thx for ur help! I hv just replaced the ICS "aapt.exe" to the AutoAPKTool 2.0.0, and it works now!
I just want to mod the navigation bar, but cant recompile the framework-res even without any mod before.......
i tried recompiling the Home.apk, in the same condition i decompiled it, but it gives an error,
i installed
SemcGenericUxpRes.apk and framework-res.apk and it succesfully decompiled.
also: i tried an older version of apktool , 1.4.1 which was succesfull with some samsung phones in other threads but no success with that either
i also tried copying the latest aapt from the sdk to the apktool installation, nothing.
so if anyone has had success recompiling sony ICS apks, then help..

i thought ROM modders would have come across this error before, so, here..
edit:
@sumguyfromhell,
i have latest aapt from sdk, java jdk, jre
Seems like you have made a mistake while editing a .xml file, as it is unable to compile the file(xml files are compiled to a bit different language).

edit:
say i just want to change the values.xml, so is there a workaround maybe?

update your sdk to latest version, then copy aapt.exe from platform-tools to apktool directory, that was the fix i had found on the apktool bugtracker.
edit:you have to install frameworks again after replacing aapt

a lot of people including me are waiting for the next version of apktool just because of the errors that are met when recompiling ICS apks..
it does not accept some parts of a lot of xml files, so many need to be changed just to recompile the file, many files excluding the actual modifications we need to do..
well i am no expert at this, so i may be wrong, but my experience in trying to recompile leads me to conclude that i should wait for the next version

i'm agree with you,
i've try many ways but its always end with no luck..
that's doesn't matter my bro,
i also hope for new version / way that will works perfectly,
thanks for ur answer..
Hey, please don't ignore this problem. Every project I started is stopped by this error, I can't fix many of my roms because of it. I can't continue my work so please help me. Don't think I am another one person who has no idea what he is doing, I have some experience in porting but no one wants help me.
I have done many ports for my LG Swift and now I started developement for Xperia J.
But I'm struggling with error that doesn't allow me to fix the worse bugs in my ports.
The situation:
I have succesfull decompiled, patched and compiled framework.jar for my MIUI5 port, same with LiGux, MIUI4 and many others.
But when I try to fix Phone.apk ( values/bools.xml ) then it gives me this error when smailing (no matter which rom I'm poring):

This error appears with MIUI, Lewa, LiGux, every rom I try to port.
YES! I remember about if framework-res.apk and if ANY_ADDIITONAL_FRAMEWORK_HERE.apk
I tried to recompile those Phone.apk's on Ubuntu too but still the same error.
I have tried many versions of apktool, I have tried various tools for recompiling, I have tried to do it manually too.
I never works, always the same error.
Please help me with this, I can't finish most of my ports beacuse of it : (

not the apktool i meant the AAPT
The same, the newest version from this site: http://code.google.com/p/android-apktool/
The phone apk has been a problem for awhile now. It can't be recompiled by any means at the moment and needs to be built from source.
Wayne Tech Nexus
So how can I build it from source? For MIUI5, LiGux ?

For MIUI you cant. and if the other one doesnt provide source then you cant from them either.
Great,,, so there is no ability to fix not working micro in my LiGux port and Unlock Sim Code in Xperia MIUI port :/
Use miui's apktool: https://github.com/MiCode/patchrom_tools/blob/jellybean/aapt.exe and https://github.com/MiCode/patchrom_tools/blob/jellybean/apktool.jar
apktool d -t miui -f Phone.apk
apktool b -f Phone unsigned-Phone.apk

Thanks, will try
Phone.apk
For Phone.apk, you will encounter a lot of errors on the recompile thanks to bad XML files in a few languages. The key here is to read the errors and correct them. Essentially there are the following problems with strings:
Strings that were broken onto multiple lines. Make them on one line.
For the above lines, remove the extra double quotes that are on the inside of the ><.
Look for apostrophes and put a \ in front of them.
Lastly there will be a bunch of lines with variable replacement codes in them like %1$d. These are all just text strings for some kind of error messages. Seems to be problems with all the stuff surrounding throttling. I simply removed the codes as I don't really care about such messages. Wish I understood the variables better but again, these were very limited messages and I don't see this as a major issue.
There is a lot to clean up, but don't let anyone tell you that this cannot be done because it most certainly can.
I am looking for help with APKTool. I have tried using the current stable version, as well as the 2.x beta. Both with same result. I am even using the dependancies on the official google code site.

