So I came across this thread a week or more back and implemented it in my ICS rom, but I wasn't happy with it(various reasons but mostly because it is gesture based). So I abandoned it. Fast forward a couple days, jumping from project to project, idea to idea and I somehow ended up porting the latest ICS version of ShenduOS. Then boom, the settings app was *almost* exactly what I wanted. It featured a more natural swiping from tab to tab, similar to most launchers.
So I stripped the code for the tabs from the shendu settings app, stripped that code of any Shendu specific code and re-coded portions of the smali code so I could add it to the settings app of the ICS rom I use as my daily driver. What I ended up with is what seems to be something thats pretty generic and not rom specific.
So now I share with you what *should* work with any ICS+ rom. This guide will be very similar to the one I linked to above.
THIS SHOULD ALSO WORK ON OTHER DEVICES BUT I CANNOT TEST TO BE SURE
Prerequisites:
-experience decompiling/recompiling apk's with APKTool
-experience signing apks
-experience editing/theming apks
I will not go into any of the above any more then just saying when to preform certain actions......
GUIDE:
1. First you will need to decompile the Settings.apk from your ROM with apktool
2. Download the Settings.zip I attached to this post
3. Unzip the Settings.zip and copy the 'res' and 'smali' folders to your decompiled Settings.apk folder(merge with existing folders of the same names)
4. Open 'res/values/strings.xml' from the decompiled settings apk in your favorite text editor and add the following to the end of the list of strings...
Code:
<string name="personalized_setting">Personal</string>
<string name="device_setting">System</string>
<string name="app_setting">Applications</string>
5. Open 'res/values/ids.xml' from the decompiled settings apk in your favorite text editor and add the following to the end of the list of ID's
Code:
<item type="id" name="linearLayout1">false</item>
<item type="id" name="personalized_tab">false</item>
<item type="id" name="device_tab">false</item>
<item type="id" name="app_tab">false</item>
<item type="id" name="cursor">false</item>
<item type="id" name="vPager">false</item>
6.Now you must recompile the settings.apk. This is because APKtool will give resource ID's to certain resources we added during this process, we need these generated ID's in the following steps because the code access's some resources directly by the ID's.
7. Decompile the Newly recompiled APK again, from here on out I will assume your editing this newly recompiled/decompiled version.
8. With this step it is very easy to make a typo, so please make sure you are paying Extra attention to details during this step.
-Open up 'res/values/public.xml' and you will find lines similar to the following.
Code:
<public type="id" name="[COLOR="Red"]vPager[/COLOR]" id="[U]0x7f08022a[/U]" />
-Below I will give you a list of .smali file names, each file is located in the 'smali/com/android/settings/' folder of your decompiled settings.apk
- Each file name will be followed by a line similar to above, you need to search the smali files for the ID(underlined in the example above)
- Then search the public.xml I told you to open above for the name for each line(red in example above)
- Replace the ID in the smali file with the one you located in the public.xml
Code:
!--MainSettings.smali--!
<public type="id" name="vPager" id="0x7f08022a" />
<public type="id" name="cursor" id="0x7f080229" />
<public type="id" name="app_tab" id="0x7f080168" />
<public type="id" name="device_tab" id="0x7f080228" />
<public type="id" name="personalized_tab" id="0x7f080227" />
<public type="layout" name="mainsetting" id="0x7f040090" />
!--DeviceSettings.smali--!
<public type="xml" name="device_settings_headers" id="0x7f050051" />
!--AppSettings.smali--!
<public type="xml" name="app_settings_headers" id="0x7f050052" />
!--PersonalSettings.smali--!
<public type="xml" name="personal_settings_headers" id="0x7f050053" />
9. Now open up the 'AndroidManifest.xml' of your decompiled settings.apk in a text editor.
-Find a section similar to the below....
Code:
<activity android:label="@string/settings_label_launcher" android:name="Settings" android:taskAffinity="com.android.settings" android:clearTaskOnLaunch="true" android:launchMode="singleTop">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<action android:name="android.settings.SETTINGS" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
The important parts you are looking for are 'name="Settings" and the 'android.intent.category.LAUNCHER' lines, there *should* only be a single section with these.
Change this section to the below:
Code:
<activity android:label="@string/settings_label_launcher" android:name="Settings">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
Directly above that section copy/paste the following code:
Code:
<activity android:name="MainSetting" android:theme="@android:style/Theme.NoTitleBar" android:taskAffinity="com.android.settings" android:launchMode="singleTask">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
<action android:name="android.settings.SETTINGS" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
<activity android:label="@string/settings_label_launcher" android:name="PersonalSettings" android:taskAffinity="com.android.settings" android:launchMode="singleTask">
<intent-filter>
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
<activity android:label="@string/settings_label_launcher" android:name="DeviceSettings" android:taskAffinity="com.android.settings" android:launchMode="singleTask">
<intent-filter>
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
<activity android:label="@string/settings_label_launcher" android:name="AppSettings" android:taskAffinity="com.android.settings" android:launchMode="singleTask">
<intent-filter>
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
10. You are now done with this round of modifications, its time to recompile the APK. Because this is a system app and we edited AndroidManifest.xml we must sign this recompiled Apk before pushing it to the system. You can try using any of the keys that come with whatever apk signing tool you use, but you will more then likely end up with a Settings.apk that wont show as being installed. To overcome this on ASOP roms I download and sign system apks with the platfrom keys from CyanogenMod's android_build github. If everything goes well and you push the new signed apk to the system, your settings app should now look similar to this when you open it.
11. What you have is 3 tabs with no settings. I left this for you to do, as each rom has its own specific settings options. Most ASOP roms store the main page of settings options in the 'res/xml/settings_headers.xml'. Copy/paste/reorganize each of these options into the 'app_settings_headers.xml', 'device_settings_headers.xml' and 'personal_settings_headers.xml' files which are also located in 'res/xml/'.
12. After all is said and done above, you *may* need to edit/theme the 'res/layout/mainsettings.xml' to suit your roms specific look.
NOTE:
If you are attempting this on a Non-ASOP Rom or are having trouble you may need to follow these additional instructions
And to finally end this, here are some screenshots where I added this feature to the settings.apk of our twistedmodICS rom by pwn.

