I Noticed that many developers are including the new Rotary Lockscreen in the recent roms that have been released, and thought I would create a thread entirely devoted to Custom Lockscreen Mods for our device. I don't claim to be a developer or themer, but however noted that we have some of the best themers and developers in the Vibrant thread so thought I would start a thread for those who would like to share some themed Lockscreen Mods. I have extracted several settings apk's from several roms and noted that they do work or are compatible with different roms. This thread in no way seeks to minimize the hard work of those developers who have included Rotary Lockscreens in their roms, but only seeks to stir up the creative juices of others who may want to share some of their work. Thanks!! Credit goes to Whitehawx & Hoey2011 for making this possible on our devices. Heres hoping that they will continue to bring their creativity to this thread along with other themers and their themed lockscreen mods.
Thanks to Whitehawx for getting this working on our device and shout out to Hoey2011 for these Lockscreen themes and Brick'd, RobZarzecki and others who supported this. More to Come in different colors and flavors! Stay Tuned!!
Hot Screenies
1st waves of morphs compliments of Hoey 2011. Flash with Metamorph and should be all good. NOTE: The star wars mod may not work after you apply this but the other 5 lockscreens work without a hitch. This is the 1st wave of morphs and all glitches that are found will be worked out accordingly. Whatever theme you are using should not be affected as shown in screenies using Danny Doans Theme with Hoey2011 themed Lockscreen with Rotary. Enjoy and Be on the lookout for more soon!

Yo RobZ im going to post a couple of framework apks and possibly a couple of those setting apks that we discovered works on particular roms just to get it started a little im still contacting a few people to just make sure its ok. Thanks to brickd he okd to post his saturated grey rotary framework and going to check with others also. Its nice to be able to change out lockscreens according to personal pref if compatible. Imagine if someone could develop a lockscreen changer this would be the business!
Hello everyone! Hmmm where to begin. I have done a little poking around regarding adding additional shortcuts to the rotary. I for one would like to have it show missed calls/texts on the center piece and you swing one way or the other to shortcut to it.
Something another dev in the fascinate forums PM'd me about was using the rotary to answer/decline calls. That would be freakin awesome. I'm going to be investigating this as I think it might actually be easier to do than what I said above.
Jcc, I like your idea for an app that can change out colors/themes/ect on the lockscreens. I'm going to do some talking with Roman later to see if we can't work something out for this (he's the java/app expert ).
I do have some other lockscreens I'd like to port over, including the multilock from CM and the iFail...err... i mean iPhone slider lockscreen. No promises on anything though. Anywho, its time to vape!
Whitehawx, I am using Axura 2.3 and when I flashed it the rotary lockscreen didn't appear in my list. I flashed it again and themed it with Gen x red and it still didn't show up. I wanted the rotary look so bad that I found the one attached in the market. Its called GOTO LOCK. If you look at it, I can roll the arrow to the right and hover over sms (my handcent) and it will preview my messages and the same for phone calls and my gmail. It also shows the number of each if any are waiting. Allows me to customize background as well. On the box up top it allows me to silence ringer, vibrate or turn ringer on and a few more gadgets as well. I think if you could incorporate something like this into rotary it would take it to the next level!
BTW...any idea why the rotary lockscreen didn't show up with the rom?
Thanks.

Hmmm I am unsure why the mod would not work, but doesn't Axura 2.3 come with the rotary lockscreen already? Flashing my mod should work, but you would lose all of your theming, ect. Seems odd that it wouldn't work though.

I dont know. Strange. Right after I flashed and went to into settings, display and unlock screen, it only shows the 4 options. Rotary is not even there. I didnt want to lose the theming from my Gen x red theme so that's why I downloaded the one from the market.

Funny.....Lol. It's actually in the market. It's called GOTO LOCK. It's a buck 50 but well worth it. I only found it because the rotary that whawx created for the roms wouldn't show up when I flashed axura 2.3 and I really wanted a rotary unlockscreen.

