Eclair Icons - For Your Pleasure

Here are some icons that I ripped out of an Eclair ROM I found here on XDA. You can use them with your favorite icon editing app. Enjoy.
EDIT: Updated some icons based on some themes floating around here. I will most likely not be updating this anymore. I used these icons before I found a full theme and figured I'd post them for anyone who wanted to change some of their icons without having to flash a full theme. So, here they are.

It's a very lengthy and tedious process, but here goes:
1) Open up your ROM (with something like WinRAR) and pull all the apps from /system to somewhere like your desktop.
2) Then open the apk in winrar and find the find the icon, they're normally in the res/drawables folder.
3) Then find the icon you want to replace it with, give it the same name as the icon it's replacing, and drag it in to winrar. It should ask if you want to replace, say yes and you're done
4) Repeat for as many apps as you want.

Thanks alot man!

The easiest way to use these icons without having to change individual APKs is to use AnyCut or BetterCut. You still have to do them individually but the good thing is that My Backup Pro will save the state of those changes if you ever have to restore your home screen.
But like I said in the OP edit, I now use a theme so I no longer use these.

Thanks for your help. it's very useful.
But you are using Cyanogen 4.2.3.1, Can i use Cyanogen on my hero.

it would tell you invalid signature or some other error. these are icons, there are no .apk files in this, there is no META-INF folder, so in essence, nothing would happen.

Clear Genie Widget for 1.5 (News and Weather)

I am trying to make a clear genie-widget from the ported 1.5 version. I unzipped the apk but can't find the background.
This is my first attempt at modifying a widget and I am obviously missing something here...can someone point me in the right direction?
thanks
EDIT: Got it done. Both files available below

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}

If I had to guess, it would be widget_bg.9.png in the drawable folder?

I do agree that it looks like the most likely suspect. So it's expanded allowing for different resolutions?
*I'm away from my comp or I'd give it a go

Here you go, drop these 2 images into the correct folders, like in the zip. They work fine for me using metamorph

I tried the two files but they were not the correct png's. I figured out which image to modify (appwidget_bg.9.png in /res/drawable-mdpi), and then spent a few hours learning the ins/outs of .9.png images and the correct method of signing apk's.
So, after rigorous testing I present:
geniewidget_clear_1.5.apk (first post)

nice work!

The files work fine on mine, but im running 2.1 so guessing there's the problem, i didnt read initially that you wanted it for the 1.5 version sorry. Glad you got it sorted.

No worries. You actually helped in pointing me in the right direction to look in the drawable-mdpi folder. I wanted to make an apk anyway for this instead of using metamorph...of course I had no idea how much work was involved though with signing/.9.png/eclipse

[BOOT ANIMATION] Ubuntu

A boot animation themed like the newer ubuntu ones.
If anyone has any suggestions for improvement let me know
EDIT: I just realized that i should probably post how to install this...
for CM7 and a couple other roms put it in /system/media/bootanimation.zip
and for the stock rom/sense based it goes at /system/customize/resource/bootanimation.zip
I've read that for sense based it may need to be called VZWbootanimation.zip or something along those lines just replace whatever is there.
permissions need to be set at rw-r--r-- or an upside down L on the left side in root explorer if you don't understand that.

so i cant just Flash it on Clockwork?

this is just the actual boot animation file that goes into the file system... you can just put it there with root explorer or the like.
doesn't get extracted by the way. you just need to rename the zip file

Its because I used the kitchen and the link is only good for 24hours. What's the best way to post a folder on here?

Okay just learned how to use megaupload so the file is good to go. Enjoy

What is the recommended way to install this?

i just flashed it like a rom. By going through recovery.

Yea, just thought of that... still not awake yet. Thanks!

Here is some coffee your way.

Just added a photo so you see what you get

getting installation aborted for some reason

which link?

I found the problem. When I download the file from UOT kitchen to my mac the files get unzipped then I have to rezip it which causes the problem. Anyone have a fix let me know. I am working on reuploading the files now.

dmrusoff you should be good to go, I fixed the files and new links are posted.
For future reference if anyone is downloading zip files on a mac and the file gets unzipped go to safari, preferences then go to the general tab and uncheck the Open "safe" files after downloading.
This will fix the problem with having to rezipping the file and causing the error when trying to flash the zip file.

Cool, so I was able to flash it over. Works good, except the green is a different color than the wifi and signal bars.

Yea I don't know what color the signal icon is to match it. If anyone one knows let me know and I will make new files with the correct colors.

Here you go. I don't remember where I got these but you can simply overwrite the 204 icons inside the framework-res.apk. Your framework-res.apk must already be modded for the 1% battery mod prior to dropping these into the framework-res.apk.
Make sure to use 7Zip and simply open up the framework-res.apk and navigate to \framework-res.apk\res\drawable-hdpi. Then drag all the icons into this folder and overwrite the existing icons.
Hope this helps

Need help to Identify a png

Hello,
Something is bothering me when I'm watching a video :
when I hit the volume keys, this volume popup is coming in front of the video, and stays there for ages

"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",

"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I would like to edit the background and make it transparent. I'm pretty sure it's located in res\drawable-hdpi
but if someone knows which file it is, that would help me a lot
thanks !

Should be in framework-res.apk or SystemUI.apk.
Just view the folder and look for this png?
Maybe it's used by other dialogs too, so there could be more than one part. (top, middle, bottom)
And if you're not lucky, other dialogs are transparent too after this. ;o

I did open the "framework-res.apk"
I got a lot of files in it :laugh:
I did not find anything looking like it, only these ones maybe ... ?
is it a sigle png file or maybe these tiny squares put together ... I should test

On mine its dialog_full_holo_dark there are other dialogs that use it though...if you don't want to affect them you'd have to edit volume_adjust.xml to point to another image
If you can decompile your framework check that xml to confirm

ok thanks,
can I just extract the xml from framework-res.apk on my computer, edit it, and then add it again + adb push the new framework-res.apk ?
edit : looks like I need to read this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1427959

ok, in the XML volume_adjust.xml (once I decompiled the file), I found this :
android:background="@drawable/dialog_full_holo_dark"

yeah there is a bit involved in decompiling but its worth learning how to do it, especially with 9.pngs
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium

I have errors when I try to recompile, so I'm gonna go with replacing the PNG file with a transparent one, and just replace the png withing the APK using winrar. I made a backup. Time to adb :silly:

well, it doesn't change anything
(and I wipped cache+dalvik)
damn

Hmm that's weird, here's a compiled image I found on my phone if you want to try with that to test. If that works it must be something to do with the image you used, if that doesn't work it must be something to do with the process your using to push it to your phone not working.
http://db.tt/K2uTCdey
If you decide to give compiling another go...assuming you've got your environment and paths set up correctly and you've not changed the 9patches, the errors you're getting may be just plural errors? If that's the case you just need to go through values and change line 79 on each one so they're like %d %%d instead of %d %d (sorry that's a bit vague)
