Hopefully some great themers here can help me in the right direction.
I've already spent some times reading about how to decompile, compile etc.
the one i tried is TMA (tickle my android), first i got several problems because he wouldn't decompile framework-res. I've found out that you need to install the semc....-res file before you can decompile framework-res and the other way the same.
so that's working great now, and it also recompiles and i can make a flashable zip but i keeps getting in bootloop.
i've found out that there's something special about sony's framework-res and these problems can happen but i can't seem to find the right way for the Xperia T to solve this problem.
could someone tell me how or direct me to guides that are suitable for the Xperia T?
I've tried theming several times and i always get stuck somewhere the process but i really want to learn!
thanks in advance for all the help..

If i was being funny, i would have told you to use the search function at the top of the page.
When your navigating through your phone it can be quite difficult to search, find and post links for people. Id rather just post a whole load of links in one go as it's quicker and easier.
I didnt have to respond to you, im busy repairing fridges and took a quick break, maybe i shouldnt have bothered. Or maybe i just wont respond anymore and keep what i know to myself.

no, no, i'm sorry.. i thought you just wanted to link me to google for asking a "stupid" question.
my bad, please forgive me!
i really appreciate your help.
You need to do this first -> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=41373722&postcount=2
After that you can do anything you want in your framework, wether theming or modding.
Edit: hehehe I guess dully nailed it already LoL, my given link is the same actually
Tapatalked from my bricked TX
thank you both, i took me some time and errors but i've finally got it working.
first i tried with stock framework to learn the decompiling/compiling signing process and it worked.
now i'm trying e few mods, my first one doesn't work (50% transparent statusbar), i did this mod thru TMA (which has this mod as option).
maybe google it and make the mod myself..
hmm second one doesn't work either, i looked thru google on how to remove the statusbar clock. it all went well(recompiling and flashing) but the clock is still there..

Thanks..
Search. Someone posted up a tutorial on how to do exactly what you're asking.
Then again, I doubt many people will want to use a ROM made by someone who doesn't think to search on his own in the first place. Probably not the sign of a thorough developer.

Stericson started a thread (use the search function to search for threads started by him) about how to sign files and ROMs... I would start there and you'll probably find information on building ROMs as well.
I would also check the Google developer forums (don't know the URL) for information on building a ROM for Android. You'll need to download and install several items to your computer to create the appropriate environment to build.

This might be the completely the wrong place, but can someone do my a huge favor and modify my SystemUI.apk to remove the clock and possibly the battery. I have tried using baksmali and apktool but i must be doing something wrong, thanks.
Yep, it's the completely wrong place.

Did you have a look there ? ( v-b-n thread)
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2233991
Cheers.
Yeah I looked at that, and i can decompile the apk, but i get errors, im thinking it might have something to do with, proprietary framework files i need, which i don't have. And thanks Mike1986, I will go on your IRC now.
Can anyone do me a huge favour, could someone please remove the clock and the battery from the statusbar. Looking at this Remove Clock it guides people through on how to do it, I cant as I seem to be unable too, can anyone help.
This isnt asking for help, this is asking for someone to do it for you which is different. If you dont wanna understand the process, you probably shouldnt be asking for the mod
Talk to mike on IRC to begin with
Make sure you install the framework files for the One (pull it from /system/framework) to apktool and THEN try decompiling it
Hi try this one.
Dont work mate, but thanks anyways.
Hi guys
Enough of the bootanimations now I have done way too may and now I want to learn about building ROM. I want to design my own custom ROM, want to create it's own Kernel (just for information how to be advanced ) create own custom recovery, setting up GApps support editing updater script, build.prop everything.
I am a BIG TIME NOOB in programming so I want that I should be told every step of how to program even commands (kidding)
But I really have no idea with programming that much. All I know is to use dsixda's kitchen and few other NORMAL tweaks.
I know that there are all sorts of guides out there by great people like doomlord, mjraider etc( sorry know these two names only)
I want a full compact and complete package of links if anyone can provide me pretty please! I have searched s lot and all I found i was a big ZERO.If you are gonna say that it requires patience the test me I have a lot and dedication towards my work I'm a quick learner (proof you know as my bootanimations) so please bear with me ONCE! Provide a compelete set of BEST GUIDES OUT ON XDA FORUM and youtube video links if any that can teach how to to build a custom rom in which I can carry out themeing and other tweaks such as modding the status bar and battery icons etc. How to set my signature on ROM. EVERYTHING! I don't know much but you guys know what to cover in everything! SO PLEASE MY HUMBLEST REQUEST TO ALL JUST BEAR WITH ME ONCE I WILL BE HIGHLY OBLIGED!
Special Request to Mjraider : Sir I know you occasionally visit these threads and answer the questions, you are one of the biggest names here so please consider my request and help me once, I will be highly obliged:victory::angel:
My device
Xperia SP C5302
Rooted ** Unlocked Bootloader

@mrjraider hero around this corner
Dude, use the guides. No one can teach step by step of everything. Just read n learn is my best advice to you.
trial and error + research is the way how i have learned it.

First of all thanks for the reply.
Secondly that is what I mentioned in the thread that I searched XDA but couldn't find a single worthy guide that can actually define andything for eg updater script, tried googling things go way over my head :silly: You guys keep posting guides tweaks and tricks. That is why I requested that you must be knowing the best guides out that have all the information, I just ask that I want a complete bunch of links of guides here in reply so that I can go out in a flow.

Thank you for replying
I know that's the actual way, I also know that it isn't easy all I ask is for that someone just guide me the path like This is the way and I'll walk on it.
Just a guidance and that can be done by giving out the links here so that I can start and get going.

I only need an cape i think??
Haha. Thanks...
As a reply:
Just try. Keep a backup safe, follow the instructions and not much can go wrong
Edit: After I reread your question:
I cannt help you much but I can see what I can do. First you need to start. I have some update.script and adb knowledge so I can help you with that. But I am not a developer (I am a nurse actually )

That's what I am talking about!
Is there some guide or something that explains update.script and it's editing not in detail if then informative enough for me to begin with.
As far as adb is concerned then for that too a guide (I asks for too many guides sorry )

Some nice guides here. Can go through them to see whether there's anything that might help you.
A guide about flashable zips/updater-script from there. See this also.
Thanks a lot man!
You really helped me!

There is no lock phone.apk in B805.. Where should it be located?!

In stock folder ..
When I updated P7 to unofficial lollipop it was there but I reverted quite while ago due to issues..but missing that feature u just tap it and phone is locked..cool
I assume it is not an app itself. Try to create a shortcut with e.g. quickshortcutmaker. It may take a while until you find it, but I believe it is possible.
No it's not there..
So, I looked it up for you. Under Lollipop it's located at 'screen lock' (I don't know how it is called in English). The point on the Top ('Display Sperre') is it.
but man i have mate7 and i said i need someone to extract it and pot it .. i am using 4.4.2 android..
so exctract the apk up it here if u can
In the last post you wrote that you have a P7?! You did not wrote anything about porting or extracting. First you wanted just the icon, then the shortcut and now.. Wtf!
Just describe a little more detailed what you want at the beginning and be more friendly. Sorry, but I really don't want to help you this way. I assume, you did not even look after what I described in the last post.
