Okay, so after flashing the new Bionix-V ROM, i have been customizing it to fit me.
One thing I have been dying to get was the skinned Gingerbread keyboard. The Blackout Green one in particular. Found here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=9814026&postcount=169
There is a flash-able .zip and an .apk file. I have tried both methods and still no luck. I followed the instructions and can't seem to get it to work.
I know that the Bionix-V ROM comes with the stock gingerbread keyboard, do I have to delete that one to install the other one? I'm just worried that it will get deleted and I cannot re-install and.
Thanks in advance!
I believe you do have to delete the original first but before you do copy it to ur sd just in case it doesn't work. Don't forget to reboot after you remove and install

Yes. The next update I post (at least for my mods of them) will automatically remove the original before applying the update.
Sounds good, I will delete the original Gingerbread Keyboard.apk and flash your mod. Will keep a look at your post for the update!
Thanks guys!

I released an updated Blackout Green yesterday in the original MTM thread. It's near the end. You can also just find the Gingerbread Blackout link in my signature and find it there.
Just starting work on the rest of the colors as it appears no issues have been found with what little changes I have made.
Just an fyi... im using the blackout red gb kb... i just went in with super manager and renamed the stock one and then pushed the blackout (just to make sure if it didnt take i wouldnt lose the stock one too) and all is good and this keyboard is SWEET
Since nobody else posted one, this is my attempt at an ICS theme for rooted stock Arc ROM.
The theme has been tested and is working on version 4.0.1.A.0.283 and 4.0.2.A.0.42, and reported working on .58, however as always, install it at your own risk.
MASSIVE thanks to XperienceD, we now have a working release 5 with CWM installer! I did almost nothing on this release, so all credit to XperienceD on getting this one out there!
Please note, this is a framework THEME file. For the launcher (including icons) and ICS style lock screen, use LauncherPro and Widget Locker. PLEASE don't post here complaining that it hasn't changed your launcher icons.
New in Release 5:
Volume/Progress bars now ICS style, thanks to XperienceD.
ICS boot animation added.
Easy ClockworkMod installer
How to install:
1. Download and install the SE Extreme Tweaker tool from HERE.
2. Following the instructions, install the ClockworkMod Recovery for your Arc.
3. Place the theme ZIP file somewhere on your SD card, root directory is always an easy one.
4. Reboot into CWM recovery by powering up and repeatedly pressing volume down.
5. TAKE A BACKUP! I am not responsible for bootloops so always take a backup just in case
5. Once backed up, select Install ZIP from SD Card, and chose ZIP to install.
6. Navigate to the theme ZIP file, select install, once installed, reboot.
7. Enjoy! (Hopefully)
Note: For the ICS style gradient background, apply the Onyx theme.
Anyway, hopefully this will work fine for everyone as it is.

I was thinking about this. Basically what has happened is I got hold of all the theme resources I could and began porting them over. I'm really REALLY new to this so I'm not familiar enough with how it works to feel comfortable doing a lot of XML editing so that would involve editing over 100 images, which I don't have time to do.
This leads me on to something I was going to say anyway. If someone more experienced than me at this wants to have a go at the battery without %, and also getting the volume/progress bars to the new ICS style then please do!
I can supply resources for the progress bars but I have no idea how to go about editing the XML so it reads from the images as opposed to just the colours.
Thanks

It can't be flashed via recovery, should have said that, sorry! Are you definitely moving framework-res.apk and SemcGenericUxpRes.apk to Framework, and SystemUI.apk to the App folder?
yeah bud, status bar changes and so does tick boxes but nothing else, i am using arc s firmware .....

Thats really weird, the other icons and most other things like that are stored in the SystemUI.apk, but there are resources scattered across all 3 files so it's weird that the status bar changes but nothing else does. Are all the other resources the stock Sony Ericsson ones?
yeah just stock firmware apart from dooms kernel

It may have something to do with using the Dooms Kernel? I don't know how the resources and framework are laid out on that, I've literally only tested it on completely stock firmware except for root.

