I never used this app...
But shouldn't it be enough to uninstall the app?
Normally your phone should restore the old system UI then...

Hmm...
Maybe somebody can provide you the stock 4.4.4 system UI apk for the z1 Compact then.
Unfortunately I'm not on stock and have a modified system UI myself so I can't do this.
Then you could flash/replace the stock system UI and it should work again.
Alternatively, downoad a stock based ROM and extract the system UI from there.
Then transfer it to your phone and replace it.
I don't know if this would work... Better make a backup first

not thought of that ... but it can work!

I'll upload the SystemUI.apk from the Kitslim ROM.
It is based on stock 4.4.4
If you are lucky, it works.
Extract it and replace it with your corrupted systemUI.apk on your phone.
Don't flash it. Just copy and paste it to your phone.
This is just a suggestion! But I keep my fingers crossed :fingers-crossed:

I'm not entirely sure if you have to be deodexed.
And yes it belongs to system/app. Permissions should be rw-r-r.
Since your SystemUI is corrupted anyway, you could at least give it a try.
If you are unsure about this, wait for someone who can tell you 100%.
I'm just suggesting what I would try here ^^

I have the zip and i extracted the apk and is in speedsoftware/extracted. All normally but when i select copy, i cant go to system/app because i dont have the back button!! i need a flashable zip please help me

You could try to do it with the ES File Explorer.
It allows you to navigate through the directories without onscreen buttons.
Alternatively mount your phone on your PC and copy it there.
If that does not help, you have to wait until somebody can provide you a flashable ZIP.
I'm on mobile now so I can't help any further for the moment.

I SOLVED IT!!! What I do? first download from my computer the apk of ES file Explorer and the apk of system UI, after that, i will enable in ES file explorer the root mode and the permission for write in system, Then i copy the systemui.apk to system and set permissions and after that i move systemui.apk to system/app. Then reboot and all is done. :good::good::good::good::laugh::laugh::laugh::laugh:

Glad you solved it :good:

Thank you so much. This worked for me too.

Due to a comment made about the .apk by KezraPlanes, who built the ROM I'm using, I'm sure that the installer can be obtained and will probably be installed using RzRecovery, I only asked on this thread to help the OP and myself get an answer.
Don't get me wrong i'm only trying to give you the correct answer ;-)
If apps not are in the ROM where they should be normally you have to flash them in the operating disc.
Another solution would be to copy the right files into the operating system.

You can't install the apk like you can with a user-level app, because this is a system app.
You need to copy the .apk (and the associated .odex file if there is one) directly to /system/app. To that you need to be root, and you need a root-capable file explorer which can re-mount the system partition as writeable. ES File Explorer on the market works fine - check the settings to re-mount the partition as writeable, then copy the file(s) to where they need to be
I believe you can also push the file into /system/app using adb, but that's probably more complicated and risky than using a file explorer on your device.

[help] problems changing status bar notification icons

Hello XDA,
I have been trying (unsuccessfully) to change the status bar notification icon for a new sms from the standard Samsung closed envelope icon to the stock AOSP ICS square smiley face with the little tail. I have already got the icon and it is the correct size and file type (.png) and name (stat_notify_message.png) and I have tried a few ways of adding it into Mms.apk such as simply using 7Zip and decompiling & recompiling numerous times but the end result is always that the Messaging app is being removed completely and I'm having to restore a nandroid backup to get it back.
I have been looking all over XDA and have used trusty old Google to find solutions to my problem. Both come up with lots of different ways to theme, but none that solve my problem (as far as I can see anyway). Could anyone please point me in the right direction to find the guide on how to do it/explain to me how to do it successfully?
I am on a stock odexed XWLPG rom which is rooted.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
If I remember correctly, its in SystemUI.apk

Really? Any idea what the file is called and where it is? I have gone through all of the drawable folders in SystemUI.apk and there is not one in there. The only place I could find it was in Mms.apk and it was called stat_notify_message.png

