How to change the default call picture?

---

Could someone help me with this? Is it a regular PNG, is it a apk, or what? I have no idea at all of where to find it...

The picture I'm talking about is the Android that is on the screen when you make calls to numbers that don't have a contact photo.

Any and all help is, of course appreciated.

i would love to be able to change that, hope its possible

its a png that needs to be changed in the phone apk

I think it's in framework-res.apk

Check /system/framework/framework-res.apk, unzip it and look inside, it should be somewhere there.

@ McCurt: Where is that located?

@Genius: Ok, I'll check that now

It is in apps>phone.apk
res>drawable-hdpi

image is called phone_default_icon.png

needs to be 480x618 attached to the one I am using... not sure why it attached as a .jpg so here is a screen shot

Hey thank you. I found it, and I've edited, zipped up, and signed the apk file, but, for some reason, it won't let me install it.

Is there anyone who can take a look over this and see what I did wrong?

I'm using HTC Sync to push the file through to install it, but it's not letting me do it on the phone end.

Try this:

adb remount
adb shell rm /system/app/Phone.apk
adb push *your apk's name* /system/app/Phone.apk

I don't know about doing it as an installable apk file. I take a flashable .zip, open it (not extract... just double click into it) browse to the apk, drag and drop the new .png, and close it back up. Then I just flash the zip using Rom Manager.


EDIT: I see Geniusdog showed you how to push it

Well, I just did that, and now I can't make calls at all...

Jesus. What do I do now?
