[MOD] Alter CM7 Status bar icons/notification window.

I've had a look through the forums but couldn't see this posted anywhere so here goes, and apologies if this is a repeat or is in the wrong forum.. In CM7 GingerBread you can change the battery icons in the status bar using the UOT kitchen and the framework-res file. The other icons however can't be changed using this method (like they could in CM6.1 FroYo) because the other icons are in a different system file in GingerBread.
Through a lot of digging around i have found the file 'SystemUI.apk' in /system/app/ where most of the other icons are. Also in this apk are the 'battery_low_battery.png', the 'shade_bg.png' and the 'status_bar_close_on.9.png' files which can be changed to files from another Rom after any nesessary re-naming.
The battery_low_battery.png controls the pop-up displayed when the battery gets below 15% and i've changed mine to one from an earlier Rom.
The shade_bg.png is the notification window and can be changed for the one from the SuperGinger Rom for example which has an Android picture on the bottom right (and looks cool i think). There is a transparency effect to the window which may be controlled by a .xml file, i'm not sure because i'm using the SuperGinger Rom which had it as a default.
The status_bar_close_on.9 is the notification window pull-down bar and i've changed mine for the 'status_bar_close_on_cust.9.png' from the cm6.1 Rom which has a CM logo in the centre.
All these image files and loads more like signal strength, bluetooth, wi-fi, flight mode etc, etc can be found in res/drawable-mdpi/ of SystemUI.apk.
The .apk can be modified using Android Design Editor V2 (credits to it's creator) (Google search...) and be pushed back from recovery using a flashable zip or ADB (i can vouch for a flashable zip created with Update-Zip-Packager.. credits to it's creator) (again Google search...)
I hope all this will be of use to some and thanks and credits to the Rom creators, cooks and devs, to XDA Developers and all the other contributors on here.
Peace and happy tinkering.
HTC Legend.

Thanks for that info I wasn't sure which file is the notification window bg in CM7, now I know.

ICS - Little theming but doesn't work

Hello, I'm pretty noob on theming...
I have a HTC Desire with a custom ICS ROM, no problem
I want to change some status bar notification icons:
- Icon for GPS
- Icon for new mail from gmail
- Icon for new chat message
- Icon for missed call
So I extracted the apk framework-res.apk from the system/framework directory via ADB
In the apk, I replaced the files:
\res\drawable-hdpi\stat_sys_gps_on.png
\res\drawable-hdpi\stat_notify_chat.png
\res\drawable-hdpi\stat_notify_missed_call.png
\res\drawable-hdpi\stat_notify_gmail.png
with my custom icons
then I pushed back the framework-res.apk at his place
Problem: Only the GPS icon is replaced... where did i messed up ?
Best regards

Not every image will be found in the framework-res.apk so you need to pull apart a few apks to find the image you're after.

Thanks,
Oh I see... it's strange because I actualy found the images in framework-res.apk
So they are in another file too... I'm going to look for them
I someone knows the place to look for...

I don't own an HTC device so I don't know off the top of head, but Im pretty sure the other apk is called HTC resources or something.

There are lots of images in there that aren't used by the system for whatever reason, so while they may look the same, doesn't mean it's what you're looking for.

But much more rewarding to find it by yourself.

I looked into ALL the apks of the ROM and can't find others files corresponding :-/

But you're not using a theme, right? :laugh:
These icons are normally located in framework-res.apk/systemui.apk/any device specific resource file.
Do you looked into systemui? There should be at least the icons, even if they're not used.

No, I'm not using a theme, I just want to change 4 statut bar icons
And yes I looked into systemui, but the icons are not inside

The gmail icon will need to be changed in the gmail.apk have you looked in there?

missed call is in framework. make sure you are coding it right and that the file names matched.
in android.xml
Code:
<item name="drawable/stat_notify_missed_call">@drawable/stat_notify_missed_call</item>
i found the google talk chat icons in the drawable-xhdpi folder in the Talk.apk
your xml for that should be com_google_android_talk.xml
Code:
<item name="drawable/stat_notify_ongoing_audio_chat">@drawable/stat_notify_ongoing_audio_chat</item>
<item name="drawable/stat_notify_ongoing_video_chat">@drawable/stat_notify_ongoing_video_chat</item>

