How about if you combine the transisition effect with this nexus theme ? I think it would be great...
Nice and great work ....thanks
I tried the gallery and calendar only, but those are much more better that the original X10mini ones..
Can you post more screenshots ? I'm intereset how the system apps looks like (messaging, dialer, ...) and how it works.

Can you make exactly the same theme with black colour? I think it would be amazing
I love the stock look but the lock screen seems wrong.
The sliders in the lock screen seem wrong in size (smaller than normal android) and they are cutoff. Are there any plans to fix/update/improve the theme?
The rest is just perfect, I love the theme.
Thanks a lot!!

No there is no fix. Its the stock SE lockscreen. I only can changed the PNGs.
But you can take widgetlocker lockscreen, it has stock look.

Is my phone bricked?
I moved the framework to system/framework/ and while it was pasting it the phone restarted and now i'm stuck with the SE logo. I only had the battery charged 20%, do i have to reflash my U20i?
if it hangs on the se logo for a while you have to do a reflash with seus (sony ericsson update service).
ps: did you change the permission of your apk before you copied it to system/framework?
Yes , I did ,i had the black theme before and i set the permissions to 755. It happened to me every time i tried to install a framework through Root Explorer, i reflashed my phone 5 times since 30th Of November. It is a painful process to do that through the flasher tool provided by Binr4y and install a root,app2sd,configure the apps,enable JIT, change VM heapsize etc. . And my phone doesn't ring anymore or work in portrait , i dropped it on the ground.
Thanks. Amazing!
i think, the handling of rootexplorer is very easy if you do that in a right way.
copy the apk to /system, then change the permission to 644 then move the apk to /system/folder_you_want. very easy
I am unable to install the Music Player. Can you tell me how to Uninstall the Music Player that is already installed?
When i try to install the Music.apk that you have provided, it says that the application already exists.
Please help me out.
?? the rootexplorer ask you if you want to override the existing file. click OK.
but before you can copy anything in /system/... you have to mount it with the small button at the top of rootexplorer. click mount r/w and than you can copy your file in /system/... and override the old one
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=853938 there you find a manual for using rootexplorer

Hi,
This is a tutorial to explain how to make a theme with some APKs modified.
Note : This HOWTO is for people who have a minimum knowledge in informatic, i will not answer to questions like "what's a CMD?" etc.
FACULTATIVE STEP
The first thing we have to do, it's set up a working folder, this will help you to make your theme easily
Create a folder "Skin blabla", like you want.
After, create 3 folders like this screen :
{
"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"
}
We will make a backup of ALL APKs of your tattoo (if you do a wrong modification & you brick), make a copy of this backup into "Modded APKs" (there will be the modified APKs), and "Decompressed" will be the folder which has all PNGs.
SOME EXPLICATIONS
The only risk is Android, all APKs which are using on android have to be signed, if one of your APKs isn't signed, you will semi-brick your Tattoo and have to go on recovery and push the original APK.
Note : You have to have (woh) a custom recovery, if you don't and you semi-brick your tattoo, the only way to restart it is the GOLDCARD.
So, the only way to keep your APK signed is to use the drag&drop.
FIRST STEP : Backup
Connect your device. (with USB debug)
Open a CMD.
(We say your skin's folder is on c:\Skin to make it simple, if you choose an other destination, change what i have writed after)
adb shell pull /system/app/*.apk "c:\Skin\Original APK"
adb shell pull /system/framework/*.apk "c:\Skin\Original APK"
copy "c:\Skin\Original APK\*.apk" "c:\Skin\Modded APK"
You can delete the APKs you will never modify on Modded.
It's finished, we can start
SECOND STEP : Drag & Drop
I'm using WinRAR.
Like i said before, we have to keep our APKs signed.
Select which APKs you want to modify of "Modded" folder, right click, and select "extract...".
Select "Decompressed" folder, and extract all APKs.
You will have many folders with the name of which APK. (Rosie, framework-res, etc etc)
Modify all PNGs you want to modify on which folder. (Note : All images are on res/drawable*)
Then, return on modded folder, open which APKs you modified on the other folder, and open framework-res.apk for example, let the APK open with WinRAR. Open "Decompressed"s folder, select some folders/PNGs you have modified (we will select "drawable" for example), drag&drop it in WinRAR. (of course, you have to be on /res folder in winRAR, the folder have to match...)
Copy the modified APK with : adb push blabla.apk /system/originaldirectoryoftheapk
Some advices
- All notifications icons are on framework-res.apk & com.htc.resources.apk.
- The only APKs which are on /system/framework/ are the both APKs one line before. All others are on /system/app/.
- Rosie.apk is HTC Sense.
- Some notifications icons are on Calendar.apk (1), HtcContacts.apk (1), HtcLocationService.apk (1), HtcMusic.apk (2+), HtcTwitter.apk (1), Mail.apk (1), Mms.apk (1+), Talk.apk (1).
- If you modify Rosie.apk, or some others APKs, Sense will be strange, wait or reboot the device.

