[Q] apktool recompilation error! - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

While using apktool to recompile the contacts apk, SecContacts_OSup.apk, I am getting the following error in cmd. This is unedited folder, and trying to compile it right after de-compilation. But still getting error.
I have tried different aapt, different apktool.jar, both java 6 and 7 and such but to no avail.

Although not the right thing to do, I can remove the line with 'android:actionBarNonEmbeded' in them in Eclipse and there is no problem after deleting those 3 lines. But can't simply delete lines with 'android:searchViewTextField' as it throws up too many other errors, mostly same for other attrs.
I have surfed tons of pages at stackoverflow, xda and some other sites... but couldn't crack a solution. Can't add a simple + to @drawable either, obviously.
Reply by connor.tumbleson here on code.google.com might be answer but I couldn't figure out what to do.
url - code.google.com/p/android-apktool/issues/detail?id=441#c20
So, uh, pls help!
Note: Of course, I'm installing the framreworks first (framework-res.apk, twframework-res.apk and systemUI.apk). And have tried apkMultiTool v3.4 and some other apktool based solutions too. Nothing helped.

First of all, thansk for the tip!
I removed the layout portion of that line that actually made reference to photo_updates_header file. So, that actually didn't got me those error, but it didn;t build an APK file despite showing exactly that in cmd. Here's what cmd says:
D:\apktool>apktool b c1 111.apk
I: Using Apktool 2.0.0-Beta9 on c1
W: Could not find sources
I: Checking whether resources has changed...
I: Building resources...

I: Building apk file...
I: Copying unknown files/dir...
There is no APK file built, tho. Which is bad, and surprising. What do you suggest?
[I'm using apktool 2.0 beta9, and have Java 7 installed on Win8.1.]
Edit:
Is there a way how I should remove the reference to photo_updates_header file? Should I just delete the whole of line 9 that is making the reference?

as posted apk must be builded in dist folder of your decompiled apk , no errors that says different.
that reference is about missing traslation, just warning u can keep it(no harm in apk compiling) or add a line like this:
<string name="photo_updates_header">photo updates header</string>
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
in res/values/strings.xml on bottom of all strings
lemme know

Nope :/

Hi _alex74_,
Adding the line <string name="photo_updates_header">photo updates header</string> didn't work. Very sad.
Please suggest something else.
Can you reproduce the problem at your end? Can you recompile it or not even when it's untouched?
Here's the link to contacts APK that's been torturing me: __www24.zippyshare.com/v/59685951/file.html__

[HOW TO] Compile/Decompile ICS Apk easily|100% working

We are all here to learn, take from community and give back to community!!!
@Lord ClockaN
Hya guys, after A LOT of requests, I decided to share with the community something that I found really REALLY useful for Dev's but also for other users too that want to mess up with compiling and decompiling process. Usually, non problems at all with that, but since ICS come out, many dev\users are not able to decompile\compile properly many ics apk (not all). This guide will ensure you a good result, 100% working, easy, and fastest way to mess up with ics for theming and resizing purposes, or whatever you want
BIG THX to my friend and Dev teammate @Bichon for this

About Apktooll
Please consider to visit the original thread about this tool, because what I'm explaining here is just 1\10 of the real skill of this tool. You can do basically whatever you want with AutoApktool, themers will love it, Dev's will appreciate it a lot, I'm sure.
Why can't we use Apktool???
Well, you can, but it's more difficult, that's it.
Why do you say "must use 1.4.1 apktool version"??
The reason why is that since 1.4.2 version, apktool generate java code while recompiling process is going on, and this lead to errors that 9/10 makes decompile process fail.
Requirements (Windows environment, mine is Seven 64 bit)
Java (last version)
JDK (last version)
JDR (last version, usually included in JDK or Java)
SDK (last 3.0 version for ICS source code)
Auto_Apktool 2.0.0 (DOWNLOAD THIS ONE NOT OTHERS!!!)
HOW-TO (NOTE: before start, select Apktool version with option 21, YOU MUST CHOOSE 1.4.1 version!!)
1) Download and simply unpack Auto_ApkTool 2.0.0
2)Click on "autoapktoolmain.bat", prompt will open
{
"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"
}
3)put the apk you want to mess up with in "_INPUT_APK"
4) you can chose more than one option to decompile (option 6 is strongly recommended)
5) when option 6 is being selected, drag the apk from _INPUT_APK folder into the windows prompt and click enter
6) A Note window will appear, and will show IF the decompiling process has been done properly. Once you close that window, you will see the decompiled folder in _INPUT_APK folder
7) do your edits (xml, snali, or png, doesn't matter)
8) recompile with option 7 (NOTE: this time you MUST drag all the FOLDER, NOT the apk)
9) Once recompiling finished, open the decompiled folder, go to "dist" folder, and here you got your edited apk
10) you MUST sign the apk with option 10 (NOTE: drag the apk from dist folder to the prompt, then press enter, and in the SAME folder, a signedxxx.apk will appear)
11) Rename the apk, and push it |NOTE: you can push the apk with 62 option or with sdk typing:
Code:
adb remount
adb push xxx.apk system/app
adb reboot
That's it

Exactly what I was looking for. Thanks a milli.

First you must install framework-res.apk first then choose default option to select ur SystemUI.apk.
Then should be work fine....
If still cannot mean that apk files has been edited before !!!!!
Looks like 9png. files was edited...
Is it true that you edit any png files in res/drawable-* folder ?????

I have installed framework-res. I am not edit any file.

R U ok with java and jdk? The fault is when U decompile or after edit and recompiling?
Inviato dal mio HTC Desire HD with Beats Audio usando Tapatalk

Java is OK. Works with nexus, SGS1, GNex files. The fault is when decompile

U are messin up with 9png mate, as themer who I am, I remember you that those png MUST be fixed with 9png patch...also remember that guys, messing up with png is always safer and cleaner when it's done on the stock apk, which means no xml edits, no smali, whatever! First of all, custom png, second recompile, third smali/xml edits, recompile again, that's the way..

I made no changes to the systemui, I simply decompiled it (which worked fine) and then recompiled it.
Yes, I did apktool install the framework from the same system, before hand.
I have gotten this error everytime on the systemui, no matter which guide or apktool version I use. The framework-res works without a hitch, but the damn systemui is a ***** that has no mercy!
Thank you for any help you can throw my way. Me and a few others on the Prime thread are trying to get a % battery mod done for the Prime, but we need to be able to recompile the SystemUI.apk first.
- Thanks

Error compiling APK for i9505 (SOLVED)

Hi all!
I get these errors compiling apk's even without changes:
Code:
invalid resource directory name: ........\res/drawable-land-xxhdpi
invalid resource directory name: ........\res/drawable-sw359dp-port-xxhdpi
etc etc etc
framework installed ok to 1.apk
twframework installed ok to 2.apk
SOLUTIONS
Problem 1: invalid resource directory name: ........\res/drawable-land-xxhdpi, etc etc
-Be sure you are using an updated aapt.
Problem 2: Errors with styles when compiling
-Thanks to user .malo2000 for his solution:
-Extract files system_bar_notification_panel_title.xml and system_bar_settings_view.xml from apk. Decompile apk without these files, make changes, compile again and then push system_bar_notification_panel_title.xml and system_bar_settings_view.xml into apk. Remember to zipalign apk when finished.

Install SystemUI.apk also from system/app/
Nd try
Nd make sure if u changed ny pngs check out is it renamed properly

Installed systemui as 127.apk but no luck, same errors.
I did not changes at the moment. Just can't get compiling again.
I tried to add ids 2 and 127 to apktool.yml and no luck.

I got similar errors for SecContacts.. Looks like there are more dependent frameworks...

Tried installing MMAppFramework as 127 and added to yml file and same errors....

Hi guys. I've found a solution to compile it. But there´s a problem with apktool, I think...
Renamed the directories name ending with xxhdpi to xhdpi. Compiles ok, no errors. But obviously, apps compiled with this method does not work. Tested with SamsungCamera2, black screen and then FC.
How can we deal with that? Expect a new release of apktool?
PD: issue opened.

Ok, problem solved.
I was using an outdated aapt file. For those that have this problem, check aptktool and aapt version.
Now compiling ok.
Hope this helps.

