There's no built-in option to change the theme on the stock Xperia. You can make significant changes to the UI if you use a home launcher app such as ADW or LauncherPro from Market if that will be enough for you. But if it's really the theme you want to change, what you have to do is replace the stock theme file called framework-res.apk located in your phone's internal memory at /system/framework/ with another framework-res.apk that's of a theme of your liking. But first, your phone needs to be rooted and have xRecovery installed.
This tutorial automates the replacement of framework-res.apk for you with a script:

[Q] setting background wallpaper

I think you might need a custom launcher for that. Idk if it's possible to change background with stock rom/launcher.
I know it is possible with Go Launcher and ADW Launcher. Search them from play and look around at the settings.

You will need to decompile framework-res.apk and change the wallpaper to whatever you like. Recompile it and flash it via cwm..

Use font changer to install font that supports your language.. install s2e directly since me v3 is free of any app2sd script or app.. install your favorite launcher and choose as default. Install other themes and apply through theme chooser.. not really hard to do it and not that complex.. just play more and customize it to your liking..

u mean change only icons ? if thats the case , then u need a theme manager to change the theme. some themes change only icons, some change everything. but the icon set is inside a theme. themes support specific launchers. so its possible that ur favorite launcher doesnt support ur favorite theme ( for the icons ). the other way around is to use a root explorer and change every little icon manually inside apks.

if u can tell me what to change and where to change (what apk 2 change) it would be great.

Better yet, you can make your own theme. Go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=44609532
You can get everything you need to know about making your own theme there.
BTW, thanks for searching the Forum/Web first, because some people just don't.

the stock one is LGHome3.apk.
since u use an alternative launcher look for it in data/app. apps u install go there. in system/app are the system apps that have root access.
well I found it as u said, it's LGHome3.apk.
used ninjamorfh, exchanged the icons, finished my project and wooow: I soft brick my phone
the launcher disappeared and after reset it was stuck in the logo.
so after about 4-5 nervous hours of pushing apk thru adb, recovery, software reset, wiping it all , download rom, flash stock rom with kdz,
restore my 120 apps, restoring backup files, I was able to bring my 4x back to life as it was before.
so conclusion :
some things don't worth to **** with :laugh: LOL
if u want to change ur app drawer icon don't be hard headed like me, create a theme or install a launcher that can do it.
anyway,
anyone that helped me in this thread .....thanks

i guess there is a reason why there is no app that can change manually the app drawer icon, It could get messy.
I used ninjamorph app (root app), it should decompile/recompile the apk automatically.

if it is only for icon , u can just treat the apk as if it was a zip. just open it with the zip manager and force the icon to replace the one u want.