Google for a guide about signing apks. Most tutorials will have you sign apks with test keys, I gave you a link in that sentence you quoted directly to the files I said you should use in signing instead.

HOW TO SIGN APKS/ZIPS
Note: Java needs to be installed for this to work
1. Download the signapk.zip file from my mediafire
http://www.mediafire.com/#8gjgusqbct8q2
2. Extract it and read the "usage.txt"
3. Download the .pk8 and .pem files that BigSplit linked to and copy those into the extracted "signapk" directory
4. Open a command prompt window in the "signapk" extracted directory (Shift+RightClick > Open command prompt here)
5. Run the command in the "usage.txt", substituting your downloaded ".pem" file and your downloaded ".pk8" file and the Settings.apk file in the appropriate places
Command should look something like this
Code:
java -jar signapk.jar downloaded-certificate-HERE.pem download-key-HERE.pk8 SettingsAppHere.apk Settings-signed.apk
The "settings-signed.apk" part can be changed to anything, thats just the signed output file
"SettingsAppHere.apk" is the Settings app you are modding

So you are on a stock firmware? If so, I would guess that the other packages are not signed with the same keys I linked to since its a stock ROM and not asop. The only thing you can do then is to attempt to re-sign every system apk/jar with a new signature(which I've never been successful at doing).
And the mainsetting will only show up in the public xml AFTER you compile it, then decompile it again. The only reason it wouldnt show up is if you are not placing the files i posted in the correct directories or not recompiling/decompiling when I said to.

i dont think adding superuser to settings is different from adding CPU option
both of them are same way
only different is name of package that can anybody find it in android-manifest
if this isn't true somebody must teach us how to add all of play store apps to settings in separate guides :laugh:
The guy atleast put in efforts to type n cared to share his knowledge
Respect the person for that mate!
And it is not a spam ...by any means...

