Question about framework-res .apk

Hi.
When replacing framework-res .apk with another one,
does the framework has to be compiled from the same
rom or can i use a framework-res .apk from another rom?
Also what do i have to edit to be able to change the
settings?
Like adding colour or making it look like iphone or ICS.
Thanks

The Framework-res.apk has to be compiled from your actually ROM, cause this have the entire UI System and features from the ROM.
If you want to costumize the color, forms and styles, you have to descompile "SystmeUI.apk" with the framework-res.apk from the same ROM. I Guess.

[HOW-TO][GUIDE] Set CM7 Theme as Default when cooking ROMs [With Screenshots]

This is a how-to guide one how to set a theme chooser theme as default. I see a lot of users asking for it, so I decide to make a guide.
Download Theme Chooser Theme
Download apk manager from here or here and extract it to C:\apk-manager\
Place your theme apk in place-apk-here-for-modding folder
Open Script.bat (Screenshot)
Choose Option 22 - Select Project
Select your theme
Choose option 9 - Decompile Apk
Go to Projects
Open AndroidManifest.xml
Copy the pluto:themeID and package (Screenshot)
Open Build.prop and scroll down to the end
There will be two lines like: persist.sys.themeId=Cyanbread and persist.sys.themePackageName=com.tmobile.theme.Cyanbread (Screenshot)
Change them to match your theme
Now copy the theme apk to /data/app/ or /system/app/ of the ROM you are cooking or the theme won't work

Me too I don't want post another thread so I use this one..
How do you change the default theme in CyangenMod 10 I don't think this work work with it cos the 2 line in the build.prop are not there no more,
So If a dev that has changed the theme in CM10 can post about it it would be great..
Thanks for reading..

according to guys in ICS thread, it can be done by uploading the framework-res.apk and SystemUI.apk from ROM files...?
I managed to flash theme but only font was changed (no battery changed):crying:

With all the data2sd, aps2sd etc implementation on Desire for ICS, are you sure that flashing those apk files on /system/framework or /system/app is the right path for it? You may need to manually put it in there.

It is confirmed for now that UOT doesn't work with ics. I wasted half an hour trying that on an Galaxy Ace typical no a2sd rom.

mattmanwrx provided me with a modded framework-res.apk that worked but only managed to change my font:crying:
I noticed that the themed battery showed in my notifications when my USB cable was connected

Yh its like that with INT2SD, in UOT you have to change the path to "sd-ext/apps_s" and "sd-ext/framework_s"

Blake Blader, i need to now is- if i port a rom from Tab and tab rom status bar (Systemui.apk) is below the screen (like in tab and if i based it to JB or custom roms... will it work without changing any build.prop ?
eg:- Changing Systemui.apk
Settings.apk from - Port- CM9 JB
-base- My JB
Will it Work Fine or else i have to change any other apk or scripts?

I think i will not work. 1. You cant port from a tab because of screen resolution difference (and i assume that tab have cpu armv7) so you cant port from it. 2. I think you will have to edit xml files to achieve bottom status bar. And its not on build prop (system UI of frame work i guess)

Ya....

how to change the system ui ?
i want cyanogenmod 7 ui for stock rom

if you are not sure what you are doing or dont have theme skills - best thing for you to do is run your systemui and framework through uot kitchen to theme it how you like
