Hi. I just wanted to write a guide on modifying apks. You probably have seen my rom in the ported section.
(I'll make the guide look better when I get home)
Well lets get started.
1.
First. An introduction to what an apk is. An apk is (believe it or not) a zip of files.
2.
So how do you go about editing a zip? I suggest using 7z on your computer or root explorer on your phone.
Second: there are a lot of apks you can edit but for this guide I'll be using the systemui.apk that you find in any rom in the system/app folder.
3.
Ok. So assuming you start with the system ui apk your going to need to extract the apk with 7z on your computer. (or root explorer on your phone. Es file should work also)
4.
Now you should have a new folder where you chose to extract your apk. Open that folder. Your going to see a bunch of files. What your probably going to be interested in is the res folder. Go into that folder and find the drawable hdpi folder. Open it.
Your going to see a lot of icons. Here is where you can change things like wifi icons. You can add 4g icons and so much more. Even edit what your contacts look like.
5.
This is an important step. Make sure your using the system ui apk from the rom your currently on or make sure its compatible with yoir rom.
Ok so now we get to the things like icon changes. Download a theme you've been dying for but couldn't get because it was either for another rom or phone. And the only thing you wanted was a few things from the theme.
Now extract that zip. Then extract the systemui.apk again from the zip you want your icons to look like. MAKE SURE YOU RENAME THE THE SYSTEM UI TO SOMETHING DIFFERENT SO YOU DON'T MIX THEM UP.
6.
So now that you got the system ui apk with whatever you want to use all you need to do is go into the drawable hdpi of the one with the icons you want in it. Copy them and bring them to your roms stock system ui and replace them.
7.
Thats about it. Now zip your roms stock system ui back up and change the ending to .apk. Then put it in system/apps and replace it. Reboot. And boom. Your modded apk is ready.
Hit thanks if I helped.
for step three rename the. apk to .zip its easier
This can only be used for replacing regular images in the APK. There are many images that are .9 images which require decompiling.
There are MANY guides across xda that go into detail and show you the proper way to modify APK's..... There is much more then images.
This one is even in this forum: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1388459
Based on process for galaxy nexus http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1413582
See also; http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1724112
Required;
Root
PNGs of desired icons (get them at galaxy nexus post, link above)
Root Browser (or other decent file manager)
Custom ROM (maybe, not tested on stock)
The usual anti-warranty applies; use at your own risk, use common sense, back up your files, back up your System partition
Decompress your systemUI.apk file from /system/app and replace the system icon PNGs in the /res/drawable-sw600dp-mdpi directory with the PNGs downloadable from the above link, giving them the same name as those in the prexisting .apk, then re-zip rename it as "systemUI.apk", and replace the original systemUI.apk in /system/app. Then set permissions to rw-r-r, and reboot. Confirmed working only on custom Roms.
Edit: note when you decompress, you'll get a folder called systemUI. When you go to re-zip, you want to multi-select the contents of that folder and then make a zip of them to normal compression. Then rename the product .zip file as systemUI.apk. its probably a good idea to backup your original systemUI.apk... You should modify the systemUI.apk from your ROM, or be running the same ROM as myself, just to be safe- i have not tested mixing and matching ROMs and systemUI's and it could be potentially dangerous, as I cannot guarantee that they will be compatable.
Attatched- my screenshot (im using a subtle reflection theme) and a modified systemUI.apk (from the screenshot) - only tested on the ROM I'm using - a cm10 euroskank nightly
*don't try to install sysuemUI.apk like an app, it will do nothing.
Known bugs- no downward ^ when keyboard is up (probably an easy fix)- this is because the galaxy nexus files do not include one...
I take no credit for this process, only for writing this post. All credit goes to the author of the original galaxy nexus post
Feel free to post your screenshots and modified systemUI.apk's This is my first how-to, so let me know what you think, and how I can improve it. I'm an official noob, so I'm sure I've left something out. Let me know anything I could mention regarding other custom and stock ROMs as well. Don't forget to hit Thanks
I don't know how to decompile and compile..
If anybody could make this one a flashable zip??.
Thanks a ton..
This is for those of us who preferred the stronger haptic feedback strength of the capacitive buttons that we had from 2.3.5 (and also for those who haven't taken the ICS plunge). The basic steps of this could probably also be used for other changes to the framework-res.apk. These are the steps I used and are by no means the best way to do this (in fact, this probably guarantees it's not the best way  ).
As always, you should be careful when performing any modifications to things like this. I STRONGLY suggest making a nandroid backup and an extra copy of your framework-res.apk in case you want to switch back. Also, you should have cwm on boot enabled so you can always get back to a working condition if you end up in a boot loop. This worked perfectly for me on my first try, but that doesn't mean much . You do all things at your own risk!
You will need:
APK Manager
7zip
Notepad++
Not on ICS!
1. Extract (copy) your framework-res.apk found in \system\framework\
2. Put copy in the "place-apk-here-for-modding" in APK Manager (you may want to re-name the file so you can remember what version/ROM you took it from)
3. Open the APK Manager script and select the apk you want to change
4. I set the compression to 0 and heap size to 512mb (I saw several threads that suggested these settings)
5. De-compile the apk
6. Find the decompiled apk in the "Projects" folder and open it up
7. Navigate to \res\values\arrays.xml and open with Notepad++
8. Find:
And replace with:
9. Save the file
10. Compile the apk. When asked "Is this a system apk?", I said "yes". And then when asked if anything else needs to be copied, I said "no".
11. Using 7zip, open the new apk as an archive found in "place-apk-here-for-modding" folder.
12. Also, open the original apk as an archive with 7zip
13. Drag and drop the "res" folder and "resources.arsc" file from the NEW apk into the ORIGINAL apk
14. Use your favorite method of getting the modified ORIGINAL apk back in your \system\framework\ directory on your phone
-I prefer to hi-jack someone's flashable zip and put my own framework-res.apk--I used AlteredLikeness's "The Stock Monster" http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1645950 since I'm using stock, odexed 2.3.6. Thanks AlteredLikeness!
I understand there are a dwindling few still using 2.3.6 and the days of GB are numbered for the A2, but I hope this still helps someone! If you have any questions, feel free to post, but try to do some research first (that's how we all learn this stuff  ).
Peace Out!

