How To Change TAB Icons - Walkthrough

After trying to change some icons in manila TF3D and not finding a quick fix for what i exactly wanted, i have decided to be a bit of a geek and write a quick tutorial in the hope that others can play around and change the icons as they see fit,
Its a more in depth way of xdaman85's orignial post ( i will remove if this offends you)
This is my first real walkthrough so if you have any questions please ask and ill try my best to answer,
Basically you will need the following (as stated in the wiki http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=HTC_Blackstone_Custom)
Manilla Edititor 0.20 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=414861
Touch Commander/Resco Explorer
Png's Of the Icons you Want - all mine ive used are 128 x 128
BASICS:
Currently my understanding is
Main file names
xxxxx-try.qtc
xxxxx-hero.qtc (all hero file types have to be 128x128)
(where xxxxx is replaced by description, such as Camera/favourites/Email e.t.c)
TAB ICONS:
xxxxx-try.qtc files - These are basically the images that are used for the bottom slide bar the tab itself is not selected,
PREVIEW ICONS
xxxxx-hero.qtc files - These are basically the images that are used for the bottom slide bar the tab itself is selected and (also for the main preview of the image in the middle of the screen where a preview file doenst exist (must be 128x128)),
INSTRUCTONS:
1)Basically just browse to the icons you want to change and change the files with manilla editor
2)Stop TouchFlo 3D via today shortcut
3)Transfer the changed *.manilla files over to your windows directory
4)Restart TouchFlo 3D Via today shortcut
5) Enjoy
QUICK REFERENCE ICON LOCATIONS (in Manilla Editor)
The Following Icon Locations Are Found In the Tabs

KK:
- v3.4.2 (4.4+): Xposed Module Repository
(MODULE IS ALSO COMPATIBLE WITH JB 4.3 IF ORIGINALS KK Z3 PORTED APPS (SystemUI.apk | Home.apk) ARE PROPERLY RUNNING)
Due new quick settings buttons added by module, your 4.4.2 SystemUI.apk will need to have three new permissions to work properly. If you prefer not to do it, module will check for missing permissions and also will hide some buttons from Quick Settings selection screen!!
So follow instruction below to add them:
1. Decompile your 4.4.2 SystemUI.apk
2. Edit (with Notepad++) its AndroidManifest.xml
3. By putting red lines you will get something like:
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest android:sharedUserId="android.uid.systemui" android:versionCode="19" android:versionName="4.4.2-66" package="com.android.systemui" coreApp="true"
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:androidprv="http://schemas.android.com/apk/prv/res/android">
<uses-sdk android:minSdkVersion="18" android:targetSdkVersion="19" />

<permission android:name="com.sonymobile.permission.TASK_SWITCHER_PLUGIN_VIEW" android:protectionLevel="signatureOrSystem" />
.
.
.
</manifest>
4. Compile and replace it!!
JB (UNSUPPORTED VERSIONS... SORRY!!!):
- v2 (4.2.2+): Xposed Module Repository
- v2 (4.1.2): This post
Due changes made on the core of the app, it is highly recommended to clear its data after update the app. You will need to set all your preferences again!!!​
Install:
TRY AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!
Requeriments:
- Xperia™ stock KK 4.4.2 firmware (JB 4.3 still supported)
- Xperia™ Z3 Compact Home stock launcher installed (YOU CAN GET PROPER PORTED APK HERE)

This looks really nice! Won't be able to test it though, since I'm not on stock right now, but options are always great to have. Thank you.

