I think that I can help you
For the volume and the brightness button, I'll do it for you.
And about how to make a theme, from 0, please read my guide about that.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/themes/guide-how-to-theme-android-app-t3777101/page4
It's not with substratum because non root users can't use it.
Therefore I need your SystemUI.apk file as well as your framework-res.apk file.
Can you share them please?

I'll tell you how to get those files, but first
I have a few questions before doing that:
1)Are you rooted ?
2)Do you have a custom recovery ?
3) Do you know how to make a backup of your phone ?
I'll keep talking through this thread , so if there is someone with the same question, he'll get the answer without asking ?

Great, to proceed, please give me you framework-res.apk file and your SystemUI.apk file.
You have to install a root file explorer (I would advice MiXplorer that you can get on XDA Labs or APKMirror )
With the root file explorer, go to the root folder and browse to :
/system/priv-app/SystemUI and copy/paste every file in this folder to your documents folder
Then browse to /system/framework and copy/paste the framework-res.apk file to your documents folder.
Share those files with Dropbox or something other services

For sure I'll tell you the way, but if you're just a beginner, you'll be lost between the tone of files inside the SystemUI.
I need those files in order to point you the good line to modify (I'm making a tutorial on how to do it, I'll release it soon).
This research job is hard and you need to understand the xml code to be able to search for the files.
Here are my plans to make you improve and get some experience with what we call theming:
First I'll indicate you what to modify in the APK file, and I'll teach you how to use a tool called apktool (I assume you don't know what it is).
Then I'll point you some more advanced guides I made and that others users made that will allows you to face any modifications you want to do to your UI
Finally I'll release the guide on how to search for lines to modify and you'll be able to do pretty much everything you want (you'll always find something a bit difficult but that's how to improve.

Great, thanks.
And one last question do you know how to use apktool ( a command line tool ) ?
I'll work on your thing and as soon as I have the solution I'll make you a guide on how to do that, as well as I'll give you the modified APK in case you don't get that working out successfully.
And also, before I forget:
Which colors do you want for your brightness and volume slider and which Icon for the brightness slider ?
Send me the pictures and the colors you want to add (if you have an rgb color code or something that would be great)

Unfortunately I'm not able to record due to my small config, but I'll try to be as clear as possible.
And I saw that your ROM is odexed, so I'll need to compress and send me every file that you find on /system/framework/arm64
I need every file from this folder.

Hi there, I'm sorry to tell you that but we can't actually theme huawei stock rom.
When I wanted to decompile your systemUI.apk file, apktool (the tool to use when you want to decompile an apk) gave me an error. I looked into it and it turn out that it was a known problem coming from huawei itself.
Here the explanation from the owner of apktool:
https://github.com/iBotPeaches/Apktool/issues/1445
I still wanted to find a way but I found this thread, that confirms that we can't actually edit xml file from the huawei stock rom. But it gives you a tons of alternative, I think you'll learn more there :
https://forum.xda-developers.com/huawei-p9lite/how-to/how-to-edit-huaweis-apks-t3627071
Sorry for that again, have a good day

I have only looked at the pictures, I like it alot but is there a way you can make a raw file of it so i can edit it to have the lockscreen of my choice? or is there a way to still do that?
Also you should add Better keyboard to it and use DEEP BLUE theme it would go perfect with it. I have the .apks if you would like to do this.

use something like 7zip. download the zip file. open up file with 7zip. /system has the app files
/framework has the core sytem files. ull mainly work with htcresources.apk and framwork res. apk or something like that. click on the apk u want to look into. find the res file in there and copy it to desktop or a file on computer. open that res file up to see thumbnails of file. do ur editing. be careful with .9 files(stretchable files). they r tricky. read up on how to edit those. once ur done doing edits...either drag and drop or compy files back to the zip/res file that is open in 7zip. close down 7zip.
download fresh prekitchen select tools then sign zip. choose the zip file u edited. rename it then create file. in order to do this u have to down load JDK and JRE (java development kit and java runtime enviroment). google the two or look in some of the stickys to find the website to download. install those two files then u should be able to sign the zip and that makes it able to be flashed through recovery. I would download and install both files. some people will tell u by installing JDK that JRE is automatically installed but it wasnt for me and whats it gonna hurt.
good luck.

