[Q] Roaming - Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hello to all guys. I have a question to ask. I Noverca as a mobile and for those who do not know, it's all roaming with tim.
putting roaming of course I get the little "r" where there are bars of phone signal and that's why when I'm on the net I never know what mode I surf. here's my question: do you think there is a way to eliminate that (for me) annoying "r"? Thanks to all in advance.

then you need to edit your System UI.apk
copy it to sdcard from system/app
make sure your phone is rooted
then move it to computer
open the .apk with 7zip
then choose Res>xxHDPI
Then find "R" picture
and change it to

}
<<< this is the transparent image,so you can't see.right click and save image.replace all the "R" with this picture,make sure you have rename to original name
after changed put the xxHDPI to Res>replace xxHDPI
Then put it to your phone,system,change permissions to RW-R-R and move to app
and restart your phone,you don't see "R" now. :laugh:

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.

[Lollipop] N9005 SecContacts_Phone_OSup recompiled don't work

hi guy
I have try to mod SecContacts_Phone_OSup.apk of Leaked stock Lollipop GBNL8 for N9005 but he don't work (haven't got icon phone and contact on grid app after flash)
I have decompiled the apk stock and recompiled without any mod but don't work too
I have tried with another Compression level
it not work
I use apktool 2.0.0RC3 (support Lollipop)
smali/baksmali 2.0.5
Same problem here!
Yep. Many of us have been aware of the issue practically since it came out. There are ways to change some things, but no way around the recompiling issue (yet).
Hi mate,
How you were able to change things inside apk?
I tried only with rar to change res files but FC at all.

Usally you use 7-zip . You right click on apk and select open within the 7-zip right click options (do not unzip) . Then drag your png etc..
I could tell you, but I'd have to kill you....
