Where is the default lockscreen wallpaper file?

I changed my lockscreen wallpaper, now I fancy returning to the default (red starburst design). I cannot find it ANYWHERE. Where is the default lock screen wallpaper?

I couldn't find it either.
I could only access it if I wanted to change the phone wallpaper (not the lockscreen wallpaper) but it still didnt give its location. It is probably buried in a zip file or something

Probably stored in a system apk (like SystemUI.apk or framework-res.apk/touchwiz-framework-res.apk). Browse through some of them with 7-zip, extract any /res/drawable***** folders and look through them, you might find it. If you do, just copy it to your SD card and load it from there.

its inside framework-res.apk under system/framework.

how do i get into system/framework?

any filemanager just about. I use Linda/root explorer.

Wrong y'all
Go with root explorer to data/data/com.coliris.media/files and delete zzzzzz_lockscreen_wallpaper.jpg and you will auto revert to default whatever it is in framework-res.
Or you can delete gallery data In settings and restart phone.

Its Located in this directory
/system/app/TwWallpaperChooser.apk
Better yet intall the ASTRO file manager then hit the search button for the file.

how do you change icons?

Is it possible to teh change the icons of my apps if I am running on runnydroid 4.0? For example, if I wanted to use icons from (http://browse.deviantart.com/customization/icons/?q=android#/d3aiidb) how would I do that? Thanks.

get the apk from your phone (you can navigate to /data/app and copy it to your sd, or you can use "adb pull /data/app/NAMEOFAPK.apk")
add .zip to the end of the file name so it should say NAMEOFAPK.apk.zip
open the zip and navigate to the res folder
look through all of the "drawable" folders and replace any of the icons you want to, making sure you name them the same.
remove the .zip extension
you might have to sign the apk for it to install properly, have a look at this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=997180
now uninstall the old app from the phone, put the new app back on your phone, install (put it on sd and navigate to it and click install, or use "adb install NAMEOFAPK.apk")
i hope that helps!

I think you forgot to finish the tutorial

Made

Thank you very much for writing this up. I will give it a try!

I used to install fonts on the go with Rom Toolbox but on the One only 1 font over 5 is working,many of them will freeze the phone on boot.
Dunno if someone has found an app 100% compatible yet

Will try this evening, thanks

Well for most font apps. It can fully apply on samsung only. For other phone, we need to use carefully as it may cause boot loop.
And now for the One, there are some font apps too, but it still cannot help to change all your font in the system. You can try, but I recommend you to use the method above.
Font apps recommend: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kapp.ifont
Note, it can only change some system font only, not all..... e.g. you can see your installed font in some apps, while in homepage, you will see the stock font

I found a good solution,I downloaded a font resize app because all that matters for me is bigger fonts,I have a short vision weakness

I have the problem of fonts restoring to it's original fonts after reboot.
Someone said to flash custom kernel with rw capabilites change (or) delete certain .ko files under /system/modules.
I can't find how to do both and any ideas please?
Thanks in advance.

Change Nexus 7 Default Font

Hello,
Has anyone succeeded in changing the default font on their nexus 7? I have managed to change the font on my Samsung Galaxy S4 using Romtoolbox however it doesn't seem to be working on the Nexus 7
Any suggestions are welcome :fingers-crossed:

Easy. Root it. Use ifont. Romtoolbox (and apps associated) dont seem to work very well with n7.

The font I'm after is not on Ifont

Not to worry! Download it from the internet and extract the .ttf from the .zip (if it even comes in a .zip) than proceed to the custom section in ifont, press the message at the top, and browse for the .ttf

I am rooted and on Madhi ROM I've just tried and it doesn't work, but thankyou for the suggestion.

OK. I suggest playing with some different font apps. If that does not work, you can replace fonts in any root explorer. The directory is simply /system/fonts

I use an app called fonster, its great for system fonts.

Any chance of changing square widget for light with round note 3 style m?
That square takes up a lot of space on screen.

Wifey has a note 3 with the streamlined widget (since last update ) , makes my square widget look so clunky.

Any chance this would work for our GS4?

Would this be a build.prop edit or ADB decompile thing?

download 7zip (free), Take the apk it is/is in, right click the apk, select extract, go to res/drawable-xxhdpi or res/drawable-sw360dp-xxhdpi, youll find it in one of them, rename the image you want to use and name it the same and copy it to the same place. delete all the other folders inside the res folder except the one/s you swapped images out in, then right click the apk again, select open as archive and just drag and drop the entire res folder you just swapped the image out in, close the window and flash/adb push it to the phone.
Build.prop doesnt control images like that, and adb is for debugging/pushing/pulling/etc purposes
apktool (which I prefer over ones with a GUI like multi-tool, etc) can decompile apks tho. But you dont need to do that if all youre doing is images. If you want to edit xml colors, layouts,or smali edits, and those kinds of mods youll need to decompile the apk.

Thanks, you make sound so simple ??? , I have 7zip already on my pc, just need to extract or d/l image that I need so I can swap it out. Can I save the apk as a zip so I can share it ?
