Maybe it's a known way, but I didn't find it yet . It works great for me. Your device has to be rooted.
Zocker Tko mentioned in his thread a black theme on a german forum. There's a little tutorial on that site on howto replace the framework-res.apk using Root Explorer:
* make a backup of the original file
* Copy framework-res.apk to the SD card
* Mount /system in RootExplorer as "rw"
* Copy framework-res.apk to /system
* Set permissions for framework-res.apk to 644. See screenshot:

* Reboot your phone.

Can this work with 2.1?

the instructions are great, I actually use the "move" command after setting permission ( copy to /system, set permissions, then "move" to /system/framework = no auto-reboot )

For me.... (x10 mini with 2.1 Generic UK) with file "framework Black Build 2.0.A.0.504(111110).rar"
1) Copy framework res apk to sdcard:
adb push framework-res.apk /sdcard/framework-res.apk
2) Set permission (see first post) with rootexplorer on /sdcard/framework-res.apk
3) Copy with rootexplore YOUR OLD /system/framework-res.apk to /system/
3a)IMPORTANT!!! Rename framework copied in /system to framework-res.apka
3b)Copy new framework with RootExplorer from sdcard to /system
4) adb shell
5) su
6) mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock0 /system
7) dd if=/system/framework-res.apk of=/system/framework/framework-res.apk
If you see:
records in
xxxx records out
xxxx bytes transferred in xxxx secs (xxxx bytes/sec)
It's OK..
Your phone is rebooting, if you have any trouble after 2 minuts, don't reboot, with your hands, but:
adb shell
su
mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock0 /system
dd if=/system/framework-res.apka of=/system/framework/framework-res.apk
and you have the old framework again
My good log....
C:\android\tools>adb shell
$ su
# mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock0 /system
mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock0 /system
# dd if=/system/framework-res.apk of=/system/framework/framework-res.apk

17015+1 records in
17015+1 records out
8711993 bytes transferred in 4.007 secs (2174193 bytes/sec)
My bad log.... My phone with only Sonyericsson log, I DIDN'T REBOOT!!!!
C:\android\tools>adb shell
$ su
# mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock0 /system
mount -o remount,rw -t yaffs2 /dev/block/mtdblock0 /system

Nice! Did try it too. Had to reboot manually afterwards, but it worked fine! I'll edit the first post.
thanks to vippie and to dettofatto
its really a good way, i have tested it with root explorer on my x10i and it worked!
but i don´t know what is safer, to work with rooteplorer or with adb shell, when something goes wrong, because i had the problem on my x10i a few days ago. I changed my framework with adb and there was no transfer, it reboot independently and it stand only on the Sonyericsson log, so i had to reflash it. I dont know why, because after reflashing, the same custom framework changed with adb worked. The problem was i think, there was no transfer and the phone reboots independently. So i had no chance to reach the phone over adb shell because permission permitted.
and i know no risk no fun, hehe, sry for bad english
BTW: the "German" framework-res is the BOMB!
It looks really nice that framework from german site, but wich file do i need to install?
x10 mini pro-black-framework-res190810.rar (1,83 MB, 257x aufgerufen)
x10 mini-black-framework-res190810.rar (1,83 MB, 200x aufgerufen)

SystemApps-Black Build 1.2.A.1.174(280910).rar (7,10 MB, 81x aufgerufen)
SytemApps Black Build 2.0.A.0.504(101110).rar (4,68 MB, 114x aufgerufen)
framework Black Build 2.0.A.0.504(111110).rar (2,54 MB, 97x aufgerufen)
?
And do i need to install all the system apps also to get the phone black?
How do you EDIT the framework-res.apk? how do you zip the file?
Do you have to zip the folder (it creates a folder inside the zip)? Or do you have to select all the contents of the folder and then zip those?
i'd like to thank the OP for the method, worked without trouble on my mini pro (generic french 2.1)

bricked my x10 mini pro... after last command the phone started to restart and now it doesn't go past the "SONY ERICSSON" screen and doesn't turn on.. any solutions?
do u see the sony ericsson with logo or without logo?? means u passed the animation or not??? when u do this framework it will take more time then the normal reboot about 2-3 min.
How can I get, JUST your lock screen?

