ICONS on APP Drawer

Do you guys know how to replace the icons on the app drawer??
any way like flashing it?
thanks...

fastest way : use one of the launcher (go launcher,adw,etc) and then download the theme....
other way : decompile,change icon, compile back some apk (CMIIW)....but I never try it before, so I don't know which apk you must decompile.... sorry for that...
I'm just a nubie

thanks for the reply, though i know the launchers... it's just that i wanted to have icons alone... for the steel blue theme that has been ported for G-Fit...
probably, i have to wait more for something, for bulk changes...

You have to change the apk's icons one by one if you don't use any launchers that supports icon packs (stock launcher)

I am not sure about WinRAR....
Have you tried it?
WinRAR's Compression methods are different than that of 7-ZIP and I am not sure if you will end up with the correct compression for your modified APK file....

I use winrar too, to change the statusbar icon

Well 7zip is better than winrar and its what I use when compiling and editing apk files

if you download from here the zip http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1421126
when openend you find only filemaps with the name of an app like mms.apk
insinde is res map and another map
just place in the last map your icon rename it like thevicon in there and zip it again
but i think you will need to mod an xml file because the fit is an ldpi screen ....

Ya this worked for me. Just a requeat that can u do some changes in launcher so that 'apps' icon in dockbar can be put in center??? Right now its on the right corner.
Also if u observe then u will notice that in app drawer, icon are look like iphone icons. Means square arround icons looks very ugly. Its called icon backdrop. Can u remove that icon backdrop???

I will try to do it.I have left only 2 days to holidays and I am not a profesional I am still learning

[q]how to add crt animation , enable landscape mode and transparency?[q]

it's all there in the framework-res.apk

copy this to /system/framework using root explorer or any file manager.
it'll give you all that you need but at some places the text formatting may get messed up
do make a backup of the original and replace at your own risk.

If possible try learnin how to add CRT by your self
Decompile framework-res.apk
Go to values-->bools.xml
Change animate screen lights (dont know the xact name) to true from false
compile it back
Open build.prop in system folder and delete line debug.sf dont know the xact line but starts like this )
Thn Flash it via recovery and U r done
If u r not able to do all these things just send me the framework-res.apk and build.prop and 'd do it for u

dude by changing stuff in build.prop dosent the phone slow down?
i changed my version number and display name, it worked well but apps in sd card on tw took 15 min to show

nd ive seen on other sites u gotta change many more things

new settings apk is fine but there is nothing charming......it should be either completely blue (better) or completely green.if you see properly you will find its a hybrid of two which makes it rubbish......
for example,go to volume-its green
go to battery-its blue.....

After i paste it can i recover the ori back? n how? Thanks!

First back-up your settings.apk,that inside of System/app to SD card folder.
Then replace this.
So you have a backup to restore again.

All Stock Wallpapers
This apk has STOCK WALLPAPERS from various devices that are modded to appear nicely in the Android WALLPAPER GALLERY menu .. Again, I repeat the WALLPAPER GALLERY menu NOT the 'Gallery'. (Long press 'HOME SCREEN' and then select 'WALLPAPER GALLERY')
**BONUS** - added Jamison's Infamous ROM default wallpaper to the list as well. So now you can change your wallpaper and still have the ability to get back the cool default that came with the Infamous ROM. I am looking for full size image of the lockscreen hand pic to add to the list as well.
Instructions: Backup your TwWallpaperChooser.apk in system/app just in case anything goes wrong. Extract ZIP then ADB push to system/app or copy to system/app using Root Explorer or similar. Assign rw-r--r-- permissions. Enjoy and Jamison keep up the good work my brotha!!!
