Any way to extract wallpaper from themes? - Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I like some of the wallpapers certain themes have, but want to put them on other themes. Any way to do this? Wish there was a way to select what parts of the UI you want to theme.

A few theming questions

Hello,
first of all I love the Desire Rom by Paul. I only want to modify the "taskbar" graphics at the bottom of the display. Do you know in which .apk I will find them?
Do you already knwo where i can find the wallpapers in the rom, f.eg. the blue travel wallpaper?
Thanks and regards
donner
framework-res.apk for the notification bar, and alot of other stuff is in there aswell. Try making a morph to start with, it's alot easier. You can even download someone elses, open all the files and if you have a little bit of computer knowlege teach yourself from there.
wallpaper
and where are the wallpapers? they are not in the framework-res.apk
If you're looking for the graphics on the bottom on sense these are located in a seperate .apk on all the desire roms i've seen that is next to the framework-res.apk normally called something like com.htc.desire or something similar
Isn't it rosie.apk?
Most of HTC's stuff is in rosie.apk
Definitely go for a metamorph theme.
Metamorph allows you to specify only a few PNGs, XMLs etc that will be updated within the targeted apk.
On NON-Desire roms, wallpapers are in the launcher.
So yeah, maybe Rosie.apk

Gloss Icons pack

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=733702
Can someone tell me how to change icon packs? I would love to have these icons, but I have no clue how to change them except for the dock in launcher pro. these would go great with black mod
You have to go into each individual apk and replace the icon with the one you want from that icon pack. Tedious, but not hard. You may need to resize the image, and you will almost definitely need to rename it to match the one in the apk...though maybe not, since that pack was actually made for android...
Have fun!
OR you could download ADW launcher and just hold down on the home screen and select custom shortcut
OR download bettercut and apply them that way

[Q] WinMo 6.5.x transparent taskbar and softbar

As title, i know a lot of people have ask, but how to have "true" transparent taskbar and softbar without using the method of matching the wallpaper ?
i'm using different wallpaper in Manila todays and tabs, so the matching wallpaper can only work in either one. Therefore asking here is there others way of doing this?
if i use wide potraits wallpaper in todays(CHT2.0), the matching wallpaper also won't work.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
WM isn't dynamically generating the images, and as far as I know, can't be made to. It's using already existing images, and so the only way to achieve a transparent effect is to match the images.
Using a plain image for the menus (like plain black) might not be the ideal solution, but might at least make the wallpaper/menus not look so out of place with each other.
o, thanks for the clarification. Which mean unless i just stick with one wallpaper, else there is no others way of making the transparent effect.
Thanks.

[Q] Editing a apk

I'd like to take a existing adw theme apk and change the dock launcher wallpaper on it. Is there any existing posts or suggestions anyone has on how to go about doing this? My intent is to have a baseline theme that I like and can revert back to frequently without having to make extensive changes whenever I change themes.
Maybe this?

How to save a theme, and switch to it easily

Hello there,
Im using a Samsung Infuse 4g, and wanted to know if there is a way to save a theme, so I can use it again later. This way I can switch between several. Now i use ADW launcher EX, and change several icons, so its custom made. I download themes, but sometimes change icons and wallpaper to my own liking. The thing is, sometimes i want a dark one, black icons, dark wallpaper, and sometimes i use colors, like green/white combo, and change my icons. Is there any app or way to save a theme, so if i want to switch from one to another, i dont have to manually change al my icons all over again?
I hope there is an easy way
many thanks for any help
I can't think of any way really. Unless you actually created a 'Theme Chooser' compatable Theme from your look so that you could switch between them.
If you are using ClockworkMod Recovery you could do a nandroid backup with each set up and just flash to whichever one you want at any given time?
It would be a nice addition to Launchers if you could save a particular set-up as a profile, wouldn't it? Perhaps if it were suggested enough somebody might take up the challenge!
