[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Attitude.SSJ:
Kernels are always flashed through fastboot... Doesn't matter what os version you are flashing for..
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Ghostfreak NB:
What other methods you know of? To flash kernels?

Why would a kernel cause any problem if you do it the right way?

Well I heard thats possible to do that with flashtool.

I wasnt sure about downgrading kernel.
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Attitude.SSJ:
Flashtool also uses fastboot method only...
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro] Ghostfreak NB:
Oh lolz

Flashtool or not,

All custom kernels are flashed via fastboot :p

Only difference being either Cmd method and the fastboot option method within Flashtool

Btw Flashtool is a tool not a method per Se :cool:;)

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] shockwaverider:
I know that there are already several thousand threads on forums spanning the internet involving recompiled framework-res.apk's causing bootloops, but the ones that are actually useful pretty much all say the same thing, that is to replace the meta-inf folder and AndroidManifest.xml from the newly built apk with the ones from the original file. Needless to say, that hasn't worked in my case, and neither has changing from apk-manager (wanam's latest version) to using command line apktool or from using flashable zips to adb pushing the file to /system/framework. Primary and secondary frameworks are both installed. The apk decompiles and recompiles without errors. SystemUI.apk, the only other apk I've worked on thus far, flashes without issues. I don't have a lot of experience with adb, and right now I can't remember the exact error it gave me, "protocol error" perhaps? Firmware is deodexed 9.0.1.D.0.10 / Nordic "SuperSport".

Quite probably I'm doing or not doing something really basic that will make me look and feel foolish once this is resolved, but I'm out of ideas and I just want to start modding some 9.png's. Does anyone have any suggestions?

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] shockwaverider:
Thanks, but that didn't work either. Here's exactly what I did, maybe there's something obvious I'm doing wrong:

1. Dragged the framework-res.apk from your zip to my apktool folder.

2. Decompiled with the command "apktool d framework-res.apk". Without the quotes, of course.

3. In this case I didn't modify anything, I simply recompiled with the command "apktool b framework-res". It gave me this:

C:\apktoolv3>apktool b framework-res

I: Building apk file...

4. Deleted assets, res and resources.arsc from the original framework-res.apk inside your zip. Dragged those folders/files from within the rebuilt apk in my framework-res/dist folder to the original apk.

5. Dragged the framework-res.apk from your zip to a flashable zip. I've used this zip successfully to flash modded versions of SystemUI.apk, so I don't see a reason it wouldn't work for this.

6. Booted into TWRP recovery.

7. Wiped cache and dalvik cache.

8. Flashed the zip.

9. Bootlooped.

Am I missing something? I've gotten so used to using apk-manager that I wouldn't be surprised if it's just something I'm doing wrong in apktool.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] gregbradley:
you need to install the semcgenericUPS file as well....I cant think of the exact commands now, but I will try and dig them out and post them tomorrow...
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] shockwaverider:
If you mean install it as a secondary framework in apktool, I've done that.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] gregbradley:
ok, I think you may need to ask in the apktool thread in android hacking and develpment section
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] shockwaverider:
Before I go asking there I was thinking it might be worth starting over from scratch, using a completely stock firmware instead of spida_singh's modded version and flashing Nuri's deodexing package. Not that I really expect it to help, but it's worth a shot.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] NuriJ:
You were right man.. I just changed the framework-res for the first time today and it didn't boot. Then i've tried without even touching anything.. Just with a clean recompile but still, it bootloops
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] shockwaverider:
Frustrating, isn't it? I haven't had much time these past few days to really follow up any more on this, like gregbradley said, we might need to ask in the apktool thread, but I've wanted to make sure I've tried absolutely everything else before I ask there. I think I'm pretty much at that point now.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] gregbradley:
Yes, I think the apk tool is not compatable with ICS framework without some modifications. There are work arounds but asking the people who use it most will get you the best answers
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] shockwaverider:
True. The jump from GB to ICS was a huge PITA for me, and I'm somewhat dreading upgrading to JB, as far as theming goes.

