Have you tried any other file explorers ? Might be a problem with ES.

did you change home directory to "/" instead of "/sdcard0" under ES setting?
external sdcard is in the path "/storage/sdcard1" after you change the home directory

Thank you! I didn't know ES uses a home directory, now I can browse all files in my phone! Changed home directory to "/" it's all good now!

If you open an .apk file with, say, WinRAR, that's what you'll see. Just so you know.

if you have the .apk file you have to install it! if you don't have the .apk file and just the extracted version, you can let Titanium BackUp make one for you.
I don't know of this will help but I had a similar prob. I had an .txt file of an app and I couldn't figure out ho to convert it into apk but after getting no solution i just renamed it to .APk instead of .txt and it worked!

Network Location for CM10/AOKP JB

I opened this new thread for people who have problems with network location provider on CM10/AOKP JB(tested on latest CM10 and AOKP JB and deepsleep ok,i dont know if it will work on CM9.1 too)
So,
-First you need this NetworkLocation.apk and put it on /system/app/here and set permission to rw-r-r
-Second you must ad the right database on /sdcard/nogapps/here
NetworkLocation Database (copy to /sdcard/.nogapps/cells.db):
-Based on dumps of opencellid-project - all credits to those guys there!
-World
-Africa
-Asia
-Australia
-Europe
-North-America
South-America
That is,have fun...
Thanks, this is very useful
Agree! Works perfectly on the latest CM10.

Does ".nogapps/cells.db" needs to be created on sdcard?
i have downloaded the networklocation.apk and the cell-asia.db.. then i copy the apk and replace networklocation.apk in system/app and change permission to rw-r--r--. then i create .nogapps folder in sdcard, copy the cell-asia.db to it and rename it to cell.db, the permission is ---rwxr-x. is this correct step..?
thanks i will try it :good:
Which cm10 are you using? 10/10 by thewhisp?? I'm on 07/09 and I can't get it to work...should I update ROM or has it worked for anyone?

No need to change permission when the directory is SD card

Delete post please
Some people said that using this solution might be a break to copyright law against Apple, because this solution uses data from Apple to get network location when using WiFi.
What do you think ? Might be a problem ?
i'm really thanksfull for this. It works perfectly, also deepsleep. The only bug i found it's the direction : 45° of my real direction. But I've not test on the road again. Thanks.
I don't think apple is looking for this thread and i think he will look if someone say to him

Xperia T - Bond Edition (Skyfall Theme)

part 1 - https://www.sendspace.com/file/mzq5qi
part 2 - https://www.sendspace.com/file/vhbivc
Here are the original images, wallpapers, ringtone/notification and theme file from the Bond Edition Xperia T.
Needs root to get the actual theme installed, but can have the ringtone & notification anywhere as usual ringtones and select.
Skyfall.apk needs to be copied to 'system/vendor/overlay/framework' folder and permissions changed and reboot!
Thanks to JJD809 who kindly provided the Bond content.
If preferred anyone with a mediafire account could add this content as sendspace link will not last forever.
UPDATE:
TiMiN8R said:
Sony changed the way the themes work on jelly bean so you can't use this one any more.
Download the new one here and put it in /system/app/ (not /vendor/overlay/framework like the old one) and set the permissions to rw-r--r-- (0644), then reboot.

I love you.
With the help of one of your threads, I successfully flashed my firmware on my Xperia T to get rid of the O2 branding. Before flashing I copied & saved the Skyfall.apk and the tones to the memory card in the hope of pasting them back to their folders. Didn’t realise that the folder would be un-writable. Can any one give me detailed instruction on how to get the Theme back on my phone. I used Flashtool to Flash Firmware and ES File Explorer to copy files to memory card.
Thanks in advance

Check the root thread and use the latest root script to root.
Use ES file explorer and copy the skyfall.apk back to the folder it was in. (see original post)

just change the extension to .apk
or, even better, use winrar or winzip to extract the files and move them manually

just a note...it might NOT be the system/app folder...
its 'system/vendor/overlay/framework' or where the other theme.apk files are saved.

You must make the folder R/W not just R/O
You need root to do this, and then just click on the grey R/W button in top right of root explorer
