Transform your GT-S5282 to a 85% Sony Xperia device - Samsung Galaxy Star

Requirements:
1. A rooted Samsung Galaxy Star.
2. CWM version 6.
Steps:
1. Install Xperia Pirates ROM. For help go to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2748747. 80% of job done. Now its time to do small things that really matter.
2. You can install stock Sony Apps (like a Normal apk). Unfortunately I could not make stock phone and messaging app on our phone. Apps are included in attachments.
3. Although the ROM themes the elements, the progress bar is not that Xperia like, so install Smooth system progressbar (Xposed Module).
4. The Lockscreen Remains unchanged, install Xperia lockscreen from this post, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2687654.
5. What's still missing is the bootanimation, unfortunately I could not find Xperia bootanimation, if you find it, please comment with the link
Some instructions to make the ROM more meaningful and beautiful
1. Change android version to 4.4, because by default it comes with 4.4.2 xperia pirates, but on launching the easter egg, you find 4.4. You can change it by editing build.prop.
2. Keep the font size of the home screen and app drawer at 13.9. you can change it in launcher settings.
3. You can use seeder to reduce lag.
If I have helped, click thanks :laugh:

which phone do you have? Because if you mean for "theme" a file for Themechooser (.apk) in this forum there are some different, that works welll (you can have icons, menù, appearance like xperia S style) and works with minicm7.
I have used this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1652113
the only bug is if you installed only the theme apk (like I'm) that on AlarmClock visualization disappear some part of visualization. This is the only bug that I have found.
I hope that helps.
Check this out! Its Xperia S theme. Not fully compatible to U20i LDPI yet but you can still check it out (subscribe the thread for updates)

[MOD][PORT]Xperia Z Lockscreen For JB

So I stumbled across this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...ide-xperia-z-lockscreen-hdpi-devices-t2189923 and noticed we did not have anything like this for Samsung Galaxy Star. I have successfully ported this to our device. The only rom that I have tested this on is JB Stock Deodex. It probably wont work on other roms.
NOTES FROM ORIGINAL THREAD
This modified android.policy.jar. So please do not try it on other phone models.*If you have other mods in your android.policy.jar, this mod will break it.
*This mod doesn't gives you toggle between Samsung Circle lockscreen and Xperia Z lockscreen. You will get only Xperia Z lockscreen.If you do not know how Xperia Z lockscreen looks like, watch this video prepared by MohammedAzi (included a guide to change lockscreen wallpaper) :*YOUTUBE*Thank you MohamedAzi.
Bugs1) Upon unlocking, Samsung lockscreen's wallpaper is still visible for about 0.3-0.5 second. Solution by JoFury: set fully black wallpaper for samsung lockscreen. Then go to settings - developers option and set windows animation to 0.5 or off. Thanks JoFury.
2) The music control/widget in lockscreen doesn't works with Samsung music player. Install third party apps as workaround.*
3) The music control/widget always show "No Tracks Available". Maybe installing Sony music player would solve it.
4) No shortcut to change Xperia Z lockscreen wallpaper. Workaround:*Solution by RocketSauce83Replace the UxpNxtLockscreen.apk with this version :*http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...php?p=39354512Thanks RocketSauce83Solution by Hyperrunner :*http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...php?p=38960185Thanks Hyperrunner*

