Did you install the required framework.apk/twframework.apk using "apktool -if" first?

get your framework-res.apk from the /framework folder and install it using
Code:
apktool -if framework-res.apk
Then, you will be able to decompile "Settings.apk"

In short:
1. De-odex SystemUI.apk (baksmali)
2. Apply mod or send me the de-odexed SystemUI.apk
3. Odex again (i am attaching script to ODEX), just put the modded SystemUI.apk in "/sdcard/app" and run this script with ADB connection. The odexed files will be in the same folder, just push via recovery.

TUTORIAL
You need edit framework2.jar and download modded MyFiles.apk
then extract classes.dex from framework2.jar using 7zip or something
and then -decompile your classes.dex using baksmali.jar [java -jar baksmali.jar classes.dex]
you'll get "out" folder after this .
download framework2.jar-samsungmodbydogaoz
copy everything inside of "out" folder to your "out" folder [IMPORTANT : probably you'll see (do you want change this file ..blabla..? ) no to all don't change same files..because we are only getting samsung frameworks]
and then compile classes.dex again [java -jar smali.jar out]
and then rename out.dex to classes.dex and copy classes.dex to your framework2.jar using 7zip or something
push your framework2.jar to your system/framework [adb remount -- adb push framework2.jar /system/framework ] DON'T FORGET BACKUP.PLEASE DO BACKUP BEFORE DOING THIS
Finally, Download SecNoteMyFiles-moddedbydogaoz.apk and push to your system/app using adb [adb remount -- adb push SecNoteMyFiles-moddedbydogaoz.apk /system/app]

But i don't think it will work on CM10.
because there are too many error , not only Smali_classes\android\plugin\dsds\
Here is another error list (I can't catch full error logs because of too long)
Edit: Full error logs show me almost everywhere the smali i put in has trouble.

I'm trying to port this to android 4.2.2 (cm10.1) but it doesn't have framework2.jar. I tried pushing the apk but logcat complains about missing "sec_feature" library. Any suggestions on how to fix that?

can i use this method on my cm11??

want to use this for kitkat
cm based roms mahn!!!
please do help...i tried...and decompiled and didnt find out folder(i know its noobish coz there are so many changes after years made in framework.)

Are you trying to edit xml files from within an apk?
If so you need to decompile the apk with apktool first then you can open the xml file in notepad

I have already given you the answer - please read it
you can not simply unzip an apk with win zip and open an xml file - you will get random symbols
you MUST decompile the apk with apktool!!!
Once you have decompiled the apk you can then open and edit the xml files inside the apk
once done you recompile the apk
I repeat - look at my apktool guide in my signature!

I already decompile this apk than i open the .xml file!!!

You haven't installed apktool correctly then - you need to place the files in your windows system
follow the instructions how to install/where to place the apktool files on the apktool website
you need to read instructions carefully - if you don't read all information on the website you will not succeed

Sorry ..
I type cd nt cd..
This prob. Is solved but
When i type
Apktool if c:\framework-res.apk n hit enter..
Its says ..
Could not open c:\program files\java\jre7\i386\jvm.cfg
Whats this prob.!!?

If you install apktool & java development tools (jdk) which is different from java runtime environment you would not be facing such problems

IMPORTANT :- My imbox is overflowing with PMs, please keep sending them but understand that I won't be able to reply immediately.
We all know FlappyBird that super irritating bird crashing into every obstacle it sees. Since FlappyDoge was released I am sure some of you decompiled that apk and snooped around a bit. I made this thread for the less advance users who haven't had the guts to do that! Think how cool it would be to show your friends your version of Flappy____ that has your face on it!
I've created some elements in Photoshop ( and attached the psd's ) so that you find editing the game even easier.
Here is an example I quickly did ( Really quickly ) :
Tutorial:
1. Decompile:
First off download the original FlappyBird Here
Then decompile it with this tutorial
Code:
C:\[B]Path to apktool[/B]>apktool d "Original FlappyBird.apk" workspace
2. Graphics:
Now we get to the actual modding, download my zip here. In there is a font folder, open that up and install the font.
Unzip then navigate to assets/gfx - This folder contains most of the Graphic elements of FlappyBird. ( The birds, Buttons, Score etc. )
In there is two files, a psd and png, open the atlas.psd in Photoshop and edit away, I categorized the parts already. Note:- If you don't have Photoshop, you can edit the png, it will be a little bit harder though.
Copy the "atlas.png" to the assets/gfx of the decompiled apk.
3. Splash:
In my Zip, navigate to drawable - Once again there is a psd and png file, edit as you like.
Copy the "splash.png" to /res/drawable of the decompiled apk.
4. Icon:
The folders: drawable-640dpi ; drawable-mdpi ; drawable-xhdpi ; drawable-xxhdpi contains different sizes of icons.
Edit them as you like, again there is psds and pngs. - You can easily change the color gradient in Photoshop!
Copy all the ic_launcher.png files to their corresponding folders in the decompiled apps /res directory.
5. App Name and Others:
In my Zip, navigate to /values in there is a strings.xml open it with your choice of advanced text editor ( e.g. Notepad++ ).
To change the app name, edit the following line:
Code:
<string name="app_name">Flappy Pulse</string>
Then copy the strings.xml to the decompiled apk's /res/values/ folder.
6. Recompile & Sign:
Again recompile using My guide.
Code:
C:\[B]Path to apktool[/B]>apktool b workspace Flappy[B]Example[/B].apk
Remember to sign your app otherwise it wont' install! - I always use Zipsigner
________________________________
That should do it! Hope you learned some things and had fun, enjoy raging at your own personalized Flappy_____
Thanks to @holabola for indirectly giving me the idea.

