Hi everyone
I have a problem compiling and decompiling apks.
Firstly im using zeus v2.1 rom and i take framework-res.apk and systemui.apk.
Then I put this apks to apk manager 5.0 file and decompile with apk manager.And I dont touch and dont modify any files and I open again apk manager and choose compile option.Than apk manager gives error.Why it giving error i dont touching or modifying any files.Also Im opening apk files with winrar and want to put any files to inside winrar gives error broken archive.But these same apk's when i put them in the phone it works normally.Where is the wrong?:confused:

"projects\SystemUI.apk\smali\com\android\systemui\statusbar\AnimatedImageView.smali"

and

"C:\Users\cd555obx\Desktop\Apk Manager\other"

Why in OTHER folder? I think I'ved used apk manager once and it wasn't far from what i use now. normaly, we put the apk in "place-apk-here-for-modding" folder.

Also this lines, why does it has dropbox in it?

Try the one/link I posted earlier, easy to use.

EDIT:
Saw your post in my thread. You touched the SMALI and wanted to remove time?

I never had errors like that. Only if I made a mistake editing xml's, and it logs clearly where i've gone wrong. it must be the tool you use to decompile. What version is it? And is the APk you are trying to decompile deodexed?

I have Android SDK and Java installed. I will upload the one i use to decompile, try it.

I will attach as well a compiled but untouched framework-res from Zeus v2.1. See if you can compile/decompile it as I do. If not, you're missing something. The tool itself, java, or ASDK.

I had those errors even when I had everything installed.However I noticed it doesn't happen with untouched APKs...so if you try to decompile and compile the framework-res.apk from Redy's v20N package it will work but if you try to do that with the Zeus framework it will give those errors even if you don't modify it,just my 2 cents on what I experienced

EDIT: Also tried the manual version using CMD with apktool..same errors

Nope, the one attached is untouched from Zeus v2.1. Just now I decompiled/compiled it and had no errors and uploaded (See date modified on properties). it must be the tool you both use.

See his logs? says "cannot load aapt" aapt.exe is the problem inside the tool. will post the link of the issue.

See. :) I think I posted the download link of it somewhere in Zeus thread when he posted. George must have missed it. I trold him to try it, APK Multi Tool.

I think timvdhoorn doesn't have problems compiling. :) As he compiled a theme before. Only mistakes in modifying xml's, smali's or images he'll have errors or will not decompile.

Happy theming.. :)

Yeah pretty much the smallest mistake in editing XML's can cause errors in compiling the apk..just trial and error
