※Do this when you completely understand this.
This is not for people who are noob to phone and computer things.
This is a framework.jar mod which will affect on overall scrolling.
I've searched through several references and found some modification.
By following steps below, you will modify your rom's framework.jar.
Ok, so here's everything you need before start.
1. framework.jar of your phone. (Deodexed ROM needed)
2. Java software Development Kit
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk-7u2-download-1377129.html
3. smali/baksmali tool (Thanks to the Korean guy, 'vorcot')
http://chrisdube.com/downloads/baksmalimanager.zip
4. Text editor - Window basic text editor can be used..but I recommend Notepad++
http://notepad-plus-plus.org/
5. Program which can extract .jar file. (I prefer 7zip)
6. File manager which can access to phone's internal system.
(Like root explorer)
7. Your rom's original zip under SDcard for in case of bootloop.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
A. Basic steps.
1. Unzip the smali/baksmali tool to certain folder and put the framework.jar in same folder.
2. Run baksmali manager.bat.
3. Select framework.jar by pressing 4 -> 2 in main menu.
4. Press 1 to Baksmali the framework.jar.
5. Wait.
6. Make it sure that new 'framework' folder is created and files inside it. (Don't close the baksmali manager window yet!)
B. Modification Steps
Smooth scroll mod
THIS IS ONLY FOR STOCK ROM AND ROM's NOT BASED ON CM7

- Some android applications have some lag while scrolling.
I found out that garbage collector works too much, when I scroll.
I googled about it and found the 'scrollingcache' function inside android making this problem.
Some application developers recommend disabling 'scrollingcache' in app's internal config.
But not all applications have disabled scrollingcache.
So this will disable the scrollingcache throughout the Android OS.
All apps will have no problem with scrollingcache.
I've had scrolling improvements with Facebook, PlayerPro, PowerAmp, Gallery, etc.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Here's what you have to modify:
1. Open the framework/android/widget/AbsListView.smali with text editor.
2. Search through 'ScrollingCache' and change it like below screenshot.

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3. Press the text editor's save button if you finished.
C. Finishing steps.
1. Come back to baksmali manager window.
2. Press 2 to smali.
3. Wait. (It will create classes.dex file after finish)
4. Open the framework.jar file with 7zip.
5. Overwrite the classes.dex file inside the framework.jar.
(You can just drag&drop the classes.dex file to 7zip window.)
D. Installing steps.
1. Put modified framework.jar to your phone's sdcard.
2. Open the phone's file manager which have root access and copy the modified framework.jar to /system.
3. Set permission to rw-r--r-- or like this:
4. Move it to /system/framework. (Select yes for overwrite.)
5. Reboot.

Could you please teach me about 007a theme.zip-for future use- why is not "framework directory" set under "system directory"? and why is only "service.jar" manually copied?
Anyway grateful to your work and clicked "thanks".

The .zip theme is a way, using the recovery menu, to apply themes with ease...I don't know exactly how it works...
About the framewor directory not being set under system directory I didn't understand, could you please rephrase it??
and finally the service.jar is a file that is there only to change the color on the date on the status bar... and it's the only file that needs to be manually copied because I couldn't create a .zip file that included it....
Hope you like it and thanks for the thanks
Thank you for reply and sorry for poor sentence.
I only hope to understand why default directory structure is not maintained within 007a_theme.zip,
whereas "/system/framework/framework-res.apk"
I have no other purpose,this is simple interest.
I'm not quite sure I understood you but I think you mean inside the. zip file?? If so, the zip file is not a complete image, it's just a theme file that updates the current ROM, but within the system the structure remains the same...

Can I run this standalone on the default rom?

Yes, this is the CarDock.apk provided in the AOSP ROM in the apps folder, you just have to install it through adb....

Which metod have you used??
Either way my first suggestion is to get to the recovery menu and restore your backup and try again...
I've tested it in other xperia I have and it works perfectly... remembering that this will only work in J's AOSP 2.1 007a ROM
A quick question if i may before i begin and id like to try it using the unzip to xrecovery menu then restore method.
Im guessing the location for unzipping is inside sdcard/xrecovery/backup/ (which ever date time etc not just making a new folder under sdcard/xrecovery/backup then unzip here?
I hope you understand what i mean
Thanks for your time and effort for the theme btw!

All you need to do is unzip the folder (/2.1 007a AOSP RMR) on the zip file to sdcard/xrecovery/backup/ there's no need for dates or anything else, just unzip the folder and restore....
Remember to make a backup of your own before proceding....
Good luck, hope you like it and I'll be happy to help in anything else you need...
Sorry im not quite sure if you understood or i might being a little slow as its 3am uk time.
So its just into the backup folder not the one where the back up is made with.
Sorry for my confusion

Yep, in the end your folder structure needs to be /sdcard/xrecovery/backup/2.1 007a AOSP RMR
inside this folder you have the cache.img, data.img, nandroid.md5 and system.img
and no worries about the confusion, it's 1 am here in Brazil, I'm not at my sharpest either....
i'm using the xrecory method, which mentioned to update to custom zip ..
anyway, if i'm restored from your image, will all of my previously apps gone ?
if i've been already done app2sd, will it crash with your apps ?
thanks ...
*update :
I'm trying to use your first method by extracting your file to xrecovery/backup ..
but, when i'm trying to restore it, the xrecovery says that md5 mismatch

Hi Guys,
Finally I am ready with first part of My first Theme, based on Crysis revolution.
But I have made additional changes also to make it more colourful.
I am calling it as Ultimate-Bule-tripin
This theme will only work on I9003 -XXKB3. Tested on deodexed rom, but should work with non-deodexed rom also(Not tested by me, confirmed by one user here)
Use it at your own risk, I am not responsible if you brick your phone.
This release is Part-I: The first part consists of changes to the Framework files only. I have also themed applications, which I will release as I fine tune them and consider worthy for release. So Dont get confused, if after flashing you do not have all that you see in screen shot.
Features of the part-I
1% Battery indicator
Fly In and Flip Mix (ApeX) Animations -To activate animations goto Menu>Settings>display>All animations
Blue Unlock screen
Transparent pull down bar
Colourful themed Menu
Transparent glowing background
Themed Status bar Music widget and Quick Widgets for GPS, Bluetooth, wifi etc.
Much more.....
Flash it to feel it.
You can use root explorer or adb to replace the two framework files in /system/framework/
If you want to use fonts, the fonts folder should be replaced in /system/fonts
The screen shots also contains tiny battery MOD which is a separate MOD with only difference in Battery indicator s not enclosed.

_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Update 16.06.11
Ultimate-Blue-tripin-Vanilla unlock screen MOD
Requirements:
-XXKB3 FW
-Deodexed framework is mandatory
This version is with Vanilla unlock screen - Many users wanted to have Vanilla unlock screen. This is in update zip format to be used with the Modded stock (3e) recovery by skin, so that you can flash it easily. Download it and place it on root of your SDCARD (do not put it inside any folder). rename it as update.zip. Now switch off your phone and simultaneously press Vol. up+Home and power on button, till you see the first screen and leave the keys, wait till recovery screen appears. Now select the update zip option and wait the phone to reboot. You are done.
If you do not have this recovery you can also use root explorer or equivalent to replace those files.
Please do this at your own risk

Thats what I did.
Root Explorer - click on Mount - Copy - Paste - Overwrite - Yes
Then there was an error message that there was no space on memory.
Delete useless applications from phone memory if you do not have enough internal memory but its rare, bcoz the files need hardly 10mb space.

In my /system/framework, there is no "framework-res.apk" file. There is "framework-tests.jar", "framework-tests.odex", "framework.jar" and "framework.odex". I have "twframework-res.apk" and "twframework.jar".
What should I do. Do I backup these files first? If something happens, any way of copying these back to the memory from PC?
This is like a live organism without vital organ. phone can not run without this file. You have to have this file. Paste it any ways, but check properly you area in system/framework folder. Us, its a good idea to back up before that. But what will you back up if u do not have that file?

I would like to see everyone getting evolved with personalizing there phone to their liking. Minor theming is not hard at all (i can do it lol). But its opens a door to what can be done with alot of effort from you. We wont have this phone forever, and it is a difficult one to mod, so by starting on this one it should only get easier... right?
Im gonna be stepping back on theming and mod investigations for a few weeks, im still in process of moving and everything is getting packed soon, un packed when house is ready in couple weeks.
These are necessities for tools to start customizing your rom.

