[Android General] bilalz400:
bro i want to change the font colour on the pop up windows (for eg select home application)

i am themeing it into holo so black text is invisible so can u please help me in that :)
[Android General] ibanez7:
I'm not yet experiencing on JB 4.3,.. try to search in the other thread .. ;)

You need to edit framework-res.apk, go to values folder​​ and open styles.xml,

find this line :

<style name="TextAppearance.Large.Inverse" parent="@android:style/TextAppearance.Large">

Change to this :

<style name="TextAppearance.Large.Inverse" parent="@android:style/TextAppearance.Large">
<item name="android:textColor">#ffffffff</item>
<item name="android:textColorHint">#ff000000</item>
</style>

Recompile...., Good luck ;)
[Android General] bilalz400:
Recompiled , replace on device, reboot and then WINN!! thx man now how to change the top colour of the same window which is white (i want to change to blue)
[Android General] ibanez7:

<item name="textAppearance">@style/TextAppearance</item>
<item name="textAppearanceInverse">@style/TextAppearance.Inverse</item>
[COLOR="Blue"]<item name="textColorPrimary">#ff33b5e5</item>[/COLOR]

EDIT, I mean on framework-res.apk : res\value\styles.xml
[Android General] WRwallence:

[Android General] hackerpower:
@OP

Installed and copied everything like you said in the tut.

I get this message after i execute the command "apktool if framework-res.apk":

'java' is not recognized as an internal or external command...

what's wrong?
[Android General] ibanez7:
Use Windows 7 or XP or?

Save or extract apktool to folder directory :

Windows XP : C:\Document and Settings\folder your computer name\here

Windows 7 : C:\User\folder your computer name\here

And please save framework-res.apk or anything apk file and jar file on :

Windows XP : C:\Document and Settings\folder your computer name\here

Windows 7 : C:\User\folder your computer name\here

I'm sure its working perfectly ;)
[Android General] hackerpower:

i can't install framework 4 on my Notebook , i don't why, i using Windows xp on my Notebook
[Android General] sam@xda29:
For install framework.

Then cd to apktool folder nd after that type..

Apktool if framework-res.apk..

And then it will installed.

Okay, thanks for the info, i will test on any android version (GB, ICS , JB, even Kitkat later) if it work fine, i will update the tools ;)

Yes, I think for better compatibility, you can install all "Microsoft Net.Framework" on your window, from Net.Framework 1 until Net.Framework 4, as well as the android sdk requires net.framework

How you judged i am indonesian by name? anyways here are the screen shots

Basically All the button's text needs to be changed to white
[Android General] ibanez7:
LOL, I'm just guessing ....;)

about your problem, it's the Widget Button, just follow this guide :

- Decompile framework-res.apk

- Go to res\values ​​and open styles.xml

Find this line :

<style name="Widget.Button" parent="@style/Widget">

and change like this :

<style name="Widget.Button" parent="@style/Widget">
<item name="textAppearance">?textAppearanceSmallInverse</item>
<item name="textColor">[COLOR="Blue"]#ffffffff[/COLOR]</item>
<item name="gravity">center</item>
<item name="background">@drawable/btn_default</item>
<item name="focusable">true</item>
<item name="clickable">true</item>
</style>

- Recompile

[Android General] rayman25:
i have followed your guide to theme my phone running JB 4.1.2 for my samsung sgh t-989

what i need is to make the phone answering cercle blue in the picture it's green and when i slide it the circle gets bigger but stays green their is no png file in Secphone or SecContacts that can be themed to do this i look the most important APK in the rom but cant find animation that correspond to the behavior on the phone when i answer it.

do you know how to do this ???

thanks
[Android General] bilalz400:
I am not that sure But there shall be an option saying "Show Percentage" Just remove the check on that in Settings>Battery
[Android General] Dzepar:
Thanks, but I don't have that option in settings so I need to edit SystemUI.apk.

Sent from my ST26i
[Android General] ibanez7:
- Decompile SystemUI.apk

- Go to res\layout and open status_bar.xml

- Find this line :

<TextView android:layout_gravity="left|center" android:id="@id/battery_text"

and add this blue line :

[COLOR="Blue"]android:visibility="gone"[/COLOR]

before the last line of this :

style="@style/StatusBarNotificationText" />

So it looks like this :

<TextView android:layout_gravity="left|center" android:id="@id/battery_text" android: paddingLeft="4.0dip" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:text="@string/status_bar_settings_settings_button" android:singleLine="true" [COLOR="Blue"]android:visibility="gone"[/COLOR] style="@style/StatusBarNotificationText" />

- Recompile

I'm not sure my guide for Gingerbread also work on Jelly bean, but about your problem... are you sure have checked all png file on all folder at Secphone and SecContacts? if nothing.. you can find it on framework-res.apk or twframework-res.apk.
[Android General] Dzepar:
Thanks, but this also hide the numbers of battery and i just want to hide the % sign not the number, like it is in CM.

