Android AOSP's lock screen is transparent. i believe there are applications out there that will allow one to change the lock screen image even if on AOSP style ROMS.
might want to look into this http://market.android.com/details?id=com.teslacoilsw.widgetlocker

Good to know! I was just hoping for something like the nexus one/g2 etc lockscreen, just like that one in that thread but not see through lol. Is there anyway to pull the lock screen from cm6 or cm7 and make it a flashable zip to use on my phone if that makes sense? ha sorry for any confusion, like on my vibrant I could change the lockscreen to all these different ones but Im having touble finding any options with MT4G

I am not familiar with scripting so i do not know if that is possible. I know the link i posted ealier is simple way to get a AOSP lock screen. if that is what you are wanting. and it contains a flash-able Sense Lock screen.

That method is weird. You can see the icon instead of just you're wallpaper. Someone could probably pull the apk apart and set a wallpaper in it, but im not sure.

"Pulling" the Lockscreen.apk out of CM6/CM7 would be the same as deleting the HTCLockscreen.apk on a Sense-based ROM. the CM6/7 Lockscreen is a version of the AOSP Lockscreen, deleting HTCLockscreen.apk forces the OS to revert to the AOSP Lockscreen.
Option 94, you talking about the screen caps of Widget Locker? id ya are your not seeing them through the lockscreen, they are on the lock screen.

A New Lock Screen

Download widget locker from market it has a variety of lockscreens and extras.
Mod the lockscreen without root? Nah... you root access to replace system files.

if you are not rooted, most probably you will see two lockscreens.
anyway, lockscreen alternatives are; widgetlocker, lockbot, lockit etc......
Does anyone know how to replace the standard lockscreen on a rooted stock 2.2?
I have Widget Locker but now and again the original screen pops up and it can be a bit of a pain sometimes.
Thanks.

in my opinion, the reason you see 2 lockscreens is because of android system 5 second rule. any lockscreen other than stock one, will have to wait 5 to initialize. however, in widget locker you can bypass this rule. turn on home helper option in behaviour, and make sure 5 sec bypass is checked. if it is unchecked, check it.
hope it will help.

This is an issue with htc sense roms. on aosp roms like cm6 or cm7, the original lock never shows up with the 5 second root bypass rule activated.
Try Lockbot Pro..it has a variety of Lock screens to choose from like Eclair style, iPhone, Froyo etc....it shows up only one lock screen though..and you ve an option to unlock the screen using any hardware button not just power button, nifty feature
For not visualizer 2 lockscreen you must use no lock

[THEME][ZIP][HCDeskClock]

makes it so much nicer.
anyways.. just changed .png's ... all of them.. hdpi and mdpi, tested at 210&160, everything seems fine including widget.
so there it is enjoy, dont forget to comment and hit thanks
Let me know what else you might like to see themed.
Can u theme the lock screen?
Sent from the Unstoppable SuperStreak!
probably, its all in framework-res.
what do you want the honeycomb lockscreen? try ripple lock in the market. Its not too bad actually, except his lock icon is b0rked, cut off at the top.
what did you have in mind?
post a link..
edit: who uses a lock screen? just kidding, I have NoLock, I love it.
but really, I have the honeycomb font on my lockscreen using fontchanger, and custom sliders and tabs made with UOT Kitchen. Thats all I can do for themeing.
If you want a different stlye lockscreen that would have to coded/ported. I would say try lockscreen widget etc. or use NoLock.

I have NoLock, free in market..
just kidding, be back soon
here's my lockscreen..
the jog tabs and circles are in framework-res, so let me know what ROM you're running, and I could drop them into a stock ROM, you can get the ones I have on UOT Kitchen. Or if you have a custom framework-res, and want soemthing different you would have to upload yours and let me know what you have in mind. Font can be easily changed with fontchanger, just change clocktopia, I can up load th HCfont if you cant find it.
I have 1.9.1. How did u get the dell logo as wallpaper. I will have to gobto uot cause I have a custom framework.
Sent from the Unstoppable SuperStreak!
It's prob just a standard wallpaper, you can prob just rip it right out of the package and just select it like any other wallpaper
Edit: actually it's not included, you could ask him to post the orig if you wanna use it
found it buried in google images
here you go:
Wallpaper cropped for portrait. More here

