You can literally change everything about the appearance of your phone. Any apk file can be opened and modified. If you download an app from the market, but you don't like the icon, you can open the apk and replace the icon.png You can also change the color of your menus etc. It is a complicated process and you'll have to learn how to work with apks, edit 9.png files, and even work with XML files and HEX colors. I actually gave up on themeing because it ended up taking up too much time...but if you're willing to jump in and get your elbows dirty you can change anything you want about your phone's appearance, and it actually is a really rewarding experience. To get started, just search the forum for a "guide to themeing".
You can also ask some of the themers for advice by sending them a private message. That's the best way to learn, if someone is willing to teach you.
Hope that helps.

Well I thing i got changing the icons down. an when i open the xml files in a hex editor theres too meny numbers, any simpler way to change colors by chance?
Im really surprised that kno one has been able to evelope an app that just gives a list of colors an icons an what not an u just click ok, if i was developer savy anuff id tottally have an app editor in the works
Just realized somthing, to change icons, wouldnt it be smarter to just open the apk in root explorer an over write the icon, insted of moving it to ur computer an possibly making it not install back on ur phone?
nah its a lot deeper than that, because after you open and edit an APK the .apk file must then be re-signed it's like it's digital signature... or it will not install on your phone... There are a few apps out that help a lot with the theming process.. and as for .xml files i think they are encrypted so you would have to use an xml decrypter and edit it then encrypt it again and add it back into the apk and resign the file... all these topics are covered in various parts of the forums though... here's a link with lots of information that can help you along your way...

xml files in android are not encrypted they are just compile form of xml. Its a space saver thing.
As for having a program to edit things in xml files on the fly its might be possible but since xml its soooo generic and there is really no way to make a program that would go through an xml file and change the things that represent colors and value etc... Something like this could be done for say a framework but then it would really be only for that framework or apk.
I copied the browser from system app to my sd an opened it with 7zip i didnt extract it i just moved the icon i wanted to the corect spot. an moved it back over to system app an copied over the old now browser is gone y wont it install :S
did you take out META-INF file then resign it that works for me sometimes
Lol didn't we just say it had to be re signed to replaced stuff in the apk.
Also tip fore you guys when you resign an apk you don't need to delete the meta inf folder in will replace the old one

If you want it to install, you need to sign the .apk
There is a signing tool. Search for it. I would link it, but I am on my phone, not the computer

maybe rename it back to its original name. dont move it from the sdcard to the system/app folder just use astro and open it from the sdcard then it will install.
still wouldnt work but adb did witch it took me hours to figure out how to set up adb.
so is there a good adb cmd guide on here

Okay before you get all up in arms, not for dirty photos. I figure I could download photovault, but I'd really rather not, as it's not too huge of a deal.
Basically, I have a bunch of icons on my phone for use on my desktop, but I don't particularly like when I have to pick a photo for a contact or for a frame, having to scroll through my hundred or so icons.
I guess what I'm asking is has anyone found a way to hide certain folders from the gallery? Or, does anyone know how to make an icon pack, for dxtop, better home?
: )
Thanks
rename the folder to have a . in front of the name. This hides files in linux.

LOL! Yeah, most us folks in the south are still a little sensitive about that and with good reason.
Only one issue with the period method. Ironically your phone will be a little *****y. When you do this, existing icons will be hidden from gallery and still work. Just remember to put NEW icons in download or some other folder to set them, then move them to the hidden folder. Icon and other picture selection screens use the gallery program to display that image selection screen. In other words, if you put new pictures directly in a hidden folder, you cant set them as icons.
There are also some apps on the Market that will create a protected area for pictures that can't be seen by the Pictures app. And yeah, I assume this would be used for your porn collection rather than your icons.

I can edit it with photoshop if I can find it. Can anyone give me a hint to the file path?
EDIT: Hah...ok I suck and fail.
I found the apk and edited the images. Looked great. Put the apk back together. Unistalled the original apk and tried to install my modified apk. Would not install. I'm done with it for now. I guess I will read up on signing tomorrow although I thought I had read that system apps didn't need to be signed.
I'll play with it more tomorrow.
do adb pull /system/framework/framework-res.apk
And the images should n in the drawable-hdpi. Folder if not just look around until u find the images
Then pull the framework from your current Rom and replace your images with the images you want then repush your framework hack to the phone and reboot

If you figure it out can you pack a zip of just the 3g icon in blue as well for me?
Thanks man
Thanks for the tips. With a little help from google, I was able to figure it out.
Which icon did you need exactly? The 3g toggle or the notification bar?
well, i did it and replaced some old icons with cooler looking ones, but the 3g icons (along with similar data icons) did not show up. all of the other ones showed up. also, i read a thread where this dude got 4g icons from another rom and installed them on his phone to make it look like he had 4g, but then hours later, he experienced loss of mobile data... and now i think i am too... any suggestions?
I'm sorry I can't help you. I am learning all this myself and wouldn't pretend to know where to start on that. All I can say is that if you are going to make any changes then backup early and often.
The 3g toggle icons I was looking for were in system/app. I merely reskinned them and dropped them back in.