[THEME] RAZZ MOD - Open for all

IT WON'T HARM YOUR PHONE IN ANY WAY
But still do at your own risk.
Here we all will cooperate and design our own SYSTEMUI, MMS, FRAMEWORK-RES,etc so as to suite our own need.
I'll provide some presets under the name RAZZ MOD.
Requirements:
1. Root access
2. Pc
3. 7zip or Winrar (recommend)
4. Non android phone or SD card reader
For noobs:
It's not a big deal....you won't harm your phone.
You have to just replace some files by changing apk.
Everything is in system/apps except framework-res which is in system/framework
When you will extract the apk, put everything you download in drawable mdpi/xdpi whatever present.
You can replace the apk using any file explorer providing root access.
Reboot after replacing.
When you replace SystemUI you may get multiple force closes, don't panic. Just restart. (Or remove battery)
Note:
I won't draw any text or image regarding RAZZ cause i trust you and think you will not share it without mentioning me and I'll do the same.
Terminate the thanks button. It'll enable everyone here to happily work and find themes for you.
This is an open theme. You too can post your artwork and let others try it. This way we will get hundreds of theme as per our need. Rest will be explained later.

[GUIDE]Easiest way to Change background in Settings, Contacts, Messages.. in Xperia

Note: Your phone must be rooted to do this
I haven't tested this on any other phones. You can test it and post your results here.
Get the DefaultThemes.apk from system/app directory.
Open this apk on your pc using winrar.
Goto res/drawable-mdpi (or hdpi) folder.
Select your favourite theme (ex: blue, green.. etc)
Open the png file corresponding to that colour. If you select blue, it will be "blue_application_background.png".
Edit it according to your wish.
Then save it.
You will get a message from winrar to update the files in the archive. Press YES.
That's it!!
Now put the apk back in your phone and change the permissions to rw-r--r--
No need to restart. Goto your settings and you will see your picture on the background.
Note:
**drawable-land-mdpi folder contains the files that is being used when you are in landscape mode. You need to replace them also.
**Make sure that you are using image files according to your device's resolution.
**Replace more application background files to get different pictures for different themes.
**Use pictures with low brightness (your texts are in white colour right?)
****** Always keep a backup before testing
Hit Thanks if I helped you. It only takes 1 second

If you have any questions regarding this Post it in HERE.

Xperi S its different... there is no defaultthemes.apk

good work bro

RavinduSha, thank you very much for the tip!
I add some advice, for a full compatibility between portrait and landscape mode, the user should make same changes on res\drawable-land-mdpi or (res\drawable-land-hdpi) ( * -land- * ) where are the landscape backgrounds.
Another thing:
Files:
res\drawable-hdpi\?????_preview_focused.jpg
res\drawable-hdpi\?????_preview_normal.jpg
Are used on the preview, so the user, if have time can change those files to reflect his customized theme.

BASICS INSIDE THE APK
3 basic file types/extensions we will be dealing with most of the time
1. .xml - color codes, image redirections, are inside this file (use Notepadd++ to open such files)
2. .png - these are the images/icons we usually see on most part of the phone ui (open using photoshop/gimp and dont edit using paint or you will lose its transparency background)
3. .9.png - stretchable pngs that expand or shrink depending on the usage (these images has a black pixel boarder that needs to be preserved, or else you will be having error in compiling)
color codes (hex codes)
quick overview of color hexcodes (range - 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 A B C D E F)
#FF000000 as an example (represents black while white is #FFFFFFFF)
FF or the first two letters of the code represents its transparency 00 means full transparent while FF is opaque (im using 88 or 80 for semi transparent)
next 6 digits are the RGB color code, look at this way #FFRRGGBB
if you want solid red, use #FFFF0000, solid green #FF00FF00, solid blue #FF0000FF
just play with the color codes (im sure you have just played with it in most of the rom options)
decompiled apk
once you decompiled apk, you will noticed a folder named res (this is our main concern, we will be working with this folder all the time)
inside the res folder...
there are lots of drawable-** folder that contains all of our images (.png and .9.png),
most of the icons are located in drawable-xhdpi and drawable-hdpi,
you can also find values folder containing some xmls such as
styles.xml - this xml is where i usually make my inverts of ui (from holo.light to holo for example)
drawables.xml - some color codes were redirected here
colors.xml - some of the hex codes inside styles.xml were redirected here, most color codes inside drawable folder and color folder are also redirected here, so i can only have one place of editing when converting color codes on my color versions of themes
next is the xml folder
xmls inside this folder controls the apps being themed, you can find package names of the apps as the xmls filenames
if you will noticed, there are some xmls here having upper cases, that's why we need the modified aapt.exe (again thanks titanic_fanatic)
last is the mipmap-** folder
this folder contains all the themed launcher icons, i already redirected all my themed app's launcher icons here
file names
how do i named the images? let's put an example
go to res/xml and look for com_android_calculator2.xml
now this is the xml that controls my themed calculator, if you open up the xml via Notepad++ you will notice the original png file names being replaced by my own themed png through a line code
this line for example (this is the delete icon in calculator)
Code:
<item name="drawable/calc_clear_symbol">@drawable/calculator_calc_clear_symbol</item>
the stock/original png which is calc_clear_symbol.png under drawable-xhdpi folder
Code:
<item name="[B][COLOR="Red"]drawable/calc_clear_symbol[/COLOR][/B]">@drawable/calculator_calc_clear_symbol</item>
is now being replaced by my themed icon calculator_calc_clear_symbol.png under drawable-xhdpi folder
Code:
<item name="drawable/calc_clear_symbol">@[B][COLOR="Red"]drawable/calculator_calc_clear_symbol[/COLOR][/B]</item>
i just put a prefix calculator_ so i can easily locate where they are when modifying
**most of the themes out there uses the app's package name as their prefix
for example...
in my theme i use
Code:
<item name="drawable/calc_clear_symbol">@drawable/[B][COLOR="Red"]calculator_[/COLOR][/B]calc_clear_symbol</item>
but others and most of them use
Code:
<item name="drawable/calc_clear_symbol">@drawable/[B][COLOR="Red"]com_android_calculator2_[/COLOR][/B]calc_clear_symbol</item>
i just make it simple the way i can easily search them in my drawables folder