Hey guys, I made a little mod of the rotary lockscreen for bionix V 1.2.1, based on the GingerBlue theme. Therefore, when you flash this zip, you will have a blue themed phone, only for what framework-res touches. There are no changes to tw-framework, so that apk is not included.
This is a clockwork flashable, and it clears your dalvik cache, so it takes ~3-4 minutes to reboot after flashing it. I was a bit worried because of how long I was having to wait after flashing, but then I realized I have 200+ apps, and that makes rebuilding the dalvik-cache a little time consuming. Screenshots included, here's the link to the mod:
http://www.4shared.com/file/ryMYzZYU/HoeyBWRotary.html
If there's enough interest in this sort of thing, I'll take whatever lockscreen ports there are to handle, and make them customizable for our Vibrants I'm a themer, not a coder heh heh
Edit: I suggest trying this with a black and blue theme, because that's what I designed this little inspiration after. the jog icons are black and transparent, not black and blue like the screenshots suggest, it's just the blue smoke from the wallpaper.
I added a space wallpaper to demo a little better the way it looks
EDIT #19390487: I will consider making these theme a Metamorph simply for the possibility of avoiding replacing the entire framework-res.apk . Metamorph may make it possible to avoid the time-consuming flash/dalvik-cache wipe process I am using now for the theme. Then again, everything has room for improvement, including this mod! Keep in mind, this is a *rough* draft of an idea, and the idea was made specifically for me. If you don't like it, then throw up some suggestions. I will give folks a run down in a separate thread from this, so you can have an idea of what I can change and the effects it will have. That way, this thread can stay open to new *actual* modifications, rather than just aesthetic ones. So basically, I am going to take what progress comes from here, and theme it to gooey goodness. I have a simplistic stylistic preference, but you all may not!
Where exactly are lockscreen-containing files located within the ROM?

Hoey dang that lockscreen is sweet!!thanks for joining the discussion. I'm going test this baby out. It looks Great. Please feel free to Share some of your Lockscreen mods. That's why I started the thread because I believe themers such as yourself as well as others could post the hotness!
@ Oxirane It's either the Framework_res.apk or The Setting.apk and using root explorer you can copy it in systems/framework directory and if you use the setting.apk you can copy it in Systems/Apps folder. It's funny though because I've discovered that on some roms the framework_res.apk file changes the lockscreen, and on others all you have to do is push Settings apk to Systems/Apps. Maybe someone could expound on it for us. Make sure before you push any file with rootexplorer on your phone. SAVE your original files so that if something goes haywire you can just recopy those files as it will give you back your original look before the push. You could also just flash a rom with it already on it also. Hope this makes sense! Chime back if it works for you.
Update: Unable to download from dropbox its giving a error message. Could you post the Mod here in the thread. Thanks.

UPDATE 11/19/2010 4:00pm
DOWNLOADS INDEFINITELY REMOVED, taking a break from XDA, and don't want to return to a thread of nothing but bug reports, whining, and more un-credited use of my work.
And lastly, I never used to care about people using my work if they gave me credit, but I've found a lot of people re-packaging my battery icons without any mention of credit, or link to my original threads, and its just really annoying, takes barely a few seconds to add a "credit/thanks to xxxx" note or link somewhere in your posts. So from henceforth if you want to use my mods/theme in your own rom, mod, etc. you MUST:
1) ask my permission to do so.
2) you must link back to my thread and provide credit to me in your post
3) your mod/theme/etc. must be for non-commercial purposes
4) you must also share your mod/theme back to the community
Nice. Thanks.
I was gonna try and mod it myself for accurate battery and all but then thought nah Jocelyn will post something in the next few days and her stuff always rocks.
You gonna add in the bluetooth and power menu mods?
Could you do a black mod? This woud be awesome. Thanks!
Thank you very much for this! I LOVE it! The blue really goes nice with my already blue wallpaper and blue glove. The animations are freaking awesome as well!

Hi,
On JK2 the bluetooth toggle seems fixed already, at least for me, when i click it, it toggles on and starts scanning for devices in a popup automatically, so there really isn't a need for that.
And once untermensch ports his power-menu mod and the epic/puzzle lockscreen mod to JK2, I'll add them both.
I know he's working on porting some of his mods to froyo already, and I might look through the power menu to see if I can do it without waiting for him to port it officially, but the lockscreen mod is definitely over my head until he releases froyo specific mod/source.
Cheers everyone, =)
removed I figured it out
awesome work as always,
flashing NAO!
Perfect! Really like the color changes and the window shade look, plus the battery icon. Animations are ok.... Wasn't there a way to speed up animations system wide?

Updated the OP with a couple options to switch to the AOSP lockscreen instead of the samsung glass-lock.