I tried UOT kitchen, but the lockscreen tweaks seems to change only the sliders , cant get the others to work
are u able to do it?
what are you trying to change the circle icons inside the jog tabs? choose lockscreen icons in kitchen.. but there is only about 4 currently.
have you tried to theme the Stock Sms app?
having a nice dark blue Honeycomb like theme would be pretty nice.
sure I'll try messaging, I didn't think anyone used stock messaging

Thanks! What else can you theme then? It would be cool to be able to mess with Google Voice messaging and Google Talk... Theme it in color sets.
The UOT is so nice to use, but I'm not sure how you are doing the system files. I know that there is some write ups re setting Phone and Contacts.apk as transparent. Haven't gotten that to work on Streak 5 yet though. Seems to be Nexus specific.
after messing with white menu text all day, no luck.. long story, anyways next I will do a HC Messaging app and try to update my HC Framework.
I dont use Google Voice or GTalk much, so not likely from me.

any application replace the samsung ugly lock screen

I tried widgetlock but it doesn't support table landscape mode. sad.
What is ugly about it? You can change the wallpaper for the lock screen. Samsung is just using the stock honeycomb lockscreen.
You can place any picture you want on the lock screen. Just go into settings/screen/screen display and then change the lock screen wallpaper.
Don't like the time/date font. also I would prefer some extra information like alarm ....
I want to get something like below for my tablet.

+1 That looks awesome. I too was sad when WidgetLocker just didn't pull it off. I love it on my phone. I don't hate the lockscreen, but I'd love to customize it.
I found this ripple lock and it looks quite decent.

WidgetLocker definitely does support the Tab in landscape - I should know, I'm using it.
That's not to say it's without it's issues, there are the standard WidgetLocker niggles but it definitely works.

[Q] Changing Icon Sets

Hey everyone. I was wondering if there was a method to change the icon set in Touchwiz 4.0 (yes im rooted) to something else other then what they have as stock.
And furthermore, ARE there any icon sets out there? I saw a couple of cool looking screens in the post your screenshot thread, but i'm not sure if that was because they were using some different launcher.
Thanks,
diabolical
I am also interested in this. I really like touch wiz ui and all the features but i strongly dislike the childlike icons. Is there anyway we can change the icons without changing launchers?
I was wondering if we can have the
HTC Sensation XE Lock screen (with the circle to launch)
on the Samsung Galaxy S ll
The HTC lockscreen is cool. Just get the app Agilelock. It duplicates it perfectly. Only issue i found is right when you install, it pops up a message that you cant read, unless you can read some form of chinese. Hit the right button. The left button will download something.

They probably used a theme (with a custom launcher). I think launcher themes change entire icon sets. Other than that, idk.

stock wallpaper vs custom wallpaper on GS4

So the stock wallpaper on the Galaxy S4 goes all the way to the notification panel at the top and makes it transparent which i love. I figured i would try and load a custom wallpaper and it would do the same thing, no go! This is kind of disappointing that the stock wallpapers have dimensions that sideloaded wallpapers dont. Has anyone figured out a way to cover that area so it looks as nice as the stock wallpapers.

This is well known, Samsung has come out and told us you only get the transparent notification bar on their wallpapers. Their reasoning, which makes sense, is that they don't know what kind of picture you would be using, and certain backgrounds would make the navigation bar text unreadable.
The only thing I can think of is if you use Nova Launcher, you can enable "transparent notification bar" somewhere in the menu, that might let you do that with all wallpapers.

You don't need the lock screen with Nova. Lock screen is a different APK. You can still change the two by going into your settings -> My device -> Display -> Wallpaper and then pick Lock Screen or Home Screen.
Here is my issue. I've gotten my luck screen to be transparent v by luck. I tested that luck changed wallpaper and lost transparency. Anyone else run into this

You could replace one of the stock wallpapers. I looked and they are packaged as drawables in the wall paper chooser apk (SecWallpaperChooser.apk). I may try to do it...it is essentially like making a theme.
BTW, the stock wallpapers are 1920x1920...I guess so they work in landscape?
