Just download wonokairoen's theme from themes and apps section. Extract it using winzip/winrar etc.
Replace all his files by your files, dont change anything in META-INf folder.
Zip back the files and your theme will be ready.
Dont forget to take wonokairoen's permission before using his zip.

An easy way would be to use Desktop Visualizer https://play.google.com/store/apps/...DEsImpwLmNvLmJpaS5hbmRyb2lkLmFwcC5kc2t2enIiXQ..
Here is a link to find original Xperia S icons. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1543555 I'm sure the Xperia S ICS icons will be available presently.

I will tell you one simple method ,just copy the app(whose icon you want to change) from system/app using root explorer and paste it to sd card after that paste it to desktop ,(note:you should have 7zip or winrar installed),right click on the app and extract it and then open the extracted folder app and goto res/drawable-hdpi and change it with ics icon from another app by same method,now right click on the app and click open archive,now delete the res folder from there and paste the folder(res) from the extracted folder and you are done now copy the modified app to sd card and remove the system app with it

Change the .apk to .zip and extract the aplication to find your image change it to transparent and compress files again to zip and normal comperession method with win zip or win rar then change the .zip to .apk and replace the new aplication with root explorer and restart .....enjoy

Easy solution
you can just try this mod in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1797064
you will be able to remove the bottom line completely but not the upper line
and it's more customizable than stock

i cant do this.. whenever i change the .zip to .apk and bluetooth it to my phone the outcome is Home.apk.zip (the icon is in zip icon)
Use 7zip it will alow you to open the apk file so you can edit what you want when your finished it will be ok to run on the phone just flow the popup and save new setting and mods when asked ie just don't close it until you get the popup

I think... Using 7zip you select view archive. Then modify.

I can extract the .apk
Bt how to merge that extracted files into a .apk file ?? 7zip cn't do it bro
When I've changed battery icons in the systemUI.apk I've used 7zip. But dont extract! View the archive, then drag and drop the files in making sure they're named the same as the ones they're replacing. Then when I backed out its saved
Sent from my LT26i using Tapatalk 2
My 7zip doesn't have any 'view archive' option bro
What's your version ???

You have to set permissions first to rwrr and then move it to system/framework.. Next time please don't make new threads.. Post here

Extracting the apk breaks the apk (Signature)
So to do this you need a computer. Can't do this on phone.
1st way:
-Open the apk with WinRAR (without changing the apk extension)
-Simply drag & drop the D.O.C's files in respective folders & click OK on prompt.
-Push into system with correct permissions.
2nd Way:
You have to decompile the apk, replace files, recompile, sign it & then push it into your system.
Cheers!

Try apk multitool... If you want to just make some images changes just extract it and make changes then pack it... If it needs xml changes then you will have to decompile and compile... These can be done with apk multitool...

I meant that don't rename the file to .zip. You can open .apk file by Right click > Open with > WinRAR. Now just drag & drop D.O.C.'s files in the RAR. Window in respective folders then click Ok.