Ok guys and gals this thread started as custom lock screen on/off sounds but since then i have found in my opinion another cool mod from the s4 forum that is compatible on our devices that i think you may enjoy as well. These are not my mods in anyway i just found,tried and confirmed these working on the Note3. Please give credit where it is due if you use these mods/ports.
.........ALWAYS MAKE YOUR BACKUPS BEFORE MODDING ANYTHING!........
First up is the custom on/off lock screen sounds by a guy over on the Sprint S4 forum by the name of dav3wash so don't forget to hit that thanks button when you get over there.
1)Pick and download any of the Lock/unlock sounds you wish from the link below.
2)Extract the Lock.ogg and unlock.ogg from the zip and place on sd card in a new folder named whatever you wish.
3)With any file explorer with root access Navigate to [System / system / Media / audio / ui]
4)Scoll down til you see Lock.ogg and unlock.ogg
5)Delete or move stock sounds to the folder you made in step (2) (Incase you want to go back to stock).
6)Place custom Lock.ogg/unlock.ogg where the stock ones were shown in step (3)
7)Back out of file explorer and reboot your device.
8)After reboot Navigate to [Settings / device / lock screen / unlock effect / and set to ripple/ink] and your good to go!!!!!
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2304198
Hope you enjoy these sounds!!!
If for any reason you would like to go back to stock the link below is the stock lock.ogg/unlock.ogg zip. This zip is non-flashable and must be pushed the same way you pushed the custom sounds. https://www.dropbox.com/sh/iw4u1ak89vl233g/AADXINdF3qBGr65eWPOLNfJ5a?dl=0
Next on the list is the Penguin ROM N7 Animations Port.(Sadly not working on NH7 or Nk4) I think this might be one of the coolest animations I've seen. Ive used this port on the s4 and now here on the Note3. CPA Poke's install method uses TWRP but i used Philz Touch and it worked fine .This ported animation originally came from a developer by the name of Skyfall007(Maker of the Penguin Rom1.1 / 4.2.2) on the Nexus 7 forum found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=41820147 and seshmaru found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=16420559 for technical reasons i can barely comprehend and was ported over by CPA Poke. You can find him in the s4 forums and probably the Nexus 7 forums .Thank all these guys for their hard work. All the downloads and install/uninstall instruction for this animation port can be found in the link below.
HAPPY MODDING!!!!!! Penguin ROM N7 Animations Port http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=42424224

