[Q] Please Help a Themer locate a PNG - HTC Rezound

I've been searching for this PNG for hours now. I need assistance with finding the folder it's in. I've search countless APK's. All the usual places but still can't find it. Please advise so I can get on with my life. lol. It's the long gray/green PNG at the very bottom(sorry, I'm color blind).

I also can't locate this PNG. I've been looking for at least a good day. It's the menu that pops up when you select "menu".

This Is An Educated Guess; Wouldn't That Be In Either The SystemUI.apk Or framework-res.apk?

Thanks but I've checked in those apk's. So much that I need to know now what's the name of the png and which folder it's in. Not just what apk.

Look Inside The SystemUI.apk And Look Inside The drawable-hdpi There's A Bunch Of Status Bar .png's.

Doesn't the fusion.apk have something to do with some kind of part of theming? I'm probably wrong, but it's just a guess.

It does on some ROMS but after porting over an m10 fusion.apk from Sense 3.0 and seeing that one PNG not change, I beg to differ.

I think that's in com.htc. resources

I checked out the page. It helps but then again it doesn't. I need to know the specific file name + folder location. I have 186 apk's to go through not including folders so it can make it very difficult to run a search without knowing the exact name and location of the PNG.

I believe it's the "common_panel_fullscreen_base.9.png" for the bottom button menu on the app screen. The background for the popup menu is in smali I believe. If I'm incorrect, someone please correct me.

Okay, I went through all the "common" png's and I think I found it. Try this one "common_black_background.9.png".

The search continues! Themed that PNG as well and still no change. I should also point out, I HIGHLY doubt the PNG is located in "Skins aka m10 file". I think this because I swapped out the m10 completely and it still hasn't changed. I'm sure someone here on XDA knows where this PNG is hiding.

After looking at them more closely, they look like sense specific icons...is there a place for those somewhere?

Long press on the file (Mms.apk) and select copy.
Navigate to system/app/ and while doing so make sure to press the "mount R/W" button at the top of the screen.

I think I can help with that. When I first started tweaking Samsung mms, I came upon a thread from MikeyMike01 of the Captivate threads who made that nice Gingerbread version I have on Tweaker. In the thread were instruction on changing the text color. I'll try to provide you with a link later on or shoot a pm to MikeyMike01.

I'm not sure if it will make any difference, but the write box under "Group" should be unchecked too. At least that's how everything is in System/app.

AMAZING, I read a post from this thread that mentioned decompiling the apks. This got me thinking about doing this with the stock Mms.apk to figure out how Samsung did the 9patch boundaries for the message pressed bubble. I've figured it out! Should have some completed themes up tomorrow!

There must be corrupt files or unfinished XML edits. Try to reflash, but remove everything in the zip that's under system>app EXCEPT Systemui.apk.
I've got Black Menus on this framework-res. I need more time before I can look at the XMLs. Just replace the original framework-res in your zip with this one.

It's looking pretty awesome. I too tried to flash this and some slight issues. But it's good to see that a red theme is but a few tweaks away from becoming a reality. If you need a tester...hit me up...I'm down for trying out anything.

go to this thread and get the lockring kit (theres 2 one for 2.3.3 and one for 2.3.4)
then you need to do this "Inside Idlescreen_Base.apk, decompile Lockscreen_shortcut.m10, in the editor tab expand the last item and you'll see Lockscreen_Shortcut, highlight it and under Known Properties make Visible = 0."
and thats thanks to triscuit1983

Something like this?
In terms of the carrier I used the QPST method a long time ago to remove the carrier banner. There are probably other methods but I haven't searched for any since mine is gone.
Before I give you any instructions on removing the time, are you familiar with M10Editor.exe?
That is exactly what I'm looking for. Not familiar with m10. Is it simple enough to figure out? I think I can manage.
Edit... Ok, just looked it up. I will download it and play around with it later today.

Go to the above link, I made a mini tutorial on using M10Editor.exe, it doesn't relate to what your doing, but the idea is the same.
Here is how you get rid of the time and date:
Load Idlescreen_Base.apk.
In the m10 files tab highlight 3rd to last item (Lockscreen_time.m10) and click Decompile/Show button.
In the editor tab expand the last item until you see lockscreen_time.
Highlight lockscreen_time and look to the right in the editor window.
Under "Known Properties" make Visible = 0.
Go back to the start tab and click save file.
Push through adb or put in a flashable zip and flash.

