You have to decompile the .apk in order to read .xml files
Download APKManager and work with the .apk there.

Mms_cyan
I did a cyan version & green version
- works if you choose dark theme
- new contact picture
- new text color
Code:
adb remount
adb push Mms.apk /system/app/Mms.apk

If you are unable to get this to work by amending the apk's then try using handsent sms as the customisation on the app is simple and will get you the effect you are after.

[GUIDE] How make themes to QQLauncher

Hi.
This is tutorial "how to make themes to QQLauncher". It's pretty easy
What you need:
- Android 1.5+ phone
- QQLauncher
- 7-Zip
- Notepad++
- Photoshop, GIMP or whatever you like for resizing pngs
-----------------------------------
1. First you need to install QQLauncher (like a normal app).
2. Then download theme from online gallery (follow menu button -> Theme -> Theme gallery -> choose one of themes, i.e. "复古印象"), but don't apply it!
3. Now connect your phone to computer and navigate to "sdcard/QQLauncher". You need to copy "log.log" file and theme (with strange chinesse name) from "theme" folder to your desktop.
4. Open your "log.log" file with Notepad++ and you'll see lines like these:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
- in blue square there is app name
- in yellow app package name (like in "data/app")
- in red app activity name - we need this to name icon
5. Find icon which you want to add (if you need to resize it, there are recommended sizes <because QQLauncher doesn't support icon scalling>: for HDPI 86x86 to 90x90 and MDPI 53x53 to 65x65) and rename it to this "com.cih.gamecih2.gamecih" (you need to write all name in lowercase, otherwise it won't work!)
6. Open your theme file with 7-Zip and copy icon to "icons" folder.
7. If you want to have other dockbar background, you need to replace "dock_bg.png" file in "icons" folder.
8. If you want to have other app background for apps without definied icons, you need to replace "appbackground.png" file in "icons" folder.
9. Copy your theme file to "sdcard/QQLauncher/theme" and apply it in Theme gallery
----------------------------
If you have any questions or suggestions to this tutorial, just write me on PM

Amazing !! Thx a lot, i'll try this week end.

Thanks!

8.1 if you wanna change folder icon put image called folder.png

Okay, i want to theme the ChompSMS icon, so i just isntalled it, but in the log.log file, I cant even find chompsms, so what should i do. Ill attach my log.log file

Hmmm, I don't see it in your log file. Try to find apk file in "data/app" and then search for it in log

@supetawesomedude you said you just installed it, you have to reboot after install to update log, so just reboot then browse your log

@supetawesomedude, just delete log.log file and then restart launcher, I will generate with these app you have got

Thanks to both of you! Both methods advised have worked fine and my phone is even sexier

i dont hav any task killer!
but this launcher seems to kill itself every now and then and .. restarts!
is it only me? :-s
i love this launcher! please help!

Not working for me
Anyone mind taking a stab at making a theme using the icons (with permission from teh OP) from here? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1225629

What the hell, I've added many icons to my own personal theme and I have correctly named, replaced, resized, compressed, and then I renamed the zip file to 圆润有爱 and then placed in the qqlauncher. then i try to apply it, and it gives my some kind of error in chinse. I have no idea what to do, ill attach my 圆润有爱.zip as a link to mediafire. http://www.mediafire.com/?693bt619sdg4iq9

You've choosen another theme you are working on NOW first?
So apply other theme, mount USB, put file in QQlauncher/theme
and then unmount USB, go to themes and apply the new one?
Or?

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1254359

I didn't try, but it should work.
But make a nandroid backup before trying! There's no guarantee, that it works.
But please report, if it works.

how does the dropdown menue look like?

The dropdown menue is in stock design. I like it.

so it is with wifi, gps etc control? too bad. dont want the button bar in it

I made a mod of this with my icons.
The links are in the first post.
I can't test it, so please make a backup and report if it works.

i dont want the icons at all so i wont test it.. sorry..

Why you don't take this and put your own icons into it?

thanks! works

how about v20i version?

I tested this on v20i .. the problem is that when wifi is connected it still shows the E (edge) icon or the hspa icon .. please be adviced !

I will make a version for V20i tomorrow.

