Hello,

At the beginning i would like to thank you for your hard work.

And now ... i have a question.

When i want to change some .png and 9.png on NovaLuncher i get an error when i recompiling it.

.......
G:\SGS2\THEMING\TickleMyAndroid\working\Nova_Launcher_1.1.2.apk\res\values\public.xml:119: error: Public symbol drawable/widget_resize_handle_bottom declared here is not defined.
G:\SGS2\THEMING\TickleMyAndroid\working\Nova_Launcher_1.1.2.apk\res\values\public.xml:120: error: Public symbol drawable/widget_resize_handle_left declared here is not defined.
........and so more

I don`t touche any xml files but the recompile didn`t make a .apk file :/

Maybe the png/9.png are bad....or.... sth is wrong :/
[Android Themes] Ticklefish:
This could be because of a few different things. Most likely, it's because apktool (which TMA uses to decompile/recompile) isn't fully compatible with ICS yet. The developer hopes to have a new version out very soon and I'll incorporate it as soon as they do.

If you're just changing png's though, you don't actually need to decompile anything. Use 7zip or a similar program to open the apk file then extract the png's you want to change. Make your changes and put them back into the file. Re-install it and that's it.

By the way, you can also get this error if you delete a png from a drawable folder without removing it from public.xml as well. Worth being aware of if you're trying to make an app as small as possible.

do i hav to connect it via disk drive or charge only to pull it..
[Android Themes] nishantsikri13:
pics uploaded when i pull the files....

but when i copy frameork-res.apk in "in" folder and decompile the apk it says error framework-res is not present in the "in" folder...

plzz help wid this great tool....
[Android Themes] Ticklefish:
Thanks for these. I was hoping to get a screenshot of what the tool said after you've pulled the file. It should look something like this..

If you're not being given the option to back up, then you haven't pulled the file. This may be due to a bug that somebody asked about a few posts ago. I've fixed this bug in TMA 2.2 but, before that's released, try typing in a letter or number before you press ENTER when it says "Enter 'x' To Cancel Or Any Other Key To Continue.

With the framework-res.apk you're copying into the "in" folder, try using Option 7 to decompile another file. You should see something like this:

If framework-res.apk isn't listed, then it's not there. It could be spelt incorrectly or it could be invisible.
[Android Themes] nishantsikri13:
when i pull files it doesn't shows like this even when i enter the number....

n when i copy my framework to in folder from cm7 it just gives error...

i tried doing it in my laptop also but it shows the same...

i jst wanna confirm that to files from phone do i hav to select it to mass storage or not??

Have you turned on usb debugging on your phone?
[Android Themes] spyder_pirate:
hi,

i was able to pull and install framework-res.apk but when i select 6-Add Ice Cream Sandwich Transitions, the command prompt just close :(

btw, thank you for the tool.
[Android Themes] Ikkuh84:
Never mind :) Found it
[Android Themes] nishantsikri13:
yup
[Android Themes] Ticklefish:
Without knowing which phone you have, I couldn't say. I'd suggest trying with it off and with it on. It may also be worth going to the XDA forum for your device and asking what options you need to have on for ADB to work.

About you copying your framework directly into the folder, can you share the file here? I can take a look at it and work out what's going on.
[Android Themes] Ticklefish:
Does this happen as soon as you press ENTER after typing '6'?

I suspect I know what's causing this and it's something that's been fixed in version 2.2. Which is uploading very slowly to Mediafire right now..
[Android Themes] Ticklefish:
New version available!

TMA 2.2 is now available for download.

This drastically improves the battery icon adding routine, making it possible to change your battery icon on any rom on any device.

You can also now install to the PC any framework file: framework-res.apk, com.htc.resources.apk, whatever. This makes it possible to decompile even more files.

And there's better error-checking now. That doesn't sound very exciting but trust me, it is!

Tickle My Android still isn't 100% Ice-Cream Sandwich compatible. I'm waiting for the next version of apktool, which is currently being tested.

