Hi,
how can I theme the settings menu?
Change color, change images and group settings like they are grouped in MIUI.
Want to make with Stock ROM this menu: http://www.techcredo.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/10/miui-settings-ui-overhaul.jpg
Instead of this ugly one: http://mydailygadget.mdg.netdna-cdn.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/settings1-300x500.jpg
What things I have to change or look at?
framework-res.apk...?
Which phone do you have dude??? And yeah if u have rooted then flash a miui rom instead of theming stock.... It's actually impossible to do this to a stock rom but because of the settings. Try the miui if u have rooted.
Hit the Thanks Button if I have helped.
Thx for the reply.
Yeah, MIUI is nice but I wanted to try CM7 and I liked everything but the UI of the settings.
I know it's possible to change the appearance of the settings menu. I found the xml files in the framework-res.apk but when I recompile and use the new file my phone ends up in a bootloop.
Can anyone help?
I have a SG S2.
Is it possible to edit a CM7 theme ?
I've been using this Win7 theme and i've got 2 minor problems
1)Is it possible to change the status car in this theme ?
Ie make the pull down men in status bar semi transparent or transparent ?
2)There's any way to edit only a few aspects of this theme ? By replacing parts of another CM7 theme
Noob question i know ^

And mod i wasnt quite sure where i should've posted this, so i thought General would be fine
Man do we need an Neo/Neo V Q&A
just decompile the framework and systemUI etc...edit the 9.png files as your liking or just replace them with the images of choice from other theme...for transparency in status bar...i think UOT kitchen may help.
by the way...i am not an expert and dont know much about CM themes...ha ha ha...i have just edited stock themes for my liking...and i dont decompile them...just unzip them and rezip after editing.
Hi guys. Galaxy Ace 2.3.6, rooted, successfully uninstalled several system apps (allshare, samsung apps, etc.), and using a market-downloaded launcher.
Now I want to customize my Ace even more without installing a custom ROM. I know some people do it via ADB. Is this possible with Ace? Suppose I already have the SDK and ADB installed, then what? Can anyone provide step by step instructions, please?
Like if I wanted to make the pull-down menu (where the shortcuts of wifi, bluetooth, sound, gps, and auto-rotate are located) semi-transparent, I think it's possible with ADB, I just don't know how to go about it.
Also, changing the font color and font size, for example.
Many thanks!
Complicated

I know it's for HTC Desire, so I'm asking if it would work on Galaxy Ace.
I can't find similar tutorials for Ace.
If anyone knows how to do it, please teach me. =)
Thank you!
Its deconpiling the apks

Get apk tool. Now you can decompile apps to edit graphics and code.
Inside the res folder you find graphics. Edit them with a good program and you can change transparency, colors, whatever.
SystemUI.apk and Framework-res.apk Have the notification and Status bar. Also check UOT Kitchen, make changes and compare to the original files.
Other apks for UI changes include Settings.apk, dialer, diáltab, Shutdown, etc.
Just dive in and experiment. As long as you got a Backup youll be alright.

dxppxd, have you done all that with your galaxy ace?
I have succesfully put a semitransparent Black Status bar, changed the looks of many icons (including check boxes, circles, the USB mass storage android picture, etc ) and changed the toggles icons to ICS style (I took the ones from tj_droids ICS stock theme).
Also got the ddkq8 lockscreen with centered clock, and added status bar icons from UOT Kitchen.
I'll post my framework and systemui apks later today (stock ddkq8) when I get home so you can open them and check them out (compare the files inside them with your own). Changing graphics is easy all you really need is winrar or 7zip and a graphics editor . Adding more settings, expanded menus, etc, that's the complicated part, you need apk tool.
Check this great tut

Hi, I downloaded a theme and I´ve made some mods on the layout and stuff like that. is there a way to save that as a theme? so the next time a change themes and want to go back to the one I have now I can just select it, instead of having to modify the downloaded theme again?
simply export the theme under a different name m8
in themer browse themes
settings/advanced/export theme
just change the name

i think its a hard coded lockscreen, you have to uncompile lockscreen and change xml values to restore position, change font, etc.. i recommend uncompiling an aosp version of lockscreen and comparing xml values with our lockscreen to set right position and font, also in case you dont know, im talking about decompiling using apk tool, not the normal apk extraction, because you need the xml files
I don't have enough time and knowledge.. ;/
