The how to:
1. Decompile the framework-res.apk using Android Multitool
2. navigate to the res>styles>styles.xml and with notepad++ locate <style name="Theme"> and edit these lines:
change:
Code:
<item name="colorBackground">@color/background_dark</item>
to this
Code:
<item name="colorBackground">@color/transparent</item>
then change:
Code:
<item name="windowBackground">@drawable/screen_background_dark</item>
to this one to use a png for the background:
Code:
<item name="windowBackground">@drawable/backgroundftw</item>
3. Locate <style name="Theme.Black" parent="@style/Theme">

<item name="windowBackground">@drawable/backgroundftw</item>
4. Use a 512x512 png , name it "backgroundftw" and place it in drawable-nodpi folder
5. Recompile the framework-res.apk and replace it with the old framework-res.apk in system/framework
6. Enjoy
Things required for this tutorial:
1. Android Miltitool to decompile and replace image
2. notepad++ for the coding
3. Your brain
4. You have to know where to obtain the framework-res.apk from on your phone. Just go to system/framework using root explorer
5. Make a backup of ur ROM or a flashable of your old framework-res.apk just incase if you make a mistake while coding. So that you dont encounter a bootloop
6. Find a video on youtube to learn how to compile and decompile your framework-res.apk

Thanks tarun for the tutorial.
But can you share the tutorial from scratch? Because just replacing the png on a stock framework-res won't work right?
So if you can then can you explain which xml or smali are to edited?

Thank you very much!! I did everything but didn't work for me...
1. Download .rar
2. Open vrtheme/system/framework/framework-res.apk/res/drawable-hdpi and replace that png with another one with the same size and with the same name
3. Flash in CWM
An advice, you could edit the updater-script, because when u are flashing it, it says "get prepared for ICS world" lol.

[Q][HARD] App XML Font Color Editing

Hey guys I am trying to edit the mms.apk so that all the text color is cyan. I have NinjaMorph but I don't know which xml file the text part is in. My question is where the xml file is so i can edit it.
The drawables.xml has the following values:
Code:
<item type="drawable" name="text_color">#ffffffff</item>
<item type="drawable" name="text_color_red">#ffff0000</item>
<item type="drawable" name="text_color_black">#ff000000</item>
<item type="drawable" name="text_color_offwhite">#55ffffff</item>
<item type="drawable" name="text_color_green">#ff00ff00</item>
Have you tried those?

Where is that xml file in the .apk?
Mms.apk\res\values
You have to decompile the apk for values subfolder to be viewable. When compiled this along with a bunch of other stuff gets "hidden" and lumped into the resources.arsc file.

Just making sure but I edit all of the text colors to the cyan code (#00FFFF) to make all text a cyan text color right?
You have to add transparency (alpha) code to the beginning of the setting. Cyan would be:
#ff00ffff
I've never messed with the mms.apk, but I think these should be the values you need to change.

What error? I just changed all the values I listed above then recompiled perfectly. Selected yes for system apk, then yes for the error question, deleted the resources.arsc, then continued.
Also the styles.xml has the following value that might help you if the above ones don't
<item name="android:textColor">?android:textColorPrimary</item>
You could try changing the ?android....Primary to the code for your color.

What did you use to recompile?
Sent from my phone
I use APK Manager 4.9 for decompiling/recompiling. Editpad Lite for editing xml files.
I will try that version. I think I was using 5.2, but its a little glitchy. How large was your compiled apk after the delete of resources file? Mine is only 554 KB and im not sure if that is large enough.

[How-To] FIX various compile errors with common Sense 4.0 files -Update apktool 1.4.9

