1. Sorry, I don't know this key combination too...
2. Search for any CM7 Theme on the market/Android Themes section. Download it, install it, go to Theme Chooser App and apply it. But I don't know how to create a theme, sorry too.
3. Search for ''Boot Animation 240x320'' in Google or here in the forum, download it, rename it if it's not named as bootanimation.zip, use Root Explorer, go to /system/media, paste and replace the existing one. Long press, go to Permissions, and make it look like this:
X X -
X - -
X - -
X is selected, - is non-selected.
Press Ok, reboot and enjoy your new boot animation.
Hope it helped, don't forget to press Thanks button (I'm asking it like a beggar lol).

thx ....
but still dont know how to istall the themes
because i found themes.zip not . APK

Those themes, you have to be sure that it's made for you for ROM, because any thing wrong with the framework-res.apk, your phone won't boot.
If you know how to install update.zip using CWM Recovery, just jump the following guide, if not, read it.
After you make sure of that, download it, put in the root of your SD Card (it's better, but not needed), boot in CWM Recovery (using power menu, reboot, recovery) or turn off your device, turn it on again, and when it's starts the screen before the boot animation (called SE logo, or splash screen by most guys), spam like crazy the Back button.
When the Recovery appear, use:
Volume up: Goes up
Volume Down: Goes Down
Home button: select the highlighted option
Back button: goes one menu back.
Ok, recovery appeared, press volume down until you reach: Install update.zip from SD Card. Press home button, press volume button once, chose: Chose update.zip from SD Card, and press volume up until you reach the desired theme you want to apply, press home button, volume down, home button. Your theme will be installed, it takes about 30 sec to 1 min with me.
Press back button, ultin you reach the first menu, select the first option: Reboot system now
The phone will reboot, wait a while, it may take 1 or 2 minutes more as usual to boot and... voilá!!! Enjoy your new theme.
Hope it helped. Don't forget the thanks button (I am begging again...) And give me/us a feedback.

[Q] How to install theme ?

Hello
I want to install on Wildfire theme. I read somewhere saying that the key power button & Home together with key press when the phone is off. But will not be clear and the phone!
I also had read here that the key power button center together withjoystick press. The work is well done but came to a page to boot. And her page that says to install the template did not!
Tnx.
Pretty sure you have to wait for root access on the phone, before we are able to install custom themes on the wildfire.
since it is rooted now, which themes are compatable with the wildfire?

Are you holding the volume up button in before you press the power (End) button? That's how it needs to be done in order to get into recovery mode. In other words, press and hold the volume up button, momentarily press the End button (long enough for it to turn on), then after it's on, let go of the volume up button. It should go into recovery shortly after turning on.

Hi, I just bought this Alcatel 890d phone a couple of weeks ago. Is it possible to upgrade its software to Gingerbread or higher Android version? Could you please help us.. Thanks

i gave up

hey guys.. i finally decided to change the laggy stock rom to the latest cm11 mod
installation was okay and all.. when the phone started, it kept saying keyboard stopped working
okay i figured that i copied the wrong gapps .. now comes the real problem,
i tried to boot into recovery by holding power and up/down both didnt work
is there a tool to flash the cmw into my phone from my pc then patch the right gapps?
my phone is pretty useless now so please any answer should help thanks.
This is an idea i give you, i don´t know if your home button or power button are working fine but i had that problem when i started this rom installing addiction, my home button was a little damaged so if i want to enter to recovery i have to press it hard. Maybe you should give it a try pressing harder the buttons. Just an idea.
@medothe1: you are more efficiant, if u use the usual buttons to start recovery: power & louder & menu.
When logo bootloader appears, release power-button.
Can get to settings

Things to do on a stock ROM

I want to root my Xperia X and i want to install and see things like Sony theming engine, XZ2 lockscreen clock, music earphones selection, rotate title at navigation bar, new phone and Contacts app, substratum theming engine, changing power off UI to new android pie, magisk manager and things that can be done on a rooted X.
I want you guys to please explain in a simple understandable way how to root Xperia X dual. I seen the method but i am unable to understand it. In ZR i just used a app to root it but in X it's very long process and i am feeling like i will brick my device with in 5 minutes. Can i use my stock DRM keys after rooting?
Someone please post step by step method
Also please share apps and things you guys using on your device.
I use YOUTUBE VANCED, KIWI BROWSER instead of YouTube and Chrome. I changed my smallest width to 475 in developer optins. I use Xblack teal theme for X shaped button on home page for viewing apps.
I use More shortcuts app to use app activities. I am using Sony Phone apk v10 and latest Sony Contacts app from apkmirror site and of last i am using XZ2 icons pack ?
(ALL YOUR DATA WILL BE WIPED!!!!)
BEFORE YOU DO ANYTHING FORCE AN INSTALLATION OF GOOGLES USB ANDROID DRIVERS! Im using a xperia x single sim and Sony drivers didnt work......To force an Installation just go to YouTube and type "force driver installiert Windows"......after you forced the drivers download flashtool for xperia (not the original from their Website) and press the BLU button (that stands for bootloader unlock) after that do what the program instructs you To.....then press the " Get key" button and scroll all the way down until you can See "imei or" something else similar.... Ofcourse select your phone first in the list (blue box)....... If you typed your imei and selected your phone press continue.you will See a code copy it and put it into the empty flashtool box. Then press ok in the Programm. And wait........ After that you will get a message in your phone that your phone is unlocked and "cant be trusted" this is the sign that you can now do all the "Cool stuff" so i recomend for a first timer using the flash recovery button in flashtool (trust me it helps) then download and select the TWRP recovery...wait......(oh yes i forgot To mention reboot To fastboot again by turning the phone off.... Holding the Volumen up button and then connecting the USB cable whilst Holding volume up) press OK
After that disconnect From your PC and wait for the blue light To go off...) after that you press and hold Volume down and power until you See the Sony Logo. If you See the orange triangle hold all buttons you have except camera button....screen turns off then release Volume up and continue wirh volume down....after that you should See TEAMWIN and two arrows.when you See this you did everything right. MAKE SURE TO JUST SWIPE DO NOTHING ELSE. After that press backup and select system and boot...wait.... So now everything is safe just please NEVER DELETE THIS BACKUP! Its your stock Rom.....then you all done! Get loneage OS 15.1 for a good Start and dont forget gapps nano or pico! Bye i hope i could hell you!