Error log says could not find resources. It means you have not installed framework-res.apk (in case of Samsung Touchwiz phones install twframework also).
Solution :-
Pull framwork-red.apk and for Samsung TW phones pull twframawork-res.apk and put it where you keep files in apktool.
If you are using APK Multitool with GUI, then first button is for installing framework.
If you are using command line apktool, type
Code:
apktool if framework-res.apk
to install framework.
Then decompile and recompile.
Press Thanks if helped

This did not help
Code:
C:\Development\android>apktool.bat if framework-res.apk
I: Framework installed to: C:\Users\Shannon\apktool\framework\1.apk
................................................................
Try with Android Multitool.
If it does not work give me that apk and framework. I will try to decompile it.
Wait........ Is it a 3rd party app? (I mean not a system app?)
Then it might be possible that developer is using some other resources, different than in your framework.

Thanks, but it didn't help. I will keep the tool, ask my girlfriend to look over the log when there is time, but so far, still an error. I have not been able to recompile.
It is a system app. I modified one file to enable calls on my TF300TG. I have included 7zip files of the apk, and of the values folder. The values folder goes inside the res folder of the decompiled apk, before recompiling. If you could recompile for me, I will give you all the cookies!

You did not tell me you had JellyBean. I found it when I took a look at framework-res.apk manifest.
There is some problem with decompiling and recompiling JB Framework. (No problem for other apks)
So I did a bit searching and I found this
monstaX said:
Grab an ICS framework-res apk. Replace manifest resources.arsc and res from the ICS apk with the one from jb apk. Then dexompile with apktool142.jar and then edit. Then recompile with apktoll144.jar. then open the apk that recompiled and take out manifest resources.arsc and res and place back in jb framework sorry if its to confusing. But just a quick write up

I thank you for your assistance. I will take a look at the link when I get home. I know it might be asking a lot, but would it be possible for you to make the required resources.arsc for me? Basically, I only need two variabls in bools.xml changed. I have attached my bools.xml file.
If you are able to, I greatly appreciate the help. Hell, I greatly appreciate the help anyway. This stuff is a little beyond my current knowledge pool though.
is this proble solved? you want recompiled system file like systemui.apk?
try to delete folder "values-mcc9989-mnc999" in your decopile folder /res/here
press thanks button if i helped you
Problem while decompiling SystemUI.apk
I can decompile framework-res.apk but i cant able to decompile SystemUI.apk 4.2.2.
Any Solution???
thanks in advance
Hello all. Need some of your expert advice ASAP!
I'm very familiar with using APKTool and Compiling/Decompiling Apps. I've run into a problem with the framework-res and SystemUI apps.
Current ROM/App info:
Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 8.0
Android 4.2.2 (Samsung Touchwiz)
Framework Installed in APKTool: framework-res.apk, twframework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk
APKTool Version: 2.0 (I've tried almost every version of APKTool and AAPT)
Java Version: 1.7 (as required by APKTool 2.0)
OS: Windows and Linux (same results on each OS)
The framework and SystemUI apps decompile fine. No errors and all the XML/Smali files are perfect. The problem is that I can not recompile either of them. Each time I attempt, I get the same error regarding the Android Manifest file....

I have spent the past 6 hours searching and reading for possible solutions and nothing has worked. I know some dev's have been able to sucessfully compile these apps (even though MANY people have had this exact same problem).
Can anyone provide any assistance on what the fix/workaround is to get these apps compiled? FYI - I have even tried compiling the stock apps without any mods and I get the same errors.
Let me know if you need further clarification on my situation. And please, only respond if you have a known solution. I have speculated all day and chased every possible hunch.
Thanks in advance!!!!

I have tried everything possible. I'm going to set up a separate dev environment with some different tools/drivers and see if that has any effect.

I'm having the exact same problem for modding a keyboard. I have my JAVA PATH set to correct Java JDK location; correct paths set to android SDK files, which were placed in C:\windows (per advise for this problem). Also tried different APKTools. Nothing works
