[Q] Can anyone sign my launchers?

I made a fixed port of Xperia PLAY's launcher from 2.3.2 because I loved its blue and glossy dock, what is changed in update 2.3.4. My question is can anyone sign this for me because I can't. There are two launchers. My port, and an Xperia Home launcher 2.1.0.A.7 mod, they're in the attachments.

Use ZipSigner2 from the market to sign them.

Tried it, but still cannot install. I tried to move the APK to system/app and changed t
he permissions to rw-r--r-- but no success. I also tried to flash it via update.zip but same result.
How can I get my launchers working? Its ok if my port is not working because maybe I messed something up, but the arc home mod? Any help?

Try One Click Apk Signer or search for APKtool or APK Manager and see if they do the job for you.

Sadly still not working, launchers not installed even if i move them to system/app and change permissions.

4. Give permission...
( Some apps might not working because framework related..)
5. reboot&enjoy

Dude the zip file you mentioned in the OP does not work. I check it and the framework is not built for NS devices.
I dont know how you got them to work on your devices. If you dont mind please share the way you did. Cause i just flashed it thru CWM but nothing happened.
thanks

[Q] Walkman Player on MiniCM7????

Hi, I was using gingerxperia revolution rom run on stock kernel. It was a decent rom and the music player was awesome, mainly that you could change songs by shaking your phone.
Today I upgraded to nAa kernel and minicm7 I like this rom but the music player is way inferior. what should I do
thanks

[Q] Anyway to remove lockscreen's "Swipe to unlock"

Hi, on 4.1 the swipe to unlock text only was shown a few times after turning on the device, now in 4.3 is permanent, there is anyway to remove it?
Without root on Xperia V, if only can be removed with root tell me anyway, thanks :good:

I think i saw this in some Xperia-related Xposed module. I can't find it new coz i'm on Omni. I think... I'm not sure again!

Settings/security/screen lock, choose none and then install some locker from Play Store (ie Holo Locker).

It's not possible to get rid of that text I think.. You would have to decompile the lockscreen apk and either change the color of the text to transparent or replace the related string..
But without root, you won't be able to install your modified app.
Thus, it's not possible. :/

Thanks, I going to root it soon, but I'll wait to get a 4.3 "definitive" firmware or an easy rooting method that don't need to reflash the firmware, just bored of formating so many times and if I have to do it I would prefer it to be the last one
(Sorry if my English is confusing ^^")

I can understand you.. Lost root and recovery on 4.3 recently and ended up in a bootloop. Lost all data, had to restore via Flashtool.. :/
Hopefully we will soon be able to root our devices more easily. ^^

decompile the lockscreen.apk
there is a definition for the unlock hint in inte....xml
i did this long time ago so i cant remember its exact name

Okay, XV rooted, i'm gonna try to decompile and remove it.
Im not a dev so I dont really know how, just gonna try and see what happens
Well, just not as easy as i think, decompiled, modified the swype to unlock text (in english and spanish) and recompiled, installed in System/app and the lockscreen seems to be between the AOSP and Xperia Lockscreen, with the unlock circle of AOSP and clock/widgets of xperia, but im not able to apply a lockscreen wallpaper from gallery or screen settings so i will keep the original lockscreen till i find a way to make it work

Try Xposes framework and use Xperia GEM module.

Did you sign your recompiled apk?
Sent from my Xperia V using Tapatalk.

if the XT lockscreen apk will work on the XV, then you can grab that from some custom rom. for example my nonami rom has hidden "swipe to unlock" text and also i changed the blinds affected by touch.
cheers

No since I read that System Apps should not be signed... I'm wrong?

Gonna try that or the Xposed module, thanks

System apps so have to be signed. I guess that's the reason it didn't work for you.
The only problem with this signing stuff is that you might need super user mod to make the apk install.

[Q] Stock phonebook for Xperia SP with CM11

Hi everyone,
please could anyone give me any advice where to find stock xperia phonebook apk or zip which will work with my Xperia SP with CM11 (Android 4.4.4)?
Many thanks for any help.

Try googling it maybe? ._.

Well I have spent two days with searching and trying but nothing worked for me... I wouldn't post it here if I didn't try to find it by myself...

Not compatible!

There are real experts here as I can see... Another similarly constructive advice? :-/

Try an stock-look-a-like kitkat ROM (experianze?) an backup the APK. Restore your ROM and paste APK in the right folder (set right permissions) and see if it works..

That won't work as it might require some extra files (.jar .xml etc)
