Is it possible to use an APK decompiler and edit the UI of Spotify? I don't have an experience coding, but I'm sure I could figure it out.
Can anyone help?
Yes, the only problem is anytime you update the app, you will have to re apply any of the changes you make. Your simplest changes would be like any other app using the .png files, xml edits are a lot more complicated and more difficult to figure out with no/limited xml experience. I don't have that particular APK on hand at the movement, but open it up and look for the drawable folders in the res folder. These are going to be the simplest changes to make, you can swap or edit these .png files.
Hi,
So I've tried many times to edit buttons(in framework), but the problem is that they are resizeable during the usage and each time I edit them (with Photoshop) the layout is just changed. Even after simply color change. So instead of cool a looking button I get an egg(shape).
How do You edit these buttons?
Please help if You know.

I assume you're editing .9.png's? Images with the extension .9.png need to be manipulated a bit to get them to work right when editing. .9.png's have extra information attached to them with regards to stretching and re-sizing. Editing them with Photoshop destroys this extra information. Do a quick search on how to edit .9.png's.

Thanks, I haven't noticed that it's *.9.png extension. I thought it's a normal *.png.
Will search for it
Hello, I am trying to make an android live wallpaper for Xperia P.
The resolution for the screen is 540x960.
1) I exported the animation as .mp4 and it came out around 4mb. Is there a way to create an .apk using this mp4 file that will work as live wallpaper and if yes how?
2) Do I have to multiply the width if I want to fit more than one screens? So for three, would it be 540 x 3?
3) Can I just repeat the main live wallpaper(540x960) instead of multiplying the width so that the same animation appears on all screens?
Thanks in advance :good:
Anyone that has created a live wallpaper before willing to help?
For that you will have to decode the video yourself so that it can be drawn on canvas if you can do it then it can be done its difficult I know but that is the only way

So I found this tool to create the live wallpaper using a video file: http://www.lwpcreator.com/
The tool was made using code from another tool an xda member made.
But I encounter one issue, the animation skips always on the same frames so it's not smooth. The video format I used is .avi I tried few of them .mp4 was even worse.
Any idea why would that happen or how to fix it?
It's the tool's fault afterall it's not easy to generalize a code so that it can be used in different forms that's why coding is preferred over tools if it were this way anyone could build a graphic vedio and use it as live wallpaper and have it published
Bad luck my friend try contacting the developer of the tool he might know the answer

I hear there is a live wallpaper tutorial on the SDK? Can I use that and explore it so I can get an idea? I suppose it doesn't use video and draws it on canvas, the animations are coded but I could give it a try.
If you know which SDK/tools I have to download from the manager let me know.
EDIT: Nvm I found it. If you have knowledge about drawing a video on the canvas and you can help me out, let me know.

Send me your file I will make it for you. Takes about 5min
Also send me the raw mp4 or m4a or what ever video format it is. I will just use that. i have got one here as a template with a video decoder already built into it. Its nothing fancy. It plays in a loop and you can pick the frame rate.

HELP?
Hey guys, i have the same problem
I am quite good at animating and GFX, and i have tested my videos as wallpapers with the video live wallpaper app. But i was wondering, how can i create an actual APK out of this, so i can show it to some friends of mine, and why not publish it in google play? Any tutorial i have seen has been useless, all i want is a tutorial where i will only have to write down some code, load the video file, and then to convert it all in a .apk file?
Hey everyone, I was not quite sure where to post this so I'll put it here.
I recently took on the task of theming the KIk Messenger app.
I sucessfully decompiled and edited images, but I want to change the chat background. There is no .9.png or .png for this in the drawable-xhdpi folder. So I had to look in the XMLs. After I looked in the values folder, I find an XML labeled colors. Going through this, I find some different lines like "chat_background_color" so I edit the hex color codes as I liked and then I saved and closed XML Notepad.
I recompiled the apk and signed it, and then installed it back to my phone. I open up the app and find that nothing has changed. What am I doing wrong? I've tried editing all sorts of text, and even when I decompile again and look at the XML, my changes are still there, so why arent they showing up?
Please help!
