None that i know of. Maybe with some apk editing we can fix that, but i don't know. Ray's screen is too perfect that all the text is too small..

Hi all. I am really excited to install custom ROM in other thread. But I don't want to lose my apps and settings. Is there a way to backup and restore them after flashing? You know, need not an hour to do that. Thanks.

You can download an app from the market such as titainium backup or my backup, that will back up all your apps and data, once you install your rom download the app from the market again and restore. All of your apps will be restored
There are a few paid and none paid apps in market, I use paid version of titainium backup but i have used my backup in the past

if your phone is rooted, you can edit file /system/build.prop. at string ro.sf.lcd_density=240 (9 from bottom) and change density to 260 or 280, than ALL text elements will slightly bigger. need reboot after changing.
Well frankly i don't think the messaging fonts are smaller... It's quite comfortable...
That lcd build.prop method was very common in Sensation section... but there we used to decrease it to 204 and with that you get 5x5 application drawer inn HTC sense...,don't know how it will behave here...
secondly, users reported that some market applications show incompatible if you change lcd density...

Hi Gents
I have my phone rooted with unlocked bootloader and i use stock rom .42 with Doomkernel.
Now when I connect my Ray to PC, PC Companion says that new firmware is available for my phone (.62). Do you know what would happen if I would start updating through PC Companion? Brick? Loosing root? Nothing? Simply updating? What is your oppinion about that? Thanks for support.

ICS for Xperia Ray
HI Guys,
I am planning to buy Xperia Ray, but i didn't find any ICS custom ROM for this.
so here are my questions:
1. Will Sony Ericsson port ICS on this phone ?
2. Is there any ICS custom ROM for this set ?
Thanks in advance.

Changing launcher
hey guys,
i´m having some trouble with changing the launcher components....
according to THIS:

i already did it some time ago...but now i can´t get it to work again and this file doesn´t exist anymore
my steps are:
- open .apk in betterzip
- take out some .png and change it
- replace the .png
- save the .apk
- sign it
- install
- error, app not installed
i did some searches and found something about deleting the files of the "META-INF" folder, but that didn´t work either
i guess it´s related to the launcher not just being a launcher but also a system-file or something
so...what am i doing wrong?

Just put the apk in system/app change permission to rw-r-r and restart.
you mean copy / paste with a file manager or install??
and why change the permission? the original launcher has other permissions (i´m just curious)
/e: oh ****, it worked
thx man!
can it do it the same way when modding the framework-res.apk?

Did you set correct permissions? Maybe that's the reason.

Yeah... It's a tricky issue. Since device is odexed, all customizations don't work.
Eg. : if you replace only the battery icon/any icon in notification bar by a flashable zip....notification will disappear and will cause lag and graphics disorder in the device.
Solution :
Flash the original system ui.apk. Mere replacing the apk and setting permission might not work.

Isn't it flashing systemui.apk and replacing it, setting permission works same?
During flashing you extract to /system/app and set the permissions.

100% same. But during live replacement it will end up in a tornado of fc on system ui.apk. So I prefer flashing system stuffs to avoid "this and that" fc.
I accidentally deleted All the default themes from my Xperia s (the ones you choose under settings, display, theme) .
Now I just get a back screen there.
Can I just copy the themes as apk back into system? I don't have recovery so I can't flash.
Where can I get those themes? I can only use mobile to search xda and I can't find anything.

Yes,you can just copy and use them.
You can obtain it from ftf file.or ask someone to upload them.

Sorry but still not resolved, and icons in the notification bar are not modeled with this latest version .
Thank you for all the trouble you give yourself to find a solution .
Everything working fine on my LG G3 D855 international with ANHD 9.3, perfect theme, will stick with it for some time.
My problem maybe comes from my rom then, not the theme. I am under Darknight 5.5 d855.

OK, I flashed the theme over cloudy 2.2 and the problem starts again. I can get an app to update/install, but I have to go into recents, kill all apps. Then when I open playstore again, that app will finish. I have to do this with each app.-Chris, on a D850
Same here with play store. CloudyG3 2.2 and D855.

Orange Text
You changed the text color on the separate theme to orange. Is it possible to get a copy of the theme with the white text like the original DarkKnight rom/theme? Just wondering....BTW- I really appreciate all the effort you have been putting out trying to find a solution to this problem- Chris

If we can grab apk to convert to english language for mi watch.
You need /system/framework together with the apk in /system/app to properly convert a system app to installable APK.
News?
On my side, i just find how to change the server location with the original Miwatch/MiHomeApp. Probably a configuration file to modify on the phone ?

Sure of that because the mi home app on the watch can work without the phone connection. A direct wifi could be used...
