I've read many guides and trawled a lot of code, since there not will be integrated the scaling function of the navbar in CM11 I wanted to do an outside mod for my Nexus 5.
I should to edit the file framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk, particularly in the SystemUI.apk I should edit the part about the string: "@drawable/ic_sysbar_back" and "@drawable/ic_sysbar_back_land" and delete "android:scaleType="center" ... in many ROMs including the stock ROM there are no problems, but in the CM11 can not find the following strings. How to solve? There are string equivalents?

Hi,
Recently I have modified and replaced phone.apk successfully and now I want to change framework-res.apk because I want to change the lockscreen of my device. But how can I compile framework-res.apk from source?
Many thanks in advice
I was wanting to make a complete port of the optimus 2x theme/framework. How would I go about doing this? what are the most basic changes I could make to start this?
I have Ubuntu setup and Android Kitchen JDK/SDK/NDK etc.
Most basic changes would be swapping png files around. After that would be editing xml files. I don't know about you OS, but I use APK Manager to decompile and recompile. And I use EditPad to edit the decompiled xml files.
Next step up would be smali, and after that is beyond me. There are some very talented themers in the G2x area that might help you; KingDavid63, bmann_420, and mmapcpro are the first 3 off the top of my head.

Awesome! Thanks so much!!
I've been at this for a little while and I have not made any headway. I know this should be in the developer thread but I'm unable to post there due to lack of post.
My goal is to get App ops back onto a stock+rooted rom by this method.

I am able to decompile settings, framework and com.htc.resources but once decompiled i cannot find Settings.smali to make the changes.
When decompiled in the settings folder I have the android manifest and a res folder.
This is the first htc phone I've had so maybe I'm over looking something. I know the original post is using a Nexus but I think I should be able to at leaf get to the editing point.
I'm running ART which rules out Xprivacy since it runs off of xposed and I prefer to edit this in rather than running a closed source alternative.
-Any direction would be greatly appreciated.
As an update I was able to get into the settings.smali however the code for Sense is not the as what was linked in the above article.
Does anyone know the edits needed to achieve this in Sense 4.4.2?
I can supply the settings.smali if needed.
Are you trying to do it this way because you don't want to run the Xposed Framework? There is a module which will do this for you here.
Correct, I'm running ART which Xposed Framework is not compatible with.
Hi,
I'm new with android ROM cooking. The compile from PC-Man and CM sources is working fine. I was able to change some little things (default wallpaper / bootanimation). But now I want change the default font.
Does any one knows, where it is defined ? I know, I can change it after the rom is flashed, but I want change it in the sources.
Thanks,
Harvey
Hello there!
Today I'm asking this question because I didn't found a question like this on XDA, and I was wondering why.
However, this is not so obvious in my opinion!
I know that you can find the Java code (in some sort) in the apk file.
But I checked some system apps (i.e. TouchWiz Mass Launcher, SystemUI) and I didn't find any code into these apk, only XML, resources, drawables and stuff.
So where can I find it? I'd like to modify system apps to add new features, not only for theming
Thank you in advance.
(P.s: Please avoid "U should install xposed its mor easy" thing because I do know that and I got it already. Just answer - or don't-, thanks)
