backup the apk and move it on your computer. Then use 7zip to open it up, and dig through the files in there to find it

[Q] ???Team Tiamat Xoom 2.0 theme???

Im looking for the theme/images from the above ROM, can anyone extract them for me please?
I think some people are working on them, but 2.0 just came out a few days ago, they most likely need a little bit of time to produce a quality theme.
Tony, I too am looking for a theme or someone to work with on creating one...

Your looking for the images from that theme?
Sent from my Xoom using XDA Premium App
here you go just copy your framework res apk to your desktop and upload that to the kitchen and then pick and chose what you want to change. Once that is done submit to the kitchen and wait a few mins then pick up your flashable zip file to flash in cwm.

When you say the "file" you mean the image or the apk? Because I don't think apks for ICS can work on a phone with GB. :S
I want it to look like this....
There is a tutorial here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1494271
But it is for Galaxy Ace so I don't think it would fit on my screen.... Please help me, is the only thing i need to make my phone look 100% ICS.
EDIT: Actually I check on google and I noticed Galaxy Ace's screen is HVGA too.... (320x480) Let me try this to see if it works... Thanks anyway
EDIT 2: It doesn't work... after applying it it reboots and then i have a bootloop. Any way to make this work? Please help!

It probably has something to do with your current dpi.

What you mean by "dpi"?
My phone is a Live with walkman (320x480) resolution so this images posted on the thread have to work on my phone.
Here is what I did:
Installed Ninjamorph
Copy framework-res.apk to SD.
Open apk with Ninjamorph.
Replace png files posted in the thread I just mention before.
Finish project
Replace original framework-res.apk with the new one (new pngs) with the right permissions.
And that`s it. But it doesn't work.
Oh sorry dude,today i was messing around with build.prop changing dpi and pattern lockscreen looked just like yours.

So.... is there a way to change this To make CM7 pattern lockscreen look like ICS??

[REQ] Sense 5 4x1 clock/weather background removal

I was wondering if anyone knew a way to remove the black background of the 4x1 sense clock/weather widget. This would make it match the one on the lock screen. Would be really awesome if there is a way to do this.
Also as a second thought is there a way to remove the background on the rosie bar as well but leave the line that is on top of it. This would make it look similar to the top bar (as a separate patch from the clock one)
Thanks in advance for any replies!

For weather clock bg its in htcweatherclockwidget clock_weather_panel and for the dock its in prism home_nav_bar_bg both are jpgs in stock and must be turned into a png and then apply transparency to them
Sent From A Tweaked OutHTC ONE
Thank you for the reply!
I've never modded android files before is there a certain color that represents transparent or do I just bring it into photoshop and delete the background?
Once i have modded these files do I leave them as PNGs with the same title or do I have to make them jpgs again (which I don't think support transparency but I could be wrong)
Sorry I'm a novice at this.
Sent from my HTCONE using Tapatalk 4 Beta
Things I have tried to no avail (I'm noob)
1) exporting the files from the APKs converting to PNG and making it transparent then saving them in the APK as PNG (removing the old jpg)
2) This did not work so I then tried renaming the PNG back to .jpg still keeping the exact title then tried both flashing a zip and manually overwriting the file and rebooting still did not work (manually replacing the APK just caused HTC to crash over and over until I flashed my backup)
3) tried using a morph app that was recommended elsewhere on the forum (NinjaMorph) applied the file change, no change appears on the clock still solid background

basically it modifies the apk existing already on the system, so for example 4.2 sense 5 might have the same widget but since it's upgraded firmware the apk in this zip might not work or FC, so the VR theme would decompile the apk replace any of the changed files then recompile the apk in line so it works on any number of devices/roms/ect

I see.. for me it's not that easy since i'm still new to this. Anyway, could you do that vrtheme to make the apk work with the One S? That would really be great, since i can't find in the playstore the exact look of the widgets in sense5.. maybe the only way is to port the widgets directly from the files from the One..
I'm looking forward to the vrtheme you would be making. Thanks so much. Kudos to you! :thumbup:

Oh i see.. so i need to be on a sense 5 based ROM to be able for the vrtheme you will make to work properly.. but sad to say as of now, there isn't any stable sense 5 ROM for One S.. most of them are still on beta stage that's why i'm still with Viper. But, is there any way that the vrtheme you'll make will work on sense4+? Or is it really impossible?

Will the changes be applied to the whole OS I mean the theme of other apps like root explorer will also change or what ?
Because root explorer uses the default theme of android it looks different on different ROMS

I think that while you use tw, it will be the same for apps like root explorer, my files and so on. some of the roms are themed so that may be why it looks different. can't really say as I prefer just plain stock, and even with holo launcher hd it uses the tw colors when opening apps.

Secphone is the phone during call. If you want to change how the app looks then you should edit the SecContacts

Since you edited the SecPhone.apk check the in-call Dailer. And you don't have to create a flashable zip, you can just push file to /system
In call_dailer_press.9.PNG refers to the pressed button and in call_keypad_BG_01.PNG refers to the keypad I've edited only the later one but changes just don't show up this is the first time I've encountered such an error...
