As the topic title, I would like to change my system icon without flash. Is there any app to do this?
Sr for my bad English. I am android newbie and I cannot speak Eng well.
What system icon?
Sent from my Transformer TF101 using Tapatalk 2
Go to Settings>Privacy>Reset settings
I mean the sms, phone, contact,... icons
Use a different launcher that supports themes. You will still see the old icons in many places, but it's the best you can get without root.

Actually I dont wanna use another launcher, the stock one is really awesome
You need to root your phone first. You will need to extract every single app which you wanna change the icons to pc. Then open it up with apktool, search for the icon and change it, then recompile it. After that, use root explorer to copy the modified apk into system/app and change permission to rw-r--r--. Then reboot phone. But remember, always do a backup with Titanium Backup before changing system app.

You can't change drawer icons on stock launcher without root and it'll never be possible. Sorry.

Decompile, change the icons and whatever else you want and recompile.
Another way: download "Home screen customizer" from Play Store - it allows you to change the icons for homescreen and app drawer. You also need a collection of your icons in Gallery cheers~

All apks you need are in /system/app
you have to be rooted and use root explorer to copy the apps that you want to change the icon to your desktop, after then, install 7zip to your pc, its much easier than apktool because you can replace icon without de- compiling the apk and re-compiling it back, right click on the app and open archieve navigate thru, Res- drawable-hdpi if im not mistaken, then replace the icon of your choice. after that close the 7zip and copy the moded app back to /system/app change the permission first to rw-r-r to avoid any issue. reboot afterwards. hope it helps

Hello!
I made a little modification to the systemui.apk file so the statusbar become transparent, I didn't make it 100% transparent just to keep the icons readable whatever is the wallpaper!

Using ZIP file with Metamorph from the market:
-Delete the original systemui.apk first
-Flash the GlassArc.zip file with metamorph
I don't know if the metamorph file is working well (ZIP file)
Using Rootexplorer or Astro Files:
-Put the systemui.apk file in a folder in your SD card.
-Open RootExplorer backup then delete the original systemui.apk in system/framework and copy the new file from the SD into System/framework folder.
-Reboot
For people who can't get the transparent statusbar try ADW Launcher and disable wallpaper hack
Looking so good Thanks... I want to try it but i am scared to mess up
Thanks.
Looks quite harmonic with default SE launcher.
Installed via Root explorer:
1. copy new systemUI.apk to /system
2. set permissions
3. move it to system/app (not to system/framework - it's a mistake)
Also, I've noticed that when you open (i.e. slide down) notifications, the bar itself still remains transparent while background is gray. Is it possible to fix it?
Thanks tretiakov, and what are permissions? :$

If it doesn't work then just open ADB folder(you have to put the apk file in that folder) and open a cmd window, then type:
-adb devices

-adb push systemui.apk system/framework

LPP has no compatibility with transparent statusbar, it's not only with my mods but all others too.
It looks the stock launcher and ADW can.

Hy! The app have the same issues like the "Home Launcher with Dock". I can't add large widgets (4*4)
I edited a little the apk and:
-in res/xml folder theres a default_settings_desktop.xml file. If i edit example the "favourites" widget parameters to Height/weight 4 then the widget appears good!
That's mean the app have issues with the "adding widgets" But wheres the xml they need to be edited?

Maybe you have to press Power-on an Volume-up buttons for a while to reboot after copying this file, because your system hang up.

may be u did it wrong, using root explorer, first u must put the systemui.apk in the system folder and set the permission to rw-r-r (like in the screenshot sample) then u move the apk to the system/app folder. after that reboot ur phone

You're right, so far - that's the way to do this and so I made it, too.
I have two sola phones (both ICS, rooted), tried different statusbars on them and every time the system stopped after a short time, i copied the systemUI.apk file to the app folder. Think, its because of you are copying a a new file over a running (system-) file. I used once the solid explorer (still beta, but fine) and then the ES file explorer.
But after a reset all things were ok and the status bars worked ok. Thx to the developers...
No matter, I just wanted to tell, if this happens (system stop) - just make a reset and all will be fine. :good:
Simple and does the work, thanks!
