For me? No, I don't have SGS2. And my resources.arsc is bigger than the original one coz I added your files (translation) and new resources.arsc includes all old resources and your resources

argh i forgot that^^

No, thats why bugs that on are on phones that we (The Staff) don't have usually take longer to fix, because we have no way to properly test.

BurgerZ · May 5, 2012

Mark, how did you add English T9 (or it was in all ROMz by default)?

DaLuigi3 · May 6, 2012

Hi,

now after thousand reboots and changes and and and.... I MADE IT

@ BurgerZ
your FixCrap.exe changes toooo much .xml files.

anims.xml
ids.xml
layouts.xml
xmls.xml

The 4 above will be shown as an error if you don't fix these.
arrays.xml will not shown but you also have to fix it.

arrays.xml

but thank you anyway for your help

@Mark

after you said to me i have to add a - 2 on apktool.yml i always used the FixCrap.exe from BurgerZ and for that i got the Bootloops.
But now with the 5 fixes above and the apktool.yml fix i made it

Thank you for your help

I used xdaautotool (apktool 1.4.3)
installed framework-res.apk, then framework-miui-res.apk,and twframework-res.apk.
Decompile is fine, but recomplie shows this errors.
I hope you can help me.
Thanks

Your aapt is screwed up.

If you can't run aapt at command line. Its not setup right. Make sure aapt is in your path.

vagyula · May 10, 2012

How to set it up correctly?

DaLuigi3 · May 11, 2012

copy aapt.exe from your android-sdk folder (C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools) in your apktool folder......

DaLuigi3 · May 20, 2012

hi,

i have a new problem. Deskclock force closes while opening the clock...
Logcat says something about FileNotFound Exception res/xml-de/timezones.xml. But i have this folder with the timezones.xml...
No error while decompile/recompile

Do i have to fix some .xml files?

thank you

Noob question here: If you translate MIUI, will apps like Facebook be on the translated language?

Nope, only APKs you decompile, translated and re-compile.

Though Facebook is a bad example. It already has almost every language known to man native.

Hi Mark.
I'm don't understand this step:

5. Re-build and copy resources.arsc to the orginal apk. (additionally classes.dex if editing small code as well).

Can you show me example for this

Thanks!

7za u -r -mx0 -tzip MIUIStats.apk resources.arsc.

That injects resources.arsc into MIUIStats.apk without modifying the signature.

Not sure what should i do :-(

, put - 3 - 4 - 5 and i got these msgs

Code:

Exception in thread "main" brut.androlib.err.CantFindFrameworkResException

which seems legit :-"
how should i compile it?
which step should I take?

iBotPeaches · Mar 13, 2013

^

1) Update apktool to v1.5.2
2) Actually install the frameworks http://miui.connortumbleson.com/other/apktool/frameworks/
3) it'll work

Thats not enough. You have to install all frameworks one by one:

Code:

apktool if framework-res.apk
apktool if SemcGenericUxpRes.apk
apktool if 3.apk
apktool if 4.apk
apktool if 5.apk
apktool if framework-miui-res.apk