Framework for V20i added. Please try and give me a feedback.

Ive just tested 20i framework ! it is the same as v20e the data icon still there even if wifi is connected . modaco's rom has transparent pull down menu and black menus !

Hm, I don't know, why it doesn't work.
I only put my icons in the framework of Topogigis V20i rom.
Maybe anyone can help?

Help theming FlymeOS StatusBar

Hello,
I have a meizu MX HK M30 dual core with flymeOS 1.1.7 Which is based/created upon Android ICS 4.0.3.
I want to theme my status bar, but the SystemUI.apk is completetly different than other ICS Rom or CM9 Rom.
I have tried different thing for modding but all the time systemUI stop working, but compiling with no errors, I think there is some isssue with smali code.
So I need the help of a good themer for modding and explain to me how my systemUI for statusbar work.
I want a small transparent statusbar with center clock whithout date, wifi and carrier signal on the left.
I upload some screen shot of FlymeOS
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
As you can see in the Home there is a big statusbar and this is here that I want a small statusbar.
Make attention the notification of sms or other are in the second row of the big statusbar and need to be placed at the top.
Here is a Google Drive link with stock deodexed SystemUI.apk Framework-res.apk of FlymeOS 1.1.7 :
https://docs.google.com/folder/d/0B5e4iFwEmsizUjdhYlZ5UE1XN1E/edit
Thanks in advance.

The trick used by MrColdbird to always have the small statusbar is to pretend we're never on the Home Screen (if I understood correctly the smali mods).
Regarding the placement, I think the xml res mention several date objects
- com.android.systemui.statusbar.policy.HomeClock
com.android.systemui.statusbar.policy.DateView in layout/status_bar_large.xml & layout/home_lower_panel.xml
(2-row status)
- com.android.systemui.statusbar.policy.Clock in layout/status_bar_opr.xml
(?)
- com.android.systemui.statusbar.policy.Clock in layout/status_bar_small.xml
(1-row status?)
- com.android.systemui.statusbar.policy.DateView in layout/status_bar_expanded.xml
(dragged statusbar?)
Can you try & see if you can tweak these xml files?
Edit: does it belong better in forumdisplay.php?f=1905 ?

Thanks for reply
Do you come from MeizuMe?
So I have already tried to change some value in this XML files
If I undestand correctly the large home status bar work like that :
there is one file in res/layout/statusbar.xml this file call three other XML for the different look of the status bar :
- 1 res/layout/small_status_bar.xml which is the code for the look of the status bar when an app is open.
- 2 res/layout/opr_status_bar.xml which is the code for the lockscreen status bar.
- 3 res/layout/status_bar_large which is the code for the home status bar this file include a call of /res/layout/home_lower_panel.xml which is the second line of large home status bar.
So the thing that I want to know is can I remove the Home_lower_panel.xml whithout problem or I need to touch the smali code ?
If I need to touch the smali code I can't because I don't understand how smali works. I have already read some article on the google dev guide but I don't undestand.
Can you try some edit on the systemUI file try to compil and upload your file for testing I need an external coder and point of view because my processus for modding is wrong.
I put the recommended files for work on google drive : systemUI you have the framework-res.apk and systemUI.apk
try in your side give me the file for testing.
( ATTENTION : If you have your own meizuMX for testing be carrefull the files that I have upload come from FlymeOS 1.1.7 the latest update from meizu.
I have Just deodex the rom. So if you want to test in your own you need a Flyme 1.1.7 deodex rom, I can upload it if you need.)
Sometimes I have some aapt error when (for example) : I remove home_lower_panel.xml and I tried to recompile.
For a succefull compil I need to export the classes.dex and ressource.arcs inside my working SystemUI folder.
But after that I have SystemUI stop working when the phone start I use root explorer, I give the good permissions.
Do you think I make something wrong and do I need to make a flash zip and clear data ?
And I don't understand what you mean "Edit: does it belong better in forumdisplay.php?f=1905 ?" ?
Thanks for giving a little of your time for some FlymeOS user.

Hi,
No body with experiences in ICS, JB, CM theming wants to help ? please, take a look on the file which I upload.
Thanks.
