Probably more of a general Android question, but thought I'd give it a go here. On way to work shortly, so apologies for my lack of proper search.
Once upon a time on my SGS, someone showed me where these icons are located - I'm sure I'll find them again, but I guess I'll have to do some kind of text realignment, which is probably out of my depth.
I just want my contacts to show as a list - no icons, no photos.
Stock KE2, rooted via CWM, have Root Explorer.
Many thanks to anyone who can point me in the right direction - will do further research when I get to work.

Might not be what you want but you could replace the image with a blank one in the framework or twframework file.

No. Pictures(res\drawable-hdpi-finger\contacts_default_image_small_01 - 05.png) are in Contact.apk file. When I remove'em from it - empty spaces remain there - so it's not expand Contacts lines to that space... So we need to encrease table row size...
Well, the contacts db is located here:
/data/data/com.android.providers.contacts/databases/contacts2.db
I don't know how you plan to decipher this file. It's neither xml nor plist (like iphone).

I just checked go contacts ex and it can do what you want via a setting. Works very well.

The contacts2.db is a sqlite database file. You'll need the sqlite3 executable to view it's contents (eg. sqlite3 contacts2.db).
Don't think it'll do what the OP wants as it contains contact details and not the layout of the contact list. Think you'll need to decompile the apk and edit one of the drawable/*.xml files.
Haven't really looked at this but a guess would be it's one of the .XMLs in res/laout in the Contact.apk where you can edit out the imageview for the photo.
Yep, looks like it's in res/layout/favorite_contact_list_item.xml
Someone's reading my mind - I was thinking of bumping this thread last night... spooky!
As suspected, I'm out of my depth here - but thanks for the replies everyone, I may try to get back into my depth over the weekend. It's one of those not-really-a-big-deal-but-it-still-bugs me things.
Just switched from adw to Go launcher. Not a fan of 3rd party apps for contacts/SMS, but I'll give it a look.
Thanks again to all.
I tried GO launcher. Wasn't a fan of it. Anyway on ICS these picture icons are even more of a pain! Why do you need a picture of yourself next to every text you send in the thread!?!? And why do you need a picture of the person you are texting next to their text. Have a picture of the person on the list of threads fine.... but not in the thread itself thats stupid and takes up to much screen space.
Who wrote that into ICS? Not an improvement!
Has anymore found a way to change it in ICS?
Hey,
I want to theme the Stock android keyboard (4.0 and 4.1 which is.. at least of the theming and images and colors and so on.. the same).
I ahve done everything but one thing.
I want to make it completely black and i have succeeded so far.
But i cant find the file that gives the color for the background of the suggestion field (where the suggested words are shown in). That field is still grey....
Does anyone know, in which file that color is given?
Thanks in advance!
EDIT:
// NEVERMIND... found it.. it´s just another 9.png ...
I must have been blind..

Hi Guys,
I've done a bit of research on this, and it looks like it is possible to change out the lock screen icon images with a little bit of work. I'm a bit confused on what folder I need to look into and what app_icon.png I need to replace in the .apk. Basically I have navigated to /data/app/<apk>/res, and I'm guessing the file I need to change is in the mipmap-xxhdpi? Is this the only one I need to worry about?
Second part, which I'm not sure is possible, is the icons that I want to use are from an app I purchased (Stark to be specific). Since this is an .asec file, you can't navigate this and pull the images, which is understandable. Is there anyway you guys can think of getting my lock screen icons themed with the Stark icon pack?
Thanks in advance,
Steve
With SMS messages, android by default turns this : ) into this (figuratively)
Where might the code be located that does this text to png recognition? I know the png themselves are located in the framework-res.apk but couldn't fine the code that pulls those png whenever anyone types in : P.
My friend and I want to try and insert keywords that are recognized by the phone to insert a new png emoticon. We know that only we will see the emoticons when anyone types the keyword but that is our goal.
I tried looking around the framework-res.apk for this but all I found were animations and images.
It is actually stored in the font files for Android. Back in my htc rezound days I wrotea file that enabled the jellybean emoticons on ics. I can't remember off hand where those files are or what you need to change, not sure if samsung handles its fonts the same. But hopefully this helps you some. I can look into it at some point for you
Does anyone know where the font directory is that Oakley is talking about?
Or anyone have any more insight?
Where are they? I checked the framework-res and SystemUI of an AOSP rom, and they're just not there. Does anyone know?

Changing them changes nothing. I've also been looking, haven't found them yet
has anybody found where the battery can be changed?I changed and added my mods in almost every apk, such as contacts,sytemui,framework-res,dialer you name it -I have them in there but still shows the default very frustrating!Same thing with the dial pad it also shows default on the initial dialer but the in-call dialer I was able to theme.
EDIT Nevermind -I have found out the battery among some otherthings are now generated in code in 4.4 ,So sorry to all the modders that like to change things easy.It will now require much more to make changes that were once a matter of changing a few png files or maybe and xml here and there.Lerts hope there are themers out there that find a way around this
I found this post what mean that battery icons is draw by code:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2513466
Right now, the only thing I could find is how to add the % number in the icon.

Before.
As the icons are drawn, can't we remove the goto scrpt and use a old drawn icon xml file
try my last mod guys, it can be found in my signature..