Matte.apk is the skin... the skin does not actually hold the M10 files that contain stuff(clock,dock,widgets...) for Rosie(launcher)... The M10 files needed to change that stuff are in other apks which we cannot edit because the M10 tools dont work for sense 3.5 and up
And yes... our modded skins that we make are different from HTCs stock skins... thats why ours can change that kind of stuff inside our skins

yeah not to mention HTC appearently has their own custom .9.png tool for sense 4 too so those get messed up when you decompile then recompile... which is what causes the stripes to stretch in things like the statusbar

[REQ] Soft Key Mod help

I am running CM9 Alpha 3 and I have always wanted soft keys on my X2 because I just do not like the hard buttons. I found the thread about how to enable them on ICS Roms and it is fairly simple to do. I contacted DK on twitter to see if he may add them in a later update and he said he was not going to add them. I tried to do it last night and I just could not get APKTool to re-compile the Framework-res.apk.
Could someone who is able to re-compile an .apk possibly try this for me, it is only 2 edits to a couple of .xml files inside of the Framework-res.apk and adding 4 .png files to the SystemUI.apk. I only need the Framework-res.apk as I have already added the .png's to my SystemUI.apk. Here is the link to the mod and thank you to whoever will do it for me.
How to enable soft keys
Or you could download Button Savior and save yourself the headache.

Thanks but its not the same and it gets in the way. The mod is very easy to do, I just cannot get APKTool to re-compile. The whole mod takes less than ten minutes.

I heard if you used 7-Zip, you can take files out and put them in without extracting and messing with the APKs signature. Maybe you can just use it to take out the XML file and edit it and put it back in with the images too. Then replace the file on your phone.

Thanks but, you have to edit the bool.xml inside the framework-res.apk/res/values and the only way to get to it is to de-compile it.

Ah. Well Id help if I knew how to decompile and recompile. But I dont. Sorry man.
Not being a DB,but I guess I'm confused. You wont be able to use the soft key area but for only that. At least with the Button Savior app, you can tap it and it disappears. You don't loose any screen space. Then again, it doesn't look as cool as the soft keys......

Your not being a DB. Button Savior would always be in the way whereas the soft keys would stay out of the way with only taken up about 37 px ( about the size of the status bar ). I just think with the size of our screens that it would benefit the experience.

Well, I got the framework-res.apk to re-compile but the arsc file is half the size it was and when flashed I get a USB error that says something like " activity?$%'*: USB is not responding please select a USB application ".

What exactly is it you don't like about the buttons, if you don't mind me asking?

All the phones I have owned before this one have had capacitive buttons. Not to sound too lazy but, having to physically press the button vs just tapping the screen is annoying to me plus I like the way it looks.

So i was messing around with this and got the apk and zip signed. But when I flashed the zip it bootlooped. It went through one cycle like it would start up, flashed the lock screen, then went back to boot screen. When it flashed the screen it looked like there was a place where the soft keys should be that was just black and the rest of the screen had not been resized to fit it the keys were in place. I have a video uploading if anybody wants to see what happened(I'll add it when it's finished).
I should add, I'm not too concerned with having these, I just thought it would be an interesting project to try out. Seems like there are at least a few people that would use this.
Edit: Here is the link to the video

Boom. Got them on here. Having some of the market compatibility issues though.

Haha I'll try to make a zip. Never have before though. I just changed what I needed to and repackaged dzk's alpha 3.
Again though, the screen looks pretty weird in parts. I'm going to try to find a fix for that tomorrow. Apparently it's something with the dpi of the screen. I'm pretty new to this so I'll have to do some digging

That looks good, I personally don't need 'em but I know other people will.

Well no rush. I sometimes get annoyed at night by my buttons lol. I'll definitely use those when alpha 4 comes out

if it helps fascinate cm9 doesnt have the onscreen soft keys, except the OG ones that came from samsung
