*** Make samsung system apk multidpi compatible ***
Install APKTool v2
https://ibotpeaches.github.io/Apktool/
Copy Framework-res.apk and twframework-res.apk from framework folder to computer
Install frameworks in apktool using the following commands:
apktool if Framework-res.apk
apktool if twframework-res.apk
Copy relevant apk to folder
Decompile using apktool with the following command:
apktool d <name>.apk -o <name_output_folder>
Edit the dimens.xml file in <name_output_folder>\res\values\ folder (And also the dimens.xml file in <name_output_folder>\res\values-land\ folder if that exists, this contains the landscape mode values)
Change all the values "xxxdip", where xxx is a number, to "yyypx" where yyy is 4 times xxx. So "640dip" would become "2560px"
I created an awk script for this, which uses gawk on windows: replace_xml.awk. First copy the xml file to be edited (%xml_file%) to another location (%xml_copy%)
Next call the awk script on the copy, outputting to the xml file:
gawk -f replace_xml.awk %xml_copy% > %xml_file%
Recompile the apk, keeping the original META-INF content (which can be done because we don't change the manifest.xml file) using the following command:
apktool b <name_output_folder> -o <name_output_apk>
*** Contacts/Dialer & Patching Services.jar***
For the contacts/dialer an extra step has to be taken, that is patching services.jar to skip checks for properly signed files
Copy services.jar from system\framework to computer
Decompile it:
apktool d services.jar -o services_jar
Open services_jar\smali\com\android\server\pm\PackageMa nagerService.smali ( I used notepad++ )
Change the following part (might not be the exact same):
