur error.apktool says there is lacking some values.can you please tell me how to fix it??

I can't get multitool to work

I've been trying all ****ing day to get it to work and this is as far as I have gotten. The only reason I changed to it from apk manager was that apk manager wouldn't let me recompile a jellybean app. Any ideas? The main thing tripping me up I think is that I'm using the stupid adt bundle but I can't seem to find SDK without out so it's all wonky and I have no idea what I'm doing anymore. It's been 7 hours and a lot of problems.

[Q] Compile and Decompile troubleshoot corrupt PNGs

When descompilo a file, for example SystemUI to make changes as I appear more PNG files damaged.
I would like you to tell me exact steps and easy to understand information about:
- Start decompilation of apps (although I know)
- Once the modifications have been made preferred, how to proceed to repair the PNG files that descompilaron and were wrong.
- And Back to compile (also know).
Thanks at all!

Hi,
a bit more information is needed.
How did you decompile ?
Program used for decompile ?
Did you install Framework ?
Which File ?
Which ROM ?
Did you get errors on .9.png Files ?
regards
Michael

If you're only changing pngs you don't have to decompile!
As mkruseonline said, give us some additional info and we'll help you

Try this:
- Decompile
- Make only the xml changes you wanna do
- Recompile your apk
- Now open with WinRAR/7zip the two SystemUI.apks (the old one and the new) - only open them,do not extract
- Paste you new resources.arsc in the old SystemUI.apk, then you can close the new one and focus on the old one with modified resources.arsc
- Navigate to drawable-hdpi and simply paste all your pngs and .9.pngs
- Close the apk, push it to your phone/ROM and you should be done

Hi CrashOverride93,
ENOX apk's can not be decompiled so easy, trust me.
I used APK Multitool Point 9 for decompiling (without dependencies)
But dariolob Way may work also.

Can't use UOT kitchen to add mod (using StockRom Evolution)

So, I tried to use UOT kitchen to add battery percentage to my phone. I have StockRom evolution because it's the fastest ROM and it my battery last longer with it but I'd like to be able to modify it with UOT kitchen. I tried to upload framework-res.apk, SystemUI.apk and twframework-res.apk from the phone to the Kitchen but then, when I try to pick up the completed file, it tells me that it failed because of an SHTF error...

I solved the 9patch chunk error using xUltimate-9patch, now I just have to solve the Java error. I'm still trying to find out how to add the path environment variable...

For android-4.4 system apps to decompile u need Java 7 and apktools 2.0. Java 8 is not supported in android and afaik apktools lower than 2.0 don't work.

Thank you for your advice. I didn't know it. It works for me now.
I was little bit confused because I was able to decompile the framework from your CM11 without problems and framework from stock ROM don't.