Posted a link up top .
So I was poking around and came acorss these in my travels. typically these would fall under the themes and apps section but beings they are listed for Note 4 apps I thought I'd post them here incase anyone was interested. Please give albe95 thanks for posting these over at the Galaxy s4 forum. (Note 4 apps.) Enjoy!!! http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s4/themes-apps/exclusive-note-4-apps-collection-t2882577
Got another mod here for all you guys and gals. Are you sick of that annoying droplet sound that you get everything you touch in app or menu? I know I sure was! So here's an alternative. The it will be a zip file you download THEY ARE NOT FLASHABLE!!!! They must be installed manually.
1)Use any root file manager and navigate to root system/media/audio/ui
2)Pull the TW_Touch.ogg and S_HW_Touch.ogg and save them to a new folder incase you wanna go back to stock sounds
3)Extract the content in the zip file that you downloaded from the link below.
3Copy the extracted files and paste them in there rightful places that you previously pulled your stock sounds from.
4) Back out of your file manager and reboot.
All done!!! Enjoy!
Just so you know the TW_Touch.ogg is for anything on screen that is touched and the S_WH_Touch.ogg is for your (Back) and (Menu)
Im gonna upload a few more options here shortly but for now check out the one I linked. Hope you like.
https://www.dropbox.com/s/eybkqkhce1w0htu/Droplet touch replacement.zip?dl=0
So I was going to upload more touch sounds which I am still going to do. The link below is my current setup which I find the sounds to match perfectly with the screen transitions mod that I'm running which would be the N7 posted above. However I thought I'd just throw this out there.
Assuming your already rooted and have a root file manger. (I use FX root manager)
If you go to root system/system/media/audio/ui theres a list of all the sounds for this device.
Just check out all the sounds available and find one you like for a touch sound.
Long press the sound you wish and a menu should appear.
Copy the sound and store it by press paste somewhere that is easy for you to access.
Now just rename the sound.
TW_Touch.ogg for screen touch and S_HW_Touch.ogg for (Back) and(Menu)
After you've renamed them go back into ui sounds and find the stock sounds I just listed and move them to a file incase you wanna return back to stock.
Now take the sounds you renamed and put them in the stock sounds place.
Back out and reboot. And there you go. (My touch sounds) https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95784891001609348 This is a NON-FLASHABLE zip
And as always have a back up just in case!!! If you've found this useful… Hit that thank you button!!!
Ok guys and gals I got something new for you. Are you a fan of S-finder and Quick Connect in your notification drop down but running a rom that doesn't have this included in the package? Well today is your lucky day my friends. I've tested and confirm working on fre3 rom 2.25b only so if you try with other roms please drop by to list the rom you've got it running on so that others may know. And incase you was wondering (tbltespr) is for the Sprint Note Edge. I was wondering if I would get some edge feature but S-finder and Quick Connect is all that popped up. Ok ok here are the steps to get this little tweak working.
Oh and I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOU DESTROY YOUR DEVICE SO TRY AT YOUR OWN RISK!!!
1) Have a back up or make a back up from the recovery of your choice of your current set up incase anything goes wrong in the process.
2) This is a build prop tweak so you will need to download a build prop editor from the playstore. I use this one but any will probaby work just as well. "Build Prop Editor"
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.joeykrim.buildpropeditor
3)You will need to download and install the Quick Connect apk non-flashable zip from this link here.
https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=95897840722645991
Theres 2 apk's in the download zip folder.
4)With your file manager navigate to your download folder find the zip you downloaded and tap to open then copy the 2 apk's then navigate to rooted system/systen/apps and paste the 2 files you copied and back out.
5)Once thats done open up the build prop editor you downloaded from the playstore.
6)Scroll over til you see where you do the editing now scroll down til you see
ro. product.name =hltespr and change it to tbltespr
ro.product.device = hltespr and change it to tbltespr
ro.build.product = hltespr and change it to tbltespr
7)When your done scroll back up and save your edit.
8)Now just reboot your device and profit.
If for any reason you wish to go back you can:
Restore your back up or change the tbltespr back to hltespr and delete the apk's and reboot.
Here's some screenshots if it helps. Hope you liked and happy modding!

