Here's a zip with the widgets. You'll have to hit up the Nexus 4 forum for the link to the system folder so you can get the xmls and java zipped folders for these to work properly.
Here's the link to the forum with all the info

Here is a collection of fonts from pauldiddy. OP is here.
I've also included Black Chancery Font - took me quite a while to find this in an installable apk file. The collection from pauldiddy are all apk's as well. Just extract onto your device in a folder, or email the ones you want to yourself from your pc and then install from GMail. I've only attached the Black Chancery apk to this post - for the collection, go to pauldiddy's thread.
Just a side-note here. That flipfont thread I linked in the OP also has a great tutorial in the 2nd post, that will guide you through making your own font apks from otf or ttf fonts. there are also many many many fonts throughout the thread that may not be on the collection in the first post - take some time to go through it and see if there are any others you like. You can also put in requests for fonts if you dont see what you like. Just attach the otf or ttf file to your request post and then be patient as pauldiddy is also taking classes and is often busy with his studies.
Hi everyone,
does anyone knows why the weather icons extracted from htc framework.apk or weather widget.apk looks as they are damaged (as you can see in attached jpg there is a strange background instead of a empty background) ?
does exist some specific application to view them properly?
thanks
From which file and which directory did you get them ? and how did you extracted them ?
just opened /system/framework/com.htc.resources.apk then /res/drawable-xhpdi
i also tried apktool to decompile apk but same result
well you are on the right path. you need to decompile them properly. i use Virtual Ten Studio, works perfectly :good:
edit : you can't decompile the com.htc.recources.apk and that weather picture is not in the com.htc.recourses.apk anyway........
the com.htc.resources.apk can be unpacked with 7zip, then edit the files in the xhdpi folder. when done you open the com.htc.resources.apk and drag the edited xhdpi folder back in to the file.
the weatherwidget that actually has that picture needs to be decompiled.

thanks for you support but i can't get Virtual ten studio anywhere
only "virtuous ten studio" appears in google search
sorry my mistake....thats the one. autocorrectfail
maybe i miss some step. if I decompile com.htc.resources.apk or /system/app/weatherwidget.apk i always get "corrupted" weather jpg inside xhdpi folder. how can I see that icons without that strange background?. i need to modify them but first i need to open/see them properly
thanks again for your support
You cant decompile the resources.apk you must unzip it and modify the PNG files and place them back in the .apk
For the others it should work, maybe you should setup the proper framework. Check the VTS site. All sorts of tutorials there
I'm trying to use my own custom weather icons in zooper and as Marco said in the description of his zooper tutorial I put the .zip file of the icons in the "/sdcard/iconsets/" folder but when i try to change the iconset in the bitmap layout editing it doesn't show my custom weather icons.
Thanks in advance, any help is welcome.

If you upload your zip I can check it for any errors that might prevent it from showing up. Most times it's a simple problem with the XML or something similar
Here it is

Your zip is not set-up to work with Zooper. It's missing the vital XML file. Check out this tutorial on zooper.org on how to make icon sets work with Zooper. There is also a example zip so you can see how it should look to work with Zooper.
If you can't figure out how to make the XML work, I might be able to convert the icon set for Zooper over the weekend. But I can't promise anything.
Thanks

Can anyone w/ uccw knowledge help w/ zooper icons?
i have dozens of Uccw zips that i renamed to work w/ uccw. They where old Blackberry Berryweather zips and with uccw all you do is rename and it works. Uccw pulls the condition. I understand that Zooper needs the vital xml file but is that all. If a condition is named "thunderstorms.png" in a zip (for uccw) does it need to be different in zooper or does the xml file do the "work"? i have looking at the zooper.org info and the example file was emty or didnt download correctly or something. Really hope someone will see this that can help. thx!

Yes the config.xml file holds the coding so the actual file names for the graphics files can be anything as long as they are the same as what you have in the code. If you need help ... attach the zip and I'll see if I can get it to work.
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.

copy files
you have to copy the font files from one phone to the other. your fonds are located in the zooper folder on your phone, inside the zooper folder there is a folder called fonts, look there.
