[Galaxy Note 4 Themes and Apps] DUHAsianSKILLZ:
How to port themes (systemui only)

---------------------------------

I have ported many Note 4 and also S4 themes. It's as simple of copy and paste. Please someone correct me if I have the wrong folder as I only theme for TouchWiz tablets.

You must have

Framework-res.apk, SystemUI apk pulled from your device (Framework res apk is located in system--》Framework in root explorer. SystemUI can be found in system--》priv-apk.

Make sure you have notpad++ installed.

Make sure you have a nandroid backup avalible.

Make sure you have advancedapktool on your desktop. Drag the advanced apktool folder on your desktop and leave the contents inside of the folder.

Use the advanced apktool and place your note 4 framework-res.apk and SystemUI apk in the "In" folder. Then open advancedapktool.exe and type in 1 and install the framework-res . Then go back and decompile the apk. To decompile type 2, then type the apk number listed. Then hit yes. Then now after decompiling, your apk it now in the out folder. You will be theming inside of SystemUI.apk-》res-》 drawable-xhdpi.

Now, download any lollipop theme from the Note 4 theme from this thread. Doesnt matter which model.

Now right click on the apk you downloaded and open with winrar or 7zip. Now go into res -> drawable-sw800dp-xhdpi or drawable-xhdpi. Somtimes it may look like drawable-sw600dp-xhdpi or something. Find the folder that has something like drawble-sw ....... something. Each device is different soo yeah. I think the note 4 may be drawable-xhdpi or somesort.

Now inside the drawable-sw (something) folder or drawable-xhdpi look for pictures named something like tw_quick_panel_ bla bla bla. Highlight all those tw_quick_panel pngs and drag them into (decompiled systemui from your device) your drawble-sw (something) or drawable-xhdpi folder of your decompiled apk in the out folder of the advanced apktool. DO NOT COPY THE .9pngs. You will face errors. Make sure they are icons!

Now after copying and pasting those pictures, its time to modify the colors.xml inside of res-》"values" folder, to match the colors of the systemui. Open colors.xml and right click and open with notepad++. Simply just follow this guide http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s4/themes-apps/guide-how-to-theme-tw-systemui-t3065965/post59725314 and change the color codes to whatever the color the theme your trying to port to match the color. Then hit save and recompile. Done! Flash back to your device.

COLOR CODES

When you need to change something likes #ff0000000 or somesort. This website should help you find the right colors. Make sure you LOWERCASE the letters. https://closedxml.codeplex.com/wikipage?title=Excel Indexed Colors

When I mean lowercase the letters.. delete the capitals and lowercase them.
