Thanks dud ... =)
I'm here. Now I'm guessing you want to change default cm theme to your preference on boot. You will have to theme framework. Give me the theme you want and the rom. I will change the system theme.

IS THAT RELATED ?
You can start by just copying and extracting the framework-res.apk in the system/framework folder of any theme. I recommend using a stock deodexed theme template as this will give you a good foundation to build from. After you extract the framework-res.apk look in the res/drawable-mdpi folder. That is where most of the icons will be that are used for theming. You can pull any of the .png's and edit them this way. DO NOT mess with any of the icons labeled .9.png when editing the framework-res.apk this way (see info on .9's below). And don't (generally) don't change the size of the png's you edit.
When getting started the best way I found to figure out which images are used where was to flash the same theme as the one I am editing to my phone so I can look at the phone and try to figure out where the icon (image) is being used. If I still can't find it then I will take my best guess and color the image something bright like red or another color thats not used in the theme I'm making. Then I put the color edited icon in my theme and flash it (see below) then go through my phone and find whats red.
After you edit all the .png's you want and are ready to put your theme back together:
Open a copy of the original theme that you used as a base and open the system/framework/framework-res.apk in 7zip. DO NOT extract it. Just open it. Then go to res/drawable-mdpi (or whatever folder you edited the icons in) and place your edited icons back into this folder. After you finish, close 7zip, rename your new theme so you don't confuse it with the theme template you are using and flash away.
I'm not going to go into great detail about how to do the things below because I simply don't have the time. I have given you enough information that you should be able to google and look for guides on youtube that will get you through the process below.
When editing .9.png's (commonly refered to as .9's) you need to pick up some software. First you'll need to download and install the jdk and jre. Google them. They are on Java's web site. Once you get those installed you'll need to get apk tool or apk manager, I prefer apk tool myself, and decompile the framework-res.apk to be edited.
If you edit the .9's but stay away from that one pixel wide border you won't have to patch your .9's. This is what I do. When I open a .9 to edit the first thing I do is draw a selection box around the image making sure to stay clear of the one pixel wide border. This way all my changes stay inside the selection box. If you ever do decide you need to patch your .9's there is a program called draw9patch that will do this for you.
Happy Theming!!

I've been reading the theme guides and, time permitting, would like to start playing around. I've been comparing files from the stock theme template to crakes battery percent mod found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=793805&highlight=battery+mod and have been trying to figure out how to use it in another theme. Is it as simple as adding the extra stat_sys_battery_#.png's or does something else have to be done to the framework-res.apk to get the phone to point to the added pngs? I hope thats understandable, thanks in advance for your help all!

If your theme has 1% intervals already its just a matter of swapping the png files. If the theme don't your gonna have to devompile the apk and edit 3 xml files then recompile
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
okay, ya thats what i was wondering. any help on the xml files to edit and how? i've got apk manager and have it decompiled, i dont see anything that jumps out.
EDIT: okay i've got in the drawable folder stat_sys_battery, stat_sys_battery_charge, stat_sys_battery_charge_err_vinsq, stat_sys_battery_charge_vinsq, stat_sys_battery_vinsq. my guess is its 3 of those, i guess i can just compare the stock theme with the stock battery mod to see what to do.

in general, yes, but i may not know how for these purposes. what might i be missing?
There's an even easier way.
start adb
and type adb pull /system/framework/framework-res.apk framework-res.apk
(grab frameworkTW-res.apk*i think* if you want it for touchwiz instead)
Next
go here UOT Kitchen
select flashable .zip
go through the stuff
upload the framework-res.apk you just pulled.
wait a bit download package and move to sd card then browse and install it and reboot.
TADA!

Sounds great but just remember if your theme has any edited .9.pngs you will get errors with the framework.

basically i want to work in a battery % mod into the theme from AOSP Magic (partially just to see if i can do it ). when you say "has any edited .9.pngs" do you mean if i edit any? or if the theme contains any that are already edited.

ya i'm a little confused at that point on how i'd handle that. anywhere i can read up on that?
so basically if the theme i want to mod has .9.pngs that were edited from stock, when i decompile and recompile with the new xmls its going to break something? if so, what would i do? use the battery % mod theme and dump the drawable-hdpi folder into the apk after?

