Decompile Settings.apk. Go to res/layouts/. Here, one of the XMLs represent the 'about phone' screen. Open it. One of the "TextViews" will be the author's name and you can edit it.

In the XML file, it's like this under a particular TextView:-
android:text="@string/xxx"

So you can either find the string in strings.xml knowing its name and edit it (your way) or you can directly write the desired text between the ".."

No sure if I would comfortable with uploading a file called logs.db. does anyone know what it actually is and what info it logs?
Maybe someone with some knowledge with the file in question will be happy to upload it.
Sorry does not want to extract for some reason.

It contains all SMS and call log history, inc names and numbers! This is the history you see when viewing a contact. Definitely not something most people would be willing to give a stranger on the forum!

[Q] How to edit rom details other than in Build.prop

For an example In Hyper Ion, Creeds rom, There are some additional Rom infos (Like Developer, Code Name etc..) and well, those details are not found in build.prop.
So how do they do it? Is it xml editing? How can I do it?
It's on the setting.apk, replace it with the stock will remove the info of ROM Maker or etc
Sent from my GT-S5360 using xda premium
As far as i think, it is XML editing. Decompile the settings.apk using apktool (if you don't know how to, then check my sig). In res/layouts, one of the xmls will be the screen for that 'about phone'. There you'll be able to add more TextViews, i.e. more texts to display.

Search in google for Notepad++. It's a great software which makes XML editing a breeze.

[Q] Theme Incoming call screen on Galaxy Y?

Is there a way to choose/make/browse themes [FULL] only for incoming call screens? Especially for Samsung Galaxy Y, the stock answering call is really bad.
Is it possible to download / theme the incoming call screen via Metamorph? And where to find such themes for Samsung Galaxy Y?
I already know about some third-party apps on Play store such as Ultimate Call Screen HD, but they don't do what I need.
p.s. I'm NOT looking either for ROMs with different incoming call screens (I'm here for a simple way to theme the incoming call screens for android)

I decompiled Phone.apk
there are many xml files and png images, I'm looking for the images that targets "specifically" the incoming call screen items such as the background, frames, sliders. What are the png/xml file names to tweak those specific things

Wow... I couldn't find the background image for the incoming call screen, neither the answering sliders.
Anyway, I found many Phone.apk online for different ROMs and different Android devices. Is it OK if I used any for my Galaxy Y?
I think ya, coz some of my system app is from custom rom n I am using stock rom just give it a try, is it work or not. N do a backup before changing the app

I downloaded several Phone.apk(s) from the net, but every time I try to install one it asks me that "this is a system app, do you want to replace" and say yes but then it says (Application not installed)
What could be wrong? and how to fix it?
I think you should flash via cwm. Well, i am a beginner but even i changed my default one. But pls confirm with senior members. I think you have to flash it

I tried flashing the flashable APK but with no success, it displayed "installation aborted" at the end.
Yes I agree with koradiavatsal, u should flash through cwm, or try this, copy the file (Phone.apk) to /system n set permission to rw-r--r-- n then move n replace it to /system/app, then reboot. If this not succesfull the one way is flash it through cwm

Before I continue to to the replacement inside the system/app directory...
Is it ok to replace even if the Phone.apk is made for ICS or JB? I of course use GB.

How to set a current theme --Build.prop--

Hey guys I've just re edited the thread, feels like it's already dead but still edited
This is what Wasimk32 himself told me to do
Just add this in the current build.prop file
1. open up the ROM zip file
2. go to system
3. open up build.prop
add this onto your build.prop
persist.sys.themeId='theme name"
persist.sys.themePackageName="theme package name"
What's the theme name?
Theme package name?
Theme package name can be found when it's been extracted, go to the xml and look for the package name, simply just copy & paste... simple? isn't it? ok -.-
Thanks Wasim!
