LinkBack URL
About LinkBacksI have the Icons I want to replace. I know they go in the SystemUI.apk file, drawabel-hdpi and xhdpi folders. If I rename the original SystemUI and my new SystemUI goes in the original's location, what's next?
Is this the best way to do this?

I just use rom toolbox pro. It allows you to create backups just in case you screw something up and they have lots of options for icons

Don't rename your original SystemUI. If you change it to a .bak extension, your UI will crash repeatedly. Just drop your edited UI in to /system and make sure the permissions are RW-R-R. Then copy and move it to /system/app and paste. Say "yes" you want to overwrite and reboot.

No that's exactly what you shouldn't do. Lol Originally Posted by nubby

Should be the same as how you got it out. I use 7zip for that. Originally Posted by nubby
