hey guys im new to xda and i was wondering is there an app or a hack that allows 2.1 have the old 1.6 lockscreen because it is way better to use.
THX
I use Lockbot. I think you actually have to pay to gain access to the 1.6 lockscreen.

is there a way that the lockscreen for froyo can work on a 2.1 ROM? it might be the same as the regular vanilla lockscreen but the froyo one has some good animations and it makes the current wallpaper in the homescreen as the lockscreen one. so is there a way?
I'm not positive but I think the answer is no. Froyo uses API level 8, 2.1 uses API level 7.

^^check out this thread, It is pretty much the same as your question but he is trying to get the froyo launcher on 2.1 instead of the lockscreen.
PS:You should just use a froyo rom, their are some great ones on the forums.
ok thanks i would use froyo but theres alot of downsides to froyo especially on eris

Like what? The only problem I could think of was camera preview not working, but that has been fixed recently.

i have that for 2.1 but i tried froyo and i like how the lockscreen hides the homescreen using the current wallpaper and it has the music controls. also i can add my own message on it
White widow has the same lockscreen it may be a cyanogen mod thing.
can i extract that and install in to any rom?
Hello everyone ,
Every one who installed Froyo 2.2.1 to his xperia x10 know that the application menu look really sexy. It seems like it's a cube that is movine up/down.
Is there any way to port this to 2.1? I hope you understand what I mean x)
You mean the app drawer? if so, then you can use one of the best ones e.g. LauncherPro+, ADW.Launcher EX.
And enable the '3D App Drawer' in them.
Yeah thats it, thanks
Sooo has anyone ported the gingerbread lockscreen to android 2.2
I have an xperia x10 running free x10 beta 4
Also, I have not yet tried the gingerbreae custom rom yet because of not wanting to change basebands, but does that have it?
by gingerbread lockscreen i mean the old style tv animation when the phone gets locked, like on the nexus s
i have seen it ported to the iphone so it can't be that hard to port to other anroid devices
No they havent they will most likely keep it exclusive to GB just cuz why not change BB? If you worried bout Dual touch you still keep that xD
well the gingerbread is missing a lot of features like video playback and camera that i use on a daily basis
... the standard Android lockscreen?
Coming from Stock Android 2.2 lockscreen on my Hero (was using FroydVillain) the SGS2 lockscreen is really a big annoyance and I'd like to replace it with stock Android lockscreen. Is that possible ? (the phone is rooted)
Im not entirely sure, but I think there is an app you can get from the Market place called Widget Locker. You can customise your own Lockscreen doing that. I guess you could make it look like Stock Android if you wanted.
Hello,
I recently got an Xperia X10a and upgraded it from Android 1.6 to 2.1. Everything works great except I am wondering if it is possible to change the new menu back to a pull-up menu like the 1.6 version had. I'm sorry if this is a noob question but I've searched all over these forums and even Googled it but could not find an answer. I don't know if there is a simple way to do it or if rooting and modding is required, but I'm willing to do whatever it takes.
Also, what is the simplest way to change the lockscreen back to the original 1.6 style?
Many thanks in advance!
Lockbot Pro does the job for lockscreen..!!
Thanks, that seems to solve my lockscreen problem. Now the phone is almost perfect.
It would be nice if I can figure out how to get the pull-up menu back. I know it should be possible...

Firstly learn to hit the thanks button in return for some help and secondly the pull up menu was a part of 1.6 launcher.. i think that's not possible unless custom launcher devs like adw etc make some provisions for it..
Hmm, well isn't ADW open-source? Maybe I'll be able to use that to make a pull-up menu myself. After all, I do have some coding experience, it should be possible...
Also, I don't know Android too well yet, but if I root my phone then what's keeping me from modifying the launcher directly?

if you know coding.. then there's hope..!!
If you want to do that i hope you are well skilled in coding...
BUT: I think there'd be no other way to get what you want...
