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.

Neither help, sorry. UOT can't change font colors in the menu and that cm7 thing is for images, again not for font colors in the menu.
Delete public.xml from res/values. It will regenerate while compiling.

Says something about 'declared here is not defined' at the end of every line
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.

Thing is its not compiling any apk.
Which tool are you currently using for compiling/decompiling?
Try extracting framework again, follow this
Yeah that is what I'm using.

Decompile the framework-res.apk and then download "Notepad ++" then open the xml with notepad ++ and you will be able to edit it from there

decompile the apk using apktools. open the xml file with notepad++ and edit.
then recompile using apktools and push it via adb to your phone.
Before edit xml you should go and visit

Take a tour

Did you open the boot.xml in notepad++ ?
it'll work with any text editor.
i think, notepad++ is cross-platform so preferred?

Notepad++ is made for xml editing an such, ive used windows notepad program and it doesnt do the editing process any justice. Notepad++ has nice features that make things so simple. Once I found out about it I never used anything again. Plus sometimes certain xml wont open in just any text editor , sometimes windows notepad wont display the xml correctly .. With notepad++ you wont have any worries ever again
thanks for helping me guys.........

I dont thing windows notepad opens xml files properly, but isnt there a built in xml editor in windows 7? Notepad++ is surely better

Regular notepad will edit decompiled xml's for me on windows7 but indeed notepad++ is without a doubt the best xml editor ive found

Better use apktool or apk multi tool it's amazing in terms for apk decompiliation and compilation.

First decompile a android app with apktool,after that u can easily edit any .xml file with notepad++ without any language problem.
If u extract an app.apk with winrar,7zip...etc or any android app like esfile explorer,zarchiver....etc then u can't edit .XML file & u face language problem.
So, decompile apk with apktool & then edit .XML files.
How to decompile apk, just Google it.
Thanks:
Yes! THANKS DUDE
