Why don't you do a backup with CWM? Much easier
Press Thanks button if helped

When you backup with CWM, if I'm not wrong you will get system.tar, which you can decompile. As an alternative you can edit system/app folder with Root explorer, or any file manager with root, but if you want to do it this way, you will need root.

It says to push to your system/app folder using Root Explorer. Very easy method when apps won't install.

if youre installing into the /system folder then its required to make the directory r/w or you won't be able to copy the apk to the system directory. for market apps this process isn't required.

i think it's in java so......
Go to res/values/strings.xml..open strings.xml using Notepad++ and edit the app name..

thanks for corection .....
you will need to extract apk with some apk tool because xml files are unreadable
And don't forget to sign...unless it's a system app.

Require stock launcher files/screen softkeys

Hi guys,
I flashed the new Nexus 5 launcher and it replaced the Z1's softkeys with the 5's. I don't like these keys and want the Z1's. Can someone provide me with the required files.

You make backups with recovery. You can also make a backup of the xperia home apk with titanium backup that you can restore,
I can provide you with the file when I get time.
Just remember that in future it is always good practice to backup things up before you flash anything or replace system apps. that way when things go wrong (Or if you don't like the result) then you can easily go back without having to ask for someone to provide you with the files that you once had on your phone.

Hey I saw the zip with the files but how am I supposed to flash them? This isn't a CWM zip..I only need to flash the system UI... Launcher is ok
You throw them in system/apps and overwrite.
Restart and then it should be back to normal.

Edit this idea was a massive fail.. I had to factory reset ater backing up my data and reflash the ROM... It seems the smaller softkeys are due to the ROM. What can I do to have the stock softkeys? How do I flash those @gregbradley?

seeing as you never mentioned which rom you were on I presumed you wanted the stock systemUI.apk.
If you want something different then extract it from your rom download and put it in system/app using root explorer and change the permissions so they are the same as other apps.
HINT
put it in system
long press on it and choose change permissions
change them to this
[*][*][-]
[*][-][-]
[*][-][-]
then move it to system/app
reboot
