I guess that could be only changed in strings.xml page of app source. I'm not sure whether you get that file when you decompile an apk, you do get the Manifest.xml file, but that just points to location in strings.xml
Correct me if I'm wrong.

Is this something where you change any app's name to your's and say others that it is made by you...
If not then I will help...

[MOD] Add CRT animation to your ROM

1: Decompile framework-res.apk using something like apk manager
2: Edit the file \res\values\bools.xml
3: Change value of bool name='config_animateScreenLights' from 'true' to 'false'
4: Compile framework-res.apk
5: Push new framework-res.apk to your phone with root explorer or adb push.
Alternately you can try flashing this template from CWM. CWM-flash-template.zip

Directory \res\values doesn't exist either in stock (odexed) or infected (dedexed) version of application (framework-res.apk).
EDIT: SOLVED !

Tutorial works with every FW I guess, I did it on infected based on zskk5. But it's little tricky.

"give me that file" ?
Tutorial works with every FW but not every framework file works with every FW.
Don't you understand that it is individual process, you have to decompile and re-compile YOUR OWN framework-res.apk (regardless of what FW you run on), with mine thousands times modified framework-res.apk you most possibly won't be able to boot the system.

i have one question to d33raj

i use new apk file but its not working for me (booting problem)
so where is the problem ?
plz help me
I really wish I could help you. But I'm not into developing. I did this using the tutorial that I specified as source. Almost all the Samsung Android devices work the same way. You could post your queries in pages of Samsung devices which has plenty of Dev support. Galaxy S and Galaxy S II are the most recommended places.

what have u done, did u unrar the apk or just edited the file with 7 zip or some other soft...
if u unrared it then u hav to sign it also..
I did the same for two files, decompiled, edited, recompiled (and signed). It worked like a charm on deodexed version but it caused some FC-s on odexed one.

not working for me.
I got it to work. I tried to make an update.zip but I dont think it works. Its best if you just copy over the files manually to there respective directories.
How would you put this file where it goes any instructions ?
Ayway to get this app to work on galaxy s3?
Would really appreciate it if someone could help

edit & sign ur apk "application not install problem" (for newbi)

hi,guys.. i know all of you wanna create or mod an android apps and wanna use it or share.
i think newb like me already tried to change the image files from res folder of apk but the problem is edited apk files just dont install,it always say application not installed,the problem is the apk isn't signed,you have to sign it.. most of newb dont know how to sign apk. so here is an android app "ZIP SIGNER" it can sign your apk file. in this app just input your edited apk and chose output location and press Sign,and your apk will be signed. and you will be able to install your edited apk...... so try it.

Not sure what you mean by method. But I think I found it. But when I try to look at a png file it tells me that file does not exist. Going to move it out of system app and see if it is a root problem.

I started editing by just replacing a simple picture in an apk file I had
After replacing it I tried to install the app but it fails each time
So this is what I did

2. Replaced the file with the same name
3. Tried to install
Result: App not installed.....
So, what is going wrong in the process
