[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Swiftks:
Here's the APK Manager I use for the systemui.apk

For the framework-res.apk, I've been using NunHugger's found here:

^^^This may also work for the systemui.apk^^^

**Not 100% sure, as I already had my systmui edited the way I like it, before I discovered Nun's for framework-res. <--- Works just fine!

Regardless of which you use, you will first need to pull the framework-res.apk, place it in the same folder as your apktools, and issue the following command from that folder: apktool if framework-res.apk <--- yes, I realize you may already know this, but someone else may not.

*Note: You don't have to do this every time, just the first time.

Using NunHugger's apktools:

-Issue the above command for framework-res.apk

- With framework-res.apk still in same folder (that being the folder that all of Nun's apktools are in) issue this command to decompile: d framework-res.apk

- Now you have a framework folder... If you received any decompileing errors, it was most likely because you decompiled a already modded framework-res.apk, and you are getting 9.png errors from the res\drawable-xhdpi folder; you will need to delete the 9.png files that have no preview image in that folder, and also delete the regular .png image files that are associated with said 9.png file (i.e. you will be deleting 2 files for every 9.png that did not decompile correctly - the blank 9.png file and the custom "regular" png file, that should be a 9.png file). Replace these custom png files with correct 9.png files; to do this see draw9patch.bat in the tools folder of android sdk, or pull stock images from a stock decompile, or pull properly compiled 9.pngs files from a custom theme that decompiled correctly.

or

decompile a stock framework-res (see dev sections), as this should not result in any errors when decompiling.

- Edit your framework-res folder accordingly.

- Recompile using this command: b -f -d framework-res

- You will get all kinds of aatp warnings, but these are just warnings... you should still be ok. If you got any errors, then something is amiss, and you should check that you did all the above ok, or ask for help in the proper thread (start with the hoe to theme sticky in this section).

- Now, I don't know if this is the proper way to do this, but it's what I do and it works for me... You should now have a "build" folder inside your framework-res folder; follow these instructions:

a) Open your framework-res.apk with winrar (I guess you can use something else, but I use winrar). Stay in the main root folder and keep this open.

b) In another window navigate to your compiled framework-res/build/apk/ folder and highlight and drag res folder & resources.arsc file to your opened framework-res winrar window. You can ignore the AndroidManifest.xml, as we want that to stay "stock".

c) Set storage/compression to "NONE or Store" when copying the files via winrar.

d) Close winrar.

- Place modded framework-res.apk in a flashable .zip file, like the one in the OP here, making sure to put in the same place as the framework-res.apk (/system/framework). Overwrite the existing framework-res file in the zip if one already exists, and set compression to store/none. You can also delete any other apks or files you don't want flashing, like the /apps folder or media folder, etc.

- Flash in CWM.​

Got all that... :eek:

Hope this helps out.
