Like Keyguard Plus? Consider donating!
So this is a rather heavily customized Keyguard, taken from Xperia Z3 (some Xperia Z3 exclusive features had to be removed, like One Time Pass and Bluetooth Unlock), and brought to Xperia Z1, and it was modified purely by editing Smali code. This probably will work on Z1s too, not sure.
This mod removes the "Change lockscreen wallpaper" option in Personalization settings and adds some customization to the main lockscreen, see screenshots.
This is only intended for 14.4.A.0.108 and 14.4.A.0.157, because it replaces your firmware2.jar file, which is different in every firmware version.
More versions will be added later.
You may use it in your custom ROMs, no need to ask my permission!
BEFORE YOU FLASH:
* Tested only on Xperia Z1 14.4.A.0.108 and 14.4.A.0.157.
* Works on deodexed ROMs only!
* This mod does NOT work well with GraviryBox's lockscreen mods, so turn "Lock targets" off (I'll add my own Lock targets feature in the next version).
* You must have "app/ExperienceFlow2LiveWallpaper.apk" for "Xperia (Particles)" to work! (In Xperia Z1 it's there by default so no worries)
HOW TO INSTALL:
1) If you are using deodexed stock ROM, add these lines to build.prop (this is VERY important!): ( Thanks a lot @niaboc79 )
Code:
dalvik.vm.verify-bytecode=false
dalvik.vm.dexopt-flags=v=n,o=v,m=y
2) Backup and delete "app/XpeiaLockScreen.apk" (on stock/custom ROMs) OR "app/LockscreenSettings.apk" (on some custom ROMs)
3) Backup "priv-app/Keyguard.apk" and "framework/framework2.jar" in case of any failure.
4) Flash one of the attached packages (according to your firmware version).
5) After flashing, wipe Cache and Dalvik-Cache!
This seems nice. Some screenshots of the modded lockscreens would be nice, if I'm not asking for too much. Thanks anyway!

Well basically it's just the stock lockscreen or the blinds lockscreen (from older Jelly Bean versions) or the normal particle effect lockscreen. There's nothing visually different (unless you set it in the settings). Most of the changes are under-the-hood, it's in the code.

I'm surprised you actually tried to flash it on 14.4.A.0.157 firmware, while this package replaces your framework2.jar with a modified one from 14.4.A.0.108. Obviously it would crash. I'm on 108 myself so I'll update when I got the time. It's just a side-project after all.
Good, bro!
Well working on mine, romAur9.1(108 firm). Anyway, I found an issue regard camera on lock screen, which isn't work and shows System UI reboot. Couldn't get logcat (sorry), but I think Blind might make this failure.

Hi mate,
I'm having problem with this mod, everytime i try to enter the lockscreen settings i get systemui fc. Currently running .108 with modified systemui (transparent notification panel and different number of quick setting in a row is what is touched). I have attached a log file, hope it helps.
Thanks!

java.lang.VerifyError means that the method signatures found at runtime did not match what was there at compile-time. Do you have a stock framework-res.apk / framework.jar? It seems like your log has many errors. Might be related.

My framework-res contains advanced framework mod, hwere you get sony iu on other apps, the same goes for framework.jar as it seems to take place in the same mod. I'm thinking that these two mode are not compatable.

It's just that you can't compile this mod against any possible framework mods. The error log doesn't specify what exactly failed to verify there, unfortunately.
Even though I'm pretty sure that I'm using Advanced Framework too.

I'm talking about the mode that switches all the connections (3G, wi-fi, etc.) off when you're in an airplane so your phone wouldn't mess with plane's equipment.
Look at the attachment. Turn it on and then off to see if your systemui fc.
Guys this is a very experimental app, and all mods were done manually with no error checking (Smali has a very minimal error checking), so if something was missed in the coding process take it with understanding. I have very little time to work on this project but I'm getting to it.

Hi guys. I found amazing apk in Xperia Mini & Pro Development. New Settings style that should be work on all XPERIA 2011 GingerBread based ROM (both stock or modified one). I tried and it works. Here is the link :

Looks pretty cool, but the only problem I ran into is that com.android.settings force closes when opening brightness controlls
No force closes for me r800i Love it much better than stock .
Looks good but same FC issues on R800x

There is two methods:
1. Flash it in recovery.
2. Unpack .zip file and copy settings.apk from /app folder to system/app folder on ur phone
!ALWAYS REMEMBER ABOUT BACKUP (WHOLE ROM OR .APK)!
I prefer second method.

