Xperia Mini ST15i
It works on our phone...not only does it work (I tried the SMS app also) but it works BRIlliantly..it's gorgeous...thanks!

---

it works great on mini..what will be in new version..thanks for your great effort

---

Next version will be the port to ICS ROM, when it will be released.

---

Works pretty great woth the Active too. The only issue I encountered was that I have a SystemUI.apk that is made for 4x4 app drawer, and this one is 4x3. So I had half an exrra line going below the app drawer background. If you're willing to make a framework.apk that supports the 4x4, it would be awesome.

Is not better to use another homescreen replacement?

---

I tried using Home.apk from my rom (the Xperia ray ported homescreen) but the alignment of the icons in the drawer isnt handled by home.apk but from systemUI.apk (at least that's what i can imagine since framework.apk and home.apk are replaced by the ones in your zip). So if you add a SystemUI.apk, not necessarily a 4x4 one, you will eliminate all the compatibility issues that might occur with people not coming from a completely stock ROM.
Just my 2 cents. I love the effort you have put into making this. It's not just a simple theme change it's a visual overhaul.
BTW i didnt get a Reboot menu with the theme. I dunno if you have implemented it or not, just noting it out.

---

There is just reboot option in power menu, nothing more.
Acording to homescreen: catch the screenshot and paste here

---

There ya go. I dunno if you had implemented HTC's icons for the apps, but it has kept the ICS ones i had previously
Scratch that. Im a complete retard. I hadn't erased data on SE home app so thats why it was like that.

---

The quick panel icons are very blured,fix them please. Great work as always.

---

Lol they are meant to be blurred when off.

Did You ever saw HTC sence interface? This is the special effect for quick panel icons taken from HTC sense.
If You don't want them just replace them with others...

## 2012-03-19:
- Applications: Datamonitor, Google Quick Search, Gmail and You Tube updated to the latest versions
- Modifications in Phonebook contact photos (last screenshot in first post)http://forum.xda-developers.com/editpost.php?do=editpost&p=23806815
- Replaced text selection PNG for text input (thanks dumraden)

For a more Sense like UI you can replace the Text icon when you long press your finger.
This is what it looks like:
I have changed the following files in framework-res.apk
text_select_handle_left.png
text_select_handle_middle.png
text_select_handle_right.png
with the Png below. The left and right are a bit off, but the mid one is spot on and looks really nice. Could be a little bigger though. Consider adding it.
(I took it from an HTC explorer ROM, the HDPI version of it looks way too big)