MAKE UR OWN DIALER ​
hi frndz i was for long thinking how to simplify making ur own dialer on the go, so after help from Henk (team-member) i made smthing that might interest all.
Ok so lets get to steps.
1. Make sure u have sdk installed.
2. Download the cdt.rar from HERE.
3. Extract the zip and open it, you will find 5 folders.
4. The folder update dialer is one containing the images of buttons and the folder update res contains a single image of dialer background.
5. Edit the images as you like without changing the size and name.
6. connect the fone and run cdt_extreme.bat file.
7. Once done and fone rebooted u can see ur creativity.
8. For example i used following three files
-> As dialer bg
-> When u press dialer button it turns like this.
-> Left this transparent to generate max effect.
here is after what i got mixing the files above
9. plz plz plz i this has made u happy hit thnx button. and i wanna thank henk for his awsome help.
10. Dt forget to share ur creativity
Critical update : Copy the attached two files and place them in CDT\UpdateRes\res\drawable-hdpi folde. Now u can also mod the call button. Cheerz.
MOD SHIFTED : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1261877
Common FAQ of MODS
Q. Will the mods use more batt and phone resources?
Ans. All my mods are made of files already included in original rom, so the batt and phone resources are not stressed.
Q. Are the mods interdependent or individual?
Ans. For mods we play with following files
a. System ui (Status bar & signal bars).
b. Fusion (over all look).
c. Framework (Batt mods).
d. Resources (Icons).
If mod includes combination of sysui and framework then it will have both corresponding batt and signal mods. Though i have tried to make most independent.
Q. How to go back to original if i do not like the mod?
Ans. On post there is a file revert back to stock batt and statusbar, so use when you wanna get back.
Q. How to request a mod?
Ans. Simple post the pics or icons u wanna use and give me via link or mail. I will try my best to keep up the requests.

You can find it in my post here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=16158575&postcount=4
But I can't guarantee that it won't undo some of the theming in this Rom. You can try it out, bit if it does undo something in this Rom and if that's important to you, you might want to wait for lalitsehgal21 to release a version with it.

MAKE YOUR OWN APP THEMEs & SHARE (NOOB FRIENDLY)

HI FRIENDS,
I took this opportunity to make a small tutorial for my friends who would be interested in learning some basic icon/app modding.
Before you begin plz make sure you have following stuff ready
1. Winrar.
2. Paint.net (easiest editor).
3. Few icons of your choice you want to try.​
Here we go follow the steps slowly and i am sure you will never go wrong (Do remember do not follow this guide for .9 images)​
STEP 1
SELECT ANY APK YOU WANT TO MOD for EXAMPLE I HAVE CHOSEN "MyFiles.apk"
YOU MAKE A SEPARATE FOLDER THEN AS SHOWN DRAG THE APK FROM THE ORIGINAL ROM TO THE FOLDER OF YOUR CHOICE.

