[Q] Express999 rom - change settings background - Samsung Galaxy W I8150

Hi, I installed ipromeh's Express999 rom in my phone, which has a transparent background both in system settings and play store. When I change the background of my main window, the play store shows it on the background, but system settings still shows the original one. Do you know if there is a way to change it in system settings as well?
I'm new here and this is my first post, I didn't know how to contact ipromeh directly. Is there a way to do it?
Anyway, thanks in advance!

I'm here for you
Replace a 480x800 pixel and name it background_holo_dark.png to /system/framework/framework-res.apk/res/drawable-nodpi. Remember use "store" compression.
U can directly send PM to me. But it should be okay to just replace the image.

How? Extracting then replacing the icons? The question is that I changed the icons they are there but no changes, only in recent apps.

there are many techniques to install icons
1. If you want to install icons then download the icon pack by abhirockz and replace the icons in it with the ones you want
2. There is a software named as "apk edit" which allows you to change the name and icon of the desired apk.
Any more probs? PM me

Am i missing something?
-SemcPhone i opened the drawable-hdpi folder and i looked for the .png file with the current icon, but i didnt find any. Like if the png icon file doesnt exist. Which one should i change?

Change app icons

Hey guys!
I am trying to figure our how I can replace the existent app icon in insertcoin 15.0.1 with ones I downloaded as a zip file. So I got jpegs with new icons I want to use. The icons should completely replace the old ones, not only make a new shortcut with i.e. desktop visualizer. Sorry for making a new thread for that. Don't know where to post it else.
Greetings,

I think that this thread is more suitable for the Q & A section. And I have no idea how to replace icons other than installing some launcher that supports that option.

in order to change icons, you would have to swap the icons out in the apk that contains the icon you want to change(make sure you make the new icon the same size as the old one) then you will also have to change the icons for the app in also the in system/apps(systemui.apk) , in system/framework (com.htcresourses.apk) and (framework-res.apk) hope the helps
Try this app

Font Questions

Hey guys.
This may be a stupid question but I've been trying to search online for solution but just cant fix it.
When I want to change system fonts, I just go to settings/display/font style on my Note 2. And there are hundreds of fonts I can see from the selections. But when I am doing some custom widgets using UCCW or Zooper Widget, I dont see all the fonts that I usually see in settings/display.
Some apps require fonts to be saved in /systems/fonts and some in sdcard/fonts so I just saved my font folder on both path.
How can I make the apps (UCCW or Zooper) to be able to find and use the same fonts I can usually see from the Settings of the phone? Thanks.
No one?
Id say ask the developers of those apps to help u out with that one.

I think I messed up the question.
I have a lot of fonts in the settings, display option of the phone like example tahoma, Arial, etc but they are not in the fonts folder.
Most of the fonts in the fonts folder are from roboto, droid and Samsung series. In what folders are those other fonts located?
I can put fonts on those apps if I download the font I want one by one and save them to fonts folder so I think the app isn't the problem. But since I have other fonts i want from the phone settings, I wonder where I can just get the ttf files inside the phone itself.

[Themed App] Mms.apk 4.3- V2 Dark and Holo Blue & V3 Bubbles w/no Avatar

This is a stock AOKP 4.3 messaging app themed. The original version with gray panels has been discontinued. Version two has clear conversation list panels that expose the stock gradient background themed with Holo Blue. Version three adds outline bubbles that match the text color and has the avatars removed. They include Emoji, quick reply, breathing sms notification, strip unicode, enter for a new line, and custom user agent. No popup with the quick reply, quick reply is accessible thru the notification dropdown. HO versions have alternate Hangouts smileys in place of the stock droid ones. These are only tested on my Nexus 4 that is running 4.3 stock deodexed JWR66Y build. If you have success with a different rom, please post it. Don't forget to hit the thanks button if you like.
Disclaimer- As always, do a nandroid backup before flashing/installing. I take no responsibility for any issues. Flash at your own risk.
Updates
8/12 - Initial release - version 1
8/13 - Icon change, avatar placeholder change, attachment png fix, fixed gray on gray text with searching contacts when composing new message, fixed black on dark gray text when deleting conversation
8/14 - Themed smileys to holo blue, fixed black on black text when adding subject, increased max message size, changed phone number text to white when searching contacts, slightly darkened unread panel and changed date to white in conversation list for better visual appearance
8/15 - Removed white frame around mms in conversation panel, darkened active send button.
8/16 - Changed sender name/number in the quick reply box to holo blue.
9/06 - Themed widget added
9/11 - Version 2 added. Changed to clear conversation list panels that show the dark holo gradient background, a nicer visual appearance for those that like darker. Update only if you want both the conversation list and message list showing the gradient background.
9/17 - Version 1 discontinued. Version 2 updated - Changed received text color to pure white within quick reply for better visibility. Changed icons to white within dropdown when choosing attachment type. Removed the return to sleep when replying from lockscreen option in the settings menu since it is non functional with the JWR build. New and better screenshots added. Updating is recommended for anyone using this.
9/18 - Fix added for background of group participants list when receiving a group message. Picture frame added for pics received and sent within the messages panel. Theming is complete and this will be final unless someone spots a needed fix and brings it to my attention.
9/24 - Minor update. Fixed bad code by default for the Heart smiley that did not allow it to display properly when sending and receiving <3. Also took the opportunity to theme the pressed color around the recently added picture frame for a better match.
10/5 - Minor update to V2 - finalized. Lock indicator for messages changed to white for better visibility. V3 added. This is a bubble version, based off of V2, which provides matching outline bubbles and has the avatars removed.
10/9 - Fix for V3. Removed the bubble showing when viewing the group participants list for messages that are group messages.
10/14 - Minor fix for V3. Heart smiley fix added to V3.
10/26 - V2 & V3 apks with alternate Hangouts smileys uploaded. Note, these are only alternate smileys in place of the stock droid ones, not the entire set of emojis. See screenshots.
Installation
1) Flash the zip file in recovery or
2) Extract and push the Mms apk to system/app (remove and backup your current Mms.apk). Set permissions if needed.
* If using a odexed rom, you need to rename/remove the mms odex file.
Thanks to rustyjay for the apk.
Thanks to UBER for his tutorial and his bubble pngs.
Thanks a lot, it's a nice start! However, I noticed that the background in conversations looks like the dialer's and, in my opinion, that's how the main window background should look like. That grey doesn't look so good, in my opinion. Of course, I would have preferred a black background for everything, even for the top/bottom panels but it's a Holo Grey so I respect your decision
Personally I like it. Nice change, keep up the good work.

I still want to do some changes with the top and bottom panels. They are untouched at this point. I'm liking the top panel black and thinking the bottom would look good black also. I'm working on trying to get transparency in the list screen, but otherwise I may change the shade of gray to match the panels better. Most of the theming I have done is the easier stuff. I did it all yesterday and today. Progress will be at a slower pace now.

Did you make a backup copy of your previous MMS apk, as instructed in the op? I'm not sure what is stock for you, as I don't know what rom you are running. If you didn't make a backup copy, you could always pull a copy from the rom zip and push it to system or make a flashable zip.

I'm rooted stock 4.3 also. The apk or the zip should work for you. How did you install? I rechecked the files. What I uploaded is good.

I downloaded the zip and checked the md5 file checksum against the original and it matched. This is it: c6a887bd7722762aecf04cc3eeb30f15. Either you got a bad download or something went wrong with the install. Is your rom deodexed?

You need to rename its corresponding .odex file and then reboot.

As suggested, the MMS odex file is your problem. Rename it or delete it (keep a copy) and reboot.
