[THEMING -Basic] - Easy Way to EDIT SystemUI.apk/Apps Background

Hi there! Just wanna share..
Just a basic background on how to theme your ROMS. - ofcourse, give thanks to the developer of your ROMs! .
I made this thread for those users who have personal wishes for their Phones. Ofcourse, ROM developers cannot please all of its users. so just make your own and be happy!.
I just made it easy for easy understanding and for the newbies.
Tried so many times and tested
I've already tried editing the systemUI.apk of different ROMs.
Here's what I did :
FIRST : Download 7zip to open the archived apk. - that's free.
Extracting first the Zip File..
(make sure you copy the original before extracting it for back up)
1. Download the ROM.zip and extract it to your PC.
2. Go to \system\app\SystemUI.apk\res\drawable-ldpi/Mdpi/hdpi
3. View the PNG files you wanted to change and make sure to remember its' file name.
4. After editing/changing the file/image you wanted, you can save it anywhere from your PC, let's say on your Desktop.
- Make sure that the file name still remains as is..
*After you're done editing, updating the PNG files you wish to change, follow this steps to update the zip file :
NOTE : You can apply transparency by editing the PNG file to photoshop by reducing the opacity of the image
1. Go to the original ZIP file of ROM.Zip from your PC
2. Right Click the folder and select 7 ZIP -->> open archive
3. Close all of windows/Browers (or minimize)
4. Go to \system\app\SystemUI.apk\res\drawable-ldpi/mdpi/hdpi and it will open a new window of 7zip showing the files inside the zip.
5. Now, given your edited PNG files or downloaded png files (assuming that files are located in your desktop). - Click and simply DRAG the file(s) from your desktop to \system\app\SystemUI.apk\res\drawable-ldpi\ mdpi/hdpi
6. It will ask you to confirm the action for it will replace the existing PNG file that you're trying to change.
7. Make sure that the file name of the one you edited/downloaded are THE SAME. -
8. After dragging and replacing the files you wanted, then you're good to go!
9. Close the 7zip window and that's it!.
You can now install the .zip by copying the UPDATED zip file to your SD Card.
(Note: Make sure to copy the updated one, not the backed up one)
Install the zip file from the original thread's instructions and reboot twice.
After that, you have now a customized systemUI.apk.
For those who do not want to reinstall the whole package.. follow these steps:
1. I assumed that you have the zip file of your ROM.
2. Extract it and go to \system\app\
3. Separate the SystemUi.apk - put it on your desktop. create a back up,
Right Click SystemUi.apk and select 7 ZIP -->> extract here - just to view the files you wanted to change.
Just go the folder and search for the PNG files.
4. Right Click SystemUi.apk and select 7 ZIP -->> open archive.
5. Go to \res\drawable-ldpi/mdpi/hdpi
6. Click and simply DRAG the PNG file(s) from your desktop to \res\drawable-ldpi/mdpi/hdpi
7. It will ask you to confirm the action for it will replace the existing PNG file that you're trying to change.
8. Make sure that the file name of the one you edited/downloaded are THE SAME. -
9. After dragging and replacing the files you wanted, then you're good to go!
APPLYING :
1. Download and install rootexplorer.apk
2. Download the png files you wanted to update.
3. Copy and paste the NEW SystemUi.apk that you have updated/Edited to your SD card.
4. Open root explorer in your galaxy y then go and tap MOUNT R/W.
5. Go to \SDCard and go to new SystemUI.apk that you have updated.
6. Long press the file and select copy
7. Press back and go to \system\app - tap MOUNT R/W at the top.
8. Paste the new SystemUI.apk from there.
(Note : You will encounter a lot of force closes for the exixsting systemui is currently being used by your phone. - just ignore it a lot and scroll down to look for the new SystemUI.apk.
9. Once you get there, long press on it and select permissions:
from the pop up, make the checked one like this :
•___•____ •
•___ .____.
•___ .____.
where Dots are the checked one - Bigger dots
After encountering a lot of force closes, then reboot the phone and that's it!
(Force Closes are normal, DON't PANIC - logically, you are currently using your systemUI.apk so just ignore it)
NOTE : You can also apply the same steps in editing system files apps, just edit the .png files and locate it using 7zip(when you already opened it). Have a little LOGIC on how to edit system app background - same process. just different apk files and directory .

