ok, sorry for posting in every mod and now doing a seperate thread but i think more people are interested in this:
Is there currently a way to remove/replace the lockscreen (without some crap programs from the market).
I see that different mods have differnt lockscreens (like the one from ahmgsk), but how to implement the lockscreen in my preferred mod?
In addition: Someone saw the lockscreen.apk from the nexus one anywhere?
I have the N1 lockscreen now @ ahmgsk mod, anyway to extract it from there and port it to pauls mod?

Hello all,
I have been searching for a while but couldn't find any specific info on this subject. I'm wondering if different lockscreens can be used on ROMs other than CyanogenMod. I use TheOfficial HTC ADP 1.6 DRC83 ROM, Can custom lockscreens like Stericson's be used? Thank you all Developers/ROM cookers for making all these awesome modifications to these phones possible. Please dont flame me, Im new to all this...
thanks all...
I am pretty sure the lockscreen has not been ported over to 1.6 yet. I know it is being worked on.
I know an unmodified services.jar from the 5a lockscreen will work with akirahs rom, but a modded services.jar will not go past the first splash screen.
Lockscreens can be added to any rom, provided you have the source for it's services.jar, however, as a simple "drop-in", no, it has to be designed for that rom because of specific dependencies between a rom's framework (though two roms based on the same framework should work as long as it's not been odexed). There's a way to do it, though, but it's a lot of work, you could have the services read off of an xml that you can store in your system folder (maybe etc) and toss your changes there. I'm working on..... .nevermind
Hey Guys,
since I'm a new user and not allowed to post in the mike1986's ARHD 5.1.x Thread I'll try it here:
I'm on ARHD 5.1. ROM now and I also installed Lockscreen3.0 from the firste page of mikes Thread.
but how can I get back the stock lockscreen if i wanted to? there is a restore and remove Mod in mikes thread for the lockscreen too, but I'm not really sure which one to flash, or in what order...
another question:
did anyone look into the .zip and .apk files of the Lockscreen3.0 Mod?
there are some graphics (i.e. of the metallic ring) in it. if I would like to change the ring, maybe in a black metallic ring, can I just change the .png file of the ring? will this work?
what about other mods? i.e. the various status-bar-icon-mods? is it possible to just alter the graphics to get new icon designs?
thanks for your help
For your first question...you just have to flash the .zip file for "restore HTC lockscreen"
Helped me too, cheers.
hi,
quick question: how to edit the quick settings in the drop-down menu (notification tray) in Gingerbread Sense ROMs ? (im using insertcoin)
i want to know ! how to do ?
Maybe this Thread helps you
well unfortunatetly no answer there, just an idea to decompile an .apk and suit it to my needs.
still, anyone ?
Its so simple in MIUI Rom... their is an option in settings/Personal/ Custom Status Bar..
Incase you desperately want the setting, you can try MIUI ;-)
Well it's a difference if you did the thing yourself or if you want to change a HTC based feature without big hacks. I think it's pretty much impossible.
But if there is a solution, let me know - 2G/3G is missing
it is not impossible, in stock you get only a few quick settings, in custom roms (rcmixs, insertcoin) devs extended it - i want to know how, so i can remove the unneeded shortcuts.
robocik: not that easy, you should take a modded systemui.apk and a stock one, decode both with apktool and diff them, that way you will see how it is maked and will be easier for you to modify it.
this is the method, have not tried it yet though.
if any of you intrested guys tries to do this, i really apprecieate your feedback here thx.
and big thanks to robo, not only for all the amazing job he is doing for our community, but also for responding to my Q
I have rooted Desire Z with Virtuous Sence v2 Rom.
Go to
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1071118
and download Extra QuickSettings 0.2
http://www.multiupload.com/W7GXFQJN6R
Extract SystemUI.apk from zip file.
I used DroidExplorer to replace original : system/app/SystemUI.apk
with the downloaded one and have ne quick settings menu.
Is there any way to change "quick settings" with rooting?
If by "change" you mean "add/remove features in the settings list", yes, there is. Check out this thread.
In my search for the perfect RoM, testing hundreds of apks, flashable zips and so on, I have finally narrowed it down and decided to go for a sense-based RoM. That is JokerDriod 4,2.
The only problems I have with this is its theme and the lockscreen.
I've searched the forum a lot and I couldn't find annything ( that works ) to replace the JK theme with the default one, and the Lockscreen with the default one from HTC Sense.
Regarding the theme: I have replaced Rosie.apk and framework-res.apk to change the theme ( as the flashables did not work ) but the buttom part ( App Drawer, Phone, Add to Screen ) are still the same, transparent and with an ugly blue line when I press them.
As for the Lockscreen, I have found a flashable here on the forum, but it did not work...
Can anyone provide me flashable zip to completly go to stock skin ( Rosie.apk, Framework-res.apk and that other file....forgot the name ) and also with the default htc lockscreen?
Thank you very much.
Hey dude, I was once also troubled by this problem. Thanks to the great help from 3xeno, we figured out a solution. We find out that although the rosie.apk is for the bottom bar and htclockscreen.apk for lockscreen, it is the additional com.htc.resources.apk that made them transparent. So, you can replace that file of jokerdroid rom with that of original sense. (He suggested me to replace directly without unzipping the zip and I did so)
Thanks for your reply. I have managed to find it out when decompressing the rom.
Hi everyone, I want to switch the original lockscreen with the Wave 3 lockscreen and vice versa. I know how it is done via .RC1 editing in WR, but I want a more elegant, quicker alternative.
So, is it possible to switch lockscreens via a .THM (theme) file? Best if that theme does not contain anything else (using standard wallpapers and icons). Anyone know how to do it? Are there any examples that I could have a look at?
Now you can change Lockscreen without RC1 or without Theme...
Copy ScreenLock.swf into /Media/Others/Flash/ock/

Tried it, but I need to be able to do this for other FW cores (XXLG1, JVLC2, DDLC2, ZCLC2) as well. The way it is now, I can't edit the respective PhoneShell.so files. B. Kubicas GCE2ELF v0.31 script doesn't work for them.
