Hello, does it exist a .zip for install 5 lockscreen in CWM?

You could use lockbot pro think that will give you extra lock screen styles

Not lockbot but only 5 lockscreen

Looking for that too, I wonder if there is something available.

Just flash a theme with 5 lockscreens, most of the themes includes 5 lockscreens...
But doesn't it depend on the rom?
I mean, the unlock screens are a rom feature or a theme feature?
I would put my money on the themes. But I'm not 100% sure.
Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.

Most themes won't work without a Modified ROM. I could maybe try and extract the files from a ROM that has it and make a CWM update file. Only thing is I need to write a script to make it work and I haven't yet learnt how to do that yet.
up ?
Or juste epic lockscreen . zip plz ?

i want to have 5 lockscreen without flash a theme, is it possible? only 5 lockscreen on a stock fw
I too would like to know this. I searched for this a while ago, but couldn't find anything.
My understanding is that the 5 lockscreens modification is theme related, but that doesn't mean that they can not be included in a ROM.
I'm a total noob when it comes to these things.
I did manage to remove the 'Swipe Glass to Unlock' message by using a hex editor on a themes framework-res apk and replacing the string with a whole bunch of spaces (hence why I think this is theme related) but anything beyond that is above me. To be honest I was surprised that even worked and it almost looked as if some of the strings visible in the hex editor were in Portuguese or something....?!?
Then again I would assume the Settings.apk would need to be modified in order to include the extra option in 'Display' settings but I have flashed a different settings apk before and got no change (apart from the icons that were changed).
I cant even figure out why I can't view xml's from an unpacked APK on my PC, yet using root explorer they are all in plain English on my phone..... so I really have no clue in the world about these lock screens, but at least I tried.
Wow... what a rant that was.
Point is, anyone who has a good knowledge on this stuff, your opinion would be appreciated.
Android apks can be classified in two forms:
-compiled and
-decompiled.
When in compiled form, xmls will be in a gibberish, so no readable text can be deciphered. Android can only read this gibberish.
If you want to edit it, you need to decompile it, this will make it readable and understandable.
Decompiling is very important so you can really modify anything. Also very important for .9 pngs, as the boundaries are distinguishable.
Hope this helped, btw im still a noob themer compared to some of the other blokes here.

Well, i have theme that has 5 locksreecn, but the Epic Lockscreen is modified, is it possible for me to flash the "normal" Epic Lockscreen on CWM and have it normal (not moded)? If yes, maybe any links?
Thanks

Look for Stockmod Plus.
From looking around google, I found a guide on another forum that gives a few details on what files need amended, based on it, it appears that you need to amend the framework-res.apk and a few .jar files...
If my understanding is right, you don't want to flash a full theme, I understand, I'm the same, want the 5 locks but Not a full theme, even if it claims to be stock or not...
From what I have read, the files that need changed are as follows:
Framework-res.apk, framework.jar, android.policy.jar, Settings.apk, and services.jar
I guess you could download the StockMod .zip, open it with 7zip, you will find a folder called system\framework, if you Delete all the files from it except the ones mentioned above and then flash the .zip, I assume it will give you the lock screens and possibly the power button options (may need other files such as TWFramework-res.apk) with minimal theme change at all, but I don't know for sure as the Themers seem to want to keep this information to themselves so you flash their Full themes...
Otherwise the only other way is to extract the files from your phone, decomile them, edit them and re compile them etc... but a guide would be nice
Hopefully a nice Dev will come along and share some details...
so has anyone made some update.zip or something to install lockscreen without new theme????
Has anyone got the Pulldown background animation to work in the UOT online kitchen?
The kitchen cooks the systemu.apk file just fine without any errors but when I apply it to the system, it fc's and leaves me without the status bar on top... I'm using .145 global generic. And yes I have set the proper permissions when using root explorer (the other themed files such as framework.apk work just fine)
Any advice would be greatly appreciated
Thanks
Hi
Ya lost my status bar after changing it on uot ,had changed everything on on it so wasnt sure what caused the fc
Just put my old one back for now
I had android circle and it worked changed to heart beat and fc happened(also changed every other setting)
Is the animation the only thing you changed
Sorry I cant help to much ,but if ya need orignal systemui let me know and ill upload it for ya.
Good luck

Sorry just read your post again ,did you set premissions before overwriting file ie put in system then change premissions then move to system/app and overwrite then reboot
Have to set premissions before ya put it in system/app
Again best of luck
Sent from my LT15i using XDA Premium App
Thanks for the reply and yes i've themed my arc before and no problems, so i'm thinking it has something to do with the systemui.apk...
I'm not skilled enuff to decompile the pack and edit the xml setting and what not...
I was hoping someone with maybe some programing experience can help us get animated backgrounds on the pull down menu...
I know its not a neccessity but it would be cool to have.
Thnaks and hopefully we can find a solution to this issue
Hello guys.
I already searched the web and xda and can't find a thread which explains how to change them.
I want to change the color and maybe the style of my status bar icons.i read about different methods.
I don't really want to use a different rom,with go launcher ex i've got everything perfect except the status bar icons.
I read that the icons arw saved in framework-res.apk. but i can't find any sets of these file to change it out.
I have a stock rooted s2 with android 2.3.6
Thanks for your help

Go to you SystemUi.apk (in system/app folder), copy it to your PC.
Open it with rar or with zip7.
You will get acess to the res/drawable-hdpi folder.
Unrar or unzip this folder to your desktop. In it are all the icons that you wanna change... change them as you like... Put the folder back on the apk using the same rar or zip7.
Now - finally - you will have to resign the apk again (search how, 1st time it´s hard to get it right).
Push it back to the phone, backup the original as systemui.bak, and write this one over it.
Install it, reboot.... enjoy
Thanks me 10x if I helped .

