I am running the CM7 nightly rom on my G2X. I prefer the notification icons, and other PNGs, on the Bionix rom. What is a good way to change the framework-res.apk to get these PNG files to work correctly?
I tried to copy all PNG files from the drawable-hdpi and drawable-land-hdpi on Bionix and placed them in the same folders on the CM7 framework-res.apk. This partially worked. I also copied over AndroidManifest.xml thinking it had the info for image count and other stuff, but same results.
Any thoughts?

Try JUST copying images over and make SURE you arent accidentally adding extra images. You can also try the UOT theme kitchen for a more automated method
Images you can drag and drop. xml files you can't. You have to decompile the apk edit the xml and then recompile the apk.
Whenever I'm editing my SystemUI.apk and I replace the old one with my new one, its always FCs. Can anyone tell me how to edit the SystemUI.apk with no errors?
Sorry if this is a duplicate or in the wrong place, but i cant find any solutions.
I am having trouble recompiling the settings.apk. I decompile it without problems but the apk can't recompile unless I paste in the .arsc file from the stock apk (by unziping). The problem is that when I edit the xml, it needs to make a new .arsc file since I edited xml within the layout folder.
I am using apktool and have had no problems with other apk files. This is on the Samsung galaxy player 5.0 USA.
Another note, if I decompile, put in the resources.arsc file, and recompile, the new apk file is smaller. In addition, if I unzip the recompiled apk I can edit the xml w/o a problem. This is weird because when I unzip the stock settings.apk the xml files are un-readable.
Any Ideas about what I am doing wrong?
Sorry for being a noob.
