dont think it is possible if you aren't rooted. If you are rooted open up the update.zip file you are using as your rom using 7-zip, go to where framework drawable folder is. Open status bar and change its colour, drop it back in and resign app. There are instructions how to do this in themes section of Dream.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=471586 I use post number 6 the way i do it.
I'm using the Vodafone rom... I don't think I can get my update.zip from that? I rooted my device with haykuro's stuff in this tutorial.

I want to keep my Dutch XT9 so I can't flash anything else but smartphone france or my stock vodafone...
all the drawables should be in the root-me rom. open it and have a look for them.
But if they aren't I will brick my device by flashing a wrong framework...
no you wont. All you do is open it and drop in the .pngs you want, then resign it. they will be there in the rom- if not look at one of the other roms- Rogers, or daldroid will have them.
If it does go in to boot loop reboot into recovery and flash the last working rom you have until you figure out what went wrong. The only thing you are changing is the pngs. you shouldnt go intoa bootloop doing this- i have done a heap of theming for myself for the G1 and each time i got a boot loop it was cos i was playing around with services.jar and xml files. each time i just rebooted into recovery and reflashed previous working rom.
The thing is, I don't know which ROM I have... I have rooted my magic by using the android-dls tutorial with haykuro's stuff. There are still some vodafone relics left. I still have the vodafone shortcut, and i still have support for Dutch XT9.

I haven't made a Nandroid backup and I don't know how to make a backup either so... There is only one alternative, flashing Smartphone France firmware, it has Dutch support. I wouldn't mind trying out that one but that'll be the first time that I flash firmware onto my Magic so I'd like some guidance on MSN with that
Drawer
Im looking for the application drawer button in the res folder that is inside framework... found the status/notification bar and all icons but can't seem to find the app drawer button... i want to change it to a darker grey and make the notification bar black...
the app drawers are in launcher.apk
Easiest/safest way of changing the graphics I have found was to:
1. Connect your phone via USB and make sure you have the drivers installed
2. do adb remount
3. Do a adb pull on /system/framework/framework-res.apk for example
4. Open the apk with something like winrar etc
5. Locate the png files you want to change and extract them
6. make modifications to the files
7. pop back to the apk
8. do an adb push of the file back to the device
I've done this with fairly few apk's such as the launcher.apk and framework-res.apk and never had to resign the file =o)
The advantage is that you are using the file from your phone that you know works =o)) certain apk's don't even need a restart such as the Launcher.apk, I did alot of modding with the app drawer without ever needing to restart the phone.
This is good for changing the images but things like changing the clock color is ALOT harder, it requires you to edit the services.jar file with a hex editor =o(
Hope this helps.

Ok, i did find the file in the launcher.apk, i edited it and all the other files and now need to resign in linux... was looking for the SignApk.jar in the SDK and didn't find it... also tried JF's testsign.jar and didnt work... can anyone point me in the right direction so i can resign the file using test keys in linux.
Thanks,
If you just changed the png's you shouldn't have to resign it

What about the hour and date font in the status bar... if i change the notification area to black it wont automatically switch to white text... do you know where i can find the parameters to change it?
Some of the text like notification texts etc are held in framework-res.apk xml files in the drawable folder if I remember correctly.
The clock is the difficult one as it is inside services.jar file, its a serious pain in the back side, the dream forum has more info about it but it involves opening up files in hex editor and changing the hex code directly there
I'll be having a look at this and see if I can make step by step guide of this but it is seriously a pain!
Any idea which XML's in framework-re.apk (or other location) hold the various notification font colour(s)?? I can't seem to find it.
Ok, so this hasn't really been a problem for me before since I couldn't use the samsung music player at all since it wouldn't sort by artist. However, now that I'm using JM6, it is letting me sort by artist. I really like the widget on the lock screen and on the pull down notification bar, so I'd like to use music player of Mixzing.
The problem is, on both of the widgets the background is an ugly purple color. Why would they do this? Ew. Is there any way to change the background color of these widgets? If I could do that, I would be as close to 100% happy with this phone that I've ever been.
Edit: Nevermind. I got it.
Care to share what you did? I didn't see anything in the settings. My ultimate goal would be to have the widget with a transparent background.

