hi every one,
As we already know, the battery signal of statusbar on Sammy KitKat Firmware is not images but coded one.
That is one of Google's operations in Android 4.4, but make difficulties with theming or customising...
please some developer consider to change systemui of our device for custom roms and make it png based battery icons.as you can see here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2628560job has be done for other devices too.
any ideas?what you guys think?
search the moto g theme section i already posted image battery for moto g.
EDIT:- i don't promote my work in any thread but i am trying to help hare. visit this link.http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g/themes-apps/4-4-4-t2814434

Are battery mods (for the status bar) interchangeable between roms?
Not usually, differences if framework mods between ROMs means that flashing an incompatible battery icon mod can break features and cause bootloops.

In general the answer is no. The images are but not the actual framework since each dev has different mods in the framework.
If you took the framework-res.apk from one ROM and put it in another ROM based on the same framework it may work but other mods and themes might break. Definitely can't do it between say a stock ROM to a Desire or Evo based ROM. Will more than likely boot loop.
Ok. That makes sense. I have found some themes that change the status bar to blue icons and such
If you like a certain battery icon just ask the dev of the ROM your on if they will create a flashable zip for you. If you provide the icons they most likely will.
Hey guys ,why does no KitKat Rom theme it the right way? i use CM based themes everything changes except for the Battery Icon remains the same it just wont change anyone else havin this problem !? (btw. i tried many KitKat based Roms had the same issue over and over again)
i also have this problem, i think it wont change because of the custom battery icon. but i like to know why is it happening to me too.

Apparently you CAN'T THEME battery icon on Android version 4.4. Sorry, I can't explain all the developmental details.
simple explanation (ill try to explain)
In 4.4.2 roms battery icon is now build in .jar (its wroted in some kind of code inside .jar file) so that means there is no more .png images for battery and theme can not change it

Hello friends !
i would like to know witch method do u use to change the position of statusbar elements, such as cell and wifi signal to the left (in that order would be great), and clock to the center. i mean, witch xposed framework module, on stock 10.5.A.0.230
My previous phone was a Moto RAZR HD, and when i was on CM11 there's a module that it's exactly what i'm looking for, but it's for AOSP based roms. I don't want to try it because is obvious that the code from sony's systemui.apk stock roms and systemui.apk aosp roms are very different.
(This one:http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/modules/mod-ios7-x-flat-style-module-t2666827[any one have tried it already on sony stock?])
I notice that there's a "manual" method , decompiling (dunno if that word actually exists, but hope you can understand the concept) systemui.apk, change a few lines lines of it's code, and then compile it again. But that method it's on xda since gingerbread. (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1174202)
My configuration is 4.4.2 stock, rooted, with xposed framework 2.6.1, As you can imagine, my BL is locked with simlock (waiting for my carrier's answer )
Feel free to post o ask whenever you want.
Thanks in advance, and sorry the poor english. Hope you understand.
Hello, I'm not a dev but I can say I'm a good modder, I'm also interested in graphic design e photography and I was thinking about start to build some LG G3 themes, I'm in love with the flat style so probably my work will be oriented in that way, in line with the G3 style.
Is there a easy way to start? I mean I've builded some lockring for the candyshop mod for N5 but it was just a work of overwriting (create a new image with the same dimension and the same name of one in the zip file and overwrite on the original one) is that easy also here?
if yes probably I'll start right now... just I want to know how to start
Thank you so much
I just recently switched my stock rom to be deodexed and I'm now looking at the possibility of theming and mods for my rom.
I already have a little experience modding the signal icons on a different Android device, and I've already downloaded a mod from this forum that turns part of the stock dialer to a holo dark/material theme, but I want to do more with it.
So far I can't seem to find a good tutorial on how to properly mod system files, especially knowing that the stock rom on the Moto G is a Motorola variant of Android KitKat, and not AOSP or similar, although it's close enough that I figure some mods might work since many Xposed modules for AOSP work fine on my stock rom.
Would it be safe to look for a tutorial based on AOSP 4.4.4, or does anyone know a good place to learn the proper way to modify and theme a Motorola stock rom?

get apktool
with this decompile your apks you want to theme/mod
hapy theming! (there plenty of tutorials of how to edit images or the .9 patch files. with gimp etc.. just search )
after that recompile, if you just have edited some images (ressources) pull them afterwards from the new COMPILED apk out in a folder.
take the original apk & open with 7zip & pull the edited stuff into the right directions.
if you have done some advanced modification such as in values folder, you need after the new apk is compiled, open it with 7zip & pull from the original app the meta-inf folder into the new compiled one (singing) after tthat replace it on that phone
