Hey all...new to this whole custom ROM business...just a quick question in regards to changing texts on lockscreen.
I have flashed Jedi Invasion rom and I noticed on the lock screen that it has text thats says "Jedi invasion" how would I go about removing or changing that. And also when you pull down the notification drawer there is text at the bottom that has "deviant" how does one go about changing the text in the notification drawer?
Appreciate the help, apologize for the noob question

From everything I could find it seems the Dev decided to brand his/her ROM. only way to change it is in the code itself.
I could very well be wrong but I don't see anything about it anywhere. Best suggestion is to PM the Dev if they accept PMs for support. Sorry man.

Thanks for replying RPelham....so there's no file in systemUI that can be opened where the text is located and can be modified?

I been lookin into skinnin the dialer in my ROM. I'm wanting to go black but am unable to find all the necessary files I need to edit.
Anyone know all the files needing to be edited?
All the images for the dialer are in Contacts.apk. Careful though, most are the tricky .9.png types. Finally for anything fancy like transparent background for the dialer as a whole, you'll need to decompile and modify xml, I believe.
FYI- Images and functions for in-call screens are in Phone.apk.

i dont have a contacts.apk... just a htccontact which dont contain any dialer images or I'm completely missing something
Sorry I was describing for a vanilla setup. No idea what apk serves up the dialer in Sense.

What rom are you using? I have a custom HtcDialer.apk that I modded to have white text and I have a metamorph to change the images in the resources as well. I'd be happy to share - the dialer is from Virtuous 3.1.
The only thing I haven't figure out is how to change the text when you're in a call. For some reason, when in a call, the dialer text turns back to black. I'm still trying to figure it out. If anyone happens to know what has to be changed to make the text white in a call, PM me!

That thread is very helpful. I haven't ventured into changing the font yet, I just wanted to change the numbers to white and add a new button background which wasn't too bad.

If you were able to get it to work I'd like a black one with white numbers if you could post it.I'm using sky raider by the way.
Attached are the 2 files you requested. They are from the 3.26.605.1 leak, incase specifics are needed. Also, I will be sure to give you the credit when they make it into one of my ROM updates.
Thanks again OSully... most appreciated!!
There are a couple things that I want to do but I can't seem to figure out, and I've searched the 1200+ pages in the Shooter ROM thread, and there's nothing about a how-to guide. Is there even something like this written for ROMs normally, or are we just kind of left to our own devices, as it were?
Thanks.

I don't have 10 posts yet. Most of the time, I get completely lost trying to find my own answers on here, and I usually end up giving up at some point.
I don't really need a how-to on ROMs in general, but every ROM, and every UI is different. Like, how do I change the icons on my lock screen on my Shooter 5.5 build ROM? Questions like that, how do I do this or that, not really a question of how do I install it, how do I wipe my cache, that I usually just follow the instructions for the ROM, but after the ROM is installed. Some ROMs have more settings/tweaks/features, and some have less.
Do you know what I mean?
Some of the themes might do it for you..

I need help with:
How do I change the 4 icons on the HTC lock screen?
Can I change where it says "Team-Nocturnal" at the top of my screen to something else?
Can I change the stupid ring unlock to a left-to-right slide, while keeping the animated sense htc weather background?
That's about it, thanks again if you know how to change any of this stuff.

4 icons- Click personalize, then choose the lockscreen you currently have, it should say apply and settings under it. Click settings and ir should have the 4 little icons and you can click one and re assign it with a different app.
Change lockscreen ring- go to settings>tweaks>miscellaneous and then find lockscreen style. It should have the one you're looking for.
As for the team nocturnal thing,, can't help ya there. Im sure MBQ can tho

Thanks, although it's annoying to have to reboot to change my lockscreen style. And it appears that the lockscreen style is tied to the weather animation as the "HTC Sense" style. I really like how fast the "android" one is with it's side slider, but there's no weather animation. These things are never 100% what I want, and it's really annoying.
Whenever I click personalize, it just goes back to the home screen. I've read that this is a ROM issue, but I've done 3 roms so far, warmtwopointtwo, shooter, and cm7, and all 3 of them have this behavior, is there an app I can get, or is there some tweak I need to do to get that to work?
im looking to change the default icons of phone, contacts, messaging, internet, and camera. but im having a hell of time locating the icons i need to change to make them appear. if some1 could give me the names and locations to make it easier that would be great. i dont know if its rom specific or not but JK-3.5

Use some kind of apk manager or 7zip to edit the file. Go to mipmap-hdpi and replace/change the icon in their. There can sometimes be multiple icons in that folder. Also, some apps have the icon in drwable-hdpi called icon.PNG or ic_launcher_(name of app)

I've been trying to figure this out myself. I want a based 4.0.4 stock rom with the skyrocket icons. and The 4G icon as well. But when I changed the framework-apk it doesnt work. I dont know if im doing it right or not but would be nice if some one could make a flashable zip with these icons for all of the stock 4.0.4 based roms

tried this, definitely not working. it works for other apks like ones you download, but for the ones im looking for it does not change the icon... im guess the file i need to replace is hiding somewhere... but where is what i would like to know. Of course there could be, im editing the wrong icon.. i would think to change the phone icon i would edit phone.apk but maybe that my mistake thinking i know what i'm doing...

asked somebody, who's been a big help to me. told me that if you want to change the phone icon, it not in phone.apk thanks for that! Its actually in the contacts.apk image that...
For lock screen and notification pulldown BTW not from settings, either an app or a system file mod
Wrong Section buddy, should be in questions not under themes and apps. But since i'm not like the other jerks out there, i can help you just pm me. I can give you instructions or i can mod the files for you to whatever you would like.
not really the answer to your question but you could try AOKP ROM. it has option to change carrier label in settings

I lost my S Pen. Not a huge issue since I rarely used it. But the icon is very annoying.
There are plenty of Xposed mods for other icons (battery icon, battery full notification, smart stay, etc). Would someone be able to create one for the S Pen Removed icon too (recommended shortcuts removed would be icing on the cake)?
Thanks in advance to anyone who can help me out.

Thanks. I was on an AOSP when I first lost it, so didn't even think about it. Decided to come back to TW and noticed it. Far from a deal breaker.
Just figured I'd throw it out there in case it was easy for someone, or maybe if one of the existing xposed mod devs were interested in including it.

I can confirm this removed the icon. However I was unable to find Page Buddy in settings. I went to app manager and disabled the page buddy notification.
