Using android 2.0 lock screen in 2.1 - Android Themes

Ok I know this has been asked around for Sense UI Roms but I would really like to know if anyone has been able to use the 2.0 unlock screen in 2.1 firmware. I know the framework PNGs are there so I assume its possible. Im just not sure how. I also dont want to go the route of using an app like lockbot because it just doesnt work the same and kinda slow sometimes. I just really like the 2.0 version so if anyone knows that would be greatly appreciated.

LockBot Pro in market has the 2.0 lock on it

I realize that but the problem is that I just dont like lockbot. Sometimes it just doesnt lock and sometimes the background isnt there and sometimes it reverts back to 2.1 lock screen. Not a big fan of lockbot for those reasons.

I did tried to do some replacement with the .apks and .pngs but to no avail. It seems that there is problem with the Meta-infs and .jar files. When I was using 1.5 roms, I could easily port different apks to and fro my phone. It seems to prove difficult for 2.1 roms.

p3droid made a 2.0 lockscreen that works on 5.0.7 and 5.0.7.1 but does not work of 5.0.8. Just an FYI.

Lockbot, available on Market. Welcome (Bought the Pro one myself)

It is the real one. Just version 2.0 not 2.0.1, but if you play with the .lockbot folder on the sd you can do some neat stuff.
i mean't it'sn ot the real one cause it doesn't spin all the way, and whatnot. but i GUESSS i'll see what's good with this 1 until i get a real answer to this thread
oh dang thanks for the post lockbot is amazing i love it
Thank you so much for posting twistedumbrella. I love this app!!

luma alock is that the one?
What makes it so different from the last one mentioned?
lockbot is sweet, it actually spins. spin one way to unlock and spin the ohter way to silent/vibrate, just like eclair lockscreen. i like it. plus a lot of customizable options you can do like rearrange stuff, change out icons, etc all within the app itself. much better than lock2.0.
I don't know if anyone else is having this problem, but popups from Handcent and SMS Popup no longer work while Lockbot is enabled.
It is pretty customizable. I did the lockscreen in my sig with it..

i have handcent and popups still works fine for me with lockbot enabled.
I guess it didn't work for me, because I have the popups set to be restricted. Once I put it on always allow, it works again. I actually went back to the Stericson Locksceen though and created a Metamorph to change the background whenever I want. Less problems and I don't have to have popups set to always allow (kind of annoying when I'm working on something).

MMS On Vogue...

Hello,
While playing around with the APN settings on my vogue for the MMS, I have not been able to make any progress in successfully sending or receiving mms messages. I am running Myn's Warm Donut, and with its default settings.. nothing... I have tried to add that http://mms.vtext.com/servlets/mms?X-VZW-MDN=<my10digitphonenumber> and what ever the other "Sprint + MMS thread has told for Verizon. Does any one have any advice for this. Any help is appreciated...
I have Verizon as my carrier if you didn't notice by the way...
Thank You..
Sending works for Verizon but not receive. Settings are as follows
Go to Settings -> Wireless Controls -> Mobile Networks -> Access Point Names -> Android
Modify the following settings:
MMSC: http://mms.vtext.com/servlets/mms?X-VZW-MDN=<your ten-digit phone number>
MMS proxy: leave empty
MMS port: 80
If you have already done this, I cannot help you further
make sure you're not including the <>!
No success on sprint yet?
I truly haven't googled it, but has anyone found a way to get an image from a Verizon Android phone? I just wonder if the secrets to MMS are in each provider's flavor of Android. I'm just reaching here I know. I really need MMS capability but I LUV ANDROID!

Same here. Being able to have android this functional on our vogues is a feat in itself. I really would love to have MMS but as long as android is as functional as it is now I'm happy.

Nope. Both lockbot free and pro have iphone, hero, eclair (old circular lock style), and flan (misnomer, really 2.1 which is also eclair) style lockscreens. All of them are pretty good emulations. However, it does cause notification bar lockups (can't pull down the bar) occasionally.

Are you able to download themes made by other users? When I used lockbot pro it would always say I needed a newer version to download but it would always let me upload my own lock themes.

I've been just having ppl MMS my gmail account. I'm sure MMS will be figured out soon as mostly all of the essential core features on donut have been pretty much figured out. I'm surprised more ppl don't pic message actually.

SenseHero Ported, Nand and sd

Alright, I've been meaning to do this a while;
Jamezelle asked me to port his Sense Hero build over to the new installation method a while back but I've been really caught up with my personal build. Now that I'm at a level I'm comfortable with I had some time to do this for James.
Bear in mind this is a cupcake based build, so alot of the new work we've done to tweak android won't work here. But it was good then and it's just as good now
Please don't use the 'orange' launcher on setup. I just realized now after uploading 100MB that I put in a donut launcher that won't work in cupcake. so just use rosie.
I've tweaked it a little, including userinit on boot etc.
It is nandable. Boot up is slow because it isn't odexed however once up and running it runs as good as.. well as good as it did before.. lol
The original thread for the post is here;

And here is the download;

Installed to NAND just now waiting at the Hero bootscreen. Will get back to you with more information once it had loaded and had a chance to play with this build.

