[MOD] Remove iPhone-style tiles from TouchWiz App Drawer

I hated the 'iPhone' look of the app drawer, which draws squares around the icons to make them look like iphone tiles. So I followed the instructions here and now it looks way better:
[I can't post external links] Search google for 'App hintergrund handy-faq.de' - it should be the first result.
It's a German site, so I used Google Translate to make sense of it.
EDIT: Yay, I'm now allowed to post links and upload and whatnot so here is the tutorial:

You will need a rooted phone, and basically you replace the tile backgrounds with transparent ones in the TouchWiz30Launcher.apk through ADB. Disclaimer: Please note you do this at your own risk and I am not responsible for any damage you may cause to your phone!
1) Download the Transparent_Tiles.zip attachment and unzip to a folder on your computer.
2)In Windows, make sure you have ADB SDK installed and phone connected via USB with 'USB Debugging' enabled. Go to Start>Run type 'cmd' and press enter, then in the black cmd window type:
cd c:\
adb pull /system/app/TouchWiz30Launcher.apk
This will copy TouchWiz30Launcher.apk from your phone to your c:\ drive on your computer.
3) Before we meddle with the newly pulled file, make a copy of it and save somewhere else. Call it something like TouchWiz30Launcher.apk_original. This is your stock file, keep it in case you need to go back to the holy iPhone look.
4) Using a program like WinRar or 7zip, OPEN the TouchWiz30Launcher.apk on your C:\ drive by double-clicking (do not extract anything). WinRAR should now give an explorer-type view of the files inside the .apk. Navigate to the following folder in the .apk using WinRAR:
/res/drawable-hdpi/
You will see a list of image files that TouchWiz uses to create the iPhone tiles. We are basically going to overwrite the tiles with transparent ones directly in WinRAR.
5) Now highlight and select all the image files in the Transparent_Tiles.zip folder you extracted earlier and drag them into the WinRAR window. Confirm any overwrite prompts and then close WinRAR. We have now modified the apk (replaced the original tile background images) without extracting the apk or re-saving it. (It is important not to extract or re-pack the apk otherwise your phone will not accept the modified apk and you will need to re-sign it).
6) Now we are going to copy this apk to our phone's internal sdcard, then replace the TouchWiz30Launcher.apk currently on our phone system with the TouchWiz30Launcher.apk we just modified on our computer:
In your cmd line window, type (pressing Enter after each line):
adb push TouchWiz30Launcher.apk /sdcard/TouchWiz30Launcher.apk
adb shell
su
cat /sdcard/TouchWiz30Launcher.apk > /system/app/TouchWiz30Launcher.apk
reboot
8) Your phone will reboot. Free from it's copycat mentality with a new-found identity
9) The TouchWiz30Launcher.apk you copied to your internal SD card can now be deleted if you wish, since you've already copied this to the phones system now.
EDIT: I've upgraded to JP6 now (Froyo) and tried this method, and it worked too!

Very interested in this, but have no idea how to do this, please elaborate

You could also just change to launcherpro or ADW, both of which will emulate the look and feel of touchwiz but not add the tiles. Probably easiest way.

Yeah, that is true. The above is useful for folks who prefer not to run 3rd party launchers and keep the stock TouchWiz for whatever reason, but can't tolerate Samsung's inferiority-complex in aping the iPhone.
I did try launcherpro and AWD but they both gave me headaches:
- interfered with USB connections to my PC,
- cause problems with wi-fi reconnecting / detecting router
- Interfered with Live Wallpapers, (especially when rotating screen)
- drain my battery (touchwiz still running underneath),
- cause some widgets that work wonderfully in TouchWiz to go beserk (BBC News, DigiClock)
- and also clashed with NoLED notifications - one of my all time greatest apps.
In the end, I decided it wasn't worth it just for eye-candy and uninstalled both. It was a shame, because launcherpro was very snappy otherwise and had great add-on widgets...
But in the end I settled for TouchWiz, modified to my liking:

Sorry mate, could you rephrase that, don't get what you mean...?

He simply replaced the colored tiles with transparent tiles.
Download the zip and put the containing .png files into drawable/hdpi of the TouchWiz30Launcher.apk.
I think if you have a deodexed rom you will have to resign it then..

