[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] lucaoldb:
So this is a simple how to aimed to people with unrooted phones that still want to replace the icons inside Samsung Themes.

First of all, just a bit of theory:)

1) Samsung Thems are simple apk files, so you can edit them and re-install without any trouble, they don't need a particular signature by Samsung.

2) The icons inside such themes are in qmg format, which is a proprietary format that cannot be converted without Samsung Theme designer's kit or by using the built-in converter which is in our phones... It's something that packs a png file and an xml one andnot even imagemagick for Linux can convert it.... No problem, you can replace qmg files in themes with png files flawlessly, you just need to rename them as png:)

So, you need apk extractor (see play store) which can extract installed apk very easily (even system files) without root and apkeditor pro (see play store as well) wich is a very handy tool for minimal decompiling. I am not affiliated to apk editor pro and you can obviously do the same thing with apk tool and a pc, though this simple how to is for 'noob dummy themers' and it makes more sense to use just your phone than apktool.

Once you have installed such apps, open apk extractor and look for the apk you must edit. Let's say you want to edit the material theme by Cambunch (see galaxy store). So, you will find two apk files with cambunch etc.... Choose the first one, the one with the words appicon inside and extract it. It will be placed into the folder ExtractedApk

I don't like, in such theme, the icons for calendar and messages, which are green and yellow, so I replaced them with google original ones. Just download them somewhere and rename them to qmg. I mean, if the original file was named message.png, just rename it to message.qmg for example.

Now open apk editor pro and choose to edit an apk file, go to ExtractedApk folder, choose the theme you have extracted and choose simple edit....

You should see a partially decompiled apk.... Go to res folder and then open the drawable etc.. folder

Inside that folder you'll see several qmg files... Look for the one that refers to message (the names are quite self explanatory) and click the 'pen' option, then use the file manager to choose the icon message.qmg you've saved as said above and replace the original one with the new icon. It can obviously been done with any icon inside that folder.

Now follow the steps suggested by the app itself and install the new apk over the former and your theme will have been updated.

If the theme had already been applied, move to a different one (even the default one) and then apply it back to see the changes.

Very simple:)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] lucaoldb:
Just as a sample, this is the apk modded with calendar and message icon respectively in blue and light blue like the original ones by Google. It must be installed as an update of the nice theme by Cameron Bunch
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] iTouch24:
How can you pull out the keyboard from a theme and apply without root?

AnThOnY- S7 Edge
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] lucaoldb:
It is not so simple, you need apktool and a pc. Apk editor is unable to fully decompile the apk files of samsung themes.

To be honest, I haven't played with themes yet and I don't exactly know how they are applied to keyboard, notification bar and so on.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] meyerweb:
Cool! Thanks for posting this. I used this to edit the soft keys on my last LG, but didn't realize it would work for themes, too. Got some editing to do when I get back from my next trip.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] lucaoldb:
Glad you appreciate it:)

I googled a little bit and saw that you can't make a theme from scratch without Samsung's proprietary software which is reserved to approved designers only, but still it should be possible to edit a free theme and changing it into something different. I mean, not only the icons, even the Ui. At least for the things that this theme engine allows to be themed.

I would like a ubuntu touch theme or a Sony xperia one, which are not available in the theme store, but atm I have just been able to replace the icons... I have to get some spare time to decompile a theme on my pc:)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] jisharka:
Why several APK files inside?

Hi,

Followed the procedure. But when choose simple edit, it shows several apk files inside the main apk file. how to replace the images?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] lucaoldb:
I replied to your PM. It depends on the theme.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] buddy66:
I have the same issue with sd-Black theme. Only apk files in assets folder, no res folder. Any way to do it?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] lucaoldb:
I am sorry, but I am now on Echoerom note 7 port which has the new theme store, so I can't directly check the old themes for the s7.

Anyway, when I posted this thread, I had had a look only at a couple of themes, which were very simple do as the ones by Cameronbunch. In the following day I realised that in the theme store there a basically to kind of themes and the ones of the second kind are much more complicated to edit.

To be honest, after opening this short thread, I haven't spent any time in editing themes, but I don't think apk editor is powerful enough for the themes of the second kind. You'd better go with apktool, since you need to decompile not only the main apk, but even the ones inside it.

Sorry for not being very helpful.

I have req for someone with root, can you share here themes from store: Athletics sports and Sparkle. I want to mix it and change some things. Thanks in advance.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Themes, Apps, and Mods] ionutdicu:
the easiest way: use "awesome icons" app from google play (free); than, install any icon pack that you like (I prefer Note 7 icon pack), open the mentioned app and it will give you the possibility to change any icon from each app installed in the phone, keeping the functionality (eg: unread count badge for emails); you can opt for an icon in the icon pack or a picture or any .png/.jpg etc file

I am experiencing a similiar problem on the Trinity. If I install a new fresh ROM (Ive tried several, currently running Marys) and then install a few normal applications (tomtom, Googlemaps, Messenger and so on) after a few days it wont start up after switching it off.

A hard reset solves the problem, but Im starting to get a bit tired of doing a hard reset every other week.

I tried to roll back to the factory default firmware (witn no GPS activated) and then installed MunRus's newest..however the problem came back after a few days use.

[Xperia Z3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Danchou-san:
I currently have a Sony Xperia Z3 with the Existenz MM 3.6.0 rom in it, but it is always stuttering when not turning off the phone for a long time. My phone literally kinda stops/stutters every second, like as example: "This *bzz* is *bzz* killing *bzz* me". I already checked if there aren't any clocks that caused this (because of the every second thing), but there's no problem. The stuttering happened when I installed the Existenz MM 1.0.5 rom. I never had this problem when I had an official rom of Sony, Cyanogenmod 12.1, RXSW and Existenz LP 7.0.0.

The stuttering always goes away after I restart my phone and it just runs smoothly for the time being.

What a already did to stop the stuttering:

Cleaned junk files

Cleaned app cache

Wiped cache partition

Wipe dalvik cache

Downloaded Speed Up Swap

Downloaded L Speed

Downloaded Greenify

Downloaded Servicely

Any clocks

But all result in either no bars or same bad call quality
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rhoban:
Does the ROM have any sound mods that could be messing with the call quality?
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] alonxd0020:
I believe it has some sort of sound mod ( atleast it enables you to choose custom preset for like viper4android ) but other person in call is also hearing the metalic distortions so i assume it affects the microphone and not just the audio, so i dont think its the sound mod.

[LG G5 Accessories] gurningchimp:
Can't you just use a travel plug adaptor? Also, if you go to UK it'll be different from mainland Europe (in fact I'm pretty sure there are variations all over the European Union...)
[LG G5 Accessories] fonix232:
EU uses standard sockets and plugs compatible with each other (Type C, E, F, J, K L, all compatible with plug type C, which is used by most of the devices requiring 2A or less, seen in the main post). UK uses type G, only compatible with itself. However, some G sockets are manufactured in a way that a standard C plug (or E/F) can be plugged in too, albeit without grounding.

But indeed the best option is a travel adapter.
[LG G5 Accessories] gurningchimp:
Nice one for clearing that up - as a UK resident I obviously don't want anything to do with Europe (just kidding - aghast at current vote to leave EU).

Hi Polloloko,

To disable the StartUp sound, use Advanced Configuration Tool by Schaps (free cab available here: click here), or it may be already cooked into your ROM:

Once in it, click on HTC Animation / Startup WAV file / type in "silence.wav"

I've never heard of a Shutdown WAV, but if you can find it on Advanced Configuration, do the same as above.

Hope this helps,

Mattster.
