Looking for a nice LOCK SCREEN - Android Themes

I have rooted my phone and am using CyanogenMod 4.2.14.1
I was wondering if there are any interesting lock screens I could use. My criteria:
1. NOT the ones in the marketplace, have tried them out and don't really like any of them
2. FREE - this is a minor request and definitely not something I want to pay for (heck I've already paid $400 for the phone!!)
3. relatively easy to install. I managed to root my phone with SPL 1.76.007 which took a looong time and was difficult so I know my way around it. BUT, I am not willing to take any risks. I don't mind flashing something, but, that's probably the extent to which I want to take risks.
The screen itself:
1. Simple but with useful features, such as music changing ability, battery status, etc.
2. Some sort of password/lock code (not essential)
3. Background image
Thanks!

then stericson's lockscreen seems to be the one for you.

might have to dig around a bit to find the latest version

cmupdater
Have you looked the cmupdater themes? I am using the grey-white lockscreen and it is clean,sleek, and have gotten a lot of people wanting me to root their phones now....

I actually posted at the end of that because I wasn't sure what to do with the file I downloaded (for Cyanogen 4.2.14.1).
Can you help with that?

How do I get the themes? I'm actually using this in the themes directory (of cmupdater): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=592377 to update my kernel on my phone whenever CyanogenMod is updated.
So, where can I get themes from and which one would you recommend.

boot into recovery and flash it on top of your rom

Thanks it worked.
Are there any other options? This one isn't bad but it seems a bit useless to me. Bit odd that you have to press a button to see the battery when it's right there on top!

Nope that's pretty much it. I know hero and eclair roms have a different lockscreen but they don't work for 1.6 roms. Only other option is to flash a hero/eclair rom or get one from the market. If you want one like the iPhone then get lock 2.0. Its not half bad.
I like having the battery button on the lockscreen. The battery on top gives some indication as to howmuch battery you have left but I like knowing exactly how much life is left in my baby lol

Thanks for the response.
Not unhappy with this one per se, but, it just doesn't do it for me.
Lock 2.0 is actually pretty good but I'm in Singapore and I don't have access to the paid market (which in the long run is a good thing!) and the free version has too many restrictions. I can't even add a background.
My main thing is I want a nice clock and background and battery display. This Stericson one does all that but it just feels a bit "meh" to me. Not sure why, not blown away ...Guess I'll survive!
If anyone knows of anything (theme or lock screen) to spice things up do let me know!

email me [email protected]

Does anybody know of a theme or something to make the default lockscreen
transparent??

use lockbot on the market, its pretty good. theres a free version and its still good

APP drawer orginizer?

My girl and i both have G1s. Her phone uses DXtop and is not rooted. Her DXtop has the ability to orginize APPs in her APP drawer. I have been looking everywhere and cant find anything that alows my rooted G1 to do the same. Is there anything out there that can manage APPs in the drawer on a rooted G1 running cyan 4.0.4?

Advanced launcher is a home replacement. I'm interested in a theme or application that is not running over my original home but allows the APP drawer to be customized. Besides, it also states that it is not usable with Cyan 4.0.4. Any other ideas?

its not a home replacement like dxtop....it actually replaces the one you have
did you even read the op properly?
I'm confused by myself. So here's the description: u17 ist still the old version for cupcake releases. There is a standalone and a replacement. Both are for cupcake based builds.
Then there ist v2.0.1. It's the new version. It's for donut based builds. And it's currently only the replacement version, standalone will come.
So don't use v2.0.1 on cupcake based builds (like cyanogen's 4.0.4 stable) and don't use u17 or u17_replacement on donut based builds (like the cyanogen experimental branch).

i.e........ u17 is compatible with 4.0.4 but not donut
read the op and use the replacement version instructions to fix up your build

i know what you mean xD
yesterday i spent 3 hours debugging another teams program. they had 6000 SLIC and it crashed on run time. I figured what the hell, im up for a challenge. well the whole program crashed because of one letter
fliers instead of flier
both flier and fliers were valid so it compiled fine but crashed when it was run. the exception being thrown was nowhere near (in a completely unrelated class) where the error was and the debugger on eclipse missed it completely.
turns out, the guys made bets on how long it would take me to find it. (i beat all their wagers. i told them to give me the pot or id report their asses. see, im super productive XP )
because of that diversion, i didnt get my team to finish their project so i made them stay after xD

LOL. Yea one lil letter, number, space, or character and that throws everything off. I've had to go thru line by line studyin everything to see whats been wrong and after awhile everything just blurs together. Luckly I'm workin on a couple different projects that use arbortext which makes everything alot easier. But there's those times arbortext messes up and its back to lookin at the code in text pad or word pad and wow you already know how that is.

Pinch-To-Zoom Home Screen Preview in Non-Sense Roms?

