Looks like you're using a prototype device with older firmware
(or an Xperia T/V/TX on Jelly Bean, but I'll go with the prototype theory)

Because if you look at the screenshots you'll notice that the first one has the pure black status bar and on-screen key background. The second one you posted (with the version info) has the regular, retail, gray version.
Either those aren't your screenshots or you updated the phone in between the two screenshots.

This is a filter from Twitter at the Homescreen therefore different.

Oh ok.

Can anyone post Screenshot of Running Apps?

Just the stock launcher here, does everything I need and looks classy

One More Clock widget.
search on Play Store

Get the ripple effect (Samsung Galaxy S3) lockscreen on your phone!

So there are a bunch of us who are asking "Hey how do I get the ripple effect lockscreen on my Android" this is my method and I know there are a bunch of flashable .zips out there but if those dont work here is a good idea:
What you need:
Widgetlocker WITH Invisible Tabs theme. (Downloadable by hitting get themes... On widgetlocker)
A picture that is transparent (saved to your phone)
The Samsung Galaxy SIII Wallpaper (yes choose any of them in the play store as long as they have the water drop effect) I recommend the wallpapers Wasabi makes (producer on Google Play)
A Samsung Galaxy JellyBean Clock.
THATS ALL YOU NEED!
So now for what to do:
You may setup WidgetLocker to your preferences except for that widgets need to be able to overlap (MUST HAVE)
Put the Galaxy Live wallpaper (Earlier downloaded) and set it as the MAIN wallpaper (no, if you set the option to change the wallpaper for widget locker it womt work)
Now take the Clock you downloaded (or made) and put it in as a widget
Next put a custom slider in widget locker make sure its invisible tabs
Setup invisible tabs to:
Unlock from BOTH SIDES and make the icons invisible by appliying the ivisible wallpaper
Continue the above step and resize as neede to fill the whole screen with sliders,
Thats it, yes i know its not perfect, the only part i noticed to be diffrent is that when touching either slider, the other side gets a small dot...
I hope this helped people,
Please hit that thanks button (its greatly appreciated)!

No there is not, there are however mods for a transparent bar if you're rooted

Xperia Themes - custom themes on stock 4.3 roms

I couldn't find anyone else talking about this, so figured I'd start a thread.
The release notes about the 4.3 updates contain this snippet:
"The launch of our unique custom interface experience: “Xperia Themes”, with downloadable UI packs from Sony Select – more on this soon…"​
I spotted this post on Xperia blog, which shows some screenshots, and links to the themes on the Play Store
http://www.xperiablog.net/2013/12/1...-3-xperia-themes-look-on-the-xperia-tablet-z/
Looking at the screenshots, it looks like the theme has a fair bit of control - for example the software buttons are skinable, which is pretty neat
https://play.google.com/store/apps/developer?id=Knowit+Mobile+AB
(These themes have been on the store since the 3rd of January.)
Is anyone able to share the apks so we can pull them apart, and work out whether we can make our own themes? (I've got an Xperia SP which hasn't seen the 4.3 update yet, so I can't download them myself)
I am working about that lol
Sent from my C6603 using Tapatalk
Well, it worked in ExistenZ 5. Thank You!
Had a conversation with someone on Google plus, about these themes,
"I reached out to one of the theme developers. They told me they have a great relationship with Sony and at this time all themes had be sent to sony for approval and to be signed by them. Which is a drag. I hope they plan to open that up soon, but it appears that its going to be locked down to them for a while. I'll keep digging and see if I can get a hold of sony and talk to them."
Thought it might be interesting.
Would be nice if Sony could use XDA themers to beta test, but if not it would be nice if they created a program to make them, in the same way that the go launcher devs did for their launcher.

If you go to the XistenZ thread and ask @niaboc79 he will be able to give you the help you need as he's done all the accent theme colour changes before.

Paid apps removed, TriFlat is free. I think it would be ok if somebody would make a kitkat theme. Ben Ling tries to make it. Thanks Ben.

Share your homescreens

Hey people, thought it might be a good idea if we share our homescreens. I change my homescreen almost every 3-4 weeks. At the moment it looks like this:
I did almost everything with nova launcher. But I have an important question. I hided my status bar with nova launcher too. But if I open apps the status bar is visible again. Is there any possibility to hide the status bar in all applications and make it visible only when swifing from top to bottom? Maybe with a xposed module?
