I am trying to change an image in the com.htc.resource.apk, I do it just like framework-res.apk from this guild
HTML:

However when I flash it, the OS boot loops, I wipe the data/cache before and after I flash the resource.apk. I am trying to change the default phone status bars to a black square(so it doesn't appear on the bar). Can anyone help me with this task?

P.S. I have tried goggled this topic but it routes me to framework-res.apk(which work great).

Use 7zip instead of winzip or winrar. Note that some image files are not editable, i think they call then 9jpes or something. Should be as simple as pulling the apk from your current rom, opening the apk with 7zip drag the images you want to edit out, edit them, then drag and drop them back in. Make sure to ok 7zip to update the files once you drop them back in. Then push the apk back to the phone while in recovery.
