[HOW-TO]Resize Recent Apps Thumbnails

---

I found the way how and I wanted to share it. I'm not advanced on that.

1. Decompile SystemUI.apk

2. Go to \res\values\dimens.xml

3. Change
<dimen name="status_bar_recents_thumbnail_width">XXX.0dip</dimen>
<dimen name="status_bar_recents_thumbnail_height">XXX.0dip</dimen>
to your like.

4. Recompile

5. Use it

- You better leave the same proportions of the thumbnail width and height, or I guess they'll look weird. Approximately, it is at 1,13xxx.

- You can change the app title size by changing
<dimen name="status_bar_recents_app_label_text_size">XX.0dip</dimen>

- You can change the icon size by changing
<dimen name="status_bar_recents_app_icon_max_width">XX.0dip</dimen>
<dimen name="status_bar_recents_app_icon_max_height">XX.0dip</dimen>

- You can change app label color by changing
in file \res\values\colors.xml the line
<color name="status_bar_recents_app_label_color">#ff0dc5e0</color>


the result:

...and the app title color.

Did you decompile? When it is that resources.arsc or whatever turns into the values folder

I changed the icons. There is a thread for the softkeys with a lot of them and a guide.
These one are uploaded by me.
