Hello everyone I'm new on XDA please don't judge me bad but with the forum's restriction I can't answer any thread until I get 10 or more points (don't know how get them if I can't answer or publish anything with links)
My issues is weird i've followed every threads that talk about how to create themes I've made all pngs files and xml as well but when I compile it with android studio and I try to install it fails I don't know why.
I've tried also to take an already compiled apk of some themes and tried to mix them fixed xml as well and recompiled with apktool then I've uninstalled official version of the theme and tried to install modified apk but it didn't work anyway I try..
Hope that u can understand I'm Italian and a quite good knowledge of English and android world.
Thank you (hope also to get 10 points to be unrestricted user)

I'm just wanting to change up some font colors and grahics on a rom I have. I was told Eclipse was the way to go, so I set up an Android Dev machine with all the plugins and recommended tools. Now what?
Since no one is willing or able to help, could someone or a Dev be so kind to get me the correct xml file that will change the top title bar fonts to white instead of black. I will put the file in the rom and re-sign it myself.
I am by no means any good at theming, I fail pretty hard, but this might help. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=535630
Also, maybe try posting in the theme forum. Good luck.
There are different xml files for different stuff. Check out colorchange app. It works with cyanogen to change all stuff. Much easier that the xml stuff we used to have to do. Pm me if you have any specific questions.
If you search for colorchange or even posts by me you will find it. When I turn my pc on later I will post a link if required.
Thanks for the info mates (MontAlbert and bcrook). I will check out the colorchange app. One day I will find some write ups on Elclipse and android rom programming. Will let you know how the app worked out, MontAlbert.

You probably want to ask these questions in the Android dev group(s) on Google groups. The digests I get every day indicate there is a lot of activity there.

So I need help of you and I need help of the developers in learning this .................... so please post some links of sources to learn android development ............. waiting for you replies

Eclipse IDK:
For developing Android apps
if you really want to be a developer you must try to learn eclipse
APK manager or APK tool:
it is used to edit android apps
it decompiles android apps so that it's easy for us to edit them
YouTube and Google:
for tutorials to learn how to use them
hope that helps you...!!!!

Well, You can use the HTC Android Kitchen! In the kitchen, just dont let it change your updater-script to update-script.
All functions of the kitchen will not work as it is actually made for HTC phones. You can deodex your FW, add boot animation support, Change the name of the fw and Compile it!
So is there any similar tool only for samsung devices?
Nope! The HTC android Kitchen is the best option available. Most of it's features Work Man!

bad forum
When you don't get replies, don't just say xda is a bad forum.
The forum isn't the "thing" answering, it's the users. .
Anyways, I have an answer for your problem. And I know what exactly you're talking about.
The reason your "tool" shows an error when it compiles the .apk is because you made an error somewhere in the process of editing. This happens frequently, the easiest way to figure out the cause for this error is to check the error log. It shows precisely where the issue is.
I would help you out by making it for you, but there is two reasons I cannot. One - its too late here and I can't get on my PC, and Two - If we do it, you don't learn anything if you're building or cooking roms.
So what I would like you to do is, get a log of the error you're getting and perhaps I, or someone else could help you.
Also you can "bump" up your thread, read the stickies for rules on this. It'll help. Bumping the thread pushes the thread near the top of list so people see it. You already did this. But in a slightly different way.

Dear Fellows,
I'm new to CM and its just my second post, I'm kinda interested in making/modifying themes on android phones. I have some queries regarding this..
1. do i need to create a new project from scratch and build my own apk or
2. do i just decompress other's theme apk and change it way i like (is that legal or acc to rule of android, CM forums etc )
3. Can i sale themes on play store using second method ( i know they worked but if its possible, i wont do if its not or illigal)
thanx for your reply in advance
1. There are plenty guides on the Android Theme section. I have written up a updated guide to create themes from scratch with extra info on how to theme your interface. There are some that show you how to theme using pre-made apks
2. Yes you can as long it is not a paid theme. A free one then its fine, you just have to ask the original themer for permission. So they know you're using his/hers theme as a base.
3. Yes you can if you have permission
For the first,, sorry if im break rule number 6 from xda rule,, or im make wrong thread
But im here just for study,,
How i can mod game like money,ammo,faster duration, etc,,??
May someone give one guide for that??
But without IDA or anything about computer,,
I like mod anything in my android phone,,
Like extract apk, edit some .xml code, and compress again to apk,
