1- For ease of use I have created the transparent image so download it from the attachment and unzip it (ldpi only)
To find out how I did it and to create one for other screen sizes click the spoiler below
To create the transparent lockscreen image
1- Decompile framework-res.apk
2- Open res/drawable-ldpi (or mdpi/hdpi for other devices)
3- Look at zzzzzzzz_default_lockscreenw.jpgand take note of its image dimensions (you can do this by opening it in paint as it says image dimensions at bottom of screen)
4- Open an image editor like photoshop and create a blank transparent image the same dimensions as what you just noted
5- Save image as zzzzzzzz_default_lockscreenw.png (note must be png to keep transparency)
2- Decompile framework-res.apk with Apktool
3- Open res/drawable-ldpi
4- Delete zzzzzzzz_default_lockscreenw.jpg
5- Copy zzzzzzzz_default_lockscreenw.png from attachment or what you have created to res/drawable-ldpi (or mdpi/hdpi on other devices)
6- Open res/layout/zzz_keyguard_screen_lockscreenwallpaper.xml in notepad++
7- Change android:background to ="#00000000"
8- Recompile the folder
9- Delete the compiled apk
9- Unzip the original unmoddifed framework-res.apk
10- Copy META-INF and AndroidManifest.xml and paste them to YourDecompiledFolder/build/apk
11- Recompile the folder again
12- Put in a Flashable Zip and Flash in CWM with system mounted

did you set android:background="#00000000" in zzz_keyguard_screen_lockscreenwallpaper.xml
so the line should look like this
Code:
<RelativeLayout android:id="@id/lockscreenwallpaper_root" android:background="#00000000" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent"

I assume you used the png I gave in the attatchment and deleted the jpg that was there already
I wrote this guide over 6months ago when I was on stock rom - I use cm7 now so cant really go back over it
and I think it only works on the default stock lockscreen so if you have changed the lockscreen style that might be why
you can upload your unmodified framwork-res.apk and i'll do it for you and you can see if it makes any difference
waw, nice guide

So bad
Ics
im only looking for the ics status bar, not a rom.xD
Download the ICS Fusion Rom , Open with WinRAR extract SystemUI.apk from System/App . Open the SystemUI.apk with WinRAR and extract LDPI folder. Then extract the themed icons and pics you want. Take the SystemUI from the rom you are on and extract the LDPI folder. Replace the ICS themed status bar stuff from the ICS LDPI to your Roms. Put the Modified LDPI into the SystemUI.apk and then put that SystemUI.apk on your phone. Download SignAPKTic from the Google Play Store or APKTops and Re-Sign the SystemUI.apk you just edited by choosing the modified SystemUI.apk then choose test sign then click sign and choose output file SystemUI.apk and sign it. It takes around 3 minutes tops!
Then set the Root Permissions etc. and replace the Original with the modified one! Then Re-Boot and Clear Dalvik,Battery Stats,Cache. Hope this worked for you!!

yup, just make sure that when you are replacing the icons in your original systemUI.apk, you should retain the original names of the files
it's a simple procedure (use winrar or other extracting programs you like)
things you might do:
(1) replacing icons
(2) re-sizing the icons (if needed)
(3) checking the names of files
(4) pushing and setting the correct permissions
goodluck

Hmm..How can we make the systemUI folder into an apk after replacing the icons? Just add to zip/rar? Do we have to compress and which format zip/rar? Thanks

no need to make it hard bro
just make a copy of the apk file that you want to edit
and using winrar, just overwrite the files with the edited version that you made (should have the same name)
then push + restart

Install instructions:
put SemcClock.apk, Settings.apk, SystemUI.apk and framework-res.apk to /system folder and change permission to 644 (rw-r--r--) on all of them. Then move SemcClock.apk, Settings.apk and SystemUI.apk to /system/app folder and framework-res.apk to /system/framework folder. Once you have finished reboot the phone and enjoy in theme
Do you hate that we cant change alarm ringtone? Yes, don't worry! I change the default alarm ringtone directly in SemcClock.apk file together with stock blurred wallpapers
Note: it works for locked and unlocked bootloader devices. You only need to have ROOT access!
A lot of icons are borrowed from other ROM-s so full credit for them goes to their makers!
Nice work! Thanks!

