[Android Themes] Exel:
So, people dun seem to be able to follow the instructions, I re-worded them and added more specific steps for you guys. I was making flashables for you guys, but if he updates this, you guys would need new ones, and I kind of don't want to have to do it every single time he updates this. So.. here is my attempt to contribute.

Note: You need APK Manager in order to sign the apk's in this mod. Create a folder in your desktop and call it Apk Manager.. extract the files there.

Windows : (4.9)

Linux : (4.3)

1. Download the layout here. Extract the folder onto your desktop for later use.

2. You need apktool for your OS, download here.

Windows:

Download apktool-install-windows-* file

Download apktool-* file

Unpack both to your Windows directory

Linux:

Download apktool-install-linux-* file

Download apktool-* file

Unpack both to /usr/local/bin directory (you must have root permissions)

Mac OS X:

Download apktool-install-macos-* file

Download apktool-* file

Unpack both to /usr/local/bin directory (you must have root permissions)

3. Open cmd/terminal, type apktool and press enter.

- If it shows you how to use apktool it means it works and we can start.

- If it says 'command is not recognized' you have to reinstall apktool and try again..

Let's start!

1. Pull/download/take framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk from your device, create new folder on your desktop and call it ICS and put both files there. (Folder name is case-sensitive.)

2. Open cmd/terminal, and type; cd desktop/ICS and press enter.

3. Now type; apktool d -f framework-res.apk and press enter, let it do it's work.

4. Once that's done, minimize the cmd/terminal and go into the ICS_Layout_by_Z25 folder on your desktop, then into the framework-res.apk, highlight the res folder (Don't go into it, just highlight it.) and press Ctrl+ C (Copy).

5. Now, go into the ICS folder on your desktop, you should see a newly created folder called 'framework-res.' Double click that folder and you will see a few xmls and folders in there.

6. Now press Ctrl+V (Paste) and a pop-up will appear asking if you really want to overwrite the folder and files in it, press yes.. it will only overwrite the files it needs to.

7. When that is done, go back into cmd/terminal and type; apktool b -f framework-res framework-res.apk and press enter, let it do it's work.

8. Once it's done, close cmd/terminal and sign it using Apk Manager, which you downloaded earlier in this post. (Select option 16) If you don't know how to use Apk Manager, look at the bottom of this post.

9. Once it's done, move the signed framework-res.apk back into ICS folder on your desktop.

10. Open cmd/terminal again and type; cd desktop/ICS and press enter.

11. Now type;

apktool if framework-res.apk

apktool d -f SystemUI.apk

Press enter.

12. Once that's done, minimize the cmd/terminal and go into the ICS_Layout_by_Z25 folder on your desktop, then into theSystemUI.apk, highlight the res folder (Don't go into it, just highlight it.) and press Ctrl+ C (Copy).

13. Now, go into the ICS folder on your desktop, you should see a newly created folder called 'SystemUI.' Double click that folder and you will see a few xmls and folders in there.

14. Now press Ctrl+V (Paste) and a pop-up will appear asking if you really want to overwrite the folder and files in it, press yes.. it will only overwrite the files it needs to.

15. When you are done go back to cmd/terminal and type; apktool b -f SystemUI SystemUI.apk and press enter, let it do it's work.

16. Once it's done, close cmd/terminal and sign it using Apk Manager, which you downloaded earlier in this post. (Select option 16) If you don't know how to use Apk Manager, look at the bottom of this post.

17. You are done, now you can make a flashable to flash your apk's to your phone or push them using adb.

SystemUI to /system/app

framework-res to /system/framework

If you will get a bootloop or any FC after you reboot do this;

1. Push your original framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk to your phone.

2. Reboot again, then push compiled files again it should work.

(Very same as my staturbar tweaks: patch, undo, patch.)

How to use Apk Manager;

1. Open the Apk Manager folder you created in your desktop, that you extracted the files to.

2. Look for 'place-apk-here-for-signing' and drag the apk you want to sign there.

3. Now, run Script.bat.

4. If it tells you adb not found, just press enter, and it will continue to a menu that gives you a lot of options.

5. Type in 16 and press enter.

6. It will tell you what it's doing, once it's done. Close it. You're done.
