SystemUi Location? - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

Super noob question here.
When you download a ROM and open the .zip, where exactly is the systemui located? I see a system folder and META-INF folder, but don't know if there is a file called systemui. I am confused.
I am helping out a developer on a project they are working on and need to pull the systemui from a stock ROM I have. Just not sure where to find it.
Thanks in advance for anyone that can respond. Thanks.

You will find it in
/system/app/systemUI.apk

This is the guide i normally send when im asked this question:
First of all, get your framework-res.apk and twframework ,(they're located in system/framework). If you are on gingerbread you also need systemui.apk (in system/app)
Then, download 7zip in case you dont have it.
Right click on framework-res.apk and with 7zip click to extract to /framework-res
You will now have a new folder.
Open it, then open /res and then /drawable-hdpi (framework-res/res/drawable-hdpi)
There are most pngs you'll need to theme.
Edit them and when you've finished editing them, open framework-res.apk with 7zip, delete the res folder, and drag the res from framework-res folder onto it. (Make sure it has copied correctly)
You should now have a framework-res with a new theme
do this also for the other two apks.
There are too many pngs to tell you the function of each, but you can pm me about some
To copy it onto your phone, you can use root explorer or a cwm installable zip.
For cwm, you'll need an updater-script and update-binary or update-script. If you want, i'll make you one.
Damn thanks for your great reply, im gonna read this!
Thanks for the reply I will post my theme next week!
Cheers,
Applefaq
how can I modified the update-binary?
Thanks for the info on gingerbread theming. Is it also safe to swap one 2.33 framework for another while on your cell?
Or is this strictly pc based? I'd like to try exact one already made and replace mine.. Or is that gonna bootloop

Dont unzip. Use apkManager to decompile. This way you will decompile the 9patch png's too.
When compiling remember to say its a system file and delete the modified files from the keep folder.
And convert the 8 bit pngs to rgb 32 bit before editing. Then convert them back to 8bit before recompiling. Or find an editor that supports 8bit. But Adobe Photoshop does not!

If the OP needs any help im glad to give it.
But one question for you other theme gurus:
When decompiling with dependencies do you use twframework or systemui? I always use tw but with gingerbread im getting some wierd errors.

Decompile twframeworkres.apk and change "twcolor3" in res/values/color.xml(should be close enough).
Frameworkres.apk res/color/zzz_tw_secondary_text_sub.xml

I dont understand the question. You decompile with the files it depends on. That's all. SystemUI.apk needs framework-res.apk for example.

I mean that when you decompile frameworkres did you select either.twframeworkres or systemui for the dependancy.

No. framework-res.apk does not depend on any file.

If you only want to change image files then just decompile the apk file and forget about the odex file.

You can make a cwm flash but that will require a reboot.

I am just curious why you want this? The reason I ask... does this remove the AIO Lockmod? I am wanting to install the Starburst ROM, but DO NOT want the lockmod installed. I browsed over the midnight rom and it says included framwork to remove lockmod should you not want it.

But you can extract launcher from leaked sg3 and push it to your sg2. Not sure if the launcher supports gb but I'm on ics and I love it so far.

Go here and download the file
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1666388
Extract the files from system and lib folder and Unzip and push to system/lib and system/app and change the permission to rw-r-r (only for the apk not the lib file)
restart, now you should have the new launcher.
make sure to backup before you do anything this will save you time if something went wrong.

First of all, the file must be renamed to bootanimation.zip. You failed to mention that. Second of all, pushing it to the system/media folder doesn't require changing permissions because it's replacing a file that already had the necessary permissions. Third... It doesn't work.

First I will say thanks for being interested in my boot animation and second u must not know what you are doing because it works just fine and the file doesn't have to be renamed...if u can post or make a video of what you are doing I would be more than happy to help u get the animation working right

Get SystemUI.apk in the zip file of your ROM. Place it on system/app with correct permissions