Reserved to showcase some Flappybird mods, mention me @PulseDroid if you want your mod here. Also feel free to request any mods.
NOTE:- Do NOT request a mod that removes the ads, that is seen as warez.

u can also do this without decompiling but then u wont change title of app

Yip, but whats a mod without changing the name
Also, the PSD's are remakes of the icon backgrounds and such so its' a bit easier.

Awesome job Glad to finally see a tutorial up. I think I may make a thread when I get home to host everyone's mods. Would anyone be interested in that?

Yes, in the smali there is entries referring to the ogg sound files, use normal mp3 files and refer to them in the smali.
Can't remember path exactly will check tomorrow and add it to the thread.

If you don't have Photoshop you can use Krita or GIMP. They can open most PSD files perfectly and they are both free
Anyway thanks for the file, I think it is easier to edit

I myself use Gimp 2.8 with a Photoshop CS6 theme, Photoshop shortcuts, Single-Window mode and the Photoshop Plugin Installer. With all of that it is far superior to Photoshop in terms of usefulness and size.
I'm working on a mod now. @PulseDroid do you mind if we put up the modified .apk files here?
EDIT: Lol, I completely forgot about the second post.

This is interesting, kinda seems like cheating

How do I remove the ads from the APK?

that would probably be a violation of some sort...

Virtuous Ten Studio is easier to use! You should have a guide for that

That is usually seen as warez. Although I don't know how it works after the app is taken down from the app store.
@jerbear294 @nastys
Hey guys, I don't know much about GIMP so bear with me. If you open up a PSD does it also show the rulers? Could you maybe provide me a screenshot of how it looks when you open my PSD?

Don't forget to hit Thanks and Rate this thread button if you find it useful! :angel:
Hello Friends!
I am here to share an Awesome Utility for our Great Themers who can now edit .apk files on the device itself!
This is the APKTool which can run on android itself!
Some features like:
Decompile dex files
Decompile apk
Sign Apk
Make Odex
Zipalign
Extracting META-INF
dex2jar
jar2dex
Creating ROM Dump of current Rom
Are available in this app!
It works quiet good on my XSola, but I am sure It will run smoothly on devices with good amount of RAM! :good:
Here are few previews of the app:
Previews:

"lightbox_next": "Next",

"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

}
Downloads:
Download APKTool For Android! v4.4
Download APKTool For Android v4.3 (Old Version)
Instructions:
- Download apktool4.4_armhf.zip (recommended version) ( ~50MB ).
- Extract the zip to your preferred location.
- Install apktool.apk (Or similar name) from the zip file.
- Open the App, Navigate to the folder you have extracted the zip, long press it and select set as apktool data folder.
- Now navigate to /system/framework -> Tap on framework-res.apk -> Select 'import as framework' (This will be imported as framework 1)
-Tap on SemcGenericResUxp.apk and again select 'import as framework' (This will be imported as framework 2)
The tool extracts the app to the folder wherever the app is! So please do not extract any app directly through /system folder! :good:
ENJOY THE REST!
Good Luck! :good:

This is not the full apktool and @cpkunki is not the maker of the app. As mentioned, this app does not decompile and compile properly as it is missing sony framework tables.

You should install framework related apps then recompile ...
But i think there isn't anyway to do it !
Thanks for the share was looking for it

I am so sorry @Chocklety Boyee , but as @AndroidNoob69 said, I have not created this app or I do not know how to debug things because I am still a learner on XDA.
I asked one of my friend, (A Samsung user) he said try putting the app in the /system folder and decompile it.
I did that before posting this thread. Yes it got decompiled, but the problem was that I couldn't delete the folder where the app was decompiled, only its contents got deleted.
Try doing the same, but please make a backup before doing so :fingers-crossed:. Don't blame me .
And do tell me the results.

@abo hani, glad you liked it.

For that you can use any all in one File manager like this one
Or if you just want an XML editor, you can search on play store,
you will get these:
Axel (XML Editor / Viewer)
XML Editor
And so on..

The apk is not working after edit with xml editer

I encourage you guys not to use apktool on phones. It is and is never the full version. It is missing framework files and there is no way you can install them.

Wait bro!
Did you follow the instructions correctly?
Especially this one - Open the App, Navigate to the folder you have extracted the zip, long press it and select set as apktool data folder ?
And also, this IS working on phones like Xperia Z. Because @Rajeev bro was able to add his own Banner, 'Developer Name' in About Phone in Settings!
And also, the main developer is not mad to create such a project in Google code and on GitHub. :silly:

I used this app in ma mobile.. I already told u that i created 3 mods using this app.. One is Rom name under About Phone setting, second one is full transparent caller screen and third one is systemui transparency...