I've used a rom on my old phone that had a lot of FC issues that were in the settings so I'm really patient with this, most of it works. It's anything that involves a slider actually. Volume, brightness, and also when I click "More" under network settings. But I always have triggers on my Launcher so I barely go on the settings menu. I'm using the R800x.
I modified iiandskater's Settings.apk to fix some icons that bothered me. I removed the duplicate location & security setting and replaced some ixons with Xperia S style ones.
This is not CWM flashable, if someone feels like making a flashable .zip please do Otherwise just adb push or replace with Root Explorer and set correct permissions.
The SemsSettings.apk is included to fix the alignment and icon to suite the overall style. Enjoy!
woow I like this! is there any way to add the button switch ics have?
Still force closes when I select "More" under wireless, just a heads up. Thank you though
Might be cause you're running a CDMA version of the phone :S This is the same Setting.apk as the one from the thread in the OP, just modified to look nicer.
I'll post my version in the original thread and point out that it still produces FC's on some devices (probably CDMA only).

I all depends on the size of the icons. You can use xhdpi icons, but they'll be to big for the status bar. I haven't found away to adjust the icons in the xml's as of yet, still looking. That bugs me as well especially the "3G". All in all unless you have ICS the icons will continue to look this way.

No, i dont think so. You have to consider that each icon has a designated space mandated in the XML's or smali about 38x38 or so. You want to find that line and change it to read something like 38x20 or what ever you want. It would read something like <FrameLayout android:layout_width="20.0dip" android:layout_height="25.0dip". I've tried changing "status_bar_icon.xml" to no avail.

I have spotted this xposed plugin by this guy.It is supposed to bring back tablet ui on android 4.2.2.If you are rooted on stock android 4.2.2 and want tablet ui back try and report the results
You must have xposed framework installed in order to test it

that's a shame.are you sure you have enabled the module from xposed setting?anyway i have found here how to do it but i don't have the knowledge to do it for an odexed rom.if somebody could do it i would be glad
Yes I'm sure.
Also, the thread you have linked to is for Nexus 7 running stock or CM10, I think it is highly unlikely that it will work on our device. I really hate the phone UI too, but if Sony haven't included the tablet UI (and why would they) we are going to have to revert back to 4.1, wait for somebody with the know how to fix it for us, or fix it ourselves. I will be reverting to 4.1 or perhaps going back to PAC.

it works.it's part of android framework and it works on every tablet.it is the same kind of trick like the one they did on ics with the lcd density.i hope somebody will find it from this thread or i will contact someone.I would have been on pac but gps and ir are vital for me
If it's any help, changing lcd density to 160 doesn't change the UI
There was an app on the Play Store someone posted recently that supposedly worked on other tablets, they never got anyone to test it though. I can't remember the name of the app and can't find the post again for anything but I would bet its similar to the Xposed module.

No one had tried it at the time, the update had just started being pushed to the Pollux tablets and then people started with the Xposed module and the app was forgotten about.
As I said before I can't remember the name, it was a week and a half ago that it was posted and I can't find it again.

i've spoken with some devs and we have come to a very bad conclusion.None of them examined the framework but these threads work because they are talking about aosp roms(the first is nexus so it has aosp and the other is reffered to cm).Tablet ui is achieved by changing a value on framework that enables the tablet ui rather than the phone ui.How many possibilities are there that sony has tablet ui incorporated when they have no intention to have it enabled?aosp has it incorporated as it depends on constructors what ui to chose but why should sony have it incorporated?just a thought...

I would think Sony would have included it just because it would be a huge pain in the ass to chop that out and would most likely cause some instability, its kinda like all the **** that VZW hid or just didn't include in their Note 2 that was easily added back by changing a couple values.
I would bet the reason the mod doesn't work is because the framework that needs to be edited is either in another place or has a different name from what the Xposed patch is instructed to look for.
Edit:
I found this patch for the Nexus 7:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1780970&page=84
check post 840 on page 84. It changes everything to tablet UI on stock AOSP so maybe it can be modified for us to use on the XTZ.

Sony probably just patched framework to be used with Phablet UI:
In all of the above mentioned mods the following files are mainly modified
Code:
system -> app -> SystemUI.apk
framework -> android.policy.jar | services.jar | framework-res.apk
Furthermore i tried to use SystemUI.apk from 4.1.2 firmware with tablet UI, on 4.2.2 firmware with Phablet UI.
It didn't work, because framework-res.apk should be definitely patched.

i'm looking for the same. But you can manually compare above mentioned files with the stock ones and find out what was changed.
I'm "this guy" from Post#1. TabletUI won't work on XTZ right now - simply, layouts for tablet are replaced with phablet, and the mod triggers using tablet layout (which is, replaced with phablet ). Unless somebody ports back TabletUI layouts, nothing can be done with Xposed only.

