decompile SystemUI.apk - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys,
I have a problem with my System.UI. I can't decompile it because I obtain always an error...in every programs (Tickle,Multitool...). I want to edit lines in .xml for my custom ROM.
However, with the Framework-res.apk or settings-apk it works perfectly. I don't understand...
So If someone could help me decompiling System-UI.apk with other method, I'd be very grateful to him
Of course I join two files (framework-res.apk and systemUI.apk) in attachment.
Thanks really
Bests regards

Nobody... ?

I have same problem. Hope to someone can help.????

Post the error log and maybe someone will help you. Posting the apks does nothing really.
Also if your making a custom rom but cant fix a simple error then you might want to rethink things.
Also if your building a custom rom then just edit the source before to compile the build.

Finally it works. Why ? I don't know lol
Maybe it is :
-I took systemUI.apk from stock ROM (yes i changed apk from stock ROM to try)
-or I deleted mediatek-res.apk of folder names ''other'' of APKmultitool

[Q] How to compile .apk?

I'm a graphic designer and I'd love to start making themes for the SGS2 but I don't know how to create the APKs, specifically, the SystemUI.apk. I've read up about it but haven't found anything helpful.
Could someone write a guide on how to do it or give me a link to one?
Could i recomend looking at VRTheme, see this post and this post, this way you dont have to build apks in the traditional sense.
You will want apktool to decompile apks, then edit, then use it again to recompile.

is it possible SystemUI can NOT be recompiled due to some omitted frameworks/files?
Hi.
I hope somebody experienced in MTK modding can shed some light on my problems, cause I'm out of ideas..
I can't find a way to successfully recompile either framework-res or System UI in a "no-name" ROM on a MTK device (6572). I'm not an expert in modding, but I know my way around this subject and have successfully disassembled, modded and reassembled many MTK (and other) ROMs so far.. however - this one I just can't recompile w/o errors like this:
systemUI.mod/SystemUI/res/layout/system_bar_notification_panel_title.xml:14: error: Error: No resource found that matches the given name (at 'style' with value '@style/SystemBarNotificationText').

Ofc I installed all available (?) frameworks (in my case 2 apks in /system/frameworks: framework-res.apk and mediatek-res.apk, tried as many available tools as I could find here on XDA (automated, manual, different apktool versions, etc), but nothing "works". I've also scouted the whole file system for any additional, hidden, resources, but could locate nothing.
So - I can decompile anything, but can not successfully recompile none of the "system resources" (systemui, framework-res, mediatek-res).. my question is this - is it possible that these resources, that aapt is reporting missing, are actually omitted (missing) from the ROM?

[Q] Modifying Smali Code and recompile it.

I have read all the threads on the topic of decompiling APK file and recompiling it, and so far I am successful in decompiling and recompiling it.And now I want to make some changes in smali files like change package name and remove some features, But I don't know smali language, so Is there a way that I can convert smali files into Android JAVA project which I can import into Eclipse or I must have to learn smali language to achieve what I want.
Thanks in Advance

It can be done with smali also ....
Only thing is you need to be tricky ....[emoji6]
Am not writing the procedure here coz changing package name doesn't sounds good for me [emoji1] I always respect efforts of original developers (some kangers always do change name and remove some features and claim the apk as theirs in generally am saying don't get hurted )
So I just want to confirm that changing package name and removing some features is possible via smali editing no need to convert the apk to java source .......
