[Q] Possible to change the Orange Selection Colour in Stock builds

Hi Guys,
Is it possible to change the colour of the selection colour in Stock Android (I think it's already Green in Sense Roms)? But in Stock it's Orange, I want to know if there's a way to change it to Green?
I'm guessing i just need to alter a colour code in some xml file somewhere but absolutely no idea where to start looking!
Cheers
Paul

Its in the framework-res.apk in the /system/framework folder. There are png files that you need to edit.
Use APK Manager 4.9 to decompile the file, then edit with Photoshop and compile the file again.
Make a flashable CWM zip file and flash it.
Search on the board for the how-to's.

[Q] Edit systemui.apk for battery % sense 3.5

am creating my own battery % for sense 3.5 roms. I have been able to update the framework-res.apk file with the necessary images and xml files.
I am trying to learn how to edit the systemui.apk file, but I dont know what the dependencies are.
Could anybody give me a hand?

Any ideas on how to mod the systemui.apk file?

Maybe for HTC roms it is com.htc.resources.apk?
Edit: Or rosie?

The battery mods I have seen for sense roms come with a systemui.apk and the framework-res.apk file. If I try to mod the framework-res.apk file on its own like I have done for osap roms it does not work, but if I add the systemui.apk file the battery works.
The problem is you have to use the systemui.apk file from that rom. If you try to use one from another rom I get a lot of system process not responding errorrs. I am just not sure what is modified on the system.apk file.

Just a suggestion: upload needed files to UOT Kitchen and just make a battery mod. Then U can compare your orig. files with these you've downloaded from UOT.
Maybe this will help you.

Deodex your rom
Copy SystemUI.apk to your pc
Rename to SystemUI.zip
extract contents to a folder
goto res/drawable-ldpi
Replace any image except images ending In .9
Make sure file names remain the same
rezip all the files
change name of zip to SystemUI.apk (note you will have to enable file extensions in folder options in control panel to change zip to apk)
put in a flashable zip and flash with system mounted
note this method is only for changing png images
to edit any other files like xml you must decompile with apktool

Okay....can u tell me how to deodex our rom...
sorry to give u trouble... but m a noob here...

There is a guide in the general section about deodexing stock roms.Just use the search button.

Use kitchen
flash fresh stock rom and root
install terminal
use terminal to pull all system files into a tar file
load tar file into a working folder in kitchen
use kitchen to deodex - change api to level 10 first
build the rom and flash it
There are other methods but that one is simple

Just for changing stat icons.... NO NEED TO DEODEX ...Even you can make it with just your cell phone,without the help of a COMPUTER...
Click bellow to see-
First you need "Zarchiver" and "Root Explorer" and rooted sgy duos ...
Then copy your Systemui.apk to your sd card and extract just the "drawable-ldpi" from there with Root explorer,then go to the extracted folder and change the stat icons which you want....But remember don't change the name of the icons which you have changed,rename your custom icons as stock sys ui icon names...when everything done,then open "Zarchiver" and go to sdcard's sysui.apk,just click to it and view,don't extract.After this from there delete the drawable-ldpi folder and push your customised "drawable-ldpi" folder in the place of deleted "drawable-ldpi" folder,But dont replace the folders,first delete one then add other one...
All done now just open root explorer and move the customised syssui to system/app folder and replace with original...and change the permission to rw--r--r..REBOOT now..
