Little homemade icon pack - GT540 Optimus Themes and Apps

Hi everyone! This is my first post so don't doubt to tell me anything i do wrong...
I just finished a little icon pack for my LG GT540, and i'd like to share it with you. I've taken a little bit of here and a little bit of there to customize my launcher app shortcuts, hope you like them.
If anyone would like to give me any tips or recommendations about them i'll be pleased.
Thanx for this amazing forum!

Two more icons: XDA app and tether. Hope you like them. Still waiting for opinions.

I just learned how to make screen captures of my cell! And of course I learned on this forum...thanks guys! Here are some caps of my GT540 with my icons, hope you like them. And if anyone could tell me if the Bobclock widget is available in spanish it would be great.
PS: Could anyone tell me if there is any EASY way to turn the buttons of the Network switcher widget into red? that would be awesome...

Thanks for your answer, but you have to be a little bit more specific. Please explain me how to do that or link me to a post where that stuff is explained, thanks again.

After some hours reading threads, fighting against png's, adding system paths, and signing apk's (never did any of these before...), i got to change my widget icons!!!i'm not sure how it got to work, but it works!
My last quest would be to change the widget font color, anyone can help with that?
PD: pashinator thanks again for your short but helpful post, the word "res" helped me find a thread where i learned where the icons are!
PD2: If anyone want to know how i did any of the steps, just ask.

I change my icons all the time so if you need just pm me and I will guide you fully.

[Theme][Port]Green Lantern Theme

So I found this theme on the Evo thread by Abu and I really would like to use this theme. I am pretty new to this whole thing and was wondering if that is possible to get on the vibrant. here is the theme.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=842460
If anyone could help or point me in the right direction I would much appreciate it. Thank You!
Also, the one on the evo is used with the cyanogen mod, does this matter or is it possible to make it work with Nero?
That's tight, would like to see this happen too
Looking at the theme, its a flashable zip that replaces the framework-res.apk, and several system apk with themed ones. Theoretically the drawables in the framework-res.apk could be used on the vibrant, but I don't think the xml's and the system apps would work. If you're just looking for the status bar being modded, that could easily be made into a metamorph. But all the other stuff would take more time and effort.

The only thing I know is yo modify your SystemUI.apk with apk manager . I don't know the exact steps .
Sent from my Ultima Weapon using XDA App
Yup, you'll have to find and replace the image files. Contact Seilent or search for the tutorial in section "Android Themes"
OK thnx you guys. Gonna do some more searching.
You have to do this manually. Open your systemui.apk with winrar. Open drawable-mdpi and you will find your current pulldown menu buttons. Just replace these files with what you like and also make sure that file names match.
Hey SGAce, i perfectly didnt understand your question. Do you just want to change the icons pngs or do you want to change their functions itself? Changing icons png has been expained before by other users but if you want to change functions of these, its a tedious job with editing xmls and resources and etc. It is a lot better to wait for the nightlies of CM7 lol
THNX y'all,
i did it, i managed to change the button png's. Afterall it was a STUPID and unnesessary question, coz i did this with a few other apk's before
Sorry, this thread can be closed.
Cheers.
just use 7-zip

(Q)How to change status bar icon colors

Ive been searching for the better part of this morning on how to change the status bar icons. My battery is red right now but i want to change the 3g/4g icon, signal bars and whatever else i can to match. Ive been able to find the files i need to edit but thats where im stuck. I downloaded gimp and cant really figure out how to change the colors. Is there another program i can use to edit them? Or can someone just help me any help would be greatly appreciated.
Try using the UOT Kitchen.
http://uot.dakra.lt/
Thanks I've tried that but can't get the 3g icon and wifi to change. Are you able to?
Haven't done it with the Kitchen, but I did use this guide to change my status bar icons.
Thanks a lot for that I just read over it and it doesnt seem hard at all. The problem im having now is finding an icon pack with all the signal bars and wifi bars, etc

If you like something from the UOT kitchen, just screenshot the demo icons, resize and format them accordingly.
I didn't even think of that. Thanks a lot you just made my day

if you still need a hand, shoot me a pm and ill give you directions on how to do it with gimp, its actually rather easy, although there are quite a few icons to change
Thanks that would be great I sent you a pm but it's not showing in my sent box. If you can pm me maybe that will work. Thanks for being willing to help

[Q] Pixely wifi calling icon in status bar! Possible to theme?

Short and simple, my WiFi calling icon up there in my status bar is much more pixely than that of any other device I've seen. Is it possible to theme this, and if so, is anyone up for the task? I'm not a total noob, but I'm no developer. thanks !

ROM Toolbox app in the market by jrummy16 has an icon changing feature... You can also try UOT kitchen. Are you rooted? Can you post a screenshot of your status bar?

Here's a screenshot. It isn't crazy bad, but I've compared to 3 or 4 other devices and just thought maybe there was a way to fix this little annoyance.
And yes, I am rooted. I'm pretty good with all this root stuff, but I just didn't know quite enough to fix this

Yeah that's the ics WiFi icon it looks like. You could change the theme or skin or you could go to uot kitchen to fix it or make your own.
Sent from my HTC_Amaze_4G using xda premium
That uot kitchen looks pretty intriguing, but it also looks a bit complicated. Would it be too much trouble to maybe fill me in on how I would go about changing the wifi calling icon using uot kitchen? Thanks
It's pretty self explanatory if u go to the website. I'm not at my pc now so can't walk you through it... I'm sure u could search though and find a tutorial somewhere... Sorry

You're using a third party app to take screen shots? You know the phone comes pre-equipped with that function? Power + Home
Well thanks anyways glacierguy. I will try to learn up on the uot kitchen. And Double0EK, I actually had recently learned that the amaze had built in screen shot feature, and I've used it, but ever since I flashed Xboarder's Rom Bulletproof, it hasn't worked.
Oh..ok
