I am trying to change the status bar colour in framework-res.apk
I have changed the files but, when i put them on my phone it will not boot
So i tryed NinjaMorph.
It just gets stuck at Working, please wait...
The loading circle thing is going round but it doesn't appear to be doing anything
Any help:? Please?
First you have to deodex the rom . Both the /system/framework and /system/app .
If it is done then you will be able to edit the files needed to change look.
How to deodex them??
Searched and couldn't find just this...a black notification pull down. I think I am one of the few that likes the stock look just want a black/ transparent pulldown and don't want a whole new theme to get it. I am running dl30 BTW. I KNOW THAERE ALOT OF REQUEST BUT HOPEFULLY MINE IS EASY TO FULL FILL WITH A COUPLE OF OPTIONS TO ADD AS A ZIP FOR THOSE THAT LIKE A SEMI-STOCK LOOK. HOPE TO SEE A COUPLE SOON.
THANKS IN ADVANCE
A little FYI...I really like the midnight pulldown and buttons....many others are nice as well..
This can be done by modifying the png images in the framework i believe. If you use 7zip to extract it and then edit with photoshop or gimp and save the png and put back into the framework file.
If i am wrong somebody can correct me though.
bump....seems easy but I am an idiot with this phone?!?
I want it also
I pulled out the files and changed everything and put it back into the apk file. When I put it back on my phone I didnt get any changes. I thought I read that if your only changeing pics, this is all that was needed.
I posted asking if there was something I was missing but no answer.
I have the changes if I could get the phone to take them.
Yeah i tried ti compile it too just now....fail.

Attach your framework-res.apk & twframework-res.apk and let me look at it. It will be hard to give an accurate explanation without first doing this.
EDIT: Or do what nitsuj said below and it should work. Your probably having problems with .9 pngs

to do what you are trying to do.......grab the twframework-res.apk from your phone by pulling it with adb...or simple version just grab it out the rom you are currently using by moving the og rom file to your desktop and use 7zip to extract it.
now use 7zip again to extract the drawable-hdpi folder from the apk.
swap out status_bar_background.9 for a transparent one you grabbed from another theme...or you can make one by yourself...but its a .9 image so you ll have to patch it in 9 patch.
if you want to avoid that heres a transparent one for you http://dl.dropbox.com/u/15331201/rom/transparentbackground.zip (just extract it and swap it)
open up the twframework with 7zip again and copy this drawabl-hdpi folder over the old one....then you can push this framework back to your phone...or just take one of our theme update.zips and open it up with 7zip...go into the system folder, delete the app and font folders...go into the framework folder and delete whats theres and place the twframework-res.apk in it....put the zip file on ur sdcard...boot to recovery and flash it
Thanks
Thanks for the tips guys. I will work on this today and have something later.
as soon as I get back to my comp I am going to try and fix it...
Hi to everyone i have this problem:
I use this rom
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1019818
and i am trying to make some changes to framework-res.apk
I pull it out and changed some pngs.
When i push it back and restarted my phone i show the new theme but when i unlock the phone i am having a persistent fc from fonts.apk and the only solution is to pull the battery out and do a nandroid restore..
What i did exactly:
pulled out framework-res.apk with root explorer
I changed the pngs through 7zip
I pushed the new framework-res.apk back and gave the right permissions
An other thing is that when i tried to do the whole proccess through apk-manager i had a lot of .9 pngs errors.Is this a reason for the fonts.apk to fc?
I am new at this and i need your help
Thank you for your time
[SOLVED]
How did you solve it? Might help others.

Because I over wrote the Default systemui, to get a sweeter looking battery icon. I can not do the over the air update that VZ is Pushing. Need help, either I need a uncompressed default systemui.apk or ideas on how to install the update.
Here you go!

First Thanks that was quick! Second if I read correctly, I should just be able to install and reboot correct? then goes back to the battery or do I over write?
Just copy the file to your sd card, then move it to your /system/app folder. Once it is there, check the permissions by long tapping and going to permissions. The permissions for this file should be :
Owner - rw
Group - r
Others - r
I am pretty sure this should do it, obviously reboot after all of this, not sure if you need to wipe anything, but I don't see why you would.
PS I am using root browser, so depending on your file manager, adjust accordingly
Im sorry I need the default framework-res.apk also

IT worked but I had to fix the checksum on the file I replaced, but thanks to all.
Good stuff, I'm glad it worked
Hi, How can I change the default Blue BG Image in stock rom's framework for x8 ? I tried copying the res apk file to pc and extracted it with winrar changed and replaced the image using photoshop then again compressed it using winrar "Normal" compression but renamed the extension to .apk instead of .rar... copied the apk to the phone but I was stuck on the 3 Logo Then I had to use xrecovery to get back..
what am I doing wrong here ? I just want to change the BG Image?
Thanks
copy framework-res.apk from system/sdcard to pc, now using 7zip or winrar extract framework-res.apk, now u should get a folder with similar name, in that folder go to res/drawable-mdpi, here edit the blue background image, now open the file framework-res.apk with 7zip, inside apk go to res/drawable-mdpi, here drag n drop ur edited image, now push the apk into system/framework.
# always make backup of the file u r messing with.

btw u need to root your device to mod anything, u wont be able to play with /system untill ur device is rooted.. following the rooting guide to root.
Thanks will try and report back. +1, is it necessary to use 7zip ? can I use winrar ?
No its not necessary, u can use winzip, winrar.

U didnt fixed the permission.!!
Do u rooted ur device?
If yes then plug in the cable and connect it to pc , turn on the phone, let it stuck. Now use qtadb to push the original apk, reboot n u r done.
Ah! As u said u'll use xrec, means ur device is already rooted just use qtadb to push apk
Yup thanks mate, but I've already used xrecovery to go back to 13 days earlier state, downloading qtadb looks handy, what did I do wrong anyway ? used root explorer directly while in phone?
no I didn't set any permissions as you didn't mention such thing , sorry
Sorry my fault perhaps. When u copied the framework, long press on copied file, choose permission make it like:
XX
X
X
Yes qtadb is handy instead of using root exp to copy file. u can directly push file from system to phone, through qtadb u, I think dont need to set permissions. I think u should use 7zip.
alright the, but the phone went off as soon as I copied the file, how could I set permissions then ? I will try somedays with this utility, thanks alot
Hmm,, problem seems quit unusual, use 7zip to change edited.png in original apk, n push through qtadb,, may b it'll work, try and then respond, if no success then upload your apk n i"ll do the change...
