( MOD )Themed Widget Bar and System icons - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

I've coloured some of the icons used in the system bar and the widget bar in the pull down notifications screen. I originally posted this within another thread as I was changing them but thought I'd post it separately to make it easier to find and also i've changed the colour slightly to better match up.
My icons were grey and it just didn't fit with the ICS colours so I've made them all blue which looks much better in my opinion. I've also changed the data/wifi arrows to white which might not be to everyone's tastes but hey, I like it !
See image below:
I'm using the Apex Rom and I'm not sure of any variations there might be with the icons in other Roms (feedback from anyone would be appreciated).
As for installing these the method I use is with Ninjamorph and I'll explain it here for anyone that's not familiar with it:
1) Open Ninjamorph (available free on the market)
2) Click "New Project"
3) Navigate to where your SystemUI.apk is (mines in /system/data)
4) Open it and go to res/drawable-xhdpi
5) Find the icon you want to change then tap it
6) Navigate to my icons to select its replacement (repeat until you've changed all that you want)
7) Hit the back button til you get to the main Ninjamorph menu
8) Hit "Finish Project" and select systemUI.apk
9) Click Yes to overwrite, NO to zip align (important!!) then yes to delete project(to tidy up)
10) Exit Ninjamorph, Reboot and enjoy.......
The process of replacing the icons needs doing one at a time, there are other methods to move these icons into systemUI.apk so use whatever you know works - I seem to get most joy with Ninjamorph though.....

"porting" lockscreens

I've searched through the forums but i can't find an answer that works.
I want to take a semi-transparent lockscreen from one hero rom and put it on another hero rom that doesn't have a transparent lockscreen
i've tried replacing com.htc.resources.apk and when the phone reboots i hear the notification sound that the USB is connected but all i see is the htc loading symbol. the home screen never loads.

totally going in the wrong way for that
the reason your getting a htc screen hang is bcuase the resources.apk your using prolly came from a different WWE build than the one your applying it to.... so go back to the one that came with your rom ... moving on to transparent lockscreen
what hero rom are you trying to modify and are you trying to mod the lockscreen grafics as well?
if your modding the graphics for the lockscreen bar unzip (using winrar) the apk (keep the original apk file) and inside one of the folders is one called draw port 480x280 the loscreen bar images are right there to edit
when your done editing
open the original resources.apk with winrar and navigate to that drawport480x280 folder
drag your modified images to the winrar window that is opened to the drawport480x280 when you modify the images keep the names that were originally corresponding with the images...so that the system can find them when it loads the lockscreen. and it will have a prompt click on ok and it will put those images back in your apk
now adb push your new resources.apk to your phone reboot to enjoy your modified lockscreen bar.
to change the image to transparent....(use photoshop to make a transparent .jpg image) get in root explorer on your phone and navigate to your /system/etc/lockscreen/port/ folder and the htc.lockcscreen1.jpg image is the one were gunna replace so name your custom image from photoshop the same thign that that htc.lockscreen1.jpg and then adb push (or root explorer copy) it to the /system/etc/lockscreen/port/ to replace original effects should apply immediatly then enjoy your fully modified lockscreen
i'm looking for original lock screen from android to replace hero's one cuz the time and date in original is bigger and backlight timeout is set to 5 sec ( in hero is 15- waste of battery). If you find a way how to do this - please let mi know cuz i've been trying and asking and nobody answered me...