I could make a shortcut for that, but you must follow this guide first, then the shortcut will be placed in System > Status bar > Change Transparency will open Statusbar Tweaks inside TweakBox Xposed Module
Can you make tutorial for tabbed settings?

*ScreenShots Are Available Within The Hidden Contents*
*How To Change This For WhatEver You Want*
*Here I Will Be Explaining How You Can Modify This Guide To Include Whatever You Want*
First In /res/xml/device_info_settings.xml *OPTIONAL*
Change The Codes In Red To What You Desire
Change The Code In Green To What You Desire As Well But Be Cautious About This As Most Things Will Use This
Code:
<PreferenceScreen android:title="@string/[COLOR="Red"]device_credit[/COLOR]" android:key="[COLOR="Red"]credits_info[/COLOR]" android:summary="@string[COLOR="red"]/device_credit_summary[/COLOR]">
<intent android:targetPackage="com.android.settings" android:action="android.intent.action.MAIN" android:targetClass="com.android.settings.deviceinfo[COLOR="Green"].Credits[/COLOR]" />
</PreferenceScreen>
_
Now In /res/values/Strings.xml *IMPORTANT*
Change The Codes In Red To What You Set In The Previous Step
Change The Codes In Green To Whatever You Want To Be Displayed
Code:
<string name="[COLOR="Red"]credits_activity_title[/COLOR]">[COLOR="green"]Credits[/COLOR]</string>
<string name="[COLOR="red"]device_credit[/COLOR]">[COLOR="green"]Credits[/COLOR]</string>
<string name="[COLOR="red"]device_credit_summary[/COLOR]"></string>
<string name="[COLOR="red"]credit_dev_header[/COLOR]">[COLOR="Green"]Developed By:[/COLOR]</string>

<string name="[COLOR="red"]credit_header[/COLOR]">[COLOR="green"]Thanks To:[/COLOR]</string>
<string name="[COLOR="red"]credit_name[/COLOR]">"[COLOR="green"]-Name Here \n
-Name Here \n
-Name Here \n
-Name Here \n
-Name Here \n
-Name Here[/COLOR]"</string>
_
Now In The Attached File *OPTIONAL*
Rename The Both Files In My Settings.apk
The Smali FIle Rename To What You Set In Step 1 (The One In Green)
Inside the smali file change all the occurences accordingly
in Public.xml to get the ID use the name of the renamed xml file
Now In Android Manifest
Change The Stuff In Red To What You Have Already Set
Code:
<activity android:label="@string/[COLOR="Red"]credits_activity_title[/COLOR]" android:name=".deviceinfo[COLOR="Red"].Credits[/COLOR]">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />

Hello buddies..
From the concept SHARING IS CARING, I am going to share some mods specifically on SecSettings.apk that I stumbled across and share it with you in one thread
Keep in mind that most of them are not mine but from the community so actual credits are to be given to the owners. So please let me know if you have any modding that I didn't mention
So let's start!!
Needed tools:
1) Apktool or others that do the job
2) Notepad++ program from here
3) The patience and a willing partner! sorry no link for that
I am not going to teach you how to use these programs because I am assuming that you already know how to use them if not then check their respective documentations!
You must deodex SecSettings.apk before proceeding.
A lot of works are done by various xda members, some are from other sites, some are mine. If you found the guide of your mod here and you haven't been credited, please PM.

