Ring lockscreen - Xperia Arc Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

From where i can download and install only the lockscreen (and maybe with all the settings and customization) that's in the latest FXP 129 - CM 9.0? I've been searching this forum and i didn't find so far what im interested.
Thanx

not sure if theres a way to change it without changing full rom...
could be wrong though
i use widget locker from the market
pretty good and does the job excellently with customisation

What rom are you using? If you're on stock 4.0.4 (.431 build) you can try this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1702338
It will make your stock rom to have an AOSP look. However, if you just want the circular lockscreen just copy the framework-res.apk and move it to /system/framework. Don't forget to change the permissions.

Thanx a lot! I'll give it a try!

I got in touch with a modder who created a script to enable landscape touchwiz in SGS ..he said he ll try,lets hope he succeeds
using my leisure time to figure out the solution..plzz recommend about this to modders if you know any...this can happen only if we unite..
Hi.
I had a look at your modded launcher from post #1 and it seems you are familiar with apktool!?
You only have to edit AndroidManifest.xml, change nosensor to user (see below)
Code:
android:screenOrientation="user"
What I read in this thread, it seems you have the same problems I had with my modded launcher
scheichuwe said:
...
It may happen that the first flash won't work (even with an alternative launcher installed). If that happens, restore the original launcher and retry again. Another thing I don't have an explantion for...
...

Second time you flash the modded launcher it should work (I don't know why).
And don't forget to install another launcher while flashing
Hope that helps
I can upload an edited apk when I'm back home, but it seems to be easier if you try by yourself (as I don't have a Galaxy Ace to test).

Cause i say this mod support transparent statusbar..

Thx guys. Figured it out. NONE of the themes I like/use supported it. I tried it with LunarUI, and it worked. Unfortunately I don't like it, so I will go back to my usual themes, without transparency. Maybe they will support it in the future.
Can anyone recommend a nice theme, which supports transparent status bar?

[Q] How to change aplication icon???

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.

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:

And don't forget that system applications is much easier to change the icons since you doesn't need to use AUTOSIGN.. Cheers!

[APP][THEMED]+[DIY]HTC lockscreen without shortcut icons

hey guys i read that many wanted htc's lockscreen without those shortcut icons.
So here I present it to you.
Instructions:
Just flash in CWM recovery and enjoy and also thank me.
just for stock sense roms (android 2.3.5)
Dont know if it will work on deodexed stock rom.
Purely works on odexed stock roms(android 2.3.5).
[DIY]
1.) Pull the HtcLockscreen.apk from system/app
2.) On your computer rename the file to Htclockscreen.zip .
3.) Open it using any archive manager and go to res/drawable-mdpi
4.) Extract png named lockscreen_shortcutpanel.png
5.) Edit it in any software which supports transparent pngs ( example paint.net on windows)
And make it completely transparent.
6.) Now again open Htclockscreen.zip and go to res/drawable-mdpi and exchange the file we edited.
7.) Now rename the archive to .apk and push it back to system/app on your phone.
8.) Now real part - when you'll restart you'll see the shortcuts- don't panic I am sure you did it right . This time the shortcuts won't have the background if you followed everything correctly.
9.) Install an app you know you'll never use.
10.) Change all the shortcuts to that app and........ And unistall that app and go see your beautiful lockscreen.
Please post and tell if it worked.
It will cause that is what the zip has and it worked on my friends wfs too.Also don't forget to thank me and share this with everyone who has sense with this type of lockscreen. You can post it any where just give me a little credit bcoz typing a tutorial on phone kills fingers
not working on deodexed rom's

Only Sense 3.5 has this feature... HTC's lockscreen (Sense 2.1 one) is buggy in WFS. I'll try it when I install Sense ROM again.
Won't flash for me.
Gives error 0
Installation aborted
Looks nice though, if you have any idea why, I'd be grateful.
Don't know man but if you say I'll create another package and pm you the link
I used app2 zip for making it .
Works for me all the time .
Currently on cm9 so why don't u just try extracting and copying the three files to the internal memory.
And thanks for the sense keyboard its easier to type now.

Added a DIY for those having problem. Well I edited the app on my phone cause I live in hostel and don't have a computer.
@ONeill123 - seems like you had been searching for this since january. Use the DIY and make it for yourself. Sorry can't help more than that. Not too much familiar with odex and deodex terms.

[MOD] & [HOWTO] CM9 / ICS Pattern Lockscreen w/o emergency call button

As the title says this MOD will remove your emergency call button in the pattern lockscreen.
I´ve modified the Pattern Lockscreen this way the button diasppears. So no more unwanted emergency calls while you have your phone in your pocket.
Just remember. Noone else will be able to call with your phone in case of emergency unless he/she knows how to unlock your phone.
Since there are various custom ROMs with a modified framework and since the framework in Arcos CM9 may differ in each release, I decided to write a little HOWTO.
First you need is my modified pattern lockscreen xml file you can download here:
Rapidshare or Dropbox
Extract it and copy the framework-res.apk from your phone or your flashable ROM to your PC.
Open the framework-res.apk with 7zip and navigate to the res\layout folder there.
Copy and paste my keyguard_screen_unlock_portrait.xml into this folder to replace the current xml file there.
Close 7zip and move the modified framework-res.apk to your sdcard.
Move it to the system folder in your phone and set the permissions to rw-r-r.
Use Root Explorer for the following step!
After the permissions were set correctly, move it to the framework folder and reboot your phone.
That´s all.
Below is a flashable Zip for Arcos beta3.
Rapidshare
Dropbox Mirror
yow honey!
you rock!
-salute!
By only for the vanilla cm9 by arco, do you mean that it won't work on the roms based on it like biohazard?

Well. The modification is inside the vanilla framework and this mod is flashing the modified vanilla framework, so can´t tell. But as long as the framework isn´t modified there, it will. Unfortunally a lot of custom ROMs are using modified frameworks. These would need to be modified as well.