You need to have a themed launcher to make the icons.
The flash zip doesn't change the icons
Help me :
Can someone upload the stock
1. Android.policy.jar
2. Framework.jar
Its from /system/framework
Please

no man,
the icons in the launcher should be changed by urself,
if u want to change the icons, u should use costum launcher (launcherPro, adw ex, goLauncher, etc) that can be themed ICS,
u can find the theme at market

Thanks in Advance!

First of all I dont think that changing boot animation is possible on stock roms ..impossible on stock Samsung roms ...so.flash a custom rom .then download absolute system root tools from market ..it allows you to download and install boot animations...hit the thanks button if I helped ..

when i use my stock ROM 2.3.4 there is one file named bootanimation.zip in /system/media . its possible to change it.
but now, I use gingerbread 2.3.6 and i can't find that file.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
UPDATE
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now i can change may boot animation. its easy dude. just download ur favorite boot animation and place it in /data/local
Sorry for any mistake, my English is not so good. After reading theese few posts i searched in my Galaxy Ace (no brand Italy; stock ROM GingerBread 2.3.6 build XWKT7) and i tried to put in data/local a custom bootanimation.zip. After that i rebooted it and there was no change. It displayed me its stock bootanimation. Where do I have made a mistake?
Thank you, J-Hope.
U need to overwrite original bootanimation.zip file
Sent from my GT-S5830 using XDA App
Well, I searched in data/local and also in system/media and I don't have any. I have .qmg files on my 2.3.6 stock ROM... If you need some screenshots just tell me. Thank you, J-Hope
Sent from my Millenium Falcon using XDA-app
first make sure that you dont have any files in media file except audio if you have others delete them and now copy any bootanimation.zip to your media file and it will work
Just copy/replace in system media And You Can Use that
So sad men, it doesn't work. The only problem is that I haven't got any bootanimation.zip to replace: I have 2 files bootanimation.qmg and samsungloop.qmg.
I've tried to move everything except audio and put a custom bootanimation.zip in system/media but it boots with a black screen and I can't see the bootanimation. Maybe it doesn't work on Italian stock 2.3.6.
Thanks for your help, again.

Hello,
Could anyone here pull from me the MIUI SMS application from MIUI ROM in order to install it on ICS?? i really like so much the app!
I tried to use GO SMS with a theme but it isn't the same thing like in MIUI
Help! and thnx so much
I am 99% positive it won't work, but if you feel like trying just download a MIUIv4 rom (doesn't matter for which phone) and use a file manager to extract it. Its located in system/app

Hello All,
I've been looking for a way to install the S3 weather Widget onto my Note I717. I'm currently using UCLF6 (official ICS) rooted, but I cant find anything. A CWM zip would be awesome. I tried extracting the apk file from a custom rom and pasting it into my /App folder but it would crash when I tried pasting the file. Any help or info would be awesome!
Thanks in Advance!

Try this, it applies most of the GS3 stuff to the Note.
Ahhh poo.... PhMod doesn't work on the official rom.
I want one too. Thanks
Thanks for the replys, I would really like to stay on the stock Rom (Not use Goldie) but I would like to use the S3 Widget. I did find a post that flashed the S3 touchwiz but it wasn't for the Note I believe it was for the SGS2. Not sure if it would work, I guess I could Nandroid backup and reflash it and see if it works.....when I attempt it i'll let you all know. If I could extract the S3 touchwiz and widgets from a custom rom like "objection" or "Goldie" I would..but I just dont know how. As I said before I extracted the Weather/Clock Widget from the custom objection rom and placed it in the /system/app folder and rebooted but it didn't show up in the Widget selection....if theres a step i'm missing i'd gladly listen to suggestions. Maybe adding a file to the /lib folder or something? I'm willing to try anything. Thanks again for your responses.
I took Asus weather widget realized from the hybrid rom and use it on pretty much every other rom. The way I did it is download zip and extract it. Go to /system/app/ and look for the widget apk. Copy and paste it to /system/app/ and set permission to rw-r--r-- and check the drawer for the widget. I don't know if that helps or not.

I apologize if this has been answered. I've searched in the i717 forums but can't seem to find a straight answer. I'm using flappjaxx's latest with the touchwiz ux launcher (flashed through the OTA tool). I'd like the accuweather widget as well from the S3. Is this available to us? If so, can someone give me a link to one that works? thanks!
