Have you tried looking in secmms.apk/res/drawable hdpi. And have you tried this changer? It's worked for me when I was first starting out, before I learned how to decompile/compile apks. Good luck

The only thing I know is yo modify your SystemUI.apk with apk manager . I don't know the exact steps .

Yup, you'll have to find and replace the image files. Contact Seilent or search for the tutorial in section "Android Themes"
OK thnx you guys. Gonna do some more searching.
You have to do this manually. Open your systemui.apk with winrar. Open drawable-mdpi and you will find your current pulldown menu buttons. Just replace these files with what you like and also make sure that file names match.
Hey SGAce, i perfectly didnt understand your question. Do you just want to change the icons pngs or do you want to change their functions itself? Changing icons png has been expained before by other users but if you want to change functions of these, its a tedious job with editing xmls and resources and etc. It is a lot better to wait for the nightlies of CM7 lol
THNX y'all,
i did it, i managed to change the button png's. Afterall it was a STUPID and unnesessary question, coz i did this with a few other apk's before
Sorry, this thread can be closed.
Cheers.
just use 7-zip

launcher pro not supporting transparent notification bar?

hi there!
sorry if this was discussed before, don't find something...
I made a transparent notification bar with UOT.
so, when I turn my phone on lockscreen, its transparent, unlocked its not transparent. when I open a app, its transparent too.
so I think, launcher pro have on the homescreen a "own" notification bar. on lockscreen and on apps it takes the sense bar.
I tried go launcher, same there.
any ideas?
running high rom 3D, 2.3.4, HTC evo 3D.
thanks for any help!!

Its not the launcher that supports transparency. Its your rom. U gotta decompile, recompile your systemui after you've edited the smali inside.
U can find a lot of threads regarding this in the themes section.

Use MultiPicture Live Wallpaper from Market: https://market.android.com/details?id=org.tamanegi.wallpaper.multipicture&feature=search_result
It's enabling transparent sb on every launcher

No, he means he has a transparent themed rom already but Launcher Pro makes the status bar solid.(Transparency works fine in other launchers)
I have the same problem, it's a known issue in LP. I was looking for some info on it when I came across this thread.
So far, the live wallpaper fix mentioned above is all I can find as far as a workaround, but there's got to be some kind of fix other than that,right?

if you want to get original xperia icons
you may use the xperia arc theme from market...
and about editing the theme
first get root explorer
now with the help of root explorer open the theme apk (dont click on install)
now you will see some folders
different icons and backgrounds may be found in the "res" folder..
do not forget to press thanks if i helped
yes and the system and A-theme may be found in system/apps
you may edit them from there....

Font changer Xperia Neo

Hi guys. I've been looking into changing the font on my neo but the font changer app states that it can brick some phones.
Does anyone have this app and if so, does it work? Cheers

no I haven't got this app,but I have used rom toolbox to change fonts on my roms...no bricking so far done by it...plus it has tons of other options as long as you know what they do !

Hi,
I prefer font installer, its the standalone app included in the ROM toolbox:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jrummy.font.installer&feature=related_apps
I think its more user friendly that font changer, and never had problems using it

Ive used that, but always remember to backup your default font first because this app doesn't backup them on its own which it shud
I have used this app and it works just fine.

I'm using gingerchaos ROM, installed a font using ROM toolbox, but sometimes my notifications text simply disappear, my statusbar bugs, even the reboot menu gets buggy.
Anyone knows how to solve it?

works on stock rom, doesn't affect anything when i'm using it on MIUI
Because MIUI already has it's own front manager, included in theme customization.
Maybe a .mtz customized theme with the wished font inside would do it.

hi! sorry I wrote wrongly.. I forgot a word.. I know where apps are.. I meant where default app ICONS are.. sorry for confusion..
I'm asking this because I would like to replace the exDialer icon (green one) with the default JB telephone one (blue receiver).. but I don't know where I can locate the JB telephone app icon..
I think you may have had the right image, but I believe you may have to decompile then recompile the app properly to do change that. Google should produce results for a guide to do this as I have seen one recently

nova launcher allows me to change apps icons very easily, I have already changed all the apps icons I have in the dock.. so I just need to know where I can find the telephone app icon to be able to use it..

Which one do you want? If I have it I will drop box it for you
To replace images you don't have to decompile just drop them in /res/*whichever folder it goes in* with a store compression value.
Only when you need to edit XML's do you need to decompile and recompile.

mate.. you are epic!!
that's wonderful.. at last.. thanks so much! :good::good::highfive::victory:
You dont need to decompile to change .pngs...just open the .apk with winrar and go to res/drawable-xhdpi and replace what you want to
the other drawable folders arent used in the S3 - they are overwritten by the xhdpi folder
Edit, couldnt type it fast enough...!!
And that should be dropped in appname.apk/res/mipmap-xhdpi or hdpi or mdpi whichever one is for your dpi.