What I have done in the past is put the mms.apk on your pc. Use 7zip to OPEN ARCHIVE (NOT EXTRACT), then put the NEW .png file with the correct name on your pc. Now without unzipping the mms.apk just use 7zip to find the location of the file you want to replace. Now just hold down on the new .png file and drag it into the corrext location. Then 7zip will ask if you are sure you want to replace it. Hit ok or yes or whatever it says. Now move the mms.apk back onto your phone. Use root explorer and move it to /system. Then long press on it and choose permissions. Change it to rw,r,r. Then long press again and select MOVE. Then navigate to /system/app and paste. Reboot phone. It will work.
For some .apk they are picky like mms.apk dont like being extracted and zipped back up for some reason while others have NO issues when you extract them and rezip and rename then place them in.

Is that "stat_notify_email_generic.png" in the .apk, res, drawable-hdpi, by any chance?
Although, I think RockRatt may be on the ball. He posted while I was writing this.

If you copy the drawable-hdpi folder somewhere outside the zip, look at the 'stat_notify_blahblah.png' then you can see what ones you want to change over

Thank you so much RockRatt, you have solved my problem. Words cannot express my relief, thanks & gratitude for your sound advice. I had tried what you said to do previously, but never with the permission changes. Is that something that needs to be done for every apk or just some? Thanks once again, I am so happy! What an easy was to change the icon. It looks great. See screenshots.
So anyone out there in XDA land that is looking for a quick, easy mod (provided you're rooted) then simply follow RockRatt's easy to follow guide and you will never go wrong. And give him a thanks if his guide helped you in any way!!

You can clear the cache & dalvik-cache either before or after flashing the battery mod. I'd probably try it before and see how you go.
You know how to clear the dalvik-cache, yes??
I think the problem with the VK battery files is they are from a pre jkay release. Now the Rom is using jkay framework I don't think you can flash them. It could be possible to swap the icons like the OP did though using 7zip?

HELP! System ui has stopped working s3 i747

Hey guys, i tried flashing a theme which was the circular battery percentage w/15 toggles last night, via cwm and when i rebooted after flashing it took longer than usual and when it finally booted i got a pop up saying " unfortunately system ui has stopped working" how do I fix it? i didnt have any backup (yes I know im a genius), now, i was wondering, does any of you guys have the stock system ui files to flash it via cwm?
here is the h9 one
thanks, man but when i try and install it it tells me that the app was not installed
you dont intall it rename your old systemui.apk to systemui.bak and place the new one in the same spot it should be system/app then reboot your phone and it should work or you can reflash your rom with out wipe and that will fix it too

thanks for the answers guys, sorry for being such a noob, but where can i find the systemui.apk file? in order to replace it
in the folder system/app
is there any tweak i must know of in order to replace/rename the file systemui.apk it doesn't let me do anything because it's a read only file
and does it matter if mine is a telus i747m?
what app are you using to do this
root explorer, with superuser permissions
ok when your in the folder where systemui is click mount r/w at the top of the screen then you can rename it
thanks man, you saved my life right there, now, the other question is, where did you get the systemui.apk file? and could I find it for a galaxy note i717d as well?
i pulled it from the zip in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1902178
as for the note you should be able to pull it from a stock rom in its section on these forums
Thank you
Thanks so much I was finally able to get 7.1 to work with your UI file!!:laugh::good:

[MOD] No navi button MOD for JB/ICS Razr M xt907 Roms

No USER friendly! Sorry I can't create update.zip
Need Safestrap for BackUP and change permissions (chmod -R 755 /system/framework/framework-res.apk).
This mod can open for you full screen display in Razr M without loose toggle bar, just copy framework with style what you want to /system/framework dir, and change permission to file.
Files in zip for 4.1.1 & 4.0.4 Android.
noVbutton - no navibar in Vertical orientation, yes in Horizontal
noV-Hbutton - no navibar in Vertical orientation, no in Horizontal
origin - original file
Of course you can change all manually if decompile framework-res.apk and find file named dimens.xml
<dimen name="navigation_bar_height">18.0dip</dimen>
<dimen name="navigation_bar_height_landscape">18.0dip</dimen>