Hi JoOoSs
I have modified Browser.apk, but when I try
Code:
adb push Browser.apk /system/app/Browser.apk
I receive the next message:
Code:
failed to copy 'Browser.apk' to '/system/app/Browser.apk': Out of memory
Also, before this I was receiving this message:
Code:
failed to copy 'Browser.apk' to '/system/app/Browser.apk': Directory not empty
Any ideas about what could be the problem?
Thanks!
It's a problem with your ROM.
Modaco ? Fyodor ? Stock ?
I have the MoDaCo ROM, the weird thing is that yesterday I installed your Black skin, and today I tried to do it again and have the above errors.
At each reboot you have to do:
adb shell
insmod /system/lib/modules/tattoo-hack.ko
mount -o rw,remount /dev/block/mtdblock3 /system

Actually, I did it.
I've noticed something really weird. I flashed a fresh ROM (MoDaCo), then I pushed your files (from Black Skin) and some mine, everything worked perfect. But, later, when I try to push another file (yours or mine), I get this error:
Code:
adb push WorldClock.apk /system/app/WorldClock.apk
failed to copy 'WorldClock.apk' to '/system/app/WorldClock.apk': Directory not empty
I don't know what is happening
I think you lose the RW when you exit your CMD, did you retry to mount /system ?
If it's yes, i don't know it works in my Modaco Oo
Thanks JoOoSs
I don't know why this was happening, but I installed the stock ROM and everything works perfect know! Regards!
It would be nice to have default android skin on our tattoo. Do you think is it possible?
Yep, you have to flash 2.1 ROM which is on Dev forum, backup all PNG from his ROM & re-insert them on an other ROM.

Actually, you don't need to flash the 2.1 rom, remember that is a .zip, so just extract the apps from /system/app directory and then extract the pngs...
In the zip there are only the *.img ?
We have to uncompress boot.img etc it's more long!
So...what we could do to have a default 2.1 lock screen and skin and nothing else?
Please help us poor noobs

Not really, I downloaded the update.zip file from the 2.1, and it doesn't have .img files... I've changed all my apps icons using the 2.1 version.
Is there anyone that can answer to my ask?

Hi, actually, change all the skin and the lock screen is going to be almost impossible, I changed all the main apps icons, but the skin itself is more complex, we have to go through all system APKs and find the png files related with the skin, but even doing that the change is complex.
This is how my icons looks like:
Can you upload icons & the wallpaper ?
yes, wallpaper please
Thank you arturo
I'd like also the only white bar rather than black
APKs with eclair icons and wallpaper
Hello all,
Here are the modified apk files with the eclair icons and also a nice wallpaper.
I highly recommend to do a nandroid backup before replace the apk files (we never know ).
APKs: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=GG7LPC9C
Enjoy it!
lets try something new today..
before I start let me ask you this questions.
do you like customizing your phone?
do you want to edit your apk's without a pc?
do you have belief in xrecovery (&me probably)
if you answered YES for the above questions. I've something good for you.
our map for the treasure in this journey would be a small application named
METAMORPH
MetaMorph, at heart, is simply a program that takes files from a directory and adds them to an already existing zip package.
In this case, our zip packages are apk and jar files.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
THINGS YOU'LL NEED :
Metamorph (attached)
RootExplorer (any apk which can edit xml files)
Androzip/Astro (zip app)
Creativity & Willingness to take the Risk
Metamorph uses a zip file to apply the customize apk on your phone.
the zip file contains two things
a xml file
folder containing your mods
lets cut it sweet with an example.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
lets suppose I want to change the icon of my apk. lets say I want to change icon of Calculator
{
"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_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
to
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Metamorph is CaseSensitive. Following Steps need the correct name & case
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
we'll do it in 2 parts
PART - 1
to do this I'll first need to create a folder named Calculator
now the icon of calculator is in the folder res\drawable-mdpi
so I'll create those folders in the Calculator folder
so the line is Calculator->res->drawable-mdpi
all I need to do now is the monster icon into this folder and name it exactly the same way it is in the original so lets rename monster.png to icon.png
PART - 2
the xml file should contain this code
Code:
[B]<?xml version="1.0"?>
<themename>[COLOR=Red]theme_name[/COLOR]</themename>
<themeversion>0.1beta</themeversion>
<screenshot></screenshot>
<author>Suhel</author>
<authorweblink>N/A</authorweblink>
<phone>Xperia X8</phone>
<rom>Sony Xperia X8 2.1 </rom>

