Editing APKs to match themes (Not just app icons!)

I've never started a thread here, as I rarely have a unique idea - but this time I've decided to bite the bullet and share my experience.
It has been discussed on these forums about editing the APKs for non-stock apps in order to make the icon match the theme throughout the OS (as opposed to using Bettercut or similar to just change the homescreen icon). It has also been discussed elsewhere, but I can't find the link.
My problem was very similar, yet different, so I figured I'd play around and see what I could come up with.
I use the unbelievably sexy GlossSuite theme by Moonsspoon which uses this cool little icon in the notification bar to alert you to having a new SMS (and maybe MMS, not sure...).
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I also use the app from the market called SMS Popup. If you dont know what it is, check it out - very handy. One of my favorite features of the app is that you can use it for your SMS notifications, and it allows you to set a custom vibe pattern and it will flash the LED the color of your choice - both very helpful to let you know that it's an SMS you're getting instead of a call or whatever...
You need to turn off the native SMS app's notifications when you use this feature of SMS Popup so that you dont get 2 alerts every time you get a message. The drawback to this, while using a theme like GlossSuite, is that the notification icon for messages that SMS Popup uses is the stock icon:
This is only a problem if you're OCD like myself.
I had already gotten the png icon extracted from the GlossSuite theme in hopes that I could just swap it out with the icon inside the SMS Popup apk (if I could find it, that is).
So I decided to crack open the APK for SMS Popup and see if I could find the icon used and what I could do to make it use the icon from the GlossSuite theme.
Inside the APK in the /res/drawable folder there are 2 images: The app's icon, and the icon used in the notification bar. And to make it even easier, the file name was exactly the same as the file used by the GlossSuite theme! Easy enough!
I used 7zip (WinRAR should work just fine too) to:
1. Open the APK
2. Navigate to the /res/drawable folder
3. Delete the stat_notify_sms.png
4. Drag and drop the png I extracted from the theme into it's spot
5. Delete the META-INF folder inside the SMS Popup APK
-- I got this info from the previously mentioned thread about swapping non-stock icons. It is so that when you resign the APK in the next step, the keys don't conflict with what the APK dev has used (or something like that - I admittedly don't know anything about keys and signing and all that jazz)
6. Close your archiving application.
I then used this auto-signing tool posted by "Dave Da illest 1" to resign the APK using the testkeys. It had to be edited slightly to sign APKs instead of ZIP files. If you want to download my edited version of the auto-signing tool, click here.
Uninstalled the previous version of the app, copied the APK over to my SDcard and then used AppManager to install the APK, and now:
(yes, I know there are typos...)
It works!
I'm sure most of your brainiacs here at XDA have figured this out on your own, but I couldnt find any solid information on it so I figured I'd share what little knowledge I had on the subject.
If you want to try this for yourself and want the icon from the GlossSuite theme, it is here.
And if you just happen to have GlossSuite installed and are using SMS Popup and would like my already edited version of the APK, click here.
[DISCLAIMER: If my sharing of this APK goes against any rules of the forum, please excuse my ignorance. If I find out this is the case, and a mod hasn't beat me to the punch, I'll gladly remove this link!]
So - with all that being said, I should clarify that I haven't done any theme creation (although I have edited a few pngs here and there, but nothing major), so obviously this bit of information is probably well below most of you... But if it can help anyone, then yay for my first real contribution to this community.

Awesome find. When I finally settle on a version I think I will sit down and do this for a few Apps. I havent heard anything on it before so as far as I'm concerned your the first!
|Spike|

i am trying to do something very similar- i am trying to install the file below as my status bar icon but when i use your autosign app (and the other auto sign app) i still get a "this cannot be installed on your device" or something similar....
did you have this issue ever?
After resigning with your tool did you then name it back to what is originally was or did you leave the name as to what the autosign converted it to?

fixed. apparently you need to uninstall the app first. wonder how this affects updates of it in the future?

great find. im also curious to know how updates will affect the app (if the market place will even tell us if ther is an update)

Yeah thanks for pointing this out - I added the "remove old version" step to my information in the original post.
And since the process goes as such, as far as the Market is concerned, the app isn't even installed on the phone, so I would assume that you won't be notified of updates.
And, of course, if you manually notice an update in the Market and install the app from there, you won't have your changes in place... would have to go thru the process again I believe.