I finally just found this version of APK Manager in my DropBox, it's the one I used for months without problems but couldn't find it before because I stuck it in the wrong folder when I changed computers recently. Nuri, if you want to try it go ahead, I'm at work now and won't be able to do anything with it for at least another 12 hours, and possibly not until this weekend. I know it's a long shot, but it can't hurt to try.

EDIT: I also found this in the Xperia T/V/whatever Apps & Themes forum in the "[MOD] Reduced size onscreen buttons" thread, basically that another user (with a different device?) solved his bootloops by replacing the resources.arsc in his rebuilt apk with the original. I haven't followed that up because to be honest, that's only mildly useful for me as I tend to do a lot of modifications in /values/styles.xml as well as in other values files, so of course I need to be able to use the rebuilt resources.arsc. But for anyone not doing any edits in values, this may be enough of a workaround to get a working framework-res.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] NuriJ:
I'll try :good:

..about that post.. He wrote that nothing changed, if he replaced the resources.arsc with stock one. Of course nothing would change then..

Hmm atleast i got the point, it's the resources.arsc file which apktool builds that's unable to boot with.

So yea maybe it's something with apktool
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] shockwaverider:
I'm afraid I didn't have any better luck with that version of apk-manager, either with or without replacing resources.arsc. :(

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Ticklefish:
I suspect I know where you're going wrong..

Try Tickle My Android. Install SemcGenericUxpRes.apk before decompiling framework-res.apk. Then make your changes, recompile and use Tickle My Android's Prepare System Files For Flashing option.

If you get no luck, let me know and I can try a few things..
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] shockwaverider:
Thank you, helpful stranger! :)

I had a quick go of it when I got home (from a 16-hour workday no less), and so far it's been more of the same. I'll post details in your thread when I'm feeling a bit more functional, but basically I did what you said. Your tool failed on creating a flashable zip, and I once again had bootloops when I used my own zip. Regardless, I'm really impressed with TMA, and I hope with your help I can get some real use out of it!

Sv: [Q] V - Bootloops with modded framework-res.apk usual fixes not helping

Anyone tried with the new jelly bean framework?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] shockwaverider:
Haven't tried yet, and tbh I haven't even had the time lately to upgrade to JB. Taking a quick look around the threads, it looks like we now have working cwm, is this right? After the bootloop problems I had with ICS, there's no way I'll try modding framework-res without recovery, lol.

btw NuriJ, is there a version of your modded shutdown menu for JB?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] NuriJ:
Yes working on that.

.. I just had time and tried to today. It doesnt boot.. just like ics, it stops at bootanimation and bootloops :(

btw yes see dev section vdsirotkin managed to include cwm into the stock jb kernel
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] shockwaverider:
Cool that there's recovery, but that's a huge bummer that framework-res still won't flash. Like I said, I've been too busy lately to do much about it, I was working on it with ticklefish in his thread but we didn't really get anywhere. :(
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] NuriJ:

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] shockwaverider:

Just a stupid question... How does adb trigger a reboot? If we can still use the reboot command in terminal emulator, would some kind of workaround be possible using whatever activity that command uses? Sorry if this is a completely ridiculous suggestion, I admit I have no idea what I'm talking about, but this is the only thing that comes to mind for me.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] shockwaverider:
So I've finally posted something about this in the apktool thread. I'm assuming that nobody's yet had any success with this?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] NuriJ:
That would be possible but.. I think its a "crude" way to do it :/ because intsead you could just add a script shortcut to your homescreen and press it everytime you want to reboot
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] shockwaverider:
Yeah, I figured it would be a pretty dirty workaround to do something like that, but then my knowledge is pretty limited, so I threw it out there. :) Oh well.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] NuriJ:
The shutdown files were moved to services.jar in the jb update :banghead:

I will update it asap :D Still, too bad we cant edit main framework yet..
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] shockwaverider:
Man, you're making it hard to stay on ICS! :D I'll probably jump over to JB now that you've got this and the lidroid mod worked out.

Still hoping that someone cracks the code on this framework problem. I don't know enough to even make an educated guess. :(
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] shockwaverider:

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] shockwaverider:
I've always used winrar. I suppose I can try with 7zip and see what happens.