<item>[COLOR=Red]your_apk.apk[/COLOR]</item>
<path>[COLOR=Red]path_of_your_apk[/COLOR]</path>
<description></description>
[/B]
ok the red things in the above code are crucial.
1. theme_name (I'll come to this later)
2. your_apk.apk this is the name of your apk
3. path_of_your_apk this is the path of your apk
for our Calculator it should be something like this
Code:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<themename>X8Champ</themename>
<themeversion>0.1beta</themeversion>
<screenshot></screenshot>
<author>Suhel</author>

<themedescription>Converted Theme</themedescription>
<item>[B][COLOR=Red]Calculator.apk[/COLOR][/B]</item>
<path>[COLOR=Red][B]/system/app/[/B][/COLOR]</path>
<description></description>
hope you understand. now you need to save the xml file.
now the first point. the theme_name you are going to type should be the same name as of your xml file name
ok now you're done.
all you need to do now is create a zip file and place the folder & xml file in that zip file. again make sure the name of the zip file should be the same as the xml file
put the zip file in your sdcard root
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Applying theme with Metamorph
Tap Unzip/Extract new theme
Select the Zip file
Tap the apk you want to apply and tap apply it
Reboot your phone
-THE END-
Why Metamorph?
1. Easily Edit your Apk's & Jar files on your phone without hazzle of extracting and replacing.
(Jar files will need pc. awww but you dont edit jars too much )
2. You can Mod multiple Apk's
Code:
[B]<item>[COLOR=Red]your_apk1.apk[/COLOR]</item>
<path>[COLOR=Red]path_of_your_apk[/COLOR]</path>[/B]
[B]<item>[COLOR=Red]your_apk2.apk[/COLOR]</item>
<path>[COLOR=Red]path_of_your_apk[/COLOR]</path>
[/B]
[B]<item>[COLOR=Red]your_apk3.apk[/COLOR]</item>[/B]
[B] <path>[COLOR=Red]path_of_your_apk[/COLOR]</path>
<description></description>
[/B]
you can even edit your Framework-res.apk. just make sure the path of it is /system/framework and not /system/app
3. I don't know. I need to try it out more. I'm trying to edit a jar file for now. will tell you the results. but the potential of it are endless
4. However it doesn't work with market apps. its intended to only bug the stock things
IMPORTANT : Meta is very stringent about its filenames and fonts case and name. If you miss one thing the apk will disappear from your menu. so make sure you've a
BACKUP B4 U MESS-UP
WOW IT RHYMES LOL
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
EDIT : well you don't need to entirely backup just copy/paste the apk you want to edit. entire backup may require if you are playing with jar files or crucial apk's.
I'm not responsible for any mess done to your phone
Edit 2 : Works with framework-res.apk too
Ok. How can I change icon Phone or Music Player? I try your method and I can change only Calculator, Calender and Settings. Any ideas?

Is it possible to change the top status bar from grey to black when using a program? Example, in screen shot attached, the top status bar is grey in colour instead of black when using tapatalk. Facebook had the sane experience too. Thanks.

Accept bar? and you can change the position of the power widgets, nothing else!
I'm sorry, i made a mistake. I want to modify the position of icons in xml files to move them a little because i don't like the position of the blue bar of each icon. When I translate to spanish, it crosses the text.
Enviado desde mi MT15i usando Tapatalk
But i don't know what xml file is the correct.

Hello,
First of all thanks for the info, i have used this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1352993, until i discovered this topic and try this one.
My phone is a Neo V and it works very well.
In your first post, where you explain the steps to follow in the process, i think you must exchange steps 5 and 6 and also modify just a bit steps 4 and 5(wich must be 6).
I mean:
-Step 4: Copy SystemUI.apk from SDCard, go to /system and mount it R/W (not /system/app because in /system there is no SystemUI.apk to replace), paste the file here.
-Step 5:Change permissions to rw-r--r-- just as you explained in your 6th step.
-Step 6:Copy the file from /system, paste it in /system/app and confirm the replacement and reboot.
Following this order you don't get into troubles like me.
Because if you replace the file before changing permissions you will get stuck in a endless looping dialog telling anything about an error, clicking ok and again getting the same dialog in less than a second. I finally get out pressing power button to show 'shutdown dialog' wich also was totally covered under the annoying looping dialog, i just started taping as fast as i could, until fortunatelly one of my 'taps' hit de shutdown option between the dissappearing and the appearing of the 'loopy error dialog'. After powering on again it just get missing the notifications bar, i went with RootExplorer to /system/app, finally change permissions and reboot again and... just fixed it.
Hope i helped.(and well... i'm not a native english speaker)
Salut.
