Is there a tutorial for resizing APK's on windows ive read a few threads about it but all of them look like LINUX based i think i have all the software i need but im lost because when i try to decompile the apk i want to resize i cant view the xml or smali files am i doing something wrong??i use brutt.all's apktool and apk manager 5.0
after decompiling the project is moved to the projects folder for you to work on, use something like notebook++ to do the editing works fine like this for me.
Do you mean NOTEPAD++??
Maybe......... lol

thanks and what values do i need to change to resize an apk for the wildfire??
Check this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=697994
ive read that tutorial and the paths it tells me to navigate to are not the same am i missing something
Yeah, beacause this is tutorial on how to resize rosie and change the workspace size, from 4x4 to 5x5. This is just a suggestion on how to resize something. If you want to resize some apps, you should decompile a file, and change every value from MDPI to LDPI. Basically, you have to multiply every value with 0.75. For example, you have value 100px so after you multiply it will be 75px and so on.
so will i have to do that for all APK's the reason i ask is that i want to resize a wildfire s rom to a wildfire VigiDroid has taken over SFM 1.1 and needs help resizing some APK's so i thought i would TRY and help but its not easy
@MarcelXDA
Just noticed you are in contact with VigiDroid

The go loker only work if we installed go launcher ....is there any way to use go locker without go launcher..???
Sent from my GT-S5360 using xda premium
That would require some smali editing after decompiling the apk, actually a LOT of smali editing, which isn't really easy.
Code:
System.out.println("Sent from my SGY");

Try this. Create a flash package with all these things:
1.Go locker.apk
2.Libs from go launcher and go locker in one folder
Flash it and see if it works
First install go launcher and go locker. Then active go locker and then uninstall go launcher. Then see , Go locker will work without go launcher... coz I'm using go locker without go launcher....
Ops, but it works only for some times

Libs?? There are libs in an apk file?? I never saw 'em when i decompiled an apk or even when I was creating an app. An APK file consists of only icons, java source codes (or smali in case of decompiled), and XML files. Atleast, that's all I know!

Dude then you have a long way to go . Not all apk's have /lib folder but some of em have it. For example download go launcher ex and make a backup of its apk. Look inside that apk using a zip archiver.

You're right...just saw it....btw, opened zeam launcher's and holo launcher's apk too and saw no folder named 'libs'...i wonder why an apk would need libs...

Its probably 3rd app dependencies,
Other launchers doesnt require that

Hello,
I'm a new Nexus 4 user, and I really want to know where is the settings background wallpaper located?
On S3 on 4.1.2 also on CM10 roms, the background is located in nodpi folder. In Nexus I cant find it, I've tried to download cm10.1 rom, but I cant locate it.
Any help would be much appreciated.
wallpapers are part of an apk, not in a folder

And apk's contain, wait for it, folders! Gasp!
Check the folders inside your launcher apk, OP.
he was asking which folder he can find the wallpapers in, to which I replied it's in an apk not in a nodpi folder like his S3; am i missing something? I know that apk are basically executable zip file that contain folders - that still doesn't make it a "folder" per se.
They are in launcher.apk /res/drawable-sw600dp-nodpi .. Really isn't hard to search each of them yourself either until you find PNG or the word "wallpaper"

@op. The image your looking for is background-holo-dark in framework-res.apk, drawable-nodpi folder.

•open framework-res.apk using winrar or 7zip.
•go to res/drawable-ldpi
•before you drag the icons you want, double check the names of the png. make sure they are the same with the one you want to replace.
•if everything is ok drag them to drawable-ldpi
•push the framework-res.apk back to your system/app then reboot

use apktool to decompile the apk and then in res/drawable and res/drawable-ldpi change the images you want. make sure that you dont change the image name and images with extension .9.png. recomplie and use it.
Lemme Try

you have to change the icons of the apps themselves, some launchers don't use the app's icons, but their own

yeah, true
?
So what can i do
U just wanna change the icons right?
U dobt need to mess with .9.png
Its easy to edit them though but its not needed for changing the launcher icons...
First thing is...
U need 7zip program
Now choose the app u wanna change the icon off
Right click the app and open it with 7zip
Browse into the "res" folder and drag and drop the drawable-ldpi to a location where u can edit it
I choose the desktop
Now in the drawable ldpi folder ull have a pic named "ic_launcher_icon.png"
Or sumthing resembling to this as its diff in some apps
Edit that image and open the apk with 7zip again and drag and drop only the edited pic in the res/drawble-ldpi/
Push the apk using adb or by root explorer...
Ur done
Happy to help
Hmm
But There Are Not All The Apps Icons In Drawable ldpi So What Can I Do Them
Every app has individual icon
U have to open every apps drawable ldpi and edit the icons...
A easier way is to download a icon pack for the specific device
Open the flashable zip
Ull have a "unpack" folder
There will be many folders named "app.apk"
app=name of apps
Try using the ics icon pack for galaxy y
In these folders ull have the images....edit the images and zip it again...FLASH
and its done