That's where aTrackDog comes into play.
Keep all your apps uptodate even if the market doesn't know.

yeah- for sure. now that i have flashed to 5.0G none of my apps show up in my downloads so i stick with atrackdog. i am wondering if an update is found by atrackdog will it be able to be installed over the top of the altered one we have installed....

2. Navigate to the /res/drawable folder
Am I supposed to open the APK on my phone or computer? I can't find this folder.

Its simply just replace the image with your own, resign, install and you're good to go. Heres an example of what you could do.
I made this months ago but didn't think it was anything special so i never said anything. Lighting bolt at the top is the triangle notification.

copy it from your phone to your pc using adb.

For non-stock apps, you can use a free app called AppManager to copy non-protected apps to your SD card.
Or, you can just use the terminal emulator
cd data/app
ls
[shows a list of all non-protected apps installed]
cp [filename.apk] /sdcard/[backup folder of your choice]
This same method can be used for protected apps if you can find the correct folder... But I won't provide that info, because I'm sure that's against the rules of these forums.

Congrats. Like I said, this isn't rocket science. But for a n00b like me (and apparently others) this was good information that I'm glad I posted.

so how do edit the files in update.zip without getting an error?

Thanks, works for me on CM9. I unistalled the old market with titanium backup after a nandroid backup and placed vending.apk it in /system/apps, reboot and finished

Not working on LPS - parse error

@protetul: don't try to install it, download the version that xinfinityoO posted and place it in /system/app, change the permissions and reboot, it should work. I use the latest nightly of CM9 and it works great.

Hi I am unable to download the attachement in your post when i try to download it.. its too small and has a problem parsing the package.

Try to download the version in post #2 and look at the post before yours.

Links fixed + Mod Version added!

2) Download Root Explorer if you don't have it installed
3)Go to /system/app/ and delete the Vending.apk (Phonesky.apk for ICS 4.x.x) (leave the Vending.odex untouched!). Make sure you have an backup your old Vending.apk (Phonesky.apk for ICS 4.x.x) to your SDCard as well.
4) Install the downloaded Vending.apk (rename it to Phonesky.apk if you have ICS 4.x.x)
5) Reboot your phone
6) Start Play Store and grant the access. You'll be asked to do so
7) Enjoy!

[MOD] [KRT16S/KOT49H] [Update] No Google Search Bar w/o Uninstalling Google Search

Why Google thinks I need the quick search bar at the top of every screen is a mystery to me.
Do I use it? Sure, all the time, but I hate the big white bar on the top of all my screens. You can uninstall or freeze Google search to remove it, but then you don’t have it anymore!!!
So I have edited the Launcher2.apk file so that it doesn’t display the search bar and spread the screen out a little to fill the empty space, but Google search is still installed! You can simply go to the widgets and select google search, and paste it ANYWHERE on ANY screen and RESIZE it also!!!
The only issue I have found so far is that Google decided to imbed the remove icon in with the search bar (the place where you drag an icon to remove it from the screen). You can still remove an icon by flicking it upward though. Thanks @MilkyJoePD for reminding me, I deserve a big Duh! This mod is only for portrait orientation, landscape is unaffected (no white bar to bother me so I left it alone). Deleting icons is the same as it always was in landscape orientation. Turn your Nexus sideways, remove whatever you want without any problem.

IMPORTANT NOTES:
This is based off of stock roms. I deodexed the launcher and did my mods. If you are already running a deodexed rom, flash away! If your rom is odexed, this will still work fine, BUT YOU MUST MANUALLY DELETE THE Launcher2.odex file from the /system/priv-app folder after you flash it. If you’re using twrp, simply mount system and then use the file explorer to navigate to the /system/priv-app directory and delete the odex file. I haven’t used CWM for quite awhile and don’t remember off the top of my head how to do it from there. You can also delete it using adb (boot into recovery, mount system, then "adb shell" then "rm /system/priv-app/Launcher2.odex").
If you use the “Restore Stock Launcher” zip, it restores the stock deodexed launcher. It should run fine, even on an odexed rom (assuming you deleted Launcher2.odex).
Will this work on other devices? Like the 3g. I have no idea, I don’t have one (probably yes). Do a nandroid and try it.
Speaking if nandroid, DO ONE!!! I have flashed this many, many times on my device (2012 WiFi), and everything has been fine, but other than that, no other testing has been done.