I'll update the first two posts shortly but I'm sure you clever people will figure out how to use 2.2 without any problem. So head on over to the original post and download it now!!

[Android Themes] flastnoles11:
Re: [TOOL]Tickle My Android 5.0 - DE/RECOMPILE APPS, CHANGE BATTERY ICONS...AND MORE!

Changing recoveries shouldn't mess your phone up as long as you follow all the directions correctly... just note, if using cwm and going to twrp, your old backups will not be compatible with the new recovery and vica versa... just an fyi
[Android Themes] md1982:
thanks once again i may b rattleing ur chains again in future i must say u have a lot of information on android os etc im now a little more clued up is that beta 4 a stable rom ty
[Android Themes] flastnoles11:
Re: [TOOL]Tickle My Android 5.0 - DE/RECOMPILE APPS, CHANGE BATTERY ICONS...AND MORE!

No, its a themeing tool... there are no roms in this thread... to find a rom for your device, go to your devices section and poke around development section until you find something that tickles your fancy... and I know a little about a little when it comes to android... I've done a lot of reading around xda in the year and a half that I've been a member... ;)
[Android Themes] md1982:
lol i am dumb :o do u think that tool would work! seriously u themers devs and others likewise are the androids gods compared to ppl like me but im learning
[Android Themes] flastnoles11:
Re: [TOOL]Tickle My Android 5.0 - DE/RECOMPILE APPS, CHANGE BATTERY ICONS...AND MORE!

Lol I'm still learning also... I think evryone is still learning honestly... and from the few times I have use it, it has worked flawlessly... (don't know that I ever tried beta 4 though :rolleyes: ) need anymore help that doesn't pertain to this tool, please pm me or ask in q&a of your device section as to not clutter this thread with random posts, thanks! :cool:
[Android Themes] md1982:
ok ty
[Android Themes] md1982:
still cant get it to work im using beta 4 tryed mini menu and manual way jus not happening for me iv tryed a 3rd party app to try and flash no luck and i cant find my rom dev to ask him anything as to why this tool will not flash a zip file in cwm
[Android Themes] Ticklefish:
Beta 04 is a relatively small update, it has changes that will make things smoother and error reporting easier. Everything you've told me points to a problem either with your recovery or your rom. A zip either works or it doesn't. It shouldn't cause your phone to reboot or to freeze while you're still in recovery.

The only thing I can suggest now is to find the developer of your rom and ask them for advice. They are the ones who'll know how the rom was built. Have a look through the development section of your device's forum.

DO anyone know how to change the default font color from CYAN to anything else ??

[Android Themes] flastnoles11:
Re: [TOOL]Tickle My Android 5.0 - DE/RECOMPILE APPS, CHANGE BATTERY ICONS...AND MORE!

Xml edits... depends on the phone/rom... but either way, it'll be xml edits...
[Android Themes] Ticklefish:
You need to edit the colours in values/styles.xml.
[Android Themes] PsyJoe:
Hi, I'm trying to change the notification background color like in CM9. I did the following:

- pulled framework-res.apk

- decompiled framework-res.apk

- installed framework

- changed SystemUI.apk/res/values/drawables.xml

<item type="drawable" name="tw_notification_background_null">#330099ff</item>

- recompiled it

- prepared system app for pushing

- made a flashable zip

- added system/app/ file to project

and then I pushed the created zip to the internal sd and flashed it via CWM.

But then I got the following Error message:

[ERROR] We need one sdcard mounted!

[EXIT] Check and configure MOD.config

So I tryed to mount the sdcard via CWM, flashed it again but got the same error message.

Can u tell me what exactly to change in this file to get it working?

