Carrier Name Change - Nexus 4 Themes and Apps

Does anyone know how to change the carrier name that is displayed on the lock screen and notification pulldown?
I have tried the method here, but it doesn't seem to work.

Only way I know is with a custom ROM.
AOKP has the option to change the carrier text.

This is only for branded phones. (Verizon etc.)
What you can do is to decompile your framework-res and delete the line, which contains id/carrier from the keyguard_screen_tab_unlock.xml, which is located in the layout folder. But this will just remove the label.^^

The Carrier name is read off of the SIM, so you'll have to change it inside the two places inside framework-res for your lock screen and notification drawer.
I believe the custom ROMs that allow for changing this replace all instances of the carrier name with a user-editable string/field that defaults to the system value(read from SIM card) when left null.

Actionbar

Is there a file I can download that allows me to remove the action bar? Or do I need to use a different ROM?

Upload your framework-res.apk and I'll send you a .zip.
You can add this line to your build.prop
qemu.hw.mainkeys=1 or let Jubakuba edit your current framework.apk

Good solution...
But the harder solution is "better" in that you'll still get ICS+ optimized menu buttons. (You know, the three dots. If apps see that you "don't have" a NavBar" they don't show the three dots...since that generally means you have a hard menu button).
Decompile framework-res.apk
/res/values/dimens.xml holds three lines in relation to navbar size. Edit all three to 0.0.
Profit.
For this person your edited framework would be best. In my case I use gesture to control back, home, menu & power off/on, so the build.prop is best for me.
How do I do that?

[Q] how do I change "T-Mobile" in notification bar and lock screen

To clear the title up some. This is located at the bottom of the notification bar once its pulled down. It is also located at the top of the lock screen. I know its in the system, I just don't know where it is located in the system. I'm pretty sure this can be changed. Custom ROMs I have flashed in the past have had something different there. I just want to know exactly where in the system this file is located

I found the images in drawable xhdpi for the bar T-Mobile shows up on in the pulldown so I'm assuming there's an XML file that says to show which carrier you're connected to there. Look in... see pix below.
Because I have no clue and until someone who knows shows up I'd suggest pulling the systemui apk and using a computer to dig around.

[Q] How to change the color of dialer keys?

Hi, I was wondering if anyone knows how to change the text color of dialer keypad.
Since past 2-3 days I have tried out lots of stuff but couldn't find a way

			
				
1) Color is set in a separate file inside the Dialer.apk.
2) Color is set by it's code within one of the .xml files.
Only these 2 are possible. I have not worked on Dialer myself, so I cannot help any further.

Yeah, I tried changing every .xml files with @Color/white to "#33B5E5" from SemcPhone, framework-res and Phonebook.apk but still no changes, keypad text is still white.
Using CM?
If yes, try to download a theme and move it to your pc. Maybe it will be easier to find what you are looki g for

Can I change the color of phone icons?

Is it possible to change the color of the icons in the contact list? The green is killing my b/w theme & I would like to change them to white.
Any input would be appreciated.

Yes, it is possible
Probably inside framework-res.apk, twframework-res.apk, or SecPhone.apk

I looked in SecContacts.apk.
Found, inside the drawable-sw359dpi-xhdpi folder, the icon that appears to match the one in the screenshot.
"ic_call.png"
There's a few others with the exact same icon in that folder and I have no idea which one Samsung's call log/contacts pulls from so I'd just change them all. (I hate how many redundant images exist in the Touchwiz Framework.)

OH WHOOPS. Yeah you're right, the images SHOULD be in SecContacts. Didn't notice she was in the contacts tab, which opens the contacts app. You can tell that I use my phone as a phone very often lol
