I have this working on my Arc S but based on posts above I replaced SemcPhone.apk and SemcContactProvider.apk with backups. The only annoyance is that my contacts were lost before I replaced SemcContactProvider and all my FB 'joins' and FB contact pictures were missing when I re-synced.

I'm using the stock music player, the music widget from update 2 and the stock default themes (the themes supplied with this mod aren't good).

Minor bugs - the menu buttons on the Contacts and SMS Conversation apps are too dark to read. Looks like the same bug the home launcher has (I replaced mine with a fixed version someone posted in the middle of this thread).

Also, the updated conversation window doesn't use the current theme colour - it's a mix of grey and white.

I love the new keyboard and the calendar is superb.

I wonder if someone could put together a single flashable zip that contains all the bits we know work OK so it's an easier install...

Yeh, the icon looks pretty low-res on my Arc S. It would be great to have it replaced with something better.

flamEmo, just found some minor graphical bugs.

framework-res.apk

MESSAGE of the picture is wrong... if your in silent HOLD the slider (just HOLD dont slide) you will see a speaker with X at the left, i think its wrong, the right one should be speaker with )).

i tried to extract the framework-res and compare the original framework-res, see the difference of MESSAGE portraying the picture between )) AND X...

CALENDAR FONT TOO LARGE

go to callendar settings and check "Use Home Time Zone"

you will see now the time zone, but... letters almost overlap on the gray background

letters almost overlap on the gray background

CALENDAR FONT TOO LARGE---> MISSING LETTERS

i like your work thats why i want to help u to make this better. :-)
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] ThilinaC:
try what I wrote here,hope you made a cwm backup before installing the zip ?
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] jtc42:
The icon in the APK is perfectly high quality, it's actually identical to the icon used in the old version of the app but with the new icon (that worked fine).

So I have no idea why it's displaying in low res on the phone itself :s
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] wayne850:
i love your theme but v4 is very unstable...i have random reboots and can't find the reason.i reflashed it a few times but always the same random reboots.i will stay now on v3 till you bring out an update.

Thank you anyway for your hard work

[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] Chewitt:
V4 working very well, not 100% I like the new keyboard but that is for no reason other than I don't use smiley's and so it's bit pointless for me. Other than that all is good and it works well, I used the edit the zip method pre flash to get it working. Now all we need is more of the widgets if possible and all will be well with the world.

I didn't got backup so im kinda ****ed up right now :)

Because,

No signal, Home.apk not working. And tried many combination of flashing old versions again. But didn't change anything.

Now im flashing stock kernel again via Wotan server :)

[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] datagubben:

[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] Chewitt:
So after a day of using 4, everything is working as it should (to install i deleted both SemcContactsProvider.apk and SemcPhone.apk from the Zip before i flashed it) love the new Clock/Alarm and the ability to customise what the lock screen displays to wake you up. Also the new keyboard took a bit of getting used to but once i realised that all the punctuation was displayed when you press space after a word everything feel into place.

Good update if installed correctly ( 1, 2, 3, Edited 4)

did u even try this new update ? do u know what will happen after that ? dumb,just stfu and learn
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] :
As Flamemo said the v.4 is just for testing and many things don't work. That's normal, stay with the v3 or help to fix the v4.
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] Lord Takyon:
You are so dense mate. You couldn't be bothered to check, yet you claim no responsibility.

You chose a course of action that could potentially cause problems and then you chose to do it regardless.

This thread is getting long now, but generally you get up to speed simply by skimming the last couple of pages.

Oh and just for the record we do know what will happen. We READ the important stuff before we started, we also read how to prevent it. You should have tried that.

Are you so sure you're not stupid?

I just wanted to give my feedback with more detail so here it is;

After i flashed v04 via recovery;

GSM was not working,

SonyEricsson Home.apk was not even recognized, i mean wasn't in the Launcer list.

Also there was an error something like "google graph process crash bla bla"

I'm currently using DoomKernel v18 fix 1. There was also SuperCharger v6 Installed.

I tried many things like re flashing v03 or start over etc. but didn't worked for me.

So i flashed stock rom via Wotan Servers,root,flash DoomKernel and other stuffs.

But this time at the end i took clean backup atleast, so lesson learned :P

Now im in v03 with everything working. It just looks awesome. But as far as i saw, v04's appearance much better than v03, i mean i really liked that notification icons etc.

So, that's all for now. You are doing really really good job ! Thank you for everything !

Looking for v04 fix or v05 whatever. Its gonna be legen.. wait for it.. dary :) !
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] rec71:
If you're on update 3 and you want to try 4 simply delete SemcContactsProvider.apk and SemcPhone.apk from the zip and flash with CWM.

