[HELP] Resizing Dock Bar on RAY - Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A

I am attempting to resize the dock bar (stage) on my stock Ray. I have searched for hours in the decompiled Home APK and tried numerous things to no avail. Does anybody happen to know how I can do this? I would just like to make it a little smaller.
I have attached my Home APK
Any suggestions would be much appreciated.
Sorry to post here but there is no Q&A section for Ray

I have a world around.
Use a custom launcher such as launcher pro or adw and use a custom dock ?
sent from my gorgeus Xperia Ray

yeah I have used ADW and its perfect but for some reason some of the SE widgets wont work any other launcher and I like them.
There is a dimension for "stage height" listed here Home.apk\res\values\public.xml
I have added it to Home.apk\res\values\dimens.xml as it didnt exist there and defined it as 65.0dip as per the other dims but this made no difference.
My knowledge of the code is limited so I am at a loss.

SOLVED!

Resize Solution
In the latest Home.apk i.e FW .42 there is a dimension called Stage_Breadth here Home.apk\res\values\dimens.xml. This will change the height of the dockbar.

Help to make the new digital clock widget from Arc/Play work on X8

I found this great digital clock widget from Arc/Play in the other thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1027853
But I can't get it working on X8 - on CM7 it closes with an FC and displays a tinted rectangle where the clock should be.
Can you please test it and help with your knowledge to get it working on X8?
You can download it here:
widgetdigitalclock.apk
Here is a screenshot how it should look on Arc/Play/X10:

Anyone get this working on CyanogenMod 7 yet? Im on Zdzihu's CM7 on X10 and I really want this widget for my ROM

[Q] Could anybody port this to X10 from ARC?

Arc has a unique reminder for unread messages and missed calls.

After testing the arc rom, i found that it has nothing to do with any other apk but the conversations.apk and semcphone.apk
But i cant port it to x10. It FCs while dialing.
Could anybody do this?
Many launchers on the market have that kind of addon. Go Launcher has Go Launcher Ex Notification, ADW has ADW Notifier. Not sure about the stock tho. But Id recommend you get one of the market launchers cause they are better than the stock SE (can theme, get addions, customize, etc)
thank u for ur recommendation...
i like these launchers.
but TS widgets may only available in SE launcher...
and that's what i like very much.
T.T
The closest thing I could find on the market is an app called "SMS Unread Count". But from what I read in the description, it creates widgets (that look like icons) on the desktop so im not sure if you could put them in your app bar.
i'll try it.

[Q] ST15i Lock Screen Clock

Hi guys, I'm a bit curious here. Can i use the clock which is on the lock screen of the Xperia Mini ST15i instead of the digital or analog clock widget on the home screen? The digital is way too small IMO. Here's a screenshot of the clock in use (not sure how they got it so big and nice):

The clock there is just a basic text script there, not as widget.
It is basically the clock(the text), written in certain font, that is updated after every minute.

[GUIDE] Default Horizontal Launcher

I found a very simple way to get a horizontal launcher, using simply a glitch I found within an app.
Firstly, install Notification Toggle (i'm using v.2.6.4).
Add the 'Rotation' to the notification bar.
By preference change the status bar icon to a battery percentage.
Go to a stock app that supports a horizontal view (e.g. settings, Conversations).
Toggle the Rotation using the status bar.
Lock it at horizontal.
On my Xperia Ray, the launcher was then horizontal.

(Sorry, I'm new).
thanks for that i've tested it before and it's working very good......
note: please download xperia icon pack in the last 2 packages in the notification toggle icons downloader which is made by me to be more compatible with xperia devices.