I'm running KitKat 4.4.2 and I have Launcher2.
What setup uses Launcher3? This mod was pretty easy, If I get Launcher3 I can get it done pretty quickly.

To remove an icon you can just fling it up, no need to find the sweet spot.

[TUTORIAL] How to replace the stock Camera & Gallery with AOSP versions (ROOT)

The stock camera on this phone blows as we all know. But fear not... the AOSP camera is completely compatible with our Moto G!:laugh::good: I'll give a quick tutorial on how to replace your camera for people that are new to this. But for those of you that have been around the block, basically youre just going into system/priv-app and renaming the moto cam & gallery apk's to apk.bak, then copy/pasting the attached camera and gallery apks to the system folder, setting R/W permissions, and rebooting.
Now for the step by step... (i'll be using Solid Explorer for this example, because its free from the play store, but you can use any file exploring app you like as long as it has root access)
1. Download the zip file in the link https://www.dropbox.com/s/crpilccds52lmaw/AOSPcam&gallery.zip and extract it. Inside should be two files, GalleryGoogle.apk and GoogleCamera.apk. Copy them to the internal storage of your phone.
2. Download Solid Explorer from the play store. Open it up and hit the jump button at the bottom, then device, then system root.
3. Now scroll down to the system folder, tap it and go into the priv-app folder. Scroll down till you see four files - MotCamera.apk, MotCamera.Odex, MotGallery.apk, & MotGallery.odex. For each one, hold down on it until the option to Rename it pops up, then add ".bak" to the end of each one. (example, MotCamera.odex = MotCamera.odex.bak) SuperSU should pop up asking for root access, grant it of course.
{

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
4. When youre done renaming, hit the jump button again, then device> Internal Memory. Inside should be your two files you downloaded earlier. Hit the actions button at the bottom, then select, and highlight the 2 files and hit the copy button at the bottom (the 4th one that looks like two little papers). Now hit Jump> Device> System Root and go into the system folder, then the app folder. Hit actions again and Paste.
5.Stay in the system/app folder, now find you two files you just pasted, and hold down on one of them, then tap Properties, and where it says Attributes hit change. You should only have 4 checkmarks here: Read for Owner, Group, and Other... and Write for Owner. Anything else thats checked, uncheck it. Hit ok and do the same for the other one.
6. Follow the directions in this post to fix fc's in gallery editor (thanks tazlooney89 :thumbup: ) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=49263859
7. Now reboot and youre all done! Now you have a less crappy camera and a smoother gallery app! :highfive:

Nope, no photosphere. It does have a lot more options, like selecting MP size, scenes, and ISO.
*as a side note, part of the reason the stock Moto camera takes such crappy pics is that by default it takes pics at 3.5 MP. Uncheck the 16:9 option to get the full 5 MP :thumbup:

Same here. ES has root access according to SU app, but when I try to rename it, I get task failed.
Running on 4.4.2 US retail.

Oops... Sorry guys, I didn't realize ES was having problems. I personally did it with Root Explorer app, but since it's a paid app I didn't want to recommend it...
But I suggest using Solid Explorer, it has a free trial version and I've tested it just now so I know it works, just follow the use basic instructions as before. I'll update the op a little later:banghead:

Does it seem to you pictures are any better? I can't decide.

I think so. Try taking a pic of something with writing on it with both cams.

Is slow motion recording enabled?
Enviado desde mi XT1032

To me, the focus seems to work better and also the pics look more natural, with a little less processing / saturation that the stock moto cam. Low light shots still look crappy, but I think that's more of a hardware limitation.