Hey @serajr. Amazing work, as always. It looks amazing. However, I am having some problems. Screenshots of the problems inside the spoiler tags.
They are not big, however they could be adressed (I guess).
First things first, on my Xperia S, running Niaboc79's eXistenZ Ultra 1.3.5 ROM, based on .96, 4.1.2 fw:
The first thing is that icons are not propely shown, be either on app drawer OR home screen. For some reason, though, there is one app that is showing propely (Nova Lancher. I always download it in case there is a problem with Xperia Home).
The second thing is that the power menu isn't propely themed. Text color and icons change accordingly, however the backgroud stays black, when using White theme.
EDIT: Just realized it says 4.2.2+, but if you can add compatiblity for 4.1.2 for Xperia S, I'd love it
The second device to have problems are with the Xperia Tablet Z, currently running stock .577 4.3 fw.
The only problem it has is the non themed Silent/Non-Silent icons. They remain white.I don't know how it looks on other devices running 4.3. If it changes anything, the Tablet Z does NOT have a vibration motor, so there is only silent and non silent modes. No vibrate.
If you need any files or someone to test anything, let me know
By the way, what is your Hangouts email, so I can add you? lol
Oh, and @niaboc79 , also awesome work :good:
The power menu seems to look fine here. The icons are correct color, etc. But may I suggest a feature to hide power off/reboot while in lockscreen?

I can easily create preferences for all power menu actions that will control their visibility while screen locked. What about?

Let´s go bro...
First... I really don´t know what to do to help you!! I´ve never seen that issue before!
Second... If you didn´t faced any fc, it is compatible over 4.1.2. The Light theme choice forces power menu screen to be decorated with "Theme.DeviceDefault.Light", so probably 4.1.2 "Theme.DeviceDefault.Light" style is that way. You can take a look at 4.2.2 same style resource for diffs and mod your own framework.
Third... I think I need to check for tablet mode and hook/replace that action too.
Thank you for feedback... consider, at least third one, for v2 (soon)!

Ok. It wasn't a complain, just a feedback.
One last thing that doesn't affect the usage at all, it is just something that can be improved, or changed to fit the Tablet Z.
As you can see, the power menu says: "Your phone will...". Maybe that could be changed to "Your device will..." or be dependent on the build.prop, and when it detects it is a XTZ (remember that there are some variations. Just let me know if you need anything.)
As I said, this is very minor. Do not put it into your priorities list, though...

Minor issue with the icons on white background, can't seem to get it to black like the words. On existenz v5 unlocked bootloader with doom kernel v20.
Tried switching different themes and reboot but no luck.
Many thanks.

I´m gonna send you a test apk with power menu non-colored silent mode fixed.
Also, I´m gonna take a look at "Your phone will..." message, once the string come from framework, it is not within module. Tabled should have another string, so I need check for tablet mode (just before screen creation) and get proper framework string. Please, send me your decompiled tablet framework string.xml when possible (or its name within file)! Thanks again...

Ok. About the framework, there is currently no deodexed fw from 4.3 for XTZ. I'm going to try it myself. Again, what's your Hangouts email, so we can talk, if needed, if that's not a problem.

@serajr
will you be able to use xposed to inject codes to make the stock launcher as a multi dpi supported launcher?
because im currently using 360DPI,
what about supporting custom grids too?
sorry if im mentioning too much and thanks!
Ok, I'm going to bother you (@Niaboc79 and @serajr ) again, haha:
I had an idea, that could turn to be very good if done correctly.
Do you know with the 4.3 update, that the Navigation Bar is kinda contextual with Sony apps. Basically all Sony apps (except media ones) are themed white, and when they are opened, the naviagation bar and status bar turn grey-ish. That's incredible, IMO, as it complements the whole UI, making them more immersive (maybe it is a preparation for Immersive Mode from 4.4?).
Example: http://mobilenews.omio.com/wp-content/uploads/Omio-Sony-Xperia-Z1-hands-on-pictures-16_thumb.jpg
Well, the idea is to make that something the user can force. Imagine Hangouts or Gmail, or any other light app using that status bar? I don't know a lot, but considering you've made a lot already with this Module, it shouldn't be hard. The code for that change is already within Sony Framework (at least on 4.3), so it shouldn't be relatively hard to do it.
Just need what in the framework calls that change, and with the module, force other user selectable apps to have the same code applied to it. That is the first part. Then, it could be chosen to apply only on navigation bar or status bar only, or both. And then, a code port to older versions (4.2.2 and maybe 4.1.2).
Guys, again, this is only an idea that I got and that, IMO, could be awesome. But I am not demanding anything, neither in hurry for anything
