This is what i do:
I have tried this method with both Holo Green.apk by Ricardo and the Androidian.apk recently released for ICS.
1. Using APK manager for ICS provided by sonny sekhon, i decompiled the apk.
2. Compiled them back without making any changes at all.
3. Build, sign and installed the apk.
4. Got this error in Theme Chooser while applying the theme: "This theme was improperly compiled and cannot be applied. Please report this incident to the theme author."
Yes, the only solution i found and i have done this but it didn't work at all: Applied system theme>Reboot>Applied the custom theme>Reboot
It doesn't work for me. The error is still persistant. Attached below is my recompiled Androidian.apk with no changes done at all. Could some theme maker please point me out whats wrong?
Note:
Attachments are as follows:
signedAndroidian.apk=my recompiled apk
Androidian.apk=The original apk
I used vts for changing png of an apk (specifically that GS3 launcher made by Sam-rom)
after changing the png's i recompile it and then i install it manually with system app replacer , the install is successfull but the launcher is not installed.
I can manually install all the other versions but i have problems installing after i changed the pngs.
Decompile the apk with apk tool
Change pngs
Recompile
Sign apk
Put in flashable zip & flash with system mounted
Png must be the same file name & dimensions of the original

I used vts for compiling/decompiling which uses apktool.
I signed the apk with mh mahadi's tool
Still the same prob
try this > decompile it then compile it back > sign it > zip it > flash it > It works without mods? Yes, then you're playing with .9.png images wrongly | No, there is a problem in apktool!

I deodexed the systemui.
Can anybody please help, give me a hint of suggest a better working tool?
Sincerely vPro.

Chech each line you edited for a error. What tool fid you use to compile with? Make sure it is the newest.
Apktool. It decompiles and recompiles with no errors.
hii all..
I used to theme touchwiz for my S3 to look like s6..
after themeing I used to compile it with apktool and then zipalign and finally sign it with signApk..
it used to work fine..
Now I am trying to theme TouchWiz for my G900H.. but when I recompile, zipalign and sign the final apk as I used to do earlier it doesnt work.. Touchwiz doesnt install in recovery nor after I push it manually and set permissions..
where can be the problem ? what am I missing ?
P.S: I also used Advanced APK Tool v4.1 but same result..
please help if u can..
thanks
any help ??
Open the apk in 7zip, open original unmodified apk in 7zip as well, drag the unmodified apk's meta-inf folder to the modified one, should install now.
