Option proposedheregood, but I think newbies from a large text have a fear of translation / editing, logically a lot = difficult. Predalayu new version of this action.

One request, do not write me a personal with questions! Read the cap a couple of times, then ask a question in the subject.

We will need:JavaandApk manager
Java download from the developer’s site, i.e.here or more recent. Apk manager, you can, and even need, download from here.
ApkManagerRUS.rar(3.77 MB)
(Mirror)
A new version:APKmanager 5.7
APKTool v1.5.2New way to change applications (translation) (Post # 22030406)
Apktool for mobile devices.


Do you use Linux-based OS? Youhere!

The main feature of this version is that it is translated into Russian and now it has become even easier to use. But I still show you how to Russify or change the desired application.

Instruction

0)Make sure everything is installed. All events will take place in the folder with the unzipped Apk Manager!
1)We copy the necessary application in a folder/ place-apk-here-for-modding
2)RunScript.batand we see the following picture:

Enter the number of the desired application and press Enter
3)There will be a bunch of options for action, do not get scared, choose the item9(Decompilation)

We wait..
4)Go to the folder/ projectsand find the folder with the desired application.
Go to the folderprojects \ your application.apk \ res \ valuesand look for a file therestrings.xml
Create a folderprojects \ your application.apk \ res \ values-ruand copy there ourstrings.xml
I recommend Notepad ++ for editing, and in no case any “editors” like aiLocalizer, they add a lot of garbage to the source file and because of this it and therefore the program “gets fat”
Note: sometimes the translation may not only be in the filestrings.xmlbut also inarrays.xml, eg. Well, in particularly neglected cases (laucnher pro), a part of localization may be located in the smali code, we will not talk about it now.
5)After editing in the same Apk Manager, we select item 11. And here we see the following:

We are not scared, since we edited a non-system (not a system?) Application, then we write the letternand pushenter
6)Now it remains to sign the application, everything is simple. Choose 12 points.
7)If you are registered inPATHway toAdb (in more detail) then you can install the application right away by selecting item 13, or immediately from compiling to installation point 14.

Forgot to say, the finished application is located at/ place-apk-here-for-modding / signedyour_application.apk

I hope this will encourage newcomers to such a noble cause as localization!

Help, pzhlst, I wanted to Russify the system application Phone.apk created the values-ru folder translated all the lines, but the following errors are not going back to the application,
first when unpacking the file

log next

when I try to collect the following errors

you don't collect it, but decompile it!
system applications should be decompiled with dependencies.
Click on the dial 10 and insert the file on which this application depends.
in this case, this is most likely framework-res.apk.
It can be found in the firmware archive in the \ system \ framework folder
you just take the file and drag it straight (drag it) into the input window after entering the "10" key ... and press enter.
The application is decompiled normally.

By the way, it would not hurt to drive a thread to the cap :)

it turned out, and now how to assemble it normally? if you press 11 again gives an error, here is the log

Perhaps the jamb in value-ru / strings.xml in 1282 line ... can delete what ...
it should be set up without problems ... try to delete value-ru temporarily and compile ... if you compile, look for where you deleted something extra in strings.xml

well, thanks, I'll try a little later)))
even then tell me the camera file. app and the setting one. the app also needs to be decompiled as the phone. app? Ie after 10 points, if so which file to insert?

I did not pick them yet, but most likely this file. First try without it, and then with it.

I tried, without this folder everything was going, now I will look for errors in the string file))

When it was necessary for me to "shove" a Russian from CyanogenMod to AOSP OTA for HTC Dream, everything worked out without problems, it was going to .. I thought there were dependencies only on firmware with a sensor: rolleyes:

Dear author of this topic, please write how can you Russify system files such as phone.apk and settings.apk?

"5) After editing in the same Apk Manager, we select item 11. And here we see the following:"
"6) Now it remains to sign the application, everything is simple. Choose item 12."

Combine points 5 and 6 and enter 14 points in the program (this is faster, and error like "check log 21" pops up but the file translates and signs)

we scratch your left ear with your right foot? For combining 5 and 6 points there are 7, and the error is due to the fact that the program can not find the path to ADB

John-m @ 01/13/2011, 18:09

Dear author of this topic, please write how can you Russify system files such as phone.apk and settings.apk?

just like regular applications, only after the actions performed:
Open the new apk file with the archiver and get it from there.resources.arscand throw this file into the old apk filewithout compression!

Departure from instructions is getting bricks!

As far as I know, tachwiz is a launcher, while sense is a major integration into the system, you won’t get off with one launcher =)

Sorry for maybe the simplest question, and in what encoding should the string be processed in Notepad? UTF-8?

[Roman * BLG]

Hello, I decided to try to translate the DroidWall_1.4.6 program, I translated everything, I got to 6 paragraph, and when in the program I choose paragraph 12, he writes me too, as injohn-mI tried to do as advisedSaint_Anger, transferred the framework-res.apk file there, but smd still refuses to go further .... and also writes "Sorry, this is not a dependent application, try another" ... I don’t even know what to do? ... I tried as I did in paragraph 7, I did the same nonsense (... please tell me what to do?

Somehow I managed to create the file (instead of compiling, did decompile, and then compile (11, and 14 tried)), was already happy, threw the file into the phone, click install, and it shows "installation error" ... that am I doing this either? (

Problem solved, thanksRang3r
