Hey I'm looking to try and port Samungs emojis over to this phone but I can't find the images unless they are all in a font file. I know on the S4 they were all in one folder. Could anyone chime in and elp me out?

ususally they're stored in framework-res.apk in system/framework, there's also a font, android-emoji.ttf in the system/fonts folder

Not in the framework but I did find the font files. Do you think replacing them with the samsung emoji font files will work?

i saw somewhere once on an Epic that the stock Samsung lock screen slider was a red circle and red arrow up with the lock in the middle. I can't seem to find the thread in order to do more research or get what i am looking for.
so does anyone know how i can get my slider icon to be red instead of the greyish black it is now?
Flash a theme, or if you only want the lockscreen then delete all the images except the lock.

The images you are looking for are found in the framework-res.apk file.
Specifically i think you might be looking for /res/drawable-hdpi/
zz_unlock_arrow.png
zz_unlock_arrow_msg.png
maybe even
zz_unlock_lockbg.png
zz_unlock_lockbg_press.png

using Root Explorer i can get to /res/....but there is not a folder for drawable-hdpi
anymore thoughts on places to check?
Nope, that's where it is for moi. Weird. Try unzipping the whole folder then look on /sdcard/extracted/ and see if it shows up there.
If not maybe post your framework-res.apk and twframework-res.apk here and i can take a look.
edit: Maybe mine's different since technically we don't have the stock TW Launcher. We have a slightly modified one on Bonsai.

Apk's are just archives. You can use your favorite archiving application to modify the APK ( i like WinRAR ). All I normally have to do is open the APK with WinRAR and take the modified PNG's (not .9.pngs - these have to be run through eclipse first) and drop em in to the folder you want. Boosh! Done.
I'm seeing the files right where we said they'd be. you still don't have 'em? /system/framework/framework-res.apk

Inside framework-red.apk is a folder called res. Inside that is drawable-hdpi, all the way at the bottom of that.

Its in framework res.apk too look for status bar background. There are two one is a bigger png which is for when you pull it down and that's a dummy file because on the epic its inside twframework-res but the other is a small box and a .9.png so if you don't know how to edit them borrow one from a working theme.

and how can I make from this file a live wallpaper?
Thanks!
It's in system/media , something like bootanimation.qmg (or similar, but it's a .qmg file).
And I don't know a thing about Live Wallpapers (exc. installing them), so can't help with that :/

She doesn't need the QMG file but she needs a bootanimation.zip with .png files for the original S2 bootanimation

I want to modify a theme chooser apk theme i use on here called JellyX. Im just wondering what files do you mod if iwant to change the images for the signal bars\wifi for when theres a connection to googles servers. On stock JB they use grey for no connection to google, and blue when there is a connection. This theme doesnt do that. Im guessing theres a set of images that it switches to inside the apk, and im trying to see if someone knows what they are so i can change them myself
Anyone?
Images named
stat_sys_signal_2_fully
stat_sys_wifi_signal_2_fully
in SystemUI.apk
number in bold can range from 0 to 4

JellyX is theme chooser so you should add:
com_android_systemui_
before signal/wifi png name before adding them
Thank you guys!
Do i have to edit those files in both folders below?
drawable-hdpi
drawable-xhdpi

give me the signal/wifi png's and i'll build it for you .. btw you can use FastStone if you want to rename png's
I can't find anything in the settings for changing the font and rom toolbox does nothing but send my phone into a boot loop... Anyone know how(can explain)?? I have a lot of font apk's from GB I'd like to use.
Go the hard way: fonts are stored under /system/fonts and you just have to replace them all you like with a root-enabled file explorer. If your fonts are in an APK pack, extract with WinRAR/WinZIP and look for .ttf files inside.

Rename to the system names (but there are many font files, do make sure which you want to replace!) and replace them. Don't forget to set permission to rw-r--r--. Then just reboot to see effect. If anything happens just flash the original ROM without wiping anything.

All of the fonts are individual apk files.. How do you extract the ttf files?

I mean, can't you open the apk's with WinRAR or WinZIP? (if necessary, change the file extension to .zip) Extract and seek .ttf files in it. I can't guarantee you will find it though, as I always directly fetch readily-available ttf files and never used these font APKs. Maybe that's different.
A bit offa topic: why change when system default (the Roboto font family) is beautiful enough?

Then you must be doing wrong, or you might haven't set correct permissions after replacing files.
Anyway, I'm free on summer vacation, so you can send me the fonts you want to use (font name or file, both are okay, BUT it has to be a font family with at least bold, italic and bold+italic variants!), and I'll see if I can pack up a flashable zip for you.

I see now what I was doing wrong. The font I was trying to use wasn't bold and I was trying to load it into a bold file in the system folder. Thank you for the quick response.
I know this isn't apart of the tread but how would you go about packing fonts in a zip to flash?

Normally I have to base my flashable zip on an already existing one, then I just replace the fonts inside, slightly tweak the update-script, repack, re-sign and all done. Dunno how to go into details...

I dont know how to do what you say but try "ifont". You can download fonts and invert them to apk.
