Hi
Can any one edit the original sehome.apk (launcher)
and make it allow to put many widget in home
because ilove this launcher but the problem it allow one widget in page
Hey why don't u use the new xperia arc launcher, it works for mini/pro...
However if you wana use d old one and want more than one widgets pls attach the home apk file...I am new at these stuff so won't assure u anythn but I cn surely try
sent from ma xperia mini pro CM6 v3.2.1
i tried the xperia arc launcher but it was not good like the original because the original has big icon and easier to use
Ok now I got this file...
Now I plan to blend the se home eclair version with se home xperia arc version...
So u will get multiple widgets with 4 corner screens...
This is just an idea...editing the apk for implementing it might get on ma nerves though
But would love to give it go

i think its not possible/atleast very dificult to edit smechome and successfully compile it, i have an idea to build a widget that can hold widgets, im not sure its possible but wanna give it a try
Editing appk is quite tough as you said...and those .smali files are nasty !!!
As in this case the semchome.apk doesn't get decompiled...it sends an error

if you use apk manager under windows, in your home folder you can find apktool folder. Just replace the 1.apk file in apktool/framework(this is in ur home not the folder you extracted apk manager to!) folder with the framework-res.apk ( obviously you must rename it to 1.apk). Other wise you may try android apktool its much simpler and better you may google or find it on xda
Hey I have an apktool.jar here
C:\Program Files\Android\android-sdk\platform-tools...
Inside this apktool.jar I have an android-framework.jar at this location
apktool.jar\brut\androlib
So i need to replace this android-framework.jar ?
And am sorry I just cant find 1.apk
can you like paste your directory structure coz the default android sdk would install the same way for both of us (hopefully)
Thnx for helping dude
mmmmm
i can't understand
do you mean the original x10 mini framework ( jar file ) ?

two things you got wrong
1) its framework-res.apk not jar
2) you must look into your windows home dir generally C:\Users\<username>\apktool\framework (in win7)
if you use apk manager under windows, in your home folder you can find apktool folder. Just replace the 1.apk file in apktool/framework(this is in ur home not the folder you extracted apk manager to!) folder with the framework-res.apk ( obviously you must rename it to 1.apk).

finally android apktool is different from apk manager. If you dont have success with apk manager try apktool you can get it here http://code.google.com/p/android-apktool/
I got u so far
And btw there is a framework.jar within the apktool.jar if u see
But yes I got u, dat I must try apk managers script and if it doesn't work I shall use apktool.jar directly
Thnx

can this be done? i like the SE home screen... with the short cuts in the corners...
BTW
some one sucessfully ported arc to x10...
Here you go, this Arc launcher is beautiful, better than X10 Mini in my opinion. This is the only model I've tried the launcher on, E10i. You only need to install the HOME APK I discovered......
Question: These apk files which one should replace in system/app? Coz 4sure in my system/app folder there is no home.apk. Owning a X10 mini

i suppose you just put them in your /system/app. don't worry if you don't have home.apk, at least you will still have your default launcher ready just in case this wont work for you.
p.s. don't forget to set proper permission first, before moving the app to /system/app
hello all...
I did install the home apk and photo widget apk...but the photo widget is usable only wid home app. It cannot b used wi dany oder launcher.
So while going thru photo widget apk, I came across this...
It contains ann android manifest xml file.
This xml file has a line dat says,
SharedUserId : com.sonyericsson.home
I was wondering if this line cld be removed or if com.sonyericsson.home cld be replaced wid smthn like org.adwfreak.launcher for adw users
and if the APK cld be recmpiled?
Is dis possible?
Wld dis make it avlbl for oder launchers as well
and if yes then how cn it b done if sm1 cld explain?

