[Q] how can I compress an apk

Hi everyone
I just want to know how can I compress an apk, I got cm7 with theme chooser and I have modified some png of a theme, replaced them and now I want to compress back all the extracted files in order to rebuild the apk.
Search for something called "Apktool".
You can create the .apk file with something like winrar, but i think there will be a problem with the signature.

.zip to .apk on mac??

does anyone here know how to convert a .zip to a .apk the correct way? im trying to edit my notification pulldown bar and make it semi transparent, but when i take my systemui.zip file and try to rename it to .apk via root explorer and then replace the original systemui.apk with the modded one, it does not work, leading me to believe that im not converting my .zip to .apk correctly...how do i do this??
You need to sign an apk for it to work. I have tried many of the auto sign apps but can never get them to work for me.
Just rename it to systemui.apk an apk is basically a zip file but you have to name it that.

[Q] Issue decompiling apk with apk manager

I have apk manager 5.02 which I can de-compile framework and recompile with out any issues.
I downloaded the stock 2.08 sense 3.5 rom and used explore2fs to extract the contents of the system.img file. From there I then put htcdialer.apk file into apk manager to decompile it and I get the following errors:
See attached log file as it is too big to put into the forum.
Any ideas why the apk file is not decompiling?
I dont hink that apkmanager can correctly decompile sense 3.5 apks, I could be wrong but i could never get them to work properly
If APK Manager and Tool cant extract even GB ROM apks is there a way of extracting and editing xml files? I tried 7zip and I can edit images but XML's do not extract correctly
Really interested to see how to edit XML files if APK Manager and APK Tool cant decode the APK's.
Found out what I was doing wrong!! When decompiling the apk file I wasn't adding the dependancy. So for example when I was decompiling the systemui.apk, I was simply using option 9 to decompile which is not right!
What you need to do is copy the systemui.apk file in to place-apk-here-for-modding
Then find the dependency framework so for example the systemui.apk depends on com.htc.recources.apk. So pull this from your phone on to the desktop and then use option 10 to decompile. It will then prompt you for the dependancy apk file. Drag that on to the command window and press enter and it decompiles! It is easy when you know how
Also when you recompile you will probably get errors...You need to take the newly created classes.dex and drop it into the original apk then push to your phone
Where can I find the dependency file??
I got the same problem when I try to Decompile any system app, like "SystemUI.apk" or "Settings.apk" ...etc
Now I understand from you that I need a dependency file, Where can I get it??
I use Samsung Galaxy SL (I9003), Rooted and Deodxed

Can't recompile settings.apk

Sorry if this is a duplicate or in the wrong place, but i cant find any solutions.
I am having trouble recompiling the settings.apk. I decompile it without problems but the apk can't recompile unless I paste in the .arsc file from the stock apk (by unziping). The problem is that when I edit the xml, it needs to make a new .arsc file since I edited xml within the layout folder.
I am using apktool and have had no problems with other apk files. This is on the Samsung galaxy player 5.0 USA.
Another note, if I decompile, put in the resources.arsc file, and recompile, the new apk file is smaller. In addition, if I unzip the recompiled apk I can edit the xml w/o a problem. This is weird because when I unzip the stock settings.apk the xml files are un-readable.
Any Ideas about what I am doing wrong?
Sorry for being a noob.

[Q] [help] Can't decompile APK

So, I'm trying to grab some images from an APK, and I renamed it to a .zip file and accessed its contents. In the 'assets' folder there is only the splash screen and a file named "game.droid", 2.5 mb. Seems like it was made with "YoYoGames Studio" or something. Is there any way to get the images? This is an abandoned APK that was taken down the app store and the dev seems to have abandoned it.
