You have to decompile framework-res in APK Manager or APKTool(Or whatever other tool you can find to decompile).
Under values edit strings.xml and find the line "<string name="zz_roamingText1">ACS</string>"
Change the "ACS" value to what you want and recompile framework.
Do not expect it to work. It will most likely fail even if you don't change anything.

Yeah I can never get it to recompile either. I think you have to set twframework-res.apk as a dependency or something like that. Mystery has a guide on just this subject but I still couldn't get it working. And also omega, you don't sign system apks?
cd's or tapes?

Decompile, change the file, recompile, then take the recompiled XML file, and put it in the original apk
Not going to work since styles.xml becomes bundled with resources.rsc. Replacing the resources causes a **** load of errors.
If you want a custom thing in the drop down your gonna have to edit a stock framework add all the changes from the theme your using

Here's my method for editing the styles.xml.
With apkmanager, decompile, then immediately recompile your framework-res.apk. If you get errors, then you got an issue that you must fix. If you can read the error log, it will tell you what it is. No errors, then continue.
in the projects folder, navigate to the values folder and open the styles.xml with a text editor (I recommend notepad++).
Make the edit that darkie posted above, save, then recompile.
No errors? good, now sign the apk
Go back to the modded, extract the signedframework-res.apk and open your original framework with 7zip. Then copy the resources.rsc from the extracted folder to the same location in the 7zip window.
Note: this is the method that has worked for me

The problem with your method is the changes to public.xml that is compiled into resources.rsc. There was changes made to public.xml for reboot and the 6 lockscreens

Please excuse me on this one, still new in all this but how does editing the styles.xml affect the public.xml?? Specially since I'm just tinkering with srf 1.2 files to get use to everything.

Not if you're using the stock 6 lock mod. It decompiled/recompiled perfect for me.
So if you used SRF or Simply Blue as a base you could swap 'em out without problems......theoretically
Right, I'm talking about using a framework that already has all the mods cooked in, not a stock framework.
He's talking about using a completely stock framework in reference to the method I posted earlier, and how the mods affect the public.xml.
Ohhhhh okay, that makes sense lol. Can't wait to get this work day over with to test out the method
thanks for the help so far.Posted by some phone named the Epic.

Okay so i finally got around to doing this.
Heres what im running into thats stopping me (using APK Manager):
EDIT:
ok so i looked into the logs and found this:
Heres what im running into thats stopping me (using APK Manager):
- Decompile - OK
- Modify Strings.xml - OK
- Compile - This is where i get lost, when i goto the keep folder and delete the resources.rsc file then sign it. there is no new resources.rsc file... what am i doing wrong? Also just to make sure on these two steps that ask you if its a system file and copy over other files, I assume I say YES to both?
EDIT:
ok so i looked into the logs and found this:
Then it opens up a can of worm in the public.xml dealing with the .9.pngs

Did you decompile, then recompile the framework-res.apk before you made any changes? That is a test I ALWAYS run to make sure I don't have other things to fix first.