Thank's!
All credits go to pulpoff2 for this! This is not by me, I am merely the messenger. Only thing I did was to ask pulpoff for the files and a tutorial With his permission I will share it with you.
This will provide you with a fresh and unmodified 2.1-system, exactly like you would do the official update - only exception is that it is rooted. So all the apps and games of the official firmware are available and nothing else. You can remove the crap (like the games or timescape for example) by yourself after doing the steps below.
UPDATE:
There is a newer ROM by propc you can use instead of this one. Look here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=888427
-- NEW --
propc kindly provides us with a shellscript to automate the steps below. See here for the script and a short manual:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=10067921&postcount=120
If the script doesn't work for you or you prefer to do things the manual way, you may use the steps below.
Download these files:
x8-2.1rooted.img.yaffs.rar
and
ISO-8859-1__unyaffs-arm.rar
Also download the 2.1-firmware from here or here. Unpack it on your computer and delete the "system.sin".
Unpack "x8rooted.img", "busybox" and "unyaffs" to SDcard.
You need 1.6 with root on your phone. By the way, all the data on your phone will be lost after doing the following steps, so making a backup is advised.
Use "adb shell" to connect to your phone and become su:
Code:
su
Copy "busybox" and "unyaffs" to /data/local/tmp. (Pulpoff says you should copy to /sbin, but this requires remounting with busybox. I copied to /sbin, but I think /data/local/tmp should work just fine)
Code:
cd /data/local/tmp
cat /sdcard/busybox > busybox
cat /sdcard/unyaffs > unyaffs
chmod the files to make them executable:
Code:
chmod 755 busybox
chmod 755 unyaffs
EDIT: If you want to copy the files to /sbin (like pulpoff2 advises), you can do this OPTIONAL step:
EDIT2: It was confirmed that this is indeed not necessary!
Remount the root directory to make /sbin writable. Then copy the files over and change the working directory to /sbin:
Code:
[strike]
./busybox mount -o remount,rw /
./busybox cp -prf busybox /sbin/
./busybox cp -prf unyaffs /sbin/
cd /sbin[/strike]
Remount /system as writable:
Code:
mount -o remount,rw /dev/block/mtdblock0 /system
Switch to busybox shell:
Code:
./busybox sh
Remove /system (yes, really!). It's normal to get errors because of the "lost+found"-folders. Ignore the errors.
Code:
./busybox rm -r /system
Unpack pre-rooted image to system. It should output "end of image" if it finishes correctly.
Code:
./unyaffs /sdcard/x8rooted.img /system
Your phone won't boot anymore now and it will crash as soon as you try to use it - that's normal! Go to next step.
Just remove the battery and the usb-cable from the phone, then re-attach the battery. Flash 2.1-kernel (without system.sin !!) using the flasher-tool by Bin4ry. If the flasher gives you an error because of a missing "loader.sin" you can take this file from the 1.6-firmware. Refer to Bin4ry's thread to learn how to use his flasher and how to enter flash-mode on your phone.
The phone should now boot, although the first boot can take a little while. If you get into a boot-loop or you just see the white sony ericsson logo (not the green one after the animation) for several minutes, it probably didn't work and you have to start over again by flashing 1.6.
This was written as I remember how I did it by myself. It worked for me at first try! If it works for you, please click the thanks-button. It will make me feel better
After you have your nice rooted 2.1 you probably want to enable JIT for a nice performance boost.
But does it have root? Bad reading.

Absolutely. But no busybox. So if you plan to enable JIT, you have to copy busybox to /system/bin by yourself.

of course it is rooted.
now we know what to do with unyaffs.
2 things:
1. I've bought the phone with 1.6 android, but I was unable to root it with any method, then I've upgraded to 2.1 update 1. Is there any way to root it?
2. I have Hungarian language. Does it contain Hungarian language?

1: There is no way to directly root a phone with 2.1. You need to go back to 1.6, root it and then follow the above steps.
2: I guess so. As far as I know the firmware is the same for all countries.
Works like a charm! I removed the /system folder contents one by one though, using the method from the previous thread. Anyway, the first time I tried, unyaffs exited before extracting all the files (maybe the phone ran out of memory?). I didn't notice it and went on to flash the phone, ending up stuck at the Sony Ericsson logo. So, make sure that unyaffs reports that it has reached the "end of image" before moving on to the next step!
Thanks!!

This has nothing to do with App2SD. Also the ROM gets loaded from internal flash, not from sdcard. The result is the same as with the official update, but with root.
If you want to have /data on sdcard, use the modified chargemon or neptun2's method.

