editing android XML files

hi everyone .... i want to edit the .xml files in android .... is there any efficient or reliable way by which the editing is possible.... plz help me ....
thanx in advance

What kind of files do you want to edit? There are a lot of good tools in the Eclipse Android plugin.

please post in general section....
if u r talking about the xml in framework or apps u need to decompile first...
using search option is the best way to do it...

You can use Apk Manager or Autoapktool for easier compile/decompile.
Dont use the development section for questions! Use the general section instead!

thanx dude .... and sorry i posted it in devep. insted of general section .....

plz send me d perfect link about decompiling and recompiling apk files like framework-res.apk...... with the requiremwnts plz....

Is that only if you want to work with the xmls within apks?
What if you want to modify the xml in your system files?
Tried File Expert and aShell but they can't open the xml file.

What they can do?
A patch?

Is there an app for froyo to edit a xml files ?

every APK needs to be decompiled before XML editing with a unix conform editor (notepad++ e.g. for windows)
after having edited the xml, just recompile it
a very good tool (with guide) is found here
Read the instructions carefully and have fun.
Cheers

edit res\xml
before you begin, you must decompile. you can use apktool . if done you can edit with notepad++ or import existing code on adt.
and recompile
#good luck...

[Q] Recompiling source code of an existing app

Hello all,
I have the source code of an existing app and have made a few changes. However, I am still new to this and was wondering how I would go about putting everything back into an apk file. Would anyone kindly be able to provide any links that show detailed instructions on how to do so?
Thanks in advance

[Completed] Install app on SD card (external)

Hi,
I ve been trying to install an app to the SD card. This app is Cytus ( the latest version - 9.1.2 ) which consists of 2 parts : 1 apk and 1 obb file ( yeah I know it will be much easier to install Cytus from Play Store but insufficient internal storage and "free version" was the problem). I have followed the installation instruction : unzip the obb file and copy it to "android/obb" and then install the apk but it didnt work.
Cytus app hanged on it's white screen after I opened. So I think the app didnt recognize the obb file or was unable to read the file.
My device's info :
Oppo R1011
ColorOS version : v2.0.1i
Android version : 4.4.2
Can anyone help me with this situation. Any reply will be much appreciated.

Hi Vatsal
First of all thank you for the reply.
I have followed your guide to have a look at "Ask any Q Noobfriendly", but i didnt know how to post my question. I couldn't find any "Post new question" button or "Post new thread".
I did try to search for any post related to my problem but all I got was : install " Obb to SD" or "Folder mount" , which required rooted device.
Can you please show me how to solve this issue or point me another way ?
Thanks in advance

Hi
Thank you for using xda assist
Regarding your inquiry not actually sure if you can delete the mentioned apps on your phone.
Remember, deleting built in apps may cause problems so make sure you know what you are doing, at least have a backup incase everything fails.