Would it be possible to port Pinch-To-Zoom Home Screen Previews to any non-Sense rom out there? I ask because people said that Launcher2 wouldnt work on Donut, and minus the wrap-around effect, it works very well on Donut. Also I believe super D is using htc framework in his latest build, so i was wondering if what im asking is even remotely possible to do?
Lol why would you want to? We already have the preview cards, why would you want to be able to pinch to zoom to do the same thing? I suppose that if you knew what you were doing you would be able to take bits and pieces from the rosie.apk and port it to the regular launcher.apk, and it definately is possible, but I'm just saying your gonna have a hell of a time doing it lol. And your running the latest radio? Since when? How did you fix it?

eh idk its nifty lol, i was just wondering if it was possible or not, since it seems these donuts are mutating into sense/eclair wannabes lol. itd be kinda cool actually. I wonder if anyone with experience would try that.
yeah i am, how did i fix it? i switched g1s lol. it turns out my old one had a hardware problem or something because no computer would detect it for adb, and the radio wouldnt update no matter what even with a goldcard (i managed to downgrade it tho ) lol. i tried to fastboot a radio but i couldnt since something inside the phone was preventing it from being detected and preventing the radio from updating...its been dropped a lot..lol.
Since SuperD already has the HTC framework, can't you push the rosie.apk and use that? You can even re-theme it so it looks like the standard donut launcher, or get somebody smart like ADW to merge it into his launcher for you.
I'm pretty sure that SuperD only has enough of the HTC Framework to run a few things (He mentions HTCMusic specifically so I think that'
s what it is limited to). As for getting it in non-Sense roms, I'm all for telling the lazy coder Anderwebs to get off his butt and try to code it
you get a very similar result when using the almost nexus launcher for donut builds, just long click the dots.

Problem with that (and the way I think he sees it), is that by the time you long press the dots, you could have flipped through all the screens. The dots just aren't practical for swiping through screens. The double-tap is a great implementation in HelixLauncher, but unfortunately, it lowers the response time for singe tap and/or swiping (it is making sure there is not a second tap).

on topic:
-afaik only "cyanogenized" donut roms contain the required kernel/framework stuff to even detect multitouch, so it would only work on those.
-the sense zooming thing is, imho, the standard "preview cards" just laid out differently and sligthly animated, not a real zoom. I've (almost)already managed to do this for an upcoming version of my launcher.
-the point here is to find a better (and compatible) way of triggering the previews. Longpressing is "slow", multitouch isn't compatible/accurate, doubletap can be tricky...
I tried a few ideas, but the one i like more is just tapping the "home" button. Actually it's implemented to "goto your default screen" but i changed it to show desktop previews and somewhat worked (need more time to do it properly).
I may try whatever alternative you ppl provide here.
How about the alternative where you stfu and/or buy me a N1?
I like the "home" button idea. I rarely use it anyway and I'm sure he's quite jealous of the other buttons.

eek! i honestly dont like the home button idea. maybe you could make the launcher similar to the sense style launcher, by replacing the dots with a slider like sense has and making it look like a pull up tab with a button in the center to bring out the app drawer, and at the center just above the button you could pull up on it (like a regular launcher) and itd show the previews...a lot quicker and easier to navigate through the screens than your current launcher if you ask me...maybe i can draw up a concept and put it up here...

This is supposed to be a blurless rom, correct? I loaded it last night, and def still has blur in it.... When I get home I'll have to see if it actually deodexed like it promised. Even Contacts are still blur...
I will say that it's FAST though..

All of the current ROMS have *some* level of Blur. Since we cannot bypass the Moto Kernel, there are some levels of base code that just have to be there.
Tranquility, Apex, zapX, and Rubix 0.5 were all built on the 2.3.15 release and then removed as much of the blur components as they could and still have it function.
Fission & Rubix 1.0 built from a base that came out of the Droid2 SDK which appears to be very stock Android and therefore, they are a little more 'blur-less' than others. Which is both good and bad. Time is showing that some of the blur components have some nice functionality that people are missing when they go completely blur-less.

This is absolutely true and was the same for the D1 except it wasn't Blur, but you can't build AOSP for D1 either without using the extract-files.sh to pull all of the proprietary components that make the phone work.
It's a basic truth about phone firmware.

Its running pretty damn good for me. And since I have Tasker set up to sync my data every 30 mins, my battery life is great also. I'd imagine it would be even better if I set it to sync every 45 or 60 mins.
Love TranQ3.0, and I never thought I'd be saying that.

So far, I've had like maybe one or two glitches.... sometimes after a reboot the boot screen gets left on the lock screen, so you can still unlock your phone, but you have to guess where the sliders are.
another is that the calendar widget doesn't work.
Other then those two, the rom is FAST, stable, and battery life has been great. Worth it to me in my opinion... It's not an ASOP "experience" though... it's more like a hybrid.
Like it so far though, it's my daily driver.
Edit: Also, this applies to STOCK people (running the 2.2 OTA).... I was odexed, completely stock..... installed this rom with ease: no wiping, no formatting, nada. AND it deodexed my phone for me.... LOVE THAT.

