Hello all.
I was wondering if someone might be able to help me with this.
I am using the apk multitool and can decompile the framework but get loads of errors when I try to recompile it.
This method worked well on my s4 and other devices but am having issues with this one.
What programs are you using to decompile and recompile the framework.
Or can anyone mod it to include the wifi tethering bypass and call recording features?
Any help would be greatly appreciated

Can anyone help?
I don't know what I am doing wrong.
The recompile just won't go through.
Even if I don't make any changes.

Thank you for the help,
I tried using your tool and can decompile the file okay now.
But am still running into problems recompiling it.
I have included the errors I am getting in a code block.
I am running Windows 8 and I am not sure if that might be part of the problem or not.
Any help would be appreciated with that.
Just still kinda amazed as this was working on my s4 without issue

it's because you didn't install the framework to pc. depending upon what app you use, it needs to have the framework files from your device or it will be missing dependencies every time you recompile.

How would I go about installing them with this tool?
I already have them copied out of the phone.

Okay.
I have updated to the newest version of the tool on his page
Used the check mark for installing propritary frameworks and installed framework-res.apk twframework.apk and SystemUI.apk
and still am running into the same errors even though I have the framework installed.
What might I be doing wrong?

I am using the one from elesbb's signature.
I pulled the framework from the s4 and I could decompile it and recomiple it with a problem.
Tried again with the s5 frameworks and have the trouble again.
Maybe the apktool.jar is too out of date.

I have attached the log from my recent try with the s5 framework.

And thank you for your help btw.

Thanks I may try that later.
I just grabbed the apktool jar that was updated right from the source and was able to do it with command line.
Got a few aapt warnings but worked fine.
I think it was just the other tool using an older version of that file.
