[HELP REQUIRED] Translating QQ Desktop Pro (QQ桌面 Pro) FCs

I'm translating QQ Desktop Pro from Chinese to English using the UziTech Android Translator. I have successfully translated the strings.xml, but when it's reinstalled onto the device it force closes with this error:
ActivityThread | E: android.view.InflateException: You must specify a valid layout reference. The layout ID @layout/app_vertical_list is not valid.
(From CatLog)
The app_vertical_list.xml mentioned looks like this:
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<com.tencent.launcher.VerticalAppLayout android:id="@id/all_apps_v" android:paddingLeft="0.0dip" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:layout_marginBottom="70.0dip" android:layout_weight="1.0"
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:launcher="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/com.tencent.qqlauncher">
<com.tencent.launcher.AllAppsListView android:id="@id/applistview" android:background="#00000000" android:scrollbars="none" android:fadingEdge="vertical" android:fadingEdgeLength="20.0dip" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:listSelector="#00000000" android:cacheColorHint="#00000000" android:divider="@drawable/ic_list_dividing_line" />
<com.tencent.launcher.LetterListView android:id="@id/MyLetterListView01" android:background="#00000000" android:layout_width="25.0dip" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:layout_alignParentTop="true" android:layout_alignParentRight="true" launcher:textColor="#ffffffff" launcher:textSize="12.0sp" launcher:startPadding="10.0dip" launcher:endPadding="10.0dip" launcher:rightPadding="3.0dip" />
<TextView android:textSize="30.0sp" android:gravity="center" android:id="@id/TextView_CenterChar" android:background="@drawable/bg_hitchar" android:visibility="gone" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:layout_centerInParent="true" style="\@style/app_list_hitchar" />
<com.tencent.launcher.DrawerTextView android:id="@id/drag_cache_view" android:visibility="invisible" android:layout_width="72.0dip" android:layout_height="80.0dip" style="\@style/DrawerIcon.Portrait" />
</com.tencent.launcher.VerticalAppLayout>
(I've also attached the original XML in a zipped xml)
And the r.java decompiled from the classes.dex looks like this (screenshot):
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I've also attached the zipped source files, as it's too big to post.
Any ideas on why it force closes? I have successfully translated the Tencent Desktop (MIUI / iPhone style launcher with no app drawer) but want to translate this one. I'll post the other one soon.

[Guide]Replace Holo theme with DeviceDefault (Sony Theme)

Hello everyone, as we all here like Sony style I decided to get rid of AOSP Holo theme and bring up Sony's style in place of it.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Requirements:
APK Tool. I recommend you to use VTS
Text editor like Notepad++
First decompile you framework-res.apk from /system/framework/
Go to /res/values/styles.xml
Find: <style name="Theme.Holo" parent="@style/Theme"> and replace it with: <style name="Theme.Holo2" parent="@style/Theme">
Find: <style name="Theme.Holo.Light" parent="@style/Theme.Light"> and replace it with: <style name="Theme.Holo2.Light" parent="@style/Theme.Light">
Find <style name="Theme.DeviceDefault" parent="@style/Theme.Holo"> and replace it with: <style name="Theme.DeviceDefault" parent="@style/Theme.Holo2">
Find <style name="Theme.DeviceDefault.Light" parent="@style/Theme.Holo.Light"> and replace it with: <style name="Theme.DeviceDefault.Light" parent="@style/Theme.Holo2.Light">
Add this to the end:
Code:
<style name="Theme.Holo" parent="@style/Theme.DeviceDefault" />
<style name="Theme.Holo.Light" parent="@style/Theme.DeviceDefault.Light" />
To be like this:
Recompile your framework-res.
Create flashable zip and flash it with recovery.
Reboot and enjoy.

[java] How to add 3D Touch/App shortcut To Android App [Easy Guide][16/9/2017

In this tutorial we are going to learn how to add app shortcut to android app( like iphone’s 3d touch).
Into your app from scratch using android studio.
Requirements
-working Brain

-basic knowledge of android programming(not Required )
lets get started
Step -1
Add this in androidmanifest.xml
PHP:
<meta-data
android:name="android.app.shortcuts"
android:resource="@xml/shortcuts" />
After this
PHP:
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
It should look like this after adding the code
PHP:
<activity
android:name=".MainActivity"
android:theme="@style/AppTheme.NoActionBar">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
<meta-data
android:name="android.app.shortcuts"
android:resource="@xml/shortcuts" />
</activity>
Now Create New XML file inside res/xml/ (if there is no folder names xml then create one )
Name the file as shortcuts.xml
and paste this inside
PHP:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shortcuts xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<shortcut
android:shortcutId="myshortcut"
android:enabled="true"
android:icon="@drawable/shortcut"
android:shortcutShortLabel="@string/my_shortcut"
android:shortcutLongLabel="@string/ my_shortcut "
android:shortcutDisabledMessage="@string/ my_shortcut _disabled">
<intent
android:action="android.intent.action.VIEW"
android:targetPackage="YourPackageName" for example com.pankaj.rai
android:targetClass="YourActivityName"/> for example com.pankaj.rai.mainactivity
<categories android:name="android.shortcut.conversation"/>
</shortcut>
</shortcuts>
Add this value to res/value/strings.xml
PHP:
<string name="my_shortcut">Your shortcut name</string>
<string name="my_shortcut_disabled">shortcut is disabled</string>
Add icon in res/drawable
Name it shortcut
And it should look like this
PHP:
Shortcut.png
There you go guys now you have 3 shortcut in you app.

Recyclerview constraints don't work - help??

Android Studio 3.2
I've got a recycler view. The fields inside each item are ignoring constraints that were set.
1. I believe the internal cell of the recycler is not the width of the recycler.
2. Right and End constraints are apparently being ignored.
It looks to me like the Right/End constraints are ignored because the parent width of the internal ConstraintLayout is not the full width of the recycler.
I have the width set at 380 but had it at "match_parent".
I get the same result either way.
How can I get the spinner and the Date all the way over to the right side?

// Create new views (invoked by the layout manager)

return new ViewHolder(view);