Great job! Thank you very much! :good:
But there is a small note: the player control buttons on the lock screen.
Take these files, and paste into your framework-res.apk as is. It will be like here.
White Magic?!
Excuse me, but why do you speak about white magic, your theme almost as much dark as stock. To fully use WM it must be as much light as possible.
Boot Loop after used Root Explorer move SemcClock.apk, Settings.apk and SystemUI.apk to /system/app folder and framework-res.apk to /system/framework folder

Thanks for the awesome theme. :good:
Were can find your Weather Widget? It's verry nice
Thanks again !
Nice work. I'll try tommorrow on my Xperia P.
2 questions
1. Is in toggle bar a button for 2G/3G network mode? Is very usefull for me.
2. Can you do this patch to be flashable? From CWM (recovery mode). It's better to do like that because in case that something is not work is easy to go back if you post a stock patch too. I done in past on other xperia trought root explorer and after I finished to move the files in the specified folder, in case of something is wrong I'm stuck in FC loops and can't restore the old files to fix the problem.
Pls tell me which theme s that is shown in the screenshots??

[GUIDE]✰ ◆ ◇ ✰ Custom Carrier Logo's for Stock/Custom ROMs ✰ ◇ ◆ ✰
Hey guys.
I've had a few people asking me how to create a custom carrier logo, so I decided to post up a short guide on how to do it.
I'll try to keep it as simple as possible, hopefully you'll be able to understand it
We need
- apktool
- Galaxy Note 2
*make sure you meet all requirements for apktool
Guide:
- Copy framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk from your current ROM into your apktool directory
* SystemUI.apk --> /system/app
* framework-res.apk --> /system/framework
- CD your apktool folder
- Install resources from framework-res.apk by issuing this command
Code:
apktool if framework-res.apk
- Decompile your SystemUI.apk by doing following command
Code:
apktool d SystemUI.apk
- Navigate to your decompiled SystemUI folder and go to /res/values/bools.xml
- Find the following bool
Code:
<bool name="config_showOperatorLogo">false</bool>
- Change it to the following:
Code:
<bool name="config_showOperatorLogo">true</bool>
- Save and close the XML
- Next, navigate to /res/drawable-xdpi/ and search for this image
Code:
tw_stat_notify_operator_logo
- This is what you want to replace with your custom image. Try not have the image too big, and make sure it is a png.
I usually make my logos arround 90x40 but they can be smaller or slightly larger depending on what you are using.
- After you replaced that image with your custom carrier logo go back to your command prompt window and recompile your apk.
Code:
apktool b SystemUI
- Your new apk will be in the decompiled SystemUI folder in the "dist" folder
- Next, ckick and drag the original AndroidManifest.xml and the META-INF folder for the original SystemUI.apk to the new SystemUI.apk
- drag your new SystemUI.apk to /system/app and make sure you have set the right permissions RW--R--R
- then Reboot
Screenshot
upper left corner (my favorite soccer club from Belgrad )
How To Submit Request
- Post your SystemUI.apk and framework-res.apk from your current ROM
- Post the carrier logo you want
- Post what ROM you are using
Resources
- Some carrier logos
Enjoy !
Always remember to make a nandroid backup BEFORE making any changes to your system.

for example

why not... just follow the steps one by one...
or give me your
- SystemUI.apk

help me plz bro...http://db.tt/SmCrL7yW
Success!!!
LuCiFeRkO,
It took me a two days to get this running, and I know this is for the 7100/7105, but I felt a little daring and tried on my Sprint L900. Now I need to make an adjustment, but I am really proud with the results for a first time. I used your template of 90 x 40. I just need to get the right Font and Colour. I may have to stretch it out a little past 90.
Also, I noticed that when the phone is locked the Carrier shows up on the lock screen beside my logo, but when I unlock it, it goes away. Any ideas where I should look to remove that or is that normal?

