Hello Guys over XDA's...is ginger-DX cant be edited framework-res.apk like xml's and png?...and metamorphing caught me to a boot loop??,,,any ideas?
You can to decompile framework-res.apk using apktool or apkmanager
GingerDx uses T-mobile theme. Download one of them and if you want to edit the default framework what you have to theme is not the usual framework-res.apk but the SystemUi (or something like that) app in system/app. Then you push back the modified app to system/app. You can use apktool to modify the theme.

In that case, just install and apply that theme,then go to gingerdx setting to set the statusbar transparency to theme and reboot
Not all launcher can have transparent statusbar,
If you're using launcher pro,you should use live wallpaper to get the transparent statusbar
I suggest you use zeam launcher

i am talking bout editing the framework-res..whr did u go to?
Sorry,thought you only need transparent statusbar
Just like i've said before,you can use apktool to decompile framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk
You need java installed on your pc first
But gingerdx already have a feature for transparent statusbar
I've tried it and it works,but i found a lil bug on date when pull down the statusbar

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

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.

You need to have these things first :
1- Root
2- Deodexed ROM
3- PC (with JAVA installed)
4- Any apk decompiler (apktool, apk-multitool, etc..)
How to :-
1- Copy SystemUI.apk from /system/app/ to your sd card via any root browser.
2- transfer SystemUI.apk to your computer.
3- Decompile SystemUI.apk.
4- Open res\layout\status_bar.xml
5- There you will see a value like android:background=FF000000
6- To make it translucent type 5F000000 instead of FF000000 or to make it full transparent type 000000
Enjoy and if any questions plz ask here.. .

Ok, this guide needs to be elaborated... :angel:
I did the same, and following was output:
1. Even while changing background to 5f000000, background became full transparent.
2. Whenever i open an app, status bar becomes black again(opaque)
3. During media scanning also status bar looses transparency!
This means status bar is only transparent when on homescreen!
I'm attaching images which i tried on jelly blast rom and also the modded systemui.apk (of Jelly Blast rom) if anyone wants to try. Just rename the file to systemui.apk and put in system/app, change permissions and reboot. you will face lots of force close messages but don't worry after reboot it'll be fine!:good:

bro you don't have to edit drawer.xml but statusbar.xml -.-
And this guide is small and easy one for those who don't want to all the long fuss!
so you will get transparent status bar only when on homescreen or pulling the notification panel down
And I you want permanent transparency then you must search other guides or if they are not there then I will try to make it when I would get time
i think that I should mod the launcher so that it will have permanent trans. but I don't know how, if its ok with to make a tut it will be a big help for me

This guide is correct. Just make it sure that you paste this value "#00000000" or "#ff000000"

There are a few decent themes in Samsungs store. However, the icon packs are horrendous. Nova launcher hides them in some places but not others, like the share menus.
Does anyone know how to flash the material icons over any theme?
Edit: Also, how about the wallpaper for settings and dialers?
Thanks for any help [emoji2]

You would need apktool to compile the icons into the actual theme. However, if you want to just remove the icons and have them stock, you can try this:
-Edit /data/overlays/jsonfiles/userjson/THEMENAME.json and remove the line for "appicon", then delete the corresponding folder from /data/app/THEMENAME.appicon-1. If you want to remove the icons from the lockscreen, you will need to do the same for the "lock" line/file.