I mean this here
I want each think in its self update.zip so i can test what is good looking for me.
mfg
get the theme you want or rom. extract it. the go to system, framework, then extract framework-res.apk, then go into res and theres most of the highlights and stuff. now it you want the launcher get the theme/rom, then extract it, go to system, app, then extract launcher.apk and theres all of your desktop highlights and launcher.
if you have anymore questions just ask.
Okay thx , drpfenderson helped me too and sayed me the same but i dont
can sign my apks my windows say with my auto signer tool i dont have java but i have java installed... >.<
Could anyone fusion the launcher apk from this theme with the advanced launcher.The black notification bar and the green highligting colour ?
This would be really great
mfg
go get winrar and then right click on the apk/zip and go to properties then go to open with, winrar. then click on the apk/zip and then a little folder will pop up and the you can just drag what you want into it. you will not need to sign it. put it in your working adb directory. and then
adb remount
adb push (file name) /(directory)
adb shell reboot
I got the framework working now
Cann anyone fusin me the launcher from ted with the advanced launcher for 4.1.999
mfg
sorry wrong thread.
if you get winrar and do what i said you dont need it to be signed. you can do it your self and its really easy.
I have it
But i cant port it to 4.199 because its from 1.5 to 1.6 and i cant do this i hope ted port his theme soon
thank you
you can put his launcher in 1.6 im running jacs stuff in my drizzy 1.6. as long as its nothing completly different then you can put it in any rom. i have xroms launcher in 1.6 but just dont put the whole entire launcher in just go into drawable port/land. and take the thing that looks like what your talking about.
I have it
Now i port the framework-res
EDIT: I have a little question i ported the launcher.apk and it works but when i reboot my phone stocks every time in boot logo tmobile and i have to flash new >.< (Is this because my file is not signed ?)
mfg
what you have to do is go find teds launcher.apk and extract it. then go to res, drawable-land and drag those out to your desktop, and then go back to res, then drawable port, and then drag those out to your desktop. and then go find you cyan 4.1.999 and extract it, then click the extracted, then go to system, then app, Launcher.apk (you should be in winrar now), then click res, then click drawable-port, then drag the ones that are in portrait mode into the winrar box. then go back out to res, then click drawable-land, and and drag the ones that are sideways into the winrar box.
put the cyan 4.1.999 Launcher.apk in your working adb directory and type this...
adb remount
adb push Launcher.apk /system/app
adb shell reboot
if you every thing exactly how i told you it will work i do this 10 times a day.
I did this and i see my new launcher but when i reboot the g1 stuck on g1 tmobile screen ... Its just when i modified the launcher when i use the standard launcher it works but when i modified a thing it doesnt boot afer reboot
mfg
for me to be able to help and understand 100% will you explain step by step what you do.
Thx
I got it working now But now is my problem the framwork-res.apk
do you know how i can port this ?? I tried it but it says me a lot of errors like google process gapps is not working right.
mfg
every thing i said for launcher do for frame works. its exactly the same deal. youll start to get the hang of it. its not all that hard it just seems hard.
Now i portede the whole theme but a little problem is in the notification bar , the bar is black and the font colour too where i find this data to change the font colour
Search the Q&A forum for the thread 'help porting theme' david answered that question for me a week ago.
did you have to sign what you did? because when i do it this way i dont.
I tried this on framework-res.apk using the recovery console to place it back on my phone.
i got endless FC. tried fix permissions and wipe dalvik neither worked.
does it have to be ADB? is using the recovery console where i went wrong?
the graphical changes i made worked, but the phone was unuseable.
I always sign mine when I change something. It only takes an extra second, and I flash mine from the phone rather than in adb cuz I always do a backup first just in case.
As for the font colors on the notification bars, you hafta edit some xml files. Those which are posted in the other thread in the Q&A section.

