Careful... 9.png files need to be decompiled first before you can modify them.
There not .9 pngs tho

hallo,
i would like to port sense 2.1 themes from HDPI to MDPI, i use this tool to port the .pngs http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=785864 this works. But i dont know what i must do next. can anyone help me? btw. i use this themes http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1048894
Nice themes in the thread you pointed at
I'm not the dev here, but have you tried to put these new graphics in the apk's folder /drawable-mdpi/ and /drawable-land-mdpi/ ?
Maybe you could ask cryshop because he knows something more about the android/htc UI i think
I put the mdpi folders back in the apk but doesn't work, so I think I must edit any other data

Guys, did you look around before posting this?
All you have to do is replace the png files in an existing MDPI theme....
Images should have very similar shapes and exactly the same resolution as the image you're replacing...
See this HOWTO
I don't like to edit the HTC framework. I would like to make apk, like the themes in ogo2 Rom

This would be great if you can port the theme.

I think he means to use another theme as base, for example the Herring.apk from ogo2's Rom and put the new files in there.
but the hering.apk have other folders drawabl-land-mdpi, drawabl-mdpi and drawabl. But in the portet theme are drawabl, drawabl-land-mdpi-v4, drawabl-mdpi-v4, drawabl-port-mdpi-v4.

Try Schiefer.apk, also from ogo2 ROM.

there is no schiefer.apk in system/app
EDIT: is slate.apk with same folders like hering.apk

Is there any difference between the files in the new ported theme and the herring.apk beside the name? I simply would try it without '-v4' in the folder name.
in the hering.apk are 3 drawabl folders in the hdpi 4.
Hi. Can you give me a link to the MDPI skins you have ported, please.
Has anyone had success with this? Anytime I change something and recompile and flash it, my statusbar goes away and I have to reflash the original apk.
Any insight is much appreciated.
Did you try a reboot after flashing? Some of the mods don't show up until you reboot, that's a known issue.

its a signature issue i believe. i was able to flash a modded systemui placing the old sig in after i recompiled. also you can adb push. you need to stop adb before you push and then after you push to phone restart adb
if you open the .apk with winrar and paste the edited files you want in there and close it let winrar update it then you should be able to flash without decompiling and recompiling it with SIG intact

Yep. Your right. That's how I've always edited the pngs. I always use 7zip.

I successfully edited my SystemUI.apk earlier using BetterZip (Mac) without decompiling the apk (just overwrote the old .pngs with the edited ons), deleted the old signed files, and then resigned. Pushed it with adb and rebooted, and voila!

Im not sure how you got that to work... Everytime I have tried that I get the same result and it doesn't work well with the .9.pngs because they have to be decompiled to look right.

Yep just tried again and edited without decompile. Pushed through adb and status bar disappears even after reboot....
If you're editing .9.pngs then yea, those have to be decompiled, but the regular pngs dont' have to be. What exactly are you trying to edit?

Trying to change dropdown background. And some various other things. I am trying to make a systemui to go with my camo skin.
What I would do in the past May b doing to much but I would decompile and edit the .9 pngs then compile the apk then I would extract the .9 pngs from the newly compiled apk and insert them in the original apk..push...and reboot...have a backup just incase

That's not too much really. I do the same thing because you don't always know where the guide lines are on the .9.png when they're compiled.

If I'm not mistaken, that's the status_bar_background.png, and shouldn't have to be decompiled to edit. Are you resigning the apk before you push it back?

I try changing that and it still stays white... but what you guys said earlier worked for the .9.pngs that were giving me issues...
Still have to figure out the dropdown background though because it wont change...

I even changed in framework-res.apk its statusbar background which was a white block... I'm confused
sent from my Evo 3D from xda app
What I have noticed while messing with my systemui.apk is some of the names have changed in the evo 3d. I applied a MattedBlues theme to my systemui and framework, but not everything changed. I went in to see why and some of the names of the png's were just a little bit different on the 3d, then they were on say the Evo 4G.
Also try to push via an while in recovery
There is a code edit that needs to be done in order for the dropdown to be transparent. Once the code is changed you can make it whatever color you want. The status bar is the same way in order to make it trans. I'll see if I can dig up what files they are.
Yesterday I tried to do some mods with rosie, I tried to make rosie working in landscape or make 5x4 app drawer. I use apktool to decompile the apk files, after that I compile, sign and put it onto my HTC wildfire s. After I start the device everything went well, bootscreen, sim unlock and so on. But the homescreen is allways black
Any idea how to solve this problem?

that is different. let me see what i can do, if anything
ok so the reason why it looks small, is because its meant for hdpi devices and we have xhdpi. so all the png's will need to be converted. but let me see if i can decompile it without any errors to make sure there are no xmls that needs to be edited too.
Edit:
Looks like we need 4 edits in an xml. and the png's need to be resized from 80 x 80 to 120 x 120
i am no good with photoshop so we need to find someone willing to do that. it should all work after that.

Ok so you're right, it pulls resources from the .m10 and the pngs are just placements for the app. I've never used the .m10 editor but I have it all set up on my laptop. Going to try and see what I can do with it.
