[Q] [ADW]Theming help

I am trying to make my own ADW theme. Everything is set up correctly and I'm using Eclipse.
The problem I have is that I don't know how I should edit the xmls in /res/drawable without getting force close in Emulator when trying it out.
i.e. I edit home_arrows_left.xml from:
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><level-list xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item android:maxLevel="0" android:drawable="@drawable/dot_big" />
<item android:maxLevel="1" android:drawable="@drawable/dot_big" />
<item android:maxLevel="2" android:drawable="@drawable/dot_big" />
<item android:maxLevel="3" android:drawable="@drawable/dot_big" />
<item android:maxLevel="4" android:drawable="@drawable/dot_big" />
<item android:maxLevel="5" android:drawable="@drawable/dot_big" />
<item android:maxLevel="6" android:drawable="@drawable/dot_big" />
</level-list>
to:
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<level-list xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item android:maxLevel="0">dot</item>
<item android:maxLevel="1">dot</item>
<item android:maxLevel="2">dot</item>
<item android:maxLevel="3">dot</item>
<item android:maxLevel="4">dot</item>
<item android:maxLevel="5">dot</item>
<item android:maxLevel="6">dot</item>
</level-list>
And I create a file in drawable called dot.png
If I export+install with adb and select as ADW theme in emulator I get ADW force close when pressing home button.
I'm not a pro with XML but I could spend some time to learn more if someone just tells me what I need to know to create ADW themes.
Maybe I could use some tool to validate the XML?
The only problem I have is to edit the XML in the right way.

Just change all of the
Code:
android:drawable="@drawable/dot_big"
to
Code:
android:drawable="@drawable/dot"
And create a dot.png

Thank you for the help!
I have one more question.
How do I refer to images in drawable-hdpi/drawable-mdpi/drawable-ldpi depending on if they are hdpi/mdpi/ldpi?

I have tried to open some APK's but you can't see what's written in the XML files. Maybe someone could contribute with the source of an ADWTheme that have different images based on dpi?

You have to decompile an APK in order to view XML files as plain text. I suggest apkmanager 4.8 (I tried 4.9 and it wasn't compiling apks right for me.)
Once extracted, the tool will allow you to extract the contents of .apk's, and decompile them so you can edit the xml files. You will have to recompile and sign the .apk file once you decompile and edit it.

I extracted an apk from my device and turned it into a zip. I have viewed some XML's via AXMLPrinter2.jar but If I look what's written in android:drawable it says android:drawable="@7F020007". Thats not a path or a file so when it compiles the path changes. I shall see if the same thing happens with the program you told me about tomorrow.
Do you need to make different images for different dpi levels?

[Q] How To Edit progress_horizontal.xml ?

Hi.. i wanna change my Volume Progress Bar. and i figure out that the "progress_horizontal.xml" is the file needed to be edit, but i don't know how. i wanna make mine look like the ICS just a thin Line. but i want a different color a white one. but i don't know how to change the color and how to make the thick yellow progres bar to a thin white line............
by the way im using GinggerYoshi...
any help? Thanks in Advance!

Have a look a t the sources / resources of ICS (framework/base), there you can find what you need to modify the progress / seek layout.
If you have the sources of GingerYoshi (which I do not expect ) then you can edit the xml files with an editor, change the required images and rebuild.
If you don't have the sources you will need first to decompile framework_res.apk (for example by using apktool), before you can edit the xml. After that you need to re-compile everything. *But* it's not guaranteed, that this will always work ...
For changing the color of the progress bar images, you need to use draw9patch tool, because they are .9.png.
B.t.w. I suggest you to have a look at G1 Themes and Wallpapers or Arrow

