hey i can nt find drawable-hdpi in systemui/res/(drawable-mdpi is there)
[Android Themes] Vivek_Neel:
It varies according to the device you are using.
[Android Themes] shaik baji:
then which one shouid i select and what should i do with that
[Android Themes] lacoursiere18:
Maybe it's Bc the folder is on your desktop...

Drawables folders contain pngs.. You can modify them..change color..size..etc..
[Android Themes] Ticklefish:
Drawable folders change according to your devices resolution.

My phone is a Xperia Z, which is a extra-extra-high-dots-per-inch device, so the drawable folder it uses is 'drawable-xxhdpi'.

If you have more than one drawable-whateverdpi folder and you don't know which one is yours, it's often worth changing the files in the folder that has the most images. That's most likely to be the one your devices uses.

Or just change files in every folder

I'm a little curious.

Can you recompile an apk (particularly the SystemUI.apk) by just re-zipping the files and then renaming the zip into .apk?

I kinda did it already when I edited some apks, but I don't remember how I really recompiled it. :confused: :fingers-crossed:

You can use that method only for image editing but not for XML editing. If you want to edit some XML, then you need to done the decompile and recompile thing.

[Android Themes] SpaceCaker:
goto styles.xml of systemui

in the style from the xml

it uses hex code for color so u currently use 2 types of color.
[Android Themes] lacoursiere18:
So your background is defined here(RED):

LinearLayout android:orientation="vertical" android:id="@id/onGoingCart" [COLOR="Red"]android:background="#ff293945"[/COLOR] android:focusable="true" android:visibility="gone" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="@dimen/status_bar_expanded_notification_category_height"

This originally was a @ drawable/notification_title_background..but now it is a hex color.. You can make it transparent

The size of the title is defined here(GREEN):

android:layout_height="@[COLOR="SeaGreen"]dimen/status_bar_expanded_notification_category_height[/COLOR]"

You can either find the dimen in res/values/dimens.xml or just delete that section and add "0.0dip", therefore making it not visible..

I have never personally got rid of this line but that should work.. If not post back and maybe I missed something:rolleyes:
