[Help] [Pro] Need help to modify Stock Settings.apk properly

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.

Hi,
Can you give some more details
Did you build from source?
Port it from another devices?
Simply unzip a ROM for your device, make changes and rezip?
When you flashed the ROM was it a status7 error?
You say you made changes in the updatet-script, what were the changes?
The more details you give the better answers you will get

Dude I took my base rom as the standard custom rom for xolo q700i- the x rom and I ported it with the galaxy Quattro stable cm... it had almost the same specifications........ I had updated the updated script of x rom by cm rom but then I used original updater script of x rom... This guide I took was from YouTube on porting and he was from XDA.....
So you took a ROM from a similar device, replaced some files, apks and libs, then changed some things in the updater-script and rezipped and signed?
Is this about right?
If so you will need to be a bit more specific about what you changed in order to help you fix your issue, again, the more specific the better your help otherwise I and others helping can only give the best guess on what to do

It being a bad file so i replaced the new meta inf file with the original meta inf file but i dont know now what will happen shuld i flash it .......(u can ignore this) i also had a question dat when u rezip with winrar should the zip file be normal or best mode .........it asks .........when we archive it .....(u can ignore this)

so dude yes it is the status 7 error regarding the build.prop ....... so i need help to edit my updater script so should i use the updater script of the base rom .........or do some major editing ...
Thanks for supplying more information, now I have a better idea of how to help.
You should use the update-binary for your device, not the one ported,
All editing of the updater-script will need to be done in UNIX format, not windows as EOL differs, if your using windows be sure to use notepad++ and set it up properly,
I use 7zip normally not winrar but it shouldn't matter, you need to have compression set to store,
It has been years since I have tried to make a ROM in this fashion but I don't think much would have changed, the point your at now is to get it to flash (not get the ROM to work) this means you need to fix the status 7 error, which will be done by fixing your updater-script
If you want, post a copy of the meta-inf folder for your device and the one you are porting from an I can help further
Sent from my Nexus 7 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Thanks so much.......... Ur thnx meter is getting one more thanks
Dude should I replace the whole Meta in folder or only the updater script....
Take a meta-inf for your device and replace the updater-script from the other one and swap it. Then you'll more than likely need to edit it to flash on yours
Sent from my Nexus 4 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
Sorry I didn't understand anything.... I just swapped the cm 11 meta inf file with the original meta inf file.....
Well you can't do this, you need to have the update-binary for your device specifically and you need to edit the updater-script to work with yours as well.
So keep meta-inf specific for your device, and only swap updater-scripts, then you need to edit this updater-script to match the partitions of yours as well as make sure there aren't any get_props that conflict.
I highly suggest reading up on updater-scripts so you understand the changes that need to be made

@demkantor has guided you very well.
U should take advantage of it.
I repeat once again.
get the update-binary from any other ROM specifically made for your device.
Then modify the existing updater-script.
Make sure Mount points are correct.
That's it.
USE NOTEPAD++ else surely if you would get status error.
Good luck

Enabling Hotspot on rooted Verizon HTC 10?

anyone know how to enable the tethering on the Verizon HTC 10 without a subscription? On the M8, there was a zip that was flashed to enable it, I was wondering if there was something similar, or if there is a text file that can be edited?
if you are rooted, goto /system/customize/acc/default.xml. using some editor, goto line 202 "tethering guard support" set that to false.
That should do it
thanks!
heres a edited default.xml (Verizon) to enable it if anyone interested
This is for launch 1.19.605.9 base
Does 'tethering guard' have to be changed? It's Is currently set to '1', which I noticed is different from the thread on the unlocked version. The unlocked version has a default of '9' and ppl ate are changing it to '0'.

That's tether guard rule. Set that to 0.
Then go find tether guard support and change to false.

youd need to replace the file in a File Explorer with root access. back up your original for just in case, but if your Verizon you should be fine.

there is no bluetooth fix.
the fix is the stock firmware for your device which technically this is. so should bt be fixed with the end result. yes

i will post if and when i am informed that it is indeed working as intended
Awesome. Looking forward to reading about the results.
