can someone help me? thx

[chirayudesai]

same again :P
Exception in thread "main" brut.androlib.AndrolibException: brut.directory.PathNotExist: apktool.yml

check all directories (of the decompiled apps n frameworks) - for missing apktool.yml

[DarthJonathan]

dunno i done what u said i still stuck at service.jar errorr :(

[DarthJonathan]

i'd copy all apktool.yml from the i9100 folder keeps getting that error :(

[chirayudesai]

did u do it like this?

make apktool-if /path/to/framework-res.apk

also, open apktool.yml - u'll understand what it means - check all the files again then

[DarthJonathan]

okey i passed the framework-res error but still stucks at the service.jar

[DarthJonathan]

i've tried this
jonathan@jonathan-VirtualBox:/MiCode/i8150$ make apktool-if /services.jar.out
install framework resources...
/home/jonathan/MiCode/tools/apktool if .build/framework-res.apk
I: Framework installed to: /home/jonathan/apktool/framework/1.apk
/home/jonathan/MiCode/tools/apktool if /home/jonathan/MiCode/miui/system/framework/framework-miui-res.apk
I: Framework installed to: /home/jonathan/apktool/framework/6.apk
unzip JONATHAN_ROM_RC4.zip system/framework/twframework-res.apk -d .build

Try re-unpacking the services.jar from your source rom. What you should end up with is a folder called services.jar.out that contains two things -- a folder called smali and a file called apktool.yml. If that's not what you have than you did something wrong.

[DarthJonathan]

nope it just came out with : "META-INF" and "classes.dex" whyyy???? :( i really want to use thiss :(

[chirayudesai]

you need to decompile it, not extract :P

[DarthJonathan]

i don't know whats wrong :(
