how to change the lockscreen clock fonts - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm on stock 4.0.3. I want to change the lockscreen clock fonts. I tried Clockopia.tff changing in font but didn't work. I read it somewhere I can be done on framework.res.apk. How to do it? I don't know. Help will be appreciated
regards!

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!

You need to change the emoticons in \system\app\Mms.apk\res\drawable-hdpi
Also, it's not necessary to decompile & recompile to do this.
Either just drop the new pngs into Mms.apk using 7-Zip or make a flashable vrtheme - there's some here you can modify.

Yes, It's that easy. For example, for my SK17 and MK16 i replaced the battery icons for the ones in the xperia gx (or maybe any nxt), because the battery icon has a white border and it's more visible
I used 7zip to open systemui.apk, the i extracted the folder named res, inside res are many folders, some say HDPI or MDPI, in one of these are the battery icons...replace or edite the ones you want and open systemui again and drag and drop the new res folder, say yes to whatever messange and you are done :good:

I have a problem:
I pull files. Install the frameworks (framework-res.apk and SemcGenericUxpRes.apk), then decompile SystemUI.apk and framework-res.apk.
Add the icons (from the Tackle My Android presents). Recompile the files and Prepare sys app for pushing and then push the files.
Now status bar is missing (if i push back the original systemui and framework-res it's pack).
BTW I get "W: Cannot find sources" for framework-res
Any help would be appreciated.
EDIT:
Manually decompiling and recompiling did the job. It works now .... But charging animation is not that smooth as the one I extracted it from? (note I updated the corresponding xml file too).

I had the same problem...

Making a zip file works better than pushing the files !

[Q]How to change xperia Z lockscreen wallpaper manually?

Since i have serenityv3 i can't flash nxt settings so I cant change the lockscreeen wallpaper, I remember reading some where in this forum how to change it manually but can't find it atm. Can someone help me out ?
Using apktool try decompiling the lockscreen apk. I think that it is uxpnxtlockscreen.apk. Not sure about that. After decompiling, go to res folder and drawable. Then search for the lockscreen wallpaper file and replace it. Then recompile it with apktool. I highly recommend Stalin Sallu's guide for decompiling the apk. Good luck.

Yes, you will have to rename the picture that you want to insert to the same as that of what is already there. Only then will you be able to repack the apk. If you change the name of the inserted picture to anything else, then the apk will not be able to find that particular picture for the lockscreen and it will most probably not work. Change the picture, but keep the name same as the name of the original picture and you should be good to go.

[REQ] Help with edit SemcGenericUxpRes

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

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...
