Disable emoticons

Does anyone knows if it's possible to disable the emotions in the default ICS messaging app? Because I really don't like them..

Believe it's in SystemUI.apk. You will have to decompile it.
I forgot the exact location, but in one of the hdmi/mdpi etc folders, you will find icons for all the emoticons of that rom. Change them to transparent ones or regular emoticons and that should do the trick.

That sucks..

My fault, I pointed you to the wrong file earlier. Just looked over again. For ICS, it is in framework-res.apk under /res/drawable-hdpi/
the files are emo_*.png
You can try dragging and dropping new emoticons in. If you have problems after doing this (like android doesn't work correctly) then it's probably because you'll have to decompile and recompile it.
I don't have time to do that for you, but you can learn very easily if you take the time to read and do it:

Pretty straightforward:
1) Open an graphics editing application on the desktop
2) erase the image
3) Use the text tool
4) Type ": )" to replace
5) Save the file
6) Put it back in the apk or compile with it and you are done.
You should try it first. It's not really that difficult..

I'll try it tonight and post wheter it worked or didn't work.

One last question, after I've editted the apk, how do I install it on my phone so the old one is removed? Just overwrite the old one?

This will sound very weird, I found all the smiley files, but the smiley I really wanted to delete isn't there...
I'm looking for the smiley that appears when you type "<3" but it just isn't there...

Feels good to know that I'm not the only one who wants to delete it!

Leave that..
First Decompile SystemUi.apk..
navigate to your values folder n then open drawables.xml..
It will look like this:
{ <resources>
<item type="drawable" name="notification_number_text_color">#ffffffff</item>
<item type="drawable" name="notification_item_background_color">#ff111111</item>
<item type="drawable" name="notification_item_background_color_pressed">#ff257390</item>

<item type="drawable" name="status_bar_background">#ff000000</item>
<item type="drawable" name="status_bar_recents_background_solid">#e5000000</item>

<item type="drawable" name="recents_callout_line">#99ffffff</item>
<item type="drawable" name="notification_item_background_legacy_color">#ffaaaaaa</item>

tried changeing color codes there too but did'nt work :|

Ahh..
I think this alternative would work..
First decompile Systemui.apk ..navigate to values n then drawable-mdpi.. then change {status_bar_expand_default.png} to your black background custom image..{let the name be same..just replace with black bg pic..}
Then res/layout/status_bar_expanded.xml ..
<FrameLayout android:id="@id/notification_panel" android:background="@drawable/status_bar_expand_default" androidaddingTop="@dimen/notification_panel_padding_top" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:layout_marginLeft="@dimen/notification_panel_margin_left" }
I think this will work..

Tried that but status_bar_expanded.xml is different also tried to change some of android:background="" codes to black but no changes on transparency

[MOD]Modded Xperia Theme Accent [ with changeable system app background color ]

MODDED XPERIA THEME ACCENT
with Changeable System app background color
Hi guys, I know after updating to Jelly Bean. I found some problem on theme. For example, when I changed theme from XPERIA into Ruby, only framework button color has changed. But, It still black background.
I have a good idea, I opened each theme apks and there's no 'semc_bg_tile' and then I resolved this to add semc_bg_tile and before that, I modded color of semc_bg_tile and I put on each of theme. I installed this. IT'S WORKING 100 %

CLICK THANKS IF YOU LIKE MY WORK !!

very nice work.:good:
I've been thinking about ways to try and improve the sony themes from just a color overlay and a wallpaper.
I'm wondering if its possible to add in the "semc_***" png's from framework-res so themes can be applied on the fly without having to flash zip files.
I might have a play tonight if i get bored.

Thanks, really useful! I'll update my theme according to your tutorial when I get time

I'm assuming you mean add extra themes instead of modifying exciting themes?
If so look for cm10 theme tutorial and follow how to package rename.
Off the top of my head,
you need to decompile and edit the Android manifest xml package name on the top line.
Then edit the res/values/strings xml to match your new package name
Then compile and sign/install.
If no body gives you a better guide, I'll do it when I get home in an hour or two.

I don´t know anything about compiling apks i just wanted to know if it was possible and may be some developer try it and share some new themes with us i really don´t have a lot of free time to do this job but if it´s possible that would be great to have may be the old xperia themes and the new ones without having to flash anything

is to necessary to do semc_bg_tile?
as I did semc_theme_bg and it did not work??
