You need to decompile the apk's with apk manager (need adb installed) then, in the decompiled apk, open it and go to /system/res/drawable-hdpi (or mdpi, if it's that), and look for the icon in there.

Easier way....copy those apps whose icons you want to change to your hard drive. change extensions from .apk to .zip and then go the /system/res/drawable-hdpi as mentioned above.

thanks a lot guys

@Nedooo I cannot make it work on Vista-32.
Some results of my work. So much work but a lot of fun actually. Icons come from ADW-honey comb theme.

Is Vista still alive
Don't know, but you could use APK Multi Tool, System APK doesn't need to be signed but other do
Nice job BTW

very nice screens
how did you change the battery icon in the notification bar???

Thank you, very easily. Just go to uot.dakra.lt/ and follow the guide (HOW TO).
Basically you have to: chose the mod you like (not all of them works though - I've succeeded with battery, icons:emoticons and status bar (but not power buttons), popup, fonts (but not windows animations) and upload your: framework-res.apk, SystemUI.apk, twframework-res.apk.* Kitchen will do everything for you. GO to PICKUP to receive your zip and flash it with cwm.
*You can get them with root explorer or via adb:
adb pull /system/framework/framework-res.apk
adb pull /system/framework/twframework-res.apk
adb pull /system/app/SystemUI.apk

thanks

Navigation Bar [TWEAK][CM10][Galaxy Ace Plus]

Here's the Navigation Bar that's there on the Nexus devices for your Samsung Galaxy Ace Plus (this might work on all phones. Not sure.).
Prerequisites: CM10 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=38371660 OR http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2155529) and a decent file explorer (such as root explorer) that allows you to access /system
Steps:
Step 1: Open Root Explorer
Step 2: Navigate to /system (Remeber to mount as R/W)
Step 3: Open build.prop
Step 4: Add this line of code
qemu.hw.mainkeys=0
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Step 5: Save and exit
Step 6: Reboot
If you did the above mentioned steps properly then you should have the navigation bar enabled on your device
Screenshots:

Just so you know this isn't my own work. I just thought it would be pretty neat to share it with you guys. Kudos to the guy who put this on the internet.
To remove the navigation bar from your device, delete the zero and replace it with one and then reboot your phone.
Please click the thanks button if I helped you or gave you a cool tweak for your device.

Yeah. This is the first time that I have tried playing around with the build.prop file. The screenshots that I have posted are from my device only. I removed the navigation bar by just deleting the line and rebooting.

[APP] Toolbox Enabler

Toolbox Enabler​
This very simple app is for all those who are confused or unable to follow how to enable the Toolbox feature on the leaked Lollipop rom. It is a convenience app to easily enable the Toolbox toggle in Quick Settings without going thru the process of editing xml or using sql editor. Just download below, install and grant supersu permission if required, tap the toolbox toggle and it's done. For some, you may need to restart device. Enjoy.

Thanks a lot...can we add more than 5 apps with this?

Adding more than 5 apps used to be possible on the S5 but for some reason Samsung changed somethings and it is no longer possible to add more than 5. To add more than 5, you will have to edit framework file as well as settings app. There is an awesome guide by @daxgirl on the S5 forum on how to do this or you can just use AryaMod Rom which has the feature already built-in.

Ok Thx for quick response

Thanks for this Can you share the link with the @daxgirl guide for toolbox?i can't find...

@xperiacle what is toolbox and for which phone?

Hello. Any way of adding the Menu, Home and Back keys somehow to the Toolbox? I can't remember on what rom, but I had that option at some point on 4.4.2 before switching, and it was kinda useful
Thanks in advance, and Thank you experiacle for offering us your app

One reason is the app was not able to modify the relevant tag in floating_feature.xml. The problem is that you may have busybox with no sed support. Try uninstalling busybox and reinstall it using the stericsson's busybox installer from play store as that have sed command support. or you could just manually edit floating_feature.xml and change toolbox_setting tag to true.

I'll be honest.. I have a toolbox widget in the status bar of my rooted Note 3 with a stock KitKat 4.4.4 ROM, and I have no idea what it does or how to use it.

@Albe95 i can send you my sistemui alberom v2 to modify?

Great mod Albe95 one question can you make a flashable zip with the mod only for installing? Please thanks for your time and patience

Great job Albe95, how do I enable the phone shortcut?
If I follow your instructions the dialer is only for emergency, I am looking for s6 functionality where you can open the dialer not just for emergencies and without lockscreen pattern.
Thank you

Yup, we have bombed @serajr with places where we want a Blur effect .
PS, it seems to be a bit incompatible with other themes...i've attached a screen how it looks with the Material Dark theme from Theme Store. Nevertheless i like the look anyway.
