After receiving many questions on how I modded my Espier Launcher.apk I decided to write this tutorial. Many thanks to Taine0 for inspiration and initial instructions!
WHAT THIS GUIDE IS FOR:
-How to change icons in espier launcher
-How to change page indicators
-How to change dock
-How to change notification bubble
-How to add custom icons (for apps not natively themed by espier launcher) RECENTLY EDITED
-How to install onto phone
A. Preliminary Steps:
1. Install apktool
2. Create a directory called Espier launcher mod
3. Download Espier Launcher and rename to launcher.apk
4. Place Espier Launcher into that directory.
5. Open terminal.
6. Change terminal directory to your Espier launcher mod folder.
E.G. I ran this:
Code:
cd /home/gaurav/Desktop/Espier launcher mod
7. Decompile the apk.
Code:
apktool d launcher.apk
B. Changing basic icons.
**UPDATE**
Now, to prevent icons from being edited (in a bad way) by Espier Launcher, download this icon and place it in drawable-(h/m/l)dpi. This is crucial to prevent your icons from getting a weird white glow around them!
1. Open res/drawable-(hdpi/ldpi/mdpi/xhdpi) *depending on what screen size your phone is. I have an mdpi so i will go into drawble-mdpi
2. Change the desired icon
For example, the file
Code:
ic_com_android_camera_preparecamera.png
can be replaced by an image of the same (or similar) size. when you're done, it should look like:
Screenshot
3. Refer to Section G
C. Changing page indicators
1. Open res/drawable-mdpi
2. Find the file:
Code:
ic_screen_level_focus.png
ic_screen_level_normal.png
3. Replace these two files with desired ones
4. Open res/drawable-hdpi
5. Replace these files with desired images.
Code:
ic_screen_level_focus
ic_screen_level_normal.png
ic_screen_level_search_focus.png
ic_screen_level_search_normal.png
ic_screen_level_widget_focus.png
ic_screen_level_widget_normal.png
6. Refer to Section G.
D. How to change dock
1. Navigate to res/drawable-mdpi (in my case)
2. Find file called
Code:
toolbar.png
3. Replace with desired (make sure the dock image is correct size for your phone)
4. Refer to Section G.
E. How to change notification bubble.
1. Open res/drawable-mdpi
2. Find and replace with desired image
Code:
icon_shuzi1.png
3. Refer to Section G.
F. How to add custom icons
*Warning* This section is a lot more confusing. Please read carefully. *Warning*
1. Navigate to /res/values/arrays.xml
2. Now, it gets tricky.
3. Go this website
4. Search for an app. It should look like this:
Screenshot
5. Now, in arrays.xml, scroll down until you see this type of coding
Screenshot
6. Get to the end of that "chunk" of xml.
7. Let's say we're theming the facebook app. So we add this to xml. (and fill it out with info)
Code:
<item>ACTIVITY_OF_APP</item>
<item>DESCRIPTIVE_ACTIVITY_OF_APP</item>
<item>@drawable/NAME_OF_APP</item>
For example:
Code:
<item>com.facebook.katana</item>
<item>com.facebook.katana.LoginActivity</item>
<item>@drawable/facebook</item>
You get the first line of info like this:
Screenshot
and the second:
Screenshot
in that third line of that xml we add (@drawable/NAME_OF_APP), you can name your app anything you want. i made it "facebook" in this case.
8. Save and exit.
9. Find a desired image for your application (in this case facebook).
10. Rename it to "NAME_OF_APP.png" in this case, "facebook.png"
11. Drop that file into drawable/mdpi
12. Repeat steps 1-11 for as many applications as you want to theme.
13. Refer to Section G.
G. How to install on your phone
1. First, save and close everything you're working on.
2. Open your terminal, and change its directory to the "espier launcher mod" folder
3. Type in
Code:
apktool b 'PATH_TO/espier launcher mod' 1.apk
4. Take that 1.apk, and sign it, using a program like ApkSigner
5. Connect your phone to your computer via USB.
6. Mount it as a mass storage device.
7. Transfer that signed.apk to the root of your sdcard.
8. Now on your phone, uninstall any current version of EspierLauncher you may have.
9. Then, using a file manager, install the signed.apk from your sdcard.
YOU'RE DONE!

