What version of the apktool are you using. What steps are you following?

i am using version 3.2...and i copied the apk and i decompiled as i am doing usually

Thanks hyztname! I was using apkmultitool and apk manager and all that for so long I did not know such a straight forward way existed. I was having trouble recently with a certain apk that would not decompile properly and I tried your way with the regular apktool and bam!

Cheers!

Hi
Thanks for your tutorial.

I followed it to recompile android htc live wallpapers apk, signed it, and reinstalled it into the device /system and it seemed to work.

Now I am trying to decompile dockmode.apk from the /system folder, and fix some stuff. I notice in the main AndroidManifest.xml file that they spelled HTCBuletoothconfirm wrong, it was supposed to be HTCBluetoothconfirm maybe?

I am also trying to remove the default live wallpaper from dock mode (right now it is com.htc.WeatherLiveWallpaper and I want to change it to the one I'm using now.

But when I try to build the apk, I get the following error:

c:\Users\asus\Desktop\apktool>apktool b DockMode
I: Checking whether sources has changed...
I: Checking whether resources has changed...
I: Building resources...
invalid resource directory name: c:\Users\asus\Desktop\apktool\DockMode\res/values-w1dp
invalid resource directory name: c:\Users\asus\Desktop\apktool\DockMode\res/values-w2dp
invalid resource directory name: c:\Users\asus\Desktop\apktool\DockMode\res/values-w3dp

I notice that the directory separator \ is switched to / and I have no idea why. Because of this I can't rebuild the apk.

Any suggestions what I should do? Do I need to go into each smali file and change everything?

Thanks

hi,
need help please
i used apktool 1.4.3 to decompile the framework-res.apk from a rom
that worked without probs
i changed a style.xml in res/value

i used ics apktool for compiling but it wont work
first line says always could not find ressource, but it was the right path where the decompiled folder was in..
after that i get a lot of errors aswell...

Please you all having problems with 3th part apktool/s, use the original one.

Otherwise I won't help you :\

Okay, go to this thread and download the apktool.jar for the link provided on that thread.
http://rootzwiki.com/index.php?/topi...-Rule-Them-All
Replace the sdk apktool.jar with the one provided above. I have mine on usr/local/bin or something like that. I use Linux OS.
Then copy the aapt provided it with your SDK, usually located in the tools folder, and replace that file on usr/local/bin. Pretty much you have to delete the aapt file that came along with your windows apktool .I hope I did explain everything clearly, if not, please let me know. I spent days trying to make the apktool work properly on Linux mint.
