Please delete. I posted this in CDMA dev thread.


So, I'm trying to find out how to push my new framework-res.apk file into /system/framework.

when I try adb, i get permission denied
when i try adb shell, moving the file from sdcard to /system/framework, cross-device error
es file explorer - moved framework-res.apk to proper folder. it goes back into boot animation, and the file disappears from sdcard, but no change

how can i push the file to /system/framework properly? I changed 10 png files, and no differences are showing all the file names are exactly the same as they should be: sym_keyboard_0.png

I've also looked in moto-res.apk and blu-res.apk

Best bet is preparing a flashable .zip to use in safestrap/bootstrap. Likely the OS is blocking you while it is alive as a safety mechanism.

Fairly simple :)

Open the .zip from a theme and look around/modify, or follow a guide like this... (building your own is the right way to do it)

Manual method

Just be careful, and don't be afraid to ask a dev to verify your work before flashing.

let me know if you figure this out. I want to be able to change a few things in framework-res as well. This how I always thought it worked but haven't tried yet:


1 adb devices

2 adb pull /system/framework/framework-res.apk framework-res.apk
(make a backup copy of this file)

3 open the apk file with winrar

4 make changes


5 adb remount

6 adb push framework-res.apk /system/framework/

7 adb reboot

Look in post 1. Mopar57 posted a link to a zip where all the work is done. All you have to do is move the apk in to the proper folder in the zip. It is what I based my zip's off of.

+1... you'll see a bunch of stuff fc but it'll straighten out after reboot unless something has gone wrong within the apk...

The zip in the link works great. Thanks for the info.