Yup! I got a lot of requests so I made this guide! Glad you like it!!

I modded this launcher myself removing backdops, icon backgrounds. But changing
the png file with a transparent file. Can you teach doing this by changin code?
Secondly can you teach how to use 2 lines icon names? I do this by changing
a code but i think you already know this.
With all of these it will be a perfect launcher.

mind posting/sharing your modded espier launcher?

This is dope! Great job mate!

Oh yes, i forgot to include how to get rid of icon backdrops...I do not know how to change the code (regards to the icon backgrounds) nor I know how to make the icon names have 2 lines :/ If you could post those instructions, i will add to OP and give you some credit

Why don't you Share your apks ?

why dont you just share you apks dude?

For everyone wondering why he won't share his modded launcher, it's because the icons aren't for release. He made this tutorial, why not just do it yourself?
Really nice and thorough tut! I was waiting over on deviantart but didn't see it until now!
For those not wanting to install apktool, the same can be done with apkmanager much easier. Gaurav, I would actually recommend changing the tutorial to use apkmanager instead. Much easier for the noobs You would only have to change up a couple of steps.

iLauncher is better.

Mate, I don't use apktool nor apk manager. I just use 7zip for modding apks and I can't seem to find the values folder on the res so I can't add any app activities on array.xml :/

You have to use one of the two, they decompile the apks so the XML is readable. Unzipping with 7 zip will result in a bunch of gibberish for XML.

Well, thanks to supetawesomedude and his awesome guide, I moded espier launcher so now it has Suave theme This theme is for MDPI devices only (I dont have HDPI devices so I can't test). Backup your Espier Launcher config, remove it, install the file below and restore the config Enjoy

awesome guide bro, but too complex for me to get my head around it lol, if they just allowed the option that ilauncher has for custom icons this would rock so much more imo, and thanks TMinh for sharing your setup

So can you only add up to 14 icons by editing the public.xml?
I'm up to 8 right now and just realized it only goes up to icbk_color_14

{THEME} Decked out Blues - Theme Chooser Theme

The wait is officially over!!!
​
For those who are unaware, myself and MrDSL have teamed up to create what we hope will become the most comprehensive Blue theme on earth. Keep in mind that this is the initial release and over the coming weeks we will be adding thousands-tens of thousands of graphics and XML tweaks. For right now, until this thread is updated and stating so, this theme will work on any device with hdpi resolution. Originally, this was developed for the Evo, but in the not-so-distant future, we ought to update it to be compatible with ALL resolutions (mdpi, ldpi and xhdpi)
Custom project requests can be PM'd.
For those wondering where this came from, I had been a huge fan of MrDSL's mixxer theme since CM6, but wanted to do a blue theme. As luck would have it, I have experience in Graphics Editing and MrDSL is a master with the T-Mobile theme engine. So, we combined our efforts and the blue glory below is the end result.
Without further adieu, we proudly present an original version and a hybrid that will be the coolest thing you've ever seen for Deck's!!!
The first is below and simply needs to be installed and chosen in Theme Chooser and the second is a MrDSL special and he will explain how to do it.
In the Theme:
Go Launcher EX fully themed stock theme
settings
framework
systemUI
music
Shootme
email
App Icons
I know missing some, but I'm exhausted and just download, install and choose in theme chooser and have your socks blown off.
Decked out Blues!!!
Decked out Fancy Widget Clock skin
- extract the zip and place the folder that the images are in, in /SDCARD/Android/data/fancywidgets/clockskins then choose in Fancy Widgets
Decked Out Blue Go Widgets
- if you have problems installing this, uninstall the transparent theme after clearing the app's cache and data, then install this.
See post 2 for instructions on getting results like this:

}
Lockscreen and Reboot menu
Now we have the Lockscreen and Reboot menu. This is NOT a flashable zip. You need to use metamorph or zipthemer from the market to apply this mod because its not supported by the theme engine.
​
This mod is a bit more difficult..Its the ICS Statusbar Layout by ZduneX25. I got rid of the carrier label so it would work with the theme. Below I will include flashable zips for Decks 1.3 and Decks 1.3d. I have tested both and they both work fine.
Its very important you follow these instructions when installing​
1.) Flash ics_patch.zip and reboot ( you will probably get fc's and your statusbar may not even load..this is normal just let it load then reboot back in recovery
2.) Now flash ics_undo.zip and reboot and load.
3.) Go into recovery and flash ics_patch.zip again and reboot and it should work fine now.
it looks awesome!!! i've been refreshing my page for this lol, good work guys
this is awesome! Thank you!!!
Awesome awesome Can't wait.

make sure the folder with the images "deckdxoom" is in the "clockskins" folder and not within another "deckdxoom" folder. if you're using root explorer on the phone it will extract it within a folder of hte same name. happened to me.

sorry, i thought you meant you couldn't see it as an option in fancy widgets.
have you ever downloaded any other skins for fancy widgets or backed up its settings? I have those files within the fancy widgets folder. So, if not that might be why the folder was not created.

[10.30.12][TOOLS][TUTS]Let My People THEME!!![WIP]

I would like to see everyone getting evolved with personalizing there phone to their liking. Minor theming is not hard at all (i can do it lol). But its opens a door to what can be done with alot of effort from you. We wont have this phone forever, and it is a difficult one to mod, so by starting on this one it should only get easier... right?
Im gonna be stepping back on theming and mod investigations for a few weeks, im still in process of moving and everything is getting packed soon, un packed when house is ready in couple weeks.
These are necessities for tools to start customizing your rom.
(please correct me if any info is incorrect )
Note: I run WIN764 so these main links are for windows. I will link original threads for other OS'. Also with label em.]

Apk Manager 5.0.2 [OP] : Great Tools, has options. [NOW APK-Multitool]
Apk Mutli-Tool [OP] : I used this one the most for mutliple edited apks.
Apk Changer [OP] : Best tool for editing one apk at a time, only one i use for .jars.
[THEME TOOLS]
I.D.i.O.T : Theme DataBase [NEW FEATURES]
Auto Theme Porter [OP] : Used to port themes [.pngs/.9s only] that have same file names, works great for froyo to froyo port. GB and ICS have to do by hand with name changes etc. This is easy way of porting images, you will still have to edit xmls.
[EDITOR TOOLS]
7zip : Oh so essential for apks!
Notepad++ : Needed to edit XMLs.
To be continued....
Theme guides
These are great guides to share, all have basics but great to cross reference for troubleshooting.

IF you are looking at skinning, I would say most of your edits will be in xml files.
There will be an apk associated with the widget. I would start by decompiling that, using apkmanager (That is my preference. I haven't played with any of the programs ciscogee is recommending) and starting with simple PNG edits. Then work your way up from there.

One thing I forgot to mention. You will need to install the SDK, java dev kit., and have adb in your path, to use apkmanager. Ciscogee has a tut linked in the op for that.

Now you are starting to learn what to ask. No, you don't. Xml controls what images are shown, where they appear on the screen, and the text colors and sizes. But changing the actual colors of the buttons themselves doesn't affect the xml.
Dished out by my dumb digits
Anyone getting to themeing? Don't be afraid to ask questions. Would love to see what chall have done.

Unzip the apk with the imgs u want to port.
Then open your apk you want to mod with 7z
Drag imgs from port apk to the 7z window and replace.
Make sure they have the same name.
Are the imgs also hdpi?
Close 7z window and save changes etc.
Put your apk in a flashable zip.
(Use trailblazers themer, [copy apk in same folder as batch and drag into batch, follow on-screen instructions. ])
Flash in cwm
Clear cache and dalvick.

