[MOD] [U][P?][Sola?] Xperia Z JB Framework | AOSP lockscreen music controls fix - Sony Xperia P, U, Sola, Go

This is a port of Xperia Z framework.
All the ported frameworks for Xperia U had one thing missing which I liked, their app background did not change with the theme. So I decided to do my own port where I retained this feature. This framework is compiled by me and has over 2000 images ported from Xperia Z. And the app background also does change now :good:
Features:
1. Complete Xperia Z framework.
2. Fixes AOSP music controls alignment issue.
3. I cannot possibly list all the changes here so why don't you consult the screenshots for some, or better yet try it for the whole experience
See attachments for screenshots
How to install:
1. Download framwork-res.apk from the attachments
2. Copy it to your sdcard
3. Move it to any folder in your system (ANY folder other than system/framework)
4. Change permissions to rw-r-r-
5. Now move the the file to system/framework
6. Immediately reboot your system
7. Enjoy
NOW! Before you proceed any further let me explain something to you. Framework-res.apk is an extremely sensitive file. Do NOT copy the file directly to system/framework without changing permissions first, or it will crash the OS and brick your phone. Copy the file first to any folder in system/ (except framework) (I personally copy files to system/media/ then change permissions and move files elsewhere) Change the permissions to rw-r-r- like:
X-X
X
X
And then move the file to system/framework.
Finally I am not responsible if you brick your device due to not following the instructions properly. If you did everything right and there are any bugs or problems you're most welcome to ask and I will surely help.
Try and post your experiences in the comments.
Credits to ZN6 and Mtakween for their Xperia Z framework port. Check their work out as well :good:
If you like it, don't forget to press thanks :victory:

Use apktool, and after compiling take the classes.dex only from /build of apktool and replace the classes.dex of your systemui.apk by opening in winrar ( apk -> zip)
Thank You,

Thanks, but nothing Look what I am doing
-Replace clasess.dex using 7Zip or APKtool (as you said) from your SUI.apk to my SUI.apk ----- Nothing
----
-Decompile Your SUI,extract the three .smali files and replace those on my SUI
-Recompile the new SUI and then place the META-INF folder with 7Zip in the new SUI (Here I get the smaller APK) ----- Nothing
-Replace the res folder in the new SUI with the original of my SUI (Because in the new one is smaller) ----- Nothing
----
-I did the previous steps in one ---- Nothing
I don't know if its happening due i am using an original (Untouched) SystemUI (I guess) Anyways I did not get any error de/re-compiling.
I am gonna try so, with other SUI

[TUT] Xperia Z Lockscreen - change unlock screen tips/unlock times before remove tips

Hi everyone, I'm here to teach you guys on how to change the text "Swipe up or down to unlock" on Xperia Z lock screen. Since I saw some request on it.
Preparation:
*Framework Toolkit by Themike10452 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=36085941 (at B section, only the toolkit) (from now on will call toolkit)
*Notepad++ http://notepad-plus-plus.org/ (under download tab)
*Java Development Kit http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk7-downloads-1880260.html (choose the one compatible with your os) (install it before you open toolkit)
*Latest apktool (both apktool and and it's dependencies) http://code.google.com/p/android-apktool/downloads/list (use dependencies for windows if you are on windows)
*7zip File Manager http://www.7-zip.org/
{ above all software are essentials for one to mod any apk files and frameworks. }
*UxpNxtLockScreen.apk (extract from ROM either from phone memory using root file explorer or from flashable ROM zip (at system/app)
*A thinking Brain
**Framework Toolkit by Themike10452 http://d-h.st/Pkb (this is the version that I'm using to mod apk and framework (it mean it is working, for me), use it if your toolkit is not working, only for windows os only) (I have no idea am I allowed to share this tool or not, since i didn't get permission from Themike10452 yet, request sent but no reply at all at the moment, I will put this down if Themike10452 request so)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Instructions/Guide:
§ 1st, extract Framework Toolkit by Themike10452 and put it aside on any where of your comp (preferable desktop).
§ 2nd, extract apktool files with 7 zip. Yes, open the bz2 files you had download just now, you will see a tar file within, open it again, then you will see a folder, for apktool, you will see a file jar file ; for dependencies, you will see 2 files exe and bat each, copy them and replace the same file in toolkit folder (inside the "other" folder", just override the old files).
§ place UxpNxtLockScreen.apk in "place-apk-here-for-modding" within toolkit folder.
§ run "Apk-Multi-Tool.bat" as admin. Press any keys to continue after the "Multi Tool Screen" appear. It will lead you to a screen with multiple options shown with numbers in front of them.
§ check: at top right corner, "Current-App" should follow with "UxpNxtLockScreen.apk"(if no, please recheck whether if the file you put is in correct place or not and you shouldn't have more than 1 apk in that folder to start modding or theming), then press "9" and enter to decompile apk. Once it's done, minimize the toolkit, you will use it later, now go to root folder of toolkit, within projects folder you will see a folder named "UxpNxtLockScreen.apk".
(from 1st instruction until here is the general decompiling apk process, it should works on all apks unless the apk have extraordinary resources that can't be decoded by apktool by other toolkit, maybe? and the following instructions will be called "modding" *yes, you are now starting to mod a/an apk file now )
§ navigate to /projects/UxpNxtLockScreen.apk/res/values/ and you will see 11 xml files. Open strings.xml with Notepad++.
§ find the line with this name "lockscreen_unlock_hint", use Ctrl + F if you can't find them.
eg:<string name="lockscreen_unlock_hint">Swipe up or down to unlock</string>
§ change the sentence after " > " and before " </string> " with the sentence you desire and save the file (Ctrl + S)
§ Back to Apk Multi Tool, press " 21 " > enter > " 0 " > enter. ( This is to set compression level to 0. I'm not sure if it works with Compression level at 9) then " 11 " and enter to recompile the apk. A while later. screen will pause and show a message end with < y / n >:
2 options here:
# To be safe, press " y " and enter then wait for it to extract source from original apk, navigate to keep folder, delete a file named "resources.arsc" and back to apk multi tool and press any buttons to continues. (this is to keep the original sources at new modified apk to reduce error and maintain its compatibilities to the ROM.)
# Another is " n ", just press n and enter, and done. (i wont give 100% working in this way, do it on your own risk)
§ You will then get a file named "System_UxpNxtLockScreen.apk", move or copy it into your SD, rename to "UxpNxtLockScreen.apk", and replace it with correct permission ( R W - R - - R - - ).
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
# To change the number of times unlock to remove the unlock tips (unlock untill a certain times to remove the unlock tips), navigate to /projects/UxpNxtLockScreen.apk/res/values/ and open intergers.xml with note++, and find the following lines "unlocks_before_hint_removal"
eg: <integer name="unlocks_before_hint_removal">100</integer>
change the number value to number of times you desire and save the file, then recompile the apk.

