You can try this (I had deleted mine and that worked for me).
I can't guarantee that it will work for you, and I take no responsibility.
(The files I attach are from gingerdx. If you want you can extract them from minicm7 pro yourself. They are in system/app, after you extract the minicm7pro-v21.zip.)
IMPORTANT! First make a backup in CWM, just to be sure.
Copy the attached files (thememanager.apk, themechooser.apk) in your sdcard.
In your phone, with a file manager (I use ES file explorer) copy the two files to your phone's memory in /system/app.
Change the permissions to rw- r-- r-- (in the properties of thememanager.apk and themechooser.apk).
You have to tick these boxes:
x x -
x - -
x - -
Reboot your phone.
If it went well, you're ok.
If not you can restore the backup you made in the beginning.
TKS, working perfect...

Good job.. my gallery looks awesome !!!

dude where is the keyboard.zip?

Keyboard is included in the xrec apps.zip or in apps.7z.
Search for file SuquashiInputMethod.apk .

i mean like it didnt made any changes to keyboard.
Should i run it i mean install it?
Can you create a zip file having only the update4 files.....
It will be a lot easier....
It is possible to install just the gallery? As an .apk or .zip
Just achieved root using azuzu's method and the fist thing I attempted was to get rid of the dull-dark backgrounds on the Stock ROM and use the bright blue backgrounds from the Xperia 1.6 days, which was also ported to 2.1
I modified the framework-res.apk on PC and used RootExplorer to overwrite the existing framework-res.apk but still I dont see any changes in the backgrounds. Any idea what's amiss? Here is a strp-by-step writ of what i did:
1. Use root explorer to copy the existing framework-res.zpk to /SDCARD/
2. Transferred the apk to PC, replaced the existing semc_bg.png and semc_general_bg in the archive.
3. Transferred the modified apk to sdcard.
4. Using root Explorer on the phone, copied the modified apk to /system/
5. Changed the permissions to match the original apk
6. Copied the modified apk from /system/ to /system/framework/ and overwritten the original apk
7. The file gets overwritten successfully - but there is no change in the system background images
Whare am i going wrong? AFAIK there is nothing wrong with the apk (I have learnt that an incorrect framework-res.apk can brick the phone!)
You also need to edit system/framework/SemcGeneralUxpRes.apk
Locate SemcGenericUxpRes.apk (system/framework) and SystemUI.apk (system/app).
They will also need to be modded for a full theme on GB.
*Edit- Lol, M_I ya beat me to it
Thanks @My_Immortal and AyDee.
I had checked the SystemUI.apk and there was nothing to edit in the package. Checking the SemcGenericUxpRes.apk now, will let y'all know soon!
It worked!!! Thanks guys...my UI looks much lore alive now! http://media.xda-developers.com/images/smilies/biggrin.gif
Also don't forget to replace the image for landscape mode too

Hey guys, just jumped from WB3.7 to 4.0, I also flashed the XLoud and Bravia patch. Unfortunately I've lost the stock messaging app. It's definitely not just the shortcut but while asp that's missing, as I get an FC when I attempt to text from phone book
Can someone point me to anywhere I can download the messaging app from, I'm hoping to flash through xrec, and download straight to phone. Cheers gents
maybe u can try to get WB 5, check it out! He just released
Search on your rom flashable zip, open it with winRar and find on system-app, search for nessaging.apk or conversation.apk, then extract it and move it to your sd card.
Then copy to system/app using root explorer (dont forget to change system permission to r/w) and change permission to rw- r-- r--.
Reboot.

I am on chameleon rom 1.1 ( hybrid aosp/samsung rom)
Can you help me ?
(sorry if i made mistakes in my post i'm not english XD )
You should copy the apk into /system/app, then change permissions into 644 (rw--r--r), change group and owner to 'root', and finally reboot and try.

i already tried it and it didn't work. and i am not sur about the about i trid to install because it s difficult to find the stock sms app.
i changed the permissions but i don t understand what you are saying by " 644 (rw--r--r)"
theoricaly it should work since i use an hybrid app ?
With a file manager, backup your mms.apk in /system/app in whatever folder you want. Then, copy the stock mms.apk into /system/app.
You shouldn't click on the .apk and let the app install as you do with other apk files, because this is a system application.
644 means read/write-read-read.
rw-r--r means u set read and write in the owner row , and set read only in the group row , and set read only too in the others row
Note : u get to permissions window in root explorer afer changing r/o read only to r/w read write from the button at the top
then just long click the item u want to change its permissions
i tried what you have said and it didn't work. Is a flashable zip existed ?
up
The stock mms.apk might not be compatible with the custom ROM you have on your phone...
Why do you say it doesn't work? What happens? You open it and it FCs or something else?
I just followed instructions given by posters above and it didn't worked. ( remove the old Mms.apk by the stock one, and fix the permissions, then reboot ) Maybe i don't have the good app, i don't understand why it didn't work; The chameleon rom support stock camera app of samsung and others apps...

Maybe the pakage cant be praised because of android version differnece , some apks from ics dont work on Jb and vice versa
So if u want a stock sms to work on jb , then download another jb rom that has it and take it from there
For pushing files to system app , it is better to first delete the app u want to replace then do a reboot after that copy the new app to system app and set premissions and set r/w back to r/o
