Customize Logo and Background on Mobile Client


Revision as of 13:37, 6 August 2013 by MHM (Talk | contribs)

It is possible to customize logo and background images for applications on a mobile device. This can be done by simply placing/replacing certain files under the following directory.

SD_CARD/Android/data/APP_PACKAGE_NAME/files/UIConfigurations
  • SD_CARD represents the root of the external storage of a device
  • APP_PACKAGE_NAME is the concatenation of "com.augmensys.ubik." and the application name, e.g. "manualtest", "rag"
Certain files include:
  • bg_landscape.png - background for landscape mode
  • bg_portrait.png - background for portrait mode
  • icon.png - logo for launcher, ActionBar, etc.

The customization can be achieved through the following steps:

  1. Launch any file browser application;
  2. Choose image files to be used as logo and/or background, rename them according to the default naming;
  3. Navigate to the predefined directory, create it if not found;
  4. Place the renamed files under the selected directory, replace the old files with the same names if exist.

Technical Background

The customization of logo & background on a local device will be overruled by server customization associated with the current Application and Context once users login.