Extra
You may use the apktool provided by stanlin salu from his tutorial of decompile/recompile apk. About decompile and recompile apk, follow his tutorial, just edit those files according to my instructions/guide. This thread is actually only providing the information about which file and which line to be edited to change the unlock tips and unlock times before remove tips.
{stanlin salu's apk decompile and recompile tutorial and apktool download------------> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2011337
CAUTION!
§ Please check both of your apk file by opening them with 7 zip file manager, compare both apk for their content(should be total of 3 files and 2 folders), all the files and folders within should have the same size except "resource.arsc" *unless you modified some other pictures, then check the number of files contained in the folder, the number of files must be the same. If "META-INF" is different, please copy the folder from original apk to modded apk and override them. None of those files (classes.dex, AndroidManifest.xml, META-INF...) can be 0kb (I think only odexed framework will get 0kb, deodexed framework will not get 0kb)
§ If you replaced any picture in drawable folders, please make sure that the picture have same file name with the original picture. And during recompile process, please delete the same picture file of the same name that you modified at keep folder if you choose < y > at the pause.
Miscellaneous:
§ If you seriously having problem to recompile or modding, you may upload UxpNxtLockScreen.apk or yours to me for modding and I will upload to you once I get it done.
§ Please give me some time to mod for you since I'm just a Pre-University Student who studied 12 hours a day and also spending my time with my family and friends as well. I'm doing all these as a part of my interest and my own free will. :angel:

did you install the Java and restart your comp? the apktool require Java Development Environment(JDE) to run it. JDE download is on 1st post. and you must choose the correct version, for instance like me, i'm using windows 7 ultimate x64, so i installed windows x64 bits version. since you said u tried different version of apktool and its not working, you must have either java problem, or you did not running it as administrator.

jordiluna, you try it see if it works or not. and, after recompile, please recompare the modded apk and original apk, the 3 files must have same file size, choose < y > during recompile, just delete the resources.arsc only. leave other untouched files and pictures there to be rewrite to the new modded apk.

(Tutorial) How to Mod Dark look on PA 4 Custom Rom

Hi, this is my first tutorial mod for droid razr, i will share how to change black gradient looks on Paranoid Android Rom become to solid black like on Slimkat rom with TRDS mode On xD . Some people maybe use xposed framework and module but i try to mod the framework because i dont use xposed . This mod also affect on other apps which use holo dark background like root explorer, safestrap, calculator etc.
For this Mod you will need
- PA rom ( i currently use PA 4 beta 7 for umts spyder)
- Apk tool/apk multitool/Ricky Kitchen tool etc
- Notepad ++
- Winrar/Winzip
- Patient and brain LOL
1. First you must know how to decompile and compile APK, i am using Ricky Rom Kitchen for doing this but you can another apps too like APK Multitool, APK tool etc
2. Now time to mod, first take your framework-res.apk from rom (its located on system/framework) and decompile it
3. Now open with notepad++ >> framework-res.apk/res/drawable/background_holo_dark.xml
4. You will see this
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<shape
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
<gradient android:startColor="#ff000000" android:endColor="#ff272d33"" android:angle="270.0" />
</shape>
5. Change android:endColor="#ff272d33"" with android:endColor="#ff000000" and save them
6. Compile it again but its not finish yet
7. Now on your apktool you will see unsignedframework-res.apk , open it with winzip and delete Meta-inf folder and androidmanifest xml and copy Meta-inf folder and androidmanifest.xml from original framework-res.apk
8. Rename unsignedframework-res.apk become framework-res.apk and copied back to your phone ( i recommend made a backup rom or just flashable zip framework-res.apk just in case if it failed and bootloop )
9. Now with Root Explorer copy your Framework-res.apk to the /system and set permission first RW-R-R and move it to framework folder, if its ask to overwrite answer yes
10. Reboot your phone and enjoy
this is how its look