I'm running a theme and mine is already skinned. I think either way you would still have to adb push it onto your phone. I did some googling and took a crash course on changing system icons.
Once I figured it out, it made sense (i know that sounds stupid, but after i did it, I was like oh yeah I get it now). I know that's not a big help, but I'm new to this and wouldn't want to bork your phone. Maybe someone more knowledgable will come save the day.
Otherwise I would google in terms like editing apks and adb pull adb push etc. and maybe you will figure it out too.
Hell I can't wait to ruin my phone now that I am armed and dangerous =)

Anyone know how I'd do this? I already have the edited png's.
Can I send any of you guys the folder with the icons and you can help me out with this?
Thanks again
It seems the easiest way to change or theme icons is to not unzip them. Just open them with 7zip and make your changes, then close it. They will stay compressed and all of the info and size will remain intact.
Once changed you will have to resign the apk or zip file.
I spent the better part of 2 hours reading up on it using these forums and google, but I do not in any way feel knowledgable enough to instruct you on the finer points. There are oodles of topics on editing apk's and signing them when you are finished.
The steps seem pretty clear:
1. download or pull apk
2. open with 7zip
3. make changes keeping sizes and file names the same
4. close
5. re-sign the apk or zip file (most likely have to delete the existing files to the original signing which will be replaced with your own)
6. push or install the zip or apk (make sure the original app is uninstalled prior to reinstalling the changed app)
There are various methods and tools. The most helpful thread I found on signing is here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=473580
I hope this covers it all and is helpful to you. I am new at it and can only tell you to backup everything and if you are unclear on any of it, then don't attempt it.
Read all the posts related to it. There is great info and plenty of feedback on known issues or mistakes others have had.
Hey all, question for ya,
been messing around with the notification pull down. Got it just the way I want it, except for when downloading from the market I get black on black text. Hard to read. really no big deal but it is bugging the heck out of me. Read tons of posts/sites where people have had the same prob. on various phones/roms but can't find a solution.
Anyone know what to change or do???
Here is a pic for clarification.
Thanks Nycorduroy
There is a post a few pages back about modding the xmls.
Do a search in the theme thread for "xml edit"
phim, gets pretty in depth, easier way is to use apk manager, decompile the apk, modify the xml, recompile the apk. DO NOT PUSH THE RECOMPILED FRAMEWORK! pushing a recompiled frame work will give you endless fc's
open the new compiled framework with 7zip and drag your newly compiled xmls into your good framework. then push that one.
Dont forget to do a back up first!
If you dont want to edit the xmls, feel free to grab one of my themes and pull them out.
Thanks for the quick response!! Which xml files am I looking to edit?? they are in the framework file I assume. Any other info you have is appreciated. Right now it looks like it is just when downloading files to phone. After download all is good and in white. thanks again

The easiest way for you to do it is just grab the xml files that have already been edited from one of the other themes and plug them into your phone...
How do we know which xml is the right one to apply? And where?
@ ny - no worries, i like to help out any way i can, so I dont put a major lockdown on most stuff i have made

I've been trying to mess with this for a while and cant figure it out...
If I take a random theme, and decompile it, then decompile the shared.m10 file, how do you figure out which picture represents what?
Do you need to just skim thru the texture files till you find what you think is the file you want to replace? Does anyone know which files represent, say the bottom dock bar and components?
I would hate to have to play the guessing game, but I guess I'll have to if that's necessary. I'd assume someone would know the file names of the normal files that are themed though...
Any guidance would be appreciated! I can find guides about what to do, but I have no idea how to figure out what files are what, except for guessing..

well bro after u decompile the fusion file look the same on ur fone as well as u scroll images srch the same on fone and soon u'll b able to co-relate all images.like u can c dock, clock, friends stream etc...apply the theme on fone and the jst read...little tiring bt once done its done.....
It will be a guessing game. The worst part about M10 tools is the fact the friking file names are never the same if you decompile more than once
At leas the order is the same... so you're just gonna have to get a 6th sense and remember where the texture you want to modify lives :/

Hi everyone! Im making a theme for Gingerbread for the Galaxy Tab and am stuck because of an icon I cant get rid of or find where it is! Can someone help and tell me WHERE the icon (below attached) that pops up on the task bar during Media Scanning, is hidden? I looked everywhere, all system APKs I can think of including framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk and cannot find it anywhere. Its driving me crazy!
I've successfully modded stat_notify_sdcard.png, stat_notify_sdcard_prepare.png and stat_notify_sdcard_usb.png from framework-res.apk and during PREPARE SD CARD operations the new updated icons show up.
However during MEDIA SCANNING operations, the old shows up again, no matter what. This stock icon I want to replace is hiding still somewhere else (..I cleaned all caches multiple times just in case and doesn't fix it)

First, the download successful graphic was indeed in the vending.apk but when the download is not successful the standard red warning triangle is displayed. This graphic is not part of the vending.apk so im assuming its pulled from the standard stat_sys_warning.png from framework-res.apk?
Finally, I need to change and that is the size of the fonts for the date display on the top right of the taskbar. Do you know which XML or file I need to edit to change that font size?

I do believe the status bar clock is controlled by the services.jar and not a particular. Xml file, but ive never edited that clock so i am not 100% positive. Im horrible with smali code. Sorry! Yes the stat-notify-error.png in framework-res would control the statusbar icon for errors while downloading apps.

Thanks much!!

It's been a while but I'm pretty sure that one is either framework-res or twframework-res (if you're still on a TW ROM). I thought I saw it in amongst the stat_sys_* images, but I could be completely wrong. I don't think I've tried editing that one.
EDIT: By the way, check in status_bar_expanded.xml and status_bar.xml for some parameters regarding the clock, but be careful cos they can ruin a theme (everything from graphical artifacts to bootloops) quite easily.