Hi,
You can speed up animations using SpareParts.apk
I don't honestly remember where I got the apk I'm using now, but you might be able to find it on the market, or likely a CM5.0.8 or CM6 build for the nexus one.
Cheers, =)

Hey Jocelyn -
Actually, the power menu mod is already working in Obsidian V2. All you should need is some components from their framework-res.apk, the framework.jar, and the android.policy.jar, and it will work on the ROM you are using. I have it working on mine just fine (same ROM as you). At the very least, if you get stuck trying to do it yourself, using these files as a reference might help.
Good luck.
can i install this MOD on AOSPish 1.1 ? (JK2, as i know)
just flashed this and got the animations and the color changes but no AOSP can be found. I flashed the latest jk2_matte_with aosp lockscreen. Tried turning puzzle on and off in display but still only the glass lock screen is showing.
tnx Jocelyn

Awesome! Thanks so much for your awesome work, s0niqu3! This what what I had been missing from the JK2 rom!
In Eugene's Macnut R10 build, the baseband is listed as JK2 and I know he ported some of the unofficial leak over to that build, I'm wondering if this is compatible? Has anybody tried? Or what else do I need to look for to check compatibility before I try it. I can restore, thats never a concern, but would rather avoid fc cutting if I can.
Edited: no, no it does not, but i gave it the old college try. hopefully eugene's next build will be more jk2 and compatible, cause i dig s0niqu3's battery mods.

Hi,
Sorry, totally my fault, forgot that most people don't have JK2 deodexed, lol.
Anyway, updating the OP now with a version that should work on people with stock, odexed JK2, please let me know if it works.
Cheers, =)
Updated the OP to atone for my moment of idiocy forgetting that most people don't have JK2 deodexed.
In other words, zip files for the AOSP lockscreen have been re-uploaded with versions that should work for people on stock, odexed JK2.
Sorry, and cheers everyone, =)
First let me say that I am not a dev nor can I properly edit .9.png files yet. These are just 'Tweaks' I made to the Stock Samsung MMS by switching png files. A few are quite nice while others,... well, I included them because someone just might like them. Right now these are installable manually which is faster than flashing. I do hope to have them in flashable form soon, however.
The installation instructions are step by step so any noobs can install with no problems. Use the paid version of Root Explorer. First delete or move you current Mms.apk to your external SD card (in case you want to reinstall it later). Then place the new Mms.apk in System/app, longpress on the file and choose 'Permissions', uncheck the boxes to match rw-r--r--. If the new app doesn't show up right away, reboot.
I have no probems sending Sms or Mms and get all my audio notifications although I know this is not the case with everyone. I don't have all the answers, so if you can help with any information on why certain people can't send Sms or Mms, please share it. And if you want to just say 'Thanks' to anyone, please use the 'Thanks' button
Thanks for their work go to Team Whiskey, MikeyMike01, KCB877, TonicAcid, and the devs of BlackFroyo!
I've attached thumbnails for you to see what you are getting! I've covered up my contact picture with various symbols (arrow, hat, etc), so these all include the contact picture.

went through various themes and roms and patched a bunch together. I didn't edit any pngs as I stated before, I used different bubbles, icons, notification icons etc and put them all into one. I also edited the contact pictures out using ninja morph to get rid of the gradient and blank contact pic so it's black, I don't use contact pictures at all.
Also, if you want a dark icon look at the one I used for Loki 2.0, it's a dark launcher icon, still the smiley launcher like the green and blue, just dark. Grab the blue launcher I have too, it's not the bright one that was floating around, its the normal blue, matches well with the themes or the other blue icons like navi.

Your welcome, duce! That is a good question and I don't know the answer because it depends upon the theme you are using I think. Right now I'm using clean tangerine, so my notification icon is orange. I'll guess that the default icon is blue, knowing Samsung, lol!

toxic smoke is a 2.2 captivate rom, completely different and not compatible

Just to be more exact, the reason a captivate rom would not work with this is because of AT&T. They have some message center that their particular mms app calls. Everything will work fine until you try to send something, then it will FC. I know this because the original mms that I made was the Gingerbread one made by MikeyMike from the Captivate threads. It was a phenomenal app with more funtionality and twice the size (in bytes) as any other mms.apk I'd seen.
Apk's can be really strange. The Galaxy Tab email.apk will work in either 2.2 or 2.2.1. So will the TouchwizGTG launcher from the Tab as well as many other .apk's. Then you come across some that don't work like the OceanWaves live Wallpaper. Just didn't want you to automatically assume .apk's from other Roms would automatically not work. You must test them yourself.

Let me save you the trouble. This is for 2.2 roms not 2.2.1. I believe that jellette posted a blurry fix for 2.2.1 in the themes just make sure its the i9000 and not the 4g vibrant version

I'm still investigating what works with what. It would be easier if I would flash something else and test it myself, but I'm not willing yet. My health hasn't been that great lately. I can manage to edit simple .9.png's though, so that might goad me into redoing everything.
Would this work on gingerbread?
Omg! <3 epic!!

