[Q] [GB 2.3.4] [THEMING] Icons

So I have been trying to theme my xperia ray, it's running stock GB 2.3.4 (build 62, that latest one).

Unfortunately there's no tutorial specific for xperia ray or at least for xperia 2011 users I found on the net about theming. I only found it on other phone threads. And yeah they provide the basic theming and thats what I have been following but I think some ways are somehow different in xperia ray's gingerbread.

My goal is to achieve an AOSP blue look by gathering png icon files from across the net or AOSP rom to replace some icons in the SystemUI.apk and framework-res.apk. But I don't think some pngs are replacable. Like for example the ".9.png" files. Here are the things I want to achieve including the problems/issues that I have.

- I want a pitch black status bar (somehow the status bar background png file in my stock GB isn't editable, I don't know why)

- I want blue AOSP icons (in GB, the status bar icons for data status are so many that i dont have enough image source to replace them, so i have to do some image editing and unfortunately Photoshop cant do that. Any recommendation?

- I can't seem to find the icons in the settings menu to replace. I mean those icons you see when you're in Settings like Wireless and Networks, Sounds, Display, etc etc.. Where are they?

- I'm not really sure which icons are really needed to be replaced to at least achieve and aosp look and doesnt look like gingerbread. Because some icons looks the same, for example the activity title bar icon. There are two icons for that, one is labeled "Semc".

So, any Xperia themers out there would like to help me? Because i dont really like using custom ROM. I like stock and mod it myself for the best satisfaction. And there maybe other questions I will ask as i progress further. The reason i use GB is for its smoothness. I'm a gamer. I need smoothness. It's just that GB's interface is old and ugly.

I'm getting a headache about this theming thing. :(

Thanks in advance.

Xperia Ray: Stuck, nothing is working after installing Smultronic :(

Hey guys!

I think I'm in big trouble here. I have an xperia ray with ICS 4.0.4, .587, rooted, locked bootloader. I decided to give a try to some custom roms and flashed CWM and installed xperia Ultimate HD 2.0. Everything went perfect! Then I realized +ANT was not supported in this rom and started looking for another rom that would. So I came across Smultronic. I installed it via CWM following all the instructions on this thread: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1796272

But when I tried to open Script Manager (to follow this step: Open Script Manager application set sail as root, navigate to the directory

/system/etc/init.d and select 78script run the file as root and at boot, reboot), Script Manager hanged and I had to shut down the phone. After that, everything started to malfunction.

Wi-Fi and data connection are not working. Lost CWM. Lost root I think, but I cannot say for sure cause every app I try to run, force closes. I tried to reflash CWM to do a restore but I can't flash anything 'cause the computer won't recognize the phone/SD card and nothing happens when I connect via USB. I tried toggling every option (MTP/MSC/Debugging, etc.) with no luck. Also, the phone won't charge if I plug it to a wall outlet. I tried installing CWM via xParts, but it just hangs. So now, my battery is dying and I'm stuck with this rom. Any ideas? BIG thanks in advance!

You can download an app "Rom Toolbox" from Google Play and there you can find the options to replace the icons form the stauts bar.

Good luck :)

I use Photoshop for all my image editing, not a lot it can't do, but you could try Gimp or Paint.net

I assume you have already looked in the Settings.apk

Look at your Phone then look at the images, it's quite easy to determine what most images are used for what, and you will find it's a lot of trial and error when you have duplicate images.

Just reflash a stock ROM using the Flashtool or SEUS.

Hi folks,

I am running NeilDownx MIUI right now, but want to try [ROM]JELLY SANDWICH 8.4 | arc/S | Neo/V/L | Ray | Pro | << 30 November << OTA << .

I am using SirKay's X kernel.

First time I tried to upgrade to Jelly Sandwich (8.3) I got stuck in a bootloop and needed to restore a backup.

Since I cannot post in that thread yet a few questions here:

Anyone know where I can get the stock rom? I could only find roms based on stock, or will that suffice?

Does anyone have a link to the advanced kernel they are speaking of?

Last but not least: is there a direct link to the 8.4 version to download? Or do I need to download the 8.0 and the 8.4 OTA update? (And then do I apply that update before or after first boot?)

I know: al lot of questions. But that is what this thread is for right? :P

Thanks a lot for your answer! :) Unfortunately, I cannot reflash anything cause the phone is not recognized by the PC. Nothing happens when I connect it via USB. So flashtool won't see it. I'm trapped. :eek:

Hi,

My ray's camera glass was dirty. (scratch)

Can i change it? Where can i buy this glass?

Is there difference if i update phone from GB to ICS with PcCompanion or SUS? Im under impression that Sony update service is better choise (I get faster phone, less lagg...etc).

Now after some time past since 4.0.4 is relesed - how it is for everyday use? Is it stabile enough, is there a lot of lag or serious bugs? Im considering update, so if i can get some more improvements with root and mods - why not? Camera mod for example...

But first, I must inform myself... ;)

Easy question would be - do I go ICS or not?

cm 7.2 vpn not working - do you have the same prob? any fixes?

just got cm 7.2 onto my ray. everything pretty much ok, brighness bug fixed with a workaround.

here's the problem: can't connect to VPN! have 2 on pptp and one on L2pt, none of them connect. they all work from my computer, and did work on the htc that i came from, that also ran 7.2.

has anyone experienced the same? remedies?
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] fun12892:
yeah, right. I just found out they are in settings.apk. I have managed to replace the icons. But you said you use Photoshop, really? I opened a status bar icon (HSDPA icon) and i only saw big squares in blue. It was supposed be a blue letter "H" icon. I tried a freeware called pixelformer and it showed the correct icon, too bad it doesnt support layering. Maybe I could try Gimp or Paint.net as you said. Thank you :)
[Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A] SXUsr:
The one thing PS doesn't do well is Index images which is what I think you're referring to? At first to get around that I would either use Paint.net to edit, or just open and save the image in Paint.net then open and edit in PS, until I came across www.fnordware.com/superpng/. I had forgotten about that until you just mentioned your issue.

I had the same problem. If you are in the bad signal area, then when the phone switch from 2g to 3g it goes without signall loss, but when the sigla change from 3g to 2g then the signal is lost for about 2-3 second. Try to enable "only 2g" if you are in bad signal area.

For xperia keyboard: link it works with PAC 4.1.2, it should be working with cm10

The conversation app? I think is not compatible (cm10/pac doesn't have sony framework) But some dev may port CAMPS+ jb rom. CM10+AOKP+MIUI+PA+SONY, maybe in this rom you can use sony conversation.

Hi..

I tried using Flashtool for my st18i as instructed in various threads..

i was trying to restore stock ROM to my phone (Currently i have cyanogenmod7)

1. It detects my phone

2. When i select "flashmode" ..it gives me error saying drivers not installed

for your device.

Tried installing drivers from "Flashtool/drivers"..does not work

I have tried installing various drivers fr my phone but still flashtool gives me same error.

3. When i connect my phone (after turning it off) by holding "Volume Down" key while connecting USB..my PC says "SEMC usb device" detected..and then hangs..

I have tried on 3 different computers and also by turning off Antivirus, uninstalling Sony Ericsson PC Companion.. But on every computer when I plug my phone this way..it Hangs.

4. If I plug my phone by holding "Volume UP" key while connecting USB..it gets detected as ADB device and the driver is successfully installed but Flashtool does not proceed..it keeps showing me the "Turn off and plug your device" screen.

5. I have searched a lot and not come across any tutorial to flash and install ROM using only "fastboot" method

can anyone help me in this?
