Hello Friends,
I'm going to share a simple way to theme your dialer screen(Change Its Background) without using PC.
Requirements:-
Your A110 For Sure
And A Few Apps Installed In That They Are :
1.X-plore File Manager
2.Batch Image Converter(Optional)
(You Will Find Both Apps On Play Store)
But Hey Keep In Mind This Tutorial Is For Rooted Devices Only.
Now How To Do This :
Step-1) First Of All Open X-plore.
1.1)Press Menu Button Choose Configuration In The Pop-Up Menu.
1.2)In That Menu Change The Root Access From Normal To SuperUser+Mount Writable.
Note: If Already Done Skip This Step.
Step-2)Open "Root/system/apps" .
Step-3)Look For The "Contacts.apk" File There.
Step-4)Copy That File Somewhere In The SD Card.
Step-5)Now Move To The Location In The SD Card Where You Pasted The "Contacts.apk" .
Step-6)Now Touch & Hold The File For A While & A Drop Down Menu Will Appear, From That Menu Choose The Option "Open Apk As Zip" .
Step-7)Now The "Contacts.apk" Will Open As A Zip File & A List Of A Few Folders And Files Will Be Shown Below.
Step-8)In The Folders There Will Be A Folder Named "res" Open That Folder, Again A List Of Folders Will Appear, Select "drawable-nodpi" Folder From Them.
Step-9)In That Folder There Will Be A File Named As "background_dial_holo_dark.png"
Now Replace This File With Any File Of Your Choice.
Note:- The New File Should Be Renamed As "background_dial_holo_dark" & Should Have The Extension As ".png" And Its Resolution Would Be Same As That Of The Original File (480x854 In Most Cases).
You Can Download A ".png" File From Internet, But If You Are Not Able To Find Any File With That Extension And Resolution, Then Use "Batch Image Converter to Convert Any Image File To A ".png" File.
Step-10)When You Are Done, Once Again Touch And Hold On The "Contacts.apk" (The Same File You Are Working On) And From The Drop Down Menu Choose"Zip Back To Apk".
Step-11)Now Place Your Modified "Contacts.apk" File In "Root/system/apps" After Deleting Original "Contacts.apk" From There (Make A Backup Of The Original App In Case You Need That).
Step-12)Now Set The Permissions Of This (New/Modified) "Contacts.apk" As rw-r--r--. (By Touching & Holding The File & Selecting "Permissions" From The Drop Down Menu When You Are In Root/sytem/apps).
Done.
Reboot Your Phone Now !!!
And See The New Dialer.
Hit Thanks If You Find It Helpful.
