You would have to change image in the framework res apk no dpi folder but this will change the background system wide

[Q} What 'Launcher' is this?

I'm on stock ROM with tablet mode enabled (changed DPI in build.prop) and this is my home screen. I really like the app launcher being the discrete little icon in the top corner but I have no idea how to change settings to get that there on another ROM. I've loaded several different ROMs but always end up restoring my backup just for that launcher!
Can anybody tell me what that is and how to configure it on other ROMs?
That's the stock launcher in tablet mode.

I knew the answer would be simple. Thank you! So if I want that on another ROM I can just extract Launcher2.apk from this one and install elsewhere? Or do I need other files too?

Just put the other rom into tablet mode via dpi and it'll do it automatically. Or use paranoid android and select everything to be tablet without changing DPI.

I had tried that on Paranoid but was still left with the phone launcher. I'm going to play around a bit tonight though. I've got 3 or 4 ROMs downloaded and I'll see which one I can make work. Thanks again.

Yes.
Get the ROM, find for framework-res.apk, decompile it, grab the navbar pngs, transfer it to your phone, get an app called softkeyz from the themes and app section and apply it.
Wallpaper should be in framework-res too.

What will happen if I will replace the entire framework-res.apk ?
It will likely boot loop as many of the dependencies from the paranoid framework won't be in the other one

Here r some screenies..any help would be gladly appreciated..I hate eating up space on this stock navbar and mipop as well..dynamic navbar mod works but hate how it look likes..

Hi there,
I am running cm11 nightly and I was wandering what directory contains the images for the icons on the bottom bar? I know cm themes can change them but I would like to be able to change them manually.
Thanks

system ui apk, inside /system/app (or priv-app don't remember).
I know you can change using soft key z (free on xda), don't know if you can use custom, you may look at it
