Tutorial: Create automatic icons for your themes in iOS4
Hey iPhone enthusiast, by taking advantage of an iOS 4 feature, we can create automatic icons in your themes for App Store apps. This doesn't work with Cydia apps (those that contain icons). Just follow the tutorial, and if you have any questions, I'll also provide a written tutorial.
Requirements:
- Having a jailbroken device https://iphoneate.com/jailbreakme-2-0-ios-4-0-4-0-1-tutorial-completo/
- Having WinSCP http://iphoneate.com/video-tutorialcomo-utilizar-winscp-ipodiphone/
- iFunbox: https://iphoneate.com/iusb-tunnel-openssh-without-wifi/
Steps:
Inside your theme folder, you need to create a folder called Bundle DealsInside it you must create another folder called com.apple.mobileicons.frameworkYou must create two images, one called AppIconMask.png and another call AppIconShadow.pngBoth images must be inside the com.apple.mobileicons.framework folder.
Keep in mind that the AppIconShadow.png image must be the same size as your theme's icons and be the same or similar to them (so they don't clash with your active theme). The AppIconMask.png image must be smaller than the one mentioned above. The function of this image is to crop the original icon of the app or apps from the app store that don't have an icon and place them in the center.
Having done all of the above, we should end up with something like this:
Theme name.theme/Bundles/com.apple.mobileicons.framework/AppIconMask. png and AppIconShadow.png
