All credits go to zdzihu for making this great tool for us!
Manual install:
Installation is easy and simple. All steps, however,
should be done exactly as described or else you will need to
reflash your device (in case of mistake).
Requirements:
Root Explorer 2.12.x
X10 mini/mini pro rooted
Iridium Carbon Theme_pack (attached at the end of the post)
Installation procedure:
Step 1:
Copy android.policy.jar, framework.jar, framework-
res.apk files into your (/sdcard).
Step 2:
Launch Root Explorer and browse to the location of the theme
pack files. Press menu and then "Multiselect". Then
select the files and press "copy".
Step 3:
Browse to /system. Press Mount R/W tab. Then press
paste.
Step 4:
You're in /system. Select android.policy.jar file.
From the pop-up menu, choose permissions and set them
according to the screenshot:
Step 5:
We follow the exact same procedure to set the permissions for
the framework.jar and framework-res.apk files.
CAUTION:It is very important to set
proper permissions (as shown on the screenshot) to all of the three
files, or else you will end up with a bricked phone
Step 6:
Once we set the permissions, our files are ready to move on /system framework. Press menu and then "
multiselect" (we are on /system).
For once again choose android.policy.jar, framework.jar
, framework-res.apk and press move.
Step 7:
Go to /system/framework and press
paste.
Reboot the device in order to complete the installation (It will take a few minutes, more than usual so please DON'T PANIC!).
A few screenshots:
The theme_pack.zip also includes three wallpapers, made exclusively for this theme and also a dock and a "home" icon for Launcher Pro to make it look like this:
In case you want to restore the stock theme of
Sony Ericsson, follow the exact same procedure, but use the stock theme files.
I have attached them at the end of the post, in case you don't have them.

Thanks for your good job.

I'm not quite sure if i'll post a version with the original transitions.
The keyboard n the screens is included inside the theme but its the dialer's keyboard and not the one used by the messaging app.
In a future update i'll modify the conversations.apk in order to have the same keyboard in both dialer and messaging app.

Its easy!
You just have to install my theme, then install Launcher Pro Plus and change the dock and the app drawer icon with the ones, provided with the theme!
The widgets are: clockr, battstatt and OneSeven, you can get them from the market!
