Pull out the SystemUI.apk and Framework-res.apk of your from the images you need and xml file to do what you want are in there. De-compile with apk tool and do your changes then recompile it and push back to your system/app folder.

I extract file system.img from xoom2 sdk. The files are location at ~/app/. I replace all of files in /system/app/

So you removed the system.img and put it back in the other folder??

But i cant see lock screen when i start my xoom 2; but when i touch to unlock, the system display error launcher.apk. And i can check OTA, view system information... I don't understand ... :crying:

You have replaced the launcher.apk you will need to find one that is suited to your build model. Or if you can... Download a third party launcher from the market.

Help with making incremental battery work

I have all of the images in the res/drawable-hdpi file like they need to be, what's the next step? I have googled the crap out of this subject and I cannot find an answer that makes sense. I'm sorry if this is obvious but I need help.

And depending in in the rom you might have to edit 2 XML files to add the 1% settings
Sent from my A500 using Tapatalk 2

Well I think the names are right. I did hear somewhere that you have to edit the xml, but I'm not sure exactly what needs to be edited. If I can get someone to walk me through this ill definitely make a how-to for future reference.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda app-developers app

Yeah if you're trying to mod it for a TW rom you have to edit 2 xml files in res/drawable. They are:
stat_sys_battery.xml
stat_sys_battery_charge.xml
You have to change them so they read from 0-100 that way the 100% battery mod actually reads correctly. You'll see right away what needs to be changed. And make sure you have all the png's in the right folder and they are named correctly.
After that recompile and in the folder that was created when you decompiled should be a new folder called Build or something like that, the new apk is in there. Then you have to take the meta-inf folder and androidmanifest.xml from the ORIGINAL apk and copy them into the new one with 7zip or whatever you use. Zipalign and it's ready. Either push it to system/app with ADB or pack it into a flashable zip and have at it.

Some of the apps on my phone can read the xml, but when I swapped them out using ninjamorph it broke my SystemUI. After a reboot my battery Icon is gone completely. I'm guessing I'll still have to decompile and recompile.

I have the images in my res/drawable-hdmi folder already, I just haven't had time to see if I can figure out the 1% increments. If you could help that would save me time? Want a copy of my systemui? If rather you use that opposed to pulling a copy from the stock ROM seeing as I have ask the battery images and my modified 4G LTE icons already in place.

Where are apps downloaded

i downloaded Grunge Icons from the app store, but want to use them on Carbon Rom's ribbons.
MY questions is this: When i downloaded them, where were they stored? have a good file manager, but search on phone sucks!
thanks,

Are you rooted? If yes then you can find the apk at syatem root data/app folder.

Stock Dialer APK??

Anyone know which apk its the stock dialer apk?
its not phone.apk, anyone knows which one its?

Assuming you're on Android 4.x, it is in fact called Phone.apk but it is a different version. The fully stock apks can be found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1735507
Hopefully this helps.
