Things you will need: 7ZIP (or other compression tool), An unzipped rom and Notepad++
1. Download the Mod or Theme you wish to add and open it with 7ZIP.
2. Drag all of the folders/files EXCEPT Meta-INF into your rom's folder (copy and replace all of the files that have the same name)
3. In your Mod/Theme, open the updater script with Notepad++ (located in META-INF/com/google/android)
4. Copy all of the text in the Mods updater script and then paste it at the bottom of your rom's updater scipt (they're both in the same location).
5. Save it.
6. Done
I hope this guide will help save some time and enhance your roms (Also, please make sure to ask permission for the work you use!) :good:

There's many guides on the subject but I've never done it personally...have you tried flashing it to see if it works without the need to port? The phones are similar so you may not have too. Just make sure you make a backup haha Here are some guides on it http://forum.xda-developers.com/sitesearch.php?q=How to port a theme Hope this helps!

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

Here is the link : bootanimation.zip
Flashable zip : V1-Flash.zip
Preview : GIF
Version 2:
Here is the link : bootanimation.zip
Flashable zip : V2-Flash.zip

I think we are using the same method, a flashable zip, since SamsungSans.apk is a system file, to make it work properly, flashing thru TWRP or manual push thru root browser or adb method would be the way. I removed font more so and added some that I like on my version.

I can't say it's impossible, but since it's size is so big and that it need to be in system, is the reason it won't be in an installable apk, but if someone can make it into one, then that'll be great!

To be clear ! No this cant be possible to make an apk installable as a standard apk. Apk i use previously need to be place in system, standard apk are installed in data. Flipfont system cannot be bypassed for this. Also it need a mod like signature bypass in framework and other restriction i do not remember... I've it somewhere but it an old old project and i dont have time actually to work on it. Cheers ! (I'll look if it change since i've made original mod but i dont think it can be done) ...