Thanks, this launcher works fine on X10 Mini Pro.
How I installed it:
Simply install the 3 files (no need to move them around, just install like a normal apk). The 2 widgets are optional.
Reboot the phone, select 'Home' when prompted. 'Home screen' is the old launcher.
Advantages over the old launcher:
multiple widgets per screen
shortcuts, folders
multiple app sorting options
Disadvantages:
no 4 corner shortcuts
sliding out the keyboard causes a reload
icon labels in the last row are cut out
a little bit slower

Why don't you give it a try.
Use APKTool to extract XMLs from app, edit the XMLs and rebuild the app.
Reply if it worked.

here's a tutor on how to edit the launcher:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=11907212&postcount=163
first you need to extract the .apk and start to edit the .xml file..but from the thread,it said u can't do it on window..ur environment should be linux in order to edit the file.

Hello,
I want to decompile the DefaultThemes.apk ! However,decompiling with apk manager 4.9 gives an error !
I dont want to just change the images,but add another theme !
What can be done ?
probably the best solution would be enable the cyanogenmod themes manager and install that theme...

defaultheme.apk need dependencies for being decompiled which is framework-res.apk and SemcGenericUxpRes.apk
you can find them on /system/framework
I do not use apkmanager so can't tell you the way to do it but with apktool i do this
Code:
apktool if framework-res.apk
apktool if SemcGenericUxpRes.apk

Hello,thanks ! I was able to decompile the apk successfully. However,I added the desired files for new theme,added the ids,and edited the smali files ! I then recompiled it and signed it. However,after pushing it to the phone,it doesn't work,just a blank screen is displayed ! Here is my apk ! What shall I do to make it work ?
Thanks !
Edit : It is working after restarting phone,however new theme doesn't show up in themes menu,only old ones are shown !
i have this eror too...
decompile apkmanager v5.0 send log: cant find framework resourse of parkage of id:2.You must install proper framework file, see project wedsite for more info.??
How can i decompile this defaultthemes.apk?
sr my bad english..!
Solution?
What I do is using Root Explorer.apk I extract the file while on the phone (it automatically unfold it in a new folder called extracted). I copy the original files to a TMP folder in case I delete or make mistake with the original files when copy them over.
I then connect the phone via USB and change the files thats need to be changed and then I unplug the USB cable and again using the Root Explorer.apk I choose to zip it again. An from there I rename the new file to *.apk
Hope it helps
guys please help...i like too much defaultthemes but i did everything and they don't take effect to my phone...mini pro 2.3.7 mcm7 v21 i put them in the system/app change perm but nothing...maybe cause i have a theme from themechooser or something...in the start i didn't replace the default themes.apk there wasn't anything there... any ideas???thanks

The problem in my update was textinput-tng.apk
why?
because the apk use xperia resources framework
if someone can emblem and cyanogen to(resources.arcs) maybe can be workable
If your bootloader is unlockable,flash the latest SDE to enjoy,if not sorry..
This keyboard works for CM9 and CM10 . Could someone port it for GB?

No, I have success in resigning unmodified stock framework-res, so META-INF have no sense because new META-INF is signed by new key and its working!

have you figured out the problem yet??
and one thing I wanted a favour........
I wanted to change the rotation fix for your MIUI to back to its original state..... decompiled the framework-res.apk from the MIUI and changed the some values in framework-res/res/values/bools.xml and then recompiled it and when I replaced it with the default one I was getting the status bar of different width from the original..... it was almost double..... I also tried by just replacing some images just for test and the same thing happened........
Can you tell me whats the problem is????
Hey bro,
Even I was stuck with this issue for a while I think it was Spaun_Studio who found out how to fix this issue Its basically to do with apktool not bundling the required nxt drawables as needed Anyway, Here's the fix :
1) After decompiling, go to apktool.iml and delete the following lines :
usesFramework:
ids:
- 2
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
2) Go to res/values and open styles.xml. There, delete all references to sonyericcson.uxp:drawable (Delete the entire line)
Then, compile and it will work
Credits to Spaun_Studio and not me for the idea
Cheers
