Theming Guide for changing system text settings.

Ok, you are doing 9 to decompile. Go to /res/values to edit styles.xml. Save the file and go back to apk manager. Then do 11 to compile, and then 12 to sign. Taking the repacked-signed.apk and renaming to framework-res.apk.

How are you pushing it to the system?

yes. I am just renaming it to framework-res, not framework-res.apk as it should already be an apk, right? I am pushing it with adb and pushing to system/framework

Don't assume, turn you extensions on to make sure.

I just looked... it renamed it framework-res.apk.... so it looks like it has a double extension will try again. lol.

still loops

Same here as well... boot loops after adding modified drawable-hdpi and layout folders in the apk. Does boot with the -V4 extensions on the folders before changing .pngs and layout .xml's but getting multiple fc's. I'm using HxD to modify the styles.xml, could that be causing the issue?

Ya, I did a decompile, compile, sign of a stock framework without modding anything. Still loops. I really wanna figure this out.

Try doing that adb push in recovery or use an update.zip. I use an update.zip and have no issues so far.

edit: here is a template update.zip if anyone whats to try it template_update.zip

On the non-hex modifications, is there any way to make them a color other than black or white?

yes go into values/color and find where it calls to the two color and change them to what you like

ie: Im working with an Orange theme so I cange them to Norad orange

<color name="white">#ffffaa00</color>
         <color name="black">#ffffaa00</color>
