I seen these absolutely amazing lockscreens
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1288096
but ive been informed they will only work with MIUI which is a real shame, does anyone know where i can get some of these lockscreens for our Galaxy S2, some amazing work there.
Thanks
No one knows how we can get these lockscreens for non MIUI?
i dont think they would be compatible with any of our roms...Cause its build for the MIUI and CM7 only i think..I think i have asked that before to GC and he said also it would be hard to get them over to us...I might be wrong but thats what i remember..

such a shame, CM7 and MIUI always seem to get the best themes and lockscreens, some of these lockscreens are stunning.
Can some themer or dev not manage to get these to work on non CM7 or MIUI ROM's?
check out the latest version of QQlauncher Pro.(free app). it has a beta locker screen setting which brings default MIUI style lockscreen.pretty decent. you can also switch to other launchers and lockscreen works. https://market.android.com/details?id=com.tencent.qqlauncher&feature=search_result

under preferences >Lock screen on-off . Tick it to see the lockscreen.
you should try widgetlocker it works very well with the sgs2 you can have miui - iphone or stock android style lockscreens loads of themes for it on this forum and others.
If the miui guts release that on normal android phone they woulda get richz

u can try magiclocker on the market. there are a couple of miui like lockscreen themes available
I asked this request a long time ago mate. I would be willing to pay $100 for someone to successfully have MTZ zips flashable on Samsung based firmware. That way we could have MIUI themes and screens

Searched if there already was this kinda topic here, and it wasn't.
Is it possible to get the MIUI Lockscreens ported to our beloved SGS2?
Please take a look at this link:

They look REALLY AWESOME and I would die for this on my SGS2.
Anyone who can do some magic?
Would gladly donate to the person who can/will port this, if possible
Thanks in advance

Thats the first ever bit of miui that I actually like. Nice find, hope someone ports them over.
It would be very cool if someone could make that

Just download the mtz file and install(open) it. It will ask to install the theme.
To change/edit go to apps->themes->edit-theme->lockscreen
Works on my i9100 with MIUI 1.7.1 test31

Widgetlocker is a good alternative, its on the market and there are loads of miui slider down themes here on xda.
I will say it isnt free but well worth the money and works a dream on the sgs2
Hope this helps

These locksccreen couldn't be ported. They havent been ported to any stock rom phone. They work for any MIUI port but not on stock.
Use widgetlocker if you want but I don't like having another apps running in background and thus consuming battery only to have a lockscreen. Plus wl could be incompatible with apps tracking the screen unlocked as so it isn't a real lockscreen (embedded in system) but an app that SIMULATES a lockscreen

Battery times seem alot better then stock (though i didnt charge > 8 times on stock, installed roms straight away. Batt. live seems to improve after first few charges)
The shortcuts are configurable only by changing its path in the xml of the lockscreen, not by MIUI interface.
For me, MIUI is the best rom for SGS2 atm...still waiting for CM tho

I know that it is possible to get a default lockscreen changed on the SGS II. Nitr8 SGSII ROM has the stock android lockscreen instead of Samsung, he advised me that you can use this old SGS thread and it works. As I'm a ROM cooker and not a themer and don't deal with frameworks, somebody else (Maybe a themer) can try it? thread on how to do it is here

Thanks for the info. I do the odd bit of xml changing for my themes. If its to do with xml maybe I stand a chance but if its smali I wouldn't know where to start, I think its time to do some reading and try and learn.
I would love to change this lockscreen. I'm going to try next week.
I don't like miui but I installed it on my desire just to try these lock screens and they are really nice.
Ok, I know there are a lot of threads with TW4.5 themes in the international GSII forums but I haven't been able to get any of them to work on our version...I was wondering if anybody had a link to something that has worked or the desire to port some of them.
I love this launcher, it's still got all of the functionality of stock TW but some cool features..so I'm trying to avoid going back to golauncher or LP to get a full theme...Really I just want to get rid of the darn Touchwiz icons in the dock, but one of the only things TW4.5 doesn't let you do is choose custom Icons. Anybody offer some help?

I'm not sure about the launcher.apk he linked, but for me all I did was install the manager.apk file and then find it in your app drawer "TW4 Manager", open then look under "check for updates & uninstall" then click latest stable version to get the newest one they have for release. Then you have to get to the launcher through the traditional channels (press home soft key, then if you're using a 3rd party launcher it will tell you to clear defaults (found in applications -> manage applications in main settings menu), or if using stock TW I believe it will just open up the typical window when there are multiple programs to complete the command, then click on the one you want)

Yeah, it's not perfect...but ultimately I'm surprised it's as good as it is considering the other options (LP, Go, ADW, etc.) that are probably a team of people doing full-time dev. I switched back to Golauncher EX because it's what I'm comfortable and it just used the screen better...smaller dock icons and better customization. I would love to keep some of the TW features though, and if there comes some nice themes for TW4.5 I'll be back.

Are you using Starburst Rom? If so, you may need to define which app is supposed to be opened with that button. If you are on starburst, go to menu, settings, lockscreen settings (at very bottom), overall ui settings, then click "long press search button app" and choose what you want to happen. Hope that's all that's wrong...I never had any unusual fc's on tw4.5 while I was using it.

