Modifying musicplayer.apk & other doubts regarding unpacking & packing apk!!

I like the option to change music from anywhere via notification but i hate the cheap default album art in it!! So I like to extract the apk remove those pictures!! Does removing those pictures alone will cause any problems?? If the answer is yes I ll replace those images with my own images!!
So now regarding extracting :
Does extracting by zip & repacking again with zip & changing name as .apk is enough or do I want to extract using apk extractor/manager found in this forum (forgot its name) & repack & sign it with the same??
Regarding .odex file :
I have a rough idea about odex & deodexed files!! Stock application is usually odexed!!
Now my doubt is what I have to do with the .Odex file near the music??
Help me out soon
Sorry for my bad English & unframed question!! Cz am posting via mobile!!

Don't ever remove stuff, depending on how they are loaded / how well coded the app is, it will most likely cause null pointers and so force close.
If you mod an apk, replace stuff but don't remove or rename.
P.S. you could deodex the app, to make your life simpler, but deodexing is no simple task for system apps if you are not familiar with the process.
Maybe the solution, if you want to mod, is to get a deodexed rom and mod away.

Am new to Android just a week old, but am not a total noob i had molded roms in Symbian!!
So please send me links or tutorials about
How to deodex & other important things about droid!!
Also am not gonna remove anything am just gonna replace default images for music player for album art with custom pics!! I already replaced camera. Apk for battery mod found in the forum!! I can request any1 to mod for me but I really like modding it on my own, i like droid more than Symbian now!! & even am not using iPad properly after buying s2!!
Coming to point, is musicplayer.apk is system app like touchwiz. Apk & framework-research. Apk??
Update:

Frameworks are not applications. But yeah, Musicplayer.apk is an application apk.
As for the Odex file... http://lmgtfy.com/?q=Odex+file

i need to replace default album art with this png's !! for 400x400 i need that thumb_00.png !! please help me !!
also please teach me how to modify/edit/customise/repack/sign apk's !!!
1) Reflash your current rom (look for stock roms topic in Original Android Development forum)
2) ALWAYS do a backup of your files before messing with them, especially when you don't know how to recover them -.-'
3) Asked like this, nobody will do that for you. Moreover, that's iTunes, and we, as loyal Android users, won't take any of these into our droids.
4) To modify/edit/repack/sign APK, there's Google for that. It has tons of resources if you only take a second to type in your search, and one other to look at the links.

Jeeeeeeeeeezzzz....
If you don't know what a .sh is, then you shouldn't be doing what you're trying to do.
P.S. you could deodex the app, to make your life simpler, but deodexing is no simple task for system apps if you are not familiar with the process.

And yes, framework-res and twframeword-res.apk should be enough.

Hi leboreiro
Dude, yes, you have a back up!!! :laugh:
It's inside your ROM zip file. Go there and extract it
But be careful, the bootanimation file you are demanding is the binary not the animation 'per se'.
The boot animations that actually are played can be located inside \system\media\
- bootsamsung.qmg
- bootsamsungloop.qmg
- shutdown.qmg
You already have all of them
Nice regards.

HI Mr.K...Just pass by accident and see your post in the past.
Now I remember you have many amazing tools introduced me and think that now you may help me one more time.
I think to look inside the bootanimation file in system/bin and edit it if i can. Your idea? Please tell me the tool and process or about the knowledge I must have.
Thank in advance though you can help or not my old friend.

The zip they have in their repo is an eclipse project that you would have to compile to make an apk. If you want to view android manifest.xml, you could also just decompile the app you want to know about.
Please post any questions in Q&A, and you may get more help with this particular question in Android General Q&A.
