I've never had any issues, what specific files are you trying to open?

any of the xml files inside of latinime.apk
Does anyone have any suggestions on how i could fix this problem?
the xmls in the apk? they are compiled. It's not ascii, you need a hexeditor if you want to edit them, but without the source xmls its a lot of work.

You can find all the system files here
timescape and media scape are as integrated as rosie is into a htc build.

Hi! hkfriend
is it possible to pull the SEM X10 CIME(chinese input).
Thanks
You will need additionally following libraries to run Mediascape:
com.sonyericsson.android.seee
semc_contentmanagerif
semc_mediascapeif
semc_accountproviderif
semc_mspluginmanagerif
I think I saw them somewhere in accessible folders, but can't recall where.
I have disassembled Mediascape in order to enable scrobbling to Last.fm, but so far no success Does anyone have a clue how to hook into Mediascape?
Hello, I want to decompile my framework-res apk so I can possibly add a battery that displays percentages. Is there any program out that will let me do this?

Your looking for Smali/BakSmali.
No offense intended here, but the fact that you are asking tells me that you are going to need a lot of research in doing this. It's not necessarily decompiled into the most readable source code. But it's that way with most decompiling, and you probably realize that.
Also, since we don't have source code for HoneyComb, the current Smali/Baksmali implementation doesn't work well/at all for some files.
Good Luck.

Thank you, I have previously viewed that thread. There aren't really any clear cut instructions on setting it up properly. Are you able to edit the XML files contained in the drawable folder? That is all I'm interested in. I can't seem to successfully decompile the framework-res apk. Thanks again
Sent from my Xoom using XDA Premium App
I will offer to help you out.
1. Install latest SDK from http://Developer.google.com & Eclipse.
2. Search for apktool and unzip files into the SDK folder under platform_a DB
3. Buddy fix apktool with attached files. You will need to rename these files to Apktool, etc..
4. Copy framework-res.apk, systemui.apk, settings.apk, and launcher2.apk from \system + copy the odex
5. Run apktool d framework-res.apk (do this for each apk)
6. Look in the Res/drawing folders for images to mod.
Now you have the .9.png files with marks & the decompiled XML for reference.
Use Photoshop to modify the files.
Use draw9patch to compile any .9.png files
This is really important. Use 7zip or any other zip app that allows you to open and view an apk as a zip without actually unzipping it. Just copy the new photo files in and add them to an update.zip (you can download this from XDA Xoom Development thread) or use a DB to push the updated files to the Xoom.
Theaming is a subject but that's the basics. I can't upload files for newapktools.zip right now but will edit this when I get home later. Alternativly, maybe someone can post the patched up Xoom compatible apktool files. They are also in XDA theaming thread if you search.

Yes I can you need Java JDK installed:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html
Eventually you will need Eclipse and I use Gimp because its free and doesn't break any .png files.

In "framework-res.apk/res/layout" when I edit the "status_bar_expanded.xml",
even if I add one dot and delete it again and save the file, it doesn't work
anymore and it stucks on my bootanimation, and loops over and over.
I use "apk manager" for decompiling and compiling the framework-res.apk.
Does any one know what the problem is?
Thank you?

Here is my "status_bar_expanded.xml"
I just want to change some colors. I did the same thing for other xmls like
"status_bar_latest_event_content.xml" and it works perfectly, but for that
one, it stucks on my bootanimation. when I compile the xml I get no error
but I don't know what the problem is.
For that 1.apk and 2.apk, no I didn't do that.
I'll try it and report back.

Honestly, I don't know what those "manifest" and "metainf" are, because I changed some xmls and I'd had no problem with them, So I thought that's the way to compile and decompile framework-res.apk.
Could you plz tell me what should I do? Thanks.

I thought u already have this covered because it sounded like you have no problem with other XML except this.
But if u have not heard of the two files/folder I have hightlighted chances are you don't have them in your newly compiled apk which will cause bootloop.
After compiling ur apk you should see that meta-inf folder is missing. U need to copy that from the original API, along with manifest.XML to the new apk.

Whatever's happening I'm getting errors on everything no matter what I try and I'm following the instructions.
Try compiling it ignoring the error messages then from the compiled apk, extract the files you modified including png and xml files, then from the original apk open it with winrar and paste the files you extracted previously.

The Xml file you posted actually contains binary data, not just plain text. I couldn't find the strings you posted, so I couldn't modify it.... I can show you the only readable data in the image attached.
You need to decompile the xml first to make edits to it.