Thx
[Android Themes] Ticklefish:
I did some Googling and this looks like it could be an issue with your version of cwm. You could try installing TWRP if that's available for your phone, or another version of cwm.
[Android Themes] PsyJoe:
Thanks m8, just flashed TWRP2.4.0.1 and now everything works fine as it should :good:

EDIT: oh, now after I just tested to decompile and recompile framework-res.apk my phone boots, the bootanimation appears and then there is a blackscreen for about 5 sec. and then the homescreen and statusbar appears as normaly. But then after 2-5 sec. the phone reboots, but without showing the splashscreen and the whole procedure again.

After I flashed the backup everything execpt the home-button works again.

Any Idea?
[Android Themes] Ticklefish:
That's good to know. :good:

Your bootloop is caused by you not installing your resource files before you decompile. Install twframework-res.apk before decompiling framework-res.apk.

Before that though, it may be worth copying the files from your "_in" folder into your "_out" folder, making a zip from those and flashing it to get your phone back to normal.
[Android Themes] PsyJoe:
Just tryed to but it's still the same result.

When i recompile framework-res.apk the following log appears:

Recompiling "framework-res.apk"

----------------

W: Could not find sources
I: Building resources...
I: Building apk file...

----------------

Recompile Successful!

So do i have to pull twframework-res.apk, install twframework-res.apk, pull framework-res.apk, install framework-res.apk and than decompile framework-res.apk in this order?

And after this, recompile both framework apps, prepare system apps for device and then adding both of them to the zip file :confused:

I just saw that the framework isn't installed to the Tickle My Android path, could this be the reason for finding no sources?
[Android Themes] md1982:
hi

me again oh no lol iv hunted high and low for my rom dev with no luck any way could this tool not be working because iv got a 2nd partition on my sd card with link 2 sd and some times when i launch an app it says no sd card etc but when i do a fast reeboot its ok again thought this may be why the tool not working properly:fingers-crossed:
[Android Themes] usf1996:
hey guys,

i'm still trying to create the zip folder but i'm still getting this Error! ZIP File Not Created!.

but the weird thing is:

- when i set the destination to C:\ i get this error and to file is created.

- but when i set the destination to C:\TickleMyAndroid i get the error but a 1.7 MB TMA_03-Feb-13--@1056.zip gets created.

question is, should i flash this file directly or is it corrupted? and why?

thanks again
[Android Themes] Ticklefish:
That does sound like something that might cause a problem. :(

You can flash this without any worries at all, it's not corrupted. This is a bug in the code which I've now hunted down. I'll be releasing 5.1 later today (hopefully) and this will be fixed.

Actually, it's not a bug at all. But, until I get 5.1 uploaded, if the zip is actually made, you can use it without worrying about it. :)
[Android Themes] md1982:
any suggestions about the sd card??

Re: [TOOL]Tickle My Android 5.0 - DE/RECOMPILE APPS, CHANGE BATTERY ICONS...AND MORE!

How should the system/sd storage etc be mounted when u apply the tools zip packages because i think iv changed them in the past aswell

cos was thinking u said in a previous post my framework wasnt decompiling properly maybe this could be to do with the read write on the system i dont konw just maybe a possibilty
[Android Themes] md1982:
maybe try and uninstall java and reinstall the latest update if u not done it already java has only just relised an update i got a message about a week ago saying there is an update availible might work for ya:good:
[Android Themes] Resync:
nope.. dont work

i reinstalled java, installed it again latest (7u13), same message
[Android Themes] md1982:
hold on i just got an update literally jus now for that 7u13 crazy as it sounds iv currently got v6 on here and i know the tool works for that cos iv been using if u can try and go back to previous version see if that works instead maybe it not compatible with 7u13 im not gonna install that jus incase

sorry v 7 11 on here at mo
[Android Themes] Resync:
7u11 didnt work either....

isnt there a way to skip this broken detection?

EDIT1: okay fixed it... i kicked the detection out of the script

now trying to make 29. on to my x10 mini pro ;)

EDIT2: Its still broken it let me skip the initial detection by deleting two rows of script but its still not able to use JAVA....

EDIT3: My fault... i needed to fix my PATH to JDK...

