Root, custom rom (or stock) and add a theme.. try searching!
Sent from my beloved hTc Desire!

what do you mean with "custom rom or stock" ? :/ i am a newbie sry :s

when rooted you can either flash a custom rom or stay with the rooted stock rom that you had since you got the phone.. search!!

i want to stay with htc sense... i just want to change the app menu....

ZergRush exploit by doomlord.
Look in dev section for easy tool.
One click.
Sent from my LT15i using XDA Premium

Definitly worth it.
Just use the ZergExploit like explained before, make sure you flash the FXP kernel (look up how to put a boot.img) and then put the new FXP047 image (7.2.0 at the time of writing this).
I had the same reluctance at the start as you, it seems complicated, and you actually need more research. Make sure you read the "noob" posts on how to root, they actually give you all the infos you need when put together

It's normal to hesitate but not when you get the correct steps to do it in a clean and harmless method.
Try this tutorial that worked fine for me.

It does help if you actually search for what you're looking for. Luck for you there are plenty of spoon feeders here.

OP didn't specify bootloader status and the bootloader would have to be unlocked to flash a custom kernel doesn't it? Great link if he has unlocked bootloader

Ask all you want, but don't take offence when you get pulled up for being lazy.

Nope, you didn't. You're not the first to say they've searched for something when they clearly haven't and you certainly wont be the last. I came here to learn, not be spoon fed and rehashed old information that I could have found myself by searching.

Can Anyone Post A Simple Tutorial On How To Port Xperia Arc Rom To Xperia Ray "GB VERSION"
Tried JJ doctor Tutorial Dont work
THANKS :_)

Click the first link in my sig, scroll down to the section titled, "Development" then click one of the porting guide links, failing that a Google search of "how to port a ROM" should bring up any relevant info.
Sent from Myushi

Has the dev of the rom you want to port given his permission?
I'm only asking, because I've seen in the "Atomic GB" thread, that you have written to port XtremeSilencer's rom without his permission. So he certainly will report you if you port w/o permission to mods!
Here is what I'm talking about!
If I'm completely wrong, just correct me!
EDIT:
Okay, that's weird, the page from the link disappeared like it's been cleaned by a moderator!

Im not editing XtremeSilencer rom Im editing apkmartin rom i ask him he said its ok just give credits

yeah i know i asked the moderator to clean it !
cause peaple just post rubbish about porting rom without permission!

glad to hear that's worked for you. CM9 is the most stable for our device. you can try cm10 or cm10.1 if you want to test newer version. it's also run well, but the main problem is our ram. it's to small to handle. so if you want to get performance, stability and battery friendly i suggest you keep CM9.
you should backup first, lol :laugh: nandroid backup for your rom, in case you have to back to stock rom to claim the guarantee. but yeah, you can flash stock rom anyways. there is on sammobile.com
i usually using gobackup to backup sms, contacts, call log, etc. and my contacts always sync to my google account. (i know most people think go app is crap, yeah it is, but this one is working well for simple backup ).
i suggest after installing new rom you install app manually from play store. because different android version usually had different apk build.
