[Q] where do I get Icons from? - XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps

hey guys!
I have one simple question.
Where are you downloading all the icons for your modded themes?
I want to change some .png´s in the framework-res.apk with Ninjamorph, but i don´t know where I can get the icons from.
hoping for soon answers.
regards DAuL

I get mine from various theme files.

Also try http://iconspedia.com/ and, my personal favorite, http://dryicons.com/free-icons/.
Basically, all you need is icons in png format and you're ready to go!

But the size isn't important, or? Can I take every icon I want or do i have to take care on something special?

They might need resizing to the same dimensions as whatever you're replacing.

also try http://www.iconfinder.com/

And how can I resize those png's?
If possible, I want to do it with my device and not with pc.

Sorry for bothering you. How did you root your phone? I'm running the ***20, not 24 or 26. I'm not a computer geek or wizard.
Please do explain, thanks!

Its got to be an XML in layout of the frameworks.apk
im right with you man. i even pm'd a few theme creators who make them on other devices but have the clear background. one response was that it was default for his device to use whatever background you currently have.
im on an eris with the same problem ha
THANKS!!!!!!!!
Can I just remove the file if I find it and use SDK to push it back? or do I need to use Metamorph? havent really done this before

Just to let you know, its clear by default in an AOSP ROM. So, you might want to take a look at com.htc.resources first..

Theme or app to change background of drawer?

Is there any theme or app out there that can change the background color of the drawer or even make it transparent?
Sent from my X10a using XDA App
If you use adw launcher you can have any color, or transparency.
Sent from my rooted X10a using Tapatalk
If you use the stock launcher you can edit the framework to change it or you can find a theme or you can use ninjamorph if you have a copy of the image you want to replace it with.
Hope this helps.
When I used Ninjamorph and replaced some png's in framework-res.apk my device didn't boot anymore. What could be the problem?

@daul
Which pngs did you replace?
It could be that the pngs are of different sizes to the original ones?
Sent from my rooted 026 X10i using swype via Xda
its stuff like that, that makes me not wanna do any editing of those files. Will try the ADW Launcher
@ gavriel18 How easy is it to edit those files?
Its not too bad.. This my first attempt so I believe anyone can do it!!
Sent from my rooted 026 X10i using swype via Xda
Afaik the pngs get resized automatically. I was getting at the possibility that u tried editing a 9.png. they have data built in so u can't use ninjamorph. Imho ninjamorph is easy to use. Just read the instructions first.
Btw I have no prior graphic design or programming experience. That's how easy it is.

Gps and bluetooth icon for the status bar.
but these are no 9.pngs.
Every time after I have to confirm finishing my project in Ninjamorph, there comes a little screen: please wait. I think this is because it wants to reboot. But after a few second it gets stuck and I have to remove the battery because my device isn´t able to do anything.
I hope you understand what the problem is..

Sorry I couldn't make a bg for u zyexx last night, I picked up halo reach last night. :-D

If you want go make your own then just pull the pngs from your framework, use photo shop to size them and make them the same size, then convert them back to pngs and reinsert to framework or put on your sd and use ninjamorph to swap them out.

Yeah no problem color all to dark-grey then, for the Widets most of the Backgrounds have the highest filesize and some are named container.png but its easier to just change all i think, like you said.

[Theme Chooser] TruBlue Inverted for Carbon 1.1

Here is a port of my inverted blue theme for Carbon 1.0. It is pretty simple but I think looks good. Try it out and let me know what can be changed or made better. As always with any theme chooser apk flash back to your original system then flash mine and do not worry about any error messages just hit apply anyway and then reboot for the full affect!
https://dl.dropbox.com/u/9663029/TruBlue_Inverted.apk
****If you decide to flash the Apps Pack then please make a nandroid back up beforehand and flash in CWM as it will break any current themed apks***** If you flash and your apps like Gmail and Email etc are not blue inverted themed then delete the apks out of system/app then flash again! Again Make a back up before you do anything!
https://dl.dropbox.com/u/9663029/Carbon 1.1 TruBlue Apps Pack.zip
*****Enjoy and hit the thanks button if you like. Feel free to buy me a beer using the donate button if you like or use my theme and appreciate the work. PM me if you have any problems or suggestions*****

Oh thank you. I didn't know that! It said something about not having all the assets, so I figured it wasn't going to work.
If it gives you an error that you can just hit apply anyway then switch back to the stock theme reboot then after it reboots hit my theme,,all should be good, let me know.

just wondering how you got your soft keys blue. did you swap out the images or color the png's in framework/res/drawable/xhdpi? trying to figure out some stuff myself, but i just want to be sure i'm in the right place.
In older mods I swapped out the image just have to make sure the size matches,,,with this apk I just used GIMP to change the color of the existing png's in the drawable-xhdpi, hope that helps!

yeah, definitely helps. i;m a noob with gimp and paint.net, plus i have the artistic ability of a 3 year old. but i should be able to pull off something...
Can you share the hex code you're using with us, please.
The only thing I dont like about GIMP is you have to use a third party app to do batch processes

i'm not a huge fan of gimp either. but i'm new to this stuff and i try to use the easiest tools available. the xml mods give me nightmares. i've only had a computer for 8 months now, i'm just learning all this stuff. lol. i think i would get a better grasp of everything if i had someone actually show me. reading up on it and watching vids only do so much.
Damn for someone who only had a computer for 8 months you seem pretty proficient to me lol
