Hi i would like some help which would be nice from any Theme Creator or Dev because they will probably know where to look.
So can anyone tell me which files need to be changed to make the volume & brightness bars in quicksettings pulldown bar to change the bar color? i have changed the color via framework, system ui or htc res, rosie, settings files but.... not sure which files i changed in what location that did that?
Also which file do i need to locate to change the button pressed on the home screen? Cause i wanna get rid of the green sense look to my phone, my phone is looking pretty modded & i know how to use Photoshop to change PNGs & know how to mod APKs too.
Any help would be great i have tried the search bar on here & also in google but didnt get any results & to be honest i know people on XDA will know this.... thanks in advance
The progress bar color in quick settings is defined by this file: common_progress_full.9.png (in SystemUI.apk/res/drawable-hdpi)
Are you using a Gingerbread 2.3.5 or Sense 3.5 rom? If yes, the button press color in the homescreens can't be changed. At the moment all available tools fail with decoding the images.
In Sense 2.1, you have to edit Rosie.apk. For Sense 3 (+ GB 2.3.3 or .4), fusion.apk has to be edited with m10 tool.
I can give you more details if you want to.
Thanks
Thanks for that but i cant locate it in my system ui/res/drawable-hdpi? i tried looking in htc/rs/draw-hdpi too? cant find that common_progress_full.9.png? could you check again for me or if have time upload the file? i cant see why it would be missing though?
I havent had a chance to mess with the m10 editor? is it easy enough to use when editing the fusion.apk?
I love XDA.... its the best for phone modding & has many helpful members

I have changed the button press & also found the common_progress_full.9.png from another rom but if you or anyone else can post your common_progress_full.9.png (in SystemUI.apk/res/drawable-hdpi) so i can try there one cause the progress bar isnt looking normal? it looks mis-shapen? Thanks again
What Rom are you using? Could you upload your SystemUI, so I can take a look

You have to load the Rosie.apk with m10 editor, then decompile the Rosie_navbar.m10 file and change the following opacity values from 1 to 0.0099999998. If you set them to 0, pressing on the buttons will have no effect.
thanks for this

Do you mean the volume bars? if so just goto the UOT Kitchen & chage them in there, then flash them over your rom, or put the changes of your framework & system ui into your rom zip & flash your rom again?

Hi. I wanna ask if is it possible to change the clock font on the statusbar cm7. And I'm currently on squadzone cm7 RC5.7. I have a question. Is it the framework problem or something's else cause when I use tickle my android, the decompile and the recompile was sucess. And when I push it in I got a bootloop. Can anyone help me?
Well the easiest way to change font is to rename your desired font to the one used by the clock (mostly "Clockopia") and replace it by pushing to System/fonts and set permissions

If you have a bootloop, that's because you've got something wrong with your framework-res.apk. I'm guessing that you recompiled it but didn't prepare it. You have to prepare system files or they just won't work.
That said, decompiling files isn't the way to change your clock font. Tickle My Android does have an option for changing the clock font in the modifying menu, although I can't guarantee that it'll work on your CM7. If it doesn't, the best way is to look in /system/fonts and start replacing fonts. Hopefully, the font you need will have a fairly obvious name..

I did prepare system files but sometimes when I wanted to push it in, it says write only file system. How can I change it? And for the clock I've changed clokopia and one more I guess it's called honeycombAndroidClock.tff but all they change was only the lockscreen clock

For changing battery and stuff its easier to use UOT Kitchen
I know uot kitchen is the best but I'm already on a ics rom. All I want is to change the batt icon. When I upload the framework and systemUI I got shtf file. All I can do is uploading the theme chooser theme. Unless I could find a theme chooser theme which it is pure and not modded before.

Hmm.. Tell you what, if you can share your files on the Tickle My Android thread, I can make this mod for you.
I can even take a look at changing your clock font. I'll just need to know what fonts you have in your Rom.