Odin Update Zips
So I came across these Odin updates in my travels and wanted to share incase anyone was interested. I didn't see anything said anywhere really. Hope I'm not reposting something that is already on here.
Odin v3.09.3 https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347763515
Odin v3.10.6 https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=24052804347763513
Hope this helps someone!
Hi All !!
I was using this ROM for quite a while, thought i'll share my work with you all.
This is for i9200, But i am not sure if it would work for i9205.
Its based of stock i9200 i9200XXUDNK1 KitKat 4.4.2 from sammobile.com.
Its a mixture of Odexed and deodexed.
==============================================
The S5 features it has are,
Systemui of S5
Note 4 launcher (actually S5 launcher, i just themes the page navigator icons to look like Note 4)
Lockscreen of Note4
Settings of S5
Note 4 weather
Some S5 apps like Magazine, Group play, Group Camcoder, S5 gallery, S5 music, S5 contacts and dialer, SPlanner, SVoice, Voice Recorder, etc etc..
===============================================
Oops! lot of Note 4 mentioned above, but mainly its all got from S5.
Currently i am trying to search forums on how to make an Update.zip Rom so that you can all just flash it.
All i have now is just a backup of my Rom which i made using PhilzTouch 6.48
Please see the screen shots. attached.
Internet connection is slow.. so please gimme time to upload.
Will post the links soon on mediafire.

There are totally 12 files inside " 2015-01-16.07.49.38_KOT49H.I9200XXUDNK1 " folder.
2: Download PhilzTouch recovery version 6.48 and flash it
Reboot to the Phiztouch recovery and go to philzsettings-> uncheck md5 verification (thanks to Fredo2000)
3: Backup your current ROM (full backup - if in case anythin goes wrong) to sdcard or external sdcard (sdcard1).
4: Reboot to your current rom and connect your phone to the computer.
5: Now from your computer... Go to Computer->locate your phone-> go to memory card->clockwordmod folder->backup folder->paste here (the folder " 2015-01-16.07.49.38_KOT49H.I9200XXUDNK1 ) which was extracted on your desktop.

7: Reboot phone
8: Phone will boot with the new Lollipop Screen.
9: Wait for a minute till everythin looks fine and then go to settings add wifi networks and add account - Google
10: All the S5 customization will be intact in this method.
==================================================================================
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Second Method
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
===================================================================================
1: Download the CWM Flashable zip ROM named " S5ROMforMEGAi9200_17Jan2014.zip " from the below link
Link : https://www.mediafire.com/folder/qrtmbymle0c0d/Bevin_ROMs
2: Reboot to PhilzTouch Recovery
3: Wipe Factory Reset Phone -> clean to install a New ROM
4: Install Zip -> install from sdcard/sdcard1 -> S5ROMforMEGAi9200_17Jan2014.zip and flash.
5: Reboot to recovery again.
6: Re-root system using Philz touch miscellaneous settings.
7: setup wizard comes up and proceed till you get to the home screen.
8: You will find the navigation bar. Do not disable it in build.prop instead follow step 9.
9: Install Xposd Framework apk (search it and download it from google), open the app, install framework. reboot.
10: Install GravityBox KK apk from the download section of xposd app. Install it. Enable it in modules. Restart
11: go to gravitybox app reduce the size of the navbar to like 0 or 1 .. prefered is 0 using the slider.
12 That will get rid of the navigation bar (this is important for the dialer) and wil stil have the overflow menu enabled everywhere.
13: download AppSettings from xposed app under download section and install it. enable it in the modules section. reboot.
14: open App settings app and look for contacts.
15: change the dpi from 0 to 320 and save (this is important for the phone dialer to become full screen)
16: thats pretty much you have to do. everythin else is present already in the ROM.
17: to explore the various features.. long press the notification toggle icons.. it ll open a new menu which is not present in the settings.
18: using xposd app you can download even floating windows to make windows float like note 4.
===================================================================================
Some of the Apps are preloaded as I like it that way. You can uninstall them as you please.
This ROM has no bugs so far, so if you do find bugs - I will be happy to fix them and release another ROM later on.
If you Factory Reset your phone, you might lose certain customizations done on XPosed Framework. (Hence i suggest you not to unless you know what you are doing)
====================================================================================
If something does not work fine related to network bluetooth or Wifi (most unlikely) - Flash XXDNK1 modem.
====================================================================================
:good:
This ROM is stock Samsung ROM i9200XXUDNK1 (latest release of 4.4.2 from samsung) with S5 built in apps.
I use the stock baseband (modem) i9200XXUDNK1 and have face no issues so far.