Thanks again for your effort.
[Android General] rayman25:
ok i will recheck

systemui

secphone

seccontact

framework and twfrawork and let you know

thanks

---------- Post added at 05:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:02 PM ----------

cant find anything that will help me theme that

but it looks like it is 3 or more png files it cant be a xml

but cant find them
[Android General] ibanez7:
LOL... Sorry, I forgot to write down partly guide.

After finished editing this :

- Decompile SystemUI.apk

- Go to res\layout and open status_bar.xml

- Find this line :

<TextView android:layout_gravity="left|center" android:id="@id/battery_text"

and add this blue line :

[COLOR="Blue"]android:visibility="gone"[/COLOR]

before the last line of this :

style="@style/StatusBarNotificationText" />

So it looks like this :

<TextView android:layout_gravity="left|center" android:id="@id/battery_text" android: paddingLeft="4.0dip" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:text="@string/status_bar_settings_settings_button" android:singleLine="true" [COLOR="Blue"]android:visibility="gone"[/COLOR] style="@style/StatusBarNotificationText" />

Then go to strings.xml and public.xml, open and please delete this line :

- on strings.xml

<string name="status_bar_settings_battery_meter_format">%d%%</string>

- on public.xml

<public type="string" name="status_bar_settings_battery_meter_format" id="0x7f09001c" />

- Recompile

Maybe on (But i'm not sure) :

on SecPhone :

- call_dial_btn_blue_press.9.png

- call_dial_btn_green_press.9.png

- call_dial_btn_red_press.9.png

on SecContacts :

- call_dial_btn_green_press.9.png

- call_dial_btn_green_press_h.9.png

- call_dial_btn_yellow_press.png

After recompile apk there is another step before sign apk, to copy & place META-INF folder & AndroidMainfest.xml from older apk to newly compile apk.

I guess in this step by mistake you replace res folder too that cause to revert back old xml files.

Hi ibanez7

Could you tell me how to change the font and font color of my sms (sms only and not the system font).

Thank you
[Android General] rayman25:
ok i used this guide to recompile and sign my SystemUI.apk and everything is ok now

- recompile the apk with code: apktool b -f -d SystemUI

-then the apktool will create new folder named "build" and "dist"

- open the build/apk/ , copy and replace the original META-INF folder and AndroidManifest.xml into it. (for signing)

- recompile again by using command code: apktool b SystemUI

- your modded file will be in "dist" folder.

Done:)

[Android General] j.posarekar70:
here is what you needed i guess... : XPOSED : PerApp fonts

yeh there you made mistake...

when first time you compile apk & going to place folder you don't have to extract apk just open as archive in 7zip both apk's & replace files.

Next after set files you again recompile apk it doesn't need...after place files to newly compile apk close 7zip window & go further to signing step
[Android General] mastaan:
Thank you j.posarekar70 but I want modify my SecMms.apk not to use PerApp fonts
[Android General] rayman25:
no mistakes were made my friend when first you recompile the apk after all the mods you made you will have two new files in the folder

dist and build

inside dist you will find the moded apk without the meta-inf and androidmanifest.xml ( but i delete that apk that is created )

inside the build file is another file APK and inside that file are the file you would find inside the original apk except meta-inf and androidmanifest.xml

go inside the original apk using 7zip and extract both folders inside the build / APK / ( meta-inf and androidmanifest.xml )

after doing that recompile using this command

apktool b XXXX ( x representing the file you are working in )

after that step go back to dist folder and your APK will be there and you are done

it is signed and ready to be pushed or updated in recovery ( recovery is better IMO )

hope that is clear really easy this way go to the link I put above ;)

They work all with 900/1800 and 900/1900 Networks.

Some of them (I know the 4.01.16) have the problem, that they set the device to 900/1900 on installing, so you have to go once in the bootloader menu and have to set it manually to your old network back....

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] exad:
You said you can't change the CID, Did they change the CID back? Is it CWS__001?

Also, it is possible to run 3.18 rooted if your bootloader is already unlocked but you cannot unlock the bootloader with CID CWS__001 and 3.18 as 3.18 blocks system write which you need to change the CID to unlock the bootloader.