This guide assumes you already know how to use apktool and / or apkmanager. If you don`t, there are plenty of guides already on XDA.
Latest Sense 4.0 and apktool are not great friends. The 3 most important files framework-res.apk, com.htc.resources.apk and systemui.apk all create fatal errors, when using latest apktool 1.43 version. Apktool`s error log is always a big help to solve compile issues, but you need a bit of compile and coding experience to finally solve these. After I stumbled about many people having Sense 4.0 compile issues, I decided to post this guide. Hopefully this will encourage more guys to add mods to One S, after they might have hit a wall before.
Credits:
brut for his awesome apktool
daneshm for original apkmanager
Known issues: ATM com.htc.resources fix does not work with One X
1. Framework-res.apk
a) Since ICS apktool creates multiple plurals errors, but you can easily fix these by using a custom version of apktool. Now updated incl. latest smali baksmali properties for ICS (thx fernando)
Custom ICS apktool version - http://minus.com/mIA3OFkYq/19
b) if you get tag errors like these
anims.xml:3: error: Found tag anim where item is expected
layouts.xml:3: error: Found tag layout where item is expected
raws.xml:3: error: Found tag raw where item is expected
Replace all tags in layouts.xml in values folder with:
<item type="layout" at the front and </item> at the end
Replace all tags in anims.xml in values folder with:
<item type="anim" at the front and </item> at the end
Replace all tags in raw.xml in values folder with:
<item type="raw" at the front and </item> at the end
2. Systemui.apk
When trying to decompile systemui, you will get bad magic value errors. Solution is to decompile without classes, as long as you don`t need to edit smali code. Even if you need to do that, you can still decompile classes.dex separately with smali baksmali.
a) Use -s switch when decompiling to copy classes.dex instead of decompiling it
java -jar apktool.jar d -s systemui.apk systemui-decoded
b) If you are using apkmanager, you can just export classes.dex, then delete classes inside the apk. Then decompile, edit, compile and add classes.dex back when ready.
EDIT: with updated apktool version systemui now compiles fine incl. classes.dex
3. com.htc.resources.apk
Here you get nice layouts tag errors and public entry issues. Again there`s an easy fix for that.
a) Replace all tags in layouts.xml in values folder with:
<item type="layout" at the front and </item> at the end
PHP:
<resources>
<item type="layout" name="htc_list_item_imageicon_text">@layout/zzzz_htc_list_item_imageicon_text</item>
<item type="layout" name="pin_keyboard">@layout/zzzz_pin_keyboard</item>
<item type="layout" name="zero_dummy_layout">@layout/alert_dialog</item>
<item type="layout" name="htc_list_item_2text_2stamp">@layout/zzzz_htc_list_item_2text_2stamp</item>
<item type="layout" name="htc_list_item_2text_bright">@layout/zzzz_htc_list_item_2text_bright</item>
<item type="layout" name="htc_list_item_image_2text_image_bright">@layout/zzzz_htc_list_item_image_2text_image_bright</item>
<item type="layout" name="htc_list_item_imageicon_2text_2stamp">@layout/zzzz_htc_list_item_imageicon_2text_2stamp</item>
<item type="layout" name="htc_list_item_separator">@layout/zzzz_htc_list_item_separator</item>
<item type="layout" name="htc_list_item_dlna_1">false</item>
</resources>
b) Delete entry "zero_dummy_dimen" in public.xml - it will be created correctly again during compile
In case you still have issues, here is my apkmanager build environment, that works fine with all these fixes.

Hex editing solution for latest com.htc - thx to tbonanno231 - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=32222697&postcount=112
Latest apktool version 1.4.9 from ibotpeaches
Big thx to ibotpeaches for the tremendous follow up on apktool
Fixes plural errors
Fixes item tag errors
Fixes bad magic value errors
Adds ICS smali properties (compared to latest official version from brutall)
Fixes unknown folder issues (only with patched aapt.exe)
Download apktool 1.4.9:

Download patched aapt.exe

c) Workaround for One X ROM´s
Since many of you guys might only be in need to decompile all the .9`s in com.htc.resources, there is a workaround that allows you to compile these.
Decompile with:
1. java -jar apktool.jar d --keep-broken-res com.htc.resources.apk com.htc.resources-decoded
This ignores all errors and decompiles the apk incl. all patched pngs.
2. Make your changes and copy the changed png`s in any given decompiled apk (I use calendarprovider.apk for this task, very slim apk, compiles fast...) and compile them
Updated with new custom apktool version, that includes latest smali baksmali properties to properly decompile ICS Java code.
Updated with new section b), that explains how to fix tag errors with latest 1.78 framework-res.apk
After trying this method.....it compiles framework-res 100% with absolutely NO issues. Thanks a million!!! I'm pretty sure everything else works....
Now I guess I'll try and work and see if I can find out how integrated in the framework WiFi calling is in the T-Mobile One S build in hopes we can get it working on any One S ROM, US or EU based....
Any ideas would help! lol
You can PM chrisch1974 from Virtuous team, he is already working on this. Maybe your combined efforts help.

Really appreciate this man! Exactly what I've been waiting for. The apktool.jar seems to be working fine, but the apk manager build environment won't compile .apks correctly for me. Is it supposed to be working straight out of the box?
Edit: Has anyone successfully edited colors.xml in Camera.apk without breaking the video recording function? Seems to be impossible for me.
Edit 2: Has anyone successfully edited colors.xml in Contacts.apk without breaking it?
I tried HTCContacts and resources like colors and styles are fine, it did not break anything on the phone.
First of all great work.

Have you spelled the name of your compiled apk correctly? Once I had like four systemuis in there, with variations of capital/ non-capital letters you can check via adb:
adb shell
Cd system/app
Ls
Then you can use rm commands to remove the apks there and push your modded one
