Hello, I have the following problem:
What I do:

apktool d [all apps one by one]
Translate string/arrays depending on the apps, in values-fr (for french language)

But some apps like Phone/Contacts/MiuiHome/MiuiGallery/Miui/MMS don't want to be rebuild
it seems that this is the basic apps

[Resolved] [Q] apktool smali debugging in latest versions of apktool or android multitool

Sorry for posting in Q&A, new user on the forums and can not reply in the apktool 1.5.2 thread. Many features have been added to the apktool as it has been developed and the tool is AWESOME, but one feature that appears to be broken is the debug switch -d that should output .java files with smali code wrapped in fake java classes. This is necessary for line by line debugging with NetBeans or Android Studio.
Is there any plans for re-implementing the debug of apktool for smalidebugging as outlined here: code.google.com/p/android-apktool/wiki/SmaliDebugging?
I can go back to apktool 1.4.x where the switch works but unfortunately support for res packages for the apk that I am decompiling does not exist in earlier versions of apktool.
Thanks for all the work put into apktool!!
Fixed in 2.0

[Completed] Mod on Third-Party Apk

I'm new to reverse engineering and XDA trying to learn by making edits to apps for my own personal use. I have an app that uses and installer and the installer then downloads the apk. I've got the decompile, edit, recompile and sign down. I need some advice on what part of the installer/app I need to edit to identify which app it should install. Any direction would be appreciated.

[Q] framework-res.apk fom GB/KK for ApkTool

Good day!
We know that framework-res.apk (and others with -res) must be installed first in order for the ApkTool be able to decompile apk.
But is there any differences in installing framework-res.apk from Android 2.3.x in installing framework-res.apk from android 4.x?
I mean, is installing framework-res.apk from Android 4.x to apktool can decompile more apk than installing framework-res.apk from android 2.3.x?
If that so, then should I use (ask for) framework-res.apk from Android 4.x even though I am using 2.3.x device?
I am using Advanced ApkTool, by the way.
But I guess my query is applicable to all apktool versions.
Thank you very much!
