got a weird phone.apk question:
(stock phone.apk from steelROM so it has the roam only hack and diag screen)
If I decompile/edit/recompile, I get random phone and acore FC. The size of stock is about 4mb, after I recomp at 9 compression in apkmanager it's 2mb. I've tried zero compression, ends up 5mb. I've literally tried everything I can think of. I've signed it and not, zipaligned and not. Nothing works, EXCEPT if I take the original apk, and 7zip in my compiled pngs.
I've been running the stock one with 7zipped in pngs since about noon, no FC yet, but I would like a cleaner phone.apk. I assume it's something to do with either compression or signatures, but I give up. Any pointers?
what are you doing just editing .pngs?
if so i know that phone apk has issues with apktool try making all your edits compile at 0 compression resign zipalign and then swap the resources.arse from original to edited. try that.