[CM10][MOD][ROM] Android Lollipop feel on Xperia X10

Hey guys !
As announced today, I will release a mod for our Xperia X10.
The full review is available here.
You can download it here (mediafire link)
WARNING The rom zip file is a CLOCKWORKMOD BACKUP. Means you musn't flash it as a update.zip. You have to unzip it with your computer to push the "clockworkmod" folder yo your SDCARD. If you don't fail, you must be able to restore my backup with CWM recovery.
Of course, flash the same kernel i used. it's this kernel. Thanks @Achotjan
Maybe this rom works with this kernel too. Thanks @scritch007
Lets list all the apps and features i added (clic show to show x) ):
- Google Search 4 and libs from Lollipop to enable voice recognition.
- Google Fit if you want to lose weight because you spent too much time to compile
- File Manager (The same who was in my previous mod.
- Android 4.2.2 Clock
- Kitkat Fonts
- Titanium backup standard
- White icons on statusbar and Lollipop network icons
- Lollipop launcher
- Nexus 6 Wallpaper
- Cyanogenmod 11 Changelog in about this phone
- ANDROID L PREVIEW, NOT LOLLIPOP FOR NOW easter egg. Using eggster xposed module
- Xposed installer with Xposed Gel Settings, Gravitybox and eggster
- Google Keyboard 4, with marerial design of course
- Android Lollipop Bootanimation
- Google Play Store 5.0.38 with material design
- Overclock to 1267MHZ set on boot, ondemand governor and KSM enabled, for SDE kernel users
- You'll see
- Forgotten it : DPI set to 200
BUGS :
- Some rares random graphic glitches
- Camcorder
- Same as CM10
- Random reboots if you let CPU run @1.2Ghz for some users. To fix it, goto Settings; scroll down to Performance; and change max frequency to 1.1Ghz or lower.
- You tell me
If they are modders able to backport Lollipop settings, deskclock and systemUI to Jellybean 4.1, please PM me to make it awesome
Dont forget the zip file is a backup and not an update.zip.
Install Material design Google keep : http://www.apkmirror.com/apk/google-inc/keep/keep-3-0-03-apk/
This mod is based to @scritch007 CMX10, so it's 4.1.2. It's NOT Lollipop, and not Kitkat. It's themed Jelly Bean.
Happy flashing
Well done on this
I don't use my X10 for anything meaningful anymore these days but might have to give this a shot.

Hope you enjoy it. Will try to mod apps but im noob for this dont expect perfect lollipop IU therefore

Just fired up the ROM. Loving the boot animation! I got into the main homescreen but then it froze and rebooted I know why - it's because as you said above, the default clock speed is 1.2Ghz. My X10 has never been able to handle anything above 1.113Mhz, so unfortunately I can't get into the settings fast enough to change it before it freezes
However, what I can see on the homescreen looks amazing! You've done a fantastic job with the presentation of the ROM.

Flash CMX10 kernel with flashtool and boot the rom with it. I think it will reset the CPU settings.
Thanks buddy
I have 4 invites with 6 days validity to buy the OnePlus One. I want to give it to developers so they can create ROMS for the amazing phone. If you know any developers in search of an invite please let me know. I will be more than happy to share invites with them
Hey guys !
Submit everything you want to see here, i will try to implement it
Cheers
PS: If you know someone able to help me to build a boot.img, and edit it to make it working for various manufacturer roms, please let me know
Hey, when I tried to install the rom, it's great, very great but no sim card detected, I haven't any network.
Have you a solution please?
Thanks a lot.
EDIT : I think it's good now, sim card recognize ! But have you random reboot and looooong freeeze you too?
I can't use the phone more 2 minutes because after, my phone reboot.
Hey guys !
Eggster module has been updated and now with Lollipop easter egg support. Please update eggster in xposed installer and select Lollipop easter egg
Cheers

Maybe because default clock is 1267Mhz. Goto settings; performance and set clock to 1GHz, and make sure you use SDE kernel.
some screenshots or video review of this rom would be very nice.

[THEME] SamSonya v9.2

Hi everyone !
Today I will explain how to install the theme SamSonya v4.8.2 , because we don't have any customs roms or full modded themes to flash through recovery, we will go with "Superuser mod" ! ;- ) I tried last night on my Z3 and it worked perfectly !
If you are not sure of what you are doing; don't go further !! You alone will be responsable in case of problems with your phone ! And above all , remember to make a backup before any manipulations !! I'm not the author of this theme, i'm just sharing this beautiful theme to the Z3 community.
Pre-requisite :
- D6603 Model (If someone can try on other models and tell me if it's working)
- be on firmware 23.0.A.2.93 / 105 (Not tested yet on latest .77 firmware but should works too as it's still android 4.4.4)
- Unlocked bootloader
- Rooted
- Xposed installed ( Link : http://repo.xposed.info/module/de.robv.android.xposed.installer)
- Serajr module installed (v3.3) and "Superuser mod' activated (Link : http://repo.xposed.info/module/com.serajr.xperia.xposed.kk)
Download link :

