I have done it using this way:[Thanks to ali.maken
Using Root Explorer:
Extract the Zip to folder on your SD card.
1. Copy AccuweatherDaemon.apk, AccuweatherWidget.apk, AccuweatherWidget_MainFixed.apk, SecLauncher2signed.apk
from TWICS-cm9-aokp-slim.1.5.1\XTRAS\system\app
to /system/app
2. Copy touchwiz.xml, vtmanager_library.xml
from TWICS-cm9-aokp-slim.1.5.1\XTRAS\system\etc\permissions
to /system/etc/permissions
(There was already a features.xml in the destination folder on my device, If you don't have it there, copy it also).
3. Copy everything from TWICS-cm9-aokp-slim.1.5.1\XTRAS\system\framework
to /system/framework
4. Copy everything from TWICS-cm9-aokp-slim.1.5.1\XTRAS\system\lib
to /system/lib
Very Important: Set permissions for all these copied files to rw-r--r--
or in other words check owner,group and others under Read column, and check only owner under Write column. Uncheck all others.
Reboot and the Android System will update and you are good to go.
I have a non-supported rom for this addon. And that is how I got all the desired apps installed and working.

hy to all
Guys if you are new users and change themes files and remain safe then do like i describe other wise your Xperia arc can be on a boot-loop and restart it self
X theme pack the Original thread is here, you can download it from here
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1137329
Method how to apply..............
1) first copy all those files and keep a backup of them in SD card, which you are going to replace from your System folder in this TUTORIAL
so that in future you can resore the orignal one if you want
2) Requirments:
2.1) your phone should be rooted
2.2) busybox installed
2.3) root explorer installed
here are three kind of themes Blue, Green, Red
you can download them from original thread.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1137329
All the theme folder have three files inside them
a) framework-res.apk (you will find this file in system\framework)
b) SemcGenericUxpRes.apk (you will find this file in system\framework)
c) SystemUI.apk (you will find this file in system\app)
first of all copy all files into sd card
*** steps ***
1) first of all open root explorer open system and copy all your orignal three file you are going to replace and paste then in a folder in sd card, for example i make a new folder with the name (Orignal backup files )in my SD card and i paste my all orignal apps there you can do it by
go to system folder now you will see a boton on the top ( Remount as R/W ) tab on it now it will be like this ( Remount as R/O ) done, now you can copy your system apps
2) now go into SD card you will see a boton on the top ( Remount as R/W ) tab on it now it will be like this ( Remount as R/O ) done.
************Remember you shoud be tab this botton in both placec System folder and SD card***************
3) now copy framework-res.apk from theme folder you want to apply and paste it in system first now long tab on it, it will pop up a window tab on permissions you will see a box like this
............Read.....Write....Execute
User.......Yes.......Yes........-
Group......Yes........-..........-
Others.....Yes........-..........-
Select only those which i select in this Picture
now move it to system\framework
4) Do not exit your root explorer and do same with the file SemcGenericUxpRes.apk
copy SemcGenericUxpRes.apk from theme folder and paste it in system first now loang tab on it, it will pop up a window tab or permissions and set them like you did with first file
and move it to system\framework
***************** now exit Root explorer and reboot your device ********************
after phone is on go to root explorer and copy the last file name SystemUI.apk
again Copy it to system tab on it select the permissions like describe uper picture
and paste it to system\app
***************** now exit Root explorer and reboot your device ********************
Done
HOW TO GET BACK ON ORIGINAL THEME :
it is the same methord you did like uper but a little tricky
copy your origaln files now instead of custom theme files but in this order
now this time copy the third file first name SystemUI.apk
Copy it to system tab on it select the permissions like describe uper and paste it to system\app
***************** now exit Root explorer and reboot your device ********************
after on copy and paste the secound and first file named
SemcGenericUxpRes.apk
framework-res.apk
Copy it to system tab on it select the permissions like describe uper and paste it to system\framework
***************** now exit Root explorer and reboot your device ********************
Do same like this other wise you will break your phone software and it will go on a bootloop, i did it with my phone
then i again flash my phone with flash tool and update it through OTA... very loag method to do it...
takes a lot of time

