iirc clock color is in services.jar. you'll need to baksmali it, edit the relevant file, and compile it again (smali).
I believe you need to resign the framework-res.apk again once you have compiled it.

It depends on what version of Android you're on. If you're on Gingerbread or above, decompile SystemUI.apk and look at res/layout/status_bar.xml.
If your clock has its own individual line of code, you can add this parameter:
Code:
android:TextColor="#00ffffff"
This will make the clock a pure white colour.

Before Decompile framework has 6 MB , After Decompile, Edit It have 4 MB - Why?

It gets compressed when you re-compile it. You should take out the resources.arsc, rename the apk to framework-res.zip, then add the resources.arsc with no compression (store mode) - rename it back to framework-res.apk..

If you're using 7zip, you don't need to rename the apk. Just extract and add. I know it only saves a few seconds but every little bit counts!

OK. Out of the framework .apk THAT YOU UNZIPPED, take the resources file, and the res folder (the whole folder; in which u made the changes) and "inject" (put them inside of) them into the ORIGINAL/UNZIPPED .apk. open the original .apk, drag the modified res folder and the resourses file and drop them into the original apk. U should b prompted as to whether u want to replace the existing files, say yes. Otherwise it might just replace them without asking for confirmation. Make sure that the files were properly transfered. Now take that UNZIPPED .apk that u just put those files in, and place it on the root of your SD card.
Use a file explorer to navigate to the apk on ur SD card, and put that in place of the one that's on ur phone. Make sure u give it the permissions that it needs.

I don't know if that will do it for sure or not. I have to use that way when I'm theming 4.1.1
I don't know how well it'll translate back to froyo, but the method SHOULD work...theoretically. good luck :thumbup:

That's the thread I use for de/compile of apks. Should work for any apk, and the way its done, it SHOULD work for any version JB and below (I would think).
and as for changing your clock color, that would have to do with de/compile of of framework-res.apk.

A little question here. I'm on 4.0.4 rooted and with unlocked boot.
I want to remove the “AM/PM” in the clock area when is at 12hrs format.
I tried modifying a file in SystemUI.apk\smali\com\android\systemui\statusbar\policy called “Clock.smali”.
The line exactly said “.local v5, amPmStyle: I”, I deleted the value and flashed it back to my device and doesn't worked, it shows AM/PM again.
Maybe I'm at the wrong .smali file? Can you give me a hand? I know if I use 24hrs format it wouldn't show AM/PM, but I'm from Venezuela, here we use 12hrs format.

I don't know for sure, but instead of just deleting the value, try replacing the 1 with a 0....I don't know the android system in and out yet, so I'm not sure if ur even attacking the right file. But that sounds like a place I would try, but I would try it with a dif value, not just deleting it...

Just pull the 1 zip or 2 zips from the rom, & explore for you're self, I think its the system ui but could be wrong, I'm not near my computer at the moment to check so I can't say exactly which one it is? If you're gonna mod the battery icons you're gonna look inside anyway & I takes like 10secs to extract & search the apk? If you don't wanna do that, there are various apps in the playstore you can download for free to look at the framework pics from inside the apks without opening them! Hope this helps.... press thanks if it did

As Maarten already pointed out SystemUI.apk and framework-res.apk. And if you want to use them in apktool you'll also need com.htc.resources.apk.
Just out of curiosity: are you going to use UOT or apktool? Been trying to change status bar clock colour on half-sense and fulmix (see my post in his thread) with apktool but haven't succeeded yet.
What are your plans on theming?
Just pull the zips & open using winrar? Thts what I've been doing for around 4yrs now

It gives you this errors because there is classes.dex file on it. Delete it and than decompile.

Open with WinRAR or 7-Zip delete classes.dex and than decompile with apktool.
Note: you do not have to extract apk to delete classes.dex file.

Make a SystemUI.apk without classes.dex and put that in you ROM and release to all users to test. If it works, I will resign from making ROMs.

SystemUI must have classes.dex; there is where all the instructions (the smali files) come from for the apk to work. Like what to run for the EQS and many more.
As mentioned on the link given above
Code:
b) If you are using apkmanager, you can just export classes.dex, then delete classes inside the apk. Then decompile, edit, compile and add classes.dex back when ready.

