Hi all, i have a quick question i need answering .
right, i've been searching all over the place for navbars, or rosies, or launchers etc, that arn't Launcher Pro or any other third party app. NOw i've nothing 2 threads in this section fo the forum, which make the standard 2.1 rom navbar slightly transparent. Not what i want to do is totally remake the navbar myself on photoshop etc. But i have no clue whatsoever how to do this, could anyone give me a quick, but simple step by step instruction on how to do this.
I've looked at 'how to theme' posts and threads but its all way over my head, as all i want to do is replace some of the image files for my own.
Thanks in advance, remember im a noob!!
Hey guys, could someone direct me to a tutorial or write one up for me on how to make a custom lock screen? I found a wallpaper I wanted to use and I'd like to make one that fits the theme of the wallpaper.
Thanks!
The easiest way to go about it is to simply purchase WidgetLocker and use one of the many themes that have been made for it that can be found in the Android Themes section of XDA. If you simply want to change the sliders and wallpaper for just the unlock screen you will have to edit the framework-res.apk, the files for the sliders are in the "drawable-hdpi" folder. There are tons of tutorials on how to edit framework-res.apk all over this forum and the rest of the site. I'm not sure how to go about changing the wallpaper separate from the home screen wallpaper, though I know it has been done using MetaMorph so maybe look into that. I hope you were able to get some idea of what you need to do with this! Good luck!
This is NOT my theme. This is a theme by Adrian Mignogna for Launcher Pro and ADW Launcher EX that also incorporates Desktop VisualizeR and other apps. The instructions he posted are vague at best. I'm a little lost on how to set this up, so can somebody please contribute some more detailed instructions?

It doesn't tell you at all how to set up the live wallpaper other than pointing it to a folder... need to know all the details, how many screens, sizing options for wallpapers, etc etc etc... there's very little actual info given other than the downloads and where to point the wallpaper to...
Hi all. I'm a long time lurker on the site and think I've learned a lot from everyone here but this time I really need some help.
I am working on a scrolling wallpaper theme based on a wood background using launcherpro plus. I really want to use a search widget like the one from the Eyefold ADW theme (see picture) and think I have all of the drawables from the apk but for the life of me I can't ninjamorph it or modify the quicksearch apk to get it to display properly.
I'm sure this is probably easy for a lot of people here so if anyone could give me any pointers or they're kind enough to do it for me so I can open it up and see what I was doing wrong it it would be really appreciated.
Question Icon Replacement Guide
posted this in q&a- but had no response
Hi guys Im looking for guidance, I know it's possible to break open an apk file, find the .png being used for the icon and replace it with another .png. Can someone please guide me on how to do this, where to look , what to do, framework ect, I ve used the search button - but havn't found a definitive guide - looking at changing dock icons, txt, home ect and app icons. Ive found Android Asset Studio, which can be used to reform the icons for android - but unsure on the whole process.
Can someone shove me towards a definitive, easy to follow guide or produce 1 or give me a guide on at least 1 dock icon (software needed ect, ect)
Many thanks guys
you can use desktop visualizer to change app icons

Hi,
what's in your mind? Do you want a single APK that overwrite every .png files?
Do you wanna change the icon time by time?
I can't understand!!!
In any case, if u wanna get custom icons and replace them, u can use as WORGERM wrote, desktop visualizer.
A very easy app that allows you to insert custom widgets on homescreen (u can choose how big they have to do 1x1 2x1 3x1 etc) and the possibility to change the icon (choose it from your SD card) and the application to start when click on the icon.
To get the specific icons for replacement, i sugget you to use Photoshop.
I hope to help you with this post.
Bye
