yup thats it .. i like it alot

Love the lockscreen. I'm just looking at the LG files, there in a .kdz format which I've no clue how to port. Maybe lockbot might have an LG version or something. In any case, this launcher is zippy.

yea good find i like this launcher better than the new tw ... sounds dumb but i love the no lines google search bar up top . if we can get a lock screen port we are good to go .. anybody know where i can get more themes for this ? i dont really like the ones in the link

Damn, LG's UI is so identical to Samsung's Touchwiz, I'm surprised they're not suing each other with all this patents nonsense flying around. That lock screen though is definitely dope. Wish Samsung adds more eye candy to their skin overlay or maybe just leave the original ICS look alone.

glad you like it. I wanted something that would go with just about everything and still look good.
Thanks for that! Makes the effort worthwhile.

It must have been quite an effort... I've edited a few .9.png files, and its not fun. In fact, I've decided to avoid it as much as possible! Figuring out which files to replace is easy, but actually editing them and creating new images is a pain. Thankfully, there are quite a few nice themes already floating around. Lots of tutorials as well.
this is beautiful. anyone tried it on 3.9.1 yet?
smooth I like the icons.
+1 I wanna try with 3.9.1
Got stuck on the g1 screen when flashed on 3.9.1.
Was wonderimg if you can port this theme to 3.9.1

K. Ported to 3.9.1. Ported as fast as I could, so far as i can tell, everything works just fine. Let me know if there is any "weirdness" and I'll try to fix it.

I agree. If there were a color to add....in my opinion blue. And in fact only as a selection highlight.
Sooo, noob question:
There are two links - one for the thee, one for icons. Do the icons from the crenshots not come with the theme? How do we put them into it if not, just flash the .zip.
Related question: why not make theme that the icons can be switched in, like as if using ahome or something. that would be nice

The link for the icons is for bettercut/openhome/ahome/dxtop users who want to use the icons separately.
I would make a theme that can have switchable icons, but I'm not a programmer. You should try the modified launcher thread... I would definitely add that if someone else can code that into the current launcher Cyanogen is using

[Q] how to customize lockscreen?

ive seen alot of people with custom lockscreens like having a different picture on their lockscreen than the one on their homescreen. and some have widgets like typoclock.
how do you do all of this?

WidgeLocker from the market. Excellent highly customizable lockscreen app. Plus there is a whole thread on it with custom locks and such... Only thing is, it's not free.
Heres the link to that thread I mentioned earlier if you're considering the app:

I got rid of widget locker on my N1...Too buggy and slow for me
Being able to put the Handcent widget on the lock screen is worth the price of the app alone. I'm not a fan of the popup.

thats the only solution....?
Widget Locker.
You can get a *Pirated* version to do some testing...
At first I didn't like it much & didn't think it justified the cost, but it's great to have all your Go To Apps right on the Lock Screen along with the customization...
Once you purchase the App you get a lot more options & a much stabler build... Highly recommended.
I guess I haven't figured it out. Ijust purchased widget Locker, and it's pretty cool, but I can't get it to overwrite my actual lock screen setup.
Right now I slide the unlock slider, and that takes me to the phone's unlock slider, to then enter pswrd. Any way to go from widgetlocker straight to pw?
OP dude how the heck have you had so many phones...4 iPhones??? LOL
I tried it out on CM 6.1 and it was glitchy as hell .

hahahah, if you really love phones like i do, you find ways to get new ones every so often. i like to trade a lot on craigslist. you can really get some killer deals. traded my iPhone 3gs for my brand new g2. best. deal. ever.
so is there no way to set a different wallpaper for lock screen and home screen?
well so far i dont see any other app that allows u to do what widget locker does. Wish their was a trial version of this aswell but i took the leap and bought it and i was not disappointed at all. Its not that buggy at all on the g2 as long as u dont lock it and unlock really fast... than the screen flashes with the lock but thats the only problem i have so far. I havnt even modded my widget locker till i looked into this post! and WOW i love it even more now. i dont remeber how much i paid for the app but.. worth it def.!

[Q] What's this launcher?

I don't know what launcher that is.
looks like a modded version of launcher pro to me could be wrong tho!
it could also be adw or adw ex

ADW EX doesn't have that particular animation.. I hope it will soon tho. I'm not sure what launcher that is in the video.
Sorry bout the incorrect URL guys. Thanks for responding though. By the look of the hardware I assumed this might have been an older video even though it's 2.3, I think it is some sort of ADW or Launcher Pro but Its nothing I've been able to recreate or figure out. If anyone comes up with an idea feel free to chime in.
On the You tube video site someone posted it might be an Imagic launcher im not familiar with that name either.

The newer launcher pro, the .8.3 version has the flip animation, along with the cube, which i prefer.
iMagic? According to youtube comment.. I really like that launcher!
Can't be launcher pro. The flip option doesn't scroll through pages like that. I can't find anything relating to any iMagic. This ones a mystery my friend.

Thanks its whyI hesitated posting because I thought it was something more obvious. I've seen live home before I just don't remember the page turn gonna try it out so how laggy it is.
looks horrible.
I don't see it in the Market, but I see it here: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.mo.android.livehome
I assume this is because I'm using 2.3 (CM7)

using custom icons?

Just trying to figure out how to use custom icon packs? and where to get them?
Ive never really done much in the way of customising my phone, and just installed Go launcher EX..
Managed to get a nice black and white thing going but obviously all the icons are the standard sgs2 ones. so what would be the easiest way to replace them?
Thanks for any help
Still learning myself, but check this thread in the Android Themes forum (not specific to the SGS2)
Hope that's what you're wanting...
thanks for that..
Didnt realize you had to alter each icon 1 at a time linking each 1 to the one you want it to replace though... was kinda hoping just to download a pack,, install it and it would auto replace all the relevant icons., heh

[REQ]/[PORT] MIUI Themes/Lockscreens/Theme Manager

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:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1134657
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 tip, mate

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.