[REQ] Help with edit SemcGenericUxpRes

hi, can anyone replace icons from archive to apk in archive ? http://www64.zippyshare.com/v/52683022/file.html because when I'm doing it and changing this app in system/app icons are stretched, I changed icons via WinRar because when I'm trying to de/recompile this app via apk tool and other similar applications I have errors and can't do it properly
regards
Yes... But I need the original .pngs (those are from a decompiled .apk) - you can obtain them easy just unzip that .apk using "7 zip". And the framework-res.apk from the same folder (framework) as SemcGenericUxpRes.apk you are trying to modify (because I need to install it in my "APK Multi-Tool", otherwise I can't recompile the .apk)
so here is my framework and original icons http://www16.zippyshare.com/v/11770168/file.html
XperienceD said:
Quick Tip: If all you want to do is edit or replace normal images, things like your Status Bar icons or Menu icons like those used in the main screen of Settings then decompiling IS NOT necessary, simply open the apk in a zip program then just drag and drop any replacement images in to the correct folder, for images like your actual Status Bar which may have a .9 at the end then decompiling IS required.
Note: It's important to use STORE as the compression method when replacing images in the apk.
Also Note: .9 pngs need to be edited ONLY when in the decompiled folder, if you just take a .9 png and edit it then you won't be able to see the borders that the system needs to determine how that image should be displayed. I have included links at the end of this post to help with .9 editing along with links to other various theming resources that I've come across and bookmarked.

All of this you need if you want to use VTS.
That is good base for start and understand this process (and works with kitkat).
And for virtuos ten studio, first you MUST read tutorials at this page: http://virtuous-ten-studio.com/, but if you don't understand base of whole process, VTS is useless.

I think we can decompile and compile apk via any root browser (Extract to decomplie and zip to compile).
Do you know a link where I can get notification bar icons from G3.
Thank you

I dont know where you take only icons, you must take it by yourself from LGSystemUI, or framework-res from original G3 rom.
Try to extract from here: https://app.box.com/s/m0tvrwabte4x6lyc2la1, if they look like in attached pic.
Or try to search or ask someone on G3 forum.

It unpacks in AIK without issues running 64-bit Ubuntu 16.04. You are probably right and just missing a dependency that comes pre-installed in Debian based systems. Let me know if you figure out a way to deal with it
edit: do you have cpio installed? If not that may solve the issue

For multi languages its usually built into the ROM. Fixing gapps depends on what's wrong with it.
When you extract your rom what gapps are you trying to fix?

If you have a custom ROM build without gapps then grab a version perspective to your device too flash in recovery
To add multi languages (depending on the ROM) I would look around on XDA.. I haven't ever heard of multi language..

I'm trying to make an deodexed rom for an S8+.
I can't get it it start. it boots but stucks at samsung logo.
so, what are the right way to make an deodexed rom?
thanks in advance
Hey @SuperR. I have a general apktool question.
I want to make some SystemUI mods for my ROM.
When recompiling SystemUI does it need to be signed, zipaligned, or both?
Your tool is awesome btw.

I am not the best to answer this honestly. I have not modified an apk since KitKat. The plugin is there for people such as yourself who want to use it. It has all the signing options I am aware of. If you don't get any other answers, I suggest trying them all to see what works for you

For system apps, I use winrar, or if using linux the default archive manager, to move the modified files into the original. I try to keep the meta-inf, sec-inf, and androidmanifest.xml intact on the original app and just drag the res, classes.dex (if modifying smali), and resources.arsc into the original. Then just zipalign.
Thats worked for me on 6.0.1, I think some things may have changed with 7.0.1 and I'm by no means an expert but thats how I do it.

So would it be like this:
1) Install frameworks
2) Decompile apk
3) Make modifications
4) Rename APK file to .zip to allow for pasting res and resources.arsc
5) Paste modified res and resources.arsc into the zip archive.
6) Rename the zip archive back to an apk file.
7) Push apk to /system/priv-app/SystemUI/SystemUI.apk.
8) Perform chmod 0644 on the apk.
I'm a complete noob at this so I want to make sure I'm doing everything right.

Yep, that's how I do it. Except you dont have to rename your apk files, they'll open up in archive just like a zip. With jar files I just push without having to drag anything to the original and they'll work.
If you ever decide to modify the framework-res or certain system apps like secsettings, camera, contacts, and probably some others, I have to do those with Windows and winrar because they dont seem to work with the normal compression mode. Winrar lets you change the compression mode from normal to store. Thats the only I can get those working.
