Root [VIDEO TUTORIAL] Change your lock screen text

Im trying to change the text but I keep getting the same error over and over again saying it cannot find the file specified. Any ideas why?

can you provide a lil more details:

-In what part during the whole process are you having the error?
-whats the exact error message?
-are you willing to and can you teamviewer so i can try to help?
 
I get the error message when choosing option 11 to compile the apk. The message reads 'the system cannot locate the file specified'.
And yes I can get you in team viewer
 
i keep getting "an error occured please check the log (option 22). when i go to view the log it opens cmd and the system cant find the specified file. in linux its erroring out too

i gotta be doing something wrong tho because in windows it wont build and in linux it builds but bootloops my phone after i restart to apply the changes...
 
Oh I didnt even notice the Linux in the error. But yea if it wont build on windows youre doing something wrong.

Have you taken the drawable-hdpi folder out of ldrifta's LD-LG ZVD framework and put it in your framework apk before decompiling? Then make your changes and then swap the folder back?
 
no i didnt know anything about that. ill try that in a bit when i have more time. i think i understand what your saying. ill let you know how it goes. it did work when i was on broken out but now that im on #2 (2.3) its not working. does that matter?
 
For some reason even tho they are pretty much the same images if you mod the images it errors. Have no clue why. If you take the drawable-hdpi out of the framework of LD-LG ZVD and put it in the apk you are modding before decompiling everything works fine as it should. Then just make your changes and then take the original drawable-hdpi folder that was originally in the apk and put it back in the apk after its been compiled. And you should be good to go ;)
