Root explorer or some other file manager with root access.

My messaging app just entirely disappeared. pasted it in system/app and it won't work :/ also tried rebooting

Did you set the permissions to match the rest of your system apps?

Long press on the mms.apk and press permissions then set it so that all 3 are checked for read, only user is checked for write and all are left unchecked for execute.

I don't have that option on long press. only properties.

Permissions is right above properties.

grab GoSMS from the market. It's free and works great.
I use the dark theme with list style conversation. Black backgrounds. Looks close to what I came from on 2.1.

So essentially with this app you can change the icons on your toolbar, settings bar, etc.. which folder are the png's in? Been looking into system/framework/framework-res/res

Your on the right track, just a couple more.
System/framework/framework_res/drawable_MDPI
But for some like wifi strength or signal and the three on the left, those are in the SystemUI.apk like this
system/app/systemui.apk
After finishing systemui you will get constant f/C's, I just powered off and back on. That happened on the phone too and had to do battery pulls when I did it on the phone, while the force close pop up is up just hold down the power button and it will ask if you want to shut down, click yes and it will power down and should power up normally.

The image is very small, can't see the mods.
Anyone know where to find some good png's? to change some of the icons on the tab.
Like the back, home, applications icons.
I can see how easily you can change them in app/systemui,
just need images to change them with.

I went to XOOM theme forum and found a couple themes there to take the images from.

Thanks, yea they have alot of themes. Just took the images & placed them on my internal SD card, easy to switch out with ninjamorph can't seem to find the "halo" on the lock screen though so I can edit. Know which directory it's in?

Either at the very bottom of framework_res/res/drawable_mdpi for the Acer, and drawable_extra-large_mdpi for the XOOM

Icons wont change
Hey guys,
weird question. I'm running a Gingerbread mod and I updated the Wifi and Signal icons in SystemUI.apk, rebooted into recovery and copied over via ADB so nothing was in use by the system.
Now when I boot up, I get regular icons. I assumed it was something to do with the xml files, though when I open these, they're not exactly human readable.
Any ideas?

Try setting margins to NONE and changing the grid size just note what the grid default settings are if you change them you might lose some shortcuts or widgets they will be there they will be moved to where you can't see them.... On Apex launcher I have mine set to 6x8 portrait and landscape but I just always use landscape. In portrait 6x8 does look a little stretched. try like 5x7 or 4x6 or 5x5 whatever works for you.

Nova Settings>Desktop>Scroll Effect>Card Stack.

Transparency issues

Has anyone else has trouble changing the wallpaper and then having the status bar and the soft keys lose their transparency?
Or better yet, has anyone been successful in changing their wallpaper and keeping they're transparency settings? I'm having trouble pinpointing the cause, because it doesn't always happen right away...
Hopefully someone can point me in the right direction. Thanks!

only pre loaded LG wallpapers allow for the transparency

And transparency doesn't work with Apex, etc. (along with some other things which Apex does not get right.)

Yeah I solved part of the problem, I think.. Because even the preloaded ones were having issues. I had a wallpaper app (great wallpapers, just doesn't seem compatible) that seemed to mess everything up with the build prop I suppose. I love how expansive the screen looks - so I rather just choose from the preloaded ones and still have the transparency on the top and bottom.
By the way, I have the T-Mobile one (got it online). I also downloaded the Verizon wallpapers and they work fine.

i wonder what the differences are between the phones for preloaded wallpapers. I have verizon but i wonder if others have different ones...

Ok, that s***s right. This feature is borrowed from the S4's i guess. I like it all transparent too. I don't have the phone yet but if your phone is rooted using file explorer go to system-->customize-->resource there you should see the stock wallpapers. Try replacing one of the wallpaers with yours and see if that keeps the transparency. Not sure about the process but give it try if you like.

Try searching under system-->customize-->resource using es file explorer. If they are not there simply search for the stock wallpaper names and look up their properties for the location.

There is no customize in system, and i've looked about everywhere else.

Yeah, I think I'm getting more into the bottom of this. For starters, the main reason I had the issue before was due to the wallpaper app. Using the native wallpaper adjuster, I've been able to at least keep the transparency when using stock wallpapers (from other models, like I mentioned). Additionally, I just noticed that it will also keep the transparency if you use a photo taken with the camera.
After I deleted the wallpaper app though it's been working better.

Nahh.. Just kidding. Setting my own photos keeps my transparency for the soft keys (arguably the most important part, since it's the larger of the two), but leaves the transparency of the status bar at about 50%.
I can live with that. I'm guessing that with root and a decent ROM this "bug" could be taken care of. Thanks with the help this far though.

Ok now i downloaded the stock wallpapers from the theme section and looked up for their names. In the picture below look for the stock image names. Try searching one of the names using softwares like "ES File explorer". It should locate the wallpaper, if it does look for the properties.
Let me know if it works.

Here is a little trick I ran across. The lock screen wallpaper inherits the transparency attributes from the main screen. So if I put my own pic on lock screen, it will have transparency if home page is transparent. There may be more to it, but that is all I have seen to date.

Nexus 5 stockish look

The kitkat easter egg is actually just a logo, so I took it and did a quick and dirty cut and paste to create these. Kept them in PNG format, so no image quality is lost in the process.
Don't know if anyone will fancy the black version, but it may work for AMOLED screens. For other colors just use the Gallery's editor to change the hue.
Note: They look best if you use Google Launcher to set the wallpaper in portrait mode. Also Nova Launcher have the ability to set wallpapers in portrait mode.
The 'square' version is for pre-KitKat devices, which tends to crop the image as a square.
