[Q] Modifying .xml in settings.apk?

---

I am trying to edit an .xml file in settings.apk, i can't remember the name as im away from my computer, but i tried decompiling manually and recompiling and i jsut get force closes when i copy back to system\app. I also tried apk manager and get the same force closes. I did sign them .apk and also include the twframework.apk as a dependency when compiling/decompiling. Any tips as why i could possibly be getting all force closes? I removed touchwiz from system/app could this effect it?

I don't have experience with your specific case, but when it comes to removing touchwiz from system/app I have noticed problems. For one, when I select Airplane mode, phone lags and I get a force close error. Another, I experience longer (not considerably longer, but still longer) boot times. Tried various things such as factory resets, flashing touchwiz-less systems, but still got these error.s Both issues remedied by putting touchwiz back in system/app.

So yea, not directly answering your specific case, just saying it's possible since removing touchwiz seems to cause problems for myself.
