If you are a born freak, you like to personalize your phone and your system even in the most recondite details and you have a Samsung terminal with a TouchWiz interface, you will be interested in what we come to tell you next. Thanks to the work of a member of the XDA developer forum, a simple guide on cHow to modify the names or icons of our apps in the TouchWiz user interface Samsung's own.

The XDA developer, M_J_Nazari, has shared through the forum a very simple way to modify the icons and names of the apps in the TouchWiz interface, so this guide is only for those who have a Samsung smartphone. Nazari explains step by step how to easily modify, replacing the icon or name of the application with the one we want, that is, by a custom icon, or by the name we want to put, no matter which one.

The method described requires us firstly download the APK provided by the author CSCAppResource.apk., decompile it with the help of tools like APKTool. Once decompiled, it tells us that we must add the new icons selected by us and that we want to see in our applications to the folder destined to contain icons and that we will find after decompiling.

In addition we must edit .XML files that we will also find in the APK, so that finally the icons and names respond to what we have in mind. In the original thread, the author of the guide, M_J_Nazari, provides examples where we can see the editing of the .XML files necessary for a successful modification of the APK. We recommend that you follow their examples step by step so as not to get lost and make the modification correctly.

In the forum they have already confirmed that this method has worked correctly in the Galaxy S3, S3 Mini and Note 2. So, once you compile the APK again and restart your mobile you should see the new denomination of applications and new icons in your interface TouchWiz, more personalized than ever.