LuCiFeRkO,
It took me a two days to get this running, and I know this is for the 7100/7105, but I felt a little daring and tried on my Sprint L900. Now I need to make an adjustment, but I am really proud with the results for a first time. I used your template of 90 x 40. I just need to get the right Font and Colour. I may have to stretch it out a little past 90.
Also, I noticed that when the phone is locked the Carrier shows up on the lock screen beside my logo, but when I unlock it, it goes away. Any ideas where I should look to remove that or is that normal?

How to build apps icon pack:
Things you require:
-Base VRTheme-Here!(Don't worry there are no trojans)
-Some icons-Here are my AOSP icons.
-Required apps from the ROM which you want to modify.
-Notepad++ for changing updater-script.
-Any resizing tool.
-A brain to avoid mistakes and bother me with stupid questions.
-Kindness to press the THANKS button below.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Steps:
1. Download all the things required.
2. Open your ROM and copy all the apps and move them to a seperate folder. Here we will take only 3 apps-Browser, Messaging and Calculator.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
3. Now extract these apps using 7zip or winrar.
4. Now open the app folder, go to res and find the location where the icon of the app is present. These are generally present in mipmap-mdpi or drawable-mdpi. For e.g. in Browser app it's present in mipmap-mdpi named as ic_launcher_browser.png:
5. Now extract the VRTheme base folder and go to vrtheme->system->app and make a new folder their with named as appname.apk(Here appname refers to the name of the app). For e.g. Browser.apk in my case.
6. Now make res folder in it. And under res folder make another folder which contains app icon. For e.g res->mipmap-mdpi in my case:
7. Now place your modified icon in it and rename it to the original icon name. For e.g. ic_launcher_browser.png in my case. And resize it to 48X48. If you want to resize it by percent then decrese hdpi icon size by 44% and xhdpi by 66.7%.
8. Do the same for other apps. In my case calculator and messaging.
9. Now give this icon pack your name. Go to META-INF->com->google->android and open updater-script with notepad++ and in second line replace alokbina with your name. You can practically change almost everything under ui_print in updater-script but remember that it should be in the format ui_print("ABCD"); . Here replace ABCD with whatever you like.
10. Now you will be having 4 folders- data, META-INF, system, vrtheme and an image named as preview. Zip all these and rename it whatever you like and flash it with CWM and you're done! Enjoy your own icon pack Feel free to THANK me :laugh:
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Important Tip:-Note the size of the original icon and modify the other icon accordingly or else you may not get any icon or smaller icon. For e.g. sometimes the icon present in the app is of size 96X96 though it is mdpi app. But still change the other icon size also to 96X96 to get best result.

Click to collapse
Before we begin ask yourselves a question..!!
1.Do we really need OSB for mdpi devices??
Ans: i feel yes, "PREVENTION IS BETTER THAN CURE" its better we use our touch rather than using the soft keys for such along time and eventually get them busted! :silly:
2. Do we really need to follow this guide to make my own OSB??
Ans: Well it depends on your requirements......
3. will it support ICS, JB and even CM???
Ans: Hell yeah..!! it does work!!! sorry GB users