Adding Custom image + Onclick Functionality
Credits to @iamareebjamal
Decomplie SecSettings.apk using Apktool
Download the SettingsSource.zip
Extract contents of SettingsSource.zip to respective folders in SecSettings.apk
Open res/xml/device_info_settings.xml
Add this just a line above the first Preference tag
Code:
<PreferenceCategory android:layout="@layout/areebisawesome" android:key="blah" android:title="" />
Now go to res/drawable
There, you'll see cosmic.png Change it to any png of size 320x200 You can change this size description in res/layout/areebisawesome.xml
N.B: Also we can use android:layout_width="fill_parent"so that if we add small resolution picture then it will automatically fill whole width

Add the blue code to the XML
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<ImageView android:layout_gravity="center" android:paddingBottom="6.0dip" [COLOR="Blue"]android:clickable="true"[/COLOR] android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="400.0px" [COLOR="blue"]android:src="@drawable/about"[/COLOR] android:scaleType="fitXY"
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" />
What I've Done ????
Added android:clickable="true" ------> to make our layout clickable
Added android:src="@drawable/about" ------> it is a xml not a picture/png...[it will replace our images on click ]
Create new file about.xml at drawable folder
Add this code to it
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<selector
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<item android:state_pressed="true" android:drawable="@drawable/about2" />
<item android:state_selected="true" android:drawable="@drawable/about2" />
<item android:drawable="@drawable/about1" />
</selector>
Now add about1.png as first unpressed picture
And about2.png as pressed picture...
Recomplie
Adding About ROM new information
Decompile SecSettings.apk
Open /res/xml/device_info_settings.xml
In device_info_settings.xml, go to the end and add these lines before </PreferenceScreen> line
Code:

You can add or remove fields in device_info_settings.xml and strings.xml as you like
Recompile
Integrating application
Decompile SecSettings.apk.
Decompile the program that you want to add to settings menu (in this example will take chainfire's SuperSU app)
Go to res\drawable-xhdpi folder and add icon for your program that you want to add (you can take it from decompiled program in res/mipmap-xhdpi.
Go to res\values folder and open strings.xml by NotePad++ and add these lines just before </resources> for your program
Code:
<string name="romaddons">ROM Addons</string>
<string name="superuser_text">Superuser</string>
Go to \res\xml folder and open settings_headers.xml by NotePad++ and add the blue lines
Code:
<header android:icon="@drawable/ic_settings_accessibility" android:id="@id/accessibility_settings" android:title="@string/accessibility_settings" android:fragment="com.android.settings.AccessibilitySettings" />
[COLOR="Blue"] <string name="romaddons">ROM Addons</string>
<header android:icon="@drawable/ic_settings_superuser" android:title="@string/superuser_text">
<intent android:targetPackage="eu.chainfire.supersu" android:action="android.intent.action.MAIN" android:targetClass="eu.chainfire.supersu.MainActivity" />
</header>[/COLOR]
<header android:icon="@drawable/ic_settings_development" android:id="@id/development_settings" android:title="@string/development_settings_title" android:fragment="com.android.settings.DevelopmentSettings" />
Then install the program you want to add on your phone
Extra step is to remove this line in AndroidManifest.xml in your decompiled SuperSU app so to disappear from the launcher
Code:
<category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
Adding other apps
Sample down here for learning
Code:
<header android:icon="@drawable/ic_settings_xxxx" android:title="@string/xxxx_text">
<intent android:targetPackage="" android:action="" android:targetClass="" />
</header>
"android:icon="@drawable/ic_settings_xxxx"" : name of icon you put in drawable-xhdpi folder if you want it to be empty the add this to drawable and empty_icon as the name of the icon
"android:title="@string/xxxx_text"" : name of string put for added program in strings.xml
"android:targetPackage=""" : package of wanted program inside its own AndroidManifest.xml
"android:action=""" : first action of wanted program inside its own AndroidManifest.xml
"android:targetClass=""" : class of the wanted package inside its own AndroidManifest.xml to start with in this case its .MainActivity

