Does it matter I'm on Abysm?

OK been playing around and bit and think I have something going. Question is where do you find the files to edit statusbar clock color, the 3g and signal bars, and the icons in the drop down statusbar? Thanks for any help and I really appreciate the tutorial mopar, been wanting to do this for awhile.

Look in the SystemUI.apk

[mopar57]

How do I add more than one? Just add one, get error, add the next, etc?

Honestly, This is the point I have had to to it by hand. And its in command prompt and not as simple as choosing numbers

If you just download the 3 files(apktool, apktool.jar and aapt) and give them root permissions, you can use Terminal. Much easier. In terminal type

Apktool install framework framework-res.apk

Apktool install framework moto-res.apk

Apktool install framework blur-res.apk

You will now see a apktool folder with 3 folders in them 1 2 3.

Grab the apk you want to decompike, drop it in the /home folder and in terminal type.

Apktool d filename.apk out

It will be in /home/out

To recompile in terminal type

cd out
Apktool b

It will recompile.

OK I have to give it to you guys I have a new respect for how much time it takes to make these themes. Here are a couple screenshots of my work since last night. I'm working on the battery percents now to make the numbers bigger. Any feedback would be great.

Looks good! and yes themes take a long time..considering all the images that can be replaced.

@mopar57 Thanks I loved your theme on Eclipse btw. I have a question for you though. When I go to decompile the setting.apk I get an error. It still puts the folder for modding in projects but I'm not sure if I want to go ahead with it. Is that normal?

[MrFrankRazr]

I gotta get mine working tonight. Flashing mopar's zip didn't work for me.

EDIT: I got this to work. Changed the color of some icons and flashed with success.

[MrFrankRazr]

Question...After to change say like 20 icon colors and then want to do another theme, do you have to each icon one at a time all over again? Or, can you do a batch color change?
Thanks!

normal, you need to set the dependices for it.

Look at DT's comment for the best way

You can try a batch...but it might be a hit or missed depending on the color of the original. If its solid color a batch should work, if it fades/shines/etc then try it and inspect...learn from attempts!

OK cool will try. I'm doing a Yellow theme..Steelers inspired...I changed the blue color for the Glow to Yellow and it works great!
