yes ur right, same problem..
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] n3n00:
Holo Launcher.

I'm trying hard to get ICS Settings Style on Gingerbread but I'm having problems with compiling. I hope I'll make it :D
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] Sneppahtihs:
Could you elaborate?
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] n3n00:
Holo Launcher is smooth and has ICS look, with much more options than stock launcher in this theme.
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] Sneppahtihs:
Will it replace the current launcher or rather work on top of it? Because I've once installed GO Launcher on Xperia Ray, and the whole thing felt a bit incoherent.
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] n3n00:
You can uninstall Xperia Home and Xperia Home Preferences with Titanium Backup when you install other launcher.
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] Kevin31:
sorry n3n00, I think it's BAD advice! :(

may be you can try use freeze application in menu Titanium Backup

or better use "as default" another Home Lancher and leave stock launcher
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] n3n00:
Why lol?

I modded Settings, still not done (2 wrong icons as you can see, biggest fail I forgot Call Settings...), have to make buttons smaller like on ICS and change titles, rearrange options in menus... I think I'll be able to upload my version of theme tomorrow :).

P.S. I also think I'd might implement brightness and flashlight toggle, I'm fast learner :)
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] leonbadman:
N3n00....Hey man..Are you crazy ?!?!?!? :fingers-crossed: Great great theme...seems really ICS..wtf !!!.

Thanx again for you work!!!!

PS: for flashlight I think you can use the QuickPanelSetting, something like this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1686586

[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] n3n00:
Thanks... I'm actually doing this last 3 days, first time I decompiled/recompiled and I had a LOT of trials and errors... but I really want to make it perfect, not sure should I release v1 (it is still too similar to Gin2Ics, I don't want to steal Florins work) or mod Conversations.apk, SemcPhone+Phonebook etc.

Basically my plan is to change everything to ICS grey/blue/black.

About flashlight and brightness, I've seen some lines for that in other Settings.apk (which was my learning base cause it's also Sony phone) which are missing here, and I have to look in SystemUI, see if I can do something. Problem is, I think I didn't see GB ROM/theme with flashlight, and those with brightness actually have a slider, that's nasty...
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] azuremaroon:
Very great work guys, thanks!

One thing, I want to ask if installing this theme will cause battery draining? I'm experiencing battery drain after using this theme.But its beauty keeps me from reverting to the original one

Another thing is, the app drawer icon size changes when I press it. This gives me weird feeling. Can you fix this?

Again, thanks very much! n3n00 and FlorinXstyle
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] n3n00:
Don't thank me, I still didn't release anything.

Basically it's just a button, it should be easy. I'm not sure what is the name of it, but try to open Home.apk on PC with WinRAR, find them in res/drawable-hdpi (probably they are ending with _normal, _pressed), extract the normal one, rename it to pressed, add it to Home.apk using Store method in Winrar, exit. Put modded Home.apk on your sdcard and replace it in system/app with right permissions:

X X O

X O O

X O O

Make ROM backup before.
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] azuremaroon:
Thanks for the quick reply. =]

Let me try editing it.

How about the battery drain? Does the theme have anything to do with battery performance?
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] n3n00:
:S might have, but there's a lot of black so it shouldn't cause problems to display (I guess). Try removing bloatware/change baseband/if you are on BB64 install additional libs for it.
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] azuremaroon:
First, thanks for the advice

My situation is that Cell Standby is exceptionally draining more battery than Display, which is the usual battery-drain cause.

Even when I'm using the phone, Display doesn't take up much percentage, e.g. 6x% - 7x%, in Battery Use like before. Now I'm bothered by the situation ={
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] justkiddinghere:
Few things need to b chnge like launcher have huge space for icon looks wierd the line should be little bit lower and notification panel shorrcut icon these can be lil bit more good and more responsive

I press wifi button quickly twice lag is there
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] n3n00:
Yeah maybe it's caused by Xperia S app like phone, conversation :/

Anyway, good news, flashlight/brightness/screen timeout/lockscreen/reboot/shutdown and more toggles are working thx to quickpanel and I just need to re-theme statusbar layout to ICS look :), add quickpanel to Settings and I'll post my theme :).

Hi it's nice i like it,but there is one thing i don't like,pls if you could change:

lol.. the theme has nothing to do with battery drain . If you install this theme on 2.3.4 stock rom will not have such problems
[Xperia Arc Themes and Apps] Sneppahtihs:

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] epic118:
Rooting does not wipe your data.

[1] If you're on Gingerbread (2.3.3 - 2.3.6), flash CF-Root for your firmware. You won't lose a thing.

[2] If you're on Ice Cream Sandwich (4.0.3 - 4.0.4), you have two options.

OPTION 1

Download ADB, and run this command:

adb backup /all

This will do a full backup of your device. Use adb restore backup.ab to restore to the backup.

OPTION 2

Flash Siyah for your firmware.

[General Questions and Answers] funto:
But u shoud know that by rooting your phonne u loose waarranty.
[General Questions and Answers] SimonTS:
And out comes the same old drivel. This simply is NOT true. Some manufacturers make it more difficult for you to get your phone supported under warranty if you have rooted it, some phones you can just set it back and nobody can tell, and some phones it makes no difference.

Unless they can prove that you have done something to directly cause the fault (e.g. overclocking and burnt out the processor) they can't refuse to honour your warranty. If you have rooted your phone and the screen dies then it is obviously nothing to do with what you have done so they still have an obligation to repair it.
[General Questions and Answers] hkleomap:
There is always risk.
[General Questions and Answers] thebobp:
Depends how risk-averse you are. If the phone was 2 years of your life savings, then maybe don't do it.

Generally there is minimal risk as long as you follow all the instructions thoroughly, read everything and watch a few tutorials for good measure. But something can always go wrong.

Also, I wouldn't find overclocking a good enough reason to root my phone, but that's just me.
[General Questions and Answers] mikef:
Flashing a custom ROM or rooting does not void your warranty.

Hello, I want to remove/replace the "anim" folder from Achep's ICSandwichBlack. How?

Hello.

I've been using Achep's ICSandwichBlack theme since sometime.

For every ROM, I always replace the "anim" files of the framework-res.apk, but in Achep's theme, I seem to have found that it doesn't work..

There's already a anim folder in the theme, and I guess it's integrated with the theme.

But, I cannot edit these files.(Or I dunno how..)

I tried using apktool, but, I cannot build...due to a lot of errors.

Is there any method to remove it, or "not" integrate anim files?

Thank You.

(I've attached the files, incase any1 wants to try, but, I want to learn the method/the apps req to do it)
[XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Chris95X8:
It's a little more complicated than that. You can delete the files but it will give you errors because you also got to delete the links to these files.

Specifically, you got to remove the links from the xml's:

If the file is replaced, why wud error occur? During build, does it check and compare the size to the previous size values? Or is the transitions files not valid? But, it works for framework-res.apk, flawlessly !

Nonetheless, I shud probably find a tutorial to understand how the anim files work and edit accordingly..

Try going into the bootloader and re-flashing recovery, and then erasing the cache again using fastboot. You might be able to boot then.

If you want to mount the SD card you can do it in recovery if you're on 5.8.4.0, I think the option is "mounts & storage" then "mount USB storage". You should be able to transfer files from your PC to the SD card now.