I'll follow up with that link tomorrow when I'm hopefully not so tired, thanks for that. I've also got some suggestions to try out from the apktool thread, so hopefully this is on its way to being solved. But again, I won't be able to do anything until tomorrow evening.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] sendust7:
If it is any consolation, I am working on a CM10 ROM port and have run into similar problems after making a simple change to /system/framework/framework-res.apk: Phone hangs at boot animation. I haven't tried recompiling without changes, but I imagine the outcome would be the same.

I am using Virtuous Ten Studio, 7-zip and CSigner.

CSigner yields no errors except it doesn't zipalign because it claims that it can't find ADB --- even with ADB in PATH and/or inside the CSigner directory.

Anyway, I wonder if it is necessary to build framework-res.apk from scratch...?

[UPDATE]: A potential option is to use overlays to modify the framework-res.apk configuration: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2017043.

Here's a quote: "It is in the source code tree, and is a much cleaner method for altering framework resources at runtime than the procedure others have been using of decompiling, editing and re-building, imo. "
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] shockwaverider:
Indulge a noob here... If I understood correctly, that method overrides framework-res.apk's resources.arsc? In other words, this is basically in lieu of modding xml's in the res/values folder? Or can it be used to override anything, anywhere in framework-res? I'm all over this if it works, especially if the "traditional" methods don't work, but I'm trying to get my head around how, for example, to use this to "edit" styles.xml, which has a lot of identical entries. From what I took away from the thread you linked to, everything gets dumped into config.xml, with no structure a la res/values. Or am I missing something?

And then a bit of a status update: As suggested in the apktool thread (and as I should have thought to do anyway), I diffed the public.xml from the original framework-res.apk and my rebuilt version. Every single id value in it is different. Specifically, every value in the original begins 0x010xxxxx, whereas in the recompiled version every one starts 0x030xxxxx. Here's where my noobness comes in again (and yes, I will google it) - I honestly don't know enough about how public.xml is built during compile to know if this is out of the ordinary. I do know that when I did the same thing with SystemUI.apk just to see what would happen, the diff showed identical files. So there's that, hopefully it's potentially useful. I haven't checked back in on the apktool thread with this, that's my next stop.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] peetr_:
Yes, this is really helpful, now we at least know why.

Because of this 1 to 3 change, all resources are unavailable.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] shockwaverider:
That's what I figured, but I wanted somebody smarter than me to say it first! :D

And confirmed in the apktool thread:

Guess it's time to start using those workarounds. :eek:
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] peetr_:
The first is a good idea. But we would need to know what to hex edit.

The second is a bad idea, with almost 8000 resources. :)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] shockwaverider:
Yeah, just out of curiosity I fed the resources.arsc from an original/untouched and from a decompiled/recompiled (otherwise unmodified) framework-res into vbindiff and as expected, basically the whole window was red. Even assuming that public.xml is the only thing getting corrupted (I suppose it wouldn't be a bad idea to go through and diff everything in /res/values just to be sure), is there any way to isolate and somehow patch that part of the hex code into resources.arsc?

(edited because I'm stupid! :p )
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] shockwaverider:
OK, I read up a bit on the thread that sendust7 linked to, which in turn links to another thread HERE. It seems like it may be a workaround for the problem we're having, but I'm not all that confident in my ability to get it working without a little bit of feedback about potential problems. To that end I've posted the following in that thread:

I guess the main thing to do is just to do it, so I'm going to take a crack at it as soon as I can, but if anyone here cares to point out whatever flaws they spot, that would be helpful as well! :)
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] peetr_:
Seems like a long journey. I give up for now. Much can be done without framework-res modifications.
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] Kyrie1965:
Are there any new methods to compile worked framework-res.apk?
[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] shockwaverider:
I guess not, I haven't had any time lately to spend trying to get the workarounds happening. I have an entrance exam in a couple weeks, maybe after that. But that's just workarounds, I think it's going to take some changes to apktool to be able to successfully compile it.
