Hi All,
First of all Apologies if my question is dumb.
I am using Samsung galaxy 3 (ROM: Kyrillos v9.3). Awesome ROM.
My question is how to change the wallpaper for the SGS II unlock screen?
I tried searching the forum for answers but was in vain.
Could somebody atleast let me know if this is possible.
Thanks a lot for your time and help.
Can somebody please help me out..

you'll have to use comp for that, mate....you can use root explorer to put framework to system though....but not for changing backgrounds or any of png's in framework-res....

i just did it again,this is the way...
extract the all the drawable-ldpi folder and look at the last pic.tha t is the one you want to replace.then put it back to the .apk!
dont do it via adb or while the .apk is in a .zip
it has to be just framework-res.apk in the desktop

no need to zip or anything
just put it back like you would in any other folder.
just:
1 open apk with 7zip
2 replace the wallpaper
3 make sure you did it (close the 7zip window and check the wallpaper again
4 close the window and push the apk to the phone

You dont need to extract bootanimation.zip, just call another animation bootanimation.zip and copy it into system/media and overwrite original, bingo you have a new start up animation.

nah that dnt work dude lol
WHY do you want to edit /system/bin/bootanimation? It's an executable. Typically, you change it by getting and modifying the source code and recompiling it. A harder way would be to open it in a hex editor and modify the binary code directly.
Is there something you want to accomplish that can't be done simply by editing bootanimation.zip?
i know is been days on this...but i was wonder the same LoL .... "how to open this file....." but for Droid X use
Any luck? Are you also trying to enable sound to gingerbread?
you can run that system/bin one using fxexplorer.
i have a problem here, i deleted that one and i dont know how to get it back.
root/system/bin/bootanimation
hi i have deleted my bootanimation file on root/system/bin/bootanimation and theres no more boot animation appearing on every boot of my phone who knows this?

Wrong answer...
You could be right, but no...
That are not the default themes...
I think you should drag and drop the files from your theme into the framework file and compile and sign. That should do it.
Or do you mean a theme enabled by default but not default theme?

Try wipe cache and dalvik, and sign correctly. I admit that it is strange.

Edit: did you sign, compile?

Hi,
check for what exactly ?
there is nothing special .. as I said .. if I flash the ROM and the theme separately then every thing is ok ...
all I did was replace the files in the zip..and then I get stucj at bootanimation.
I didn't sign or compile...
I have a theory : the SystemUI has a battery percentage and the apk has new files in it... could it be the problem ?

First: to clarify;
you have a couple APKs for your Tab.
You place them in a flashable zip, flash, bootblock
you have a ROM for your Tab,
you grab the .zip, and replace the theme APKs, flash, and it works?
THat is really strange...
Hi,
thanks for answering me mDroidd ...
I found the problem.. it is the SystemUI.apk
I copied all the theme files to my ROM zip except that file and the device boot ok.
why does this file need to be flashed in a separate zip ?
is there another way ?

Maybe it had something to do with permissions our something?
If you override the systemui manually, does it work? Can your send me you're updater script?
Greets!
If i change a .apk file to .zip then change the icons and change it back to .apk will it work with the new icons??
lets say i do it with whatsapp....or it will brick my phone?
It should work,
You could also just open the .apk in 7zip or winrar or something like that and change the pngs inside, I think this is easier and safer
try it out and let us know what is the outcome...........

If you only switch the pngs you are fine for sure no need to sign
to change png you don't have to rename to .zip and extract you can just open with a program like 7z and replace them

select anything from there but you wont be able to flash it...... just make modifications upload both files and the download the .zip files and then extract the system.apk and resource file from the zip copy to sdcard and the use any root explorer to xopy both these files to their default location and then set permissions......
make sure to backup both the original files.......
One more thing just copy both the files you have extracted to system folder first then change permissions to rw-r--r-- and the move to app and framework folder respectively......

Here is modded systemui.apk
(Changes are Network Signal Color+in notification panel setting icon changed+internet icon converted to 3g icon+changed battery icon+toggle icons changed)
Note:- Before flashing ensure you have root access & you have deodex stock rom....
Method:-
Download attached systemui.apk to root of ur ext sd.
Download root explorer
Now open root explorer.
in root go to the system/app/ here find the systemui.apk n rename it to asystemui.apk (before renaming check you have given read write permission)
now click on other tab and copy that downloaded systemui.apk and paste here (before pasting check you have given read write permission)
now move asystemui.apk from system/app/here and paste in ext sd for backup
restart your phone...

/system/apps need only the permissions r--r--r

go to cwm recovery and do a wipe dalvik-cache and wipe cache.....
