Right click systemUI.apk and open with 7-zip,click res folder,then drawable-hdpi or whatever your resolution is and extract that folder to your desktop,there you can edit the images inside,when finished,delete the folder inside the 7-zip window and drag and drop the edited folder on your desktop into the opened 7-zip window and click yes to paste,now to edit your build.prop/name,right click the build.prop and edit with notepad++,scroll down to ro.build.description=xxxxxx.xxx or ro.product.version=xxxx.xxxxx ,x's is where the name goes.Add the build.prop tweaks to the bottom of the build.prop.I hope this helped you.

I've been looking for ways on how to customize our carrier label but found none. Fortunately, I've found this great thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1570956 which gave me the idea so I started modifying my device and I was able to customize it, so I decided to share it with you guys since this site has been a great help for a beginner like me. So here's how:
Requirements
1. Apktool
2. Notepad++ or any xml editor
**Since modifying this is so complicated, I attached the edited xml which will replace your current xmls.**
Download the attached zip and extract it.
Open strings.xml and find this line (its in the endline )
<string name="iamLinker">InsertYourTextHere</string>
change the text in red font to your desired text and save
Extract your SystemUI
move the following xmls to /res/layout -- look for layout-ldpi as well
status_bar_expanded.xml
tw_status_bar_expanded.xml
tw_status_bar_expanded_dual.xml
move the following xmls to /res/values
strings.xml
styles.xml
recompile and push the modified SystemUI.apk
then reboot.
And that's it! Don't forget to hit thanks if this helps!

Hi
Very please help
The rom 4.1.2 I could using winrar for simple to change png to another png
Now I'm on 4.4.2 (DittoNote 5.2).
I want to change the png (tw_quick_panel_quick_setting_button_bg_normal.9 ???)
I think it is png a background toogles
I change my png i using winrar but nothing changes.
It is still the old png and no new png.
For what is this happening?
png's ending with 9 are not ordinary png's, they are 9-patch png's and in order to edit them you must DECOMPILE the APK, edit and then RECOMPILE. Anyway, simple adding with winRAR is nota good idea if you don't do ZIPALIGN because it slows down the reading of images....
Ah, and why post a question in app section, isn't Q&A more logical choice?
So I should do this in the Q & A - my mistake.
Ok thanks for the information.
delanik - this is just an example:
I'm trying to change the png in Note 5.2 Ditto 4.4.2
Is the file is tw_quick_panel_quick_setting_button_bg_normal.9 is background switches?
I exchange tw_quick_panel_quick_setting_button_bg_normal.9 another png
with another theme rom Note 2 but nothing has changed.
As I said - pngs with 9 at the end CAN'T be edited without recompiling. Use APKTOOL to decompile APK, then edit, then RECOMPILE. Then from recmpiled APK, copy PNGs (or whole res\drawable folder) to original APK.
If it doesn't change (and it should even when you don't do recompile - it should show BAD image) then you are not editing correct image.
Thank you very much dalanik

Decompile framework-res.apk and open res/values/bools.xml
Change the value of
Code:
<bool name="config_showNavigationBar">false</bool>
to true.
Recompile framework-res.apk
Decompile SystemUI_ZTE.apk. Copy all the images (attached) to the res/drawable-xxxhdpi-v4 folder. Say yes to overwrite.
Recompile SystemUI_ZTE.
Is there anyway someone can make this flash able.

Not possible because the framework-res and SystemUI apks are different for each ROM and build.
