sorry for misleading, the battery indicator is in framework-res.apk.

but if you changes other one, you may lose many UI features.

Awesome!! Looks great :d
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] sashake:
First of all thanks jjkkyu for this wonderful Theme, I really enjoy it.

The Xperia Icons / keyboard are awesome :).

Only "Issue" I got is that the display seems to drain alot of battery power.

When I leave it at max brightness its responsable for 90% of the battery drain

With brightness off it now is at 80%.

I remember my main source for battery drain to be my wifi connection on ~30% without your theme when used as phone/messenger.

Do you have any suggestion how/if I can fix it manually?

Will it be fixed in the future :P?

Infos: R800i, StockRom version .58
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] VictoryStar:
Yeah, the display drains 58% of my battery. However, the battery lasts even more than it lasted before I installed this theme, so I don't care at all. However, you might want to wait for an Auto brightness fix.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] ajtutxx:
is this theme compatible with Arc S LT18i?
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] w4lkm4n:
hey pal , i was looking your XPERIA S theme ,i've ask something ,is that power saver working like on XPERIA S ,i've made theme like you but ,i don't find power saver is working like on XPERIA S
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] ajtutxx:
Sorry about my earlier post. This works perfectly on my Arc S LT18i, currently I'm using BB64, .58 Hong Kong Stock Rom and a Kernel for battery fix by zohaib0001 (credits to him). Brightness is set to 35% which is the simpliest display for me. Also using some apps to maintain battery life with task-killers provided. My battery should last a day and a half with moderate use. 2 days for light use.

Great job and awesome theme! keep it up. :D
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] jjkkyu:
you mean you don't have the apk or a working one?

the powersaver working fine on my Play.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] jjkkyu:

[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Fußbodenheizung:
The theme is great, but it's not complete. The framework-res.apk and SemcGenericUxpRes.apk don't look like Xperia S.

For SemcGenericUxpRes.apk I've simply used an actual version from Xperia S, kindly uploaded by Mwolthuis here. It looks great.

As for the framework-res.apk, a lot of the drawable resources (images) are available in xhdpi resolution, but not in hdpi, so I've scaled them. And some are available in hdpi, but they need another copy with a "semc" in front of the filename, so I fixed that too.

So with these two files, almost everything looks Xperia S-ish and if it doesn't it's probably the app's fault (the screenshot app's buttons still have the ugly glossy look, I haven't yet investigated why, but it's probably its own fault, it probably has its own drawable for the buttons).

It was quite some work actually. Anyway, I'm attaching the file here. Also, automatic backlight works.

To do:

-Screenshot app buttons

-Alarm sliders

-Incoming call sliders
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Fußbodenheizung:
Someone please remove this double post
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] jjkkyu:
seems the attachment is broken, i download it for several times, but the file still remains 544 bytes.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Fußbodenheizung:
I've re-uploaded it.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] jjkkyu:
screenshot app buttons use the pictures in SemcGenericUxpRes.apk, mate.:D

as to alarm and call sliders, you should edit them in clock and SEMCPhone app.

i notice lockscreen and some button changed, although i prefer my own lockscreen, i still appreciate to your work.

btw, the mount button in rootexplore is strange after the buttons change in framework.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Fußbodenheizung:
Then I guess SemcGenericUxpRes.apk needs some work as well. The problem is that I can't decompile and recompile it. Any help would be much appreciated.

The lockscreen is from the official xperia s xhdpi drawables, just resized to the hdpi resolution. I don't know why it looks different than Xperia S lockscreen in the screenshots, but I kept it, because I thought it looked nicer and fitted other elements in the theme better.

Then I guess I must have cocked something up somewhere.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] jjkkyu:
Firstly, i have met all the questions you asked before.

It seems you are walking on my previous road.:D

if you use apktool to decompile it, you should install the framework-res.apk first.

type the command, you should add full path before "framework-res.apk".

apktool if framework-res.apk

and i'm also interested how you build framework-res.apk in such a small size.

i recompiled framework-res.apk and signed it and it don't work, so i replaced the files via winrar and made the apk grow fatter.

lockscreen in Xperia S don't use the images in framework-res.apk, the real lockscreen app in Xperia S is UxpNxtLockScreen.apk.

View attachment UxpNxtLockScreen.apk

i replaced the buttons before and it also shows that, so i leave it as current look.

if the rootexplorer also shows that in Xperia S, then i think we should take it easy and wait r.e. to fix it.

[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Fußbodenheizung:
Sorry for the very late response.

I used APK Manager to compile framework-res.apk. The compression level was set to 9, which is the default value. That's probably why the file is of a small size.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] jjkkyu:
Thanks for your info, and i found the Apk manager has been renamed to Apk MultiTool, i will try this tool.

And sorry for one misleading, i recently found that the buttons in ScreenCapture app use semc_btn_default_XX.png in framework-res.apk, not in SemcGenericUxpRes.apk.

Has anyone tried this on the R800x 2.3.4 update? I don't have the time to try it, but I dunno if it'll work because you said it requires 2.3.4(42/58/62).

[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Schwabie64:
Any chance for this to work on an Xperia Play r800x unlocked bootloader?
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] zachariahpope:
This did not work for me on my R800x with bootloader unlocked by Alejandrissimo. However, I did not take the OTA update, I was using the 2.3.4 nandroid which is somewhat buggy.. this could be a factor.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] jeff7424:
After applying theme, still can get official updates right?
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] itazchu:
Same question here. and also the same question for applying your .58 enhanced firmware here
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] TheCraig:
I think so, but it may change your theme back to Stock, either way the next update will be ICS and that won't be OTA, so it won't matter.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] jeff7424:
So which means theming doesn't affect updates?
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] TheCraig:
It can, but it really does not matter, There will be no more OTA updates until you are on ICS, and the only way to get onto that is to flash it or PC Companion once the update is out.
[Xperia Play Themes and Apps] Fußbodenheizung:
Maybe we should try to use the Xperia U theme instead of Xperia S's, since Xperia U has the same resolution. The launcher of Xperia S on Xperia Play also seems to have a very large trash can red space (when moving widgets) which could be because of the resolution difference.

R800X almost works.

For what it is worth I wanted to let people know while this will not work on a locked R800X I does boot.. I used this theme and the update file that was posted. It would boot up and I had a working lock screen and pull down notification with the toggles but the screen was blank otherwise. Would be awesome if we could get this to work for the R800X with locked bootloader.

Just thought I would share.

First of all I'm loving this theme great work :-)

But I've got a quick question I'm not sure if its the theme or somthing else but could it cause bad lag and a lot of redrawing? After using an app for a few mins and going back to the homescreen everything on it is gone and needs to reload its very annoying but not sure if its the theme causing it just wondering if anyone else is experiencing this?

Also when opening up the messaging and phone dialer it hangs for a bit then opens it.

I just flashed this on top of the stock from with no changes

It is A.W.E.S.O.M.E I will NEVER EVER restore to stock. All the apps work the way they should. :thumbup:

Though found some bugs (of course due to model difference)

But I guess no one ever noticed a common flaw (no offense) but the buttons don't match the original nxt ui. (But in some apps such as stopwatch, timer & 'Clear' button in Notification Panel Does) I guess it can be easily fixed by the dev since he developed this beautiful ui. Please fix the last time so it can be called as Real Piece of Work!! Thank You.
