[Q] cyanogenmod lockscreen change - XPERIA X10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

just installed this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=945264
and i really like it, but the only thing i dont like is the status bar and the lockscreen, i'd much rather have it look like froyo or galaxy s, anyway to change that?

In cyanogenmod settings you can choose between 2 lockscreen.. default froyo and rotary.

what about notification bar?...i want the froyo one where it's white and i dont care for the see through background when you pull it down
ps thanks for the info

I think that in CM you can't have a white status bar, or if there is a theme available (but I think not)

i also only have sliding tab and rotary where can i get froyo one
ps i have x10a on att

so pretty much i like the look of freex10 but cyanogen is wayyyyy faster

EDIT: hope it works.

also is there a different music player or a modded one that looks a little nicer, and how do i change the loading screen for free x10, right after sony erricson logo when booting up and before it goes into android. right now i just have a picture of the words free x10 with a picture of the logo, but i have seen some moving ones that look a little nicer

Widget locker is also good. another one is "lock bot"(or something like that), in which u have iphone style, eclair stlye, froyo style, hero style, xperia x10 style and galaxy s style lockscreens. although not much customizable as widget locker but still not bad. u can download full version from applanet.
lock screen
in my opinion lockbot pro is better than widgetlocker, but if you want to put widgets on lockscreen you have to use widgetlocker.
you can also try GOTO lockscreen
I try botlocker pro but i am not impresed...

Launcher Pro

Anyone know if Launcher Pro will look good at a higher resolution like the Atrix has? I tried LP on my Galaxy Tab and it did not look so good due to the high resolution.

I looks great. I changed it to 5 rows, instead of 4 stock, and you can fit more on each screen than a captivate. It's crazy fast too, and the transitions look great.
i just paid for the PRO version because i really liked the free version. Where do you go in and change how many rows and such? There isnt a Launcher Pro app in the menu.

You can change most launcher settings by pusing the menu button the homescreen and choosing "preferences" or something similar. There is also a shortcut there to the Android Settings menu, so don't be surprised if you click that one first.

I notice some of this as well. Nothing that gets me worked up, as this probably hasnt been optimized for dual core phones, but i definitely notice some lag.

Mine is so fast. I truly feel the unleashed speed of the tegra now.
Mine's working fine. Only problem is that on the "People" widget, contact icons dont show up. Well, only the contacts with a gmail pic show, but the ones synced with Facebook dont. Anyone else care to confirm this?
Thanks

I have had this happen on other phones. I just left the Samsung Epic 4g to get the Atrix and my Epic did the same thing. I waited a few hours (next day) and updated the "people" widget and they all appeared. Let me know if this helps.
Got a thread going in General about reboots. Launcher Pro may (or may not) be the cause.
For anyone installing, post back if the phone reboots at some point (within 24 hours) after installing Launcher Pro.

My launcher pro looks great. I configured 6 columns and 5 rows. I'll post a screenshot later. Love this phone.

Same here, and using Folder Org for grouping apps together, along with the "show apps" as the icon, looks very slick and excellent details on the tiny icons.
Been running the paid launcher pro for more than 24 hours now and customized it to death. Im currently running it with beautiful widgets and live wallpaper, no problems encountered
Its not causing reboots for me, but it is laggy.
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
Had LP Paid edition for 24 hours now and also on BW and there has not been anything bad about it so far. I dont feel the laggy as much more like its smooth now. The one thing I dont like about all this is the icons are so much smaller and so is the text for some widgets since resolution is so high.
I tried to put the option for stretch icon to fit in column and width but that didn't really do anything.
Other than that LP on this is pretty nice..... so far so good.

i cannot get the pictures to sync.
Anyone with the Calibri font think they can whip up some quick dock icons for the Atrix?
Preferably like the ones from Dreamlyfe Mini set?
Bare in mind I'm using ADW, but I have noticed that Live Wallpapers make my phone feel like a brick. The second I put a static one in there my phone went into rocket mode.
Anyone having a problem setting the default Launcher? I installed Launcher Pro and it becomes the default, but I can't go in and change it back to Blur as the default with uninstalling it. HomeSwitcher or HomeSmack are not working.

Customize phone

Hey guys just wondering how I can really speed up my phone, rom or kernal? Or both? I just downloaded the evil fascination theme and I'm trying to do some further customization! Like the phone in that vid! It's crazy fast and I was just wondering what I should download and how to apply it while keeping the evil theme. Also when he switches screens in the vid, it flips it doesnt just slide left and right. How would one do that? The launcher, rom or theme? I guess I cant post the vid, but its on youtube and its "My awesome samsung fascinate!!!!"

