And yep here is how i did my username
We all have those secondary school days eh? Well that was the most awesome time during my college. And my pals refer to me as ayyu and i have kinda groupy back then along with 2 other friends. So in general 3-men ==== 3m
Oohhh. Long gone are those days. But soon after i finished college and joined university i got me the first touch flagship phone - the HTC Touch (Elf and later Elfin)
But i received the phone with sim locked...So like any other noob armored with the keyboard in an acer laptop back then, i went to war with google search. And i saw a forum called xda-developers
I thought what the heck of a name is that. But it was more important to unlock my sim, so i joined with the name ayyu3m. If it makes you guys jealous, i once worked with the renowned dsixda the creator of the android kitchen in forum xda which almost 99% of us use.
He was developing ROMs for the HTC Touch (Elfin) and i was up at some nights testing the builds and solved some bugs on me own too
Hope you all enjoyed my story which started about my username and ended with dsixda

[APP] Themed BlurDialer.apk

I present to you the BlurXtremeDialer
Ok everyone I finally completed my first themed apk. I am really proud of myself and really excited with what I came up with.
This project was started because of a requestt that Admiralj21 had. I told him I would take it upon myself and see what I could come up with.
Attached are the before and after screen shots. I have only tested this on my mopho.
To install:
1)Download attached apk
2)Using a file explorer (i.e. root explorer) navagate to where you downloaded the apk to. Select to move it.
3)Move file to system/app and change to r/w then paste
4)should automatically replace the stock blurdialer.apk
5)navagate to the BlurDialer.apk and set it's permissions to what's shown in the picture
6)reboot and enjoy
Credit where credit is due:
xtremekilla09 - for the icons and a base to work from. If it wasn't for him I wouldn't have been able to complete this. If you like the icons please donate to him. He is the original creator of the xtreme dialer
Admiralj21 - for coming up with the idea
Any questions please post in thread. I will try and post instructors on what I did to get to this point so that way anyone else trying to learn to theme might find it helpful. Also, I am by far not a true themer. I am just learning how to do this and this is the first thing I have truely themed, so I am really excited.
Any ROM dev's please feel free to use this in your roms. All I ask is that you make sure to give credit to xtremekilla09 and myself.
TEASER-I will be working on a full theme based off this dialer...stay tuned...please don't ask for ETA's as I am working 3 jobs and have a family to take care of so It could take me a little while.
Remember we all do this for fun but donations help to support theming and dev's. If you like my work please feel free to donate. Also don't forget about xtremekilla09. Also don't forget the thanks button
Mine to post theme instructions later

Seeing as they also dropped the Vivid source codes and it is very similar to the amaze I would think that the Vivid codes would be very close.

Open letter to Sony

I'm sorry to get off topic of the google play edition and all the greta things it's going to bring but you know what, **** you, Sony, where the hell is my flash??? This device is meant to be carried around, it's obviously meant to replace you're current phone as it is a phone, it's not a cheap device, costing as much (or more than at launch) as other high end phones and even cheaper ones don't skimp here. Where's the ****ing flash??
All of you who are about to give me **** about how great the sensor is, shut the hell up, you need a flash indoors. pictures look like **** if it's not well lit, and many, many, many people use it as flashlights and now it's a major inconvenience. Why did they do this??? How much did they save by not putting on a flash?? I don't love the battery life but I get it, they were keeping it as thin and light as possible for such a large phone, I would have preferred a little thicker with a decent battery but it's fine. could they really not fit a tiny little led light in there???
I'm sorry for being like this but i just saw an xperia z and z1 and it just pissed me off. Yes, I knew what I was getting when i got the phone, and it is a great phone but every time i take a picture indoors or need a flashlight the thought "**** you Sony" pops into my head.

No, it's like complaining that i bought a ferrari without an audio system. It's not absolutely integral and I knew what I was getting, Doesn't stop me from being pissed of at them for leaving out something very important for no reason.
The flash nor the battery life doesn't bother me. What bothers me is it broke in less than a month.

