im looking for a completely transparent tf3d no icons, slider or anything. but it still works like normal tf3d & still have the name of each tab show when u scroll through. i have pics that i made of how i want it to look but i cant post them for some reason. if any one can create one or teach me how to do it myself i would greatly be thankful.
you should be able to use manila editor and just change the graphics to transparent images. you could easly remove the slider, buttons.
thanks! i have the customizer already. i just need the transparent/invisible icons. i cant find them anywhere!
Easiest way that I found to that is to open the manila file with the manila editor and save the image that it is using now then use something like Photoshop to delete everything so there is just a transparent background. Then put it back in with manila editor. I would do it for you but I don't have the time right now to go through the files again and find which manila files correspond to the bottom slider and icons
many thanks!
i found one that was close to what im looking for. but ill try what u said. thanks!
I am trying to change the look of the default dock for the EVO. I have been able to change the background for it, but after a few hours of looking around for the XML file that controls the layout of the dock, I still can't find it. Any ideas where that specific file is? Also I am looking for this file so I can get rid of the word "phone", along with the plus and circle arrow icons. Am I going about this the right way by finding the XML file then alter it to get rid of the images/words?
Thanks in advanced!
Hello - trying to search, but only getting search down error. I have the captivate with root and am trying to locate where the icons are kept. I would like to keep the 4 programs on the bottom dock, but want to change the icon. I wanted to go into Photoshop, but I can't find where the icons are kept. Any help or advice would be great. I prefer not to use another launcher to change icons as I like the screen the way it is.

There's an app called apk editor. Its on the i9000 themes and apps forum I believe.

Thanks! Going to check it out now.
OK, I'll admit it - I have no idea what I am doing. I do not know how to use the edit apk or apk manager. Is there any way to mount my phone, open photoshop, find an icon and edit it? I really am most wanting to edit the app icon on the dock. Does any one know where to find this icon? Also, where are the other icons - are they in each individual program? Thanks. Peace. Michele

1. extract the app with root explorer to the sd card,
2. put it on your computer and change it to a .zip file
3. extract the res folder and go into the drawable-hdpi
4. replace the current icon with the icon that you want (should be named something similar to "homescreen_icon_musicplayer.png" which is the stock music player icon) it shouldnt be to hard to figure out which one it is. just make sure the names are the same when you replace it.
5. replace the original res folder inside the zip file with the modified version
6. cange the zip back into a .apk and put it back onto the sd card
7. Finally using root explorer replace the old apk with the new one from the sd card.

Yes each app icon is built into the app. If all you really want to do is change the bar icon on your main screen then I would grab Launcher pro or another launcher that allows for custom Icons and use that or you will be editing each app one by one
I'm using one of the stock HTC Sense 2.5 skins as a basis for a custom skin. I'm using apktool to access the files and build my updated apk file. I've found a lot of the the things I want to replace, but I'm a bit stumped on where to find some of the button backgrounds and background panels (I don't see anything that looks exactly like these in any of the subfolders for the skin I'm working with). I'm attaching two screen shots with big orange arrows pointing to the specific parts I'm looking for. I'd greatly appreciate it if anyone can point me to where these items are located and what they are called.
Thanks in advance for any help anyone can offer.
Id say look in the htccamera.apk, framework, settings, htc res or system ui! Its so hard to find the correct png from all the different locations? Ive been in & out of the Rom frameworks & have modded my phone ui but those ones dont ring a bell sorry mate
Thanks. I hadn't thought of checking any of those files since these specific items seem to change according to the skin. I'll dig through them (especially the framework one, and see what I can find).
I am also interested in modify icons (specialy on my home screen) and cud you tell me what soft to use? Tku in advance

look in the folders like i said in post #2 plus try settings, rosie, ect.... you can mod almost any apk & png files, just dont mod the htc_ime.apk! Anything goes wrong.... just reflash the rom before you had problems
I am looking to mod the Touch Wiz Ux launcher to have a centered AllApps Button. Instead of all the way to the right, I have seen other people do this to the launcher before, but i cant seem to Figure our where or how to make this possible. Would greatly Appreciate it if you could, lend any sort of help to which xml or what needs to be done thanks. I am also looking to change it so you can put 5x5 apps on the pages, i seen this done. Not the App drawer 5x5, that already posted, but the actual launcher page, having the ability to have 5 apps by 5 apps. If there is an xml or somebody knows which one i need to edit for that as well it would be great appreciated.
