Hi guys, I was wondering if it would be possible to change the icons from stock gingerbread to the icons of the S3, using something like APK tool or root explorer? Is it just a case of finding the PNG's in the stock firmware, deleting them, then pasting the new S3 PNG's in their place?
try searching for this keyname in search box SGS IV- theme V3.zip its theme for GB full with all u wanted, i only got da zip file and i cant upload it.

One way of doing this is to either flash in MesoRom or Saurom and then flash in the SIII mod made for those roms.
Or if you don't want to flash in a new rom, Ninjamorph on the Play Store lets you do the same thing- but bear in mind you need te pngs at the right size and everything beforehand, plus everthing is manual.

Hi Gurus,
I have just flashed to [2.3.5]KK4 Saurom using full wipe. Its working fine. I wanted to howdo I get more themes for it. on OP there is only 1 additional theme ICS which I dont want. Any help would be appreciated
why not just goto UOT Kitchen and create your own?
It doesn't work on Saurom. I'm trying to figure this issue out myself.
They are working on more themes

I'm running Saurom KK4 and use the kitchen all the time.
Works fine for me.
You may need to pull the modified files out of the UOT.zip file and manually place them in the correct locations on your phone.
For me the modded files don't always get updated when flashing the UOT.zip file from recovery.
That's probably the problem then, thanks for the input!

i noticed when i flash a UOT from kitchen my status bar removes itself completely.... would installing manually fix that, you think?
So I want to change my statusbar to the classic style. (The white version from 2.2 and back) So I was wondering if there is a way to do this. I have a rooted samsung exhibit 2 4g running Rebel Rom 2.1. Any help appreciated
Ok.
yes there is. first grab the statusbar.apk from somewhere (anywhere). then replace the current statusbar.apk with the new one. reboot after. note that it may not work depending on screen size. you may status-brick your phone. (if you know what i mean)

I'm a little new to this. So where in root explorer would that apk be? And where would I find this apk and would it automatically change to the classic version after I replace the old one?
Sent from my SGH-T679 using XDA
goto /system/apps (different on nearly every phone) and then replace. the status bar will be missing at first so do a reboot. if you cant find the statusbar.apk file then there is an explorer out there (root) that allows you to search for it. im not sure if root ex has it but try anyway. remember to find one designed for your device. (or one which screen size matches) or you could status-brick your phone. as always something could go wrong if you play about with it so i take no responsibility and assure you if you follow all instructions...both instructions (XD) correctly then you should have what you want.

lol @ statusbar.apk
You want to look in framework folders for the pngs for the status bar

More likely in systemui.apk, located in /system/app...
Well there aren't any roms with that version for my phone. So what would be my next option?
Sent from my SGH-T679 using XDA
There's a Retro Android theme for CM7 somewhere. That'll have all the icons to make then hopefully you/someone can help create the theme.
Sent from my GT-I9100
Thank you
I have that apk. So what your saying is that I need to find someone who can use this apk to make a status bar apk out of it? Could I replace the current status bar apk with the Retro Droid apk?
Sent from my SGH-T679 using XDA
Yes. Just find the right file.

But since its just a theme wouldn't it not be considered part of the system UI?

Depends on the file your replacing ....
I'm gonna try to make the GB statusbar froyo. Tell you how it went

With the icons and all? If successful please let me have it lol. Btw I'm replacing SystemUI.apk
Sent from my SGH-T679 using XDA
system ui is only icons and out line. example: hold power to get a menu. the icons will be different and maybe the outline a different colour. thats it. the icons also involve check boxes and things. not settings though.

OK, well the forum for rebel rom 2.1 said that systemui.apk is the status bar.apk for that rom. So if I delete systemui.apk and replace it with retrodroid.apk. will I get my desired goal?

Why not just try UOT Kitchen?
Hi everyone!
The thing is, I hate the stock android emoticons, so I made these myself which I think they look nice.
Two packs, one pack they have 36x36 pixels res, the other one 46x46, why? If you use the normal screen 240dpi, then use the 36x36 emoticons, if you use for example SlimBean rom at its default 182dpi, use the 46x46 pack, otherwise they will look too small.
Bellow you can see how they look using the 46x46 at 182dpi, using SlimBean rom.
I also made a lock screen unlock button with neXus X shape
I hope you like it.
ATTENTION: this aren't installation zip's, you must unpack and replace the png files in Mms.apk, Framework.apk and Talk.apk in any rom zip file and gapps, I use winrar to do this, I believe 7zip does the same. This is intended for rom developers and who likes to change things their own way, like I do
Keep getting installation aborted? Do I just put it on sd card and flash?

Pretty sure the emoticons are part of the framework. This zip won't install them. You would need to add them into the framework yourself.

Yes, this zip's won't install anything, they are supposed to be unpacked and replace the correspondent ones in Mms.apk, Framework.apk and also Talk.apk inside of any gaaps package, if you want. I use winrar to do this, to customize rom graphics on my own way.

I have tried using google to find a mod that would change the stock system menu from white to other colors. But I haven't found any. I am am wondering if there is a mod or method to do so? I want to go back to stock on 757 without using custom stock roms. What are ways to change other stock apps to other colors too?
Decompile specific app's apk and edit res files yourself, plently of tutorials lying around. Commonly shared ones might be in framework-res.apk or SystemUI.apk