Tools Required:
1.framework-res.apk
2.SystemUI.apk
3.Winrar or 7zip
4.Notepad++
5.Apktool or Apkmanager or Apkmultitool
6.JAVA & JDK already installed in your PC
last but not the least required thing is a fully functioning human brain..!!
STEP1:
Framework Part:
1) Take the framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk from rom and paste it in "place-apk-here-for-modding" folder in Apktool
2) Decompile the framework-res.apk using
Code:
apktool d framework-res.apk
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
3)Once decompiled you'll obtain a folder "framework-res"
4) Open it ..goto 'res\values' folder...find bools and right click to edit with notepad++ and by using ctrl+f search for
Code:
<bool name="config_showNavigationBar">[COLOR="Red"]false[/COLOR]</bool>
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
5)Rename falseto true...save file.
6) Open 'dimens' file in the same folder res\values and using ctrl+f search for navigation bar height and width and change them to whatever dpi you want and save file
7) Thats it!! compile the framework-res using the code
Code:
apktool b framework-res
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
8)Now you will get the new apk file of framwork-res.apk in the dist folder of framework-res folder if you are using the apktool and for other tools it will be in the respective output folder
9) Now we have to sign the framework-res.apk using any apk signing software or simply use TICKLE MY ANDROID by TICKLE FISH to sign your apk by placing it in the out folder of Tickle my android and sign it by pressing button 15 to sign apk file under theming menu(2)
10)thats it now your rom will have OSB
Note: If you dont want OSB in landscape view also..then type 0.0dip like this... in res\values\dimens
Code:
<dimen name="navigation_bar_height_landscape">0.0dip</dimen>
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
STEP2:
System UI part:
1. using 7zip or winrar OPEN the SystemUI.apk and navigate to res>drawable_mdpi (if drawable_mdpi is not present go to drawable_hdpi) and just drag and drop this folder "drawable_mdpi (or) hdpi"where you are working
2. search for these png files in the folder
Code:
ic_sysbar_back
ic_sysbar_back_ime
ic_sysbar_home
ic_sysbar_menu
ic_sysbar_recent
if they are present thats done if they are not present you'll have to add them into the folder with dimensions of your choice
3. Thats it NOW you have OSB in your ROM
WANT TO ASK ANYTHING???
How do i add them man...??
Well that's very simple go to this page http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1413582 and download the required OSB styles you want to add to your ROM
but hey this brother who is a Recognized contributor @atticus182 should deserve a THANKS for such beautiful icons
Once downloaded you must re-size the pngs as far as i know for mdpi devices in portrait mode the image should be scaled around width:80px and height:48px (80x48) and in landscape mode width:48px and height:80px (40x80) is recommended
after they are re-sized they should be copy pasted to the folder we dragged and dropped from SystemUI.apk
once they are copy pasted again open SystemUI.apk in 7zip or Winrar and open the res folder and now just drag and drop the folder in which we added the png files and save the compression level to store if asked and now decompile SystemUI.apk and check whether the files which we drag and dropped are present in the res folder and even check for the png files the res>drawable mdpi(or)hdpi folder... if they are present then it is well and good if they arenot present then you have done something wrong post your problem i'll help you out or there are lot of devs here in XDA they'll help

STEP3:
CREATING A FLASHABLE ZIP
1) Download Sample.zip but dont extract it..just open the sample provided with winrar...you will see 2 folders META-INF and system.
View attachment Sample.zip
2) In system there will be two folders framework and app...
Drag the new framework-res.apk to framework folder...
and the SystemUI.apk folder to app..
3) META-INF has info about flashing...goto com..google..android and open update-script file with notepad++...you can edit whatever you want in
ui_print (" ") ...it will be displayed while installing...Save file..
Done your flashable zip is also ready to be flashed using CWM recovery
Feel free to ask questions if you have any coz this tutorila/guide is n-o-o-b friendly :victory: :angel:

try using some on screen button app mod bro..... i think there is one in Xperia P forums where it works with no issues for all phones
No
it's work good now via your method
This is a very cool tutorial and thanks for saying thanks for Tickle My Android. :thumbup:
However, I should point out that you can use Tickle My Android for more than just signing the apk. It can be used to take the file from your phone, decompile it, recompile it and put it into a flashable zip.
Saves having to download lots of different programs when you can do what you need with just one...
