Hi guys and sorry if I'm allowed to make a small guide (I'm learning) to create and replace icons touchwizgtg base to include those that beat us more about working with photoshop ...
I hope this little guide is helpful to all of you who want a little modding the graphics of your terminal
Well I leave you to better understand this video, good vision
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i643CZzojEY&feature=player_embedded
Sorry for the video is in italian linguage
P.s. sorry for some typos that I made for the rush (type icons should be 87x87 and 85 as set in the video)
Requirements
TouchWiz installable package with recovery from LINK
STEP 1
Open photoshop and create a new file size you want (eg 300x300) with transparent background
STEP 2
Once created the icons we want, save it in png format, ritagliamola so as to leave no spaces around and in ridimensioniamola 87x87 pixels and save
STEP 3
With 7Zip, navigate inside the Touchwiz.apk, and extract the folder to the Desktop hdpi-drawable (just to get the name of the file we need) copy the name of the png you want to replace (in this case "homescreen_menu_marketbg_0") and rinonimate your icon with that name
STEP 4
Also in the surf with 7Zip Touchwiz.apk, until you enter the following location touchwiz.apk \ res \ drawable-hdpi.
Once this is done you just need to drag your new icon into that folder and answer yes to the question that the program will do.
STEP 5
Now you just need to replace the "old" TouchWiz with this modified by you, or rootexplorer or flash recovery

hey New to the xda fourms but looking for some information about skinning I got a few questions which I've trolled over xda very little and some other sites that never directly point me in the direction I'm looking to go. I have worked with linux is in the past. ex puppy linux which I was very fond of for user information about anything to do with puppy. but I have just learned from trial and error . anyways my questions are as follows.
1.I'm wanting to build a skin for rcmix 3d ver.4 creating sense 3.5 New look and feel while changing icons for a list of apps besides the skin and sense,how do I go about changing icons/skins in apps I download?
2. what programs do I need to take on this task?
3. I am currently not using linux,using windows7 to do this, is this going to matter? or should I switch to a linux based os?
in the end all I wanna do is change the bling appel of my phone with my own custom look not someone else's idea. a basic point in the right direction would be a big help. I my even post some skins to add to the dhd world.thanks in advance.
I want to ask the same questions:
1.I'm wanting to build a skin for rcmix 3d ver.4 creating sense 3.5 New look and feel while changing icons for a list of apps besides the skin and sense,how do I go about changing icons/skins in apps I download?
2. what programs do I need to take on this task?

If you want to get away the easy way, then:
1. Download rom of your choice (.zip format)
2. Extract framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk from that zip file (you'll have to look in the data folder).
3. Go to UOT kitchen and go to file upload tab and then select "upload system files" then upload the ones you've just extracted.
4. Once they are uploaded, you can browse through all the tabs and select things of your choice.
5. When you're finished selecting, go to Sumery tab and cook your files.
6. Wait for 5-10 minutes then go to pickup tab and you should have your .zip ready for that specific rom
7. Flash the .zip
8. Enjoy!
Note: For every rom, the framework and systemui.apk is different so for every different rom you'll have to extract those files from .zip file of that rom
hey thanks,I have been looking at that kitchen cooking but I'm looking for a more manual approach at doing things. can I do that same step guide but manually skin it myself?
how do I manually recompile after I'm done?
I have been creating icons for a little over a week with gimp on windows on free time with a theme in mind looking for more of a one of a kind idea and then maybe adding themes to the dhd network after I get a handle on it, so looking to create theme packs. I been trying to do it with a few apps but I can't get the icons out of the apps to show up when I pull it apart so I figure I'm missing something I would need to go about doing my work. am I missing extensions I need to complete this?

To change the icons in downloaded apps you will need to decompile the apps apk then change out the icon in the app, them recompile. Mind you it will get replaced again when the app updates. A search would lead you to many themeing tuts on XDA
