Hi all, I'm not from this section but was wondering if anyone has got the original framework file for the Galaxy S, I'm looking for the icons more than anything, I'm thinking of doing a theme for my DHD. Any help on this would be perfect.
Thanks!
Download one of stock 2.2.1 ROM's from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=948790
Extract it, go to /system/framework/ and you can find images in framework-res.apk and twframework-res.apk (you can open .apk's as zip files or decompile them, probably you already know that )
Never thought of that, cracking idea pal, thanked!

Thanks a lot.Now i need a lot of study to accomplise that!!!
you can easily change the png files in the framework-res.apk and the twframework-res.apk of any theme's zip.just take any theme as a base and change the pngs within opening the theme and then the apks by winrar or something like it.the pngs are stored in the drawable-hdpi and/or drawable-hdpi-v4 folders.
Whenever I try to change framework res, and replace the old edited frameworkres I get bootloops. After that I have to flash a stock rom with odin and then flash my cooked rom. Even if I push the original framework res.apk, that doesn't solve the problem. No issue with twframework res.apk. I can edit twframework res .APK and works fine.
Please help.
try using 7zip instead, its better at replacing files

reflashing a whole rom shouldn't be necessary
first of all, you should make a backup of your system, just in case
and you should always keep a working theme on your phone so that if you get stuck at boot, you just boot into CWM and flash the working one and everything should be fine again
and for your basic problem of editing themes, have a look at R64s guide:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=10383323&postcount=577
explains all the basic stuff and works great for me
if anyone with a rooted device could bring up all the UI images for touchwiz into one folder that would be great. Im designing a theme for my ipod touch based around it and would really appreciate the help. I cant do it myself because my phone is broke.

Look around for framework-res files. Sure you can find some online.
cant seem to find the files your talking about :/
someone please help
I made a package containing framework apks from JS5, you just have to extract them and look into the "drawable" folders.
Download it ☛ here.
i have them downloaded now what do I do?
and arent apks cracked apps..?
Now rename framework-res.apk to framework-res.zip, extract it and browse folders, you'll find icons and theme elements. But you still need screen captures

ok i made it to the drawable folder. now...all the images are xml. what program do i need to view them.
No, those are not images... Open drawable-hdpi folder and you'll find png images there.

Anyone have screenshots of their applications pages?? as many apps I can get would be a great help.

So I am trying to using apk-took but I can not located the twframework-res.apk I have found the framework-res.apk in /system/framework/ directory and place both files in the other folder. I am running the stock rooted rom. Do I need to find the rom and decompile it or does someone already have those files for the GN that I can use. Any help would be nice. Thanks :cyclops:
LOL because we dont have a touchwiz framework-res.apk why are you looking for it anyways?
I figured, I thought it was required for apk tool. Thanks for the reassurance though and taking your time to answer this question.
Nope just need to run
Code:
apktool if framework-res.apk
then you can start decompiling system apps and such. Make sure you have the framework-res.apk from your ROM and running that command in the same directory (folder) as the APK.

Hello! Where to find the twframework-res.apk in Android Oreo?
I am looking to theme my stock SMS bubbles to different colours other than those available.
I have searched everywhere and cannot find any collection of themes for this.
I am running edgarf28's XperianZE Rom.
Can anyone offer any help with this...?
I did particularly love the red and grey of the MIUI theme for the S3 but that theme isn't compatible with my current ROM version...
If possible, I'd like to just theme the SMS (stock).
Please don't point me towards GoSMS etc.... I don't want to install a third party SMS app.
Thanks for any help.

you need to know about to:
1- How to decompile and editing System apk files. i suggest you to read the manuals about the APK MULTITOOL. (google it)
2- How to edit 9.png files
-------------------
you need to edit : System/app/SecMms.apk
when you decompile it, goto SecMms.apk/res/drawable-xhdpi folder
you can find the 9.png files that started by message_bubble***.9.png names.
edit them, and recompile SecMms.apk
copy edited SecMms.apk file into system/app folder on your phone.

Best Regards.
Thanks for the advice.. looks a little tricky for a beginner.
Is it possible for me to somehow take the SecMms.apk file from another rom and drop it into my SecMms.apk/res/drawable-xhdpi folder?
Also, if i can do this.. do i need any particular file browser etc to access that folder? Can this be done post Rom install, or does this all need to be done within the flashable rom zip file prior to flashing?
Thank you.

there is no path secmms.apk/res/x/x
first u need to decompile ur secmms.apk
u can do it after installation also..no problem in that..replace secmms.apk directly, if u have another secmms.apk with those colored bubbles u want
...but I'm having issues installing the required java & android sdk files to my PC so I'm unsuccessful when trying to decompile the SystemUI.apk. Has anyone done that mod to a TW 4.1.2 ROM (Im on JMTJB v6 btw). If so think you could share the edited xml file(s) or the SystemUI apk? I also posted a link of my SystemUI.apk to see if anyone is willing to edit the needed xml files. Just name your price Thx ahead.
I can't be the only one wanting this mod, right? There has to be someone else who got it done on TW 4.1.2

Thank you...but as you see (and I stated on the o.p.) I have problems with my old-ass pc and I can't get the necessary files installed for me to decompile any apk. I have tried and tried but it just won't do it and I'm left unable to decompile crap. I know EXACTLY what I need to do but I CAN'T DECOMPILE the SystemUI.apk to do it. . That's the reason I'm asking if someone (that knows how to decompile, edit the status_bar.xml & tw_status_bar.xml, & compile again) could hook me up...and of course I'm willing to pay for their time.
