bump, please help

Hi everyone, awesome thread!

was wondering if someone could help me to figure out how to pull the settings button over to the left as far as possible in the notification pull down, here is a current shot of what it looks like now and the .apk

Does anyone know how to theme the Device Options window that pops up after holding the lock button for a few seconds? Been looking everywhere and not seeing anything helpful. This is the only piece I need to mod before I get my Darthstalker Rom themed just the way I want it:D

Should be in framework-res.apk/res/drawable-xhdpi/tw_dialog_bottom_medium_holo_dark.9 + tw_dialog_bottom_holo_dark.9

Look for images starting with tw_dialog in framework-res.apk /res/drawable-xdhpi

Can anyone tell me what I may be doing wrong here?
Instead of being smooth my image looks choppy.

I'm new to theming :(

I have a video demonstrating how I'm approaching it. Maybe you could figure it out if you look at it?

    Since the carriers were split up and the most posts in the original thread came from the AT&T themers, I think we should make that the main thread.
    [All Carriers]Touch Wiz Themeing Questions
    Please post in the thread linked above so we can keep all the info in one thread.

    Since themeing Samsung's TouchWiz UI is not quite as simple as AOSP, and sometimes even device specific, I thought it would be nice to have thread for the themers here to help each other, post tips and things like that so we can all learn and get some killer themes going on this thing.

    Also, (if this gets becomes a sticky) we can keep the themeing question threads to a minimum.

    For those of you that don't know me, I've been themeing Android for about a year and a half now. I started on the Epic 4G then moved over to the Nexus S 4G. I'm always willing to help others at time permits.

    Happy Themeing!

    Since the US carriers were combined into one forum, please note the carrier for you device when posting.

    When people are helping you make sure you use the "Thanks" button to show your appreciation!

    Here are some goodies that have been posted so far.

    Hmm. The only images I see on the ROM from there are the toggles. I also changed the extended power menu icons at framework-res, but I haven't had any luck finding how to edit the background color of the menus. I've been told it is in res/values/styles.xml but I don't know which line(s) to edit. There are more than 2000 lines in there.

    I was told it's the popup dark pngs in framework res drawable xhdpi. :D

    Thanks, I'll check once more.

    Popup dark top, middle, and bottom. There's 3.

    Can someone explain why I cant decompile any 4.2 systemui's? I am using apk multitool. I can decompile and recompile framework-res all day long but systemui's always error out saying that the file can not be found? Any help would be appreciated.

    You probably need to add the latest APKTOOL to your system path. There should be three files you can add there.

    does anyone know what controls the color of the text in the header titles that are blocked off so i can change the hex to transparent.
    I'm thinking SecContacts.apk res/values/colors.xml but not sure which one, if anyone could help out it would be much appreciated,

    In the layout folder, open actionbar_custom_tab.xml

    There is a text view line...add

    android:visibility="gone"


    to that line and you should be good to go.