You need to modify this areas if you wanna make it thinner "Widget.ProgressBar.Horizontal" and "Widget.SeekBar" in framework-res.apk\res\values something like this:
Code:
<style name="Widget.ProgressBar.Horizontal" parent="@style/Widget.ProgressBar">
<item name="maxHeight">5.0dip</item>
<item name="indeterminateOnly">false</item>
<item name="indeterminateDrawable">@drawable/progress_indeterminate_horizontal</item>
<item name="progressDrawable">@drawable/progress_horizontal</item>
<item name="minHeight">5.0dip</item>
</style>
<style name="Widget.SeekBar" parent="@style/Widget">
<item name="focusable">true</item>
<item name="maxHeight">5.0dip</item>
<item name="indeterminateOnly">false</item>
<item name="indeterminateDrawable">@drawable/progress_horizontal</item>
<item name="progressDrawable">@drawable/progress_horizontal</item>
<item name="minHeight">5.0dip</item>
<item name="thumb">@drawable/seek_thumb</item>
<item name="thumbOffset">8.0dip</item>

tab n grid all versions GPS BUG FIXED!!

When you try to use the gps the tab n grid crashes right? well this is the solution for every version of tab n grid for every model... im not sure if this bug exist in all models but the ones who have this bug you can do this
when you enter a app that uses gps the tab n grid shuts down to resolve that bug just go with this steps:
1: first use this tutorial to decompile and compile the SystemUI.apk -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2251719
2: after you decompile, go into SystemUI folder then -> res\drawable\stat_sys_gps_acquiring_anim.xml
the its -> : o without the white space, i didnt know how to put the code here in an other way
it should be something like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<animation-list androidneshot="false"
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item android:duration="500" android:drawable="@drawable/stat_sys_gps_acquiring" />
<item android:duration="500" android:drawable="@*android:drawable/APKTOOL_DUMMY_06ff" />
</animation-list>
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
3: and you delete this line:
<item android:duration="500" android:drawable="@*android:drawable/APKTOOL_DUMMY_06ff" />
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
it should look like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<animation-list androidneshot="false"
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item android:duration="500" android:drawable="@drawable/stat_sys_gps_acquiring" />
</animation-list>
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
4: Save and recompile.
5: Open the recompiled SystemUI.apk with winrar and delete AndroidManifest.xml
open the official SystemUI.apk of tab n grid (the one that you used to decompiled) and copy META-INF and AndroidManifest.xml to the new SystemUI.apk (the one you compiled) using winrar.
if you want an example of a tab n grid v1 for xperia j with 1 % step circle battery image and gps bug fixed, its in the attachments BTW I added full translation of tab n grid for Portuguese-Portugal for the oder languages is the same as the official tab n grid.
Thanks for your time,
i just wanted to share... sory for my english

Done!!
Now ur Systemui is of FMD panel but the wifi and bt toggles are two, one is that of fmd and 2nd one is of ur stock.... :angel:
So, follow next step...
Step 4:
Open Quicksettings.smali in smali/com/android/systemui/statusbar/phone
For Jellybean -
To remove bluetooth toggle find this-
Code:
bluetoothTile:Lcom/android/systemui/statusbar/phone/QuickSettingsTileView;
then scroll until you find
Code:
Landroid/view/ViewGroup;->addView(Landroid/view/View;)V
delete all that including the invoke
(note: just scroll dont use search button so you won't
get confused)
For data connection toggle find-
Code:
dataconnectiontile:/Lcom/android/systemui/phone/Quicksettingstileview
then scroll until you find this
Code:
invoke-virtual {v0, v7}, Landroid/view/ViewGroup;->addView(Landroid/view/View;)V
Delete it..
now just search for other tiles that you want to remove in the quicksettings..
For Kitkat-
Copy the line below search for it
Code:
.method private addAudioProfileTile(Landroid/view/ViewGroup;Landroid/view/LayoutInflater;)V
that is the tile of audio profile if you want to remove it from your panel then scroll find this in the method:
Code:
Landroid/view/ViewGroup;->addView(Landroid/view/View;)V
delete that whole line including the .line at the top of it
also delete the gaps because there must be only 1 gap
if you want to delete wifi tile from your panel
then search:
Code:
.method private addWifiTile(Landroid/view/ViewGroup;Landroid/view/LayoutInflater;)V
that is the tile of wifi if you want to remove it from your panel then just find again the this line in the method
Code:
Landroid/view/ViewGroup;->addView(Landroid/view/View;)V
delete that whole line including the .line at the top of it
Do it with all the toggles which u wanna remove
This step is slightly confusing, just skip it if u r not getting
Step 5:
Now What! Recompile ur systemui
Patch ur services.jar, yes! U have edited Androidmanifest.xml , so u gotta sign it with custom signature
Don't know how to patch services.jar.. Just search on XDA, there are many guides
Now make flashable zip of systemUI.apk and flash it.
SystemUi force closed , same as mine! Don't Worry Follow next step
Step 6:
Download fix.zip from attachments below.. Copy png to res/drawable-hdpi folder
Recompile ur systemui.apk and again decomile it
Open SignalToggle in /smali/com/fmd/qset
find 0x7f0201f3
replace with
<public type="drawable" name="stat_sys_signal_null"
from your public.xml
Ah! Done Now. Recompile ur systemui and flash it.. Enjoy