Are you trying on Odex?
Basiacally its developed for ZL/Z and should change about 90-95% of system interface. On another models superusermod will be required. Tested and fully adapted for: ZL, Z, ZR, Z1, SP, M2Dual, Z2.
Xperia Z2 (with latest 4.4.4) and Z3 are not fully adapted jet. (dialwindow and may be something else)
This variant of theme is for 4.3-4.4.x roms with root, deodex, blackthemed.
Up to now there are 5 variants for blackthemed roms and 3 variants for light.
Full list of changing items you can see while theme applying.
Sorry for english.
I'm still odex, i try to flash the de-odexed firmware .93 on my phone but when i reboot my phone just messed up, i try several times but no luck... So for now, i keep it that way.
I know that Xperia Z3 wasn't include in the model phone list compatible for this theme, but i thought i might give a shot, and even if all the system are not themed for now, it's quite a start and most importantly, it doesn't messed up the phone, so that's a good thing ! I mean no FC or whatsoever...
Maybe if someone have enough knowledge to adapt this theme for our Z3, it will be great !
And by the way, i love the blue keyboard on your screenshot ! Wish i have it on my Z3... That's why we need to get this theme on our Z3.. I'm starting to think that rom custom development will never comes out for our precious...
I think the best would be to take black theme for Z2 as a base, as the system it's almost similar with Z3...
I`m the author of this theme.
Ab keybord: check keyboard skin settings. Now you are using 2-d skin, try 3-d (dark) variant. It should be fully colored by Theme.
Sorry but what is "ab keyboard" ? Can you provide me a link ? That would be easier.

The theme isnt contain 3d party aplications, all changes only in system.
Icons you can find inside theme at the folder "assets"
Do you think that we can manually replace the stock icons by those from your themes ?
EDIT : Nevermind.. I tried to replace "Conversation.apk and¨Phonebook.apk" and it didn't worked as i expected
Would it be possible for you @runels just to take a look to help us to make this theme fully or as least a little more compatible for our Z3 that it is actually ? I can be your tester, and i can provide you the files you need
Even a donation from me is possible if necessary
Why not? If you have some experience on it.
Adaptation to Z3
1- need root, deodex, superusermod and mostly preferable blackthemed phone interface. In this case you should see maximum changes. I think only incall window isnt adapted to Z3. All other items should work perfectly.
2-send me max. number of screenshots where something isnt changing.
Only after this I will see the variants.
Well i'm not a noob, far from it, but i never developped anything, but i like to test it on my phone !!
This theme is update to v8.4.3
Sent from my D6502 using XDA Free mobile app
Yes i know, i have to update the OP.
I already installed it and sadly, it doesn"t change anything... It's exactly themed like the v8.4.2
Any icons are changed...and the blackground of settings, phonebook and messages is (sorry to say this, as i respect the developper of this theme) quite ugly. Maybe it's because it's not fully compatible for our Z3 yet that it looks like that but i hope someone will change it very soon !
I blakthemed the phone isn't possible yet without Custom Rom like "Criskelo Rom", or maybe by modding the system framework.apk
First of all, you need to read the Theme changelog. Thats why you cant find changes. All current versions and changelog: http://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=436246&view=findpost&p=28412348 (sorry, but only in russian for the moment)
Current verson 8.5 (for blackthemed)
https://cloud.mail.ru/public/fa812e464c13/SamSonya-blue-v8.5Xperia.apk
https://cloud.mail.ru/public/2266dcc4c4ca/SamSonya-blue-v8.5.apk
Thanks for your answer
But what the difference between those 2 links you just provide ? For me, it looks like these 2 themes are the same.
Maybe you can help me @runels, i'm not deodexed right now cause i didn't succeed to get the deodexed .93fw working on my Z3... If i was deodexed, do you think that the theme will worked better ? I mean, myabe more stuff will be themed ?
Or do i have to get absolutely Blackthemed settings framework/Custom rom for the theme to be successfully working ?

