This is a Metamorph for a transparent lockscreen that was made by request for a friend. This is intended for a deodexed stock mytouch4G ROM (2.2/2.2.1). This will modify com.htc.resources.apk. Most likely this will crash your system when applied. If not, reboot to see changes. Ive been seeing an error when using metamorph to extract, it does not seem to find the theme file. All files extract and you will be able to apply by selecting "Pick existing theme".
*NOTE* This works when applied using the safari theme (thanks for the feedback). I'll look into modifying other themes... eventually. Requests will be considered.

Hmm I'm using your rom and it worked fine for me.. I extracted it on the computer, put it on my SD in the androidthemes folder, and then went to pick existing theme, apply all.
Has anyone been able to get rid of the lockscreen wallpaper? To show the homescreen? I've tried old methods, but they don't seem to work in sense 2.2 stock or modded roms for the n1

Same here. Running Ice but can't get it to stick. Good idea tho. I like it.
EDIT: Sent .zip to sdcard. Let Metamorph unzip. Still FC's my messengers while applying then nothing.
If you remove the htclockscreen.apk and .odex from your /system you'll get a transparent lockscreen... Albiet with the stock froyo lock but I prefer it anyway

So after trying this, the text on the lock screen doesn't line up correctly. All 3 lines of text, the date, the time & T-mobile all overlap. Is this supposed to be used with any of the lock screen themes or a specific one? Anything else need to be changed to get it to align correctly?

So this is just a transparent slider for the lockscreen?
I'm assuming theres no way to make a fully or semi-transparent wallpaper?
I know most icons are png's, which support transparency, but I'm not sure (and highly doubt) if a transparent png file would retain transparency after being set to be the wallpaper? If I had to guess I would think the file is converted in some way before it is actually applied...
I wonder if there is a way to bypass this and allow for transparencies in the wallpaper?
Though this works, it doesn't look so good since its transparent and the text overlays whatever is on the first screen. It would be nice if the lockscreen background could be honored by the stock froyo lock. Or at the very least, a solid color or black background.

Transparent images won't set correctly, from what I've read about other sense ROMs, you'd have to hexedit the file, changing the color to transparent... don't know if it would even work. There are lockscreen replacements, like lock bot, possibly some others. Wish there where better options... the ROM in general lacks the basics for most things I want to do... which is why I currently run the desire HD port by gr8gorilla. The ROM has been ported to a lot of phones, so there is quite a bit of mods and themes available.
I'm curious what features. Are you referring to stock? Does the desire port have working drivers for everything? I thought FFC (camera) was a problem as well as video playback. Iced is what I'm currently using and its rock solid and can overclock.

While we wait for that Galaxy Sense port... behold The TouchSense UI
This basically changes the icons to those of HTC Sense main icons, settings icons, and the whole framework... but the progress bar. the theme is based on the HTC Desire HD. By the way, this was only tested on that JK2 2.2 Froyo leak, the theme is not yet done, Im probably missing a couple of things I haven't noticed and I still need to work on Touchwiz. If I am really missing something let me know, please let me know.
Sorry for the delay, I was very busy during the holidays and had tons of homework..
Update log:
4G is gone, Wi-fi is back
I might have also fixed the problems with Metamorph

As of right now, I have only tested it on the JK2 version, it could be Eugene's version with odin or the flashable zip of the same. The H+ I found it sleeping somewhere inside the HTC Ace's System files.

my mistake, it's a metamorph, if for some reason metamorph doesn't unzip it, try unzipping it with Astro or any other unzipper you may have, then with Metamorph Pick existing theme, Find the xml, Apply all and you're all set
By the way, I forgot to say I replaced the wi-fi icon with the 4G icon.. I only did that to show it off to a friend of mine who owns an HTC Evo 4G (I couldn't resist ), I was wondering though, should I put the wi-fi back?
Does this have the sense live wallpaper?
And anychance you can change the.edge icon to H+ and the 3g to 4g?

I think you should put the wi-fi back as 4G might be confusing. Does this theme also give the black notification bar that you have with the H icons?
As an Evo user, I think this is funny because you can run Touchwiz on a Sense ROM. Sense is very hard to port over because it's not just an APK like Touchwiz is; it's an actual replacement of a ton of system files.
Still though, very convincing. Looks great! And nice use of Fancy Widget.