IF you are looking at skinning, I would say most of your edits will be in xml files.
There will be an apk associated with the widget. I would start by decompiling that, using apkmanager (That is my preference. I haven't played with any of the programs ciscogee is recommending) and starting with simple PNG edits. Then work your way up from there.

wow..nice..i'll try first..
if i'm getting problem,i'll be back here,lol
One thing I forgot to mention. You will need to install the SDK, java dev kit., and have adb in your path, to use apkmanager. Ciscogee has a tut linked in the op for that.

Now you are starting to learn what to ask. No, you don't. Xml controls what images are shown, where they appear on the screen, and the text colors and sizes. But changing the actual colors of the buttons themselves doesn't affect the xml.
Dished out by my dumb digits
Anyone getting to themeing? Don't be afraid to ask questions. Would love to see what chall have done.

Unzip the apk with the imgs u want to port.
Then open your apk you want to mod with 7z
Drag imgs from port apk to the 7z window and replace.
Make sure they have the same name.
Are the imgs also hdpi?
Close 7z window and save changes etc.
Put your apk in a flashable zip.
(Use trailblazers themer, [copy apk in same folder as batch and drag into batch, follow on-screen instructions. ])
Flash in cwm
Clear cache and dalvick.
Reboot

Sorry ! How to edit framework-res.apk I mean how to replace by writing what ? Please
copy the file to your pc.
decompile it using android sdk.
replace icons by what you want.
push it to your phone using adb.
or
you could copy the file from the ROM that has the icon you want and replace.
or u can try using UOT Kitchen

Ok thanks but i don't know were is the download click
i used that tools before i stick with CM7
dont forget to upload systemUI.apk and framework-res.apk before cook in the "file upload" section
when its done then u can choose what mod do u need.
after u finish goto "summary" and then click "submit work to kitchen" and then wait 5-10mins and ur cooked file is downloadable at "Pick up" section and see "Your recently cooked files (0)"
(0) means your cooked file is not ready to download
(1) means yoyr cooked file is ready to download

flash it via CWM or stock recovery? and this will work on stock rom right?
Flashed via stock recovery and its working!
Hello everyone..
In my tutorial here, I want to show newbies how to create their own flashable zip file to flash by recovery mode (CWM)...
Now installing your mods become easier and faster
Needed tools for newbies:
1) Download this zip template that I made particularly to devices kernels that support auto-permissions fix feature like our GT-N7000:
Template-for-auto-perm-fix-kernel_v1.1.zip
2) WinRAR or 7-zip program installed in your computer.
3) zip-auto-signer_v1.1 patch in case your kernel needs it (windows users).
4) Cup of hot tea!!!
How is it working?
Open the template zip file by WinRAR or 7-zip (don't extract!! Just open)
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Now what you need to do is just to drag & drop your modded file into its corresponding destination inside the zip file.
Copy your finished zip file to your external SD card.
Boot into recovery mode and flash your file... Now you can treat yourself the cup of tea.. you deserve it
Extra step:
If you are using stock kernel that needs verification signature from flashable zip file, then you need to use zip-auto-signer to sign your finished zip file.
First copy your finished zip file from previous step and open "zip-auto-signer" folder (download from above).
Run the zip-auto-signer.bat to create all needed folders.
Now paste your zip file in "put-zip-to-sign-here" folder.
Rename it to any name but don't leave any space between letters.!! and run the script zip-auto-signer.bat.
Now go to "finish" folder and copy "signed_*.zip" into your external SD card.
Boot into recovery mode and flash your signed file
Simple and noob proof tutorial, I hope it will help you all new xda members
N.B: In case anyone needs a template that is coded to fix permissions automatically as well, I have created this template [Template-for-non-auto-perm-fix-kernel_v1.1.zip] so you can use it as your base.. But using this template on kernel that supports auto-permissions fix like Philz kernel will only make flashing time unnecessarily long!!

yes just by simple drag and drop method into the template zip file... just put your app in preload or system corresponding app folder and that's it, go and flash it :good:
For any problem using the template, I will be glad to help you all..

Yes you can but it will not be enough for app to work, you need to fix permissions and to create symlink of that app in system app folder..
why not to try the template above, it will do all the job for you

How come it creates symlink from no apk in preload partition!!!!??
As I mentioned, don't extract the template, only drag and drop your apk into preload\symlink\system\app folder whether using computer or phone to do that and then flash