Help
I tried but got too many errors and didn't know how to solve them. Can i make a request that you do it for me and send back please. Here are the files and recompiling log from Tickle my Android. SystemUI.apk
Note: This might help, I have an Alcatel device so that means i have a custpack partition. In the custpack partition there is an apk file where the resources (res folder) for the SystemUI.apk is. It is called SystemUI-res.apk. So when decompiling you have to add the AndroidManifest.xml inside the apk before decompiling and remove it after recompiling. The files I've attached I've already done that for you so it would be great if someone can made the Android L for me .

Samsung SystemUI Support?
Is this method support samsung SystemUI..???

I googled one of your errors this one
Code:
Error for input '.parameter': Invalid directive
and i realized that you need to use apktool 1.5.2 and not 2.0. Sadly I couldn't find anything with the other error

Yeah i googled it also, .parameter lines are for debugging so you can delete them all, or use baksmali instead of apktool.
Then the no viable alternative at input 'dx' is a syntax error, in the code it is like this .local v1, dy:F but you need to put " " at the dx in this case: .local v1, "dy":F

Make sure you merged all the files from the res folder into your res folder in SystemUI.apk

Then the no viable alternative at input 'dx' is a syntax error, in the code it is like this .local v1, dy:F but you need to put " " at the dx in this case: .local v1, "dy":F

Seems like a lot and i don't know much, hardly anything about smali code. So I'm hoping someone can patch my SystemUI.apk :fingers-crossed:

Ok, the problem is that the smali code in the systemuifiles.zip has an old syntax...
Here is what i did:
1.- Baksmali SystemUI.apk classes.dex with baksmali 1.4.2
2.- Merge smali files from systemuifiles.zip
3.- Smali the folder with smali 1.4.2 and get a new-classes.dex
4.- Baksmali the new-classes.dex with baksmali 2.06 into a folder called "new-smali"
5.- Decompile SystemUI.apk with latest apktool
6.- Delete smali folder from working folder and copy new-smali folder into apktool working folder (renaming it to smali)
7.- Make all the changes
8.- Recompile with latest apktool
That should work, anyway I couldn't get it to work, after patching services.jar and pushing both systemui and services to the device the status bar doesn't change... Don't know why

[Guide] Add "Coloricker" in Settings

4. Knowledge on How to Decompile/Recompile the apk
Lets start ,
1. Decompile your Settings.apk and merge the file (given below).
2. Now open strings.xml and add these lines above </resources>.
PHP:
<string name="dialog_color_picker">Color Picker</string>
<string name="press_color_to_apply">Press on color below to apply</string>
<string name="arrow_right">→</string>
<string name="arrow_down">↓</string>
<string name="hex">Hex:</string>
<string name="hex_hint">\#ff000000</string>
<string name="set">Set</string>
3. Now open ids.xml and add these lines above </resources>.
PHP:
<item type="id" name="hex">false</item>
<item type="id" name="enter">false</item>
<item type="id" name="white_panel">false</item>
