[TUT] [HOW TO] ADD custom sounds in your Xperia theme

Introduction :
Hi guys .. Sony developers have added a hidden feature in their theme engine since we got the official lollipop update and it is that we can add custom sounds in our themes ! I have tested this feature and worked for me , the cool part is it works also on un-rooted devices NO NEED FOR SUPER USER MOD DUDES :fingers-crossed: .

What do you need :

• A PC / Laptop .


• An Xperia device ( Running LP - Not sure if this will work on a lower platform ) .


• Apktool and a knowledge in how to use it .


• Songs to add :P .


• A brain .

Instructions :

• Download my zip file in the attachment below .


• Decompile it in your apktool folder .


• Go to Res / Raw .
  - There you will find 3 files ( Ogg types ) called :
  • Alarm_sound : Sound of Alarm .
  
  
  • Notification_sound : The sound when an notification appear .
  
  
  • Ringtone_sound : The sound when a call is coming .
  
  


• Replace the 3 Ogg files with the songs / sounds you want . ( No need to change the type of them for Ogg ! ) .


• Recompile the file using apktool .


• Move the zip to your assets folder inside your theme .


• Add this line in your theme's AndroidManifest.xml file :
