Hi guys

Having a old status icons and status bar look.
Change them with icons you want. You cam also design your own icons.

But for all this you need to do homework.

Requirments
1 -- rooted android device

http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...=3097942<br />

2 -- custom recovery installed

http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...=3098209<br />

3 -- root brouser installed on your android

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0ByZ...p=docslist_api

4 -- backup of your android(in caad of any defect in editing).

Instructions

1-- goto to root of your internal device memory -->system-->framwork-res--> you will find an app named framwork-res.apk copy it to a folder in sd card.

2-- goto to root of your internal device memory -->system-->apps--> you will find an app named systemUI.apk copy it to a folder in sd card.

3-- now open root brouser and navigate where you have saved the two apk .now extract each of them one by one.

4-- now generally all the icons and showablw objects on screen are png or jpg images .easily edited. Goto to extracted folder and find res folder .inside it you will find lots of folder having inages which you are femilior with.

5-- basically find which type of pixel density your droid have
Ldpi - low density of pixel per inch
Mdpi - medium density of pixel per inch
Hdpi - high density of pixel per inch

6-- edit images of that folder which have all properties of your droid screen. If havin many folders of same density then choose that folder which have hunderds of images.

7-- whenever editing an image the name And dimensions of image should not be altered

8-- using pc for that will be good but if you are editing on droid photoedit is a good app.

9-- after editing the framwork-res and systemUI place then in respective folders in the zip folder provided by me.
Inside system of zip place
Systemui will go to app folder
Framwork-res will go to framwork folder.
Plz do it very carefulley othervise you will be in danger of bricking your device.

10-- after you have placed both files in place now zip the main folder again using root brouser.

11-- now boot into recovery and select update fron zip and let it do the work.

12-- after it has done reboot and you will see changes.

Status bar look
Notifications icon on status bar
Can change launcher befault app icons
And lots more.
