That is where the problem is. In systemui most ldpi icons are used but also some from mdpi folder in notification bar and so on....
U will need to see about that
just checkout all folders and see its name
I will have a better idea if u can give me an apk

Hey everyone! I have an ICS theme apk downloaded that I am currently using, however I dont like the status bar icons that show up. Is it possible for me to change those icons to ones that came with GB?
nope u cant..
Yes you can, but thats a really big headache...prefer leaving it to the developers
Open the apk with WinRAR or 7zip and replace the drawables with theones u want... u may need to sign the apk again...
if dont what i am talking about then just dont do anything..

Y U no use Ultimate Online Kitchen?
Thread: [KITCHEN][01/22] UOT Kitchen (Ultimate Online Theme Kitchen) version 4.0
He can't change status bar icons with his own using UOT kitchen, he can change only to those that are already given in the kitchen....
BTW, you should listen to nogoodusername, if you don't succeed, you'll just get a parse error when installing...

Well, you're right but the OP said he wants stock gingerbread icons, and those are included in the kitchen.

I think i know what you're talking about.. You mean taking out the drawables from the apk that i dont want and putting in the ones from GB? Although i dont know where to get those files and how do you sign the apk?
I dont like black background of all folders or settings in galaxy ace.
Or how to make white menus or background in ace-help with download
give me your framework-res.apk and i will set ios background in settings etc
I've been wondering too myself how to make menu background white. Is there a guide somewhere ? Or do i have to change only one value somewhere ( i.e. ...=000000 to ...=FFFFFF ) ?
no guide unfortunantly
but u need to vhange some stuff to @drawable/background
and then i t will work
if u give me the framework res .apk
i can do it fast

dont have any knowledge about xml but apk decompiling, it is yes.
you need to decompile, edit some xml files, then recompile both systemUI.apk and lidroid-res.apk.

Easy way decompile lidroid-res.apk with framework and twframework installed. and then go in the res/layout and open power button widget.xml and find line with text view and change layout_height="fill-parent" to layout_height="0.0dip" then save the xml and recompile the apk. Now open new lidroid-res.apk and old lidroid-res.apk. In winrar. Then drag and drop the Meta-inf folder from old lidroid-res.apk to new lidroid-res.apk and flash it using any theme.zip of ur Rom

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...

If u just want to change icons of any app, then just extract the app with zarchive or root explorar or any other archiving tool... Then go to the extracted app folder. Then go to res/drawable. in this folder you will find icon.png . just replace it with ur desired icon... then zip the folder and rename the zip as apk... You are done...
If u are in pc just open the apk with winrar then replace the icon with winrar.. That's it...
You should move the Thread to Galaxy Y GT-S5360 Q&A, Help &