Are you sure you want that though, I mean.. there's no IN or OUT there is just signal strength, now that I think about it, it's not gonna look right unless I edit the 4G icons, which will take a while.. but I'll do it just for the hell of it, just not now

Made this for myself and thought I would share. Support will be minimal due to time limitations. Unless there is a major problem.
This has been used with CM6.1 on both a Vibrant and Nexus One.
Not responsible if you don't know what you are doing.
Included apk's are:
- Browser.apk
- Contacts.apk
- Phone.apk
- Settings.apk
- mms.apk
- framework-res.apk
All of these are fully themed using the gingerbread files graphics files.
XML edits were also done to make the menus black with white text.
I didn't include the gmail app since it is from the market now. If you want to theme the notification icon, use a morph that is posted in the theme section. Or use ninja morph.
Enjoy!
p.s. must change clock date and notification text colors to match in CyanogenMOD settings (UI tweaks)
Wow booted with no problem. Awesome work... can u boot this on a nexus too or did u modify it from the nexus, for the cm6 for vibrant... its really themed well.
It will work on the nexus as well. Confirmed by my co-worker.
Nice! Maybe I can use other cyanogen mod themes from the nexus forums
Do I load this using morph or CW?
Flash in clockwork recovery
Looks good. Just want to know,
in case I want to go back to the previous theme, what should I do?
Thanks for the work and help.

I just ripped open the framework-res.apk included in this theme and the green bar .png's are indeed there, so not sure what's causing them not to show up.
What weather widget is that? Can I find that somewhere around here?
ok so, there must be some major issues with the network in my area today. I normally get bars and today I haven't gotten any but my data is there, however, very spotty as well. Guess is they're fixing the network or something. The green bars should show up as they have on other 2.3 themes, as the .png's appear to be there in this theme as well. Thanks OP.
Wow thanks so much.

I read about potentially using a transparent png image to be able to see your screen before unlocking but after trying several .png files I came up with no luck. The phone either uses black background before your image or it just doesnt recognize the transparent. Any ideas?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1261860
If you want to do it yourself, here's how:
I use notepad++ for editing, but any editor will work. Use apkmanager to decompile / compile framework-res.apk.
Edit res/layout/keyguard_screen_tab_unlock.xml.
In line 2 replace android:background="@color/background_dark" with android:background="@drawable/default_wallpaper".
In line 5 replace android:background="#30000000" with android:background="@color/transparent".
In line 12 replace android:layout_marginBottom="80.0dip" to android:layout_marginBottom="0.0dip".
Edit res/layout/zzz_keyguard_screen_lockscreenwallpaper.xml.
In line 2 replace android:background="#ff000000" with android:background="@color/transparent".
In res/drawable-hdpi:
Replace default_wallpaper.jpg with default_wallpaper.png. Replace zzzzzzzz_default_lockscreenw.jpg with transparent zzzzzzzz_default_lockscreenw.png (can be any png size 480x800).
Thats it.

Thank you!
And this will allow for transport and non transparent (opaque?) backgrounds right?
No idea honestly, just came across that thread a few days ago and haven't gotten around to trying it.
Anybody actually try this yet??? sounds like a cool idea
I have transparent zzzzzzzz_default_lockscreenw.png
can I replace it over the original without decomp/recomp? I haven't done that yet, iffy about doing something wrong. (I've heard of people not recompiling right and unhappy results)

As far as I am aware, they are not avaliable for UCKK6. Additionally, Jkay himself states in his post not to ask about porting to anything other than what is listed. I’m not trying to be rude, just saying that is probably why you aren’t getting a reply. #3 on the third post

I have used v12 on Villian ROM and v13 on Check ROM (both hellraised) and they both worked great. I recently moved back to Unnamed and the Jkay stuff is the one thing I miss most.
I found this. It isn't jkay, but it might have what you want. I will try it out myself and get back to you.
*edit* Not exactly what your looking for. It has a transparent pull down and you can change the order and appearance of quick toggle items but no transparent lock screen. Still pretty neat mod though.
There is a mod out I'm going to try, the maker of it made one for 2.2.1 for me but before I was able to install it I ended up going back to 1.3.2 and now I'm going to try it myself.

You know what's funny is, I rooted my mom's brand-new T-Mobile SGS II using their odin instructions, then booted into CWM and flashed Superuser, and when I rebooted the phone back into Android, the lockscreen was transparent.
Anyway to change it??? like instead of it having that werid AT&T 4G logo can someone make a CMW flash file that would change it? or files to change? Cause I flashed that one Rogers rom and it has a standered "4G" data symbol there and it looks WAY nicer than that 4G stock logo on AT&T rom.
you can do it by replacing the image files in the systemui.apk and the framework-res.apk
Yea, But im not to talented in doing that and afraid i`ll brick. Only messed with it once to change the color of the notification bar on the Nitro HD
BUMP. Can someone please make or change it for me? I know how put it in. I just not good at editing. Thanks!
I have LOOKED and looked in the frame work. and TWframework. AT&T`s "4G' logo is not in there. I found the G,E,H+, and 3G orginal pictures but no 4G logo pic so I cant replace it
Still wanting this? I know its something simple. But i can't get it figured out

No its not modded its a rogers based Rom. And that 4G icon is att based. Even though the 4G icons are located in that Rom for some reason. It will require some changing somewhere.
