It is important to work with the original file and not to Save as but overwrite the original file. I use Gimp for photo editing.

And I copy the edited file directly in the apk. I do not extract the files from the apk file just extract the file in question, edit then ovewrite the file in the apk.

that is also what im doing. i just open the apk via winrar, extract the file and edit (i use photoshop) then make new layer then overylay the stock png with new png then save. then replace the file via winrar

Hi
I've installed latest beta, 1031.
It still don't have contacts and calendar sync you need gapps or sync apk's
Also I can't open display properties nor APN details.

You need to flash gapps - Slim_minimal_gapps.4.4.2.build.3 for Google services to work properly (including sync).

Just download GoogleContactsSynchAdapter.apk. Thats all you need.

soft key light effects

Cant we change the soft key light effects like stock alcatel rom?
In this rom they glow even we touch the display,
But in stock they glow only when we touch the soft keys
And allso I want to know is there an app which we can turn on the display by touching the display after xx seconds after screen timed out
Thank you!

settings error

You need to flash gapps - Slim_minimal_gapps.4.4.2.build.3 for Google services to work properly (including sync).
I have gapps installed.
I found that Settings-res.apk on first post was the reason.
I've replaced it with the original and now I can access all settings.

I've also edited SystemUI-res myself, this is what I did:

- Download apktool 2.0.0RC2
- Pull framework-res.apk and mediatek-res.apk from /system/framework
- Install both framewors using apktool:

apktool if framework-res.apk
apktool if mediatek-res.apk

- Pull SystemUI-res.apk from /custpack/JRD_custres/app/
- unpack apk files

apktool d SystemUI-res.apk

- edit settings:

on SystemUI-res/res/values/integers.xml

quick_settings_num_columns -> 4

on SystemUI-res/drawable-xxhdpi/

stat_sys_gemini_signal_*_blue.png edited with gimp to be white.
notification_panel_bg edited with gimp to be black.

- build apk

apktool b SystemUI-res

- apk will be on SystemUI-res/dist/
- Push new apk

I'll try to modify Settings-res and maybe others, I still want to re-arange quick settings.
Regards.
