[Q] Are there any CM7 custom lockscreens

Simple question is there a custom cm7 lockscreen? I found one for metamorph but I can't seem to get it too work. I have it morphed in but for some reason a no go.
Here is what I tried: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=959602&page=85

You have to put the morph you want in the android themes folder open metamorph and hit extract new theme and then apply all sometimes you have to do it twice then reboot

I've never had good luck with metamorph, it seems really buggy to me. I'd like to get some lockscreen customization too, but I just haven't found a very good solution.

May not be what you want to do, but Widget Locker will allow you to do pretty much anything you want to your lockscreen. Using CM 7 you can also go into the settings for Tablets and disable the stock lock screen. It works out pretty well.

Transparent lockscreen

I don't know how this works but I've tested it twice and both times it works!
I'm on teshxx stock rom.
How to get a transparent lockscreen like this below:
1. Set a picture from your gallery as your lockscreen
2. Boot into recovery (adb or volup + voldown + power)
3. Advanced > Fix permissions
Voila you should have an transparent lockscreen.

I don't think I'll be using this mod, but I must say that is a very cool design. Thanks for your contribution.

Easier way would be to just use a picture that is half transparent...
That's what I do and you don't need to reboot into recovery ect.

Awesome find OP. Worked perfectly for me.

Haha. I was playing with my phone yesterday and in the process got the transparent lockscreen, and I could not figure out how I did it, but now I know because I did a wipe and fixed permissions before it happened. Thanks OP.

awesome did the trick
thanks a lot.

None of this is really needed, just get a transparent image from google or use a photoshop to make one and set it as the lockscreen wallpaper.
M&S

What img format do I save it as for 50% transp?? I tried a png but it just shows up black in the gallery and after I set it.

App to No lockscreen??

Anyone know of a good no lockscreen app that really works at all times? I tried using the no lock by BoD in market but doesn't work all the time. It worked good on my G2, G2x it was working good either... Now with sgs2 either.. And also, doesn't touchwiz suppose to have the puzzle unlock, or is that other version or carrier version or overall a different lockscreen?

Go Locker.
Might as well install GoSMS and Go Launcher too while your at it.

Touchwiz does have puzzle lock. Go to Locations and Security in the Settings -> Change screen lock.
Haha yes I agree install Go launcher as well

I meant, the puzzle as to actual puzzles being put together to unlock.. Not the connect a dot

You can see in this video the puzzle unlock, I thought touchwiz had it..
Sent from my SGH-T989 using Tapatalk

That video is the Galaxy S not S2.
The S2 only comes with either dots or keypad.

Buy it's regular lockscreen, no password or pin needed, either way I thought it came with touchwiz.. Because the simple lockscreen they made sucks. Looks like sheet of paper to slide off and unlock and I do not want to use 3rd party app

Hi,
You can disable the lock screen without any app if edit this file /efs/imei/keystr with HexEditor. open the file and there is vales 4f and 4e that gives you the ON just change the 4e to 46 that will make it OF. save the file and reboot. that will disable the lock screen.

samsung needs to release a patch to address the lockscreen disappearing bug. It is too easy to bypass the lockscreen pin or pattern draw. I want to get this phone but might try to hold off until this is addressed.

accuweather transparent widget

Does anybody have the transparent widget that works with the ics update. I miss that... The blue color widget is horrible but the functionality is cool

I agree

here is the .apk for the semi-transparent weather widget. It's made to match the digital clock. i been using this with the stock rooted ics rom. i would show a screenshot but the i'm having trouble capturing a screenshot on a stock rom. amazing how i took that feature for granted when i had the option available in the advanced power menu in other roms.
just make sure to set the permissions to rw-,r--,r--
Almost forgot... this might go without saying for some.. but this gotta be pushed using root explorer. Don't try to install normally
my first ever custom apk... hope it works out for all

Would you happen to have the calendar version in semi-transparent ?

what i did was use root uninstaller app to remove the older one. there are 2 accuweather apps remove the one that is bigger in size. then use root explorer to drop the app in the system/app folder. reboot your phone and the app should be installed perfectly.
now simply add the new widget.:good:

[REQ] AOSP / CM 10.1 Lockscreen

Is it possible to swap the sony lockscreen for the cm 10.1 lockscreen?
tbe 3rd party apps seem to always be buggy and coming from htc i am missing the app launching from the lockscreen...
Sent from my C6603 using xda premium

you can switch to the stock lockscreen for 4.1, just simply mount system as R/W and delete /system/app/UxpNxtLockScreen.apk

This works
Now quest no. 2: how do i set up the shortcuts on the lockscreen?
Sent from my C6603 using xda premium

It s work fine exept wallpaper we cannot choose wallpaper andbthis is not in fullscreen....if someone find an issue....
Sent from my C6603 using xda premium

Yes size is not correct...and we can't choose wallpaper

Yeah,the sizing is not correct ,any solution guys?

Here's a little mod I've made and have been using for a while now.
It fixes the sizing and music controls.
Just put it in /vendor/overlay and set permissions to 644 (rw-r--r--) and reboot.
Get it here.
NB! .434 only, won't work on .253

Using lockscreen with PIN code
Hi guys!
I wanted to know if this mod (or really, any type of lockscreen; included the Sonys default one) could be used accompanied with a PIN code. I still can't figure it out how, and I don't really like third party apps.

^ no. if you really want double lock go download "widget locker" from the play store. Go set your pin/pattern, then set up widget locker and you will end up with double locks.

Hey guys.
I deleted UxpNxtLockScreen.apk and rebooted, and have the AOSP lockscreen.
However I can't change wallpaper and/or shortcuts on the lockscreen.
I tried mod by Terenn, but I get a bootloop. When I delete that file, I can boot again.
So while deleting Sonys default lockscreen does work and gives AOSP lockscreen, I would like to change shortcuts and wallpapers. Any other options?

Woah! This is not for Xperia z .253 ! Just rescued myself from a little bootloop !

Yeah, we need a new mod for the .253...

Well new .307 fw is out, could someone make that Terenn mod compatible for us, maybe even add option to customize shortcuts?