This is only a tutorial.
But services.jar in the rar file I uploaded above already has all the UPSM codes.
All the tutorial and codes below (EN)

Forgive me if it's irrelevant, but i have asked nearly every modder around to see if this issue persists, im doubting that sammy screwed up thinking we would never touch things up to that point...
Basically, if you remove sfinder/quick connect bar and the brightness adjustment, the notification drawer screws up...LIKE THIS
Not only is that specific area screwed up, the first notification that habitats that space is not swipeable...
in Sammy 5.0, the brightness bar can be removed and you can reproduce it very easily, where as Sammy 5.0.1 you cannot hide the brightness bar any more...
i think a lot of devs ran in to this, but they substituted with the 3minit quick launcher, which is annoying as well.

@amk19 Big question: how did you prevent S Health crashing when you enable UPSM??

Then You will have to download x-plore apk and any root explorer i use solid explorer.
after that open the root explorer and go to system/framework and scroll down and select framework res.apk and copy it to internal storage then go to x-plore and press on three dots and press on configuration and press on root access and select last option then select the option for opening apk as zip.
after that go back and select framework res and go to res folder the scroll down the folder that named (drawable-xxxhdpi-v4) and scroll down until you see the old icons of power menu then swipe from right to left to see another window and open the folder you downloaded and rename each icon to be same like in framework res then copy each icon and then choose overwrite and do this for all icons.
After finishing changing icons close x-plore and go to root explorer and replace the original aom with the one you modded in system/framework and give prem for the apk (rwrr) then reboot.
Enjoy

These icons are located in system ui apk
First you will take the framework res.apk from system/framework and copy it to your pc then install it using advanced apk tool then copy system ui to your pc and decompile it. After you decompiled it go to drawable-xxxhdpi-v4 there you will find the icons.

Thanks for share:good:

How To Modify Themes From Theme Store For S6/Note5 Roms.

Hello again everybody!
So today I have a way for you to modify themes that are from official samsung theme Store, the method is hard and it does take a lot of time so bare with me.
First of all you will need a rooted device, obviously lol
Also you will need to have, root explorer and xploer. Now for the stepes:
1- Open root explorer and go to Data > App
2- You will see many many folders for the theme, in my case I will modify something in the home screen so the folder should have your theme name and then home and the end like this ( minuhome.FranceParis.home-1 )
3- Open the folder you will find an apk called base.apk
3- copy that apk and paste To somewhere else
4- Open explore and find the copied Base.apk
5- modify the things you want, for an example I changed the folder Look, I took a folder icon, renamed it To .qmg instead of .jpg then renamed that icon exactly like the folder icon For the theme, then deleted That old One and replaced it with the new one. ( do the same with any icon you want in any base.apk)
6- Open root explorer, take the new modified base.apk and replace it with the old one, set permissions And then reboot.
If it didn't work On the first time then apply the theme then apply another theme And then apply the theme again.
This may not be the best way, but it's the only way to modify them so far.
Do not copy my method on any place without my permission!! Thank you.
Hit Thanks if you liked it!

Thank you for the tutorial ��

How to modify only wallpaper and other images in theme

Go to the same place, find a folder named your theme and then wallpaper like this ( minuhome.FranceParis.wallpaper ) you will find an apk inside called base.apk go inside, then go inside res And then you will find 3 wallpapers, one for homescreen one for lockscreen, one for Sview cover.

I know that as I have done that Before. ..But what about the settings page,contacts page And other pages wallpaper...How to change them...bcoz for changing wallpapers of homescreen,lockscreen and s-view we don't have to modify an apk we can simply change it Through settings...

You will find other folders but instead of having wallpaper at the end, you will see contacts, settings, home...etc

Hello MrHollywood, looks like no one has posted here for a while but I'll give it a shot and hope for a reply/help. Your instructions are great, I've been wanting to know how to do this since my Galaxy S6.....I'm now onto an S8, rooted and rockin' an altered theme thanks to you! I have been able to use another themes icon pack with success, however when I use another theme's "InCallUI" (accept, reject, hangup icons in phone dialer) I cannot get them to stick. They will stay for a duration then default back to the Samsung goofy cartoon icons. I know that restarting phone triggers the reset but it also randomly triggers without restart. I can get them back by applying another theme then re-applying my theme....but a bit of a pain to have to do everytime!
What I have done, as per your instructions, is taken the "InCallUI.apk" out of theme's "base.apk", edited it and replaced. I have also placed that same edited InCallUI.apk into; Data > Overlays > Style > mytheme folder, then changed permissions to "rwx r-- r-w". I use these permission because all the other apk's in this folder use them.
Any advise or corrections in what I'm doing would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance.
