but when i have deleted resources then how will i get it ??
U ll get becz... apk manager has option to use stock files provided in apk to minimize error... wen we delete any file in keep folder only tat file is compiled from the decompiled folder ( file we edited.....) rest of files are not compiled from decompiled folder..... they just repacked from keep folder which contains stock files... to minimize errors..... ( sorry for my worst English)... i hope u get it....

In this post i wanna tell u guys how to change ur fonts.. I get these font from app called custom android font switcher (free from market),but because if u wanna change ur font using this app,u must have a connection so i gonna tell u the easiest way,without connection..
REQUIREMENT:
1.ROOT
2.TERMINAL EMULATOR
CHANGING UR SYSTEM FONT MAY HARM UR DEVICE SO DO WITH UR OWN RISK.
here it goes:
1.download fonts.zip (attach) and extract it..move it content to ur root of ur
sdcard.
2.the zip content is fonts1 folder,fonts folder and fonts.sh..in fonts1 folder
contain hundreds of ttf/font file..copy any font u want(only one) and paste it
in fonts folder..but because it dont have a preview so u dont know how ur
font u choose look like..
3.open terminal emulator and type:
su
cd sdcard
sh fonts.sh
done,ur phone will reboot so dont panic.. ur older font backed up as
droidsans.ttf.bak on ur root of sdcard.
big thanx to BENTOTBOX for the CUSTOM ANDROID FONT SWITCHER.apk and
thanx to SUHEL for the script..

I just finished cooking a ROM, but when I touch the messaging app shortcut it says the App isnt installed. Meanwhile if I go and open it up from applications menu it opens up without a problem.
I would like the rom to install without this problem. I think it could be that the shortcut is pointing somewhere else and not to the actual application location.
Any advice on this?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Friends,
This is a little Tutorial about changing app icons permanently. There was a lot of applications available in Playstore like “ icon changer free” etc etc to change the app icons. But the problem is that u cant use that changed apps in ur app drawer. U can only use that in ur home screen as a shortcut.
So I just decided to put a little tutorial to do that easily. I know everybody will know this already. But it will help for someone I am sure….
Credit goes to my friend dewanshu93 for teaching me this by personally
Credit Why So Serious? For the Icons
(And Sorry For My Bad English)
Tools Needed:-
(a) One PC
(b) 7 zip
(c) Some good icons
STEPS:-
1) Get some cool icons from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2207136 and save it ur PC. Give him big thanks for the work.
Edit:- If u need some cool Galaxy S4 icons means go here: - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2216289 Please give thanks for his work..
2) Put the apps u want to change the icons to a Folder in ur PC. For example SemcAlbum, Phonebook, Browser etc
3) Here I am taking the Phonebook app for Example..
4) Right Click the Phonebook apk -> Open With -> 7zip File Manager. Then U will get a box contained some files like the attached Image 1
5) Then double click on the res folder and u get another box like attached Image 2
6) Find the folder named “ drawable-xhdpi “ and open it. U will get This Image 3
7) And most important thing is u need to find the original icon and its name of the phonebook.apk or whatever apk u take …
8) For that an easy way is create a new folder in ur PC’s Desktop and select all the images from the box ( Image 3 ) then drag it to the that new folder in the desktop.
9)Then open that folder then search for original the apk icon. Look in to Image 4
10) In my case the name of the Phonebook.apk’s icon is “ic_launcher_contacts “. So just note down the icon name and then open the folder that contains the icons that u downloaded. Image 5
11) And choose which icon u need and select it. Then rename it to the exact name of the original apk icon. ( For example ic_launcher_contacts )
12) After that just drag that renamed icon to res/drawable-xhdpi. It will ask for over right. Press Ok or Yes. Do the same process for res/drawable-hdpi and drawable-mdpi. Means drag the icon to these folders too. That’s it. Copy the apk to ur phone and move it to the System/app with correct permission…
Check the lastly Attached Two images for ur refference .
U can do it with almost all the apks. But I cant guarantee that it will work with all apks. Some System apks did not worked for me…
And also u can take icos from other apks too..
And this is my first work in XDA. Any mistake is there means I am sorry…
Thanks....

u mean, download the apk file first, mod it and thean install?
Re: Tutorial :- Changing App Icons
Actually u will not get automatic backup when u downloading any apps from playstore. For that u need any backup apps. Ultimate backup will done the job. Install ultimate backup from playstore first. Open it go to settings and check the box allow automatic backup some thing like that. Then download the apps u need from playstore. It will automatically backuped in ur internel storage. So u can take the apks from there and then change the icons and then install it again...

You should free up your system memory not your internal/sdcard memory.
