Error while Compiling Home.apk

ShyamSasi · Sep 25, 2011

I get this error while compiling.

Code:

D:\APK Manager\other\..\projects\Home.apk\res\values\styles.xml:16: error: Error

ut'.

I just got the same error too without even changing anything. What files are you changing?

This is happening for all system apk for ver-283

Thanks for the response.

I'll editing the \Home.apk\res\values\styles.xml to enable more Home screens.

The Home.apk is the only thing I've had an issue with so far.

Select yes for system app, then no to copy over unmodded and see if it builds the resources file, if it does copy that from the keep folder and see if it's worked.

Any progress?

Just decompile apk, replace the string <style name="Layout.ButtonContainer" for <style name="Layout.ButtonContainer" parent="@android:style/Theme.Wallpaper.NoTitleBar"> at \res\values\styles.xml and compile...

I had the same issue. I can give u two advices. Use also this:

Code:

apktool if framework-res.apk
apktool if SemcGenericUxpRes.apk

then extract classes.dex

recompile using

Code:

apktool b Home

and reinsert classes.dex
