Custom Icon Background Transparency Problem topic

Hey all,

Hope you can provide some assistance. I got an all-white icon set, and modified a few .pngs in Photoshop to add color to match my theme. Backgrounds were transparent, displayed transparent in Photoshop, still opened as transparent after I exported them for web as png-24s with transparency preserved. However, as soon as I drag the icons over to the root of my storage card, my phone (HTC One) displays the once transparent backgrounds as black. What gives? I've tried using Photoshop 7, Photoshop CS6, and GIMP with the same results. I'm I missing something?

Can any one, or has anyone successfully added an image background to kik messenger chats?

[Statusbar] Change the icons and background of your statusbar for all android devices topic

FOR ALL ANDROID DEVICES

Note: Take a complete nandroid backup before doing this, though there is no threat. It is still compulsory to take nandroid backup!!!

Follow the steps carefully, they are very easy:

1) Download NinjaMorph from GooglePlay, https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...injamorph.free
2) Open it, you need root of course. Click on New Project.
3) Now browse down to system, and choose it, then choose app folder.
4) A long list will appear. Search SystemUI.apk and choose it. The app will extract the apk. Stop!!!! Don't go any further.
5) Join your mobile to pc and allow USB storage.
6) Go to your Mobile's sd on the pc and find a folder named android themes, open it. Then open a folder named workspace, then SystemUI and then res.
7)Now open a folder named drawable-Idpi in which you will find many files.
8) now we start changing!
9)You should set your windows to show the folder in tiles. So now you will see the quickpanel icons like bluetooth and wifi with names like quickpanel_icon_bluetooth_on etc.
10)Find a desired icon and change it with, but remember the new icon should be of the same pixels and should also have exactly same name as the old one, EXACTLY SAME!!!!!
11) Do not only change the icons which represent a function is on like bluetooth on but also change its off icon like quickpanel_icon_bluetooth_off. REMEMBER IT SHOULD BE THE NAME AS THE OLD ICON'S NAME!!!!
12) Now find icon named statusbar_background.9 and change it with your desired background. Do the same with title_bar_portrait.9. Remember the new icon should be of the same pixels and should also have exactly same name as the old one, EXACTLY SAME!!!!!

Now disconnect usb storage, go to NinjaMorph again but this time choose Finish Project, choose SystemUIapk and click yes on all that pops up.

Now your status bar will disappear but don't worry just reboot. REMEMBER ALL NEW ICONS SHOULD BE THE NAME AND SIZE AS THE OLD ICONS!!!!

IF YOU MADE ANY MISTAKE IN THE STEPS AND YOUR STATUS BAR IS RUINED THEN EITHER EDIT IT AGAIN CORRECTLY OR DO A NANDROID RESTORE.

Settings background (background_holo_dark) topic

[Using Android 4.3.1 (CM10.2) on a Galaxy Nexus]

I'm attempting to replace the stock gradient background of the settings menu. I was able to get it to show all black instead of the gradient but I can't seem to get it to show a PNG image.

This is what is found in the /res/drawable/background_holo_dark.xml file

Original gradient:

Code:

---

<shape
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<gradient android:startColor="#ff000000" android:endColor="#ff272d33" android:angle="270.0" />
</shape>

---

Black background:

Code:

---

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape
  xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
    <solid android:color="@color/black" />
</shape>

---

Attempt at using a PNG image (image placed in /drawable-nodpi/background_holo_dark.png) courtesy of this thread

Code:

---

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" android:background="@drawable/background_holo_dark">
</LinearLayout>

---

Using the above code to use an image as the background causes settings to force close. When I open Root Browser (which uses background_holo_dark.xml) it says something along the lines of "size of image too large".

Anyone know why the code fails?