Let me have a guess...
Android v 4.2.2
Based on Xperia v2 ROM ( from the A919 Tool app icon and the normal nav bar icons in screenshot no. 2, and also the background in screenshot no. 1 where a message is seen saying that " Actually I was bored with Xperia v2 ROM so I made this ROM. " )
Changed Framework apk and systemui apk
Added Samsung Apps like the launcher and calendar, etc.
Updated GmsCore.apk (or Google Play Services to be simple)
Did not edit and/or change the data folder
Followed any MTK porting guide
Did a quick port today ( from the date and time in the screenshots )
Better RAM management -- Tweaked minfree values would be my guess
Did not change the Flashlight app (TinnoLED.apk)
Brighter Flashlight -- Not as easy as he hoped. He would need some redirection of app processing power to the flashlight app to increase its importance, and thereby increase the flashlight brightness. I'm guessing he hasn't done that, so you'd better remove that line.
Did not change the default time zone in build.prop settings (It is set to phillipines time. )
Neat. Good attempt.
Bugs :
Transparent Status Bar
From the screenshots, it is apparent that the Status Bar isn't transparent. You mean that the background of the Notifications panel is transparent. Status Bar transparency refers to the status bar having the colour of the app's upper part. Like in the first screenshot, the status bar (the part with the battery charging info, network signal info, clock, etc.) should have the colour of the app. (like its background should have whatsapp's green colour while running whatsapp)
But, that is more of a misconception than a bug.
Here is a bug which he cannot fix.
3g support on both SIMs.
For that, you need hardware support. It is wrongly mentioned in the Xperia ROM v2 too. I have tried and tested that in almost all other ROMs like MIUI v5, Xperia ROM v2, Stock ROM, etc. and it all comes down to the same thing. YOU NEED HARDWARE SUPPORT FOR 3G IN BOTH SIMS.
A piece of advice : Do not bet that there won't be an bugs at all. Each and every ROM might have a bug that the developer might have overlooked.
Here are some things your friend might have done or should do if he hasn't done yet.
Changing the build.prop setting of ro.product.**** to that of Karbonn's from MyPhone Agua Cyclone ( Xperia ROM v2 was built on that phone's ROM )
Add Material Design Apps from Apkmirror like Gmail 5.0, Maps, etc.
Try porting Kitkat ROMs to Jelly Bean based devices by modifying the installation procedure to include the priv-app folder
Try porting CyanogenMod to this device
Help me in porting Carbon ROM and/or CyanogenMod 12 to this device.
Mention how he got the updater script to work properly and install the ROM perfectly in TWRP and Philz Recovery
Sign the ROM using ZipSigner app and then upload it.
Add more features to it
Here are a few suggestions :
Update the version of SuperSU and then install it.
Make the Xposed Framework built-in. ( Not to be installed manually after installing the ROM )
Pre-install GravityBox or XBlast tools.
Odex the apps folder for better RAM usage
Increase the wifi supplicant scan interval
Throw in some paid apps for free.
Increase the net buffer size
Add the X-Reality engine
ZipAlign all apks.
Add some more fonts ( other than Choco cookie )
Add more sounds for ringtones, audio, etc.
Mention all these to him, and if possible, ask him whether he could help me to develop other ROMs for this device.
BRO thanks for your opinions and thought

Update the version of SuperSU and then install it.
Make the Xposed Framework built-in. ( Not to be installed manually after installing the ROM )
Pre-install GravityBox or XBlast tools.
Odex the apps folder for better RAM usage
Increase the wifi supplicant scan interval
Throw in some paid apps for free.
Increase the net buffer size
Add the X-Reality engine
ZipAlign all apks.
Add some more fonts ( other than Choco cookie )
Add more sounds for ringtones, audio, etc.
Mention all these to him, and if possible, ask him whether he could help me to develop other ROMs for this device.

