I was working on a new Windows phone ROM project.Everything got correctly,all launchers,icons,etc.The last thing is change settings mans android to windows phone settings.
How to do that?
You theme the settings.
Decompile it and theme the images, and the colours in the colors.xml

Sorry,but i dont know how to theme settings apk
You'll have to decompile your settings and then theme it as in colour and modify the images to make it look like the windows phones settings
Ok i decompiled..Now where to go to change colours and modify images?
Colours is located in res/values/colors.xml and images are in /res and look in drawable folders.

Hello, im trying to use a gingerbread theme for fission 2.4.3. However, for some reason, the insides of the silence sliders are completely transparent and do not have the dark transparent gray of the other sliders.
I've edited the .png files and tried recompiling the theme many times, but when i get to the lockscreen the slider just doesnt move. I just cant seem to get the 9-patch process right.
In other words, i want to use the attached pngs named edit1 and edit2 in place of the original sliders, which are also attached.
any help is appreciated, thanks!

How are you trying to edit the sliders? Those are .9.png files, they need to be edited different than normal .png files, as .9.png files are stretchable....
I use apkmanger 4.9 for extracting/signing/compiling etc.... if I'm only editing .png files or replacing(not editing) .9.png files, I use Simple Tasks section...
If I'm going to edit .9.png files, I use the Advanced Task sections, as they have to be Decompiled and Compiled... you will see a difference in the .9.png files when you do a regular extract and decompile, it needs those black borders/dots to make them work right... I don't get all fancy with my editing, so I use either gimp or paint.net to edit the .png/.9.png files...
I attached the sliders that you are wanting to use.. give those a try.. since you're only replacing the .9.png and not doing any editing, you should just be able to extract the .apk, and replace the sliders....
Good luck...
Is there a way to change the colors of the wifi/data, phone signal and battery icons in the status bar? I'm currently using weapon 2.4, so I'm rooted and was wondering if it might be a simple file edit to do so. If there is an app that lets you do that, I haven't found it yet but I would love to know how they work so I can potentially assign each icon a different custom color. Thanks in advance for any help.
--UPDATE--
ok so from what i've read so far it looks like i'm going to be editing some lines in the classes.dex which i extracted from the services.jar file in the framework folder. when I open up the classes.dex with baksmali i cannot find the \com\android\server\status\StatusBarIcon.smali file .. not just in that folder but anywhere within the expanded classes.dex archive. Is StatusBarIcon.smali where I'll be able to change the color of the icons in the notification bar or am I completely off track here?
You want to change the color of the icons? They are png files in the SystemUI.apk, so either pull them out and edit them in some photo software, find icons you like and add them, use a theme, or use UOT Kitchen.
do you have the "Theme Chooser" app on your phone?
If so, you might want to check out some themes and install one of those
or use Metamorph or a zip application to make your own
and remember, always backup your rom
Just use NinjaMorph, and edit SystemUI.apk... If you're looking to make them green, check my thread in the Themes section.

I have started to make my own theme by opening apk and changing it to zip and editing png in Photoshop so far Ive changed icons, font, background and basically anything drawable but now I want to change the lock screen. How would I go about doing this? I dont see anything that resembles a lock screen in any drawable folders or anywhere else. Heres a list of the items I see from this apk that I unzipped:
assets
META_INF
res
AndroidManifest.xml
classes.dex
resources.arsc
Am I missing something?
A quick question for any advanced themers out there...
I am working on a custom theme for the AOSP Messaging application. I have successfully edited everything in the app EXCEPT for the holo background, which I would like to change. Specifically I want to make the Holo gradient disappear and instead have a solid color that I define. Is it possible to set the background of the APK without having to change the framework-res.apk? If so, how can I do it?
Thanks!

I was only able to change the background by changing the png in framework-res. That's the place I think it gets it from. It took me a while to theme the Mms.apk the way I wanted to. That was before the developers for CM made it more themer friendly in recent builds. I changed a lot of stuff around in layouts that's now located all in colors.xml.
I have tried to make the stock lockscreen on the Z1 transparent. I thought it may be as easy as changing the default wallpaper in the XperiaLockScreen.apk to a transparent .png however it seems that the app will only let you choose a .jpg (Which we know does not support transparency)
So I decompiled the app to see the xml files but I cant find anywhere where it forces the background to be a .jpg.
I tried editing a few hex colour choices to make the first 2 digits from 00 to FF to force 100% transparency but nothing changed.
Can anyone point me in the right directions please.
Attached is the .apk and the framework-res

Did you manage to do that? I have tried mods from older Xperia phones (whose APK name is UxpNxtLockScreen.apk) and it didn't work.