Project has been terminated. Sorry to anyone who I have left waiting. I have too many personal things going on to be able to work on this. If someone wants to pickup where I left off, feel free, just credit me.
I have been working on this for a while now, and it is not quite finished (still more framework and twframework edits to make, along with some other system apps). I only really get to work on this at work, and even then it's not much, so it has been slow going, and updates may be slow.
I though I would reach out to the public at large for some feedback.
This has been mostly edits to the base Trigger files (many edits) and some images and .9s from NeonGT that I liked, along with a couple icons I found searching on Google. Eventually I plan to replace many images with some of my own to better fit my style.
I appreciate any comments you may have to help improve my theme. I've done some small Metamorphs before, but this is my first time attempting a full theme.
v1.0
Updated some framework images with some green versions from Trigger 2.9.4
- Modified the yellow on the battery percentages (40-60%) so it should hopefully be easier to see.
Updated Launcher some more
Added in Akbar font (you will need to set through Flip Font in Settings)
Starting to modify Dialer
Some other minor stuff I can't remember
v0.3 Beta
More framework edits - framework is done except for a couple of .9s I will eventually get to
twframework updates
Massive edits to Email.apk
v0.2 Beta
Minor framework edits
Slightly new spinner/loading icons - Tell me what you think of them
v0.1 Beta
Many, many framework edits
Gmail starting to be themed
Email app starting to be themed
Launcher edits
Settings edits
Coming soon:
Finishing framework/twframework/Gmail/Email
Dialer amd MMS theme
Custom made icons
Bringing all the green colors closer together on the palette for a more consistent look

I can add it in if people want. It's one of many flip fonts I made a while back.
Ah I love this theme. Really wanted a different color than blue. Can't wait to see what your going to do with it!
OP updated. Any changes, suggestions, insults about the theme?
Great. Will update.
Not sure if its just me or just nitpicking, but when my battery was low yesterday it seemed like the green went away or like really "dims" on the battery icon.
Maybe its just me though.
Great theme regardless!
EDIT: Link seems to be down :/

I will fix the link in a couple hours. On the road for work and not near my pc.
As for the battery, the glow around the icon should go green, yellow, red as the battery drains. The yellow is hard to see. Maybe that's what you are seeing? I have plans to fix that soon.

Alright no problem.
Ahhhh ok. Yeah I just took a close look at it and its yellow. My mistake. But yeah very hard to notice.
This looks really nice! Love green, about to flash Trigger again and going to give this theme a go!
Anybody can confirm working on bionix, also how about a green swype? (don't know if it's in there but I will supply file if wanted, it wasn't my creation tho

This is amazing! I'm loving it, if I had anything to suggest, I think it would be awesome if you can change the pull-down menu dividers between the notifications to green along with the font to show up green. I think it would look really nice.

I didn't have any plans to theme Swype as I don't use it (I actually remove it from a rom zip before flashing so I don't have to deal with it). Check out this thread as there are some nice Swype metamorphs in there. Also, I'm sure there are more threads for Swype themes out there.
There is actually a post here for a bunch of blackout swype themes that were made by creator. There is a link to them on the MTM Gingerbread post.

Sweet! Can't wait to try it out!
Stock Contacts and Phone Themed Transparent. Im not a big fan of transparent apps, but I know some people are. This can also be a base for other themes.
Dialer background before placing a call can be themed as described here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1215898
The only other image I really changed was the blue button when speaker is on, because I had to.
In call dial background, I think transparency has to be set using .xml, I tried replacing with transparent image and just turned black. Could possibly be done later, will have to do some digging. You can change the image to whatever you wish by following link above. I personally don't think a transparent incall background would be real cool, it would probably confuse me a bit while im looking for my key to press.
theres a black bar in scolling contacts list, pretty sure this in colors.xml, can change if needed.
Anyways ,there it is, enjoy. tested on 160 & 210dpi
As usual keys are off the screen in high res. ( may be able to do .xml edits to control this a bit. But a have one more theme planned first.
reserved
for more screenies, updates etc.
Id' love to hear feedback guys, lets me know how Im doing. Even screenshots are cool! thanks
congratulations you did it, chrisrotolo you're great
yeah, no prob. I'd like to see what themes we can come up with. Im working on one now
cheers!
thanks chrisrotolo,
very nice on streakdroid 1.9.1 with RedStreak 0.4 theme.
Installed it today ! nice job.
Just one thing : is it possible to have white numbers on the caller ? quite all my walls are dark so it's difficult to make a call...

