No. What you will want to do is edit the images in SystemUI_Theme_<Black/Black_Gradation/White/White_Gradation>.apk. Those apks are located in /system/app/. Or you can select a nice premade apk from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g2/themes-apps/softkeys-update-t2804742

That would have been nice to know...
Edit the nav images in /res/drawable-xhdpi/. They start with ic_sysbar_xxxx.png. EX: ic_sysbar_back.png.
If you are on a Lollipop AOSP ROM ask someone else.
Edit: for this phone you probably need to copy those same images to drawable-xxhdpi.

[MOD-42] Replacing system background

Can someone explain to me how to mod the system background on the 42 firmware (the background when you go to settings)?
I tried to replace images in 2 files:
framework-res.apk\res\drawable-hdpi\semc_bg.png
framework-res.apk\res\drawable-hdpi\semc_bg_bright.png

Nothing changes. Also choosing other themes from within the SE Theme Chooser does not work. The images are the same resolution and format. No errors whatsoever. Am I missing something?
You need to mod the DefaultThemes.apk for that.

[Q] How to remuve menus from settings.apk?

i want to ask if any body tried already to remove menus from settings like i want to hide the about phone on stock settings.apk deodexed on jb 4.2 i want to get rid of some menus in my settings i ported dakele os to mtk6589 so i would like to ask if how to? since it is a ported rom some of the menus are not a feature of my stock rom and i want to hide or remove them just to prevent boot loop for example like this in the attachment below i want to get rid of the ad block or sensor_cali .. ..
i badly need help kinda excited to release my ported rom hehe
TIA:good::fingers-crossed:
uppdate: ive done some experement in settings_header.xml i tried to change the name of about phone to phone only and it works so my conclusion is settings_headers changes the appearance of the settings menu
I have not used ICS or JB much but it's possible.
I know exact process of how to do that on GB but not ICS. You'll have to decompile Settings.apk and look for the xml which controls the layout of app.

Which tool are you using to compile apps? And System apps don't need to be signed. Maybe that's the problem.
If you want, you can check out Ultimate Guide in Android Development Section which shows how to correctly compile system apps. Its sticky(noun, not an adjective ) there

Top Notification Bar background color..

I previously had a Galaxy Tab that Ive used for 3 years with Android 2.3 that I customized almost everything, mainly on the framework-res.apk and system.apk.
On the Mega 6.3 running stock Android 4.2.2 I am trying to change the background color of the top Notification bar from the greyish tone it has now to just pure black but I cannot find the resource.. should be a PNG somewhere.. I thought to be on framework-res.apk but I dont seem to identify it.
Does anyone know which file it is or how to change the background color of the top Notification bar?
Thanks a lot in advance

It looks beautiful. Perfect!! Question, now I have a sticky ANDROID IS UPDATING.. Starting Apps pop-up every time I reboot the system just before the reboot is complete and the home screen comes up. Do you know why? Any way to get rid of it? No harm done, is just annoying and delays slightly the boot-up time..
Can you tell me what you modified on the APK so maybe I can try it do it myself later on a future OS upgrade?
Thanks again

You must decompile LGSystemUI.apk, then find&replace icons in /res/drawable-hdpi/ folder, must be same size (picture-no data) and type (usually .png).
Some of icons is in lge-res.apk and framework-res.apk. Procedure is same.
Files must be deodexed.
Recompile and enjoy.

So, lets start with that... it is (infinitely) simpler than handling with android.policy.jar.
For beginning, please read and install from here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2251719
All of this you need if you want to use VTS.
That is good base for start and understand this process (and works with kitkat).
And for virtuos ten studio, first you MUST read tutorials at this page: http://virtuous-ten-studio.com/, but if you don't understand base of whole process, VTS is useless.

I dont know where you take only icons, you must take it by yourself from LGSystemUI, or framework-res from original G3 rom.
Try to extract from here: https://app.box.com/s/m0tvrwabte4x6lyc2la1, if they look like in attached pic.
Or try to search or ask someone on G3 forum.
