Hey, I recently added the Chimera theme for my Cyanogen 4.0.4 modded Magic (I'd highly recommend people checking it out - awesome theme and allows you to have up to 10 home screens, you can choose how many from the menu: http://alldroid.org/viewtopic.php?f=44&t=44). The only problem is that it came with a hideous lock screen background that I want to change or at least revert back to the normal lock screen (the screen you get immediately after you wake up the phone - it normally has the time, the network you're with and the words "press menu to unlock").
Does anyone know if there's anyway of flashing a new lock screen background to the phone, or is it going to require the whole theme to be recooked?
Cheers.
menu > theme > lockscreen
atleast on my hero rom

Yeah, I heard Unfortunately the cyanogen mod isn't based on hero's so I don't have that option.
you can use LockBot Free to do it. its easy to find on the Android Market.

I have recently updated my ROM to the current ROM that is posted on the HTC website. I am enjoying it, but I would like to know how to change the stock blue color to black, as well has how to remove the carrier logo from all of the tabs, not just the home tab.
I have looked all over the internet for help with this and have not yet come across an answer. Can anyone help?

Change wallpaper: Settings tab > Personalize > Home tab wallpaper
Remove carrier logo: Use a custom ROM. To the best of my knowledge, the carrier logo (I'm assuming AT&T) is layered into Sense. You can't remove that.
Browse around the themes section of the TP2 forum, to find options to remove the stock blue ATT theme. Dusk is one nice looking option:

To change the background in all tabs, you might try Cookies Home Tab. It has the ability to do this easily, and tons of other awesome customizations. I've linked both CHT 1.8.5, and also the 2.0 beta, which adds tons more customizations (such as an Android-style 3-screen wide home tab) but has a few bugs still (only one I have found is some occasional spontaneous rebooting of Sense, and the Quicklinks move around by themselves once in a while):

There are other solutions for changing the background in all tabs, just use the Search function and type "background all tabs rhodium 2.5".
Hello all- I have been searching for an app that would allow me to change the wallpaper/background on the page with the menu icons on it.
It seems that the colour can be changed while using ADW but I do like LauncherPro, and would simply like to customise the background screen beyond the homescreen,
Does anyone know if this is possible ?
Thanks very much for any help, LL
I'm not sure, I'm still pretty new to Android. But there were one times when my I9000 crashes when I first upgrade to Froyo 2.2, my menu screen background did change to my homescreen wallpaper. It's probably juz becoz of the things going wrong in the system, but I do think that is possible. I juz dunno how
Hello, I'd like to know if it's possible to change the lockscreen to something like htc's theme : sense - slate
and I'd also like to change my answer screen to the same style
drag down the slider to answer, or up to decline
I'm using litening rom 1.4 and I avoided the market lockscreens, I feel like they don't integrate that well with the system.
thanks
Try widgetlocker.hI
WidgetLocker worked perfectly for me. Big THANKS! Even let me remove the default lockscreen completely. As result it runs actively all the time so that it can activate the widget locker when needed but it has barely made use of the battery which is good.
The only issue I've seen is a slight flicker when unlocking (hardware key) the phone where you see a frame or two of the screen for a split second after which the lockscreen comes up but this issue has also been on and off.
Definitely recommend it.

Hi, can anyone tell me how i am supposed to use a theme for widgetlocker at all please?
I downloaded 3 files and chose the option of install and add, but there is only my phone lock showing, no icons to choose from and no wallpaper that was supposed to come with it.
I have no idea where the file has saved to or anything, and well being new to all of this android stuff i m a bit confused....
thanks for any help you can give me.
Click the following-
Lots of themes
Google is your Friend.
Hope this helps.

Just seems odd that i have done the above already but nothing has changed bizarrely.
Only the slider has appeared and i cannot it seems that i can see the custom made icons that were in the package.

Long press on a slider, or press menu then add slider and you can choose theme. It doesn't change the theme as soon as you install.

How do you assign the lock homie wsllpaper? I copied the the theme to correct location & naming convention is right but canae see paper? Do you have to save wallpaper to download folder and assign from there or am i losing the plot?

the wallpapers separate you can download this attachment
that was just a screenshot of my lockscreen on my phone
theres an option in widget locker settings under look & feel where you can select a wallpaper tick alternative wallpaper and select whatever you want
Is there any way you can make a theme just like this without the lock icon in the middle? Thanks.
Hi
Quick question RE: Widget locker
I've only ever used this biefly on my old Desire.....this was some time back so my memory is a little hazy
i seem to remember that on occasions that it would either flash up the standard HTC lock screen or require me to unlock one then the other.....or something similar to this
Does this lockscreen work without the above issues (or indeed, any issues) on the S2 ?
is there any lag or any other nasties ??
Cheers

Works fine on mine so far. always showing the widgetlocker except after a fresh reboot. slight lag on the slider at times. my only concern was battery life but it doesn't seem to affect much.

Ill try to be nice since you posted in wrong forum....most themes will not change everything you asked for...if you want to change lock screen, search for some vrthemes on here or zipthemes, there are TONS of them....for boot logo, you have to change that on your own...there is an app in here that will do that for you and has quiet a few selections....for icons, if you are talking about on launcher, just get a 3rd party launcher like nova and add your favorite icon pack....a few good ones are in these forum....and for home screen, that is usually changed with the theme you apply.
remember, you must be rooted and on a rom that has theme engine...WILL NOT WORK with stock, rooted or not.
Go for MIUI.
