[GUIDE][MOD][4.0.4] System Black background to Transparent background

[Mohitash]

***Here is a guide for making System Black background to Transparent background on Samsung ICS devices ***

This guide should work for JB also​

Things you need:

• Tool for decompiling/compiling work (I will not cover this, there are many guides for this)
• Notepad++
• Some common sense

Here, we will edit one file:

• framework-res.apk

Here we start---

Decomiple framework-res.apk

Open res/values/styles.xml with Notepad++

Search-

[B]"Theme.Holo"[/B]

Under this style you will find:

"windowShowWallpaper">false

Change this to:

"windowShowWallpaper">true

Now Search

[B]"ime[/B]

Wherever you find items starting with-

"ime

Add this item below at the end of that items-

"windowShowWallpaper">false

For example-

        @style/Animation.InputMethod
        @drawable/input_method_fullscreen_background
        @anim/input_method_extract_enter
        @anim/input_method_extract_exit
        [COLOR="Blue"]"windowShowWallpaper">false[/COLOR]

You added that blue item.

Save it.

Now go to res/drawable-nodpi folder and change background_holo_dark.png and tw_background_holo_dark to your any desired transparent image of size 480x800 px (hdpi - devices)

After this recompile framework-res.apk

Thats it :good:
