Ok, so if you're like me and just want the launcher of Xperia Z as it's unbelievably fluid (seriously), you may install just the launcher and it's awesome widgets without requiring flashing, causing framework errors or anything else nitty gritty, also it is very customisable. It's working on multiple number of phones and ROM's including that which I'm using. Anyway, follow the link I posted below for more info, credits are to him and not me.

Most likely the ROM being the issue here. I'm using the Alliance ROM. Screenshot added, oh and yes I've got HTC One theme running.

Update History
28/01/2012 - Added Original Active Launcher
21/01/2012 - Added Active Launcher for Stock 2.1 ROM
30/11/2011 - Added ICS MOD Active Launcher

Notes
Active Launcher for Stock 2.1 ROM
THIS LAUNCHER IS AS SMOOTH AS THE STOCK X8 LAUNCHER IN STOCK ROM. DON'T KNOW WHY, BUT PROBABLY BECAUSE IT IS OPTIMIZED TO RUN ON ORIGINAL SONY ERICSSON ROMS AND SONY ERICSSON ENVIRONMENT. THIS WORKS WITH STOCK ROM
Reccomendations:
*Do not install as system app - it does not like to be a system app
*Do not uninstall the stock x8 launcher - it works good with it and don't worry only one launcher will be running at an instance, unless a FC happens.
What's new
*"up arrow"
*Active Launcher features
Bugs [ONLY IN STOCK 2.1 ROM]
*Can't add folder - but to be honest who gives a damn, if your using the original x8 launcher you woudn't even have this or all the other feature.
*Can only add app shortcut, not other shortcuts for example "Manage Application" shortcut - Again you can't do this with stock x8 launcher
Someone already did this.....?

Yes I was about to mention this...
The difference here is that u have the 4 corners and also you do not need to flash this with all the other facebook inside xperia stuff (Which don't work properly).
you just install this apk as normal.
Wow, that's cool! But I'm on stock ROM. I don't think it will work. Anyway, nice share!

Thank you so much _Sparks, just a question, I only use 2 widgets, so 5 screens are too much. And it even has 4 corners to store apps! So can I edit the apk to make launcher has only 3, or 1 screen? If I can, how to do that?

Hello, my XDA brothers. I'm currently looking for a full screen called ID mod, not an app or The Poppuri MOD:
(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2046086)
I tried the Mod listed in the link and it just wasnt for me. No disrespect to the DEV or anything like that. I'm looking for a similar mod that does'nt have the "black dialer" (see page 3 post 23 in link). I would like the original sammy dialer and contacts. if someone could lead me in the right direction that would be great as well. I searched the forum and google and nothing came up BTW.

Thanks but still have that black background!
Sent from my BE(a)ST.. Samsung Galaxy Note2
Yes of course!
The black background is stored in the apk.
You can change the background.
I'am change the Background in Black_Silver
You make a Mod with tw_background_holo_dark.png in framework / framework-res.apk / res / drawable-nodpi
Look my screenshot!!
I don't believe any other callscreen mods exist.
One of the major problems with the Poppuri Mod (imho) is that there is no way to see how the thumbnail looks on your screen, without having them call you.
In the stock OS there is no 'display the callscreen' option, and it makes reviewing current images difficult, at best. (yes, you get the tiny shrunken down one, but that sucks).
I ended up using an app called Full Screen Caller ID Pro as a result.
@i'm make and change the background in Sotmax Rom there because the background sits there then also changes.
I have no problems with the Full HD Screen Phone.
And I have no problems with change of background.
How should we also see the full picture if you do not like?
The pictures can be cut out and save themselves and the mod will then generate the full-screen image when calling.

I couldn't get the linked mod to work for me either because I have the T-mobile Note II.
I tried Ultimate Call Screen HD Pro, but didn't like the interface. Now I'm on Full Screen Caller ID Pro (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.androminigsm.fsci) which seems to be nicer, but I haven't fully tested it yet.

How about us oldies, with ul before the exploit came out? I mean how to proceed if I would like to put the DRM fix on your ROM, perhaps in the end of the proces?
Sounds promising, got tired of the rectify, do to too many customazatios even though it can be fixed.
Thing to like perhaps:
Black settings.apk framework
Black dialer or aosp dialer
Black in general
Zipallinged perhaps?
Xposed in settings
Theme engine, so we can run CM themes

I have a fix for the resetting audio options,
You need to find the following file:

Delete that file then the settings will stick after reboot.