Just tried out nand. Its quicker than most hero builds but i cant get passed the usual incoming calls delay. 4 rings before displaying. Also, cant get passed iit being cupcake. Love the sense hero look though. Thanks for the effort

i have been able to download just fine from the market,
did you do a clean wipe or try to keep stuff from your last build when installing?

also you dont need to format your card for donut and above. so if you had started out with donut or eclair and didnt format your card thats probably why. cause i had to format my sdcard when i was using cupcake but then i had got a new sdcard and immediately switched to donut but never formatted my sdcard and it worked. just throwing out some possibilities

Hereyugo..
I love the Hero, thanks so much! I think it's running even faster than the tatoo, but since it's cupcake, all the wifi updates I have for donut and eclair don't work for the cupcake (I tried and with no luck), it would be perfect for daily use if the wifi is working, anyway, appreciate for your work!
Thanks for all the info guys. I love the senseui in this SenseHero build…but I honestly miss Myn's Warm Donut. It is the most fast and reliable build I have tried for the vogue. Even with the Market working in the SenseHero build, it lags to much to me. I will really miss using the mail, sms, album, and calendar widgets that are in this build. Does any one know if I could just take the apk's of the widgets out of the data/apps to insert into the ported Hero theme in Myn's Warm Dount?

Anyone knows what Phone.apk this is?

I use this Phone.apk because i like the layout. I prefer it so much over the standard one, which is included in cm5.0.8 final (and 6 now). It was included once in 5.0.8test3 as far as i remember but was changed finally. Why?
So, anyone knows what version this is and where i maybe get a more recent version of it (doesn't work in cm6 for me)?
Thanks!
idk how it is in the g1 cm6 but in the cdma hero cm6 its included.
Ah - so it's a hero phone apk!?
Thanks for your hint - will have a look for it!
It's the full eclair dialer and it was removed because the G1 does not have a proximity sensor, so too many people complained about their faces hitting the hold button at the top. For a while in CM5, you could select either, but that seems gone as well.
It's still in CM5 and CM6.
Settings > Call Settings > Force Touch Keyboard.
Mine's grayed out with it checked for some reason but it works.

i have it running fine on my dream with Cy6
Well, i knew this option, but never tried it..
At least i don't have to push this apk everytime from now on. Unfortunately CM6 doesn't run stable enough for me on my MyTouch...
Thanks!

This is the phone app in 508. Go to Settings\Call Settings\ click the check box "In-call touch UI". You can even reverse which side the keyboard button is by checking the "Left-hand mode"
Anyone know what happened to the ability to slide to answer? The phone.apk had two slide bars (like the lock screen) to answer, and mute a call. However this feature was removed. Anyone know why/how to use it again?
Does anyone know if this has been backported to donut anywhere? And if so, can you point me in the right direction?

Still works for me on 5.0.8

what happens when sense is flushed from memory?

Well first is that even possible? If it is then what is the result?
I am curious because lately my phone has been resetting itself (I don't mean a full reboot, but rather sense seems to be reloading. I am not really sure how to describe it but it is kind of like in windows when you log off and and log back in and windows restarts but you don't go through the whole post test) At first I thought maybe it was an app messing up and then I thought maybe it was the rom itself messing up, but now I am thinking that maybe sense is being flushed from memory and when that happens it needs to reload.
Any thoughts?

OK so you are basically confirming my latest suspicion. I like the clock (with the weather and effects) widget to much get rid of it.
What would cause sense to reset itself?
(If I don't use sense then does that mean I lose all my flickr and facebook syncing?)

do you know of any aosp roms with sense besides alysius?
If you download beautiful widgets you can get the sense looking clock and there are several widgets to replace the sense ones. Some HTC apps and widgets have not been mimicked yet. Launcher Pro Plus has a contatcs and one other widget available now and he is working on making more like HTC's. I really like launcher pro and run it instead of sense if I run a rom with sense, which is not very often. I have been running darchdroid or CM6 most of the time and do not miss sense.
You might try reflashing the ROM you are using without a wipe and see if that fixes it.

Will reflashing have any effect on apps2sd
I wish all apps had a free or trial version so I could sample them before having to commit to any money. Beautiful widgets does it mimic the weather effects of HTCs clock/weather widget?

I am using Aloysuis 2.1.2; the restarts occur in both the 2.1.2 and the 6-29 update. The kernel is listed as being: 2.6.29-d30020a8 [email protected] #1
I am not using any task killers other then autokiller (which came with the rom and allows you to set memory levels on when the phone will start various apps e.g. empty app, content provider, and hidden. I currently have it set to the optimum preset which has the following levels set: hidden app: 40, content provider: 50, empty app: 60
Being that I know believe sense is restarting in spare parts I have "home app in memory" checked but I don't think this has any real effect on the problem.