I have bought tasker aS well (the stock rom doesn't let the os sleep when gps is enabled so I bought it to turn it on and off for all my apps)
Now I like your idea of syncing every 30 but I use google voice exclusively. And the voice app. Does that mean if I turn off my sync I won't get my messages in a timely mater?

This rom also doesn't seem to sleep when wick is on. Am I missing something? Anyway I do see how this can save a lot a battery with the screen dining and everything. I had to wipe my phone to get it to work. Last time I tried when I booted every system app was force closing. I feel like this is a little slower than rubix but way faster then stock. Could be too the drawer just doesn't feel right. Too bouncy for me to use quickly. Ill probably go to pro launcher. But if I don't want to how do I customize the 4 apps at the bottom? Its driving me nuts

Everyone seems to be including Darkyys RAM booster and the Fugu Tweaks in their ROMs now, does this one include either, or is the EDT scripts your own version of the said above?
I want to give this a try... only decent looking thing I've seen in a few weeks.
Nice to see you still in action.

This doesn't include them. No need. The EDT scripts are all you wil need.
Arrgh so hard to leave malice but thanks again. This looks very good too..

I'm about to flash this and check it out but I was wondering what, if anything, are the major differences between this and Bi-Winning aside from theming. Thanks.
For those of you who (like me) can't stand having an accurate battery mod, I've posted a MetaMorph that will replace the numbered batteries with the stock icons. It won't break the xml and any charging animation will stay the same. I've also included a Pepperkake revert if you change your mind.

does this rom include chinese input language?
So far so good with this ROM, it's simple and clean... pretty much just like Bionix. I've kept Overstock in it for now without OC'ing just to get things setup, I'll be tossing in TB later to use the UV features I enjoy.
** Only bug I've noticed so far is the puzzle lock screen. The puzzle piece is really fugly...like a teal-ish color with a drop shadow under it. Kinda looks like a photo negative or something. **
I would also like to request the gingerbread keyboard. I'm not sure if it's a Bionix specific deal or if it's as simple as just pushing an apk, but it's probably the only thing I feel this ROM is missing.
This was installed on a fresh formated factory ODIN. Had a softbrick issue a few hours ago so everything was re-done.
Guess I'll ride this one out until we get a 2.3.
Yea it has the Chinese keyboard as well as the 4 Chinese language options.

I did notice a Chinese keyboard installed while I was removing extra bloat. I didn't try it, but I'd assume it's functional.

There isn't too much difference between this and Bi beta 3. Thats what Im using for a base. Its not identical, I did add a few things, and removed some things.

Yeah that puzzle lock is funky. Thanks for pointing that out. I will add the GB keyboard with the next update.
Ginger Themes are my favorite. Been using GCR3 lately, but I'll give this one a look as well. Seems to have everything.

NP, I'll post anything else I find, but so far it's all perfect. I did switch over to TB kernel. I like Overstock, but it runs a little hot on my phone and I can't UV.
Great work, and I'll be looking out for next update for that GB keyboard.
Thanks!
Also,
I just started getting some fresh text messages this morning and realized the screen doesn't come on like it should when you get a text/mms.
I do use BLN, but the screen should still come on briefly.

[Q] Would this even be possible?

I really dislike the fact that the Note for has a very cool (I mean, it makes my slightly cool iPad look warm..) screen calibration. Is there anyone who'd even know how to add this to a Kernel for CM12? (not stock touchwiz) would be cool to warm it up a touch and get that eye hurting blue under control (I know it's not that bad for most, but I'm really sensitive to minute details like that.) Figured I'd at least ask. Also, I'm working on my first "custom" ROM. Essentially I want to bring back some of the helpful features that touchwiz offers within CM12. QUICK SOMEOME SCREAM! Haha I know the point of CM12 is to get rid of that, but the point of AOSP is to enjoy open source freedoms. So far I've gotten a few stock apps running as well as some other customisations

Check out CF Lumen on the play store.

I know of many apps for that. The issues with apps is that they run on top of the system. A kernel tweak would give you optimized adjustments. Essentially setting the display natively vs actively updating it. I hope this makes sense. I had an app that did that, but the constant running meant that it inherently caused the system to be stressed more. (Now this app could do much better, and please let me know if it does, but the app I had used an unnecessarily high amount of RAM for what little it was doing.) In my mind it would be simpler to just warm the display up natively from the kernel. Also (Full credit to whoever did it) I would be able to post the ROM file already modified like that without needing to make that app a system app.

Thank you for the suggestion, but in this case a link would help. Searching for it leads to MANY results, haha

Thank you sir!! I made a quick little post in there to ask them what's up, shall see if that already does it, or if it can be added.