Sorry about not responding sooner...been focused on the development threads and completely forgot about my own
I'm using LoStKernel Experimental and it has worked pretty well. I've been without a Loss of service since it's been installed (KNOCK ON WOOD). It's pretty quick and from what I can tell it does allow for overclocking. I'm not sure on this...but my SetCPU app says my phone has been at 1.4 GHz for a good amount of time and it must allow under clocking because it says I've been at 500 GHz for most of the time (that's my "screen off" setting).
Ultimately the under/over clocking would appeal to you for both speed & battery life. Stability might suffer a bit from this kind of thing BUT I haven't experienced any stability issues with the LoStKernel exp....that's not to say you won't because each piece of hardware is different and each persons app load and usage is completely different.
I have used the stock kernel, Zedo's 1.6 OC'd kernel, and most recently the LoStKernel, just for info.
Hope this helps!
PS - I switched to GoLauncher because I couldn't get themes to work either...so, yeah, I would suppose this thread is dead for the time being - but feel free to ask any other questions you might have for me & I'll try to get to 'em sooner. Subscribed now, so I'll notice.

Yes! Those are both great looking. It'll be nice to have some themeage that strays from blue and grey a little! haha
All of these themes look good but my personal favorite is [THEME][CM9] Black Infinitum - v3.0
Its a really nice Minimal Black theme and should work flawlessly on our CM9.. although i havent tested it the Samsung Galaxy i9000 is pretty much the same if not exactly...

The only thing I want from the Xperia theme is the settings and music app, which would actually be very easy to do but I'm not sure if I'm ready to use cm9 yet.

+1 for this theme! Looks great! Can it be ported to the epic? If so, I would love to have it. I'll test for anyone who wants to try. Does anyone know if they'll be incorporating the theme chooser engine into cm9? The main thing keeping my girl from switching from 7 to 9 is that there are no pink themes for it yet. She uses the Punk Pink theme chooser theme on cm7 and adores it.

why not just make a nand and try cm9 out for a few hours? if you dont like it, it takes 5 minutes to restore your backup. thats what i did for alpha 0. it was too unstable for me to stay longer than 6 hours, so i went back to 7, same for alpha1. i've been on alpha2 since about 5 minutes after they put it up and, honestly, i dont think i'll be switching back. i do miss the functionality of cm7 and all the awesome settings to play around with, but cm9, even with half (if not more) the settings unavailable, is incredible. once all of the settings are available, and theres some more options available for the launcher, i've no doubt this will be the best rom the epic has ever seen. and i have a ton of faith in our cyanogen team. theyre amazing and very hard working. they pump these bad boys out like theyre getting paid for piece work!

I tried it with alpha0 and I didn't like it. It was great and all, but I'm use to the stability and full functionality of CM7. CM9 will be amazing, but I'd still rather wait for my apps to be compatible, more settings to be implemented, and overall just ironed out a bit more. It's close but some things are a deal breaker for me.

Any news on the lunarUI port?
I was wondering if someone could port the MIUI Power Control Widget to AOSP or Stock Samsung Roms.
I think it looks really good. It has got the same function as the AOSP toggles but if you click the 3 dots, a bigger menu opens (see screens attached).
Thanks in advance!
Don't shoot me for asking again, but does anybody know of this or of some kind of alternative that looks this clean?

I've been asking this for a while in different forums but it seem to fall on deaf ears. I would like to see it replace the stock power control widget that you seem to get in all roms as the miui one look soo much nicer.

thanks mate but all I would like is the some help on how to extract the widget from mihome launcher app and add it to miui roms as I use the full Miui v5 for my phones. thanks anyway
but if you know what and how I am very willing to learn. :fingers-crossed:
Ya know, i have never even seen that get brought up before. It is a beautiful widget and would be great if someone can port it. Im not too sure if it is possible though because it may require the miui framework which has quite a few changes from aosp. If your interested, I have a section in my thread (link in sig) that has all (at least to my knowledge) MIUI ports to date.

hey thanks mate will have a read I'm currently using miui v5 from HERE
it's the unofficial miui v5 so as far as my thick skull knows with it's less than average knowledge of these things it should be compatible/work.
would I be right in thinking that getting the right xml files and graphics from the mihome launcher app and putting them into the rom somewhere e.g. framework-res.apk, frameworkmiui-res.apk or miuihome.apk should add the widget to the rom? or am I way off?
What do u think guys Lineage OS will continue to use Stock android UI or they will bring a new refreshed ui with new icons??
icons are ok, maybe a a tone darker shade is welcome.
i think new ui is better than stock android
Stability should always be paramount. If your phone crashes constantly then the only pretty it will be is pretty useless. Keeping closer to stock theme and killing bugs should be priority.
Stock ui would be best. Let theming deal with anyone's desire for a different look
Why not shipping with a stock and a original themes?
I mean, the stock theme and theme engines are already there, right?
I think doesnt matter how good the new theme is, whatever is made different than stock will make some happy and other mad, this way you guys have more creative freedom to try wildly different things if you want, haters just use the stock theme and shut up.
Can even be chosen at the initial setup (or Aroma, not sure why CM never used it)

But why new icons and different graphics would impact stability?
Im pretty sure there are some guys with graphic design but no programming skills that could not help otherwise.

It depends on what new UI we are talking about... take MIUI for example, its a pretty decent ROM but I personally dont lik its Iphone-y UI.
That said, it doesnt matter if we have a theme engine and the option to use a stock(ish) UI

Correct, stock android consumes less ram compared to sense ui touchwiz ui etc
I think stock look! Honestly stock is better in most cases, and if you don't like stock then you can always add a theme on it
Also beauty is on the eye of the beholder, so no one can complain with stock

I don't really care about the big icons and all that stuff, because as i said, i like my phone to be as stock as possible. That the reason i moved out of sense ui in the first place
I am running LinageOS prebuilt and I could not notice any change in UI except for the boot animation, its like moto devices now, cool...
But I didn't found LATER (Linage Android Theme Engine Reborn)
