[Q] Need help changing png's in Holo Launcher! - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Yeah, I know, I'm a noob, I have attempted to modify the icons in Holo Launcher but have been unsuccessful. Can someone please help me?

For me it works, I use downloaded icon packs on the SDcard and it works good, are you sure the icons are the right size?

Are you signing the apk?

The problem is that apktool does not want to decompile the apk. I wanted to find another method to decompile so that I can replace png's in the apk file of Holo Launcher.

i wanna create a theme to make my arc looks like xperia x8 , u know i love the corner buttons of x8
thanks again
theme is base on
- system/framework/framework-res.apk
- system/framework/SemcGenericUxpRes.apk
- system/app/SystemUI.apk
- system/app/Home.apk
basic , You can change all *.png to your style , open & extract apk using winRAR and replace old file using winRAR again.
- save change edited apk
- copy new edited apk to internal memory (/xxx /yyy /root) , change file permission (rw-r--r--) , move file to overwrite old apk target
-always change files permission! before paste & overwrite!! (if not , bootloop!!)
- about Home.apk is Xperia main launcher , before you overwrite apk you must change default launcher to 3rd party launcher (if not , may be bootloop!!)

Delete please, other guy was faster

If you are referring to the lock screen clock then these are PNG files located in framework-res.apk in the folder res > drawable-hdpi they start with zzz_unlock_clock_0 through to zzz_unlock_clock_9.
You can create your own style of png using something like photoshop and replace these png's with your own. You need to decompile the framework-res.apk replace these png.s with exactly the same name then recompile the framework-res.apk and flash it onto your phone.

I thought adding a .ttf file would be enough but that seems a bit more complicated. I think I'm gonna keep the stock clock fonts. Thanks man!

[Q] How to replace framework-res files using a theme chooser theme

Hey guys,
Ive gotten a theme chooser theme for my SGH-T989. However, it doesnt replace much, i want it to replace my glowdot for the lockscreen, and the lockscreen image, and the unlock icon. I know if i decompile framework-res.apk i can change it, however i want to be able to change it by installing the theme chooser theme.
I already extracted the theme's apk from data/app but i dont recall exactly how to replace framework-res images from within a theme chooser apk. Any and all help is appreciated thanks XDA Community!
Anybody?

If u just want to change icons of any app, then just extract the app with zarchive or root explorar or any other archiving tool... Then go to the extracted app folder. Then go to res/drawable. in this folder you will find icon.png . just replace it with ur desired icon... then zip the folder and rename the zip as apk... You are done...
If u are in pc just open the apk with winrar then replace the icon with winrar.. That's it...
