Using cygwin and dsixda's kitchen, I imported dazednconfused's team venum "wicked sensations" rom. I'm looking for the wallpapers. I've searched for .png, .jpg, .jpeg in the Working ROM folder and drilled down into nearly all the folders with no luck
FYI in case it matters, when I was importing, it said there was an "updater.zip" file but not an "update.zip" file; and it gave me a warning about compatibilities between Amend vs. Edify and I chose the default option for it to try to convert.
Any help in locating them? Thanks in advance
Wallpapers are stored in the individual apks...you're gonna need apktool to extract the resources and you'll find them there
Mainly.the twlauncher.apk and I think theres also a wallpaper chooser app in there

me too sorry newbie
please someone give a hint..
interrested too but don't abble to opne files... try to rename the .img in .zip but doesn't work...
Please help
I believe the file at the link given above has the "system image" files. You guys are just trying to make a theme so I am guessing you want the "picture" images only right? It would be easier to just extract a rom from the dream android development area and extract the apk files and wallpapers from it.
Here is a link to a thread that contains a dump of the system folder from T-Mobile UK 1.76.110.6 Hero rom
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=542218
The icons, artwork, and such are located within the apk files which are basically renamed zip files. Good luck.
right, i was looking for picture files - and now i've got them. thanks!
Hey guys im not a developer but i am a freelance Graphic Designer just a little curious about developing making an app cutom for myself.. I have eclips installed and the Android SDK but it wont open any .apk so i can view the file and edit it. Can anyomne help me with this or point me in the right direction?
.apk is the same format as .zip. just open in 7zip (pc) or betterzip (mac). in the folder called res, there are a bunch of subfolders. edit any of the .png files in any folder that has something to do with drawable. if you edit a .9.png, make sure to redraw the patch.
Alright...when I was running my hero, I learned an extreme amount of developing. Since the hero was HTC, a lot of what I've learned seems to be relevant to the DINC. Now the programs I used was from a posting made by papa smurf called everything Android. Some of the programs don't work and are now are outdated. So my question is, if any dev has the time, could you share what programs(or even a posts to a thread you know of) you use for things such as :
xml to text and xml editing
creating flashable zips and signing
Everything else I already got programs and know how to do. I would really appreciate it.
Apktook and dsixda kitchen. These are two great tools at our desposle. Apktool can be used to decompile an APK. The decompiled APK can have the XML decompiled into readable format witjlh it. Dsixda kitchen can split boot images, repackage zips, unpack system.img. just check em out.

Hi
I love this recovery and I'd like to create some themes. Does a "how-to" guide already exist or can someone tell me how to create this?
I extracted the ui.zip of a TWRP Theme. I had a images folder with png, a fonts folder with .dat files and a ui.xml file.
Concerning png files I just have to modify them via Photoshop for example (same size of course) but what about .dat files and ui.xml?
Thank you.
Hi,
I am trying to create a theme for Note 2 with Note 3 mods. I am currently using DN3 v3 rom.
These are my questions :
1. I would like to know where installed apps from play store keeps there icons "I want to change them"
2. Where are all the stock apps "pre installed apps" located ?
3. Do i need to do any xml programming when replacing the app icons ?
Please tell me the path to those locations if you know it :fingers-crossed:
Each app is an apk file, and it contains icon(s). So there is no central place where all icons are stored.
the best you can do is to create an iconpack theme. just download one (it is apk file as well) and see how it's done. apk's are just signed-zip files, so you can open them (unzip) with any app like winzip or total commander (it is harder putting it back together). There are a lot of iconpacks available, just google it.