You could do that. The files you need to change are located in the twframework and framework apk's. They are in system/framework, but I just used the twframework file from here. I don't remember the names of the files I changed (sorry). I just searched for music or background or bg in the drawable-hdpi folder of the apk's and when I found the ones I wanted to change, (really the only purple ones) I changed the color to something else. To make it transparent just replace the file (keep the same name) with a transparent .png file.
The twframework file can just be edited and then copied back over the original, but the framework apk caused a lot of force closes on me when I tried that. So I just edited the files inside the circle clock.zip file and then ran the .zip file and it applied the changes for me without any problems.
I also changed the ugly pink icon to something that looks like a real cd in the background with an orange music note on top. Looks a billion times better.
I apologize that I can't be more technical with you, if you have any questions about anything shoot me a pm or post it up here.

Strange, I couldn't get this to work...here are the steps i took:
Used adb push to get the twframework-res.apk file to my PC.
Used APK Manager to unzip the APK.
Modified the purple background file (quick_panel_music_bg.9.png) to be transparent.
Used APK Manager to zip the APK using the new PNG file. (I only Zipped the APK, I did not sign it since it was a system APK and did not Zipalign it)
Dropped the APK on the root of my sdcard.
Used Busybox to copy it over the existing APK.
Rebooted.
Any ideas why this wouldn't work? I tried twice, both times the background is still purple.
Hmmm, I went back and looked at the framework-res.apk and noticed i missed a file in there with purple background, so i edited that PNG file, then used APK Manager to zip and then ADB to copy over the original.
Now my phone will boot only to the Galaxy S boot screen, then just goes black. Looks like I will need to adb the backup files back onto the phone. Can you explain how you did this using an update.zip file. That seems like maybe an easier route.
when changing the twframework file I used 7zip to open the archive without ever unzipping the file. I dragged the already edited png files into the correct directory to replace the purple ones.
For the update.zip I downloaded the .zip file for thecircle battery mod. I then put the updated png files that I wanted to replace using 7 zip again. I ran the update.zip file and everything worked.
If you are able to use metamorph (using older su version) you can download the simplistic theme, replace the res files with the ones from the stock apks then apply them in metamorph.
Hi Guys,
I'm coming from Windows Mobile 6.5 where theming was a bit different:
When I started with 6.5 I used to think the only way to change the look of my phone interface was to flash a custom rom, but then I realized I could theme individual components (6.5 theme, Taskbar, Icons, Start Menu, ect) and it turned out to be pretty easy.
With Android I'm begining to think the opposite exists, is it basically true that in order for me to change the colors of the taskbar, or menus, taskbar icons - I have to use a custom rom?
I have been reading over these threads for the past three days and I have learned a lot, but I'm still confused...
I used to do M2D themes and change the xml and such, but when I read the Android theming guides ALL of it seems foreign to me...does't seem like I can just swap out pngs for pngs I made in Photoshop Am I making this seem more difficult than it is?
Are there individual themes for my taskbar, dialer, ect (not roms)? And if so can a former Windows Phone user explain them in comparison to installing a cab?
I know I have a ton of questions so any help at all would be appreciated
Thanks

