You must first decompile the framework with apktool. That way, the xmls will be decoded and perfectly readable.

You can replace graphics with ninjamorph from play store, but you'll need some resources for ldpi (extracted theme, or systemui/framework-res from other ldpi device) you can also use metamorph, which is easier and have pre-made themes

[Q] META_INF

what is the purpose of this folder META_INF?
i am trying to make rom for galaxy pro.. in dxisda's kitchen,, and i have a ques?
after modifying rom in kitchen can i use meta-inf folder form any other rom and paste it in my rom//?? will it work?
If I'm not wrong, meta_inf folder stores the certificate of the apps, as well as the updater-script. I think you will have to change some things in it.

It's not exactly the same, as many files in apk are encrypted, and by decompiling you make those files accessible to edit

if you just decompile it, it won't work. if you want to edit something in framework (any xml file) you have to decompile it, and after you've done, compile it again. if you make any errors, it won't work