Hello, I wonder if someone can decrease the height of the navbar / softkeys the stable version of cyanogenmod (version cm10.1.3) to 32px. I looked up he was some way to do this but do not have the knowledge necessary to make this change.
From what I've been researching which could be modified to do this would be in framework-res.apk.
I left here the framework-res.apk for those who have the capacity and knowledge to make this small modification.
I appreciate anyone who can help me with this.
edit:
All credits go to Drummerjed.
I asked and he made this small change in navbar and now here I leave the arrangement for those who want to reduce the height of the navbar to 32DP.

I think your best bet would be to simply change your ROM. PA has many great features, but it lacks in customizability. I know CarbonROM (I'm using it) has an option to remove the signal icon in the status bar.
Settings -> Carbon Fibers -> Statusbar ->Signal status style -> Hidden

Is that ouya launcher meant for tablets? Because if it is then try changing the screen density through build.prop

Updated: 2015-08-21 - Changed links because of new host.
Update: 2015-05-01
I updated the scripts so that now you can just flash the LCD density you want. Before, the script would change one specific density to another. Now, it changes any density (3 digit) to the desired density. Everything else is the same.
These files edit build.prop from any three digit density to either 560, 493, 480, or 476 depending on which zip you flash.
For 560 (stock) LCD density:
https://spideroak.com/share/N5QWWZA...k-bld.prp-mod-set-560-LCD-2015-05-01-1846.zip
For 493 LCD density:
https://spideroak.com/share/N5QWWZA...k-bld.prp-mod-set-493-LCD-2015-05-01-1844.zip
For 480 LCD density:
https://spideroak.com/share/N5QWWZA...k-bld.prp-mod-set-480-LCD-2015-05-01-1845.zip
For 476 LCD density:
https://spideroak.com/share/N5QWWZA...k-bld.prp-mod-set-476-LCD-2015-05-01-1846.zip
Original Post:
I install roms all the time and one of the things I hate having to do is edit the build prop to get my preferred LCD Density. Stock is 560 and I prefer 476. I made a flashable zip that I can just flash immediately after I install a rom. All it does is use sed to change "ro.sf.lcd_density=560" to "ro.sf.lcd_density=476". This saves a little time editing the file manually and saves a reboot. The included buildpropmodifier.sh script can easily be edited to whatever values a user might like. The script also includes the ability to enable tethering and hide the soft keys, but these options are disabled by default. The buildpropmodifier.sh script is well annotated to show how it works and can be changed.
I made these for myself but thought others might find them useful. As with anything on XDA you use these at your own risk. They work fine on my N6 but I cannot be responsible for how you use them.
This zip changes the stock LCD density of 560 to 476:
https://spideroak.com/share/N5QWWZA...k-bld.prp-mod-560-476-LCD-2015-04-25-1611.zip
This zip changes the LCD density from 476 back to the stock 560:
https://spideroak.com/share/N5QWWZA...k-bld.prp-mod-476-560-LCD-2015-04-25-1611.zip
Who needs a ZIP for this?
Opening build.prop in system with an root Explorer and change the density works well.

Thanks. Very useful as I always have to change mine to 493 and would do it via flashing when I flash Rom.
thanks, u saved me one reboot.

Ya, it's certainly nothing earth shattering. Just a convenience . It takes like 5 seconds to flash upon install, vs editing build.prop and rebooting.
I find it quite useful. This is why a shared it.
Comes in handy should you have any bootloops related to changing DPI.

That's a good idea. This evening I will update the script to match any 3 digit number and change it to the stock 560. This would make it easier in this case, in particular and also generally.
updated zips to be more useful
I updated the scripts in the OP so that now you can just flash the LCD density you want. This change was inspired by ilamaan's post. Before, the script would change one specific density to another. Now, it changes any density (3 digit) to the desired density. Everything else is the same.

Any chance for a reupload? Would love to get a copy of this zip file, no matter which version, as I'd change it to my personal dpi setting (520). Thanks in advance for any help!