There are MANY apps out there that will allow you to make these changes. Do some searches on the market and you'll find them. Do some research into rooting your phone (at your own risk) which will allow even more options.
You do not have to use a custom ROM to theme your phone, but it makes it a lot easier overall. AFAIK, you still have to have your phone rooted to theme more than icons.
To theme images, it really is just swapping out your images for the images already there as long as they contain the same dimensions, format (pretty much always .png), and name.
The .xml files are easiest to edit if you have decompiled the apk with a tool call apktool, because then they are in readable format.
Apktool is also really great for getting .9.png's in decompiled format with the stock guidelines intact.
You can theme various different components with an app called Metamorph or Ninjamorph, otherwise, you're going to have all your different parts together.
I've been theming android for getting close to two years now, so if you would like more help, you can PM/email (david1667jones gmail) me for more specific answers.
megaman - ain't it a trip coming from WM to android? yeah...WM seems such a simpler way. especially CHT2...that is really the best modding system ever.
been experimenting for the past 2-3 weeks and have been successful. (even have a usable CM7 theme that i may post...)
so let's hash this out. maybe teach eacho other a thing or two. if i am being too basic, let me know.
apk - like a cab. tricky thing is that (i believe) if you edit an apk, you replace the entire apk. unlike a cab where you can replace 1 single file. there are theme programs (metamorph - haven't used it, ADW and others that allow replacement with a single file...but they take a little work. nothing easy like cabs for WM.)
to begin you need 7zip (or winrar i hear works.) this will allow you to open apks, replace files and restore them in seconds:
http://www.7-zip.org/
i assume your rom is rooted (i really don't understand the term, but it allows freedom to mod your phone. i am using an HD2 - WM phone - running nand android so by default my phone is rooted.)
let's explore - take any apk and open it with 7zip. you will see 3 files (this is off of memory as i am at work right now.) open them and look around. ((want to find your installed apks and back them up? search market for Astro. (settings> backup and save your apks to your sd card)))
under res you will see drawable folders - this is the jackpot. in there you will see your images. there is a lot of redundancy in apks. the trick is finding the right image. try changing some, etc. this is the most basic of theming.
before moving on to xmls, etc (which there are quite good guides for this) just try the above. when you replace the files move up the folder hierarchy and it will ask you something about saving/restoring - cilck yes. the apk is now modded.
install the apk and see the changes.
however, if you are editing the core apks - system and framework-res, we will need to talk about how to do that (i use clockworkmod flashing...easy to do.)
let me know if this helps.
Thank you guys so much for your knowledge!
I do have my phone rooted and I have bootloader installed
The one reason I thought that I had to download a "ROM" is because I keep reading about having to be deodexed in order to modify...and I was underthe impression that most custom roms provide this deodexing?
on to APK's...I do have 7Zip and I have opened some up and found where the graphics are...now I am actually extracting the apk so I can manually go through each folder and see whats there including graphics...there does seem to be another way of opening the APK with 7Zip and not actually extracting it, but I don't thing I can actually see the image previews this way. >>>so I extract, change my desired images, re-zip and change the file extention back to .apk - BUT then I read about signing APK's? ...and signing zips?
After some researching I found a thread in which someone posted something like they make a copy of there current ROM "theme?" and then copy it in zip form on to their PC where they goe through all of the desired APKs and then Zip it back together and install it from the screen that you get to after holding the power button and home (recovery screen maybe?) <<< Anyway is this possible? This seem most like what we did in windows phone...but again I think where I'm getting caught up is the signing aspect...I've seen auto signers, but I feel like the ones I've seen were only for XP and I have Windows 7.
Woo... ok wrote a lot there - if you have anytime to elaborate on anything, I'd be happy to hear.
...and jsmccabe - that HD2 is one awesome device...I remember everybody asking if Windows 7 would everbe available and now you guys are dual booting with WP7 and Android - AWESOME!!! (if I didnt have Verizon

- not sure what deodexed means. is your rom cm7? if so, tmobile themes is an "easy" way to make a theme.
- are you theming to share or for yourself? if the latter just replace the the files in your rom and flashe the rom. if the former, what type of rom?

- you can extract to make life easier. but when you are ready to make the changes just drag the new icons into the original apk. it will update it for you and you can install it and done.