A new look for neo v

Hello Guys!!!!!!!
Take a look at my neo v.
I've tweaked a few of my system files and this is the outcome.
You may try it out.
The rar file contains
1. DefaultThemes.apk
2. SystemUI.apk
3. Home.apk
Download both the rar files first and then extract them in your PC.
Then copy the files to your sd card and disconnect phone from PC.
You need root explorer for this to work.
Copy the files to /system
Then Change permissions to rw,r,r
Now move them to /system/app and overwrite the system apps
Reboot.
If you like it press the thanks button.
nice
i made my own themes too, actually 2

[Q] Can't install SystemApp APK (Galaxy Ace - Miracle v4 ROM)

I've installed the CyanogenMod 7.2 RC1 by vo-1 MIRACLE Edition V4 ROM
but I'm unable to install any additional system apps (e.g. sms/mms, camera).
The thread says, I have to use CWM. But when using the CWM App to install any APK, after confirming, I only get, that the APK wasn't installed.
I also used a few apk installers and tried to install with a root filebrowser. Doesn't work either.
The allowing-non-market-apps option is enabled.
What do I have to do? Clearing any caches with CWM?
Found it!
TUTORIAL 5: Recover System Apps than have been removed from V3
-- Place your desired app or apps on your sd-card
-- Use Root Explorer and copy them
-- Go to system\app and press the Mount R/W button on right top
-- Paste the app or apps you have selected
-- Long press what have you just pasted and set permissions to rw-r--r-- for each app
-- Reboot phone

I would make it simple for u..
1) Simply flash the ROM as said in the thread from where u downloaded
2) Download those additional zip files he attached (system apps) at the bottom of his post
3) Download & install ES file explorer on ur phone (in its settings customize it to allow it to make changes to root directory and enable up-to-root directory etc. and grant it superuser access when it asks)
4) Now extract whatever system app u require from that zip file (say mms.apk) on ur SD card
5) Now go to /system/app and paste this file over there
I recommended u for ES file explorer so that u wont have to change any permission at all..just copy & paste
NOTE: First move the original file u will be replacing in /system/app to some other place to avoid any future problem
-----------------------------------
Hit THANKS if i helped

[Q] Flashing files over stock recovery

Am i able to flash the google now file from here : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1747224
With the stock recovery tool and without root rights?
Sry, i know this is a noob question, but i realy tried to find it out my self. :angel:
As nobody else has responded to this I thought I'd try to help. It says in the post you linked to that it requires an AOSP based ROM which we don't have for the Tablet S.
I've got Google Now on my tab using the apk but you won't be able to do it without root.
you can not flash other rom before someone crack the recory mode
for the google now,it is only a apk,so you can copy it by root explorer
------------------------------
These are the current instructions and download:
1.) Rename GoogleQuickSearchBox.apk in system/app to GoogleQuickSearchBox.bak
2.) Rename the "signed_velvet-voicereco.apk" that you downloaded (link below) to: "GoogleQuickSearchBox.apk"
3.) Place the renamed .apk in the system/app folder and set the permissions to rw-r-r
4.) Reboot and enjoy!
OR
1.) Rename GoogleQuickSearchBox.apk in system/app to GoogleQuickSearchBox.bak
2.) Try to install the downloaded .apk off your sd just like any other .apk
post back if you successd.

[GUIDE] How to install custom bootanimations for any phone

DISCLAIMER: This requires root. If you dont have root, root your phone.
WARNING: This CAN damage your phone. Im not taking any resposibility if your phone gets bricked or if it breaks.
1. Download a root explorer like ES File Explorer.
(Link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.estrongs.android.pop)
2. Download your bootanimation from the internet (!Look for the right resolution!).
3. The file name of the bootanimation is always bootanimation.zip.
4. The directory of where the bootanimation.zip file is located, is always different, here is a list of some directorys:
/-system-media-bootanimation.zip
/-product-etc-media-bootanimation.zip
/-cust-preinstalled-public-media-bootanimation.zip
5. If you´ve found your bootanimation.zip (the original one) rename it to bootanimation.zip.bak
(basically a backup of your current bootanimation if you want to revert changes)
6. Now take the bootanimation you´ve just downloaded and copy it to the directory.
7. Change its permissions to: rw-r-r .
8. Now reboot your phone and see if it worked.
If you have any struggle doing this, feel free to ask.