STEP 2
OPEN THE APK WITH WINRAR AND EXTRACT THE APK IN THE SAME FOLDER, INSIDE THE EXTRACTED FILES, YOU WILL SEE A FOLDER NAMED "RES", OPEN THAT AND IT SHOULD LOOK SMTHING LIKE BELOW
SELECT THE FILE YOU WANT TO EDIT IN "DRAWABLE-HDPI" FOLDER
I SELECTED "ICON_MYFILES" LIKE BELOW
​
STEP 3
OPEN PAINT.NET AND OPEN BOTH THE ICONS U WANT TO EDIT AND THE ONE YOU WANNA USE AS ICON
SAVE NEW ICON VIA EDIT AND MAKE SURE YOU DO NOT CHANGE THE CANVAS SIZE AND SAVE THE FILE
​
STEP 4
VARIFY THE IMAGE HAS BEEN SAVED IN SAME NAME
​
STEP 5
OPEN THE APK & EDITED IMAGE FOLDER AND DRAG THE EDITED FILES INSIDE THE APK (IN WINRAR) WITHOUT DESTROYING THE DIRECTORY STRUCTURE
​
STEP 6
I HAVE ADDED TWO BLANK ZIP FILES ONE FOR SYSTEM FILES AND ONE FOR FRAMEWORK FILE
DRAG THE APK IN SYSTEM.ZIP INSIDE SYSTEM/APP FOLDER AND FLASH
IF YOU HAVE MODDED ANY FRAMEWORK FILE THE USE FRAMEWORK.ZIP AND PUT THE MODDED FILE FRAMEWORK.ZIP/FRAMEWORK FOLDER
​
STEP 7
HERE IS THE FINAL RESULT HAVE A LOOK

[Mod/Theme/Guide] ‹§› Custom FLoaters ‹§› [All S4 Variants]

*************************************************
i know what you guys think..
WTH are Floaters??!...
well it's just a name i made up for myself..
and now let's begin with the explanation......
WARNING: This is a theme/mod but it's more of a game.
*************************************************​
Remember when Gingerbread first came?.. when we found about the Settings/about device and press android version 3x and then we will see the gingerbread with zombies thingy?... yes that's it..
With ICS they added a new feature., press the image for about 2 seconds and you will see flying Anroid sandwiches..
and now with JellyBean we now see Floating JellyBeans.... (now you know why i call them floaters.. )
these things are no secret to us all., but what MOST of us don't is that these feature is a "HIDDEN GAME" at least by my own interpretation of it..
at first look you will only see JellyBeans floating endlessly through your wallpaper and then that's it....
but if you look closely AND long enough and pay attention., (and if you're lucky)., you will see a very rare sight... you will see this floating along with the jellybeans:
and that's the "HIDDEN GAME" made by google.. find the hidden treasure amongst the multi-colored JellyBeans..
And what most of us also don't know is you can actually customize them!.. you can change what's floating on your screen and change the hidden treasure!.. (4 images for Floaters and 1 for hidden treasure)
anything!.. even your own pic!.. ​
here are some example screenshots: (assasin's creed/ironman/my beloved Omega ROM) (taken from my note 10.1)
How to make your own Floaters/Hidden treasure:
There are many ways to do this but this is the easiest (and most noob friendly) method... no need to de/recompile or sign any zips..
7-zip REQUIRED. and Photoshop or any image editing tool that can make your image transparent
1. Download the Custom Floaters Template (attached below)
2. Right click on the zip and open archive using 7-zip
3. go to MORPH/system/app/SystemUI.apk/res/drawable-nodpi
4. you will now see 5 png's: jandycane (the hidden treasure)., and the four others (Floaters).
5. select all png's and right click/copy to - to copy outside
6. now we can make edits :good:
7. open the png file (i recommend photoshop)., erase the jellybean/jandycane..
8. now drag/drop your image (must be transparent!) (use bg eraser tool to erase your custom image's background).
9. do same for other png's
10. if you're done., open the zip template again using 7-zip and drag drop your custom images to replace existing png's
11. that's it!... flash the zip and enjoy your new hidden game!.. :good:
Still can't do it on your own?... then i'll do it for you... this is what this thread is for.. attach your 5 images in your post (as zip so thread wont be spammed with large images(for your privacy also)) and dont forget to tell me which image you want to be the hidden treasure...
P.S. - you can also use this thread to post your custom floaters screenshots.
You can flash this over any theme or rom.. nothing else will be touched aside from those 5 png's mentioned..