What I do is modify the xml files ona stock framework. Make all the changes I need then recompile. Once compiled its a matter of dragging and dropping the pngs

gotcha, perfect thanks!
i'm using repencis by now..
and i see that the 'important' apps icon changed (such as messages and gallery) after flash into repencis....
the question: how to do that? how to changed the icon?
edit the apk(s)? or we can make a CWM-flashable *.zip file?
well,i'm really newbie here.. any rom developer,please don't be mad at me?
Not difficult but neither easy. For repensis, make another ROM based on that. for newbies, I don't think you should try this, but if you think, pm me.

Update to v3. Its better, IMO. Since you dont have Repencis Labs, download DCSMS Icon Patcher 1.0. You can change icons with this.
Are you talking about the user applications like facebook, tweeter, games, etc.?
If that's the case then this instructions will help you.. (i'm not good in making instructions by the way since i'm not really good in english )
I did it manually by dragging the modified icons with the same filename and size in the res / drawable-ldpi folder inside the apk file using Winrar then i used AUTOSIGN to resign the apk (i used photoshop to resize & do a little editting on icons)..
here's my modified apk icons, i used YouEye icon theme:

Do it again but before starting you need to install framework-res.apk and twframework-res.apk Plz write your future issues to the kitchen thread so that others will benefit from the answers.

Hello Everyone,
as the Title says. We like to mod the statusbar of our Gnex with an backround image.
I tried and searched long to find out how to and finally I found this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1814441
and I can say this works, but you have to follow some steps of mine, so this really really works.
At first I will give credits to powerpoint45, he is the man, who has done all this getting to work. Please hit his thanks-button!!!!
Ok, now we start:
1. Step is, to download the files of powerpoint45 thread
2. Step is to follow his guide, but this is new: use the framework-res of your rom you like to use
So first install the framework-res.apk of your ROM and then install the SystemUI.apk of your ROM
When the SystemUI is successfully decompiled, there you can see a folder "SystemUI"
Go into this folder and then go into the res folder and then into the "drawable-xhdpi" folder
Here you will find a file called "status_bar_bg_tile", this file you can change out with a png you want, but the file must have the SAME name. The size of the png should be 720x30 (CREDITS HERE TO BANKS)
When you replaced this file with the one of your choice , you have to go to the folder /res/values
Here you pick out the drawable.xml
Open with notepad++
edit line 5 into this: @drawable/status_bar_bg_tile
Save the file
Now, make the way Powerpoint45 recompiles, but before you have to copy the META_INF and manifest.xml from the ORIGINAL SystemUI.apk into the decompiled SystemUI folder.
It is possible that you will not see an builded apk like the terminal says, so try this command:
java -jar apktool.jar b SystemUI
After that, there should be a new folder called "dist", here you will find the new SystemUI.apk
Install the new SystemUI the way you like. I use push via adb - then fix permissions (IMPORTANT)
Last Thanks to Powerpoint45 and Banks
I hope this helps you to customize your Gnex a little more!!!
If I missed something, correct me! This is my first little how to! AND SORRY FOR MY BAD ENGLISH!

Yeah, you should be alright to resize the image. I don't think you can just make a zipthemer mod since the stock SystemUI calls out an image HEX color instead of an actual image. You would still have to decompile your SystemUI and make that XML edit. After you made that edit, you can rename the statusbar png to w/e you want and make the necessary changes to the XML to call out that image.
Example: <drawable name="status_bar_background">@drawable/whatever your image name is.png</drawable>
drawable.xml is not available in the rom I use. I found an status_bar_bg.xml, but I am not able to open it with notepad++. Decompiling only show *.smali so no xml files
I managed to change the image that I want but still black is shown in statusbar, so wich xml file to edit so that the image is shown?
I attached the sysui.apk The rom I use is jbsourcery2.1
Maybe someone could help better.
Watch out the status_bar_bg_tile.png it is now an image with size 720x30
You should be able to just put an image in the xhdpi folder called status_bar_background.png. I don't recall needing to change any XML to add an image

I have done it, you can see it in the attached file, the image does not change. Status bar is still black
AHHH..., you mean such adding this file

I decompiled your SystemUI apk and see what you did wrong. You need to have an image name status_bar_background.png as I said before. Not the tile one. Try this and see if it works http://www.mediafire.com/?cka1374omcxny1h
Send me your framework-res.apk I'll take a crack at it

Does so much people only like the black boring Statusbar?
Doing this, makes it even possible to set a complete transparent Statusbar.
Hm..., somebody interested in Silver Stausbar Icons? Like this:

Thanks for the tutorial. Works like a charm. Question though, has anybody else tried to make a transparent status bar? Mine always reverts back to black and I was just wondering if anyone else had the same problem.

