any help guys ?

Hmmm...decompile framework-res.apk first before you can edit any xml files using Notepad++....if you don't decompile it then you will see those kind of xml like on your screenshot....
for compiling and decompiling you better use TickleMyAndroid....its good for beginner or even expert user cause its the most easy tool to use....

On-Screen buttons [Home, Options, Back key] in ICS (.431)

Good day!
Guys is it possible that Xperia 2011 devices running ICS .431 can also have the on-screen buttons like the one in Samsung Google Nexus running ICS?
here:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I dont know if there is a thread or post here that correspond to mine, but I'll gladly appreciate someone that can point that thread to me. Im just curious about how this buttons looks like when put in Xperia devices. Thnaks in advance.
Long live XDA!
You should try GO Launcher EX, it's free on Play Store :B
Or maybe you would like to try MOAL

Hi.
This MOD was in a REAL CUSTOM ROM R5.1 ICS but I have no idea whether it will run on STOCK ROM, as some stock applications do not work to me at the ROM.
Download the package REAL ICS r5, extract:
settings.apk
and replace this in /system /app
I use ICS R5.1 REAL the small cosmetic changes, and it looks great
This is not accurate but it looks good
i love dis too...... +1

I think you need to add modified DefaultThemes.apk aswell...
check this thread, it might help you...
i didnt find nothing... and what about the "grey-noise" theme? thx
Oh please, i want the same things, hope that some dev port that defaultthemes.apk and the settings.apk
Maybe this can help you (i havent tried it, so dont blame me if it doesnt work )

Adding Wifi Location Based on your Settings.apk

Hi friends and visitors xda. Well I'll pass on to you a bit adding apks in your Settings. I tried to do the best possible way to understanding all, hope you like it and read it carefully. Let's start
Requirements:
Virtuous Ten Studio
Apktool
Install Framework-res.apk
Installation SemcGenericUxpRes.apk
This tutorial works on Custom roms and stock roms based firmware 587. Devices MDPI and HDPI! just what we need to have is a little attention to codes in public.xml file
In my opinion the VST and most complete program for editing in general .. then the procedure was done for him!
*Decompile your Settings.apk
*After decompile ... check the folder >>>> res / values ​​/ strings.xml <<<< edit it. See the image below
*Add the code below to your Strings.xml.
<string name="loc_based_wifi">Location Based Wi-Fi</string>
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
*Now open Public.xml is add the following code below
<public type="string" name="loc_based_wifi" id="0x7f0b0656" />
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
*Then open the folder and xml file settings_headers proucure the open and see where the code will be added below!
<header android:icon="@drawable/ic_wifi_lock_signal_4" android:title="@string/loc_based_wifi">
<intent android:targetPackage="com.sonyericsson.android.locationbasedwifi" android:action="android.intent.action.MAIN" android:targetClass="com.sonyericsson.android.locationbasedwifi.LbwPreferenceActivity" />
</header>
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
*Now place the images in the following folder drawable-MDPI
*Once added the images in drawable-MDPI folder ... You will compile your Settings.apk according to the program you are using for editing. In my case as I use the VST I compile my file in Build all.
Compiling ...
If all goes well will compile the following message appears telling you that everything went well and without errors!
Screenshot Xperia Mini Pro
Installation mode
Install with the flashable zip apk placing the Wifi Settings and location-based app folder in the zip with Root explorer or giving the permissions [rw-r--r--]
Ready. I hope everything goes well in the settings of you ... look carefully the hexadecimal code in public! is and of course, give me a Thanks kkkk

lolipop framework v1.1

this framework is based on xxana2 and will work on above(swap supported ones).i dont know about lower versions.i made it from stock deodex.so it should not be working on odexed systems.ok now to the good part.
Lolipop framework v1.1
yep,you heard it right.its lolipop framework for gt s5282 and 100% stable.test it yourself.(i have not changed the buttons).
its a cwm flashable file.
Procedure
go to cwm recovery
install zip
install zip from extSdCard
reboot
