[TUT] How to change your lock ring on Sense 2.1 l Windows l Simple - HTC Wildfire S

How to change you lock ring on Sense 2.1 ​
Before you start:
*Use Root Explorer to copy HTCLockscreen.apk from /system/app/
*Download apk manager from here: click me
1. Extract apk manager to your desktop
2. Place HTCLockscreen.apk under "place-apk-here-for-modding"
3. Launch Script.bat
4. Select 22 (Set current project)
5. Select 1 (HTCLockscreen.apk)
6. Now select Extract Apk (1)
7. Go back to the apk manager folder and go int the project folder
8. Now you will see a folder called "HTCLockScreen"
9. Open it and go into /res/drawable-mdpi/
10. Look for "lockscreen_ring.png"
11. Now you can change the color, add words, shape, etc. Remember to keep its resolution to 160x161.
12. After editing your ring, go back into the apk manager script and select option 3 (Zip apk)
13. Now select 1 since it is a system apk
14. Now go back into "place-apk-here-for-modding" and you will find "unsignedHTCLockScreen.apk".
15. Now use Root Explorer to Move and Replace HTCLockScreeen.apk to /system/app/
16. Reboot and enjoy your new lockring.
The next post will have a set of new ring you can replace with.

To resize them just go to http://www.picresize.com make sure they are 160x161
THANKS TO MOHIT1234 FOR THESE NICE RINGS!!!

It only works on 2.3.5+. You basically killed your sense slider and it used the aosp one instead.

Check the permissions of the apk.
Also, check to see you didn't throw a de-odex APK (as described in Post #1) into an odex'ed ROM, without removing the .odex first.
My money's on the permissions (assuming you're using a Sense 2.1 ROM, as you say).

[THEME] Clean TW Lockscreen Mod

Hi everyone!
I didn't like the animated arrows on Samsung's lockscreen, but couldn't find a mod for it here.
So I tweaked it a bit to remove the text and the arrows Here's a preview:

XWJPA
XWJPA (with multi-locale support)
XXJPO (with multi-locale support)
How-to:
1. Decompile framework-res.apk, navigate to \res\values\
2. do a search for strings.xml files in explorer
3. Drag and drop all the files from the search results into Notepad++
4. Find using REG expressions:
zzz_glass_lock_help_text_2.*
replace with:
zzz_glass_lock_help_text_2"> </string>
(Tip: use the "replace in all open documents" button)
5. Save all files
6. Compile apk as usual
Nice m8. Works great.
Edit: Noticed that I still have the text for swiping the screen. Did you remove only english text because mine is in finnish?
What is the name of the file you have edited to remove the wordings?
Nice
Can you also make this for JPM please?

For English, it's under res\values\strings.xml
Do a search in the file for zzz_glass_lock_help_text_2
You can also find other strings.xml files for various languages in other values folders (e.g. values-es)
Is it possible to get this for JM1? I would absolutely love this D:

As JPO and JPA seem to be mostly different in localization I would take a wild guess and say yes.
You better prepare an update.zip with your vanilla framework though better safe than sorry.

I agree.. i love the look of this theme..
If it included the ext. power menu.. I would use it forever.. lol
Maybe this is something that can be done by me if someone tells me how?
Also i am a noob with this stuff.. i have no idea how to install this even with instructions in thread.. So i would like to make this into a cwm flashable zip.. with the power menu added. If it's easy maybe someone could tell me how or just cook it up for me?

[Q] How to change lock slider?

Is there anywhere I can get Lockscreen sliders for DHD? And is it possible to flash them through CWM?
I have been looking and I can't seem to find them. Thanks
There is an app on the market called widget locker, which allows you to have a choice of many different sliders (it also allows you to place any widget on your lockscreen) it can be slow at times (although it may not be on a HD as the last time I used it was on a Hero)

Yeah I tried widget locker but it didn't have much of a nice look. Plus i was after something flashable with CWM. This way its more native. thus faster. Thanks anyway
If you like the AOSP Lockscreen, you can just rename or delete (of course i would recommend to rename first) /system/app/HtcLockScreen.apk

I tried that but the stock lockscreen is still stock. Even after i deleted it and rebooted.
The AOSP lockscreen is in the framework too but you cant use it.