22: Floating windows and all other tweaks are part of XPOSD
=======================================================================
Why didn't i share this earlier?
I was too busy flashing lollipop ROMs..and just realised this was better than everythin else.
So, spent more time fixin problems on the phone and now i share my work with all of you.
Hope you Enjoy my ROM as i do - but then it really doesn't matter to me if you do not.
If you dislike my work, just remember that no one ever shared a stupid S5 ROM before while all the other phones like S3 s4 and Note 2 Note 3 etc all had developers making S5 and note4 roms for these devices and none for us.
Feel free to rip my ROM apart and do whatever you want with it.
Thanks to Blekota for his Samsung S3 ROM. It made my Mega alive!!
Thanks to unclefab too.
You don't need to make a zip if you are rooted.
From your phone, open your android terminal and type:
su
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p20 of=/sdcard/system.img
Wait a bit, after a while you'll have your system.img in your sdcard (but make sure you have sufficient storage as it's a pretty big file).
Then, to anyone wanting to push it on one's phone, put the img file on your sd and type:
su
dd if=/sdcard/system.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p20
You can do it from adb too, just type adb shell before su.
If the phone doesn't boot after flashing the img you'll have to wipe wipe data and cache.
Did you keep the original boot.img or did you flash the S5's?
In case you used the S5's boot.img and want to add it to your rom, type this:
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p13 of=/sdcard/boot.img
@bevinabraham :
my connection is pretty slow too so I'd like to ask you 2 questions before I attempt to download:
1-did you replace the whole system/app and the whole system/framework folders?
2-how is the multi windows function? Any difference compared to the stock Mega 4.4.2?
Do you have that note 4 feature that enables to resize full screen windows from the screen edges (swiping down from either top left or top right)?
The proper way is to use an android kitchen (e.g. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=633246) but it seems that may be out of your wheel house. There are also ways to make a full update zip of your ROM via nandroid and some play store apps.

Hi,
Actually thats not what i am trying to do.
How to people get the starting new set up wizard etc when you just flash a rom? how do i export all the folders such as the whole system folder with the boot.img in it into a update.zip?
any code for that?
To answer your second question..
I did not replace the whole System APP PrivAPP and the framework folders as its a larger resolution that ours..
So, I just ported only a few files from the system app and a few files from the priv app and a lot of lib and etc files and twframework files.
Then i modded the stock frameworkres.apk file from the framework folder with the s5 frameworkres,apk .
So its pretty much the whole that we see outside is all of s5 stuff..but everythin under it which we cant see (are the stock functions)
and its not themed if thats what u meant.. the lockscreen is of note4..
The floating windows i got using Xposed framework. i can resize it..
The multiwindow is stock multi window.. from the DNK1 rom.. its slightly diff that the old ones i guess as u can add and edit items,.

Yes.. i ll try this.. i saw it in the recovery of PhilzTouch.. to clone the ROM.
trying it now.
The boot.img, if I understood well you kept the one from the mega so you can forget that part.
Then, there's no need for any starting wizzard, people just flash your system.img and get whatever tweaks you put inside, that's it.
You can of course use android kitchen, but the method I gave you is by far the easiest and the fastest.
Nowadays I use this method, I make my rom the way I like it and add this or that, then I make an .img image ready for flashing, and I only use android kitchen if I need to edit my boot.img.
Lat but not least, once you have a system.img you can pass it through 3 commands and make it an odin flashable file for people that aren't rooted.
Reagrding note 4, I'm not interested in lockscreen stuff, I just wanted to know if the multi windows function in your rom is the same than in the stock mega Kk or if it has new features.

I am onot sure if it would work on i9205, but then there is no reason why it should not work as this rom does not have the baseband/modem file etc.. just the boot and the system.
