For changing images in apk just use 7zip/Winrar.
Which errors do you get? The first lines usually tell you what the problem is. If you can provide the errors, I could try to help you out.
Exactly!if u have to just change pngs use 7Zip to change/replace the png(s)....

Is there a way to choose/make/browse themes [FULL] only for incoming call screens? Especially for Samsung Galaxy Y, the stock answering call is really bad.
Is it possible to download / theme the incoming call screen via Metamorph? And where to find such themes for Samsung Galaxy Y?
I already know about some third-party apps on Play store such as Ultimate Call Screen HD, but they don't do what I need.
p.s. I'm NOT looking either for ROMs with different incoming call screens (I'm here for a simple way to theme the incoming call screens for android)

I decompiled Phone.apk
there are many xml files and png images, I'm looking for the images that targets "specifically" the incoming call screen items such as the background, frames, sliders. What are the png/xml file names to tweak those specific things

I downloaded several Phone.apk(s) from the net, but every time I try to install one it asks me that "this is a system app, do you want to replace" and say yes but then it says (Application not installed)
What could be wrong? and how to fix it?
I think you should flash via cwm. Well, i am a beginner but even i changed my default one. But pls confirm with senior members. I think you have to flash it

I tried flashing the flashable APK but with no success, it displayed "installation aborted" at the end.
Yes I agree with koradiavatsal, u should flash through cwm, or try this, copy the file (Phone.apk) to /system n set permission to rw-r--r-- n then move n replace it to /system/app, then reboot. If this not succesfull the one way is flash it through cwm

Before I continue to to the replacement inside the system/app directory...
Is it ok to replace even if the Phone.apk is made for ICS or JB? I of course use GB.
I use Notepad++ to edit XML. In Stock ROM it is fine. But almost all Custom ROMs have this problem. How can i edit it? Are there any ways to edit it?

You need to decompile it!
Lol! Decompile the apk first using apktool or apkmanager. That's the binary form of xml, on decompiling you'll get the readable form.

Download the zip I attached
now open command window where the files you downloaded is.
now to load framework first put the 3 frameworks in the folder with the file you downloaded.
dont type the one in the parenthesis because that's a comment.
type this in cm
apktool if framework-res.apk (type it exactly)
apktool if twframework-res.apk
apktool if hyperion-res.apk
type them one by one. that's how you do it.
Press the thanks button please if i helped
Re: decompile settings.apk
In your Username/.apktool folder, paste twframework res. Apk and rename it as 2.apk.

I installed all apk found under system/framework with apktool.
*framework-res.apk & another apk
Then decompiled Settings.apk of Xperia pro stock ics Rom.
After that ,without making any change I compiled the apk. Then I surprisingly noticed that the size compiled apk is 1/3 of original stock settings.apk .
Then I flashed the apk using cwm to my phone to test if it work .after flashing, the setting icon is invisible in launcher menu !
Plz anybody tech me how decompile and re compile stock settings.apk of Xperia pro properly..

What tool do u use? For settings u edit setting_header.xml where is that present and all u must be knowing?!
After clicking on compiling apk manager asks to delete resources.arc and also the xml you edited. Then compile it should.