I use Revolution HD and there it works, too. Maybe it really doesn't work with the stock ROM, but who uses stock?
Is there a way to change the slider to answer calls because i still have the stock htc one
This would be interessting for me too. Im also with the leedroid and deleted the lockscreen apk, but for incoming calls there is still the htc lockslider.

[MIUI-V4] Minimal-White icon pack

UPDATED: All MIUI icons are covered + more, Im working on system icons now hope you guys like it!!!!
I like to share this icon pack i've been working on for MIUI v4 is not finish yest by any means but they're so nice I figure some of our miui lovers here could use something fresh

}
To install copy the mtz to the MIUI/themes directory on the SD card of your device, select it from within Theme Manager’s Local icon tab and apply
minimal white.mtz
95 icons so far but i will make more, not all default icons that come with miui are covered yet but I will work hard in the next couple days to make it happen
Icon Request
If any of you guys or girls will like to have a more complete icon pack I will take any request, all you have to do is find the process name:
how to get the process name
1st way
1. got to https://play.google.com/store
2. search for app you need and click it
3. for example root explorer:
in the url bar you can see the process name which is the blue, it wont be blue on your browser but it will start with (com.)
Code:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=[COLOR="Blue"]com.speedsoftware.rootexplorer[/COLOR]&feature=search
2nd way
1. download SystemPanelLite Task Manager from the market
2. open the specific app you need
3. press home button
4. go to SystemPanelLite
5. press the desired app name
6. you can see the process name
3rd way
Use a file manager like root explorer to navigated to /data/data and look up the process name, the only thing is by doing it this way you wont see a picture of the app so is a little hard to guess which is which

hi, great post. thank you.
i am using an unrooted SGS2.
i guess i cant use all of these unrooted. just installing the apk files whichever has it, is an option for me rite. like the sense launcher, lockscreen and sense clock?? does it require rooting too?
just a quick question: the sense 4 clock does have also the animation?
and also this kind of animation can be added to the lockscreen?

HTC one lockscreen

Two days with this phone and I'm pretty happy with it, I like the new sense for the most part but one thing I don't like is the horrible lockscreen ..
I know I can use a lockscreen app but idk

Yea I tried them all, none make the locksreen better imo, I don't like the clock there at the bottom like that

There is the option for no lockscreen at all, which is what I chose. I don't like the default one either.
I'm not too much a fan of the lockscreen either. Right now I'm using default ics theme on widgetlocker and using clokr for the clock. Looks and feels much nicer.

If you have root, you can get the AOSP lockscreen by renaming all of the Idlescreen_*.apk files to Idlescreen_*.apk.bak or to anything else that does not end in apk

Would these hold on reboots? I thought \system\app wouldn't hold on reboot due to write protection.
Lastly, if they do hold on reboot would I be able to return to stock by changing it back to .apk?

Those are great questions that hopefully CNexus can answer for you because I haven't a clue. In fact, I've been waiting to hear back on your experience before trying it myself. =)
It seems to me that it should work as expected if the files were renamed but I'm not sure about the write protection though.
Flash aroma file manager in recovery and rename from there. If you do it while the system is booted it will not hold since there is no kernel source to disable system write protection at the moment

I just tried this, but it does not show /app under /system. Only /bin. Any idea why?
Just saw this in the Q/A forum. Props to XPEric who stumbled upon it.
Without root you can get the ASOP lockscreen.
1. Go to system/apps
2. Copy HTCLockscreen.apk
3. Paste in /sdcard
4. Try to install (it will fail)
5. Reboot and you will have the ASOP lockscreen
I have no idea why this works but it does.

Yeah, the problem is there doesn't seem to be a way to reverse it if you were to change your mind (except with a backup of course). The solution here (if rooted) would allow me to rename the files to get the HTC Lockscreen back if I changed my mind.

Did you make sure system was mounted?

I just tried this and my phone locked up right before the initial splash screen ended.

Were you able to get it to work by renaming the 7 idlescreen APK files to .bak? I made sure I got all 7, but it never booted into the phone. I had to change them back for it to boot.
