How r u able to add another button ???

Hmm, will we see a fixed back button as ROM's continue to mature? I'm sort of OCD but on all the ROM's i've tried that i can resize the navbar + this mod the triangle just looks iffy like the above screenshot above instead of scaling better like the home and recents button.

in the quote above where its red i can see your problem. your trying to recompile it.
in most cases the proper command is apktool b framework-res
there is no apk at the end cause when you decompile " apktool d framework-res.apk' it will decompile >>>framework-res <<<< there isnt no apk so try that again but instead of b use d to compile first

I know there are lots of apktools out there already, but I made this for two specific reasons:
#1: To be very straightforward (Unlike other tools...)
#2: To get off the Computer and go out and enjoy Life ​Features:
This tool is the first to support APKs, JARs, and ZIPs simultaneously!
This tool is also the first to support HTC Sense and MIUI decompiling. So no more errors
Sign APK | JAR | ZIP
Zipalign APK | JAR | ZIP
Drag, type, or D | R | ecompile all APKs and JARs
Clean the installation of the frameworks in your User directory
Updated sources. Ex. apktool.jar
One way ticket
Very smart signing options.
Very smart exit options... LOL
Requirements:
Windows OS
Java JDK & JRE
Problems?:
Make sure your file has no spaces
When typing a file to Decompile, you must include its file extension
When typing a folder to Recompile, exclude the file extension
Help improve!!This is still a first release, but it's very stable. Help me to improve by leaving a comment below.
Here's some ideas you can suggest to me:
Polish it up even more
I found a bug! Please fix ...
Add this feature please ...
Or anything you want to comment... LOL XD
What I will not do:
Make this multi-platform (Mac OSX & Linux) -- Because I do not know how (And not willing to...)
Changelog-
June.28.2012 (v0.02) -​
Re-wrote the entire script from scratch (Now much better)
Simplified and Cleaned up Menu
Added ICS support
Added feature to install twframework-res.apk
Changed text color to default
Added a feature called: One way ticket
It basically guides you through the whole installation of frameworks, Decompile then Recompile, and then sign & zipalign.
Able to customize text color and background color
June.26.2012 (v0.01) -​
First Release
Built using Windows XP
Includes lots of basic and extra features
Nothing much ...

Your recompiled apk should be in the dist folder and the contents of it should be in build folder

[GUIDE][MOD][ICS+] Transparent Incoming Call [NooB Fiendly][NOW CWM ZIP]

Introduction:
We all know that Android from ICS+ provides big beautiful contact images that are visible, obviously when someone calls us...
While all this is good... I noticed multiple ROM's extending the black screen below the animation over the image to display the subtle call accept/reject animation. And now that's not a good thing... bear with me, "personal opinion"... So here is a guide to get rid of this...
Preview:
Still don't understand what I mean? Have you seen the below happening...?
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Yes that's exactly what I mean... The right image shows what happens... The left is the solved image...
So here goes...
I AM TOO LAZY:
I've got you covered... Flash this ZIP.
Its a fully transparent Dialer mod. It was tested on CM10 and should work on any ROM in theory.
PS: Don't forget to mount /system in recovery... Just in case.!
Requirements:
Java Development Kit
APKTool
AAPT
Notepad++
A Brain [Necessary]
Android SDK [Not Necessary]
Steps:
Done on Samsung Galaxy S GT-I900 Running Slim Bean v2.1
Install JDK and prepare system. [Doubts Click Me]
Prepare a folder with apktool.jar and aapt.exe, Lets say C:\APKTOOL
Extract the framework-res.apk and Phone.apk from the ROM package and move to the same folder.
Right-click while holding the shift button in the folder to open command prompt in the target folder.
Or navigate to the folder you are currently working using
Code:
C:\Users\mnazim\> cd C:\APKTOOL
Install the framework by using the below command.
Code:
C:\APKTOOL\> java -jar apktool.jar if framework-res.apk
Decode the Phone.apk using the following command
Code:
C:\APKTOOL\> java -jar apktool.jar d Phone.apk
Wait...mmm... K...
Navigate to the folder thus created
C:\APKTOOL\Phone\res\layout
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Open the file with notepad++
incall_touch_ui.xml
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Go to the part that starts with the tag
Code:
[B]com.android.internal.widget.multiwaveview.GlowPadView[/B]
Check for the property [Probably on the first line itself]
Code:
[B]android:background[/B]
Change the value from
Code:
[B]@android:color/black[/B]
or
Code:
[B]@color:incall_call_banner_background[/B]
to
Code:
[B]#a0000000[/B]
or change to the following for full transparency
Code:
[B]#00000000[/B]
Save and exit.
Re-Build the Phone app with the following command from the same Command Prompt Window. [Notice the "b" for build, previously it was "d"]
Code:
C:\APKTOOL\> java -jar apktool.jar b Phone
Wait...mmm...mmm...mmm... K...
The output apk will be in the following folder.
C:\APKTOOL\Phone\dist\Phone.apk
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Copy the apk to /system set permissions and reboot. [Create backup in case. Rename the old one to "Phone.apk.bak" ]
Or make a flashable ZIP and flash from recovery. Use this as a reference.
Done.

A little off topic, but do you have any idea about how to change the blue background where it says "Incoming Call"? I ran across this because I thought incall_call_banner_background was it, but it sure isnt Any suggestions?

