[GUIDE/REFERENCE/HOW-TO] PCSCII.apk & Settings.apk dissected - HTC EVO 3D

PCSCII.apk dissected​
Below I have unpacked the PCSCII.apk. This APK is responsible for connecting to your PC.
I have numbered the files inside /res/drawable-hdpi and matched them accordingly to what they are responsible for displaying on the phone. Enjoy!
Now you can theme that pesky hard-to-find USB icon!​

Also, inside /res/drawable you will find: common_white_button_press.9.png, common_white_button_rest.9.png, common_white_button_select.9.png
These are the background PNGs for buttons numbered 2 (Charge only) & 3 (Disk drive) in the above screenshots.

Settings.apk
Settings.apk dissected​
Below I have unpacked the Settings.apk. This APK is for settings on the phone and can be accessed by pressing menu then settings, or through the app drawer.
I have numbered the files inside /res/drawable-hdpi and matched them accordingly to what they are responsible for displaying on the phone. Enjoy!
​
PNG #3 common_app_ic_launcher_settings.png - This PNG is the icon that shows up in the app drawer for Settings.
PNGs #30-37 are the PNG files for the animated tutorial that shows when setting a pattern lock.
IMPORTANT:
You may have noticed common_list_highlight_press.9.png, common_list_highlight_selected.9.png, and green_divider.png located inside the /res/drawable-hdpi folder. These look just like button highlight/selected PNGs and the list divider. However, changing these will not change what you think in the settings app. If you want to change the button highlights and list divider they are going to be found in fusion.apk and/or com.htc.resources.apk.

How are you making these? Does it effect the image in the menu background? And can you alter the colours used in things like messaging?

Simply, just replace some images @ drawable, and alter some xml strings.
This was a quick edit, and changing background color in messanging need more time, I was just try to match it with default color theme.

Looks good, I just did the S=Off to the House Boss' phone last night and installed NRGZ' ICS ROM and your skin/theme and she's really digging it... even with as much I work on my own devices, I never forget the number 1 rule "Happy Wife = Happy Life"

Layout Dialler Contacts

I wonder if there is the possibility of changing only the dialing screen? Well, during the sunny days the visualization of the numbers is difficult.

I just wanted to change the dialing screen and keep the rest of the theme.
The second option is better on sunny days.

Thank you very much
With a root explorer locate your /system/app folder and copy phone.apk and dialertabactivity.apk to your SD card.
Copy them to your PC and keep a backup of those apps just in case.
Using 7zip or winrar open the apps. Locate their /res/drawable or res/drawable-mdpi folders. Those contain the graphics. Locate the ones with the numbers and extract them.
Edit the graphics with a good software (not paint, something like Photoshop) and save them without changing their size or format.
Drag the edited .png images to the /res/drawable or drawable-mdpi folder of the apps. Don't extract and repackage the whole app, just drag and drop the edited files in their corresponding folders whike using 7zip or winrar to view the app.
Put the edited apps in your SD and then place them in system/app with rw-r-r permissions.
Reboot, they should work OK. If they don't work (give you Fc) something got screwed in the process, try it again. If all fails, restore your original apps (the ones you backed up) to system/app with proper permissions.

Help Locating Images.

i am Making a Theme With transparent backgrounds and need help in locating the images specified in the following screenshots, i am wanting to make them transparent but need to know the image name and image location, i think they might be in framework/res/drawable-hdpi, but for the life of me cannot locate them.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance Tired Storeman.
Do you mean the WiFi, Bluetooth images from the drop down, as they are in the SystemUI.apk and the ones from the settings picture are located in the Settings.apk
In each apkyou need the res > drawable-hdpi folder
Hey ag4751, thanks for the reply, guess i should have explained my request a bit better, i am trying to give the "wireless and network" and the "device" heading from the Settings screenshot and the "Samsung Account, setup samsung account" from the dropdown notification, a transparent background
Sorry I can't point you to the exact files. I don't have access to my PC to check and there are differences between roms. The settings headers will be something like list_section_header in framework-res, they will be .9pngs and if you zoom in on the image/s you should be able to confirm the correct one/s from the colour used...
For the dropdown notification try systemui/res/values/drawable and there should be a line in there for the notification row background (I'm not sure with this if tw uses an image instead its been a while since I used a Samsung from)
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
Thanks m1keyb, figured out the settings label, it was the tw_dark_header.9.png, now just need to figure out the pulldown notification background
np man, just had another look and the pulldown notification looks like notification_item_background_color & notification_item_background_color_pressed. status_bar_notification_row_background_color is the divider I think.
All in systemui values/ drawables.xml

[Q] Can someone help me edit an apk

Soooo i was wondering if someone thinks they would be able to give me a hand in editing this apk, as i am having a few problem
Hope someone can help

Anyone??
I won't be able to help you but I could tell you how to do that.
1. Get the apk of the keyboard you want to edit.
2. Next Download 7zip if you don't have that.
3. Now extract the apk using 7zip. (Right Click the apk to see 7zip options.)
4. The folder in which all the extracted files and folders are locate "res" folder. In this folder all the images are located.
5. Once you open the RES folder you will have folders like hdpi, mdpi, etc...
6. Now open up any such folder you like. There you will be able to see the stock emoji icons. Replace them with the ones you want. Make sure you crop them so they keep the same size like the once you replaced.
7. Open the APK file with 7zip and delete the files you had replaced.
8. Now in the APK add the files which you added in the extracted folder. (Add the emojis which you added in the RES folder) Add them to the folders where you had deleted the stock images.
You could press the thanks button now as the tutorial has finished.