Few more MODs - light theme
Hi guys
As I really don't have free time I made few more framework MODs based on light theme.
As soon as I find some free time I'll MOD our framework to use dark theme and will use some dark backgrounds...
3D swirl
DOWNLOAD 3D SWIRL
White dolphin
DOWNLOAD WHITE DOLPHIN
Blue line
DOWNLOAD BLUE LINE
As I said - these are just simple MODs, only with changed background pictures.
When I catch some time I'll MOD blue to blue and dark to dark.
This one is the best to use with @xXWeresXx dark apps - it should look very good
DIRTY DARK
It looks ugly but as I said - use this one with @xXWeresXx dark apps (he MOD apps one by one) and it will look great and your fonts should be white
DOWNLOAD DIRTY DARK
Sent from my Z1
quick TUTORIAL
As I promised....
It's very simple to do this.
Copy framework-res.apk to your PC
Open it with WinZip and go to folder xxhdpi. (res/drawable-xxhdpi)
You'll find there two pngs (pictures) with a name semc_bg_light.png and semc_bg.xml.
Semc_bg_light.png is for light theme and the other one is for dark theme...but this isn't important now.
Now you need to download or create one png and rename or name it to semc_bg_light.png
On our Z1 we are using light MOD, so the png we need to change is semc_bg_light.png.
Now, take your png (that you created), check once again it has right name and copy it (with WinZip) to folder res/drawable-xxhdpi (in your framework-res.apk apk).
You'll get window opened with a few questions.
Don't change anything except "compression method"!
Set that to "store"
Copy your framework-res.apk back to your phone.
Copy it to system.
Change permissions to 0644.
Move framework-res.apk to framework folder (system/framework)
Open your settings, calls, email or SMS app and enjoy your new design

Then I'll have to fix style.xml to show white fonts.
If someone has time to do that - fell free to do @xXWeresXx - you could do that

Very nice bro. Thanks for quick TUTORIAL.
The thing is...
Every app use some info from framework but some info are still coming from style.xml and layout.xml from every app itself.
So I have to edit every app individually and, of course, framework.
That's not easy or quick job but I will try to edit and build perfect framework and with @xXWeresXx dark apps we'll have great user experience

Awesome, thanks!
Used 7-zip myself to drag n drop and it seems to work just fine (simply created an all black png, saves about 1 MB as well ). Thinking about changing other png's too, but as I'm lazy I'll wait with that a bit...

quick TUTORIAL
As I promised....
It's very simple to do this.
Copy framework-res.apk to your PC
Open it with WinZip and go to folder xxhdpi. (res/drawable-xxhdpi)
You'll find there two pngs (pictures) with a name semc_bg_light.png and semc_bg.xml.
Semc_bg_light.png is for light theme and the other one is for dark theme...but this isn't important now.
Now you need to download or create one png and rename or name it to semc_bg_light.png
On our Z1 we are using light MOD, so the png we need to change is semc_bg_light.png.
Now, take your png (that you created), check once again it has right name and copy it (with WinZip) to folder res/drawable-xxhdpi (in your framework-res.apk apk).
You'll get window opened with a few questions.
Don't change anything except "compression method"!
Set that to "store"
Copy your framework-res.apk back to your phone.
Copy it to system.
Change permissions to 0644.
Move framework-res.apk to framework folder (system/framework)
Open your settings, calls, email or SMS app and enjoy your new design

I really doubt you can't use this on Xperia L...
It should be similar or even same on all Xperia.
You just have to change folder you are working in...
For example for Xperia S is xhdpi, for Xperia Z1 is xxhdpi and so on...
But procedure is same - it's all Sony UI.

