me for this easiest tut.............
if i help u then hit thanxxxxxx button
That sounds awesome i'll must try it ^^
There is a way to add "close all" button?
I know that you need to edit smali files,but It would be awesome.
this task manager is not smoth i think...
ICS task switchers are not for this phone for two reasons:
They're laggy.
The list doesn't fit on our small screen, making the default task switcher much, much more effective.
Will add This It To My New ROM will release Soon...

Man I told you
They are laggy and can create problems.
Tell me one use of them
You can't see the app running like ICS
You can't swipe to kill them
Stock ones are better

Little mod to battstatt,to display battery info in spanish, has some minor glitches with the sizes except large one, and another one that happen when the battery is below 10% the message below that percent has the "_y_" in front, that's because how the numbers are written in spanish. dont know how to fix it without the source code or messing with the widget core.

yea, sure, you need the program, apk manager, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=695701
with this, you can extract the installed apk from your phone to your pc, then this pogram can decompile the apk, with this you get the main files for the widget to work, there is a folder called "res", and inside is another one called "values", there are two xml file in wich you can change the language,arrays.xml and strings.xml.
in that two files you can modify the languaje displayed, be careful when changing the names because of the dependencies with other setings in the widget.
then with apk manager, you can compile again the apk and install it in to your phone.
thats, all
hope helps you.

Thank you mate.
"Text Battery Widget" has spanish builtin
Does anyone know how I would change the colours of the text in black below? It is the only thing that I can't find. I think It might be in services.jar somewhere but changing that is out of my depth.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Sometimes I changed color for date and clock.
For this I had to decompile "classes.dex" file which you cand
find if you open "services.jar" with WinRar or 7zip!
After changing colours you have to compile back,open "services.jar"
again and put the new "classes.dex" there.
But I think some colours for notifications are at
framework-res.apk/res/layout/status_bar.xml,not at "services.jar".

I am interested in this as well. I have searched and searched code and Google for where that precise line is and coming up empty. The links provided althougb useful and already used do not address the question.

It's an .xml file in DownloadProvider.apk/res/layout, I do believe.

You can change the color of the date in a .xml-file.
I'm building up a tutorial where to find to corresponding entries in the .xml-files (see my signature). Any hints to new places are welcome

This man and many others people on XDA-forum editing TouchWiz app. Original homescreen by Samsung. They are changing icons, adding backgrounds etc etc. Please could anyone help me or anyone know how to do that? This app - TouchWiz30Launcher.apk - is in system/apps. How or in which program I could edit for example icons or add new dock to bottom? Anybody know?
Please for all. Could anyone help me with this?
ok first you have to be on jpy firmware then you have to take the twlauncher30.apk from the thread you referenced and you need to be rooted an use root explorer to install to your phone by backing up the existing .apk and .odex (rename see instructions in other thread) and then overwritting it with the one from that thread.
the one from that thread is de-odexed so you can edit the .png (icons) using microsoft photo editor or something else and then replace the .png directly in the .apk file with 7zip.. then you can put modified .apk on phone in sameway..
here is my modified version with a modified "bender" launcher icon

}
Ok i learned this now but where I can change norification bar? In which app? Also in TouchWiz30Launcher.apk?
notification bar is in framwork-res.apk in system/framework..
same method using 7zip to change icons and then put back on phone with root explorer.. after putting back on phone stuff will start crashing and you should reboot.. (may need to pull battery).. make sure you have backups of originals.
notification pulldowns (not the bar) are much more comlicated and you have to change .jar files in the system as well.
Many thanks =) Changing icons in notification bar looks quite hard Is there any easier method?
what i did is find some other rom or custom rom you like and get the framwork-res.apk from that (you know you can just unzip the .apk and then use windows explorer to browser the directories to see all icons at once)
then you can open your framework-res with 7zip and the one with icons you like in another instance of 7zip and then just cut and past the icons (they need to be the same name... as some have additional icons and that entails decompiling and changing .xml files and recompiling and resigning.. much more complicated)... anyway just cut and paste directly from one 7zip into the other (your modifed framework-res from your curent firmware on your phone) then put it back on your phone.

i hope this can help ,
- skip folder drawable-sw360dp and drawable/tw_list_selector_holo_light.xml from source,.
- just merge drawable/frame_click.xml from source to folder drawable and also all .png from source (drawable-xhdpi).
- then open framework-res.apk/res/drawable/list_selector_holo_dark.xml and change this line (there are two lines)
Code:
android:drawable="@drawable/list_selector_background_transition_holo_dark"
to
Code:
android:drawable="@drawable/frame_click"
- save
done

Hi. I had same prob but I have a "solution". U go to system/priv-app/SystemUI and copy SystemUI.apk to your PC. Install 7zip extracting software. Then right click SystemUI.apk and choose open archive (or somethin similar option). Then go res/drawable-hdpi-v4/ and search two image files. The names of images are recent_lock_app and recent_unlock_app. Copy these two image to another folder on ur PC and edit their resolution to 1x1. If you ending the edit, copy back the edited files to res/drwaable-hdpi-v4/. Finally you copy back the "modded" SystemUI.apk to system/priv-app/SystemUI and overwrite the file, then install it. I suggest you reboot your device.
Good luck!! I hope I help you!

Never edit build.prop without backup first,, its rule for tweak a device