Works for me (Arc S with .42 f/w).
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] cmby:
Sorry if this is a dumb question, but I have to ask, is it necesary to instal every update or can I just install version 3 from the start?

At least show some respect to the theme's creater Flamemo. Don't u bother reading the warning from Flamemo before installing? You could fix the problems if you read the previous posts.

@rec71

Thank you for your answer. I really want to use v 04 because i really really love that look !

But are you sure it will be same for Xperia ARC DoomKernel v18fix1 .42 FW even though i delete those apks ?

You know, i can't use my phone without GSM :P

Best Regards.
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] rec71:
It will work I'd you delete those files from the zip but backup first obviously!!!
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] oojjii:

Jajaja :D

I deleted those APKs and Flashed via CWM. Now i have 2 Alarms and 2 Clocks :D

But everything else is working fine. No GSM problem and no FCs Google Graph.

And i can use new apps like Stopwatch, new message app etc.

Thank you ! I will wait for v05 like that because notification icons etc. is simply beatiful i think !

Thank you again.

Best regards.

Hi,

How do you install framework without causing bootloops?, I tried replacing with root explorer but it didnt work.

Also can you make transparent notification and reboot options in power button list?, that would be great :)

Thanks

Mav
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] maverick7777:
Just to let you know guys, I managed to get transparent notification with brightness setting and also the swish at the bottom of the dockbar I've also got reboot option available and 7 home pages, maybe someone can help everything works perfect apart from only two things:.

Music albums folder doesnt work I know other people have said this on the thread, in v3 where can we extract the music apk and where do we put it?.

Also unfortunately now my contacts can not be imported does anyone know why this is the case and what apk must I replace or import with regards to importing contacts, the writing is there i.e import contacts, along with filter but they are dimmed out.

BTW I managed the extra modes by combining the all in one mod with this one and if I can get everything working I think it will be perfect for me, the S themes have also remained.

Also if I want to replace the battery icons what apk must I replace?.

Thanks

Can you make this stuff (esp. music player) work on Mini? :)
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] rec71:
How I got this working on my Arc S (.42 f/w)

For those still struggling here is what I did to get this awesome theme working.

I am not using the updated music player/widget from Update 3 due to a known crash when trying to select Artists and a non-functioning graphic equaliser. Instead I am using the widget/player from Update 2.

The themes are very grainy and don't look good on my Arc S so I have removed them.

The SemcContactProvider.apk and SemcPhone.apk files from update 4 don't work for me. I end up with no phone signal and repeated crashes on startup.

So to use everything else from this theme follow these steps:

Download all 4 zip files to your PC.

Open XPERIA_S_theme_update_by_flamemo.zip and remove DefaultThemes.apk from system/app.

Open XPERIA_S_theme_update_3.0_by_flamemo.zip and remove MusicWidget.apk and SemcMusic.apk from system/app.

Open up XPERIA_S_UPDATE_4.0_by_flamemo.zip and remove SemcContactsProvider.apk, SemcPhone.apk and DefaultThemes.apk from system/app.

Backup using CWM just in case.

Flash each zip via CWM in order AND REBOOT BETWEEN EACH ONE.

You will now have a working Xperia S theme.

Leave DefaultThemes.apk intact iif you want to see the new themes for yourself - if you backup your existing /system/app/DefaultThemes.apk first then you can always use Root Explorer to replace the flamemo one if it's not to your liking.

There are some minor issues - the Theme button on the home menu is too dark to see as our some menu options in the Contacts app. But this is a very minor issue as far as I am concerned.

Many many thanks to flamemo for all his hard work. I hope we get more updates!

HTH.

I used Titanium Backup to freeze [ALARMS] Clock 2.0.2 and now I only have the new clock. :)

If I could work out what apk file Clock 2.0.2 is then I could probably put a script together that removes it.

[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] maverick7777:
Hi,

I'm currently building my own rom, with my own themes, the new s calender, and widgets, transparent notification with shortcuts and brightness control, and reboot in power menu.

I'm using a lot from arconium so it is minimal, it also has one alarm and one clock the new s ones, and I've installed sony walkman as the player which i think is quite cool.

there are 7 homescreens also and other bits and bobs, new font etc, everything works perfect but I haven't been able to locate the new s icons as flameno has on his last update I have looked in systemUI, home.apk in nearly all of the res folders, also I would like to change the home screen page squares to the s versions as they are nicer can anyone please help.

Once its all finished I'm hoping to share with everyone once I get approval from a lot of the people who've I used development stuff from

Thanks
