I've got a I9500 running 5.0.1 stock rom, rooted. Is there any ways to change the stock icons with something? I've got all the S6 icons in png, i want to replace my current icons with them. How? Please help
From what I can gather you could install a different launcher that supports themes and icon packs.

Yeah, I know that, but i want to use the touchwiz launcher, because i'd like to get something like the stock S6..
There are launchers that look quite a bit like tw but are not. Other than this option, i don't know how to do that.
You would need to modify the apk's with the images you want to use.

You can download the file from Deviantart and apply it with bettercut. It's like 3 steps to new icons. I don't believe there is an AOSP 2.1 icon pack that flashable right now.
awesome, thanks for the help, i really appreciate it

Rosie is the big one to remove. Short of xmc_wildchild and tbalden finding a way to get us stable AOSP/AOKP this is the best you can do.

Easiest to do this is use other launcher then stock one. You can edit icons, rename them etc. ADW launcher from market works great.
Hi all,
I've been searching for two days a way to reduce NavBar's DPI in Lollipop 5.1 Stock rom because they look too big to me. Since different people are looking for it (from what I've read), I would ask if someone that is able in this sector could kindly make a flashable zip for everyone (I really don't know how to... maybe with a guide I could try by myself).
Thanks in advance.
If you can't get that, get SoftKeyZ. Has keys of smaller size.

Thanks man but... this app only changes softkeys' dimensions not navbar's dpi... I
If no one wants to make this flashable zip this thread can be closed.
Thanks.

I've modified the navbar to 20dpi on stock 5.1 and using it without any issues.
You need to do change some variable values in framework-res and SystemUI apks as well as resizing the navbar icons.
Attaching a screenshot here to give you an idea about how it looks. Let me know if you need the flashable zips.

Thank you man! Could you explain how to change those values? I would make them 36 dpi but I wouldn't disturb you making a flashable zip...

Follow this link. It will give you a generic idea about how to resize the navbar. This tutorial is for kitkat, but the steps are more or less same. You need the latest apktool jar file and java 7 installed in your system.
Since lollipop some core things are changed most probably because of selinux and security stuff, so you need to use the manifest and meta inf files from the original apk otherwise device will boot loop.
Also you need to downsize the softkey icons in the System-UI apk, else it'll look ugly after resizing.
Finally if you lowered the dpi of your device, then resizing the navbar will increase the gap between the softkeys, some people will like that, but I prefer the keys to be as close as possible so that thumb's reach can be minimal. let me know if you want that mod too. Good luck.
Thanks man, but it looks too difficult to me... I don't know anything about decompiling, java, etc...
By the way thank you very much for spending your time answering my questions.
I'll stay on Chroma until GB is compatible with 5.1.

I was using Chroma ever since it was available for N5, but came back to stock because google maps was FC'ing continuously. Downloaded the latest chroma just yesterday night and still thinking of trying that once again to see how maps behave this time. Regarding navbar, typing the 'how to do' is much longer than modding the apk

I can make it for you, what navbar dpi you prefer? I hope you are running stock rooted.

I add myself to the discussion because on the web you can't find anything. For KitKat were available some zip file to flash via custom recovery on rooted device compatible with the stock ROM, but for Lollipop anything yet! 40 dpi would be perfect
Hi everyone, this is my modify for SystemUI, it only working on stock TW and other base ROM on Stock 5.0.1. With S6/S7 ROM port, i not have test it.