It means that neither simply modifying SystemUI and framework-res (changing some values) will work in this case?

a simple (decompile, edit, recompile) for your ROM's XperiaLockScreen.apk would be enough to remove it for good
if you wan't help with that, just tell me which you're using and I'll edit its XperiaLockScreen.apk and upload it for you as flashable Zip

I'm terribly sorry about this delayed reply, after hours of trying, it turned out, Samsung puts the lockscreen hint in framework-res.apk,
while Sony puts it in an individual app (it was in UxpNxtLockScreen.apk in the previous Sony lockscreen),
and now that they have changed there lockscreen to a brand new one, they changed the lockscreen apk name as well,
to become (XperiaLockScreen.apk).
Anyway, all that might be not important, all you need is something to remove that silly hint with, right!!
this is a flashable zip that contains a modded XperiaLockScreen.apk from Sony KK Generic firmware,
it should work on all Sony KK official or based ROMs, and the message won't appear in all languages
Tested on my Z1C using [KITKAT] D5503_14.3.A.0.681_Generic by Munjeni
Enjoy

Does it means we can extract the apk from 4.3 and use it in 4.4? Or will it not work due to some internal change in 4.4? I like 4.3 lockscreen betetr

I don't think it is that simple, cuz there are some other files (maybe in /framework or /lib),
if you look for it in google for example (port Sony lock screen) you should find all the info about what files you need to change to get 4.3 lockscreen on KK, [I'll look into it but I might not post anything about it, will see]
I am really missing AOSP lockscreen. I tried it myself with the help of set of modules Xposed but fails. Is there a way?

Simply remove the lockscreen apk on whatever ROM/FW you're using. You're stuck with a black background on JB though but works a treat on KK.
Ooooooooooooooo! I'll try! Thanks!

If you're talking about the zip I provided under your request, then I'm glad to hear that.
also one last thing, it would be better if you change this thread's title to (something like):
[Mod] Remove "Swipe to unlock" text from lockscreen for Sony KK framework
So that if anyone is searching for the same thing would find the solution easily
have a nice day

Hi, everyone! I don't know if I am doing this right but here it goes...
I have a Xperia E, and I am so, but so done of that green battery that is useless and even don't tell me the percentage of remaining battery!
I flashed to ICS and modded the SystemUI, it was an awesome mod, with transparency and battery's percentage.
Why I changed again to JB? Because of better compatibility with apps (more recent) and a sudden hope that Sony will launch a new update.
So recently I had an idea, but my knowledge about apks is very low and I don't know how to program Java and XML languages.
I installed an app, GravityBox, that do the job, but it occupy RAM and CPU time.
If there is someone interested on this and want to do, teach or help, please tell because it will benefit everyone and maybe people will understand how Android works and maybe it will work like an introduction to modding.
First of all is the percentage, if possible I wanted to look like the screenshot.
I'm interested 2 if someone can teach or guide,refer.

there's no risk anyways...since your just editing the apk's ....(worst that could happen is 'no system ui ')
if you were tweaking kernels and that sort of stuff it would be risky...
OK good luck!
Begining SystemUI
So I started doing the battery icons, more like the screenshots, but now I have a doubt, if someone knows this please reply.
When I installed GravityBox the percentage does not change size, I mean the font size, and for this the icons should be bigger that the actual 21x18 pixels.
Now I am at the 36% icon, possibly I can do all icons today and compile to .apk again.
I'll do the tests to not endanger other equipments.
SystemUI testing
I have good and bad news.
The good is it worked once but with fails, don't ask me why because I don't know, I just followed the TUT.
The bad is that I got this "New Android Interface".

Well since I can't use ClockworkMod properly because I can't unlock the damn bootloader, I have an odexed ROM, but when I had ICS it wasn't deodexed and installed the mod simply by removing the .odex file, I think it would be the same procedure.
The SystemUI I modded is from my actual ROM, simply and for now I just made new SystemUI icons and changed the respective .xml files.
I don't know what I did wrong and why it only worked when I put the modded SystemUI on the system/app folder.

talk to nsdcars5 or matspunt about it.....
but first ...your bootloader...do something about it
I'll see what can I do, I have to call my carrier to see how much it costs to enable bootloader unlock.
I'll also contact these users you indicated me, maybe my problem is very small. :thumbup:

Unlocking the boot loader is different from carrier unlocking! If your status says yes it's completely free.
Please Google for guides, because right now I'm on my phone.

No! Don't do that! You'll just have to flash the thing again.
@Grimlock007 Just asking, since when do I have experience in SystemUI mods? Only time I did one was for my last phone, for which GravityBox didn't exist (*cough* Gingerbread *cough* 256 MB RAM *cough*).
New Idea
I got an idea, when I had ICS it was also odexed and I could mod.
So the steps for me were:
1 - Copy the original SystemUI into a folder (backup)
2 - Copy modded SystemUI to the app folder
3 - Reboot
4 - Delete odex file
5 - Reboot
6 - Done
I was thinking in a person who has deodexed SystemUI and if this person transfer to me.
I think it would work, basically I think it's the same process, even for modding.

Hi everyone, again!
Finally I found something interesting with gravitybox.
The screenshot without the status bar is like the expanded desktop from gravitybox.
I'll take a look again on my systemui configurations and soon will dispose to everyone to use, see and modify freely and at own risk even if it is incomplete by my side. I want this to be a community project for xperia e and by xperia e users.
I still have two questions...
How do I make not expanded desktop?
Why nobody sent me an Deodexed SystemUI?...
