Disclaimer - Dont try this if u r not knowing what u r doing. Its ur own responsibility.
I have done successfully in my GALAXY ACE DUOS GT S6802
BACKUP THOSE SYSTEM FILES BEFORE U DO ANY MODDING
For this u will need :
1.Apk tool
2.root file explorer to push it from phone itself
>>First decompile required apk. [apk-tool recommended]
>>Make .xml changes [edit the clock, date, icons, etc]
>>save [ edit and save in notepad++]
>>recompile [apktool] [no-signing]
>>see log if any error in apktool folder
>> procced if not - [if there is something improper code u have placed - u have to see every code properly with the orignal .xml]
>>now u have two apks 1. orignal 2. modded
>> first push the modded one
>>if works !! great [Will surely not work for systemui.apk]
>> if not then open both apk using the 7zip [This will surely work for systemui.apk ] [Provided u didnt have changed the format of the xml]
>>copy the modded "compiled" .xml from modded apk to orignal apk to its corresponding location
>push the file [Orignal .apk file with the modded .xml ]
>now the file should work unless u have done any coding mismatch.
> Restart
>>Enjoy
Press thanks if u got success in modifying the files.
Any query u can ask freely
I searched at many place but didnt got an easy guide , so i tried 100's time to recompile and decompile the files finally , my own method worked and shared with u all