thank you, it looks really good. But if I want to make my own floating compression ... which I have to choose? No, normal or strong? Unfortunately I have a PC and do anything with my s3 (zArchiver)

sorry mate i didn't get you... you're asking how to make a flashable zip using your S3?.. that wouldn't work coz you have to sign the zip... it's possible if there's an app that can sign zips.. that's why in my guide it's the 7-zip drag/drop method so users won't have to do any signing..
No, I do not want to own ZIP. I thought I could unpack your zip, share my pictures from your pack and the zip again. Or what do you think? I understand your instructions correctly and not as the Google translator does not work so well: (

ok let's just do this instead...
post here the images you want for your own custom floaters., and i'll make them for you... so you just have to flash them...
Thank you for your offer, but at the time I still do not know exactly what I want. Maybe a mix of Omega, JellyBean, ParanoidAndroid and s3 "s", but I did not get any pictures ... I'll download ParanoidAndroid night times today, from there take a picture tomorrow and then let you get all the images, if it's okay is!

Hi ...
Sorry, I have not reported me, but my s3 is broken - it only works in the "factory mode": (.
Now I have the s4 and I've found a way how I gets on my apk's and flashable zips can create / edit, but I have a problem:
I want floating-paranoid-jellybeans, of the pa-Rom, but I can not find them easily.
I go to the folder where the images are, but all I see are normal jellebeans without the grin.
How is that possible?
Please, can you help me?
Hello,i got the S3 and now the S4,but i really have to say,that i never had the idea to press at the picture for 2 seconds.
A really good "hidden game"

oh bad news my friend... and good news at the same time..
sorry but i'm not that familiar with PA or any other non-TW roms...
do you mean that PA has it's own floaters and you want to use it on your S4?...
if so can you can send me a systemui.apk and framework-res.apk of any PA rom you have in you?... i'll get the images there..
i also googled PA and they have 2 trademark icons... if you want me to use that instead I'll make it for you..

can i just use the one i see in google?... PA has 2 trademarks icons on their site... shall we use that instead?..
hey ... I'm sorry, but I really do not understand what you mean, because the translator does not work particularly well. He says, you see something on Google? What do you mean, what do you see?

[MOD][5.0] Enable Call Recording [N9005]

Hi guys! I wanted the call recording from 4.4.2 with Xposed, but since for now Xposed isn't compatible with our stock lollipop rom, I found a mod for S5 that it is compatible.
First, I recommend you to make a full backup, for emergency.
You have to make a copy of Others.xml and rename the copy to Others.xml.old for a backup. You found the file in "System/Csc/Others.xml".
Now, open Others.xml with a text editor and insert this string under "<FeatureSet>":
Code:
<CscFeature_VoiceCall_ConfigRecording>RecordingAllowed</CscFeature_VoiceCall_ConfigRecording>
This is an example:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Then, change permissions to RW-RR.
Ok, save it and reboot.
After a call, you found the file in directory "Call".
I tried it with last lollipop poland firmware B6.
I am not responsible for damages that you will eventually get your device
Thank you, nino64 from http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s5/themes-apps/mod-enable-call-recording-s5-lollipop-t2968470 for the mod!
Sorry for my english, guys!

Could you please tell me how to remove this-

For remove the mod, you have to remove the line we added. O else, you can replace the file modded with your backup.
For the sound, if you want replace the current tap tap sound in the dialer, you can replace Dialer_new.ogg in System/Media/audio/ui with your file. Make sure that it has same name of original and same permissions.

Mmm... Try this apk. This is for B6 poland. Make a backup first of SecContacts_Phone_OSup.apk under System/priv-app/SecContacts_Phone_OSup/SecContacts_Phone_OSup.apk.
Then, replace it with the file in attached and reboot.
I had only replace the touch_ripple.ogg under \res\raw\ with 7zip, because for now I can't decompile/recompile it(There is a problem with apk tool and lollipop, and I don't know why).
Works

Thanks for the efforts.. The inter-related Phone & Contacts apps, both FC after being replaced by the modded file.. I guess that's because of Lollipop & apk decompiler incompatibility that you speak of..