You should still be in "/data/local/tmp" as the working directory (check with "pwd"-command). If you followed the steps correctly, you should have a working busybox-file in there. So just type "busybox sh". If it looks like it does nothing, it's all right

That's way too long, something isn't right there. To start over again you have to flash back to 1.6.

Ok fellow MoPhos...here's our first Boot Animation & Screen thread.
I'm gonna be whippin some up over the next few days...enjoy!!
Must Be Rooted
There are Two Methods for Doing This
Root Explorer method:
1. Rename your boot animation to bootanimation (if it's not already)
2. Put it on your SD card
3. Open Root Explorer and copy bootanimation.zip to /system/media. This will replace the existing boot animation (might be a good idea to rename stock one to bootanimation.zip.bak...just to have a backup)
4. Set permissions for the new bootanimation.zip (long press the file, choose permissions...then set it to match the backup exactly)
5. Reboot your phone
ADB method:
0. might be a good idea to rename stock one to bootanimation.zip.bak...just to have a backup...see above)
1. Make sure you have downloaded android sdk
2. Put android sdk in C:\
3. Set the directory of command prompt to C:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools. Click here for a video tutorial.
4. Rename your boot animation to bootanimation and put it in C:\android-sdk-windows\platform-tools
5. Open cmd
6. Type in order:
-adb remount
-adb push bootanimation.zip /system/media/bootanimation.zip
-adb reboot

Need to have your system set to RW (Read - Write). I've found THE easiest way to modify things like this is to grab Root Explorer from the market. Easy as pie this route! Not sure, but ES File Explorer MIGHT allow you to do the same.
Other than that, I have yet to use ADB to mount as RW on this device. Might shoot Yay4juggs or mikeyinid a PM and see what ADB command they are using for that...if they have done so in their exploration.
mount the file system with
Code:
adb shell
su
mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mmcblk0p12 /system

I have a question. I have a boot animation and I just want to change some of the colors, but when I do and try to reload it It wont show. is there some kind of secret im missing.
I've made themes but never tried to mess with boot animations, any help would be greatly appreciated.

boot animation sound
Hi New to the photon 4G and rooting. I already rooted the Photon and want to install a boot animation. I already install the boot animation and it works perfect but I can not get the sound to work with animation. Is the photon capable of playing sound during animation. The animation I install is the one with the Killer-Droid-Destroys-Apple-boot-audio, it has the sound un a zip I have unzip in all the folder locations that I can think of. The only way I got the animation to work was to copy and paste to data\local. I have install the sound on the system\media, system\media\audio, in audio on all sub folders and at data\local folder. One thing I notices is the desc.text file has the following script:
480 800 200
p 1 0 part0
p 0 0 part1
I tried to write one with the following:
480 800 200
p 1 0 part0
s SPC_animation_final.mp3
p 0 0 part1
I got the Idea from another boot sound for the same boot animation, but that one has a script that will not load or play:
It plays on the Touch 4G
540 960 200
p 1 0 part0
s bootfx.mp3
p 0 0 part1
I tried it with the all spacings and no luck, I am hoping that somebody guides me in the right direction, or Am I out of Luck and the Photon will not play boot animation sounds.
Thanks for any help or advice.
Thank you for this! Very cool stuff! Got rid of that nasty Sprint animation Can't wait to see if more come along!
Here is one I built a while back and modded to use on Photon with multiple sounds (was curious if that was possible).
Also, the resolution is a little smaller than our screens since I made it for an older phone and because of that it doesn't fill up the screen on the Photon...maybe I'll redo it someday...
Use usual placement...bootanimation.zip in system/media and the 3 mp3 files in the mp3 files.zip go to system/media/audio/notifications.
Pic is sample of one frame in animation...

Haha, that's awesome. Played the sounds on my computer. While the first sound doesn't go with the LCars interface, the other two are pretty cool.
--EDIT--
Added this boot animation to my phone.
Does anyone know if the Photon Space Warp still exists, link doesn't work.

It seems as if the file hosting site is no long online. Would anyone be able to repost the space warp animation .zip?