[TUT] How to MOD 4.3 themes

Hi guys...
In 290 firmware (Android 4.3) we have new and nice theme engine which we can use to easily MOD our devices and make it more personal.
For now, we have only few themes (on market) and it's time that we buil/MOD our own...
It's very easy to do that...
You can change
* navigation bar
* status bar
* icons (Home launcher, nav bar)
* system backgrounds (in settings)
...and many other things...
I'll do some MOD after Xmas but for now (as I don't have free time) I give you this fast and easy "How to".
1.Download themes from XDA
DOWNLOAD 4.3 THEMES
2. Decompile theme
* you'll get this
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
3. Now go into the folder "assets"
* you'll see few zip files
#. android.zip - system buttons, checkbox and other png's
#. android.systemUI.zip - png's for systemUI change (here you can see png's for navigation bar)
#. com.sonyericsson.home.zip - well...this isn't hard to figure out - in this folder you can find icons and png's for Home launcher.
* like this :
4. Extract zip file - the one you wanna change...
For example, let's say, we want to change icons on navigation bar.
- Extract file to you apktool folder (com.android.systemUI.zip),
Rename com.android.systemUI.zip to com.android.systemUI.apk and decompile it like you decompiled main apk (theme)
go to folder res/drawable-xxhdpi, change or replace png's (back, home, menu...) save files (you must use same name and resolution)
5. Change png's you want to change
(it's just to show how to do it, don't use Paint for editing )
6. Recompile com.android.systemUI
and rename it back to com.android.systemUI.zip
6a. Copy com.android.systemUI.zip back to assets folder (delete old one first)
6b. Recompile theme
7. Install apk on your device like any other apk file.
If you can't install app and you get errors - ~ DO THIS
FOLLOW ME
And that's it....
It's easier than built theme from a scratch...
You can change settings background (android.zip/res/drawable-xxhdpi/semc_bg.jpg and semc_bg_light.xml) and many other things....
Be creative and when you build something - share here
As I said, I'll make something as soon as Xmas past....
don't forget to install new framework and semcgeneric apk on your PC - we have changed Android version and you could bump into compiling errors if you use framework from 4.2.2
Extract framework and semcgeneric apk from system/framework to your Apktool folder and
In CMD you have to write :
Apktool if framework-res.apk
Apktool if semcgenericuxpres.apk
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
IMPORTANT
For now we are only succeeding to MOD and use MODed themes on stock based, rooted devices.
You'll need root - that's most important.
I'm developing/patching services.jar to bring this awesome themes for all - stock and stock based ROMs.
So try to use patched services.jar from second post on stock rooted 4.3 and please report.

You can edit 9.png - just check tutorials online...
HOW TO EDIT 9.png"
If your decompilig and recompiling process went well - it must work.
What you can do, if you can't install apk, install app called zipsigner
ZIPSIGNER MARKET LINK and sign your edited app to your framework.
Then try to install it
Edit : you can use this tutorial for zipsigner app

@niaboc79 will know better but I'll try to explain.
Color.xml is only for signing the color not for using it.
You have to set color in color.xml and than you have to "call" this color in style.xml, layout or manifest...
You could change already assigned color in color.xml - but I'm not sure it'll work. (I'm guessing you tried that)
Android use only two modes for colors - dark and light, not colors - themes.
All other colors (in settings, taskmanager or systemUI) we can change by changing png's or editing smali files.

