Hi,
Does anyone have any idea what program was used or what program can be used to create these kind of actual working icons?
I would like to create icons such as these for my Android phone. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

ADW Launcher and cooking

Hi All,
I'm wondering if anyone knows how to define the settings for ADW.Launcher in a custom ROM. Is there some sort of XML file I can put in /system or something?
I'd like to pre-define the icons/widgets on the desktop and the action buttons.

Umm. You would need to look at how ADW stores its settings just now. They will be in /data/data/com.adw.launcher/ or something like that. Play with the files there and see what happens and look inside the sqlite databases etc.
Then try putting those files into the data folder of your zip.Give that a go.
Did anybody get this to work yet? A similar question was asked in this thread:

I replied with an XML file I found that may be useful, but I didn't get a chance to test it yet.

Windows .ttf Editor

Does anyone know of a free Windows program that allows you to edit .ttf files?
I'm looking to change the font type of the numbers of the NT's DroidSansBold.ttf file so that my status bar clock is in a different font.
I understand it will also change all other system numbers in that same font, and that's fine. To be honest, I'm more curious now just to find a program that will allow me to do this, haha.
I did a pretty extensive Google search and tried a few different programs (FontForge, Font Creator), but it doesn't seem like they have the ability to do what I need.
Could someone point me in the right direction? Or is this just not possible at all?
This will be my one and only bump on this thread. If anyone can help me out, let me know. Thanks.
MMM
nvm xD

[Q] notification_header_bg problems

I am learning how to make themes and using as a base the Android 4.4 KitKat Theme by Global Sense (in Google Play). I wanted to start by making simple changes, like the notification_header_bg. First I made the image in Gimp and saved it to res/drawable-xhdpi (even if my device is HDPI). Then, I added this code to res/xml/com_android_systemui.xml:
Code:
<item name="drawable/notification_header_bg">@drawable/notification_header_bg</item>
And then I had the problem. It's like the image is overlapping itself, and, even if it's not transparent, it's looking brighter on one side. Does anybody know how can I fix this? Thanks!

Try editing the smali files. You need to tell the status bar to disappear.

[Q] Simple Glass icon help?

Hi all,
So I'm using the theme simple glass.and I want to make a few changes to the original icon set on the home screen. Since these are shortcuts, they point to an icon image but I am having a terrible time finding where they are stored. So if you can help with that that would be great. The follow up question would be: do most designers include a broader icon set or just the ones they used? Which would then lead me to ask where to find the rest.
I know these are basic questions but I am just starting down this particular road and need to get some beginner crap out of the way. Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Thanks for your enthusiasm, and glad to have you on board. Themer's icons aren't really stored, they are built into the app. Frustrating but this is to prevent users stealing the icons that are from other designers.
For the icons, unfortunately the designer who created the icons has now removed them. After much searching, the only result we could find was this one here. The only problem is that it's a paid icon pack, and we can't guarantee that the pack will look the same.
Sorry about that!

Thanks Marco. I think I have it figured out. I am hunting through some icon sets for Everything Widget. Just need to find one I like. Great app!
