Yeah... I know it's something simple. I'm trying to edit the .png files but 7zip won't update what I've done when I'm finished. Plus I'm a hell of a lot more confident in others here than I am myself. I can't just push the phone.apk from that theme, can I? That seems far too simple.

what rom are you running now? ill see what I can do.

Gumbo 1.5c Bare. I think that'll look really good with the DarkStar theme. I switched back to 1.5 just so I can use that theme. I love it!
Thanks, bro. I really appreciate it.
What would happen if I were to just push the phone.apk? It's just a bunch of .png & 9.png files...

I started to do the same thing awhile back but never quite finished. our dialer buttons were in htccontacts.apk if i remember right
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=614830 might help someone.

they are actually in both if you just change contacts then it changes the main dialer but if you go to enter in numbers while in a call then it is still stock to it needs to be both.

ok here ya go the dark star dialer just flash like any other update.

You're the man! Thanks bro!!!

not a problem I shouldnt have to tell to you to backup before flashing. let me know how it works.

Works like a charm! Can you explain what you did so I can start to figure this out for myself?

And post a screen shot as well.
Also -- will this work on Sense?
Oh, +1 for "knowing what you did". What files did you edit?

honestly I could have easly gone in PS and made them but there is an even easier was to do it.
1. downloaded the theme
2. unziped the theme file
3. unziped Phone.apk from theme
4. went into drawable folder.
5. used winrar to open (not unzip) stock Phone.apk and navigated to drawable folder.
6. selected dialer buttons in themes drawable folder
7. draged buttons into stock Phone.apk
repeat with HtcContacts.apk
ziped it all up signed it.
good to go.

Gotcha, and when you said to edit the stuff in the drawable folder -- I presume the actual files that were edited were in the drawable-480x320 folder and began with "phone_number_#_rest/press.png, right?"

It's fine -- I'm just trying to create a custom theme and sometimes don't know which files to actually edit, that's all. Do you know how to create a custom ROM at all -- or at least what all it entails? I know its a lot like creating a theme for the most part, but I'm not even sure where to begin the process.

Thanks for the how-to... That's going to help a whole lot!

no I havent gotten into actually cooking I honestly prefer to theme. I figure ill leave the cooking up to people smarter then me lol that have more time. that and I know that its a whole lot easier to cook if you run linux and I have no clue when it comes to linux.
im more than happy to help with anything theme wise though. Just let me know what you need.

Question about the frame-resp.apk from the X10 leak

I tried to bake my own rom, but ti didn't work. My question is, can I just push the apk. to the phone? Or is it tied to possibly to something else and will not work?

isn't the X10 based on 1.6?? I doubt it wud ever work on the 2.0, let alone the 2.1

Didn't know that. Thanks.

of course it can work. the dump needs to be ported first, u can't just push .apk's.. they run on a highly customized framework that is all tied together and inter-related much like HTC sense.

Which is why I asked.

but, you should be able to pull most of the .pngs out of the x10 framework and port it into a theme for 2.0/2.1...
got a link to the x10 apk?

I would like to get theses png too... I search for the launcher png to make my own theme.
Do you know if they are available somewhere

Download the dump here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=658063&highlight=dump
Then extract the apks and open them in any archive manager (winrar etc) and look for PNGs in the res/drawable folder. Most system wide stuff is in /system/framework/framework-res.apk

EDIT: OK, my mistake
I downloaded the sources and not the rar file

Euhhh, I just downloaded 73Mb file of X10..
I think there is a mistake because once the file uncompressed I get this:
A directory: X10_Donut_100325_01
1 sub-dir: esheep_linux
1sub-dir: LINUX
1sub-dir: android
3 sub dir: external - kernel - system.
If I go under system, i get: core/mtd and there nothing but .c files
I think that was a wrong file a downloaded but I cannot find an other one.
Sorry, but I try my best ;-)

I found some apk but no launcher.apk.
Only launcher.odex and i could'nt unzip it.
For all the other applications, that's OK.

Hello, sorry to annoy you again with my questions...
1) I downloaded the framework and extract all.
I extracted all the files but:
SonyX10/system/app/Launcher.apk - CRC failed
Total errors: 1

OMG, i had tu unzip hundreds of files that worked pretty well and the only one I need is the only one that failed????
I'm so unlucky.
Can someone send the launcher.apk to me?

Here is the un-odexed X10 dump I have... Ready to be played with...
http://www.4shared.com/file/wA0ELkvL/X10_dump.html
Also, here is an X10 theme for CM 5.0.6 that I have been working on...
http://www.4shared.com/file/CKUM0CAj/zapmi_X10_103.html
Enjoy!

Thank you for both link that work pretty well. Thank a lot!
I found all I wanted except one thing: do you know where is the background of the "quick settings" widget?
The number one on the picture, the launcher was easy to find in the launcher.apk.

Nice work guys

I've always wondered, how were you able to change the icons for the stock arc launcher? Don't have my x10 with me now so I can't try and test it out for myself, but if you could share it'd be very much appreciated

For replacing just images you can open the apk with 7-zip or winrar (open like a folder, do not extract). You can change the extension to zip first or just right-click and choose 7-zip>Open Archive. Then navigate to res/drawable-hdpi & res/drawable-land-hdpi and drag in your replacement images. Click 'yes' on the dialog that pops up and then close the archive(apk) and rename back to apk if you changed to zip in the first step.
It's a good idea to have a copy of your image folders extracted somewhere so you can easily view the images and edit them.

Yes, of course- just the ones you want to replace.
And images ending in .9.png need decompiling/re-compiling to change properly.

Sense 3.5 HtcLocationsWidget3d fix

The one from stock ROM 2.08.401.1 have glitches of displaying, I just insert the asset file from runny. I haven't seen anyone compalining about this widget, but this is really a helpfull widget!
Enjoy!
edit: upload a new one, which is from ICS for sensation, the size will became larger.

thanks man..it works!!

Location
How do you insert the asset file? Thanks

The word insert should be corrected, sorry, I mean replace it, in windows xp above, rename the apk to .zip and double click then drag out from runny's apk, drag in to sensation's apk, or using 7-zip, right click to open the apk archive, drag and drop to replace.
There is also another glitch of HtcDialer.apk, it is the handwriting panel for Chinese, I fixed it also, not as easy of draging, it has to decompile - modify - compile. I'll upload it if somebody asking for it.

What does this widget do?? Is it like Check In to locations??

Mudhi,
I have done as instructed, it didnt work out as stated. Inserted the asset folder but i didnt work. No widget for location can be found. Any help? Im running stock 3.5final by eddyOS.

Hm... mine is working? I'm using stock ROM, if not working, talk with your ROM cook may help.
Uploaded with ImageShack.us
The apk is not modified in any other way except using apk manager to optimizing pngs, and then using a script here to repack for optimizing reasons. The assests files I use is from sensation XL (sense 3.5) or which is called ruunymede.

Maybe you can post the modified apk and ill try to replace it on my system?
