Modifying Settings app causes Bootloop/App disappears

###Information

First of all, I have all the necessary components;

I'm trying to modify my Settings app, with framework-res.apk added as the framework required. I don't have any framework installed either. I don't have any problem decompiling and building, I also sign the Settings.apk with "Uber Apk Signer", I have tried my own signature as well, but Uber seemed way more efficient. Problem is, when install Settings.apk, it either causes Bootloops or the Settings app disappeares from launcher.

Android 9/Samsung Port Rom

Steps to Reproduce

1. apktool if framework-res.apk
2. apktool d settings.apk
3. apktool b settings
4. java -jar Uber.jar --apks Settings.apk
5. Installation causes Bootloop/App disappeares.

Frameworks

framework-res.zip

APK

( I CANNOT ADD IT BECAUSE GITHUB DOES NOT ALLOW ME [is not included in the list.])

###Questions to ask before submission

1. Have you tried apktool d, apktool b without changing anything? Yes.
2. If you are trying to install a modified apk, did you resign it? Yes.
3. Are you using the latest apktool version? Yes.

Do you happen to have an adb logcat of the exact failure during installation? It has some extra info

Because its a System app (and furthermore being Settings app) I can't install it through Package Installer. I used Lucky Patcher to install the Apk as System app with almost every possible different ways, manually replaced it on "system/priv-app", it either disappeared or caused Bootloop. So I'm not sure exactly where to take the Logcat to be honest.

Have exactly the same problem with Settings app API29, but I noticed that apktool (when decompile APK) builds a different /res tree (i.e. "res/anim" and "res/anim-v21" in Original and only "res/anim" once decompiled)

Unfortunately never triaging this in a timely manner and the original poster deleting their account and no logcat with no Samsung device owned. I don't see this going anywhere. Closing.