Yes, but then I miss out on samsung widgets, which, whilst alot of people here do not like, I do use, so I would prefer to keep it stock.

where did you get your icons for the contacts, dialer...?

I googled for launcher pro style icons and found some on http://launcherpro.droidicon.com/icons . Then used the same principles as above to replace the original icons inside the phone, browser apk with the custom ones

I'm not sure if that is possible because there doesn't seem to be a background image file used in the touchwiz launcher to create the black background. I think the colour is set in the XML file code, which is a realm beyond my knowledge...! Unless someone else knows what to modify?

Cheers, I finally got around to doing this today.
Works beautifully
The homescreen_menu_marketbg_0 tile was still there, so I had to change that to black as well, but other than that, worked perfectly

[Q] CM7 Status Bar Transparency

Status bar, not notification pull down. I've already gotten the notification working, as it was just a standard png edit.
Anyway, is there anyone that can give an explanation on how I can get my status bar to be transparent? I've already gotten the proper image from system/app/SystemUI.apk. I edited it and saved it properly for transparency. Where I'm getting stuck is the whole draw 9 thing, since the image is a ".9.png" file. I've already opened the png in the draw 9 patch tool in the SDK, but I'm just totally stuck at this point.
I sort of understand the deal with drawing black lines on the right and the bottom for the content areas, then the two dots on the top and left for the stretchable areas. But after I save the file, I'm still seeing the drawn black lines in the image. Am I not doing something right? After I get that sorted, how do I go about resigning the apk to push it to my device?

You'll need to run Eclipse, this tutorial helped me with draw nines. Once you put them thru Eclipse, the lines will disappear. Then you can extract them from the unsigned apk like the video states, use 7zip to put the images back into your framework-res.apk or whatever without having to resign anything.

I'm a rom-whore, and I'm damn proud of it

Edit: Nevermind, I'm editing the right file. I just did a test and made it completely red and it worked. But, for some reason transparency is not working at all, it just keeps appearing solid black.

I believe it's in services.jar if I'm not mistaken. Or so that's what I had heard. I haven't messed with it myself.

Can you make it semi-transparent?

Sent you a PM.

The actual image is in SystemUI.apk. But it won't render transparent without an xml our services.jar hack. It's a pain in the ass. Also if you actually make it transparent you are going to have problems with text and image stacking when you pull down down notifications. I just replace the image in SystemUI.apk with a 480x38 top part of my wallpaper.

Unfortunately it only works on the lockscreen, screen transitions, and with live wallpapers. I don't use live wallpapers so it just remains a black bar for me.

In ADW Launcher settings to go System Preferences, and uncheck Wallpaper Hack, and the transparency will be enabled with regular wallpaper.
With Launcher Pro, it only works with LWP.

Indeed that does work. Now, if I could only get that transparency to work with the original CM7 theme. I'm not a fan of all the extra theming stuff that particular patch adds. Thank you though.

I changed my Icons to better match the ICS blue theme. Here they are if you want them.
Here is a zip containing most of my icons, all that are pictured in this thread and some more. This zip contains all 3 sizes of each icon to replace every icon in the apk. They are numbered by size 48,72,96. However they are also all the same file name and contained in individual zips. So be careful not to overwrite when unpacking.

To change the SMS icon.
Rename mms.apk to mms.zip
Double click to open (using winrar here) DO NOT UNZIP!
Res>mipmap-xhdpi
drag and drop ic_launcher_smsmms.png over top the old one. Let it replace it
rename mms.zip back to apk.
Then install however you normally would
The contacts and phone icon are located in the contacts.apk it's done the same way as the mms.apk, in the same folder name, just replace ic_launcher_phone.png, and ic_launcher_contacts.png
I have copies of my apk's. You probobly should too. Lemme know if i need to change something.

Which one?
I have some of them pre packaged in apk's already.
As far as flashable zips go, I am on the fence. I believe you should learn to do a few core things, in case something gets messed up and you don't have a zip to flash and fix. I probably will build a zip that contains all the updated Gapps with different themed icons when I am finished with the notification icons.