It takes 26 pt space on the bottom of your screen, other than that, no changes.
Hence your effective screen dimens is 845-26 = 819 x 480 after installing

4. use root explorer to move it to /system
5. long press on it and chose permissions
6. Tick the following boxes
[*][*][-]
[*][-][-]

Known bug, no solution. Problem only cosmetic, everything works fine
Ok ,working fine on 4.0.4 stock rom .
If you dont like ADB command stuff ,just download the onscreekeys 4.0.3 zip and replace (just drag and drop) the 4.0.4 framework-res.apk file onto it in the system/framework folder and then install that zip with CWM. It worked for me.
With apex launcher i have no medium Icon issues in the low bar.
Thanks!!!
I had a rooted neo v with bootloader locked with android 4.0.4 4.3.1,which file did i need to download correctly as i had a bootloop after replacing the apk.....

During your bootloop, enter recovery, wipe cache and dalvik-cache. and then reboot!
If still no joy, restore framework-res.apk from your backup via adb in recovery!

Changing colors is easy, changing order a little bit more complicated..

Hey guys,
I know A LOT of the new users want to use mods and theme things now that they are newly rooted on ND7 4.4.2. So I was trying to think of a way to make it easier to do so, one being deodex. For us who are unlocked, we develop and theme mostly on deodex system's. So lets get to the guide.. This will make all your apps in system/app and system/priv-app Deodex, therefore you can theme them and head over to my Mods Thread and take advantage of them!
Prerequisites:
PC
Android SDK and/or ADB
USB cable
Patience
First make sure you have USB Debugging enabled on your device (Go into About Device in Settings, Find Build Number, Hit it 8 times until you unlock developer settings. Go into Developer Settings..Scroll down.. Enable USB debugging) Let make sure ADB is setup correctly and working.. Open a cmd prompt where you installed ADB (If SDK it should be C:\SDK\platform-tools\) type:
Code:
adb devices
Your return should look something like this:
{
"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"
}
If it does NOT look like this you need to either enable USB debugging, Grant the PC access to the phone or look up some guides on getting ADB started.
So once we know ADB works, lets download the zip I provided with the apps. These are pulled straight from ND7 Stock tar and Deodex by me, there should be no issues. I want you to extract them to your PC. Now lets make some folders on your internal sdcard(Use a root explorer/file explorer):
Folder names:
deodex_app
deodex_priv-app
Once you made the folders go ahead and copy the apps in their correct directory. App goes in deodex_app and Priv-app goes into deodex_priv-app.
When this is finished its time to start the ADB commands..
So we should already have our device connected and adb working with the return device serial number. Lets execute some cmds. After each line hit ENTER:
Code:
adb shell
su ([COLOR="Red"]MAKE SURE YOU GRANT SU PERMISSON!![/COLOR])
stop
mount -o rw,remount /system/ /system/
cp /sdcard/deodex_app/* /system/app/
rm /system/app/*.odex
cp /sdcard/deodex_priv-app/* /system/priv-app/
rm /system/priv-app/*.odex
mount -o ro,remount /system/ /system/
exit
exit
adb reboot
**BE SURE TO PAY ATTENTION TO YOUR COMMANDS...SPELLING AND SPACES ETC..
Once rebooted your device should update all apps..You should be Deodex and ready to do whatever your heart desires!!
Happy Theming! Any ?'s just post and ask! Want to learn how to Theme??? Head to this THREAD!!
PS: You want frameworks as well? Do this:
Download this zip, extract it, make a folder on your sdcard: deodex_frame. Copy unzipped contents to that new folder. Start ADB:
Code:
adb shell
su
stop
mount -o rw,remount /system/ /system/
cp /sdcard/deodex_frame/* /system/framework/
rm /system/app/*.odex
mount -o ro,remount /system/ /system/
exit
exit
adb reboot
Should update and be good to go! Enjoy!
@KennyG123 would mind making this sticky?? THANKS!

So do you copy the the contents of deodex_app/app to deodex_app on the phone or do you copy the app folder itself to the phone

Unzip it and there should be a /app and /priv-app folder.. Make a folders called deodex_app and deodex_priv-app on your sdcard.. open those folders and copy the contents(the actual apps) inside of those folders

Could you just copy and paste using a root explorer as well

Nope..
Don't know what I did wrong but I'm stuck at the verizon boot logo...
Only thing I did different was created folders on internal storage on pc instead of using root browser on phone.
Nice write up lacoursiere18, worked like a charm. :good: thanks for the deodexed files
got the apps and priv-apps deodexed fine but, when I get to the part for framework the copy goes fine but when I do rm /system/app/*.odex it fails and says no .odex found. Should it be rm /system/framework/*.odex ??? Seems to have worked, don't see any odex files. Thanks for the write up!
