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

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.

All themes (from Z1) can be found on Z1 thread (themes and apps) for download.
I'm not sure for XZ but Z1 got new theme engiene with 4.3 update and they are awesome.
It's very easy to decompile them and change png's and have your own, custom theme....

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.

Hi, I've uploaded the best themes. A KitKat theme (transparent UI and KitKat icons) would be cool.

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.

I hope this isn't too much to ask, but may someone take screenshots of the Xperia Z interface? I'm making a framework theme for 2011 Xperias and I would like to see what the interface looks like throughout the phone. Some good places to take screenshots would be:
Settings app
Any Sony app
Any Google app or an app not using Sony's framework
Power menu
Anything with progress bars, sliders, buttons etc.
SystemUI
And anything else that comes to mind (in essence, everything).
If you do take screenshots please do not reduce the size of the image please. Thanks!

Hi guys,
I have made a simple small app with the new Sony SDK, tested and works fine in my Xperia Arc. I just want someone to install the app and send me a screenshot of the small app so that if any changes required in font sizes, I can change and share it with you guys. :fingers-crossed:
Here's the link to the thread --> http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2189339

The small app will be using device's default fonts. So don't worry.

If everybody learned everything then we would have no reason to have a forum like this!

It seems it does not work 100% and it will take battery being on all the time...
Is there NOBODY that wants to contribute to the forum and get a star in the heaven for making a blue statusbar :laugh:
Why is it that nobody makes blue or colorful battery and wifi icons for the xperia Z? I had samsung before and a HTC and there was always a mod/theme for blue icons in the theme section...
Dont take this as complaining, I'm just wondering if its harder on Sony that nobody makes it or if its so easy that nobody cares to do it?
In case you haven't seen the Xperia Z's lockscreen, the UI is really nice.
I really want this to be available on our beloved phone so I don't have to envy the Xperia Z.
The lockscreen has been ported to many other phones and here is a link to the one for the galaxy s.
It is also included in many Galaxy s3 roms
If anyone can help port this [http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2202150] to the One, it would be greatly appreciated.
This is a video of the lockscreen. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fCy5xHty24U
Thanks for reading this, and If you know anyone that might be able to help, please direct them to this thread!
I second this... Also theres a patch to add a BlackBerry 10 lockscreen, I think slim ROM comes with it.

i too would love to see this on the htc one!
I'm not sure but I think you need the file XperiaUXPLockscreen.apk or whatever the filename is 1st... Posting the said APK in this thread is a good start than making a plain request... Some modders are way too lazy download a whole ROM and try extracting an FTF.
Here is a guide for porting to CM10 I just found.

I didn't know where to look for an answer, but I want to know how to keep my stock navbar when using a theme. Themes now change the navbar, and i want to know how to keep my own. Im talking about themes like New Zealand Theme and Sea Theme's.

Open the apk with 7zip,go to res/xxHDPI and replace the original Sony nav bar images
You can get those images in SystemUI.apk