[MOD] Transparent notification bar/pulldown background

*I made this before any of these new roms came out and as such it was meant for and has been tested on only the stock Gingerbread rom that comes with the phone. I doubt it will be compatible with the new roms.*
So, thanks to the AMAZING people who brought us Clockwork Mod for the Nitro (I owe ALL of you a beer!), I could now make a backup of my ROM and take the risk of messing with what I needed to to make the notification bar transparent!
Basically, I needed to deodex SystemUI.apk in order to make the necessary changes to the smali file. All of this is gibberish to me, but I just googled what I needed to =).
To deodex, I followed this guide:
How to deodex a ROM
(I only deodexed SystemUI.apk)
And to make the necessary modifications for transparency, I followed portions of this guide:
[MOD] [Guide How To] SystemUI.apk for Transparent notifications background (Thanks AdamTt!)
(I didn't end up using step 2 of that because it didn't look very good on the Nitro)
So now the status bar and pull down background look like this!
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
So I've bundled the necessary files so it's easier to make yours transparent too! Keep in mind, I am NOT a dev and was not sure how android would handle a single deodexed apk in an otherwise odexed rom (hence waiting for Clockwork Mod), so this may not be the slickest way (programming wise), but so far it's been working great for me. Haven't noticed any performance issues of any kind. Regardless, try at your own risk! =)
Preparation!
1.) Backup your phone with Clockwork Mod! (Yay!)
2.) Using root explorer, back up a copy of your SystemUI.apk and SystemUI.odex (both in /system/app)
Make it transparent! (Again, everything done with Root Explorer!)
1.) Download and extract attached .zip to computer
2.) Copy your SystemUI.apk to your desktop and right click, 7zip, open archive
3.) Drag and drop into open archive (and let overwrite if it wants to):
-"classes.dex" into root folder of open archive of SystemUI.apk
-"status_bar_tracking.xml" into SystemUI.apk\res\layout
-"shade_bg.png" into SystemUI.apk\res\drawable-hdpi (hdpi, NOT xhdpi)
-"statusbar_background.9.png" into SystemUI.apk\res\drawable-xhdpi (xhdpi!)
4.) Copy this new SystemUI.apk onto your SD card
5.) Move to phone's \system\ folder
6.) CHANGE PERMISSIONS with root explorer (Owner: read write, group: read, others: read)
7.) Move into phone's \system\app folder and let overwrite other SystemUI.apk
8.) DELETE SystemUI.odex from \system\app folder on your phone!
9.) Restart your phone!
*The typical limitations of the transparent notification bar on gingerbread are present here. If you use a launcher other than stock or ADW, the bar will only be transparent if you use a live wallpaper. If you use ADW, you have to uncheck the "hack" setting, and then it'll be transparent regardless of wallpaper.*
**You don't have to use the PNG's I provided. You can put whatever you want there and have as little or as much transparency as you want!**

itis, thank you for the nice mod will look great with great wallpapers. Speaking of wallpapers, that one you got looks hella awesome. Mind sharing it? post it over at the wallpaper thread please so those who are interested in it can obtain it too Thanks again.

What weather widget is that?

That looks good, however in my past experience on Atrix 4G such transparency could be problem when your have text on screen and text in the notification bar, very hard to read.

Well, it's transparent, so if there's a light background behind it, white text might be harder to read, but I tried to make the transparency somewhat dim so white text is still pretty clear, even on top of a white background like here:

thank you！
i will try！thank you！

Has anyone had their camera fail after doing this mod? I'm not 100% sure that this was the cause but that's the last thing I did before I noticed that the camera didn't work. It did work before I did this.

Hmm, that's kinda random. I don't have any camera issues. Can you restore and see if it fixes the cam?

I did a factory reset and put the original files back. No camera I flashed a new rom and the camera worked. I ended up bricking it beyond repair and got a replacement.
Sent from my LG-P930 using XDA App

That's weird restoring the files didn't fix it. I wonder if there was something else causing the cam issues then. That sucks you had to get it replaced! Do you know what happened to brick it?

I bricked it by not following the directions for flashing the kernelpanic rom. I did a factory restore in cwm and poof I had a nice HD brick. Good thing att labeled it as doa and gave me a new one.

Hello itiskonrad. I really do not understand how to do this. I lack experience. Can you please make my SystemUI the same as yours? I am just asking. I hope you can help me.

