ICS Request! - Xperia Play Themes and Apps

We all know theres the beta ROM of ICS on the web for the 2011 Xperia range, but you need a Phone with a unlocked bootloader, but im thinking, could someone pull out the apps (browser, music, widgets, launcher etc) & theme files (systemUI, framework-res etc) not affecting the actual base of the system but how it looks & feels & put it in a ZIP FILE for use through ClockworkMod Recovery on locked bootloaders... I know theres ICS themes & stuff but their just stock apps with different colours (blue & black) & different icons....
If its any help I found this in the Development section - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1431608
I really like the Xperia Play forums, but most of us are limited as we have bootloaders that cant be unlocked :/

The Framework Is different and its based on a different Kernel so no if it was that easy then what's the point in having a Unlocked b/l

ICS Apps just dont work with GB. Thats the point.

They still would need dependencies that GB doesn't have, and they'd still require a higher SDK build than GB has. You or someone knowledgeable can try to strip off the ICS dependencies and rebuild the APK to make it compatible with a lower SDK number. That would be one hell of a lot of work, which would only make sense if there was really no way to get ICS in our device, but fortunately it's not our case.

Its not very wise to start mixing and maxing frameworks from different ROMs. Also I have put alot of work into my ROM, and though I dont mind, if anyone wants to use it in parts or as a whole .... Just PM ME. Like the Matrix theme going on, it looks great , and has some Bionix goodness baked into it. Take it "account disabled" into thought, and just rest assured its for a reason.

[Q] Ice Cream Sandwich live wallpaper

Where I can find that live wallpaper?
It's shown in this video, for example: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FRtVxUoHoEI
It would be VERY great to having it on my Sensation.
Thanks in advance.
My best guess would be u have to dl ICS system dump, find the wallpaper, port it so it can run on GB and there u have it!

I've looked into doing it, but considering I have no idea how to recompile an apk and such I didn't get very far. From what I learned you have to change a line of coding in the manifest.xml file from ICS 4.0 to GB 2.3. I'm sure someone who has the knowledge can accomplish this.

How do I get wallpaper from gtg's Infused rom

Hi everyone. I've been reading around xda for quite a while and would first like to say thanks to all the great devs and others on here who have really helped to make the infuse an even better phone. Ok so this is my first post so I hope I have the right section. My question: is it possible to pull the sgs2 wallpaper pack from gtg's Infused rom? I've searched everywhere and can't find a wallpaper pack like it. I'm trying to complete my sgs2 look on my infuse with CM7 and wizmod2 theme. Thanks for any help!
Sent from my SGH-I997 using xda premium
Try searching for the wallpapers in the rom zip. Normal locations are the framework apk if its just one. Or a separate folder in the ROM if they are multiple.

Yes, but only selective apps. You may, but should be careful with the android build version. Some apps are compiled from sources, and those might not be compatible when taken from one ROM to another. But others, like add on apps, can be taken.

You can use tw4.5 which is a modded version for any phone but I've found it to be buggy. there is also a framework mod that can be done to get it all working. I'm actually gonna play with that tonight.

I think the tree structure within framework.jar is a bit different but it may still work, I still haven't tested it, I got distracted. you can use apk tool or smali to decompile it, baksmali or apk tool to compiled it.
I don't mess with apk manager because it tries to do to much for you and isn't really useful because the apps don't usually work when you are done, you wind up having to pull files from the Finnished apk and dropping them in a copy of the original because the signing doesn't work with system apps.

THANKS A LOT for posting!!! Downloading now (gah I hate that 115 website the speeds are SO SLOW)
Excellent! This is likely a leak for the ME865 since it is hosted on a Chinese file site, but anything could help us at this point. I'm also downloading the file, but at this rate it will take 1-2 hours to finish....

Once we get it I would not recommend flashing it in fastboot. To begin with, if you flashed the whole thing and it worked then you might never be able to flash back to GB or update to final ICS. However I highly doubt that it would flash due to partition signature differences...
If it's in a ROM.zip format then I would flash it but be wary... make sure that it's rooted (search in /system/bin and /system/xbin for "su") because we might not be able to root this firmware.

Hi
Why did you base RemICS on CM9 and not on Erikmm's Nexus S ROM?
Erik's ROM should be pure Sammy ROM and S-voice must work there much better with all Sammy stuff.
Just asking/suggesting, not trolling.
