Icons for the apps are in the apks, so you need to mod each one.

It's the apks of the apps you've mentioned that you need to edit, what is it that is so difficult to grasp?

I've always wondered, how were you able to change the icons for the stock arc launcher? Don't have my x10 with me now so I can't try and test it out for myself, but if you could share it'd be very much appreciated

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.

ICONS on APP Drawer

Do you guys know how to replace the icons on the app drawer??
any way like flashing it?
thanks...
fastest way : use one of the launcher (go launcher,adw,etc) and then download the theme....
other way : decompile,change icon, compile back some apk (CMIIW)....but I never try it before, so I don't know which apk you must decompile.... sorry for that...
I'm just a nubie

thanks for the reply, though i know the launchers... it's just that i wanted to have icons alone... for the steel blue theme that has been ported for G-Fit...
probably, i have to wait more for something, for bulk changes...
You have to change the apk's icons one by one if you don't use any launchers that supports icon packs (stock launcher)

I am not sure about WinRAR....
Have you tried it?
WinRAR's Compression methods are different than that of 7-ZIP and I am not sure if you will end up with the correct compression for your modified APK file....

I use winrar too, to change the statusbar icon
Well 7zip is better than winrar and its what I use when compiling and editing apk files

if you download from here the zip http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1421126
when openend you find only filemaps with the name of an app like mms.apk
insinde is res map and another map
just place in the last map your icon rename it like thevicon in there and zip it again
but i think you will need to mod an xml file because the fit is an ldpi screen ....

first of all you have to make a complete deodexed rom
coz in odex rom you cant just change an apk having odex file with it
here i think every one is trying to deodex whole rom
if you are done with it then install rom and then
go to system/app

I tried to change background of settings application and I found that it cannot be changed through settings.apk. There is another way of doing that.
Decompile "SemcGenericUxpRes.apk" present in framework folder.
then go to
res>>drawable-hdpi>> here you will find a file named "semc_bg_tile.png">> replace that file with whatever background you want
then go to
res>>drawable-hdpi-960x540>> here you will find a file named "semc_bg_tile.png">> replace that file with whatever background you want
then go to
res>>drawable-mdpi>> here you will find a file named "semc_bg_tile.png">> replace that file with whatever background you want
Recompile "SemcGenericUxpRes.apk" and place it in framework folder.
By doing this you can create Custom Backgrounds in Settings!
Another alternative is to install Xposed Framework and the Holo Themer module.

[Q] Stock Lollipop Navigation Buttons Theme?

Hi There,
is anyone know about a theme that makes the home soft icon a circle, like on Stock Android?
I tried to create this theme but myself but everytime I download the apk to my Z3 and install it, I get the message "app not installed"
Thanks!

You have to sign apk file after compiling.
And I'm not sure it'll work without patching security check in services.jar...
Try to change what you need in one of existing themes (just change pngs for nav bar icons- portrait and landscape) and then replace META-INF and manifest xls from original theme (that will also "sign" the apk file, sign it with apktools or simply use app signer from market).
