Actually Im trying to change it to become like the theme in the link I posted in the OP. That theme wasnt made for my rom (stock) so I'm trying to accomodate myself. Ive used apk manager and ninjamorph too but this one is weird. Everytime I push to system/app it either disappears or the stock green one shows up. I finally got it changed a little but its the older version (idk how it became the older version considering I used the newer version and changed png) and its still mostly green. Is there another apk I must change? Thanks for the help!
Did you try going under settings, manage applications, market...and uninstalling updates...that fixed my vending.apk problems

the newest Market is 2.3.3 make sure thats the one your working with...
From reading a few other themed ROM sections, lots of people with themed ROMS are seeing their themed market apk revert back you the green market.
One suggestion was deleting the market updater apk, clearing ur updates and cache in the themed market apk, and then re-pushing the themed market apk back to system/app.
This worked for me when I was using gingerRED.
Goodluck.

The version I have is 2.21 & how do I uninstall updates?
Here, this is 2.3.2 CWM flashable, neon blue market. It will not update and change back to green unless you want it to. I already skipped two updates and very happy since it didn't change. You might have to reboot a couple of times before it changes and if it doesn't wipe data for market and reboot.

Oh your not off the hook that easy, tell me how you did the market thing? I tried pushing every possible way and got stuck with an older version even though that version was never even used, extracted or saved anywhere phone or pc. You have to tell me!!!
Also that application/program doesnt contain the market app so....

Lol, I didn't make it, it was made already. I got it from someone few weeks back. not sure who made it but there is another thread for someone customizing market except I didn't see the neon blue one in there.

Ok I'm seriously doing something wrong because now Im trying to change my framework-res.apk and keep getting force closes. All I'm changing is .png not even .9.png. What am I doing wrong? Here are my stepsall using apk manager)
extract apk
change images as needed
optimize images
zip apk (using system option)
take apk and push to system/framework using various methods
the end
ps. all images exchanged are from roms or themes not supported by the stock rom. I get the images to go after Im done but also get hit by a million force closes.

I used Titanium pro donate version and froze the market updater. After that I used Root Explorer and copied the themed vendor apk and pasted it to system/app. Worked perfectly. I did have to reboot initially and it worked. Hope this helps.

Oh, that was the statusbar widget. I'm at home, but it's quite late already. You can extracts the framework res and/or systemui from the zip of the T. E. A. M. ROM which is in the development section, otherwise I can send you the file tomorrow maybe. Or if your good with photoshop you could create it yourself.

thanks,but no thanks if you are talking about this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1465537
it isn´t working...tried it and the statusbar dissappeared I had all the right permissions set and rebooted...nada so I restored the original systemui.apk
I can't read all post but if you want transparent status bar .
Rename app .zip
Unzip it find status bar bg (black bar)
Now simple PC program paint.net
Go to layers now transparency
Set to 150 save if you haven't or can't do post here let me know if that's all you want I'll do for you
No problem I'm doing other stuff

Here's statusbar_background.png.
I tried to replace it with the default file in framework-res, but I can't notice any changes.
Here's the framework-res I modded.
I tried replacing the framework-res provided by you sdk16420 and now Im in a bootloop I backed up my original framework on a sdcard.I think I didnt properly replace the framework-res.apk I renamed the modified one to framework-res2.apk and copied to the system framework folder...then I deleted the original one there and all the apps started crashing until I was left with the black screen...then I managed to reboot it...and now Im in a bootloop can I somehow replace the original one from my sdcard with the one that is currently in the system framework folder ? through adb or something ? And thank you korma when I get out from this bootloop Ill attach my original framework-res.apk and if your not too busy then maybe you could mod it for me because Im not too good with modifying apks ?
Ok so I didnt find a way to restore it with adb...I know its possible,but I just didnt have time to look around for an answer so I reinstalled the rom.
So here is my framework-res.apk could someone please modify it and reupload it and tell me how to properly replace it so I dont end up in a bootloop again ? Thank you

Yeah... It's a tricky issue. Since device is odexed, all customizations don't work.
Eg. : if you replace only the battery icon/any icon in notification bar by a flashable zip....notification will disappear and will cause lag and graphics disorder in the device.
Solution :
Flash the original system ui.apk. Mere replacing the apk and setting permission might not work.

Isn't it flashing systemui.apk and replacing it, setting permission works same?
During flashing you extract to /system/app and set the permissions.

100% same. But during live replacement it will end up in a tornado of fc on system ui.apk. So I prefer flashing system stuffs to avoid "this and that" fc.
i want to ask if any body tried already to remove menus from settings like i want to hide the about phone on stock settings.apk deodexed on jb 4.2 i want to get rid of some menus in my settings i ported dakele os to mtk6589 so i would like to ask if how to? since it is a ported rom some of the menus are not a feature of my stock rom and i want to hide or remove them just to prevent boot loop for example like this in the attachment below i want to get rid of the ad block or sensor_cali .. ..
i badly need help kinda excited to release my ported rom hehe
TIA:good::fingers-crossed:
uppdate: ive done some experement in settings_header.xml i tried to change the name of about phone to phone only and it works so my conclusion is settings_headers changes the appearance of the settings menu
I have not used ICS or JB much but it's possible.
I know exact process of how to do that on GB but not ICS. You'll have to decompile Settings.apk and look for the xml which controls the layout of app.

Which tool are you using to compile apps? And System apps don't need to be signed. Maybe that's the problem.
If you want, you can check out Ultimate Guide in Android Development Section which shows how to correctly compile system apps. Its sticky(noun, not an adjective ) there

Hi guys !
I'm having a problem recompiling the systemui.apk, i'm modding some .xml files and everything goes fine, it recompiles ok but when i push it to my phone there's no change i decompile the modified apk and the xml files aren't change either it's like i didn't change anything from them.
Every single time a recompile an apk it goes back to normal
Does anyone else has that problem or is just me , and does someone knows how can i fix that problem?
INFO :
Windows 8 pro
Using : Apktool , Auto apktool and tickle my android (in all of them i get that same problem)
Thanks in advance, regards
