Stuck while making a new theme because of an icon! - Galaxy Tab Themes and Apps

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)
Thanks in advance for the tip!

maybe you find in under music player ?
who knows
i never saw it before ~~

YES! UR absolutely right, it actually made sense to be inside that package! thank you very much! I have one more (last) icon I cant trace where it is I want to modify for my theme; its the icon that pops on the left on the taskbar afetr an app is installed (for example after a package ins downloaded from Market and then installed, this is the notification icon). Can U help help me locate inside which package its hiding?
Thanks a lot again XDAholic

You're right again, thank you very very much!! Im almost done with all the graphics except one and editing some XMLs:
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?
Thanks again for all you amazing knowledge and help on this

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.

Out of curiosity, Ive seen the icon on the WIFI tab that shows the signal strength and encryption status some where in an APK resource but now, cant find it anymore. Does anyone know where its located? (Screenshot below in case UR not sure what Im talking about).

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.

Clear Taskbar

I did a search, found one but the icons are changed. Does anyone have a .zip to have a clear taskbar (completely see through bar at the top) and leave whatever current icons I have on?

unless its metamorphed then it will change ur icons at the top. the png is in the framework files so what ever the framework file where someone changes the png will also change the icons that are in the framework file. like mentioned above the only other alternative is to use a metamorph to just change that one file.
Can you point me in the direction to that through metamorph?

[REQ] Inverse Notification Icon Color (Black Status Bar)

I was wondering if there is a way to reverse icon colors in the status bar. I just downloaded a black status bar and a lot of the icons blend into the black bar (if that makes sense).
If anyone can help me out, thanks. I don't know anything at all about coding and very little about the root process, so a Metamorph option would be the easiest way for me, although I can figure out theming.

Haven´t checked that...best, open file and have a look before you morph.

Wow that is a great idea. I never thought of that haha (still brand new to this stuff). Well, unfortunately it doesn't have icons for Messaging, Gmail and a few others. Thanks for the idea though. Now I know I can check.
Any other ideas?
Anyone know of anything else to do?
Shameless bump because I really want this.
There is a desire morph around somewhere, locate the files or images you want and I can make a morph, just need to know what rom and icons.
Also bumping. Now that CM has theming, I think someone should have one out.

I checked out ninja morph. You're right, it does exactly what you said...EXCEPT you have to modify every icon individually, which ends up being an enormous pain.
Also, I could have missed something but how do you inverse icons directly on the phone? I looked around and still couldnt find anything. Ended up transfering them to the pc and editing them from there.
In the end, I'm just amazed that android doesn't have a unified icon / theming system yet. To edit messages, you have to go in to mms.apk (took me forever to figure that one out), to edit gmail you have to look in gmail.apk, system icons were in framework, etc. What a pain.

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 =)

Lol, i actuallly finally figured out how to extract the png's, so i am going to edit in photoshop, then replace the current images with the app ninjamorph.
*didnt work* left a huge blank space on noti. bar and when I rebooted to see if it would show, I bootlooped*
Well. I spent last night learning to resign edited apk files, so literally nothing on my phone is safe now.

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.

Theming GB NewsWidget.APK Issues

In my opinion the orange on the Blur News Widget looks very odd against the blue Gingerbread notification bar.
So I thought I could take it upon myself to change that, and in my attempt to change the color I always run into the same issue, the issue "stretch" correctly.
I did the following:
1. Pulled the APK from my DROID X
2. unzipped it with APK Manager
3. Made my changes to the specific images
4. Edited it with draw9patch (Tried NOT doing this also)
5. Zipped the APK.
6. ADB push NewsWidget.APK /system/app/NewsWidget.apk
Any help is appreciated, thanks.

I can tell by looking at your edited pngs that you only passed them through drawpatch9 and didn't run them through eclipse or xUltimate afterward, that's why they are not stretching properly; I also noticed that you didn't properly draw the lines on the vertical png because it was giving errors.
Try this: http://www.mediafire.com/?a5soknd0381k1xp
Hopefully it works like you want
I can't test it out because I am running ApeX 2.0 Alpha 2, and the NewsWidget doesn't work (most likely missing other apks that NewsWidget requires to work properly).

The only issue with it now is that RSS icon and the 'widget name' displays incorrectly.
Also, would you mind explaining what Eclipse and xUltimate has to do with it, for my own future reference? ^_^
P.S. Thanks so much =D
Modified newswidget.apk
I also ran into the initial problem of the stretching. After I fixed that, I also noticed the position settings of the RSS Icon and "News" word to be out of place.
So I thought it was something I had messed up. I restored the original newswidget.apk and everything was fixed (except I was back to the orange bars).
I borrowed the modified apk from bouchigo, removed the files
orange_sleeve_horiz.9.png
orange_sleeve_vert.9.png
and I used Ninjamorph to put them into the stock newswidget.apk. And even then I had the same problem of offset RSS icon and "news".
I also used bouchigo's newswidget.apk as a whole but even that had the same RSS / "News" offset issue.
Sorry to bring up a slightly older thread.

Here it is, along with a screenshot:
To install adb push the NewsWidget.apk to /system/app/NewsWidget.apk
Code:
adb push NewsWidgetBLUE.apk /system/app/NewsWidget.apk
if you get an error about read/write permissions then use:
Code:
adb remount
In later time I will open a new NewsWidget themeing thread and also upload a flashable zip.
The issue, I believe, is that when running the image through Draw9Patch the bottom border wasn't drawn correctly, which forced the RSS icon and name space to be pushed to the side.
Also, instead on simply unzipping the apk, I decompiled it and made my edits. Which fixed the issues I was having.

So you want to replace the icons with new icons. Do u have the icons u want? And if so you need to pull the the three apks from your phone and open them and find the icons and change them with what you want. Then put them back in your systems/app folder and restart your phone if that's what u are talking about anyways

If you just want to change the icons, Find some you like and use the app (free) Desktop Visualiser
its as simple as that.
If you want to theme the whole app, Use 7zip to open the apk, Look inside the /res /drawable and modify all the icons and pngs with photoshop or other software.
idk what you want to change , but in every app + system app , if you open it with winrar or 7zip you will find folder called (RES) inside the app in this folder you will find three folders that contain the icons that the app display , from there you can change the icons , make sure it has the same dimensions.
PS: if its not system app then you have to ask the dev permission .

The phone and contacts images are both in the contacts.apk and the messaging is in the mms.apk. From memory I think they are in the drawable-xhdpi and are labeled something along the lines of ic launcher phone, contacts mms.

Use adb to push them back to the phone.
If you don't know, learn. Don't always rely on clockwork.