I suggest you to use all files in last version from a new folder. Then reinstall framework-res, twframework and systemui.
I dont't know why is not working for you.
I've decompiled, modified and recompiled some files.

Not tried to recompile systemui before. I have errors too compiling but different errors than first post.
This time are /@style errors.
Well, I'll take a look to resources to know more about it. These style errors are here system_bar_notification_panel_title.xml. But not defined here: styles.xml.
Seems that this is reported as issue accepted with framework-res here http://code.google.com/p/android-ap...tus Priority Milestone Owner Summary Modified

Someone have a deodexed and zipaligned rom installed (i9505)?
Please, can someone check (deodexed rom) if this apk is working or you are getting FC?
It's deodexed and zipaligned samsungcamera2.apk modified to use camera with battery at -5%

[Q] Sense Multitasking Recents Mod for CM10.1

Hello everyone! I beleive this is the correct forum, so let me begin.
My brother recently got an HTC Droid DNA. Ok phone, laggy in some aspects that it should not be, but overall pretty cool. I have fallen in love with Sense Multitasking. I love the sleek look of it, and the reflection at the bottom.
My question is:
Is there any way to get the Sense Multitasking Recents for the Nexus 4?
I understand certain files would need to be edited and decompiled, and I would be up for doing this. A flashable mod would be preferable, but I have been unable to find one that works. I have however found these two mods, which do exactly what I'm looking for, but for other phones.
Link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2245793
Link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2227191
I have found guides, but most of those guides are for CM9/10 ROMS, and they do not work for CM10.1 for whatever reason.
Link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2066740
Link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1589963
Any help on the matter would be much appreciated!
Many thanks for your time,

C:\Users\Connor Baker\Downloads\apktool1.5.2>
So yeah. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong :l Any help would be gladly appreciated!
Connor Baker

Found what might be the problem (or one of them...):
https://code.google.com/p/android-apktool/issues/detail?id=424
The path appears to be invalid, "C:\Users\Connor Baker\Downloads\apktool1.5.2\framework-res\res/drawable-land-xhdpi". The backslash should be a forward slash. How would I fix this?
Connor Baker
Totally lost and way out my league.

Alright. So, because I really would like to have the Sense multitasking screen, I decided to re-install Ubuntu, in an attempt to see if a different OS fixed the problems I was having. Unfortunately, it didn't. So for whatever reason, I have decided to use the java version of the command.
I did find something interesting though.
When I run the java version of the command:
Code:

I get quite a few errors. But what made me wonder is when I do the same command, except with the flag for aapt (-a), I not only get fewer errors, but a different "Caused by"

I am now thoroughly, and utterly lost as to what to do. Again, any suggestions or ideas would be much appreciated.
Many thanks for your time and patience,
Connor Baker
EDIT:
I forgot to mention that I do Google a bunch of my errors and try to be as proactive as possible about solving my problems. I notice that a lot of people are getting the same errors that I am, and that different things will fix it.
I think it could be as simple as apktool not working correctly for me.
So, here's a list of things I have and have not done:
I did install Java (JRE, and JDK)
I did set up the Android SDK (Ubuntu)
I do have working adb (Ubuntu)
I did try to use a variety of programs to get the decompiled and editied .apk's to compile back
I did notice that if I decompiled framework-res.apk, and then tried to recompile it without editing it, I still got the same errors. I'm getting the creepy feeling that it may just be apktool. The latest version that I found was made back on the 2nd of February.
I did try Chainfire's fappt (fast aapt), and recieved the same results as the normal aapt.
I did switch out the aapt from the apktools package with the one in the Android SDK.
I DID NOT mess with any environmental varibales in Windows
I DID NOT add anything to my PATH file/directory "thingy" in Ubuntu
NEW: I have NOT edited SystemUI's public.xml, which may be causing some issues.
Thanks again,
Connor Baker

I would like that and I am following development closely, but right now in the short term (and possibly for the long term as well), I really want to get the Sense Recents Menu look... I find it quite sexy.
Thanks for reminding me about the port though

The fact that this mod works on devices without sense would say otherwise.

I know there is a sense recent-apps mod for Xperia Arc S, also windows phone and more, cause I had an xperia arc s... What I mean is sense recent-apps could be ported

Actually this feature of sense recents was present for the galaxy nexus and worked on aosp roms. It was even included in aokp but it was eventually removed.
Sense port isn't necessary.

Oh. My. God.
I think I figured it out. I decided to use a different PC (my Dad's), and got the same error. I then read through it as closely as possible. I found out that I couldn't compile because it was a path error. I hadn't specified the correct directory. I feel like an idiot
Well, now that it's fixed, I will try to build an compile and test it out

I looked through the guide, and I'm slightly confused with the smali editing.
"
STEP - 2
DECOMPILE, SystemUI.apk
go to - smali/com/android/systemui/recent/RecentsPanelView.smali
find this line method :
Code:
.method private updateThumbnail(Lcom/android/systemui/recent/RecentsPanelView$ViewHolder;Landroid/graphics/Bitmap;ZZ)V
Delete that line until its .end method
Code:
.method private updateThumbnail(Lcom/android/systemui/recent/RecentsPanelView$ViewHolder;Landroid/graphics/Bitmap;ZZ)V
-
-
-
DELETE UNTIL .end method
-
-
-
.end method"
Does that mean that from that line onwards (line 861-2081 beleive), until the very end of the page, I just delete the 1000+ lines of code? Or do I stop at the first .end method that comes up after the desired line (.method private updateThumbnail(Lcom/android/systemui/recent/RecentsPanelView$ViewHolder;Landroid/graphics/Bitmap;ZZ)V)?
By the way, thank you a ton for your help! I'm really eager to get this working!

not until the very end line of the smali you delete it,
only on that .method..
and each method on the smali has their own .end method
or if you still dont undesrtand just upload me your RecentPanelView.smali , I'll edit it for you

I'm getting this error now for the status_bar_recent_panel in both res\layout and res\layout-land. The only thing I can think of that would cause this problem is a typo or me not copying and pasting correctly into the .xml file.

Also, I attached the files that I thought you'd need if you wanted to take a look at the problem.

Ok. I'm getting stuck on the boot logo, but that's progress.
Both .apks succesfully compiled, but here's the thing: I compiled them using CMD pompt, not apk multi tool. So, I'm not sure if I need to compile the .apks in a certain way, and that's why this is happening, or if something is else going wrong :l
Uploaded the .apks that I compiled.

My question is, you are having bootlop or systemUI closes ?
if bootlop , means something wrong with your framework-res.apk, try not to edit framework-res.apk yet,. just use your stok CM10.1 framework-res.apk.
but if you having systemui closes means something from with your editing the systemUI.apk

Error decompiling APK

I am trying to decompile an LG app that is called LgNfc.apk, as the name says it's for the NFC control.. I want to hide the N icon when NFC is on, so I need to decompile this APK.
It is dependand from another APK that is called com.lge.apk so I did link to use that APK when decompiling (apktool if com.lge.apk)
The APK will decompile but the real problem is that it gives me a warning message, so if I decompile and try to recompile again (without touching the code) it gives me an error, so recompilation can't be done.
Here is what I get:
C:\Users\Feche\Desktop\apktool>apktool d nfc.apk

Any ideas why is this happening? Thanks :cyclops:

Have you installed the frameworks before decompiling?

Oops I did it last night, it was late and I didn't check if the framework was installed, indeed was that, thank you!
The only problem is that if I decompile and recompile again without touching the code, I get no errors but NFC won't start (it doesn't work), any ideas? I tried signing the APK but no success

Bump!

Official download here - http://www.coolapk.com/apk/per.pqy.apktool However, latest version is 6.1, and hasn't worked well for me with stock rom. 6.0.5 works perfectly - https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B1niPALD2vPeNmh6bVRjOU1mZ0k/view?usp=drivesdk
Steps (stock Sony 5.1):
- Download and install
- Make a folder in /sdcard called apktool, (or something), and copy 3 system app files there - framework-res.apk, Semcgenericuxp, (or whatever it's called... it's in framework folder).apk, and SystemUI.apk.
- Open apktool, navigate to apktool folder, and 1 by 1 tap on those 3 files and select 'import'. You should get success messages for each one. If not, don't bother going forward from here, it probably won't work. Framework-res will take a while. You can monitor status of import with 'task' option.
After that's done, you should be able to copy any apk to that folder and decompile. Here's how -
- Tap on apk file and select 'decomplie'. In the next screen, check box for 'run as root', then tap 'decompile'. When done, if successful, you will get a new folder called '(name of app)-src', with all decompiled files.
- Use a file explorer and editor to make changes.
- Go back to apktool and long-press on src folder, and choose 'recompile', and 'run as root'. If successful, a new apk will be created called '(name of app)-src.apk.
This is your new apk, but it has to be signed. Here's how -
For system apps:
- Using a file explorer that can explore apk files, (I prefer Mixplorer), go into the new apk, and delete android_manifest.xml file. Then go into the original of the same apk file, and copy android_manifest.xml file and META-INF folder to the new apk. It's now signed and ready to use. Just copy it to the appropriate system folder, and rename and set permissions 644.
For user apps, (installed into /data):
- Use apktool app, and tap on new apk and select 'sign'. A couple of seconds later you should get a new new apk called '(name of app)-src-signed.apk, which you can install normally.

Its works now for decompilling and recompile?

Found a newer version here - http://onhax.net/apktool-for-android-v5-2-0-all-versions-is-here-latest - I guess with version 5.0+, you don't need /sdcard/apktool folder but all files are included in app. Anyway, it has more promising-seeming settings, but I still couldn't get a successful recompile so far. I wish I knew how to understand the errors. I bet someone could tweak the app file to get it to work on our phone...

Update - got success on KK. Installed Munjeni's .108 ROM, used latest apktool set settings - 'apktool version: 1.5; aapt version: 4.4; device has root: yes', copied /system/framework/framework-res.apk, /system/framework/semcgenericuxp.apk, and /system/priv-app/systemui/systemui.apk to /sdcard. Tap each framework file and select 'import as framework', then tap systemui apk and select 'decompile all'. When done, you have systemui_src folder for editing. I didn't edit anything, but just for test tapped systemui_src folder, and chose 'recompile', and got success, with new apk created. Signed, and moved to system, and works.
Now I'll keep working on lp. Interesting, here is latest output on recompile -
I: Using Apktool 2.0.0-07ea41-SNAPSHOT on SystemUI.apk
I: Loading resource table...
I: Decoding AndroidManifest.xml with resources...
I: Loading resource table from file: /data/data/per.pqy.apktool/1.apk

Seems to be no errors, but no new apk is created. Any ideas?

apk is created in apktool\SystemUI\dist folder.
I tried 2.0.2 (with TMA) and it's working on 5.1.1.

Just a bump, in case anyone else is interested. Version 5.02 is working well with latest fw for modding 3rd party app, (see my recent posts here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1929663&page=178#post64177685 Also, another user here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2359240&page=12#post64180188 - seems to be getting success with system apps...

What are you trying to do,(decompile, recompile, which apk, etc). Also, if you wipe data on Apktool app, you delete a necessary file in /data/data, so you have to reinstall the app.

Bump - new version 6.0 released - https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&sou...ggrMAQ&usg=AFQjCNE1AnZq9tew_xjnR7hOPN295_PWhw
Version 6.0.6, (a user's mod - I haven't found a difference from 6.0.5) - https://yadi.sk/d/pwh1wHLXkU3qB

New version works for SystemUI on stock 5.1. Successfully nodded navbar XML and recompiled. Make sure to check 'aapt 5.1' option in popup box when recompiling.

How do I get the key for that version of the app?? Every other version is free but it tells me I need a key for 6.0/6.1 apktool. Also I'm having a recompile error with ApkTOOl 5.2 it is unable to execute the aapt files I guess. I've tried aaptnew aapt5.1 aapt4.4 and aapt5.0 none of them work. But decompiling does work. In order to get decompile to work though I had to go online and download IBotPeaches apktool_2.1.1.jar and replace apktool_2.0.0.jar with it to decompile. I'm on my Note 5 running the first release of Marshmallow.

Great. Let me know... For some reason 6.05 works better for me than 6.06 or 6.10.

Bump for op update...

Just found this - https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24572369242686015
Uses apktool 2.2 jar, and no startup wait time, and twice as fast as other one...