Please try installing the SystemUI.apk along with framework-res as it may solve some issues.! Will confirm and inform ASAP.!
Code:
java jar apktool.jar if SystemUI.apk
I have tried your command for SystemUI.apk but i get an error and it is not loaded.
I really am a noob with this stuff, can you please give me some more advice?

Hi everyone!
Because it looks like we have practically ready for official release sammy JellyBean seems to me it's time to make our themes better
Here's a simple guide how to make homescreen statusbar transparent:
1. You should decompile SystemUI.apk
2. Open /SystemUI/res/layout/tw_super_status_bar.xml and change android:background to 100% transparent:
Code:
<com.android.systemui.statusbar.phone.StatusBarWindowView [B]android:background="#[COLOR="Red"]00000000[/COLOR]"[/B] android:focusable="true" android:fitsSystemWindows="true" android:descendantFocusability="afterDescendants"
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:systemui="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/com.android.systemui">
3. Save /SystemUI/res/layout/tw_super_status_bar.xml
4. Open /SystemUI/res/values/drawables.xml and edit this line to get transparency you need, for example, 100% transparent:
Code:
<item type="drawable" name="status_bar_background">[B]#[COLOR="red"]00000000[/COLOR][/B]</item>
5. Save /SystemUI/res/values/drawables.xml
6. Recompile SystemUI.apk
Done... Now you have 100% transparent homescreen statusbar
A short hint:
#00000000 - 100% transparency
#3F000000 - 75% transparency
#7F000000 - 50% transparency
#BF000000 - 25% transparency
If you only need a ready-made statusbar you can find it here - [THEME][JB] 15 Toggle Buttons☆NEW Center Clock☆Transparent Statusbar☆and more
Enjoy! And if you have any questions, you can always ask me
If you like it you can always Rate (★★★★★) this Thread, Press Thanks button or simply buy me a beer! :good: and don't forget about credits
Maybe a stupi q, but the status bar is transparent only in home screen and not in apps?
Thx for a great guide.

Yes in this case but to be honest it's better on my opinion because it was very ugly on ICS.
Nice! Will try to do this when (if ) I have time .

You should change background source in tw_status_bar_expanded.xml, it could be android:background="@drawable/new_bg" for example, then add new_bg.png in /SystemUI/res/drawable-xhdpi and recompile SystemUI.apk

Thanks my friend for your opinion!
Thanks for 100% trick transparent trick.
OK,
I've decomplied the systemui from cm10 (jellybean) and do not have the tw_super_status_bar.xml file. There is a super_status_bar.xml
There is no /SystemUI/res/values/drawables.xml ...there isn't even the values directory.
What are you guys using to edit these .xml's? I've got like wordpad++ and an actual .xml editor but its still all garbled.
Or is getting a transparent statusbar on CM10 just not happening?
btw I have a USCC S3, I understand this thread is for the international model.
If this solution isn't going to work for me, any where I can look to figure out how to do this?
Thanks everyone for your patience and help.
Am I wrong in saying that CM10 is jellybean?

Yes, there is no tw_super_status_bar.xml in CM10 because it is not sammy based rom. You can try to edit super_status_bar.xml.
Do you quite understand what "decompile" means? You should use apktool to decompile .apk file.

Well I can't get it apktool to work properly. This is really irritating. Can you tell me which java verison(s) I need to make apktool work?
OR I could just send you the .apk and you can give it a shot for me. Probably would take you 10 seconds!
Please help a brother out!
I've uploaded the systemui.apk to my server

[Guide] [Fix] Some Fix For Apktool For android

hello friends
I have seen too many users got problem using apktool for android.
I also got problem...
But i studied the problem n just tried to fix it & guess what..??
My thinking fixed that problem
Now i want to help you all
You want to download apktool & its data files ( dont ask me for that )
Also you need a rooted phone to use rootex & apktool)
Guide 1
Now the steps:-
follow carefully......
This fix is If you get error about Mydata
1) Download apktool & data files ( i have the apktool 4.1 armel version dont know it will work for another version
2) Extract it to Sdcard/*Here*
3) Go to sdcard/Apktool & install apktool4.1.apk
4) Open it Give root access..
5) Now in aptool go to Sdcard/Apktool & select any file( tap&hold for 2 seconds) & there will be a option of "Set as apktool data folder"
6) now use rootex or similar file manager & go to system/framework/ &copy framework_res.apk to ur sdcard
7) Tap on framework_res.apk scroll down & select "IMPORT AS FRAMEWORK"
8) Now copy framework-res.apk to your sdcard (via rootex) tap on framework_res.apk & select 1st option decompile all ( If you get any error in decompiling then follow next step)
9) Open rootex go to data/data/per.pqy.apktool/ now delete mydata file
10) Now open rootex & go to sdcard/apktool/ & use multi select option n select all files & folders & only unselect "apktool4.1.apk" now copy all that files to "mydata" folder (make new folder anywhere in sdcard )
11) After completing step 10 then copy/move "mydata" folder to data/data/per.pqy.apktool/*Here* via rootex...
12) you have completed all steps now no more steps just open apktool n modify your Device system files or any apk/jar
*+*+REMEMBER+*+*
This Errors was Fixed by me no one helped me to fix this problem or i not copyed someons idea (its my fixing style)
So give all credits to me....,,,,