The speed you're describing most likely has to do with the Rom and kernel. The transitions sound like a launcher(such as Launcher Pro).
Bow chika wah wah
Yea I hear its the kernal. What's one of the quickest kernals there are? I know it varies from phone to phone but whats been stable yet quick. Also how do I install a kernal over my theme?

I'm currently using Nemesis' OTB 1.3 kernel for TouchWiz roms. That one makes my phone really quick and smooth. Since kernels don't affect your theme, you just flash it in ClockWorkMod Recovery.
ok ill try it and see if i can do it. thanks for the help. Ill post again if i need anything.

No prob. Check out the Development forum for our Fascinate. A lot of good info there.

Also, otb works only with voltage control.
Another question. Aside from kernals making my phone quicker. What customizations can I do to make the phone look like no other fascinate. I already have launcher pro and its rooted and beautiful widgets, but is there anything else I can do. I see people with clocks on there homescreens that are written out, like threesixteen. How do you get that? And other customizations?
There are a ton of different widgets to change the look of your phone. To have the time written out, try clockr.
Also, the Market site lets you search for widgets only.
Sorry I can't put direct links, but I don't have enough posts yet.
I did clockr! It works thankyou! What else can i dwnld from the market to customize it!?
Just look in the "show me your screen" thread and see what widgets they are running. Or you could google "android custom screen" or something like that.
Ok thanks for the help guys. Appreciate it!
Another clock you might want to have a look at is the Make Your Clock Pro (Beta) App. Looks really cool, like you can fully customize the clock layout to your liking. I have not tried it - just stumbled on it today... But it sounds like something you might be after.
The flip transitions - or any of the 7 that are included in LP+ are accessed via:
Menu Soft Key> Preferences> Homescreen Settings> Transition Effect. In there are the 7 choices. My personal fav is Flip, but there ought ot be somethign there to suit your taste.
Enjoy - this is the fun part

[MOD] Transparent Home Dock for Arc [ Update - 2.0.A.0.20 ]
It works nice on my stock non-rooted arc.
Problem is the widget overview is now pointless eye-candy. The widgets float around one over another and are harder to read and tap than last version. I don't see a way to turn it off even.
not working
Ok, I think that I have made something wrong because I can not see any difference.
I can see the option to remove instaled aps but can not see the overview and widgets floating?!
I have read somewhere that I have to remove everything from the desktop on my phone, tried that too but nothing.
By the way, non rooted Arc.
Thanks
the Theme setting is useless now, huh?
Hello everybody. Is it possible to get it with 7 homesreens ?
too bad i'm happy enough with go launcher ex...
and yes, unless they implement home screen extension, i can live without timescape and mediaplayer widget
can some repost the apk the link is dead thx

You could try the experia arc launcher, follow the instruction carefully, it's a great launcher, quick and you can have multiple widgets and fully customizable homescreens!! Not sure about the size of the icons in the drawe3r, they seem to be the same size as the ones you get in most launchers. Give it a try!!

OOOh, yeah!! I forgot, I don;t know exactly where it is in the x10mini forum, but somebody modded one of the arc launchers to support landscape!!! You'll have to do some digging, but it's there and the post includes screens. Im not sure it was on the first page though

Awesome, thank you.
Also, have you had a problem with your phone not remebering the sort by alphabeticaly?
I set it to the other options and it will use them options until i change it.
But when i do it by "Alphabetical" it automatically changes back after i've launched something.
I havent had that problem yet, alhough the problem I did have was that the launcher would forget everything whenever I restarted the phone!!
I realised I had been installing the app instead of moving it to the correct folder with root explorer and setting the permissions correctly.
just follow the steps they set properly (they are on the first post I think) and you will have no problem.
i personally think the "xperia active" launcher is better than the Arc launcher. u can have 16 shortcuts in the 4 corners of the Homescreen. multiple widgets, and a very nice iteration from the ARC launcher, that is, when u pinch to get the "widgets overview" mode, the widgets are not "stable" but are "floating" in the screen. VERY nice tweak. try the active launcher.
In my experience, the xperia active launcher seems to position widgets a little to the right in landscape mode (makes their right ends go off the screen.)
