[MOD][ZipThemer][For XPERIA ROM] Mod your ROM with freedom!
What part of your phone you mod? Feel free to mod them yourself within one minute!
For convenience, the ZipThemer thread is split into 2 parts.
Requirements:
1. Rooted Sony Ericsson XPERIA 2011 phone
2. The mods here must compatible with GingerBread XPERIA ROM (or other cooked XPERIA ROMs like nerodroid ROM, HybROM...) of Live With Walkman, XPERIA Mini, XPERIA Mini Pro and XPERIA Active. In case if the mods are compatible to other XPERIA Phones or SONY ICS ROM, I will mention for each of them.
3. ClockWorkMod Recovery
(if you don't have one, search CWM auto installer on google and download.)
Procedures
1. Download the ZipThemerpackage.zip in the attachments below, extract the zip and install ZipThemer.apk, create a new folder called
ZipThemer folder to the root of your sdcard, and put the
edify folder in ZipThemerpackage.zip into the
ZipThemer folder!
2. Download the ideal mod zip(s) (which is non-flashable!) for you and put them to the ZipThemer folder! (Just download the one you like)
3. Open ZipThemer app and do the following :[Menu]>[Settings]>[Update script format]>Choose[Edify-Wt19i]! (It doesn't matter if your phone is not Wt19i, it will always work if your phone is a Sony Ericsson phone, and it have ClockWorkMod Recovery.)
4. In the main UI of ZipThemer, press [+Theme] button and choose the mod zip(s) you want to use (you may add multiple mod zip)
5. Click [Build!] button, the app will ask you whether to build an undo zip, click yes for the lowest risk.
6. Reboot to ClockWorkMod Recovery, [install zip from SD card], choose the update .zip which is at the root of sdcard and install it!
7. Enjoy!!
Details of mods:
Battery Percentage Mod: (OK for all XPERIA ROM of all XPERIA Phone) (mdpi + hdpi)
Mod the battery percentage style of your SystemUI.apk, work perfectly if your SystemUI have modded to have battery%. If your SystemUI do not have battery%, the SystemUI battery will appear as 5 intervals.(5 10 15 20...) For ICS users please download HDPI version for ICS.
DefaultThemesMod (Cosmic Flow style):
Mod you DefaultThemes.apk, all background of colours of choice of your phone will be changed to Cosmic Flow Live Wallpaper style (of course static). See screen capture.
Dialog animation mod: (Any Phone, Any ROM)
Change the animation of dialog appera and disappear (for example power menu) for any ROM.
ICS style battery: (All Phone, All ROM, but not sure, please must create undo .zip in ZipThemer for safety.) UPDATED !! It works now.
Only if you don't have 1% battery mod. Change the battery icon in status bar to the ICS blue one.
ICS SystemUI: (All 320*480 Phone, All ROM, but not sure, please must create undo .zip in ZipThemer for safety.)
Mod the SystemUI.apk to ICS style. Not include ICS battery. Download and Add the ICS battery if you want.
ICY Ericsson 3: (All 320*480 Phone, All ROM, but not sure, please must create undo .zip in ZipThemer for safety.)
ALMOST fully mod your phone to ICS style!
ICY Ericsson lite 2: (All 320*480 Phone, All ROM, but not sure, please must create undo .zip in ZipThemer for safety.)
Most things not modded. Only the images I think beautiful is added. [MENU] Icons and background, overscroll glow textbox handle pins, ICS pattern lock, toast frame, loading circle are changed to ICS style.
Right aligned clock in status bar: (OK for all XPERIA ROM)
This turn the clock back to the right of your status bar. For those who don't want the clock at the center of status bar.
SystemUI no carrier label: (OK for All XPERIA ROMs of all XPERIA Phone)
This will remove the carrier label from your SystemUI, must work with 's Mini mod and stock SystemUI.
XPERIA S
xxxxxxxxx app icon for stock:
Mod the app icon of the app to XPERIA S style.
XPERIA S Lock Screen Clock font: (OK for All XPERIA ROMs of XPERIA Phone)
Change Lock Screen Clock Font to the XPERIA S one.
XPERIA S Lock Screen: (OK for All XPERIA ROMs of all 320*480 XPERIA Phone)
Change Lock Screen the XPERIA S style. Same as other mods you can find, there are some size mismatches. So I think XPERIA Stock Lock Screen is better.
XPERIA stock Lock Screen: (OK for All XPERIA ROMs of all 320*480 XPERIA Phone)
Change the Lock Screen to XPERIA stock look.
ICS style SystemUI QuickPanel icons: (Only if you already have mini mod QuickPanel of like-p's)
Change the icon of QuickPanel to ICS style. I can't test it because I'm using official sony ics port, so please make a backup zip also in ZipThemer for lowest risk.
XPERIA style SystemUI QuickPanel icons: (Only if you already have mini mod QuickPanel of like-p's)
Change the icon of QuickPanel to XPERIA style.
Please be patient to wait for new mod zips. It needs time to think a new mod, finding images, produce a new zip and upload the files. I can't think of any new ideas what to mod. May anyone tell me what mod to post? Currently modding ICS animation on gingerbread isn't possible because edit of resources.arsc is needed.

ZipThemer App. This app is not created by me. I only created the mod zips actually.
The images of battery icon mod and quickpanel were not created myself, but I really forgotten who's the creator. Sorry and thanks to them, I hope they'll forgive me.