streak 7 running DJsteves HS R6, last ROM prior to official Dell release. Love it OMG! really nice.. Only thing I dont like about this is gamelofts non support for s7. battery can go quick. Happy with it, no theming planned at the moment, but Im sure I will later. Always here to help though. Hopefully 5 will be getting ICS one way or another..
Hey everyone, it's time for some custom lockscreens!
I will not be doing any requests for a device with a different screen resolution
What can be modded?
Time/date
Operator text
Pull to unlock text
Lockring & Shortcuts
Everything you see
What can be done to these?
Moved around anywhere on the screen
Shrunk/Enlarged
Show/Hide
The possibilities are endless.
*The only problems will be that if you want your shortcuts moved around, they might not drag to the lock ring correctly thus making them unusable. Also, the buttons to answer calls may be a little tricky because I cant always test that right away.* Tell me what you want, and I will tell you if they work.
These mods should work on ANY Sense 4.x ROM based on ICS, but, please upload your Idlescreen_Base.apk to ensure that this will not break anything. It saves headaches.
So just post your Idlescreen_Base.apk and tell me what you want done. I will post them all in the second post. Don't worry if I don't get to your request immediately, it will be done. Sometimes college comes first
Attached are a few examples of what I've done/can be done.
This post is where I will link and keep track of every request/mod I do.
ICS Mods:
Here's a link to one I've already done: Center Lock Mod
Center Lock Mod for Viper4g: Here
Revert to stock: Here
Center Lock with left clock and music above icon text: Here
Stock ring with icon text only and right side clock/date: Here
Center Lock with no icons, just text: Here
Stock w/ lowered icons and shrunk clock Here
Right Ring and Icons a.k.a. Badass! Here
Right ring, large left clock and no icons: Here
Left ring, stock time/date etc, no icons: Here
Stock w/ no operator or shortcut label text: Here

Yesterday I figured out how to *add* a scale factor for the all apps png in rosie (so in theory similar logic could apply to lockscreen thigns), thanks to Dunc001 for the question and bebida for the idea
Nice thread buddy!
Hmm interesting....where is this base apk and could you do the text shortcuts at bottom....with the time at the top like normal with my PowerAmp widget in the middle?
Ah never mind I just flashed a 3.6 sense Rom now

Sure I uploaded a stock revert zip based off of the newest RUU in the second post.
Thanks for posting this Gumby63! I saw you guys talking about this a little while ago. Screenshots here show just how versatile and interesting this mod can be.
I attempted to see what it would take to do something more "Sense 1/2ish" with the sliding down of the bar to unlock just for fun. It looks entirely doable because, by essentially enlarging the lockring, it flows off of the screen, giving that bar-type effect.
Plus, if the ring is long enough on the left and right sides, the ring looks way more bar-like. No matter where you drag, the ring is too "ovally" to look like it's being moved from side to side.
The problems I found were expanding the invisible dragging area so that it covers the entire ring, the fact that the bar drags down, not up, and that when scaled up, of course the ring looks bad.
--
I'm excited to see what you come up with. One thing that has me curious is, could the setups be done in several APK files for ease of selection? The stocks, productivity, weather, etc. lockscreens are set up as different APKs.
Way awesome.

Hmm that's actually a really cool idea. So I'm trying to understand the problem you ran into. Do you mean that touching a certain part of the ring doesn't allow you to drag it? I think that's what you mean. I'm sure there's a property somewhere that controls this, I'll look around for it.
I know that you can make it so that you can drag the ring down to unlock, I did that for the mod in post 2.
Would you mind posting the apk?
And to answer your other question, yes I believe that is possible but I'm not sure as I've never tried.
My guess would be that you need to make any edits to the lockring/shortcuts etc in Idlescreen_base first, then make the edits to weather/productivity etc to make them fit according to the edits made in idle base.
Thanks for the input

Thanks. Yeah. I believe that I'm missing a step with the lockscreencontainer.
I've attached it. It's probably best if you turn lockscreen shortcuts off as I just quickly through that together. Also, imagine that you're pulling down the ring rather than pulling it up. I also went ahead and moved the carrier caption and date down there as well. It's static, so it doesn't work quite like it did, but I was just playing around anyways.
Thanks!

Okay so I messed around with it a bit, and here's the outcome.
You can drag down to unlock, and I hid the unlock animation so it actually functions like the Sense 1 lockscreen would have. I moved the call buttons up (but haven't tested them yet) so in theory those should work, but everything else like music/notifcations etc will still overlap.
Pretty neat idea. Looks strange, but neat!
Apk is attached for anyone who wants to play with it.

I have to admit, for something that wasn't designed to do that, it's really very good. You're right. It's strange, but hey, It's making me feel strangely nostalgic at the moment. Thank you!
I hope to see a few more mini-guides on messing with the elements (proportions correct) a little more. Of course, I should probably read the entire M10 editing thread.
Thanks again.
