Is there a way to choose/make/browse themes [FULL] only for incoming call screens? Especially for Samsung Galaxy Y, the stock answering call is really bad.
Is it possible to download / theme the incoming call screen via Metamorph? And where to find such themes for Samsung Galaxy Y?
I already know about some third-party apps on Play store such as Ultimate Call Screen HD, but they don't do what I need.
p.s. I'm NOT looking either for ROMs with different incoming call screens (I'm here for a simple way to theme the incoming call screens for android)

I decompiled Phone.apk
there are many xml files and png images, I'm looking for the images that targets "specifically" the incoming call screen items such as the background, frames, sliders. What are the png/xml file names to tweak those specific things

Anyway, I found many Phone.apk online for different ROMs and different Android devices. Is it OK if I used any for my Galaxy Y?
I think ya, coz some of my system app is from custom rom n I am using stock rom just give it a try, is it work or not. N do a backup before changing the app

I downloaded several Phone.apk(s) from the net, but every time I try to install one it asks me that "this is a system app, do you want to replace" and say yes but then it says (Application not installed)
What could be wrong? and how to fix it?
I think you should flash via cwm. Well, i am a beginner but even i changed my default one. But pls confirm with senior members. I think you have to flash it

I tried flashing the flashable APK but with no success, it displayed "installation aborted" at the end.
Yes I agree with koradiavatsal, u should flash through cwm, or try this, copy the file (Phone.apk) to /system n set permission to rw-r--r-- n then move n replace it to /system/app, then reboot. If this not succesfull the one way is flash it through cwm

Before I continue to to the replacement inside the system/app directory...
Is it ok to replace even if the Phone.apk is made for ICS or JB? I of course use GB.

You mean there boot animation? Replace the bootanimation.zip in system > media with your own (make sure it is named bootanation.zip) and set permissions to 644.
And like always, make a nandroid backup first just in case.

No,not boot animation..the phone animation..like the effect when you change volume,press menu,etc..
Sent from my X8 using XDA Premium App
That is included in most themes, so you would have to install a new theme.
Mostly are coded into framework-res.apk in system/framework but other are app specific.
Use Apk Manager for decompile them and change what you need.
be carefoul, if you change something wrong your phone could go into a bootloop, make a nandroid backip before.
Search in forum for framework-res and you will find a lot of good guides for modify it.

Is this really modded?? I think its the work of an app. You can easily edit the size of the photo by editing some values in the decompiled xml files.

Just replace Phone.apk with Creed's v2.0's Phone.apk and set the permissions to rw-r--r--. Its the same call screen with a smaller caller image.

Can you plz. Give me link to that phone.apk.. plz... i really need that..

That's kinda a silly question mate. Replace the SystemUI.apk of that rom with yours, and also insert lidroid-res.apk in your framework. Don't do the changes directly, make a flashable zip (there's a guide by kurotsugi) and flash it.
Btw, i don't really know if this has been tried before.

Here it is - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1669489. Btw, i expected you to search. Do remember that next time.
And about the other thing you referred to, i suppose you refer to the theme, and i really don't know much about that! But there are two other apks, framework-res.apk and twframework-res.apk in /system/framework which are used for theming along with SystemUI.apk . You can decompile them and check for yourself.

you do nothing on systemUI.apk inside your rom
I installed all apk found under system/framework with apktool.
*framework-res.apk & another apk
Then decompiled Settings.apk of Xperia pro stock ics Rom.
After that ,without making any change I compiled the apk. Then I surprisingly noticed that the size compiled apk is 1/3 of original stock settings.apk .
Then I flashed the apk using cwm to my phone to test if it work .after flashing, the setting icon is invisible in launcher menu !
Plz anybody tech me how decompile and re compile stock settings.apk of Xperia pro properly..

After clicking on compiling apk manager asks to delete resources.arc and also the xml you edited. Then compile it should.

Uploaded the stock deodex att phone, contact and Mms apk.
To get the white dialer to work you have to replace both phone and contact files
You'll want to make a backup in System/app of the files you want to replace, drop these In the folder, set permissions then reboot & you should be good.

You're swapping out SecContacts.apk right? Thats where the main dialer is. SecPhone.apk is just the in-call dial-pad.
