[Q] Mod your unlock screen - Android Themes

Hi everybody,
I am kind of a newbie, but I've been wanting to mod my lock screen.
I already made the "skin" of what I want (I kind of s*ck at this, but anyway...)
You can see it in the attachments.
I wanted to know how to create the unlock pattern, and how to put it in a rom.
FYI, I'm using MCR and MIUI.
Thanks!

G1 Problems and ROM Questions...

Hey guys and gals. I'm new here but I did have a few questions.
Right now my G1 is giving me problems. Here is the scenario. I have loaded into my phone the OpenHome with the Aero theme, BetterCut, Font-Games font pack, and the Icon pack for Aero. Once I set OpenHome to only use 3 screens, I get a force close error. Then, if I were to shut off the phone and then restart it, it hangs on the Android screen (the new one since I already have the cupcake loaded into my phone).
Has anyone had this problem? Any work arounds to fix it?
I was also thinking of rooting my phone to see if that would fix my problems.
Which ROM would you recomend for me to use? and what are the pros and cons for each. Not looking to the Rosie or Sense UI rom yet, but the basic Cupcake rom.
Thanks
This post is in the wrong section as this is for development only.
If you do root your mobile, I would currently suggest Cyanogen's ROM as its up to date, stable and has some cutting edge stuff inside. The theme is also sleek and lightweight without any real modifications to make it look like Hero etc.
XDA timeout - double post.
Thanks for you help.
And my bad about the double post. I'll be chillin in the penalty box if anybody needs me.
Don't worry about it, the double post was by me as XDA struggles with the amount of users hitting the forum ^_^ There's a new Q&A section for the Dream so you can post questions and that which are not related to the development of Android. Unless its a specific ROM issue usually the posts go there.
Hope the rooting and the use of the ROM of your choice goes well!
One last question.
Where can I find specific directions on how to root my phone for the very first time?
I've located a few things but keep getting errors when I try to install the ROM?
Thanks for all your help

helps me a lot when I'm in trouble.. it also covers everything you need..
Indeed, its a decent thread of which I hope still gets updated. I've also had it in my signature too, to help raise the awareness of such an FAQ.
I'm looking around and not seeing anything concerning Non-rooted phones already running cupcake (Build CRB43).
Will I have to downgrade to RC29 in order to begin rooting my phone?
And is that possible even though I'm running the latest version of Android (ver1.5)?
Good question! I didn't see that you had 1.5 OTA running as it wasn't stated in your original post so we assumed you were running on 1.1. I just quickly read that you wanted a basic cupcake ROM...
You would have to downgrade yeah if you want to obtain ROOT and thus enabling you to flash custom ROMs and other goodies.
Yes, you have to downgrade to RC29 and it can be done with the latest version of the phone software. Follow the directions they already posted. It's reasonably straightforward. There's even a video guide on youtube so you can see what the various screens look like.

check biovolt list items 4&5 and pavelx1 for stock roms
Trust me I did use the search function, I just didnt know that stocking had to do with restoring to the default rom.
I actually already have BioVolts video of how to stock lala on my computer, just never had the time to play it and check what it was for.
Thanks

Root and Know What?

I am Newbie and I Just Rooted my phone.
So what can I do Know?
I did the Wi-Fi Tethering and Worked.
I downloaded Metamorph but didn’t found any Themes.
I want to delete Sprint Apps, and don't know how to...
Want to change the lock screen, but without changing the ROM...
Anybody could come with a List of what people can do, know that the phone is rooted.
BTW I am Running Sprint 2.1

Click on the link and download Fresh Kitchen.
You can create a nandroid, remove the bloatware, change the current lockscreen, create your own rom.

Welcome to the world of root!
While what Dave provided is in no way bad or wouldn't help you accomplish what you want, I suggest looking up adb commands.
Check out the main wiki thread in my sig. It will have a thread called "How to Remove Stock Apps, etc."
Once you have looked a little there, post back and let us know if you can't find some information, and we'll gladly help you out.
I've got to agree with Riggs, while Kitchens are nice for people who know what they're doing, I'm a firm beleiver that people just starting out should use ADB as much as possible.

Thank you for sharing.
It's so cool!!!

ty
Which one? Dont say everyone pls
hi ,did not notice your thread before... I use gerasimov android lockscreen but your V1 looks really cool and minimal, could you please make it in wvga resolutions?
This is great, I love it. But before I try it, can you please answer me the following questions if you don't mind:
1. I have a Samsung Omnia i900, I already read that this will work on my phone in earlier post of this thread, but Should this replace the build in Unlock screen of the Omnia i900? (you know, that blue screen "Tap Unlock" to unlock device).
2. I also use SPB Mobile Shell 3.5.5, My ROM is the latest original WinMo 6.1 Pro that comes with the device, Will this lock/unlock of yours cause problems with that?
3. Where do I install the CAB file? in My Device or I can install it on My Storage?
Thank you in fornt. Waiting for your feedback.
This lockscreen is replacing the default lockscreen and you must install it my device, but i am not sure if its gonna work on a 6.1 rom..
- What's the worst scenario if this doesn't work on 6.1 rom?
- In case I install it (and yes, it will overwrite the original lock screen of 6.1 rom), but is it reversible? Can it be uninstalled from Remove Programs and if that is possible, will the original lock screen of 6.1 rom be back?
Sorry for asking too many questions, but i always wanna be sure before I do something. Better late than sorrow
Yes its removable and the original lock screen will come back
Thank you styla42, I will try it now and I would notify you with the results .
Cheers mate

No, it's not working, uninstalled and now it's back the old one like you said.
Anyway thanks for your assistance
Could reupload V1 Grey version? Everywhere it says that file is deleted
Updated first post, there is a problem with multiupload, thx for your warning..
Thanks for reupload
Whoops, i noticed some bug. I unistalled previous lockscreen, reset, installed yours, reset. Now when i lock my device there`s not sliding bar in the bottom of screen, but the little padlock symbol in the top. I`d like to have lockscreen like on the screens in your first post. Did i something wrong while installing it? My phone is Xperia X1. Sorry for my bad English.

What Launcher and Widgets are this?

Hey Guys,
do you know what this is?
And do you know where can i get this?
fiden
If I remember rightly that looks like the orange (or maybe Tmobile) launcher, it was included in RCmix rom a while back when I used to use it I think, not sure if it is still included in that ROM, maybe ask on the RC mix thread :-
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=702398
hey thank you... i need 10 Posts to write in the thread .. so im stuck to ask here
No problem, looking at that thread it is still in it, so maybe you could just install the rom?
Hey, would it be possible to get that samsung launcher to the villainrom13? Or especially the application menu! I like the swipe menu more than the scrolling one. Just asking and trying to get the 10 posts as well
EDIT: Ah never mind! Found it here! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=735632
Should allways search before asking!
