Sony Ericsson was wonderful enough to include a stock theme chooser in our Xperia Plays so I have wondered why are we not customizing them? I see no threads about this at all or where we can share themes for our stock manager so I wanted to start one.
The process of customizing the stock theme manager is very simple and can be done by swapping out pngs within the DefaultThemes.apk. (Simply unzip, swap pics, & rezip)The images are located in "res/drawable-hdpi" folder.These "themes" are not full themes but instead they only affect the background of the dialer, contacts, alarms, calculator, stock messaging app, stock calendar, settings, & music app, & can be used with other themes (i.e ICS).
I do not know how to change the name of the preview images in manager (i.e. Fluorite, orchid, ruby, flow, sunflower, onyx ,& willow) as of yet, but I think I need to edit xml to change this. I would like to get some feedback on this and hope someone will enjoy the customized themes I made. (I have only replaced the stock images so I did not create the wallpapers or images.)
To install this:
1. Your phone must be ROOTED and you should have Root Explorer app(or other Root browser) from market.
2. You should make a backup of your phones DefaultThemes.apk file that is found in System/app folder (but I have included it to download also if you like)
3. You need to change permissions of the file before you move it into its folder. (Picture is included to show the correct permissions)
4. Lastly replace file and reboot phone. Once rebooted you should have new themes (modified themes) in stock theme manager.
Many Screenshots are below. Again...Feedback is appreciated
There are 2 customized versions and the original SE 2.3.4 Default Themes apk. Basically 14 new themes here.
V.2 Custom Themes http://db.tt/oO3RykwG
V. 3 Custom Themes http://db.tt/7YFiAdd7
And Sony Ericsson Stock Original http://db.tt/oWxJ87dU
If dropbox links are not working let me know and I will re-create links or find another way to share.
Got your PM mate, wow thanks I was actually looking for this last week haha will check it out properly later but is bookmarked for now

No problem. I figure there are some really good themes posted here like ICS, Galaxy s2, & someone even just did motoblur. They all put in a lot of work & they came out great.(I use ICS personally). So I thought if I made custom themes for the manager it makes them look even better imo. If you have some images that you want to add or suggestions let me know & ill see what I can do.

This is true, with great dedication you can create your own rom...kanged or not if you want to develop you have to make sure the rom you ask people to flash and test...does not harm their phone. Number one rule of posting a rom: Make sure it does not break the users phone.
Is true what u wrote I have i9505 and I'm using what I posted with few improved things like sound kernel and appd

@Laurentiu27 Please review the rules of XDA. Specifically this.
12. Using the work of others.
If you are developing something that is based on the work of another Member, you MUST first seek their permission, and you must give credit to the member whose work you used. If a dispute occurs about who developed / created a piece of work, first try to settle the matter by private message and NOT in open forum. If this fails then you may contact a moderator with clear evidence that the work was created by you.
Convincing evidence will result in copied work being removed. If there is no clear evidence you created the work then in the spirit of sharing all work will remain posted on the forums.
As an addition, developers have the right to hold exclusivity over their work for as long as it is deemed necessary by the dev or freely share it. However, if the work is claimed as exclusive, it must remain as such. No selective sharing will be allowed (ie allowing certain people to use it and not others). Should the dev decide to start sharing the work with others, the work automatically becomes fair game for all to use.
In regards to permissions, same rules remain for this but if permission was already given, unless there is a very valid reason, it cannot be revoked (same applies to major updates on the work). Under that same premise, permissions cannot be denied unless the work is exclusive or under severe circumstances.
In plain English: If you want to keep your work exclusive, go for it. However, if you are going to share your work, do it fairly.
These rules apply to all software posted on XDA (including but not limited to ROMs, RUUs, apps, games, kernels, themes, icons, etc) unless that software comes with a license that waives these rules.

great,so we have to flash twice if we need the chinese stuff?
Thx for new update
Factory reset, clean install , everything works great it seems, but not security center, vwhen setting apps to startup, eg. Apex, kernel tweaker, sidebar, etc. Nothing get granted super user at boot, even though super su 2..16 is updated, and su working fine else! ?
Tried copy su xbin to bin like before but makes no difference, nothing starts up?
But it's definiatly smoother and faster overall, than previous version
Any idea what to do about autostart?
Nice job The new rights management allow unified partition?
Thanks a lot for sharing. Found few bugs.
1) Not able to change the lockscreen wallpaper
2)double tapping on the home button to lock the screen doesnt work.
3)not able to use the blur effect on the home screen wallpaper
Liked the new camera app, it looks cool waiting for a bug free version
Would the camera app from this work on the international 4.4 rom?
If yes, then could someone post the apk? I would love to try it out. Thanks.

Off course not, none would be on cos, if camera/maxaudio just was a copy apk to system/app/folder. ..sorry bro!
But try yourself, dl zip copy it from system/app folder to your own system and see !
Will test this later. I tested the other repack on OPPO forum but there were 3 issues.
Supersu don't work.. Need kinguser
Need to add prefix to telephone number for sms to be recognized
Switchr app doesn't work!
With this one I had endless FC's of Google Play Services...did two clean installs always ended in FC-loop. With the other repack from Oppo forum SuperSU works for me, didn't flash Kingroot.
Tested. Switchr not working.... Reverted back to v1.1.

I guess the pa gaaps nano is not compatible with chinese kitkat Cos. I will test if the google apks from Cos kitkat international if it will work.
1. "Unfortunately, Phone has stopped" - I can't make calls with this repack (X9006). (If you have this problem you can make calls via the Contacts app or a different Dial app)
2. Camera - The only mode available for me is Normal, when I click Add only a blank Plugin Playstore window opens up - I can't download any other modes...
-------- SOLVED: Install APKs from this post: http://www.oppoforums.com/threads/coloros-kitkat-ota-33-gapps-11-01.22048/page-5#post-292285
-------- or go to system/reserve and install the apk files from there..
3. Camera - Voice Shot is not working
4. Google Location service and GPS causes "Unfortunately, Google Play services has stopped" error message to appear over and over again - it literally blocks you from doing anything with the phone.
5. Security Center - App Encryption is not working - if you encrypt/decrypt any app it does not get saved - it stays encrypted or not encrypted.
6. YouTube is bugged - you cannot play any video

Hello guys! 2 days ago i was away from home and i wanted to watch a football match! I had my 12.2 screen great wifi network but the problem is that the samsung browser chrome or mozilla dont support flash content. After a small search i found my solution and i just share to everyone because we have a very nice big screen so we can use it and for this.
Steps!!!
1) Install flash player apk from here https://mega.co.nz/#!FsgAlBQK!8Ob18zfamGYc4RDKgu1bWtOVdMO5yaN9xv9x2SLrZlQ (It is a mega.co link so if you try to download from mobile you must have and the app from the google play store)
2)Install from Gplay store the latest dolphin browser.
3)Open it and go to settings (press menu button or if you have the recent button press it untill you see the new menu) -> settings -> Web content -> second row says flash player change this to always on.
4)Restart your browser and check at any flash page (in my case sportlemon with football) and check if it works!
Thats it!
This thread has basically been around since July 2012..