I meant to ask if you tried UOT kitchen??

Its easy to use but if you get stuck just ask.
Even simpler, use the theme kitchen.

You can even use it for odexed (stock) roms.

There is actually an app called NinjaMorph that you can get from the play store, its what I used for my S2 to changed some icons and you can do it all on your phone, the app will unzip then zip the apk automatically, all you have to do is pick the PNG your replacing the old one with, make sure you got the new PNG in your phones SD card that's all.

is there a way to change other icons? like wifi, data etc.. i have xposed. but i can only change battery icons with it.
i'm using repencis by now..
and i see that the 'important' apps icon changed (such as messages and gallery) after flash into repencis....
the question: how to do that? how to changed the icon?
edit the apk(s)? or we can make a CWM-flashable *.zip file?
well,i'm really newbie here.. any rom developer,please don't be mad at me?
Not difficult but neither easy. For repensis, make another ROM based on that. for newbies, I don't think you should try this, but if you think, pm me.

Use Custom Patcher. Settings>Repencis Labs>Custom Patcher and select any app from the list. It takes you to your Gallery. Select any icon you wanna replace it with.

Update to v3. Its better, IMO. Since you dont have Repencis Labs, download DCSMS Icon Patcher 1.0. You can change icons with this.
Are you talking about the user applications like facebook, tweeter, games, etc.?
If that's the case then this instructions will help you.. (i'm not good in making instructions by the way since i'm not really good in english )
I did it manually by dragging the modified icons with the same filename and size in the res / drawable-ldpi folder inside the apk file using Winrar then i used AUTOSIGN to resign the apk (i used photoshop to resize & do a little editting on icons)..
here's my modified apk icons, i used YouEye icon theme:

Hello to everybody!!!
Finally the mod is complete!!!
A true new vanilla (holo stock) style theme is ready and can be installed on our device like a simple application!!!
No root required, no change in system directory, no strange operation to do! just install the APK in attachment.
You will have a new theme in the list, it is similar to stock JB theme.
It is for Italian version (E975) but it should works on other versions too! (please send feedback about)
Enjoy!!!!! and hello to everybody!!!!
I will be happy to receive feedback.
P.S. I found that is possible to make and install how much theme we want on our phone! LG rules this time!
EDIT
in the next pages you can found and download other very nice themes created by Syhon! (iphone,xperia Z, sense 5 and many more)
thanks to Syhon
EDIT 2

Can´t you just name differently? I.e "LGHome3_Theme_Holo".
What tools do you use to compile and recompile?

Hello,
simply APK tool. I've tried to rename it (not only the pack, but decompiling and re-compiling the entire smali content) but then, it was not recognized by the launcher. Now I'm full of work and I can't spent time on this. maybe in the next week I can attempt to make a better mod.
Anyway, without tool, you can just substitute icon you want in APK file with winrar
bye
I threw in a bunch of new icons in "drawable-xhdpi" with winrar and then pushed the apk back to system but it didnt work so i guess i have to rename all icons to corresponding original names if i want it to work Thanks for the tip!

Ok. So here are my conclusions:
- It looks great and it is the best thing you can install on your optimus g
- You used odexed file so it need corresponding .odex file which probably means that you cannot change name without: a) deodexing or b) using correct .odex file.
- You used icons with too small resolution so they are not looking so good as they should be

Yes you are right! mine is just an idea to implement. I will try to deodex the file, modify it and to make a copy as a new theme. If it will work, for sure a better theme can be done, But now I don't wont to spent time on one of the stock theme (as the mode work now), just becouse I dont wont to corrupt any file in system directory to avoid problem with future update
next week for sure I will have much time to implement it. If someone could help I will be very gratefull

Hello to everybody!!! this is my first mod for this phone. I've modified stock biz theme to trasform it on a stock JB holo theme
You need a root devices. Just copy the attached file in system/app folder and replace the original biz theme apk. (remember to make a backup before!!!!!!)
Please be sure to assign RW-R-R permission. Then restart device!!!
It is for Italian version (E975) I don't know if works on other versions
I've no much time, so I will be really greatfull if someone can found a way to create new theme without overwrite existing ones.
Theme can have some imperfections, for example app drawer in landscape is not modified. Please consider this a beta.

Hello, i've tryied again and the files in attachment still works. First step is to extract all the files in the same folder. Then you will have 1 zip and 3 other file. Now just extract the zip one (I've used win zip).
Anyway... In the next hours i will post the new version! So you can simply wait
In the new version you don't have to substitute a stock theme... But you have just to copy the apk in system folder to have a all new vanilla extra theme! coming very soon!
