Modify and compile Android Status Bar project (SystemUI.apk)

Question

I have an ".apk" file, In this, I want to change the behaviour of the status bar. I'm able to modify its files in "res" folder but I want to write new code, so I've downloaded what I understand is the project link

My question is: How can I compile it? it seems to be a part of a much more generic project, I've read people in internet saying it's possible but I'm not able to import lots of referenced classes (com.android.internal.R for example).

I'm sorry if it's a newbie question or if it's not clear enough, but if someone who has done this before could help I'll be grateful

Looks like you have to get the whole project and not only the SystemUI subdirectory.

Try to refresh the project. The R file has to be generated and make sure that you import the right API's to compile your project

@Oritm: that R's package is not the application's R but an external library R file. – m0skit0 Nov 08 '12 at 11:01