Let me have a guess...
Android v 4.2.2
Based on Xperia v2 ROM ( from the A919 Tool app icon and the normal nav bar icons in screenshot no. 2, and also the background in screenshot no. 1 where a message is seen saying that " Actually I was bored with Xperia v2 ROM so I made this ROM. " )
Changed Framework apk and systemui apk
Added Samsung Apps like the launcher and calendar, etc.
Updated GmsCore.apk (or Google Play Services to be simple)
Did not edit and/or change the data folder
Followed any MTK porting guide
Did a quick port today ( from the date and time in the screenshots )
Better RAM management -- Tweaked minfree values would be my guess
Did not change the Flashlight app (TinnoLED.apk)
Brighter Flashlight -- Not as easy as he hoped. He would need some redirection of app processing power to the flashlight app to increase its importance, and thereby increase the flashlight brightness. I'm guessing he hasn't done that, so you'd better remove that line.
Did not change the default time zone in build.prop settings (It is set to phillipines time. )
Neat. Good attempt.
Bugs :
Transparent Status Bar
From the screenshots, it is apparent that the Status Bar isn't transparent. You mean that the background of the Notifications panel is transparent. Status Bar transparency refers to the status bar having the colour of the app's upper part. Like in the first screenshot, the status bar (the part with the battery charging info, network signal info, clock, etc.) should have the colour of the app. (like its background should have whatsapp's green colour while running whatsapp)
But, that is more of a misconception than a bug.
Here is a bug which he cannot fix.
3g support on both SIMs.
For that, you need hardware support. It is wrongly mentioned in the Xperia ROM v2 too. I have tried and tested that in almost all other ROMs like MIUI v5, Xperia ROM v2, Stock ROM, etc. and it all comes down to the same thing. YOU NEED HARDWARE SUPPORT FOR 3G IN BOTH SIMS.
A piece of advice : Do not bet that there won't be an bugs at all. Each and every ROM might have a bug that the developer might have overlooked.
Here are some things your friend might have done or should do if he hasn't done yet.
Changing the build.prop setting of ro.product.**** to that of Karbonn's from MyPhone Agua Cyclone ( Xperia ROM v2 was built on that phone's ROM )
Add Material Design Apps from Apkmirror like Gmail 5.0, Maps, etc.
Try porting Kitkat ROMs to Jelly Bean based devices by modifying the installation procedure to include the priv-app folder
Try porting CyanogenMod to this device
Help me in porting Carbon ROM and/or CyanogenMod 12 to this device.
Mention how he got the updater script to work properly and install the ROM perfectly in TWRP and Philz Recovery
Sign the ROM using ZipSigner app and then upload it.

See i ported this Material L for unite 2 (a106) for our s5+ it was ported successfully and also booted up i used it for More than 3 days not found any other bug except Camera and flashlight..I changed some of its Lib files With Stock and also changed its gallery to stock and tried many other methods but still the cam bug didnt fixed..Else everything working really good.whenever i opens the cam it says unfortunately camera has stopped else everything works at its best...
Yeah, I just thought I should type out my thoughts about the ROM and then wait and see your reply. Sorry for that, though.
---------- Post added at 11:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:06 PM ----------
You used some MTK porting guide, didn't you ?
Another thing, what do you mean by Material L ? Do you mean to say that you have ported an Android L ROM to this phone ?
I think you have just ported some ROM with just the Material Design UI, as seen in the screenshots (They do not have the Android L Navigation Bar Buttons. )
You could try replacing the permissions in that, as most likely, that would be the root cause of many such errors. A permission file related to the camera settings could be improperly coded, and/or might have a bad file, either corrupt or something like that.
I just needed this tiny favour from you of creating a proper, working update-binary and updater-script inside a META-INF folder which can be used for all my ROMs. If that is over, you'll be seeing those ROMs on XDA quite soon.
Another thing. In the CyanogenMod 12 Lollipop ROM which I am porting, the apps folder has individual folders for each app. So, the flashlight app is in system/app/flashlight/flashlight.apk . Could that be the cause of the ROM not installing properly ? I'm going mad over that as that was the first time I have seen any ROM with apps grouped like that.
Thanks in advance for your contribution.