Right now I'm not using tablet mode or anything. I am using a galaxy nexus and when I make it transparent it will look as intended, but then when I open an app or menu and return to the home screen it stays black and the transparency isn't there anymore. Tried using custom images and also just tweaking the colors in the files but both have the same results. I'm stumped at this point.

Hello to everybody!!!
Finally the mod is complete!!!
A true new vanilla (holo stock) style theme is ready and can be installed on our device like a simple application!!!
No root required, no change in system directory, no strange operation to do! just install the APK in attachment.
You will have a new theme in the list, it is similar to stock JB theme.
It is for Italian version (E975) but it should works on other versions too! (please send feedback about)
Enjoy!!!!! and hello to everybody!!!!
I will be happy to receive feedback.
P.S. I found that is possible to make and install how much theme we want on our phone! LG rules this time!
EDIT
in the next pages you can found and download other very nice themes created by Syhon! (iphone,xperia Z, sense 5 and many more)
thanks to Syhon
EDIT 2

Good job!
Can´t you just name differently? I.e "LGHome3_Theme_Holo".
What tools do you use to compile and recompile?

Hello,
simply APK tool. I've tried to rename it (not only the pack, but decompiling and re-compiling the entire smali content) but then, it was not recognized by the launcher. Now I'm full of work and I can't spent time on this. maybe in the next week I can attempt to make a better mod.
Anyway, without tool, you can just substitute icon you want in APK file with winrar
bye
I threw in a bunch of new icons in "drawable-xhdpi" with winrar and then pushed the apk back to system but it didnt work so i guess i have to rename all icons to corresponding original names if i want it to work Thanks for the tip!

Ok. So here are my conclusions:
- It looks great and it is the best thing you can install on your optimus g
- You used odexed file so it need corresponding .odex file which probably means that you cannot change name without: a) deodexing or b) using correct .odex file.
- You used icons with too small resolution so they are not looking so good as they should be

Yes you are right! mine is just an idea to implement. I will try to deodex the file, modify it and to make a copy as a new theme. If it will work, for sure a better theme can be done, But now I don't wont to spent time on one of the stock theme (as the mode work now), just becouse I dont wont to corrupt any file in system directory to avoid problem with future update
next week for sure I will have much time to implement it. If someone could help I will be very gratefull

Hello to everybody!!! this is my first mod for this phone. I've modified stock biz theme to trasform it on a stock JB holo theme
You need a root devices. Just copy the attached file in system/app folder and replace the original biz theme apk. (remember to make a backup before!!!!!!)
Please be sure to assign RW-R-R permission. Then restart device!!!
It is for Italian version (E975) I don't know if works on other versions
I've no much time, so I will be really greatfull if someone can found a way to create new theme without overwrite existing ones.
Theme can have some imperfections, for example app drawer in landscape is not modified. Please consider this a beta.
byeeeee
(there are 4 zip file in attachment due to upload limitation, download every file and extract all of them on the same folder. Then extract only the .zip file (contained in the first attachment) to obtain the APK )

Hello, i've tryied again and the files in attachment still works. First step is to extract all the files in the same folder. Then you will have 1 zip and 3 other file. Now just extract the zip one (I've used win zip).
Anyway... In the next hours i will post the new version! So you can simply wait
In the new version you don't have to substitute a stock theme... But you have just to copy the apk in system folder to have a all new vanilla extra theme! coming very soon!

Hi,
I ve updated the iphone theme previously posted to add more icons, application background transparency and new drawer icon.
Also i port the icons and background from crystal 2 theme (originaly made by DaRk_dOg for cm roms http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1951690 ) which is the best theme ever.
