[Xperia Z Themes and Apps] LitoNi:
Please note: this thread is no longer being developed, nor the files are up to date. Therefore, the following files will not work with the latest 4.4 Kit Kat. Sorry for any inconvenience caused.​

Ever since 4.2 was pushed out yesterday for us the Xperia Z owners, well I've made some small changes to them and I want to share with you, wonderful people on XDA. LitoNi's Style! lol enjoy!

Before you begin:

For

odex or deodex

stock roms, PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU'VE DOWNLOADED THE RIGHT ONE FOR YOUR ROM

Your device must be rooted

A working root explorer or whatever you use to move the system files

A working recovery. Backup your entire system if it matters that much

Backup which ever apk(s) you have decided to overwrite with my file(s)

I will most likely not accept any request in modding anything. The reason behind this is that I cant satisfy all of you, and I'm still busy with school. But Ill see what I can do when Im free!

NOTE:

Did all experiments on my Xperia Z C6603 4.2.2

Instructions:

Download the apks I've provided below

Put it in SD card or internal storage

Go into Root Explorer

Move it into System/

Change the permission to RW--R--R

Move it into System/apps/ (overwrite the current one)

Reboot and Enjoy

Side note: You can more more than 1 apk file at once, saves you time and hassle.

Side note 2: I once had issues moving systemui.apk and home.apk at the same time, therefore move either one in first then reboot and do the second one.

Special Instructions:

You need to rename the above apk to "SystemUI.apk", set the correct permission and move it into System/App/

Then go into recovery and flash "X_softkey_32_10.3.A.0.423" by glitschi667 (He removed the file so I uploaded to this post below)

*** READ ME *** Flashing this zip file will make your keys to size 32 and also camera function "picture effect" will no longer work. So flash this at your own risk. The ONLY reason you have to flash this is because changing the Sony Navi Keys to Google Navi Keys somehow caused a bug for the "back" button to be smaller, so flashing this zip file will make to that size. Other than the bug for picture effect, everything else works fine. See the screenshot below.

NEW_SmallAppsLauncher.apk

Semi Transparent Black Background Small Apps Launcher

Removed the small white line separator

NEW_XperiaLockScreen.apk

<--- Download the updated version which is named NEW_Xperia......apk

Clean Lockscreen v2

UPDATE: I changed some values. From what "I" see, the Lockscreen seems to be more responsive and faster, including loading the camera, animation fade in/out.

FOR ODEXED ROMS: Download NEW_XperiaLockScreen.apk

FOR DEODEXED ROMS: Download NEW_deodex_XperiaLockScreen.apk

I removed the "slide up or down to unlock" message, cause it was too annoying. Simple method couldnt remove it so I took another route

Side Note: If you change language other than English, it "may" cause the text to appear again. So far I have no idea how it can do that, so if you're just using english then it won't appear anymore.

Previous Version

Those icons I've used are SmallWhites2 made by Black Bear Blanc and I used Simple Text from Play Store to make the short cuts for the dock.