Setting up a custom settings tab
Credits to @Didact74
Download Smali.zip
Place it in smali/com/android/settings
Navigate to res/xml/settings_headers.xml
Add this line of code anywhere you want it
Code:
<header android:icon="@drawable/ic_settings_romcontrol" android:id="@id/new_tab" android:title="@string/rom_control" android:fragment="com.android.settings.NewTab" />
android:icon="@drawable/ic_settings_romcontrol = The icon you see in the tab and the location that icon is stored
android:id="@id/new_tab" = Android ID thats stored in res/values/ids
android:title="@string/rom_control" = The title the new tab is given located in res/values/strings
android:fragment="com.android.settings.NewTab" = points to the smali that controls this tab
Create your own icon.png (size 50 x 50) and drop it in res/drawable-xhdpi
Navigate to res/values/strings.xml & add this line of code before </resources>
Code:
<string name="rom_control">Rom Control</string>
<string name="rom_addons">Rom Addons</string>
Create an XML file with the name "new_tab.xml"
Navigate to res/values/ids.xml & add this line of code before </resources>
Code:
<item type="id" name="new_tab">false</item>
Example:
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<PreferenceScreen android:title="@string/rom_addons"
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:settings="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/com.android.settings">
<!-- Place your settings here -->
</PreferenceScreen>
You will need to add the necessary lines to res/strings found in the XML if would add any others
Do not worry about finding a unique ID for res/public just let the system generate one for you
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Recompile the decompile to generate ids in public.xml
Find this line in res/values/public.xml
Code:
<public type="xml" name="new_tab" id="0x7fxxxxxx" />
Take your unique id and change it in NewTab.smali from
Code:
const v1, [COLOR="Red"]0x7f070082[/COLOR]
To
Code:
const v1, [COLOR="Blue"]0x7fxxxxxx[/COLOR]
Then change
Code:
invoke-virtual {p0, v1}, Lcom/android/settings/[COLOR="Red"]didact/RomSettings[/COLOR];->addPreferencesFromResource(I)V
To
Code:
invoke-virtual {p0, v1}, Lcom/android/settings/[COLOR="Blue"]NewTab[/COLOR];->addPreferencesFromResource(I)V
Done :good:

Owner Profile in About Device
Credits to @Deckoz2302, @b16h22 and @nightwalker
Download the zip and extract it Owner_Profile_Mod.zip
Decompile SecSettings.apk
Go to res/values/ids.xml... add these:
Code:
<item type="id" name="image">false</item>
<item type="id" name="owner">false</item>
<item type="id" name="linear_layout">false</item>
<item type="id" name="profile_pic">false</item>
<item type="id" name="layout1">false</item>
<item type="id" name="change_picture_text">false</item>
<item type="id" name="photo_picker">false</item>
<item type="id" name="linear_layout1">false</item>
<item type="id" name="layout2">false</item>
<item type="id" name="name_field">false</item>
<item type="id" name="name_edit">false</item>
<item type="id" name="profile">false</item>
<item type="id" name="profile_name">false</item>
<item type="id" name="ic_qs_default_user">false</item>
Next go to res/values/strings.xml.. add these:
Code:
<string name="change_pic">Change profile picture</string>
<string name="profile_pic">SET PROFILE PICTURE</string>
<string name="profile_name">CHANGE PROFILE NAME</string>
Now find the files you extracted and put the com folder in correct directory..
Code:
SecSetting/smali/com/blac
Now put the files from the res folder in correct directories..
Code:
res/layout/lacourb.xml
res/layout/profile_info.xml
res/drawable-hdpi/ (is where the png files go)
res/drawables/done.xml
res/drawable/pick_profile_picture.xml
Forgot to include it so add ic_qs_default_user to res/drawable/xhdpi
Now go to where you want to have the option of changing the Profile Picture and Name. Maybe display_settings.xml it doesn't matter so put it where you want it.
Code:
<PreferenceScreen android:title="Owner Profile Picture">
<intent android:targetPackage="com.android.settings" android:action="android.intent.action.MAIN" android:targetClass="com.blac.Profile" />
</PreferenceScreen>
XML's will vary too depending on which one you pick so you need adjust the tag in the beginning of the line and the end of line depending on what it is calling. Example: <PreferenceScreen></PreferenceScreen> OR <headers></headers> so visualize the layout of the xml
Now go to res/xml/device_info_settings.xml and add:
Code:
<PreferenceCategory android:title="Device Info" />
<PreferenceScreen android:fragment="[COLOR="Orange"]com.android.settings.deckoz.RomControl.General[/COLOR]" android:focusable="false" android:layout="@layout/lacourb" android:key="profile_pic" />
Pay special attention to the line in ORANGE. This line defines where it takes you when the image is clicked when in About Device. So you would NOT add the same directory as mine because you won't have it. But you DO need to define this because if DO NOT it will FC
So say you want it to be under Users in SecSettings/General/Users.. you would add it like this:
Code:
<PreferenceCategory android:title="Device Info" />
<PreferenceScreen android:fragment="[COLOR="Orange"]com.android.settings.UserSettings[/COLOR]" android:focusable="false" android:layout="@layout/lacourb" android:key="profile_pic" />
So now when you click the picture in About Device it will bring you to this directory in SecSettings. So you'll end up in SecSettings/General/Users
Now open your AndroidManifest.xml. At the bottom add these lines:
Code:
<activity android:label="@string/change_pic" android:name="com.blac.Profile">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN"/>
</intent-filter>
</activity>
Okay now compile your SecSettings..Then grab the newly compiled one and decompile it.. Make sure you keep the AndroidManifest.xml because you changed it..
Now go to the MY public.xml you downloaded and extracted and then open YOUR res/values/public.xml open it and keep it open..You need to have these open to compare ids..
Open your smali folder you added: com/blac/
You need to find all the ids in the smali and change them to match yours.. for example open com/blac/Profile.smali.. Search 0x7f0401ee
Under my public.xml this id: 0x7f0401ee is for "profile_info".. Yours will NOT be the same.. SO you need to search each id in the smali and then in MY public.xml, you downloaded, then search yours and changed the id's...
NOTE: Be free to changed whatever you want..directories, names of xml etc...
Adding 5 icons shortcut on lockscreen
Credits to @Mirko ddd
Decompile SecSettings.apk and navigate to:
smali\com\android\settings\lockscreenshortcut\LockScreenShortcutSettings.smali
Search for the method ".method static constructor <clinit>()V"
Add the blue code in change of the red code
Code:
.method static constructor <clinit>()V
.registers 2
.prologue
const/4 v1, 0x0
.line 79
[COLOR="Blue"] const/4 v0, 0x5[/COLOR]
[COLOR="Red"] const/4 v0, 0x3[/COLOR]
sput v0, Lcom/android/settings/lockscreenshortcut/LockScreenShortcutSettings;->MAX_SHORTCUT_ICON:I
.line 80
sput v1, Lcom/android/settings/lockscreenshortcut/LockScreenShortcutSettings;->DEFAULT_CURSOR_WIDTH:I
.line 81
sput v1, Lcom/android/settings/lockscreenshortcut/LockScreenShortcutSettings;->ICON_5_CURSOR_WIDTH:I
return-void
.end method
Now we need to set the right icon width for the icons, if not the fifth icon won t be showed
Decompile framework-res.apk
Navigate to res\values-hdpi\dimens.xml
Edit these 2 strings with following values
Code:
<dimen name="keyguard_lockscreen_application_shortcut_icon_width">52.0dip</dimen>
<dimen name="keyguard_lockscreen_application_shortcut_icon_height">50.0dip</dimen>
Recompile and push both apks with 0644 permissions

Well its off-topic but you need to decompile your launcher if its samsung launcher then its SecLauncher2.apk or touchwiz30launcher.apk then go to res/xml here you will find the arrangements modify it then compile push it to your device and then clear data for the launcher