CWM themes are pretty easy to do. i started with this, the problem is it replaces the entire apk to replace 1 image. which if you are modifying systemui or frameworks, may overwrite other things (colors that you didn't want to.) easiest thing to do....find an already established CWM theme and keeping the same structure, replace the images and flash via CWM.
let me know if you want more details...cheers and good luck!
Hey guys, I recently just got into the rooting and modding stuff here so excuse me, but im just a beginner and don't know much of what I'm doing. I've searched and searched and searched for the mods that i want, but with no luck, so I'm wondering if anyone had any free time to make some mods for me? I have a Sony xperia TL (Lt30at) and its rooted. I have CWM to flash zips so if i could get a zip made up to be able to do this, i would greatly appreciate it! okay, so this is what i was looking for. I wanted to change the statusbar background to a different image, which is the first attatchment i have. I would also like to make the chat bubbles that same image in the sms app. I also wanted to change the clock, battery, notification icons, all of that stuff on the statusbar to red instead of the stock colors, but keep all of the stock icons. Now, only two more things. If somebody could make, or point me in the direction where to find red soft keys for my phone, that would be awesome. I found some on here but none seemed to work on my phone, it just made systemui crash. Last, i wanted to change the sms background from white to the picture i have in my second attatchment. I have JB v4.1.2 with stock rom and whatnot. If anybody could do any of these things for me or point me in the direction of an already made one, i would greatly appreciate it!! Thank you very much.
I don't think you can change the nav bars background to a picture, just the color. You can however, change the softkeys. Check this thread for new ones. Or download one, make your own images, and just replace them in the zip with yours using winrar, 7zip, or even unzip and re-zip on your phone with root explorer.
As for the background image on sms... Use winrar, 7zip, or whatever and unpack the apk. Navigate to the "res" (meaning resources) folder, then into the "drawable-xhdpi" (other drawables are for other phone resolutions, we use xhdpi always). In that folder, see if you can find a background image. If not, then its probably not an image but a color code thats inside an xml file. Other than that, use another sms app such as GoSMS. Which allows custom themes/backgrounds.
Info about zips from the link above...
The SoftKey threads zips are ones that modify apk's without actually replacing them. It does it that way in case you have mods on an apk that you don't want to lose just because you want to change an image.
When you unzip one you'll normally see a few folders but the one you'll need to focus on is the "vrtheme" folder. Inside vrtheme there is a "system" folder with two folders "app" and "framework". Inside "app" is a folder "SystemUI.apk", which is the file to be modified. Inside that folder will be the layout of the original apk, excluding folders that your not modifying. If u don't understand that, try unpacking your original SystemUI.apk and you will see a ton of folder and files. But since we only need to replace specific images, only those folders are reconstructed in the SystemUI.apk folder as... "SystemUI.apk/res/drawable-xhdpi/"
If this confused you then you might have to wait until someone decides to drop what they're doing for everyone else, and help you. Which is as about as possible as you unlocking our bootloader. So ill try to help, but I'm still learning here as well. Luckily I've been a PC software programmer for over 15 years so the transition isn't as bad for me.

First, about the status bar, I haven't tried yet so I can't help
Second, about the soft keys, it's quite easy, decompile systemui (remember installing framework-res.apk and SemcGenericUxpRes.apk in apktool), go to res/drawable-xhdpi, edit the nav buttons (open in PTS and change the color to red ), then recompile the SystemUI
about the background image of sms, it use the background semc_bg_bright_tile.png in res/drawable-xhdpi of SemcGenericUxpRes.apk, but if you change this image, other apps using this background will be affected like SemcPhone T___T.
About nav background, you can edit the navigationbar.xml in SystemUI , you can search for Transparent Nav bar in this section, instead of giving the hex color, you can change it to the path of the image like /drawable-xhdpi/background.png (of course you have copied the file into editing folder). You should know some about xml editing . This is just some quick ideas, I'm quite busy so I can't help you out , good luck

Hello here is an edited version of the easyonehand.apk for the Galaxy S5. Only difference from the stock one is that now the border is black so that it saves power due to the OMLED being darker, and it makes it easier to use it at night when that white border can get distracting. This effort was inspired by this thread in the GNote III forum, so I cross-posted here: POST
1. First I used a titanium backup of the stock app to get at the APK.
2. Then I messed with the images in the apk\res\drawable-xxhdpi\ by extracting the pngs that make up the white border from the stock app.
3. I also reversed the colors on the icons and handles so they would be visible on the new black background.
4 Then I took a fresh copy of the stock APK, appended ".zip" to the apk name and opened it in winrar, I dragged and dropped the new pngs into the "\res\drawable-xxhdpi" folder
5. Then I removed the ".zip" from the modified apk name and put the new APK on my SD card
6. Then I used "X-plore File Manager" to copy the new apk (with a different name) into root/sys/app/
7. Then again I used X-Plore File Manager to change the name of the new package to the name of the stock file, in my case it was "easyonehand2.apk"
8. This replaces the old one with the new one and now when you switch to one hand mode you should get this:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.lonelycatgames.Xplore&hl=en
I think any root file manager should work for this. If we are lucky, you might be able to just install the apk over the existing one directly, but the first few times I tried that it wouldn't install. Something about a signature. So, let me know if that works. too.
This is my first attempt at such a thing, so I dunno how well it works, but on my phone, everything seems fine.
Sorry about the lack of inline images and links, This is my first post so it wont let me do that.

I think any root file manager should work for this. If we are lucky, you might be able to just install the apk over the existing one directly, but the first few times I tried that it wouldn't install. Something about a signature. So, let me know if that works. too.
This is my first attempt at such a thing, so I dunno how well it works, but on my phone, everything seems fine.
Sorry about the lack of inline images and links, This is my first post so it wont let me do that.
