I am creating the theme for windows mobile 6.5 using the set of images i have. I am able to create the .cab file which contains all the registry settings ans images. When i install this file to device theme is getting changed but the background image is not getting updated. I am using images with xxxx_stwater_480_800.jpg and xxx_stwater_800_480.jpg with usestartimage key set to 1. But it is not changing the background wallpaper. Also if i renamed this .cab file to .tsk then theme doesnot get change at all. I dont know where i am missing. Plz provide some help..
Thanks in advance,
Sourabh
I think the name has to be stwater_480_800.jpg, not xxxx_stwater_480_800.jpg
At least that's what I use in my theme (and I see it's done in every other themes)
Moved as not theme release...
Hello all,
I am new here and just got my Galaxy S 4g. I am used to creating themes on the iphone and am getting very frustrated with this phone so far. I have rooted my phone, and also downloaded go launcher and a couple widgets. and a couple different file explorers.
Problems I am having is that everyone says the apps and themes are located in the phones data folder. My data folder is always blank with nothing inside. I search for the exact name or location of the apps and it says 0 files. I look at the apps running and details of them tell me they are in the /data folder, but My folder says empty. I even have the show hidden files checked.
Also I am trying to find a way to browse the phones files (not the memory card files) from my computer. I have now read over hundreds of pages of searches and can not find any answers.
Please help me.
the files that you are going to want to find are the framework-res.apk and twframework.apk.
those files are located in the system/framework/
i use android commander to push and pull files cause it is the easiest for me. you will need winrar to unzip the apk's but if you want to edit the .9.png's you will need APK manager to unpack the .9.png's and Ultimate Compiler to recompile after you edit or the png's will stretch wrong and look horrible.
There is a link on the main Android Themes page on XDA that has a wonderful write up in PDF about theming...
ill see what else i can post when i have time later to help you out.

Thanks.

Lol dude you aint gonna be able to hex edit a jar/apk file.
You need a decompiler
signature tool
alot of tools to do it depending on what apk it is.
for editing png you will just want to extract the data
rename the apk to .jar extension
then use an extraction tool to unpack the jar.
the files your looking for will more then likely be in /res/drawable-hdpi/
also you're going to need photoshop to do the img edits more then likely
Well image editing is not a prob for me, I'm a web designer.
I've messed around with codes all my life but I don't know how apk files are made .
I've searched and seen people saying .apk is just a zip which does extract when renamed and i do see alot of text files and a few files that aren't text editable

I think thats because the live wall paper apks dont actually contain the image data from the live wall-papers
I will do a search and try to find where the apk is referencing
Hello guys.
I am wondering if there's any option/programme/app that can detect changes in apk files.
For example:
A dev releases a mod for something, let's say swaps a .png files to a custom .png and shares the mod in a thread.
And i want the same mod but in a different .png.
Now i can ofcourse ask the dev to do it, which is easy but i wont learn anything.
So i decide to try to make it for myself, but having no past experience with android i don't know how to do it.
And here's where the app/programme comes in (if there is one, ofc). A software that can detect any kinds of changes after decompiling apk files. Now many of you know that apk files have several folders inside, and inside those folder are various files.
So this software (if it exists) could be able to detect changes in the modded apk compared to my unmodded apk, and tell me where exactly the change(s) have been made.
In this way i don't need to bother a dev, and i maybe start to learn how to mod special areas of my phones UI.
Thanks for any reply!
Good day!
