[Tutorial][MDPI] make your lockscreen look like AOSP ICS - Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A

This tutorial is adapted from Arc forums originally by jjdoctor. i just resized PNG for mdpi device. (pls delete this thread if it's against the rules or repeated)
0. make a nandroid backup.
1. open framework-res.apk using winrar / 7zip etc
2. copy and overwrite the png from attached zip file to /res/drawabale-mdpi
3. change the new framework-res.apk file permissions to 0644(like the old file's permissions)
4. replace the old framework-res.apk with the new one (the result will be a boot loop if you replace it with wrong permissions)

is there somebody who can make this as a flashable zip for .431

that's pretty easy but not recommended coz it can affect themes andother framework mods and make some troubles. it's just a simple copy-paste stuff.

i get an error, because i don't have busy box

try this
install via cwm

Thanks for sharing, working on Live with walkman stock rom :good:

thnx I9103, works perfectly on sk17i .431 :highfive:

it has nothing to do with busybox

i can't make a make a nandroid backup because i don't have busy box

then how did you install CWM recovery??
how do you dare installing mods without nandroid?!!!!!!

i installed cwm with recover x, and custom apps sometimes i flash it and sometimes i do it with root explorer only when i need a app instead of the whole .zip easy as hell dude

Is it work for stock ICS .587??

it works on every rom/firmware which has the path i mentioned including .587

Sony Panorama [DEVS HELP]

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1134048
it's simple
we need someone to point the flashing file to the right direction.
then post it here or in the original thread and we can get the Sony Panorama app, i know alot of us have been missing the panorama feature on the camera app in CM7 and MIUI
I tried flashing with SGS I9000's zip but it did not work.
any one????????
I flashed this a few days ago....worka flawlessly! I'll upload the files in a few minutes.
First flash the zip file in CWM recovery, reboot.
http://db.tt/81c4dpy
Then install the apk as you would install most apk files, use any file manager.
http://db.tt/QoBWTJ4
I'm on CM7 Nightly 31....I'm not the original modifier, just thought it was cool so I kept the files
The UI is much nicer because it's transparent over the camera view. You can choose the direction of the picture, the slower you turn, the better the image quality will be. The pictures were larger, but I resized them.

Is the app not installing?
Yea fixed permission and still nothing
Did the zip file flash without any hiccups?
the zip flash went smooth
then i got the other apk out of zip and put it on sd card
tried to install normally, did not work
tried putting it in system/apps and then installing, did not work
how did you install the app?
I simply opened it with file manager and it installed....maybe file permissions?
Works great thanks

This is what i mean, they look 3D like, and with Swiftdroid they look just like to be plain, not 3D.
So i extracted the ones from Quarkx 2.1 rom, put them in framework-res.apk and put it via adb on my phone -> boot looping.
So, how can i put them on my phone and change the Lockscreen Tabs
Widgetlocker has the 2.1 style tabs

If you want ill make it for you with a update.zip because it sounds like you have permission problems.

You need to edit framework-res.apk inside rom you are currenty using. Copy tabs images from 2.1 framework-res.apk than open your framework-res.apk in Win-RAR or something like this program and paste images to replace it. Than just replace framework-res.apk
= Boot Loop too
OMG give me just framework-res.apk file inside your ROM ;]
here you are http://michabilbang.de/framework-res.apk
Use NinjaMorph and replace the desired files
Simple and easy !!!
You can get something like this
First try this:
Code:
http://www.multiupload.com/SO1CZAO12C
only when first will not work try this: (rename signed-framework-res.apk to framework-res.apk ;])
Code:
http://www.multiupload.com/NPPRC1Z6WB
first one worked, thx
but needed to increase system space a bit.

For RC3, working for me.

frndz when i tryed to install CM7 on my xperia with CWM its will show this error my neo was rooted and bootloader unlocked can you plz trouble shoot this..? []
First install Stock GB ROM(either with flashtool or with SEUS)
Then install FXP kernel inside the zip file.
Boot into CWM recovery wipe everything EXCEPT system(and sdcard ofcourse)!
If you wipe system you will get that error again!
Install the zip and you re ready!
In simple words FXP ROM checks your build.prop. If you don't have the build.prop it wants(stocl or FXP) then it won't flash the ROM!
There is also an another way by editind the script inside the zip but I don't know what you have to edit! :/

Open the above archive, then open your zip file that you are installing and drag and drop the build.prop to system folder to replace the original file.
Similarly drop the updater script in META-INF\com\google\android and replace it.
Hit THANKS if it helps you.

Or point me in the right direction which I can learn to do it myself, and probably upload it for sharing if successful.
Thanks in advanced!
Use 7-zip. Here's the lowdown-
1. Get the required current battery files by copying your phone's SystemUI.apk (present in /system/app) using Root Explorer or a file explorer which has root access to your PC and then extracting using 7-zip. You will find the batt files in the res->drawable-hdpi folder
2. Once you have flashed the toggle zip, copy your SystemUI again to your PC.
3. Open the SystemUI.apk file (DO NOT EXTRACT IT)
4. Navigate to the res->drawable-hdpi folder. Just drag the previous batt files to the archive and replace them
5. Copy the modified SystemUI.apk back to your phone with the permissions rw- r- r-
As usual, I am not responsible if any derp happens with your phone but if you follow the instructions nicely and carefully, you should be OK. Make sure you keep a backup of the SystemUI.apk and if possible and recommended, keep a Nandroid backup that you can fall back on in case of problems.

"Sony Sketch" Font

Well, I've been searching the name of this font and I found it today:good:
Root is needed to copy the fonts to system/fonts. I use ES File Explorer so I can't give precise instructions on how to install them with Root Explorer. They change all the Fonts, including most apps. (Download Attached)

Before installing these fonts you must make a backup of the fonts folder (the entire folder), then if you no longer want the fonts just copy-paste the fonts folder. I don't know whats wrong with ICS but the fonts can only be changed once or twice, then they no longer change so make a copy of the folder before installing these.
nice share tnx
Using this app would be alot easier to switch between fonts if interested
i really love in it!
thx ma8!
great work buddy
great!
Thanks Buddy:laugh:
..been hardly Looking For this!
I Use iFont application, it got an option to install custom fonts.
Download the Font you wish to have and Copy to your SD card.
Now open iFont >> Custom >> click "Click this" and browse the fonts you like to install.
I feel this way is simple. The bad news, it was free but now its paid version
Hy! Thanks for sharing this... but after installing the font I am unalble use use whatsapp and opera mini.. please help
