Hello,
I am using CM10 with Nova launcher. There is a Ubuntu theme that includes my all time favorite wall paper, but the Ubuntu theme isn't compatible with all phones or launchers. Is there a way to pull out just a wallpaper and save it as a file on my SD so I can use it any time?
Thanks!

Open up the apk with 7zip or extract it like a zip with any archive program...then navigate to the red folder, then one of the drawable folders will have your wallpaper

Thanks for the info. I am trying to find the apk on my phone, but no luck. It's not in downloads or anything. Where does Android hide it?

Is there a way to download the APK from the store without installing it?
Or is there a way to find the APK on the phone?

I'm somewhat new to hacking and modding. And I'm reading a lot, as well as playing with my phone a lot. I happened to extract the framework-res file to my sd card.
What are all the things I could customize with playing with that file?

Anything you want. The easiest thing is editing the png so you change the system appearance. But you don't have to extract it to SD, you have to send it to your PC, decompile it (for .9.png's and xml, if just png you can extract the folder, then put the edited png's back in the apk with 7zip and push), and do whatever you want.
You will need to look for info about decompiling and pushing if you don't know yet.
So is that how themeing works?

Fonts are not in framework. They are in system/fonts, so you can go to the zip of your current ROM in the PC, open it, go to system/fonts and copy them. Then paste them into the zip of the new ROM or flash it, then push the fonts. (If you can, it will be easier doing it before flashing, with WinRAR or 7zip in computer)

You could upload the file you extracted to the uot kitchen (google it, i cannot provide links).
The site allows to create a theme for your phone and to package it in a flashable .zip

For matching the colors you can use any app that lets you choose a custom color. I used widgetsoid, chose a custom color that matched my theme and wrote down the hex value. You can then use the hex value in the uot kitchen.

Well, I took a snapshot of my homescreen. Uploaded it to a color extractor, and pulled the hex value through there. Used that hex value with UOT kitchen, and the colors still weren't the same after I flashed it...

The default wallpaper should be in the Launcher2.apk. Browse to /system/app and copy launcher2.apk to you PC and rename the apk extension to zip. Open the zip file and look in the res\drawable-xlarge-nodpi directory and you should find the wallpapers.

Here's the Thrive wallpapers I pulled from a system dump I got in this thread. I had to put them in 2 separate zip files due to the forum upload constraints as the total size of a single zip file was just over 8MB.
The wallpaper you are looking for is called luster2_a.jpg and it is in ThriveWallpaper(2of2).zip.
Reminded just me how good 'glow hex' is
im sorry, this issue my first post, huge noob question but how do i download those zip files, because it says it downloaded them but when i go to open it on my XOOM it says it cannot be opened and i have my "unknown Sources" checked in my settings so a little help please? thank you!
you have to install apps that can unpack zipped file

The primary background for this is a mesh looking, honeycomb. I love that, and would like to have a full sized version of just that background. I know for this image, it's from the thrive, but it looks like it was put together. Anyone know where I can get the primary background out of this picture, so I can use it as a background on my Xoom?

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.

Here's a apk for a 100% transparent accuweather widget. It still has the animations cloud, rain, sun and star effects so that's pretty neat. I'm pretty sure you have to be rooted to install this but then again I never tried installing it unrooted. I used ES file Explorer to install the apk into device/system/apps. Make sure to make a copy of your stock accuweather and odex file before you delete them just incase you don't like the transparent widget. Delete the stock accuweather widget and odex then replace it with the transparent accuweather apk in system apps then reboot. After reboot you will have to go back into your widgets and pull the new transparent widget back to a main page. I've never tried having the stock apk installer install the app so I don't think I would try that unless you don't mind resetting up your phone if it doesn't work. Install this at your own risk and I'm not responsible if you mess up your phone.

Did you remove the original accuwather2013 apk and odex files?
This zip I believe is for deodexed rom so if your rom still odex,
go to system/app/accuweather2013.odex, delete it.
and delete it
Just in case anyone is wondering. Yes you can flash this with ss. Just don't reboot just power the phone off and back on to avoid issues

I believe it worked on the stock TMO rom, its been along time since I ran a stock rom so I don't really remember. I know it worked on ATT stock rooted odexed rom. Make a copy of your stock accuweather and odex file just in case it doesn't work but Im sure it will work.
