I'm not sure about ICS style lock screen. But you could get JB style lock screen by installing this app, Holo Locker

Thanks for the push to apps guys, but I was hoping more for a bit of script or so and directions to how to stick it in my system file or something to make this a go.
I can decompile a boot.img if need be, but still looking for a dev to give a hand.

It's not that simple since framework is different in builds and not everything can be ported from one to next due to dependencies there are plenty of ICS looking lock screens in Play store.

you can make a new firmware including the apk of the locker app as a system app.... so the locker is a default app!!!
using app
try go locker and get ics theme for it
Me too!
Me too, I am cooking a ROM and I want a Jelly Bean lockscreen. I am looking for a staus bar mod too because UOT Kitchen has been updating for centuries

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.

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.

This is tested on FreeX10 Beta 4. Make a backup if you want to test on another ROM. Please post if it works and what ROM you are on.
I stumbled upon this way to have a custom lockscreen background in the N1 forums and wanted to port it over to the X10... So I PMed rori~ (the original developer from the N1 thread) and asked him to help me port this to the X10... but he ended up doing the porting completely.
THIS .ZIP IS FOR METAMORPH - NOT RECOVERY
This morph allows for a separate wallpaper to be used on the lockscreen (like miui).
This morph replaces the original default_wallpaper.jpg in the framework-res.apk and mods the keyguard_screen_tab_unlock.xml in the framework-res.apk to use the default_wallpaper.jpg.
INSTRUCTIONS:
1. Make a nandroid backup because this alters the framework-res.apk.
1b. Make sure you have a backup of your wallpaper because this will most likely change it, so you will have to reapply your original wallpaper.
2. Install metamorph if you haven't already.
3. Create a folder on the root of the sd card called AndroidThemes.
4. Place CustomLockscreenX10_Morph.zip in this folder.
5. In metamorph click "Unzip/Extract New Theme" pick this .zip.
Now in the AndroidThemes folder is a folder called CustomLockscreenX10_Morph. In there use a file explorer to navigate to framework-res/res/drawable-hdpi and drawable-hdpi-v4. Replace the image in those folders with any .jpg with a resolution of 480x854 of your choice. (Some themes use the hdpi-v4 layout so I included that too)
6. Go back to metamorph and click "Apply All".
The phone may reboot, this is fine.
If the lockscreen wallpaper is not the file you chose reboot into recovery and clear cache and dalvik cache (first reboot after this will take a long time while the cache is rebuilt).
IF YOU WISH TO THANK ANYBODY PLEASE THANK rori~ IN THIS THREAD!
rori~ made this possible, I just made the metamorph .zip work with our phone.
*screenshot of lockscreen is the current default_wallpaper.jpg in this .zip*
*second screenshot is just to show the home screen wallpaper is different*

Some people would like to have this option.
It is an option available in Miui and some HTC phones, but I personally don't like Miui much, and some others don't but may like this MOD.
It's just to give people an extra option in customization.
Is it possible to customize the lockscreen in which way?

Yeah, I know about widget locker, I wanted this option without using an app, I wanted it integrated into the OS.
Thanks for the info though.
hmm, I've already been doing this for a couple weeks now through Theme manager, but it may be a custom option because I am running MiUI 2.3? Cool, though, this works for all other ROMs?

As far as I know Miui has this option, but most Android ROM's don't.
It should work with any 2.2 ROM based off of z's Beta 4 (as long as the framework isn't too different).
It would probably work with most 2.2 X10 ROMs.
cool, thanks been testing/running Miui for alittle while now so I kinda forgot if it was an option for other Roms. Well Im glad this is now possible, as I do like changing my lockscreen image! Thanks
Not working with MetaMorph, unfortunately .
However I just decomplied the framework-res.apk and did it manually . Kudos to you for the xml file .

The Criskelo ROM has the AOSP Lockscreen in it and it was created by JKAY (Much love to him/her for this). It is enabled via app in the ROM.
JKAY also has a post in the Themes and Apps section regarding this lockscreen for other ROMS as well. Just search the Development and the Themes areas for these and you will find them.
Press THANKS if I have helped...
Just flash Criskelo or CyanogenMod ROM. They are the best i9100 ROM's.
Widget Locker is a peace of crap! It has so many bugs and glitches on i9100. It is also non-free and too expensive.
you can also install revolution rom from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1171523 and use Kitchen app to install JKay's ASOP lock screen
Sometimes you just can't get what you want...
Unfortunately the lockscreen on android is pretty well integrated with the rom you're running. Either you replace it with something like WidgetLocker, which basically disables the stock lockscreen, and replaces it with its own. Or you need to install a rom with the stock android lockscreen built in.
It's either that, or find the exact rom you're using, and get a dev to some how patch in the stock lockscreen to that rom. You'd still then need to root your phone to apply the patch. It's a lot of work just to add a lockscreen to a crappy stock rom though.

What you say is not true. Before I had the JVQ ROM I had the JVH ROM without anny lockscreen then only the stock one. I found the lockscreen on XDA for flashing without a ROM, theme, or anything els so only the new loxkscreen.
So it is possible to do this you say not but it is possible.
Unfortunately the lockscreen from JVH don't work on the JVQ otherwise I had flash that one.

As he said, just install what you want, no need to port anything, all working roms here are stock based.

In your /system/app folder for all stock roms there is the ROSIE.apk(that is the launcher), and a ton of APKS with the word widget in them.. they are for the stock launcher. Put them in the /system/app folder on your senseless rom and they are back. Mind you, the widgets only work with rosie. As for the camera, if they just replaced it with the one from the sensation or one-x camera.apk you can go into the themes and apps section and find one titled HQ camera, flash it and it will put the stock one back(and it will add HQ mod for much higher picture quality).
You need to reboot after adding files back to the /system/app folder by the way.
alirght i will give it a try now! thank you! what i did before is unzip the rom, transfer the apks and zip it back and flash...gave me operation aborted! it was only the phone apk and camera, thats basically what i want the most.

If you unzipped it then you'll need to sign the zip file or simply replace the files using winrar or some other client without unzipping the file.

What this guy said, it's a framework issue, the framework files have been highly modified, most likely he resigned all the system apps after modifying them, you can decompile and recompile the phone apk, resigning it to see if that solves it. Most likely having to resign all system apps.