[THEME] ICS Lockscreen + ICS Style Pattern Lock

Featured on XDA Portal Thanks guys!
Also, thanks to zhuhang for including this in his CM7 ICS / Jelly bean look and All in One ICS patch thread
UPDATE: You can now choose between ICS blue/ white style colours or the default green/ red colours for the lock rings, etc., I have attached different the applicable zips ("Lockscreen Icons ICS Blue.zip" and "Lockscreen Icons Default.zip")
Hi XDA
This is my first attempt at doing some DIY themeing, this is very simple and did not take very long to do. Before I say anything else, bear in mind you must have root, and I am not responsible if your device is bricked, set alight or abducted by aliens due to this tutorial.
Screenshots are attached
On the G1, by installing CM7 it is possible to end up with a very nice ICS looking UI. You can do this through applying AChep's ICS theme, installing the Roboto font from ICS using an app such as Type Fresh from Pixelpod INTERNATIONAL and finally from finding ports of actual ICS apps, such as Holo Launcher by Mobint.
There is one problem though, which is that the lock screen is untouchable by themes such as Sonny Sekhon's.
And so we realize that we must theme it ourselves!
The actual lockscreen itself shouldn't be a problem, as CM7 has the option to use a holo style lock ring and to be set to "minimal", and once you have installed the ICS clock font for Clockopia (note that this isn't Roboto) found here (it's in the FontPack-Roboto_E2.zip file), you have a pretty clean looking ICS lock screen (See first attachment). Note I have also set the clock, etc. to be on the right side of the screen.
Now that that's done, onto the pattern lock :laugh: .
So, I don't particularly like the Gingerbread pattern lock anyway, and it looks especially horrible when everything around it is nice and ICS-y.
I found a page here which is a tutorial on how to change the look of the pattern lock, but the icons are the wrong colour and the wrong size, and some icons are missing.
For that reason, I've done the "hard" work for you :laugh: , so on to the tutorial ---->
Firstly, make a nandroid backup, although there shouldn't be much risk involved with this.
The apps you will need are Ninjamorph and to make things easy, a good file explorer, I personally use Ghost Commander.
You are now ready! The steps are as follows...
1. Open up Ninjamorph, grant SU permissions. I think you need to select "Start Checks" first.
2. Select "New Project", and locate framework-res.apk, it will be under /system/framework/ .
3. Although it backs up automatically, enter your file browser, go to /mnt/sdcard/AndroidThemes/workspace/framework-resapk/res/drawable-mdpi and copy the following files to a safe location on your sdcard:
btn_code_lock_default.png
btn_code_lock_touched.png
indicator_code_lock_drag_direction_green_up.png
indicator_code_lock_drag_direction_red_up.png
indicator_code_lock_point_area_default.png
indicator_code_lock_point_area_green.png
indicator_code_lock_point_area_red.png
ic_emergency.png
4. I have attached a zip file named "Lockscreen Icons.zip", in here you will find the icons to theme the pattern lock.
5. Unzip "Lockscreen Icons.zip", then copy the contents to /mnt/sdcard/AndroidThemes/workspace/framework-resapk/res/drawable-mdpi . Notice that the icon names are the same as the ones you backed up, and also the same size. If you feel the need to edit them, do not change the name or size and do not save them as anything other than png files.
6. Open up Ninjamorph and select "Start Checks" as usual (you may need to locate back to the main screen first).
7. Select "Finish Project", then select "framework-resapk".
8. It will ask you to verify, to which you say yes, then ask if you want to zipalign, to which you will say no, I repeat: Do NOT zipalign.
9. Blah blah blah, it will do it's thing, extract and recompile the apk.
10. Now you've just got to reboot! , then admire you're ICS style pattern lock .
I've attached some screenshots of the results, the first 3 are blue/ white theme (no interaction, interaction, wrong pattern) then default green/ red theme (no interaction, wrong pattern, interaction). Note that I have swapped btn_code_lock_default.png and btn_code_lock_touched.png as they were the wrong way round. It is too difficult to get a screenshot, but when the corretc pattern is drawn the small rings/ nodes open up (become "o"s instead of filled in circles) again.
I hope this has helped, please thank me if it has and happy theming .
Media icons + emergency call icon
All screenshots attached at bottom and also in zip file.
I have now extracted the media icons (play, pause, etc.) from the CyanogenMod 9 framework-res.apk and put together this guide so you can make your G1 even more good looking. I have done this as, although CM7 themes do change media icons, as previously mentioned, the lockscreen is not effected
but no worries :victory: just read on --->
1. Read the above tutorial so you have everything you need, etc.
2. Once you have gotten up to step 2, stop reading and follow this insead --->
3. Enter your file browser, go to /mnt/sdcard/AndroidThemes/workspace/framework-resapk/res/drawable-mdpi and copy the following files to a safe location on your sd card:
ic_media_ff.png
ic_media_next.png
ic_media_pause.png
ic_media_play.png
ic_media_previous.png
ic_media_rew.png
4. I have attached a zip file named "Media Icons.zip", in here you will find the icons to theme the media icons.
5. Unzip "Media Icons.zip", then copy the contents to /mnt/sdcard/AndroidThemes/workspace/framework-resapk/res/drawable-mdpi . Notice that the icon names are the same as the ones you backed up, and also the same size (as in image size (width, etc.), not file size). If you feel the need to edit them, do not change the name or size and do not save them as anything other than png files.
6. Open up Ninjamorph and select "Start Checks" as usual (you may need to locate back to the main screen first).
7. Select "Finish Project", then select "framework-resapk".
8. It will ask you to verify, to which you say yes, then ask if you want to zipalign, to which you will say no, I repeat: Do NOT zipalign.
9. Blah blah blah, it will do it's thing, extract and recompile the apk.
10. Now you've just got to reboot!
I have also attached "Emergency Call Icons.zip", this themes the emergency call button (transparent background, grey call icon and blue on press). Do the same as above with btn_default_pressed.9.png, btn_default_transparent_normal.9.png and ic_emergency.png .
I will attach some screenshots later. Hope you like it , if you do, thank me and happy theming. :good:

Yeah, forgot to say, but obviously anyone feel free to make this better / resize for another device , This isn't all my original work as half the icons are resized and recoloured from another device.
Samsung Galaxy S II T989
Can someone resize the icons for the Galaxy S II T989 PLEASE?
The Dots are to small for my phone can someone teach me to rezsize or do it for me Please?
-Thanks
Found Out how to make them Bigger
USe this online editing tool h_tt_p://_pixlr.c_o_m/editor/ Without underscores , It wouldnt let me post the link...
Any who just use the lockscreen download which is provided in this thread, and open up the link...Locate the folder and one by one in the editing tool, go under IMAGINE and under imagine click on Imagine size to 120Pixels or what ever you like for every picture EXCEPT these two "indicator_code_lock_drag_direction_green_up" & "indicator_code_lock_drag_direction_red_up" I Did these for my Galaxy S II T989 using NinjaMorph...
Sorry for Double posting
I was looking for a guide like this, because I don't like the pattern lock of cm7 the dots are overlapped, etc. But I follow your steps and all, and after ninjamorph rebooted my phone, it went onto a bootloop. Why? What did I do wrong? Luckily, I made a backup before doing this, but I wonder why I can't have the ICS pattern style...

hmm... Did you make sure Ninjamorph had fully finished (there should be a message saying "all done" and if it worked your wallpaper would have reset before a reboot). You say ninjamorph rebooted your phone - do you actually mean this, as it should tell you to reboot, but should not reboot for you; if it froze and rebooted, that means something didn't. work .
I can't remember if there are hdpi etc. folders but also make sure you're sticking everything into the drawable-mdpi folder and that you're replacing files as opposed to just making copies (filename.png, filename-1.png etc.).
The only other thing I can think of is that I've made a typo (unlikely as obviously I tested these myself first) or your framework-res is weird (I practicaly pulled that idea out my ar*e - I highly doubt this is the case). I think all you can do is tell me what rom you're on and which theme (blue or green) you used..... it would help alot if you could PM me your unthemed framework-res.apk if at all possible.
I hoped this helps and sorry for the late reply, but if all goes well you might want to check out post 2: I've got stuff for media icons + emergency call button
One last thought... I've been assuming you're trying this on a g1... if not then the sizing is probably incorrect (sorry, just checking )

Thanks for your reply, I'm not using a G1 I tried this on a Live with Walkman, but for what I know I think it's the same resolution, (320x480) and I followed every step in order, I even tried replacing files with the ninjamorph app, and with the root explorer too, but nothing seems to work, when my phone reboots it always goes into a bootloop, is it possible for you to upload the framework-res.apk? If you need mine I can upload it, just tell me, I'm using CM7.2 official rom, with the default kernel that comes with the rom. I don't know where did I go wrong. :/

If you're using a different phone then perhaps there is a different naming scheme or dimensions or something (but probably not because you're using the same ROM) not entirely sure but it would help alot if you uploaded / PMed me your (unmodded) framework-res.apk . Thanks

[Theme][Theme Chooser] Archos Fixer

Seeing as the G9 doesn't have a Themes section, it'll have to go here
The theme simply adds battery % in the notification area and gets rid of the no signal icon present in Non-Archos based custom ROMs
YOU NEED A ROM WITH THEME CHOOSER TO USE THIS, SUCH AS CM10, CM9 or AOKP!
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.quinny898.theme.archosfixer
Instructions to apply:
1.) Using a root file manager, backup your build.prop
2.) Open the build.prop (in /system)

