(GUIDE)(MOD)Changeable Lockscreen text like Galaxy4. - Galaxy Y GT-S5360 Themes and Apps

How to add the Lockscreen Text to any lockscreen.
As most know I have implemented this feature inside the Touchwiz Resurrection rom for galaxy ace i.
As seen below.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Basicly this mod was very easy to add .
What is inside the resources.zip ?
LifeCompanionText.apk ( App to change the text )
LifeCompanion smalis for the framework.jar
SpaceFont.ttf for the CoolJazz font from S3/4
Basicly what you would need to do is:
Download Resources Attachement.
Extract it
Decompile you’re framework.jar
Go to the extract smali folder from the resources.zip and copy the smali folder to the smali folder of you’re framework.jar.
Compile framework.jar
Now we are going to add it to the frameworks location/allocate the text.
Decompile framework-res.apk
Find a lockscreen layout to you’re likes.
I used “zzz_keyguard_screen_clockwidget.xml” but you would be able to put it inside : “keyguard_screen_tab_unlock.xml” for the normal sliding tab lockscreen and such.
Open the layout you wanted and simply add this line above the clock layout or where you want
Code:
<com.touchwizres.lifecompaniontext.LifeCompanionTextView android:textSize="40.0dip" android:textColor="#ffffffff" android:id="[COLOR="RoyalBlue"]@id/life_companion_tag[/COLOR]" android:layout_width="wrap_content" android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:shadowColor="#7f000000" android:shadowDx="1.0" android:shadowDy="1.0" android:shadowRadius="2.0" />
I placed this code just below
Code:
<view android:gravity="left" android:orientation="vertical" android:id="@id/clock_time_and_date" android:paddingLeft="7.0dip" android:paddingTop="2.0dip" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="wrap_content" class="com.android.internal.policy.impl.ClockWidget$TimeAndDate">
of the "zzz_keyguard_screen_clockwidget.xml"
Add this to the ids.xml
Code:
<item type="id" name="[COLOR="RoyalBlue"]life_companion_tag[/COLOR]">false</item>
Compile framework-res.apk
Decompile ur compiled framework-res.apk
Now we are going to fix the ID Values. From the smali .
Decompile ur compiled framework.jar
Open
Code:
com/touchwizres/lifecompaniontext/[COLOR="RoyalBlue"]LifeCompanionTextView.smali[/COLOR]
that’s inside the framework.jar
Find
Code:
const v3, 0x[COLOR="Red"]10202cc[/COLOR]
This is the “life_companion_tag” ID (
Code:
<public type="id" name="life_companion_tag" id="0x0[COLOR="Red"]10202cc[/COLOR]" />
) inside public.xml
We need to fix this to yours
Now when u have changed the code from 0x10202cc to something like 0x1020299 or something depends on ur framework-res.apk
U can compile the framework.jar
Now zip the files together and make sure these are set properly.
SpaceFont.ttf inside /system/fonts/**
LifeCompanionText.apk inside /system/apps/**
And then ofcourse you’re modified framework.jar and framework-res.apk inside /system/framework/**
Now you are done
Happy modding
On what roms can u apply this mod ?
Basicly it can be applied to ALL Roms atleast if u know what u are doing.

Import in Eclipse.

Export unsigned apk.
Sign apk.
Decompile apk.
Retrieve ur smali codes.
