Hi,
i have installed the B330 for PLK-L01. It came with new icons (imgur. com/453jDMn - I am not allowed to post outside link, co please erase the space before .com), which i really like. Unfortunately I dont know where to find these icons for if i want to change the theme. For example the icons changed after I installed deodexed yoda rom. So now I cant change the theme if i want to keep these icons
Is it possible to download this iconpack somewhere?
I use apex launcher and i didnt download any specific theme or iconpack. These icons were simply there after i installed B330. I think that they were there even before installing apex, so it shouldnt have any connection to this launcher.
Thanks in advance.
I think they are not the default icons, you should check it again by installing Apex, so that we can confirm.
Other than that the background boxed icons file is situated at /system/themes/.
Hope this helps you.

ok i know i'm about to be lambasted but i thought i'd try asking anyway, how does one remove the coloured status icons from a particular rom w/o editing the rom & reflashing?
Also how to change the icons back to stock icons?
Any help would be appreciated
I don't think it can be done without editing the ROM. The only way I know to change the icons is to extract the rom and use pe explorer, multiextractor, etc to do it. But then again, what icons do you want to change? It's not hard to unpack, swap, repack & flash. If I can do it, anyone can. Look here.
oh ok i'm interested in changing the status icons at the top menu bar and the system icons which have been changed in a custom rom i downloaded i prefer the stock wm icons.

I think they're in the shellres.96.dll. You may look over in the Hacking & Development section. I remember seeing something in there when I was researching a way to change my start icon.
fyi

My roms have this in the battery meter file phcanOverbmp.dll if u need to change.
Thanks guys for the suggestions etc, i ended up w/ a solution that didn't involve me doing very much.
I'd made an spb backup of a previous roms settings, and when i restored that ontop of the rom i had newly installed, it changed the icons back to stock, so my problem in that regard is solved. but @ least i know now in the future what i'll have to do if i need to do it again.
Thank You
Hi I'm on a 2.1 Sense rom and I was just wondering how do I change the notif bar's battery and background?
I tried just changing the icons in the framework-res apk in the drawable-mdpi folder
then I just saved it and pushed it and replaced the original framework but that just put me on an endless repeat of booting so I came back to 2.1 sense so .. How do I change it ?
I'm trying to change it like A motoblur theme
If I can't do it no Sense UI please tell me how to get it working on either GB or froyo?
I'm on the new radio btw
cm6.1 well you can go into cyanogen setting under ui than extras there is some different ones to pick you can use a theme you can flash a custom one its all on you or your rom
i suggest a theme poke around the forums for one
you can find a metamorph theme for your phone. and you just apply the notification bar with metamorph app
So, I forgot to backup my system & framework apk's before I uploaded them into the kitchen and made a new theme. *I know, shame on me*.
Is there a default/stock for those or are they created based of individual phone information?
What i'm asking is, do I need to re-install the rom to get those back or can I just pull them from above said stock apk's?
Android: 2.3.5
Rom:Cm7(08012011)
Any help would be greatly apprecaited!!!

i'm confused. are you saying you dont like your theme and want to go back to stock or you want you want to update to the next nightly but dont want to do the kitchen every time?
I'm not reaaal familiar with the kitchen stuff, I know more than enough to get myself in trouble (changing radio's, roms, etc) but haven't completely grasped the themes yet.
It SEEMS like a couple of things are not changing even if I create a completely new theme (The battery icon, the lockscreen buttons and something else I forget)
My thinking is, there's a generic theme(s) for the rom and when you create a get a new one, it updates certain aspects of it.
If I create a new theme in kitchen and only change the battery, wouldn't all of the other settings revert to the "default" theme?
On a completely different note-
What's the difference between ADW themes and Themechoose themes?

Ah. ok. so what ever you change in the kitchen it will change in the apk. it wont touch the rest of the apk. its kinda like an online apktool. it unpackages it changes the png's you want and then packages it up again using the resources from the apk you submitted. ADW themes are for the ADW launcher so it only themes the home screens. but Themechooser themes the whole phone, or as much as the developer of themechooser allowed it to do.
Great! Thanks
I seriously loathe the uber-colorful icons that TouchWiz has for things like the Camera, Gallery, Dialer, etc.
What do I need to do to change them to stock JellyBean icons? Root? Theme? Alternative launcher?
Thanx in advance.
It's super easy to change icons using Nova, & you don't need root. I don't have experience with other launchers, or methods.
ROM - Odexed Blue JB "Holy Grail" LJ7
Baseband - LJ7
Kernel - KT747 TW JB LJ7
Sent from my Sprint Samsung Galaxy S3 using XDA-Premium
Idk if it's the same on the s3 but it is easier if rooted I believe. Drag your rom that your theming onto your computer, find system ui. Apk and extract just that, then open it with 7zip or something like that and then it's in one of the folders inside of the res folder. I think that's where the icons are stored. As long as you don't change the names, you'll be fine. Just replace them and restart your phone. Or re flash using the modified rom
Download a launcher of your choice. My first choice for pimping the UI is sslauncher. Then find an icon pack you want to use. For simple icons that you can choose the colour of I recommend MetroStation.
Icons are normally change in most launchers by first placing them on you home screen and then long pressing them and choosing edit.
Good luck
Check out "mycolorscreen" for inspiration.
Thanx to all 3 of you.
Do any of the methods above help with the notification icons also? I find it really odd that the text messaging notification icon is an envelope... you know, like email.
I want a 4x6 table icon layout. I do not want to use a launcher or custom rom. Can this be modified via the systemUI.apk using the apktool? Is there a 'tweak' which has already been released to accomplish this?
How do I manually modify icons (without launcher/rom). Specifically which folder would I look in and are there any problems with replacing the file?
Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
App icons are stored in the apk themselves. Custom launchers give you the ability to choose what icon to see, be it the default stored in the apk or one you select.
Check out cleanrom to see how the alternate layout grid factors were achieved.