EDIT4:

I use a X10 Mini Pro with the latest MiniCM7 and nAa 14 kernel.

So after my little java accident i managed to follow the guide.

I Pulled the "framework-res.apk" from my phone (phone\system\framework) via MyPhoneExplorer.

I backup'ed > decompiled it.

After that i added included Battery Icon number 29. (---> all working great no errors or anything else)

I recompiled it > prepared it for pushing > i went to main menu 7 choose 3 add system\framework > 7 create zip file

So i placed it on my sdcard went into CWM selected it to flash... but it wont work

CWM tells me aborted Error 0, nothing more

(E: Error in /sdcard/xyz.zip (Status 0)) Installation aborted

I Tried the whole thing again (full clean) same result....

Please Help.

EDIT5: So after trying a "selfbuild" zip... problem is still the same.

So must be the program
[Android Themes] md1982:
good work this tool is awesome if all goes well

---------- Post added at 09:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:34 PM ----------

[Android Themes] md1982:

blimey that sounds past me mate u need to talk to ticklefish he will be able to help u better than i can just wait till he gets back to u he knows what he talkin about im having problems also but different im sure he will show up soon
[Android Themes] Ticklefish:
A Status 0 error is down to the update-binary being incompatible with your system. I posted about this a little while ago but I guess I need to mention it in the op.

There is a fix. Take an update-binary from a zip that you know works on your current setup and copy it into the user_files folder, then start the tool. Tickle My Android will automatically replace the update-binary it normally uses with the one in the user_files folder. Then any zip files you make should work with your recovery.

Try it and let me know how it goes. My old phone is a X10 Mini Pro and I've still got it somewhere so I can easily test stuff for you.
[Android Themes] Ticklefish:
The best thing I can suggest is to give it a try. Just make a nandroid recovery first. From everything that you've said, I'm really starting to get the feeling that something isn't quite right with your setup. It could be that your sdcard isn't properly partitioned, or maybe it's corrupted or.. Well, I don't know. It might be worth asking someone who's got the same rom as yours if they're having any problems like this.

Personally, I'd be tempted to make a copy of my personal data on a pc and wipe the phone and sdcard before redoing everything. But that's up to you, it's a bit of an extreme move.
[Android Themes] Resync:
Tryed that today, i used the update-binary from the x10minipro keyboard changer (sticky).

After i selected it to flash it stuck (freeze)

Freeze... i waited ~10 minutes, doesnt work.

Kicked the Battery out booted it, nothing is changed :D

Yes, extract Tickle My Android to 'c:\'. If you extract to anywhere else, you'll need to edit the shortcut in the folder.

[Android Themes] Ticklefish:
New version released!

Keen-eyed readers may have noticed something slightly different about the op.. That's right, v5.1 is here!

This has the very latest apktool, released just a few days ago, as well as a few bug fixes to make this the smoothest, fastest version of Tickle My Android yet! Check out the op for the download link and enjoy!

Work has also begun on Version 6. I've had a lot of feedback over the months since TMA was first started and it's time to have a rethink about how everything works. There's a lot of functionality built into the tool that isn't used much and there are a few ways that things could be done better.

And, of course, there are always more icons I can offer you!

If you want to see anything added to, or taken away from, Version 6..let me know!
[Android Themes] danieldmm:
Very good news :)

In 5.1 you are still using fast appt ?
[Android Themes] Ticklefish:
Yes.

And no.

The appt used is made by the dev of apktool and incorporates fast appt as well as a few other things. It's, possibly, the best appt available.
[Android Themes] danieldmm:
Nice one, updating 5.0 beta :)
[Android Themes] Ticklefish:
Right, this is for you. It's just a generic update.zip using the same update-binary as the gapps zip linked to in the MiniCM7 op.

Basically, open the zip, copy your files to the app or framework folder as needed and flash.

BUT make a nandroid backup first! Because this is just an ordinary zip file, it won't backup the files it's replacing.

Not the solution I was looking for, but it's a solution!