[How to] Modify Onscreen Navbar Buttons in HTC 10 Leedroid Rom

I'm one of a few who prefer using Onscreen Navbar Buttons and as i'm using them in Leedroid Rom, i need to modify them to my liking.
And as i have seen others with the same question, how to do that, i make a short, quick tutorial, what you have to do!
Overview:
- Second post deals with changing the images of the buttons
- Third post shows you, what to do to change the behavior if you push the buttons (based on xposed)
Disclaimer:
This part is modifying SystemUI.apk. If you make it wrong, or if you flash an outdated apk, your System/Phone might get unusable!
Make a backup in recovery and from everything which is important to you,just in case of. Better save than sorry
So, let's start!
Just want to thank some guys before, for their suggestions and for their input which i learned a lot from:
- LeeDroid
- Mr Hofs
- ckpv5
- xpirt
- baadnewz
Changing the images of the buttons
You need:
- WinRar or 7zip
- SystemUI.apk (must be deodexed, the apk from Leedroids rom is)
- your new button images as .png
How to:
Copy your SystemUI.apk from System/priv-app/SystemUI folder to your computer. Now you can open it with WinRar or 7zip. Make sure you just open it, do not extract it! Go to \res\drawable-xxxhdpi-v4 folder, there you will find the files to replace. And these files are:
- navigation_icon_back
- navigation_icon_down
- navigation_icon_home
- navigation_icon_recent_apps
I want the buttons to look like on my M8, so i used the png files from it. These are in size 76x76 and look a bit small. The google images are 88x88. I used an online png converter to resize the png's without loosing quality to 90x90 which is a good size for my liking.
So make sure, that your png files are named correctly, then drag and drop them into the opened apk file, into the drawable-xxxhdpi-v4 folder. Close the open apk window, thats it. Now you should be able touse this file for your Leedroid Rom.
Notice:
If you want the same images as i use, you can use for the actually Leedroid Rom (v4.0.0 svn119) the zip file from attachment and flash it in recovery.
You can also take my zip from attachment and replace the SystemUI.apk in \system\priv-app\SystemUI with your modded apk file and flash it with recovery (do it the same way like we replace the png's, drag and drop the apk and it will replace my SystemUI.apk).
But be aware: if Lee changes things in SystemUI.apk the file may need to be modded again! Otherwise it can cause an unusable System! Keep that in mind please. If you use svn, you can check what files are modded.
So, that's all. Nothing new or serious groundbreaking, but as i have seen the question if it's possible a couple of times, i felt it is time to write some words about it.
Maybe i'll add some pictures later on.
Have fun!
Change the behavior if you push the buttons (based on xposed)
This part is not really modding, as we use existing solutions. But i asked myself a long time, if its possible to do on Sense Rom while i'm on Resurrection Remix (where this is an basic feature). And it wasn't that easy way, until xposed for Nougat was released. But now i know that it will work and maybe this will help others, thats why i'll write here what to do.
You need:
- XposedInstaller (latest right now is 3.1.4, https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3034811)
- Xposed framework as in recovery flashable zip from here (at the moment, for Leedroid Rom sdk24/arm64/)
- GravityBox [N] for Nougat
- if you want to remove it, the xposed uninstaller
How to:
Flash the xposed framework with the zip file in recovery. Reboot (may take a while) and intall the XposedInstaller.apk and the GravityBox [N] modul.apk.
Open xposed, go to module and tick the checkbox for GravityBox [N] (or activate the module from statusbar directly after you have installed it). A reboot is needed.
Open GravityBox, go to Navigation bar tweaks, enable the "Master switch" and make sure the checkbox by "Enable navigation bar" is ticked. A reboot may be needed.
Go back, scroll down and enter Navigation keys actions. Here you can set the actions for each button (Home, Back, Recents and if you use Menu). Also Long-press or Double-tap actions. It is very self explanatory here. If you scroll down, you can also set speed or dely for some actions. As far as i remember, again a restart is necessary.
Thats it.
I hope that helps some people to find their way around!
xstansa lets you change on screen nav buttons without modifying systemui as well
