Hey guys,
I am customizing ICS LP8 Rom. Any one know how what I need to edit in "framework-res.apk" to make the drop down notification background from status bar transparent??
Tks
I think you want twframework-res.apk, not framework-res.apk.
After decompiling, look in twframework-res.apk/res/drawable-hdpi for status_bar_item_background_normal.9.png.
Sorry, actually, I think it's in SystemUI.apk? I can't remember... but the file name is still status_bar_item_background_normal.9.png, I believe.
EDIT: Boy, I'm rusty.
Should be in framework-res.apk after all: /res/drawable-hdpi/status_bar_background.png.

Ok, I was looking at an old project when I de-compiled framework-res.apk to mod my battery icon. Could be out-dated and wrong... give me a sec.
EDIT: hold on, actually. Are you on odexed stock? Because I am.... and it could be different for you if you are deodexed, or running a custom ROM.
EDIT 2: ok, I've downloaded my (stock, odexed) framework-res.apk, twframework-res.apk, and SystemUI.apk. I found my notification background in both framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk, both in /res/drawable-hdpi, both named status_bar_background.png. I'm not sure which one it is though.

Hmm... then I'm guessing it would be in your SystemUI.apk. Check there. Decompile, look in /res/drawable-hdpi for all the images starting with "status_bar...".
If you don't find it there, look in the same location, same criteria, in framework-res.apk.

Look inside systemUI.apk, should be in there, not in framework-res.apk...
Hello Developers,
I want to know how to add the data toggle in notification.
I saw the need to change SystemUI.apk (xml and Smali) but this does not seem to be enough because I have the CF's.
Can you tell me more?
Thank you!
yes please
Yeah i was under the impression that it's Kernel/ROM dependent but its a massive feature im missing coming from a HTC desire running CM7 and im not up for testing the CM nightlies with a new baby to look after just in case my wife needs me asap lol
Please What do not say how to add the data toggle

Wrong thread. You can find out more on " Samsung Galaxy S2 Q&A"
No one answers in Q & A as seems to be the case here.
Why no one wants to unravel the mystery
cerede2000 is right, this is a key feature, that I personally would love to see, on a stockish sgs2 rom.
I've recently noticed the appearance of the data toggle, which was promising, but no way to customise.
perhaps now that the devs are getting more stable roms they could delve further into this?
Ah one can dream.
Hold power button... Data off. hehe
Otherwise, I think Cognition ROM has it.
Yes Cognition have it
But i would add to my stock rom
Juste need answer at what files modified for add data toggle ?
Thanks!

Posted on your other thread in Q&A... It's in SystemUI.apk, can't say where though.
I try to modify SystemUI.apk in smali files but have FC's
Are you sure is just SystemUI.apk ?
I do not understand when I put directly SystemUI.apk of Cognition ROM it works well.
However when I change my ROM from my stock SystemUI.apk XXKG3 j'obtient one of FC's SystemUI.apk.
Please help me.
Here is my SystemUI.apk : http://www.multiupload.com/15QBK0IX9U
What is wrong with my SystemUI changed.
Thank you!
The reason is that your stock ROM is odexed and the other is deodexed.
This thread should be in the Q&A section.
Absolutely not! I deodex my rom...
Please look at my SystemUI.apk to tell me if something is wrong.
Thank you

I didn't saw your nor cognition SystemUI.apk. but pushing the .png is not enough.
You should have to edit and modify .xml (baksmali) :
quickpanel_quick_settings.xml in /res/layout/
ids.xml and string.xml in res/values
don't touch to public.xml as it is auto generated when recompilation with APK_Manager
Not tested, but you should compare the files above

I not only added the png. I changed the xml files and smali files.
I edit by hand public.xml.
I'll let ApkManager do I see if I have no FC's.
Great! It's work!
We had to do to just let ApkManager public.xml!
hi, can anyone replace icons from archive to apk in archive ? http://www64.zippyshare.com/v/52683022/file.html because when I'm doing it and changing this app in system/app icons are stretched, I changed icons via WinRar because when I'm trying to de/recompile this app via apk tool and other similar applications I have errors and can't do it properly
regards
Yes... But I need the original .pngs (those are from a decompiled .apk) - you can obtain them easy just unzip that .apk using "7 zip". And the framework-res.apk from the same folder (framework) as SemcGenericUxpRes.apk you are trying to modify (because I need to install it in my "APK Multi-Tool", otherwise I can't recompile the .apk)
so here is my framework and original icons http://www16.zippyshare.com/v/11770168/file.html
XperienceD said:
Quick Tip: If all you want to do is edit or replace normal images, things like your Status Bar icons or Menu icons like those used in the main screen of Settings then decompiling IS NOT necessary, simply open the apk in a zip program then just drag and drop any replacement images in to the correct folder, for images like your actual Status Bar which may have a .9 at the end then decompiling IS required.
Note: It's important to use STORE as the compression method when replacing images in the apk.
Also Note: .9 pngs need to be edited ONLY when in the decompiled folder, if you just take a .9 png and edit it then you won't be able to see the borders that the system needs to determine how that image should be displayed. I have included links at the end of this post to help with .9 editing along with links to other various theming resources that I've come across and bookmarked.

I can help you. But I said to give me the original .png that you want to paste into SemcGenericUxpRes.apk. Those that you uploaded the first time was from a decompiled .apk, and the ones uploaded the second time (with framework-res.apk) are already included in SemcGenericUxpRes.apk. Give me those and I promise I'll give you SemcGenericUxpRes.apk in max. 10 minutes after.

Here it is. Try it. I hope it will work. By the way I resized them a little, because they were not the same size as the ones from the original .apk.
Later...
OK. I'm very happy for you. Have a nice day. I used the same tutorial for recompiling...
Does anyone know how to make the notification pull down semi-transparent? I'm OK with vrtheme, but have no idea what to change with TW. I have seen it done in a few MODS for the phone but none by themselves. I have seen the option with Multi Mod but it isn't ready to go yet.

Its an xml edit, decompile the systemui.apk, go to res/ values/ drawables.xml. Open that xml with notepad++ or a similar text editor, go the the line "notification_background_color" change from ff000000 to 80000000 for semi trans the lower the first number the more transparent it will be. Then recompile the systemui.apk. Then either you can pull the resources.arsc file from the built apk and put in a vrtheme flashable, or just push the whole new systemui.apk to your phone.

You must decompile LGSystemUI.apk, then find&replace icons in /res/drawable-hdpi/ folder, must be same size (picture-no data) and type (usually .png).
Some of icons is in lge-res.apk and framework-res.apk. Procedure is same.
Files must be deodexed.
Recompile and enjoy.
Thank you!!

OK,
First, read this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2251719

Didn't you ask: Please can you guide me how to decompile and recompile LGSystemUI.apk.
So, lets start with that... it is (infinitely) simpler than handling with android.policy.jar.
For beginning, please read and install from here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2251719
All of this you need if you want to use VTS.
That is good base for start and understand this process (and works with kitkat).
And for virtuos ten studio, first you MUST read tutorials at this page: http://virtuous-ten-studio.com/, but if you don't understand base of whole process, VTS is useless.

I think we can decompile and compile apk via any root browser (Extract to decomplie and zip to compile).
Do you know a link where I can get notification bar icons from G3.

I dont know where you take only icons, you must take it by yourself from LGSystemUI, or framework-res from original G3 rom.
Try to extract from here: https://app.box.com/s/m0tvrwabte4x6lyc2la1, if they look like in attached pic.
Or try to search or ask someone on G3 forum.
