Can't edit systemui.apk in Alcatel flash6042d

Hi I was trying to decompile and edit xmls in systemui.apk but after decompiling the folder does not have "res" folder contains the xmls so I searched around and found out that the xmls were in systemui-res.apk present in custpack/jrd_custres/apk so I tried to decompile it after trials and errors I decompiled KT and edited the xmls but then while recompiling I get error messages like android manifest not present though they weren't from the start.
So please can anybody help me with this I wanted to remove the transparent codes in status bar_expanded .
Plzzz help