[HOW TO MOD THEMES] using only WINZIP

O.K guys...
l'll give you "shell" - theme apk file and easy tutorial for editing and adjusting
your device to be more personal.
It is optimized and written to be easy and user friendly.
Only thing you'll need it WINZIP (or similar program) and , of course, yours pictures and icons.
You can easily create icons for navigation bar in PhotoShop , you just need to follow simple rules.
1.DIMENSIONS
Icons must be created in dimensions :
* FOR PORTRAIT - 144*240 (pixels)
* FOR LANDSCAPE - 240*144 (pixels)
* FOR MENU ICON USE - 141*144 (pixels)
(you can experiment with a dimensions but this tutorial is here to be exact and
that you could follow every step (for beginners).
2. NAMING THE FILES
This is very importing part!
All files must have proper name, if you don't follow this rule you'll end in a bootloop or
systemUI FC.
3. USE "STORE MODE" IN COMPRESSION METHOD (WINZIP)
O.K...let's begin.
*** PREPARATION ***
Find (online) or create (PhotoShop) wallpapers - dimensions should be 1080*1920.
Resize one and save as copy for landscape.
(Just resize it to 1920*1080)
Find or create icons for status bar (you can find great icons on "themes and apps" section
Save all that in one folder - we'll need that later.
*** DOWNLOAD "shell" apk ***
We will use this apk file for our base.
It's basically, my KitKat theme but slightly modified.
DOWNLOAD LINK
DOWNLOAD SHELL.APK
Open shell.apk with WinZip
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
You'll see few folders and files, what we need is folder called "assets"
So go to folder "assets" and you'll see four ZIP files
Let's explain what is what...
1. com.sonyericsson.home.zip
In this ZIP we have all png's (pictures and icons) for editing Xperia Home Launcher (stock!)
So, we can change few thing there, trash bin, trash lid, app drawer icon...
2. com.android.systemui.zip
In this ZIP we have all png's (pictures and icons) for editing SYSTEMUI.
So, we can change few things here too.... navigation bar icons or navigation bar color (transparency...)
3. android.zip
I modified this ZIP and deleted files we don't need.
It'll be used for changing settings, email, sms, call.... background picture.
Only thing what you need now, when you have pictures and icons already downloaded is
to :
* open shell.apk in WINZIP.
* decide what you want to change (lets say it's settings background)
* go to folder android.zip
* go to subfolder "res" , then "drawable-xxhdpi"
* you'll see two jpg files there, one is for dark mode and one for light.
we use light theme on our Z1 but we'll change them all.
* open your folder where you downloaded your 1080*1920 pictures
* choose one and make exact copy of it (right click copy or CTRL+C and paste (CTRL+V)
* now rename those two files to "semc_bg.jpg" and "semc_bg_light.jpg"
* do same thing for that picture you resized for lanscape (you'll have four files total- two with a name semc_bg.jpg (portrait and landscape) and two with a name semc_bg_light.jpg ( portrait and landscape)
* go back to your WINZIP and delete two files from "drawable-xxhdpi"
* now you can use drag and drop or add files through menu, I'll show you second method
* click "add" and find yours jpg files (semc_bg and semc_bg_light PORTRAIT)
* "say" O.K and be sure to select STORE MODE from compression method
*repeat same thing in folder "drawable-sw720dp-hdpi
* repeat same thing in folder "drawable-sw720dp-land- (add LANDSCAPE pictures here)
* close this (second) WINZIP windows and you'll get prompt "File "android.zip was modified.......
* Click "YES" and close WINZIP
Copy your modified shell.apk , you can rename it , of course to your device and
install like any other apk.
If you get error in install process, just sign apk file using ZIPSIGNER (MODE platform or media)
And that's it...
RESULTS COULD BE AWESOME
When you MOD other folders and files in theme (shell.apk) do same steps.
Only change will be in file names.
But if you are changing navigation bar icon "back" you'll go to com.android.systemui.zip ,
in folder res/drawable-xxhdpi and check what's original name of that png file.
For this icon is "ic_sysbar_back.png" (portrate) and "ic_sysbar_back_land" (landscape) so
you'll need to copy your icons (to have two same icons) and rename them to that names.
Also, don't forget to resize icon if it's not O.K
TIP ~ BONUS ~ EXTRA
If you wanna add wallpapers to your theme
Use same procedure and change. png or.jpg files in shell.apk/res/
As you can see you are able to set lockscreen background, wallpaper and preview picture (I'll show icon in settings/personalisation/themes)
If you need any help, ask here, on this thread.
That's why it's here - and remember, there's no stupid questions (only stupid answers)
So..if I helped you - SAY TNX -

Yes, I know, but that's not subject in this topic.

You did all O.K.
The reason why do you need four jpg/png files is this :
If you open android.zip from assets, you'll see three folders:
And you need to replace files in all folders.
So...
You'll basically need six picture files but we are using same files in drawable-xxhdpi and in drawable-sw720dp-hdpi (portrait files).
In folder drawable-sw720dp-land-hdpi you add semc_bg_light.jpg and semc_bg.jpg (landscape)
And in drawable-sw720dp-hdpi you should add semc_bg_light.jpg and semc_bg.jpg (portrait)
In drawable-xxhdpi should add same files you added to folder drawable-sw720dp-hdpi
Sent from my C6903 using Tapatalk
Also, it'll work if you skip replacing files in folder drawable-sw720dp-land-hdpi.
If you need anything else,- ask again
