I need extract and pack framework-res.apk, How ??

[Guest XMasterNinni]

apktool, apk utility, etc...

[Guest twelfd]

apktool, to unpack: apktool.bat d framework-res.apk "new folder"

will unpack to new folder

[Guest redhawkuk]

Framework-res.apk can be unpacked like any other APK however it must be repacked using no compression for this I reprocessed my build with Winzip32.

I also copied the CERT folder from the original APK (zip) file into my new build I wanted the same signed certificate but not sure if that was really necessary.

And finally you need to use the zipalign tool that comes with the Android SDK - http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/tools/zipalign.html

easiest is to use APK Multi-Tool and to follow instructions. it will tell you what to do with system apks

you need to install the framework-res first so it will know where to take resources from.

put the framework-res.apk file of the ROM you want to mess with in apktool folder, open CMD and:

apktool if framework-res.apk[/CODE]

I've never installed framework and I've been fine.

Is it an ics framework-res.apk?