IT'S MODDING TIME!
i will show you some examples and what file to edit with these mods
again file names of images may vary depending on theme,
but package name under res/xml are standard on all theme
before you begin modifying, delete Public.xml in res/values folder
remove themed launcher icons
delete these two folders
res/mipmap-hdpi
res/mipmap-xhdpi
remove themed specific apps
for example you don't want my themed keyboard and prefer stock aosp keyboard look
delete the xml of the apps you want to be removed, in our example keyboard which is
com_android_inputmethod_latin.xml in res/xml folder
change background of system and dialer
prepare your custom background (make sure you have the right size as per your screen resolution)
hdpi - 480x800
xhdpi - 640x960
and name it as
contacts_background_dial_holo_dark.png and framework_background_holo_dark.png
and replaced existing backgrounds in res/drawable-nodpi
change notification background
the image for that is system_notification_panel_bg.9.png located in res/drawable-xhdpi
note that this is a .9.png, be careful in editing and preserve the black 1px boarder of it
however you can bypass the image if you want to make it the stock look or pure black look
open com_android_systemui.xml in res/xml
look for the line
Code:
<item name="drawable/notification_panel_bg">@drawable/system_notification_panel_bg</item>
you can see that it was redirected to my themed image system_notification_panel_bg.9.png
if you prefer the stock background look, just delete that entire line
if you want it to be pure black, remove the redirection to the custom image and this time redirect it to hex code instead
Code:
<item name="drawable/notification_panel_bg">#FF000000</item>
change (non connected to google server) signal back to grey
download HueSilver.apk, rightclick and open archive using 7zip
go to res/drawable-xhdpi (for phone ui only, for tablet ui, go to res/drawable-sw720dp-xhdpi)
drag these icons outside the apk and replaced it on the apk you were modifying
(dragging existing images from the apk is only applicable to .png and not to .9.png)
system_stat_sys_data_connected_1x.png
system_stat_sys_data_connected_3g.png
system_stat_sys_data_connected_4g.png
system_stat_sys_data_connected_e.png
system_stat_sys_data_connected_g.png
system_stat_sys_data_connected_h.png

just ask here and i will see if i can answer all areas, sometimes i can't remember what file/png i've changed

try to update your framework-res.apk in /other folder
replaced it with your rom's framework-res.apk (android 4.2.2)

Salamat.
How about the clock? If I want to make it the default one. Thanks

I just noticed that the signal bars are always blue (using HueLite2.8), which is weird because I've been using your theme for a couple of versions and this is the first time I notice this. You can read my specs on my signature below.
I follow the color change from grey to blue and viceversa to check if there's Internet on my phone.
Could you please tell me if I can edit this using your guide and what should I change if that's the case? It would be great if it followed the color conventions in the official version, though.
Thanks in advance, sir.

download HueSilver.apk, rightclick and open archive using 7zip
go to res/drawable-xhdpi (for phone ui only, for tablet ui, go to res/drawable-sw720dp-xhdpi)
drag these icons outside the apk and replaced it on the apk you were modifying
(dragging existing images from the apk is only applicable to .png and not to .9.png)
