Error When Recompiling system APK

[miuifan1]

Hi. I'm trying to edit sustem.apk (miui v4) using APK Manager v4.9. "elso apktool give me an error in recompiling"

I've managed to decompile it with no errors in the log.txt. But after I make the small change in just one XML file it givs me error ..
Can anyone tell me what the problem is?

even if I decompile and then recompile without changing anything, I still get the same error

This error usually means.
You need the new aapt.exe from the SDK platform-tools folder.

Can you post the E / W sections to our logcat.miuiandroid.com site please?

Make sure you decompile the file again, after you've downloaded the newest aapt, then you can recompile again. (Also given that you have correct PATH in environment variables)
Otherwise, it's a known issue with apktool 1.4.3, which breaks something in the source when decompiling. But for most people, the newest aapt works.
