in 4.3 you could just replace the images inside the systemui.apk.
in 4.4 ,at least the battery is no more an image, its code. dont know for the toggles, i´m still on 4.3.
if you have root, make a copy of your systemui.apk, extract it with winrar, 7zip or whatever, navigate to \res\drawable-xxhdpi.
you find the icons there, they can easily be replaced and repacked.
after that, i just overwrite the old systemui.apk and reboot immediately.
if you dont want to do it while the system is running, you can do it from custom recovery(filemanager) or create a flashable zip.
there may be an easier way to change those icons, i dont know.

If you want to change the colors or change the size, dividers, and shape (roundish to squarish) you can do that with Wanam in Xposed.

[Q] reboot option in power menu

hello i5800 users
i was looking for ways to add a reboot option in the power menu but none seem compatible with i5800. AFAIK it is done by installing andoid.policy.jar but how can i do it for i5800? any ideas?
p.s. something like "Hot Reboot" would also be very useful.
thanks in advance
If you have a rooted phone then you can use switch pro widget to reboot. Another free alternate is to use widgetsoid2.x
Just add widget to reboot.

my point was i don't want no widgets. i just want to have an option for reboot when i press the power button
Just use AnReboot from the Market, giving you the option to boot into Recovery Mode,as well.
Sent from my GT-I5801 using XDA App
i just use the terminal, su reboot. or su reboot download or whatever kinda reboot i need

Its not about the ROM, I think it can be done by modifying some .jar files or some .xml files.

You can't edit the .jar or XML files without to deodex the rom, and it seems like nobody did that yet...

I just read yesterday what's the matter with "deodexed". Am I right it's about to geht the .odex files back to .jar files? How can that be done?
Can this be done with the "xUltimate"-Tool? I read this was working on the Galaxy Spica...

No, you haven't got me..... i said...the setting.apk is completed now....
So make a flashable zip, put the setting.apk inside the zip, goto recovery, & flash it,...thats all....
& if you dont know how to make a flashable zip...then just skip the process of making flashable zip...take the
completed setting.apk goto system/app remove the previous setting.apk from there put the new one ,change permission.reboot.

Changing S pen hover Icon on 4.1.2 firmware

I found circle shaped hover icon on 4.1.2 really annoying for drawing purpose.
to change the icon go to
system\framework
copy framework-res.apk to your computer
open it using unzip program
replace
\res\drawable-mdpi\tw_pointer_spot_hovering_spen.png
with icon you want. (in my case I made copy of it and edited using photoshop)
I did not unzip the apk. I dragged new file onto unzip program and replaced the png file.
copy the file back to system\framework using root explorer and replaced it.
it worked without problem for me but make backup just to be safe
Nice find. pretty cool
Should of post a pic of what new icon looks like!

SWEET dude! It works! Thanks alot. I followed your instructions exactly. I used winrar to get to the png.
Maybe someone could make a bunch of cursors and an app that lets you interchange them easily?
I cant find drawable-mdpi\
i cant find drawable-mdpi\ please help
Still works!
I did a TON of research on this, and was nervous about flashing, modding system files, etc. Running stock rooted 4.3 Verizon Note 2. Just wanted to let people know this still works! Thanks for the instruction!

if you haven't "Patched the app" with any tool theres no need to remove odex files.
only time i use "patch app is to remove ads because i really think ads are worst thing that can be in a app"
but make sure you delete something on your sdcard (not necessary file) sometimes it can be to little storage dependin on the app requirements

is that specific app you wanted to install patched (from an earlier version) if so go to /data/app/ and look for the app and it will most likely have a .odex file in it,
since i hope this isn't for "piracy" i'm helping you.

and by in it i mean
/data/app/com.yourapphere.apk
/data/app/com.yourapphere.odex
Hope that helps to solve your problem
Working
BTW why does /system/app/ have odex files? And whats the difference between odex and apk files?
Sorry I'm still kind of a noob :E

Click to collapse
system/app/ has odex files in it because its standard in stock firmwares released by samsung
the difference is that all necesarry data lies in .odex files (in system/app/)
but it can be Deodexed but it will be slightly slower (not much) but as it needs to read the data inside the apk instead of odex file
dont delete any odex file in system app as it will cause the app to crash

Once you have extracted it you can just load it into a working folder in kitchen or do what you like with it
