[Q] DHD - remap rosie customize button

Hi, do you know a way to remap "rosie customization button" ?
Actually I do not need any shortcut to customize the style and I would like to replace this dock button by another action such as starting a custom app.
Is there any APK for it ?
Thanks
Nico

There already is a thread about this and fortunately also a solution. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=887208
You need the LaunchKey app from the market, which will start any application you want.
Afterwards just flash the attached zip file (Rosie-signed.zip).
If it doesn't work for some reason you can also push Rosie.apk to /system/app/
The button will now launch the app you selected in LaunchKey.

After you installed LaunchKey, just push the attached APK to /system/app/ and overwrite the original Rosie. (no time to make a flashable zip right now, sorry, if you need one tell me and I'll create one later)
The button will now launch the app you selected in LaunchKey.

yep, I'm really interested on it, so if you can spend some time on it, it would be great !
thanks

Nevermind, I actually had a bit more time than I thought, so I created the zip.
I updated the post so the steps are like this now:
1.) Install LaunchKey
2.) Set LaunchKey to launch the desired app
3.) Boot into recovery and flash zip
4.) Reboot & enjoy

Thank you, it seems to work, as I can see a small star on the right button... BUT... what should I do if I want to use it with my Sense 3.0 ?
Actually I'm using the "[ROM][Jul 04][ACE] Virtuous Unity 1.27.0 Sense 3.0 based on Pyramid" and I would like to keep this ROM...
thanks
Nico

Ah sorry, I didn't know you were on Unity.
Could you post your Rosie.apk here? I'll look into it and then we will see.

Ty so much. Finaly someone created rosie remap that look like original with just button that actually do something useful.
(Core have one also, more colorful than I like but it is good one).
I never understand why ppl care more about shiny transparent black or white things than a real functionality. But, c'est la vie.
One thing it is not to much.
Can u also make (if u have time) app drawer 5x5 or 5x4. I can live without that but I also used to it using core mod Rosie Remap.
Ty again,

Check out he_stheone64's Rosie on Steroids mod. (can't find the link right now)
It includes transparency, multi column app drawer and the remap.

I know, I try it and it has ugly shadow over rosie.
I follow all rosie remaps from first thread (link is above in this thread) and believe me this is best one for 2.1 Rosie (if u like stock look)
and also CoreMod (if u like shiny colorful stuff with many combinations of drawer and transparency mode).
I must admit I never found Rosie 3.0 remap that is one reason I never try Unity rom.

I have got an idea, but haven't tested it yet.
Unfortunately I am going to be on a vacation for the next 10 days, so I can't continue my work.
Maybe someone else will finish it in the meantime. If no one does however, I'll continue working on it when I come back.

jeje, don't worry; nobody's born knowing =)
and so far not yet, but I'm working on it.

Sounds Cool, =) but I´m using now MiniModX on Galaxy Mini xD, cause the other Launchers don't put my pictures in Home Screen like I want..

Ok, I've installed it. Everything's fine, except the power button icons. The reboot, recovery and download icons are smileys..
Wallpaper works fine for me, I've tried andro-id, minimod and parasmi's rom.. all works fine
Can't wait for more themes

*bump*
So, I made a little change from HoneyLagoon V2
Edited some icons, dialer, bar (sorry, not transparent)
works great with the previous generic rom.
it has some bugs with the current EmanoN rom though since I'm not the one who create this theme

Hi,
What xml file did you edit to change the background color of the menu icons? Can't seem to find the right file
Edit:
Solved. It's 9png file

[Q] Need to locate these files? Help please

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?

I will look into the removal of the search grid on the stock launcher,
As for the recent... u want the button just removed in its entirety? If so that's easy..
If u r wanting something else u may need to add more detail...
For instance how would u switch between task? Or if u don't use it I can remove it completely

In this picture on the far left - where it says Calculator, Calendar .... (this is the pop up that shows when you hit the "recent" button on your softkey bar.) This popup is what I wanted to be removed or have an option to toggled off, so that it does not show. Is that possible? Let me know what you find out about the Google Search grid - that would be epic!

u mean change only icons ? if thats the case , then u need a theme manager to change the theme. some themes change only icons, some change everything. but the icon set is inside a theme. themes support specific launchers. so its possible that ur favorite launcher doesnt support ur favorite theme ( for the icons ). the other way around is to use a root explorer and change every little icon manually inside apks.

well... I want to change only the app launcher button icon (u can c in the pic that I attached) and I don't want to change the original rom launcher.
so I guess ill need to do it in the other way that you mentioned.
if u can tell me what to change and where to change (what apk 2 change) it would be great.
I want 2 change only the app launcher button icon .
thanks

Better yet, you can make your own theme. Go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=44609532
You can get everything you need to know about making your own theme there.
BTW, thanks for searching the Forum/Web first, because some people just don't.
Good luck

if u know what u are looking for then u can find it. the app launcher is not what u are looking for. its called App Drawer. so u are looking for android App Drawer icon.

the stock one is LGHome3.apk.
since u use an alternative launcher look for it in data/app. apps u install go there. in system/app are the system apps that have root access.

well I found it as u said, it's LGHome3.apk.
used ninjamorfh, exchanged the icons, finished my project and wooow: I soft brick my phone
the launcher disappeared and after reset it was stuck in the logo.
so after about 4-5 nervous hours of pushing apk thru adb, recovery, software reset, wiping it all , download rom, flash stock rom with kdz,
restore my 120 apps, restoring backup files, I was able to bring my 4x back to life as it was before.
so conclusion :
some things don't worth to **** with :laugh: LOL
if u want to change ur app drawer icon don't be hard headed like me, create a theme or install a launcher that can do it.
anyway,
anyone that helped me in this thread .....thanks

i guess there is a reason why there is no app that can change manually the app drawer icon, It could get messy.
I used ninjamorph app (root app), it should decompile/recompile the apk automatically.

if it is only for icon , u can just treat the apk as if it was a zip. just open it with the zip manager and force the icon to replace the one u want.