Hey there!
Since this is my first post on this board, I hope it's not too misplaced. :>
I decided to post in this thread as it seems to be the most up-to-date.
I tried several other guides on xda and other boards, but for my device it won't work. I even tried to find the necessary files on my own, but with no luck.
I'm using MIUI 2.7.13 (Android 4.0.4), ArcKnight Kernel 2.6.32.9 and Apex Launcher on SE Arc S/LT18i. I've installed the Suave Theme v4 1.5, of course with Apex merely the notification icons (ribbons) are visible from that theme.
Now, cutting a long story short, when using MIUI Launcher the notification bar is completely transparent, only the ribbons are visible (that's my goal), when switching to Apex the bar becomes black again - except on the unlock pattern screen.
I've read that the notification settings do not depend on the launcher, but changing background images in SystemUI.apk has no effect.
I hope I made myself clear and that somebody has any direction to point or some solution.
Thanks for reading my crappy english. :>
Regards

[ICONS/MODS] [3-1-12] Icons and Nav Mods **ANOTHER HUGE UPDATE**

Hey all. Here are all of the icon sets I have made thus far. They all come in FULL sets. They are *NOT* flashable zips, just regular ones. These are probably best used with Nova Launcher or your alternative launcher of choice.. I will add more as often as I make them.
Enjoy and hit that thanks button if you like my work

**I'm always open for requests**
Please private message me with your request and I guarantee a reply within 24 hours.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-Thanks to NatemZ (RW) for creating the sexy Rootzwiki wallpaper I package with most of these sets. Make sure to thank him!
-Thanks to Fawkes (RW) for finding a working method to replacing your system apps with mine so they will even show up in you app drawer and so on. Make sure to thank him!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*These sets are NOT flashable zips! Extract them with something like Root Explorer*
Instructions:
-Method One (Easiest, but does NOT replace system icons or show up in app drawer): Download the zips from the links to your sd card. Use an app like Root Explorer or AndroZip to extract the contents of the zip. In Nova launcher (or whichever one you use), long press the chosen icon and hit "edit" when the little menu pops up. Browse via gallery or root explorer to said extracted icon. Apply. Enjoy.
-Method Two (Advanced, Replaces system app icons):
*I am not responsible for anything you do to your phone. You do this at your own discretion*
1. Perform the all important Nandroid backup. Just in case...
2. Download the icon set of your choice to your SD card.
3. Use Root Explorer to copy the .apk file of the app you want to edit to your sdcard.
4. Unzip the app.
5. Copy the icon of your choice to the res/drawable folder of said extracted app.
6. Rename the old "ic_application.png" (original icon file) file to ".old" (or whatever)
7. Rename the new icon to the same thing as the old one (ic_application.png)
8. Rezip the entire app up, and then rename it from .zip, to .apk
9. Place the app back into the system/app or data/app folder that you pulled the app from originally.
10. Reboot
11. Place the icon back on the homescreen if you want it there.
12. ...
13. Profit!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Textual (sexual text): Contains 94 white text based icons made with the beautiful ICS Roboto font.

Thanks!

yeah, tell me about it :/

Loving the black and white set, one request, could you possibly add some more icons to it? That would be awesome. Again thanks for your hard work.

I am actually in the process of that right now! I'll be adding to almost all of the sets here shortly, as well as I'll be adding a bunch of new sets and bringing my softkey mods here as well.
Also, I will be updating the OP later tonight with a BUNCH of new sets, updated links as I switched my hosting to goo-inside, Metamorph/Zipthemer softkey mods, and a far cleaner format!
I would also like to apologize to the XDA Galaxy Nexus community as I haven't done my part to maintain this thread and keep you guys updated. I promise from this point forward that will no longer be the case.
Stay tuned guys! I'm about to open the floodgates on a collective 92 hours worth of themeing and mods.
If anyone gets curious and doesn't feel like waiting, download the goo-inside.me app from the market and find me under the devs section. All of my icons and navmods are there

Love the big update!! Keep it up man..thanks

Thank you very much for the text icons they look great and please keep up the great work.

Added 4 new icon sets and 3 navbar mods to the OP.

Could you do a Quickboot and maybe a Yahoo Finance icon? If I had to pick one, I'd pick Quickboot.
Thanks, loving the icons.
