[Theme] All black - Xperia Arc Themes and Apps

Since I got my Arc, the blueish theme has annoyed me, so I decided to make a monochrome version.
All black backgrounds, all grayscale frames.
One of few things (that I know of) that still is light blue is the progressbar.
The CRT-off animation is included.

As far as I know and have tested it's black in landscape, yes. But since I just made this yesterday, I may definitely have missed a few things.
Please report back what's not black/gray so I can improve.
Thanks,

bcoz ive tried others theme which is green or grey, n its semcgenericuxpres.apk file..

Sorry, I forgot to upload SemcGenericUxpRes.apk. Added now.
Some of the pictures are in SemcGenericUxpRes.apk and some in framework-res.apk so both files are needed.
I also tried landscape and it certainly works for me (all things I tested), but of course I may have missed something.

Did you change the permissions ad this normally results in a bootloop, think you will just need to reflash your firmware, its happened to me many times
Sent via noahs ark

no cos i tough original files dont have to do that lol... how to reflash my firmware? I found this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1047484&highlight=repair but the flashtool did not detect any rom in firmware folder im using Flashtool BETA version 0.2.9.1

How do i apply this theme?
I couldn't just move the files to my Arc and install them.
Then what?
Please help

you have to use root explorer to move it into your system/app remember to add permission or els u will be just like me lol

I always use fastboot to reflash not to sure on flashtool :-(
Sent via noahs ark

I can't just use Astro Filemanager?
My phone is rooted, so thats not a problem. But that app cost money, and im all out currently

Original Sony Ericsson Style on cyanogen mod!

Is it possible to make a cyanogen mod rom look like the sony ericsson original rom???
Yes, it's possible. But it is the hard work. Would you do it?
i'm not a developer so i can't do it!
it's a good idea though!
why should someone want to do that? if they like SE then they should stick to SE
I like that beacause i want froyo with sony ericsson original style!!!
+1 for the idea. I also wanna use a newer ROM with the same SE style.
Hmmm... satya164, I agree with you

I tried to replace the framework-res.apk, but my phone stuck on the boot animation!
The filenames are not all the same in framework, but with some renaming the original SE files according to cyanogen ones should work.
I have returned to original SE ROM because the cyonagen is soo ugly, stock android is bad for our small screens. The most visible is at top bar where on SE everithing is big and clear (hour, batery stat, wi-fi and other simbols) and on cyonagen bareley you could see something.
Until now I replaced the small and blurry font with Sony fonts. Maybe when 2.3.3 finaly will be bugfree and fully functional I will work on this.
My experience is with cyonagen 7 (2.3.3)

Try swapping images in the framework-res.apk and not the framework-res.apk
Well it is possible to change framework-res.apk but you willcertainly need to swap a ****load of stuff.
Pushing framwork.jarm android-testrunner alot of libs.
In the end the question is will you lose the changes from the newer version an in the end endup with the same old crap again

[Q] No bootanimation at all.

Hallo people,
i have a question about bootanimation. Mine isn't working at all.
Does anybody no how to get it working again? Have all the original files in the right places. May it be that i've deleted something when i was deleting some systemapps and bloatware, does bootanimation needs anything like an app or something? Also i changed the build.prop for showing no bootanimation, but offcourse i turned it back.
I'm on stock KPH, rooted, Coolya kernel, CRT animation enabled if any of this maybe important.
Thnx a lot in advance.

Not yet, and don't think i'm going to do that for just bootanimation.

I didn´t know, but is cool meanwhile (?) the rom comes
All night, eh? Well, I'm impressed by your dedication.
Like I promised, here are two update zips flashable by CWM.
One uses your framework-res file to give ICS transitions.
The other adds my circular battery mod.
Remember, guys...always make a backup first!

Hmm. It's possible. This update.zip replaces your framework-res.
If the one in that theme is significantly different from the standard framework, it could cause issues.
But, there's always a way! If you could share your framework-res.apk we can put the transitions and battery animation on it. :-D
Sent from my U20i using XDA App
Ok. My framework-res in attach files.
and if u can, create 2 versions plz. 1st - with transitions only and 2nd - transitions+battery.
Thx a lot.
Well, artistically it's a very nice theme and I give the original themer 10 out of 10 for it.
From a technical perspective though, they only get 1. When they put it together, they didn't include any .9 patches in the .9 png's. Which basically means it won't compile, even before you start to think about modifying it.
I think I've fixed it though. Try the attached and let us know if it works out for you.

You should not use this mod, because version 2.1.8 already have the ICS animations. Flashing MiniCM wil be the easiest way to solve your problem

Sure it is. It's the ICS transitions that may be a problem. As far as I know, you can put a circular battery on pretty much any Android phone!

Well, two possible ways really.
You could either follow this guide here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=849223. This tells you how to start theming your phone and is very helpful but can take a while to get the hang of it.
Or..I could do it for you. All you need to do is share your framework-res.apk file.

After decompiling it
Go to res/drawable-ldpi
Replace all the
stat_battery_xx with ur nokia battery images
Note that don't change name and resolution of those images(.png)
Recompile framework-res.apk
Replace it set permission
I think u also have to edit framework-res.jar to make it work

Why do you want to use the old nokia type icons? Make it a bit more stylish!
Check this thread. It got a lot of good looking battery icons, download the zip, extract the icons and replace them in framework-res.apk/res/drawable-ldpi and flash the apk back!