Broke in less than a mouth? Holy cow, how are your teeth? :laugh:
i'm looking into buying this device and truly i have been absolutely baffled at how a company on a phone with better specs than everyone else included a screen protector on every phone and didn't even build in camera flash?
the screen protector bothers me more than anything that if i buy it i'm going to drive myself insane trying to take it off and cleaning it perfectly?! thats ****ing ridiculous.
A/ I'm not sure Sony peruse these forums for open letters to them :silly:
B/ Only the "buyer" is at fault for their purchase decisions :silly:
C/ It's good to vent your frustrations sometimes, even if you've caused them yourself :thumbup:

What do you mean? Oh yeah post was edited. Thanks.
I wish it had a flash and I wish in general that the camera was better. But like others have said I knew what I was buying so I don't regret the decision.
Camera sucks. Worse camera I have seen in my life. It is so bad I don't even know why Sony added the camera to begin with. However every review and every article I read said the camera is utter Crap so I knew what I was buying. If camera was key for me I would avoid this phone like the plague but having a bigger screen is more critical for me

Take the Z1, for example. One of the biggest sensors in a smartphone camera and they release it with unpolished camera software. Pics are nowhere as good as they're supposed to be! :-\ (And yes, I speak from experience)

I wish it had a flash and I wish in general that the camera was better. But like others have said I knew what I was buying so I don't regret the decision.

Wow.... Whats with all the hate??
Guys, I'm not saying that I wouldn't have bought it, this thing is a beast! I love it, AND I KNEW WHAT I WAS GETTING. I'm just mad that Sony would jip everyone like this. They made a beast of a phone, with a hefty price tag, what in god's name possessed them to leave out a flash???

Yeah you don't have to say 'F**k Sony' if you have known about the device you've bought. It was your decision anyway to go here, so accept it as it is. If you receive it unexpectedly (like screen cracking with no reason) then please do an open letter. But in this case No point for complaining right now.
We all know that the camera sucks, but it's not that bad, it's decent for casual usage. No flash bugs me also but not that important, i can lit up the screen with Chrome white page and use it at night to lighten up the room.
you didn't know what you were buying? isn't that your fault?

No, it's like complaining that i bought a ferrari without an audio system. It's not absolutely integral and I knew what I was getting, Doesn't stop me from being pissed of at them for leaving out something very important for no reason.

but you should have thought if that 'audio system missing in Ferrari' is your top priority. if it was, you wouldnt have bought the ferrari in the first place... sorry, it all boils down to this... you should have known what you were getting into....

The flash nor the battery life doesn't bother me. What bothers me is it broke in less than a month.

it is your mistake, as what you are complaining is about a hardware compaonent, which has no solution.. if it was software, there would have been a solution

A/ I'm not sure Sony peruse these forums for open letters to them :silly:
B/ Only the "buyer" is at fault for their purchase decisions :silly:
C/ It's good to vent your frustrations sometimes, even if you've caused them yourself :thumbup:

LOL... yeah pretty much right.
The Ultra doesn't need a flash. seriously! Every image i have taken with a phone (even the Z1 and Nokia 41MP device) hasn't performed well at night using a flash. They just don't work well. I've never kept an image that ive taken using a flash. Even on my DSLR's..
So I'm fine without a flash.
Yes the 8MP camera should have been better, but it isnt. So hey.. all we can do is buy the QX10 and make a case that works...
Will the next alliteration of the Ultra have a better camera... god I hope so...

Having said that I find the video recording quality pretty good outdoors in natural light.

agree with that, I was expecting awesomeness... but it was about the same visual difference as my old S4. dissapointing.

yep agree. video recording looks fine. infact I like the colour reproduction. sound could be better, however for a waterproof unit, thats not going to happen... so I'm fine with that.