I've done it with ES File Explorer, no problems at all. Thanks for the apps
For those who are having issues with ES File Explorer you must MOUNT R/W to make changes in "/system"

If any of you have problems with the editor of pictures inside the gallery and problems with the panoramic photos, specifically FCs.
Download the zip file containing the libraries necessary to avoid these problems.
Download fix-galleryeditor.zip
Remove the lib folder and copy it to SDcard
Copy the files to / system / lib with RootExplorer or EsExplorer
* If you are instructed to replace some files will accept the option.
Finally give permissions RW - R - R
Restart their Moto entering G Galeria, edit photography and editor will be working properly.

Yes :good:

@lowrider262 & @tazlooney89
Thank you both.
I made flashable zip for this (apps & lib files) for easy installation.
If you have problem with this, i delete them...
To all
Chose your zip.
AOSP_Cam_and_gallery_delete_Moto_Cam.zip -> original Moto Camera & Gallery app will be deleted
or
AOSP_Cam_and_gallery_leave_Moto_Cam.zip -> original Moto Camera & Gallery app will NOT be deleted, and you will have two Camera and two Gallery apps
Copy zip dile to your device, flash it via CMW, TWRP or flashify
If someone used AOSP_Cam_and_gallery_delete_Moto_Cam.zip and want to have back MOTO Camera and Gallery, then flash this MOTO_Cam_and_gallery_delete_AOSP.zip. This will add back Moto Cam & Gallery apk with odex files, and will delete AOSP apk's.

WETA is a rom for Music geeks like me, though because we are still waiting on TWRP to become available i'd thought i'd make these MODs to flash in the meantime.​
How to install...
This method is redundant from V2.0 forward
1. Make sure you are on Stock firmware and have rooted device
2. Download mod zip
3. Install this app "Root Browser"
4. Extract the zip (click and hold, select extract) using Root Browser directly into Download folder. (you should have /sdcard/Download/(zip name) as folder with files in it)
5. Go into Download/(zip name) folder and select script for desired Emoji.
6. Tick "Execute script as root"
7. Then select the Execute button
8. It will say "Executing script"
9. Once complete you should have a popup box with no errrors.
10. Device will reboot automatically

I don't get it. What does this mod do? I did Everything but nothing changed and it didn't Reboot Automaticly.

Thanks for this, the iOS10 emojis work great. Can we only have one set installed at a time or is it possible to install multiple emoji packs?

Looking at the script and files, it looks to be the same font name, so no. It would take some trickery to have multiple emoji sets available on the same system.

Thanks, now I'm trying to find some pics showing the emojis from each pack.

No way! Thank You been looking for this everywhere.
EDIT: Any chance we can get iOS9 Emojis as well?

can we get a screenshot of what they each look like.?

I could but I'm not going to haha
Here though. Look through this

Edit

Is there a return to stock script for the emojis?

I tried running your script and it did not work. Well, it appeared to have worked, rebooted, but all the emoji's are the same (not iOS 10).
I'm contemplating on manually doing it, as I've replaced system files in the past.
Edit: Just moved the file manually and changed the permissions to RW-R-R and it worked like a charm. I don't think your script is moving the file correctly ?
Anyways, thanks for the font packs!

You didn't follow the steps is all. You probably didn't use the app stated in op, or you didn't have the zip in your Download folder

I did both of these things, but okay.
I re-read your instructions and it appears that you're assuming there will be a folder with the name of the zip file under Downloads with the scripts in it. I extracted the zip contents into downloads and it put the scripts in downloads, and the sys folder in there as well. Perhaps this is where the confusion is? I see your script has the following path: /sdcard/Download/WETA_Pixel_emoji/sys/ios10/fonts/, where the bolded folder is the difference. When I extract your zip to the Downloads folder, it doesn't create this folder automatically (perhaps your version of Root Browser is set to do this).
I'm sure this will help anyone in a similar situation.

Root browser is not root explorer. Root browser extracts to a folder of the same name as the zip. This is why I link the app also. All I'm trying to do is make it as simple as possible for people who don't even know what a script is. If root browser is not extracting to that named folder then I'm sorry I got it wrong. I don't want people misled by any of this. Please confirm what root app you are using

Use root browser peoples just like the OP stated.

Is this just http://forum.xda-developers.com/general/general/mod-ios10-profession-emojis-t3487038 but in an "installable" version? If so, would be good to credit the source.