Ugh, tried to follow in your footsteps but got totally screwed. Wasnt able to chmod, tried rebooting and stuck in bootloop
Developer only?
Does this work for the developer and regular versions? Anyone tried this with the official JB OTA from Verizon?
I used Root Explorer, not a terminal. Running on stock Verizon Jelly Bean, retail version.
Sent from my XT907
It Works!
Yeah, FINALLY! Get rid of that craptastic waste-of-space navbar.
If anybody want to know, here's how I did it:
Note: I used root explorer
1. I used my windows 7 machine to extract the version of framework-res I wanted.
In my case, i'm on the 4.1.1 JB Verizon OTA, so I chose the 4.1.1 noV-Hbutton.
2.Copy the framework-res of your choice to the root of your internal storage card.
3. Using your file manager (Root explorer in my case) copy the framework file from your internal storage to "\system\" NOT "\system\framework\". Note, if you do this step and it asks you if you want to overwrite "framework-res.apk" STOP!
4. Using your file manager, write down the permissions for your existing "\system\framework\framework-res.apk".
5.Go to the framework-res.apk you just copied "\system\framework-res.apk" and change permissions to match those of your existing framework-res file.
6. AFTER the permissions have been changed and verified (I exited completely out of root explorer, then re-opened it and double checked that the permissions where the same) you can safely move and over-write the file in "\system\framework\".
7. Here's the reason. If you just copy the modified framework file straight from your internal memory to its home in "\system\framework\" the permissions won't be right, and there is a VERY good chance you will end up in an endless bootloop. Copying the file to "\system" first gives you the opportunity to modify its permissions BEFORE overwriting the existing framework file.
Good luck!
Update: Not sure why, and it isn't causing any problems, but every time I reboot the phone, it goes through the "android is upgrading your apps" dialogue".
Guess I got lucky avoiding a bootloop. I just copied the new file, went to /system/framework, renamed the current file, and pasted in the new one. Then all the applications crashed, I rebooted, and changed the permissions. I did have to sign back into all my accounts (Google, Facebook, etc), but zero issues since then.
I'm still loving it! The nav buttons took up so much space. The new version of LMT that you can trigger from the bottom makes it perfect.

Yea just decompile the framework from the rom you want and edit the lines in the op to all zeros. It's located in the "values/dims.xml" (I think). Recompile apk then drop in the meta folder from the original framework inside the new framework (I used 7zip). Just copy to phone, set permissions, and reboot.

Your phone has to be rooted and you need to have any root explorer installed.
1. I'd suggest to back up SystemUI.apk and SystemUI.odex from the folder /system/app and to think about a recovery plan if something goes wrong.
2. Copy my SystemUI.apk into the folder /system and change its permissions to rw-r--r-- (644).
3. Delete SystemUI.odex from /system/app and move SystemUI.apk file from the folder /system to the folder /system/app with a replacement of the existing file.
4. After a successful replacement you will probably get some errors, all you need is to restart the device.
PS if you don't know or understand anything from the above firstly read about it then act or otherwise you can damage your smartphone.
I'm not responsible if anything goes wrong.
That all makes sense, only thing I don't know how to do is change permissions for the apk. How do I do that?
EDIT: using both es explorer or androzip i'm unable to move the file to the system folder. I have no idea how to get it there. Should I try a different file explorer?

If you are deodexed rty mod from here
Flash it with TWRP
Not deodexed, no idea how to.
I'm fully rooted, bootloader unlocked, cwm recovery and also safestrapped.
I managed to get it into the system folder but not into the app folder. Lucky I backed up in cwm, phone kinda needs a working system ui doesn't it!

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
To change the permissions you need to go to the file properties. After that just cut-paste it into the app folder. Es file explorer always works for me . However it had a strange behaviour when I tried to use 'copy to' or 'move to', so just cut-paste.
Finally got this going thanks to your patience! I had to leave the permissions to rwe and only copy/paste would work for some reason. Had to reset my wallpaper and turn data back on after reboot.
Otherwise all good, thanks!
