Change Lock Screen

Tried searching this but didn't get any good results...
How would I go about changing the lockscreen other than using something like Lockbot? Like a more permanent solutions such as flashing one.

thanks.... i actually did another search.... and i found the vanilla one... it took a while to get it working but i finally got it!!! thanks for the links!

No problem, I remember how frustrating lockbot could get back before I had root. Flashing a rotary lockscreen might have been the thing i wanted root for most

[Q] Android Lock Screen?

Is there a way to modify the Android lock screen? I am currently using WidgetLocker, but I would like to customize the lock screen that is the default.
I am currently using:
GingerborgMod v 9.1.4
2.2.1
GT-I9000
Any other info you need, let me know.
Thanks in advance.

Modify how?

In order to modify the lock screen you would need to be able to modify the policies.jar file - but what are you trying to modify? Just change the existing lock screen with another one?

I would like for the screen to show the weather. I like the original lock screen, but I just want to add other widgets.

I'm taking it that this is not possible?

Only way I know how is with an application called Widget Locker. I hear mixed results from the community - but it will do what you are looking for.
Otherwise... you would have to learn how to program and tear apart the policies.jar and figure out how to tweak it to make it work to add said widgets.

+1 you have to be a dev to modify the policies.jar.

if u are willing to use an app for that...
then,i suggest u to get an app called 'Lock bot pro' from the market.
it'll give u several options for lockscreens(iphone,SE,HTC,galaxy-s etc.)
i myself using it with TW4 on my O2X
(down bellow i've provided 2 original shots of SGS-II and 2 shots of my O2X just for ur refrence)

I've tried simply lock screen and ripple lock, both actually were not successful in hiding LG's lockscreen after a reboot.
Is Lock bot Pro able to stay even after a reboot?

no...this happens with the lock bot pro as well.
but how many times one has to reboot his device
i think its just fine to get it set up quickly again after reboot.(just my opinion)
and by setting up i mean u just have to open the app just once to get it working again...easy enough i guess
EDIT : i just checked with the new version of lock bot pro...it does not go back to the original LG lock screen after reboot.it is persistent.

Oh ok, got it. I though it was just me.

well there's widget locker, which allows you to choose between multiple styles and allows you to customize every aspect of your lock screen, you can also add widgets directly to the lock screen!!
besides that it is persistent, so it activates automatically when you turn on the phone

I actually tried WL last night, and you're right, it is persistent! Upon boot, the LG lockscreen appears. But after a few seconds, WL automatically overtakes it. Awesome app and well worth the money!

Samsung Galaxy S2/3 Lockscreen?

Hello,
I am looking for an Samsung galaxy s2 or s3 lockscreen for our LG O2x.
I have searched on google but i dont found anything :-/
Maybe anyone can help me or can port one...
It would be very nice :good:
Thanks and Regards

Friend, we don't have the framework of that lockscreen.. I guess the percentage of success is 1% out 100% unfortunately..

Hmmm thats really bad hope in any time we can get it
Well its possible to use an other lockscreen as the lg lockscreen?
(i want to change it via root)
Any other lockscreen that i can use, like cm 9 lockscreen or any other?

We can use the ICS stock..
Procedure:
1)Go to /system.
2)Open build.prop
3)ro.lge.capp_lockscreen=true -> Change this to
ro.lge.capp_lockscreen=false..
Save it and restart the device! You are done!

Yep will try this, thanks my friend :good:
Can i delete delete the LG one?
If yes how can i delete it?

ok u will first need to download Widget Locker from Play store (u need to buy this) (or get it the pirated way) ( your decision, but to support the developer(s) please buy it
then u will need to download the Samsung galaxy s3 dandelion live wallpaper by wasabi
then chose the live wallpaper as default one, remember to go to options and checkmark: flying seed, touch, water droplet and touch dragged
open up the widget locker app and delete all the widgets except the clock, long touch till u see edit, choose that, go to background color and drag the slider all the way to the right so it gets transparent, then scroll down to the owner info line 1 and delete the text
go back to the widget locker screen again, long press and chose custom slider,
then press get themes, this will open the browser, then scroll down to the Invisible Tabs chose that, this will open a Complete action with window, chose widgetlocker, it will download, take down the statusbar, u will see the download press on it, it will open widget locker, your invisible theme is now chosen
then slide the right slider to the left and chose disable
then slide the left slider to the right go to icon, chose gallery then chose the blank image provided by me down below you now have a blank slider, then press done,
this will you back to the widget locker app, then long press and chose application, do this 4 times and chose the applications u want there
this icons are gonna stay at the bottom of the lockscreen, and you want the invisible slider to be right over them
And that's how u make a look alike Samsung galaxy s3 lockscreen

Help customize my Lockscreen

Hey Guys,
can anyone help me to get rid of the clock on the lockscreen? I don't want a big ass clock there!!! just a regular clock on the statusbar would be good enough. I just wanna have the Lockscreen to my wallaper.
For any help/advice/tips on how to achieve this I would be very grateful. I hope I don't have to decomplie systemui or anything.... maybe thru the new themes function? I saw they can change the font color and so on... maybe setting it to 100% transparency?
with help of a xposed module called Costum Text I was able to get rid of the text at the bottom saying something like swipe to unlock! U know my s6 is set to german and in german the swipe to unlock text is like 2 full sentences!!! Who needs that? like WTF? as if someone after using his phone for 5 minutes hasn't already figured out how to unlock his phone!!! am i the only one who thinks that about the text @ the bottom?

Haha, luckily for you. I created a small app using tasker to disable the wallpaper and clock and enable it if like. but you need root.
Just unzip the file and install the apk within.

So u just install costum text and choose the app u want to change the text for in this case it's systemui. There u will be presented with bubbles where u can put in the original text that u want to change. Fox example u put in Swipe screen to unlock it has to be 1:1 like Swipe not swipe. And then u just put a blank space in the new text field if u want it to disappear, otherwise u can also put anything u want. Everything to take effect u click on the three dots in the right top corner and select Relaunch App and that's it! I also got rid of plug in text.....

Wow so glad I opened this thread! So the only thing that's left is the Phone Icon but i think that can be solved by setting the transparency to 100% of that Icon which should be in systemui or the systemui theme apk... I will have a look at this in few days I need access to a windows machine and I hope samsung uses .png's and not this qmg shiz.... the shortcut will be still intact but at least not visible which is still good enough for me.

Hahaha, very good idea. I hope you succeed because i use themes on my phone. And previously lollipop v5.0.2 I was able to take out the qmg from the theme\lock-1\base.apk and convert to png, make it transparent and put back the png into the apk without decompiling. That work, camera and ecall was transparent. Now if i try it with the new themes on lollipop 5.1.1 the apk fails toe work and the default theme is loaded.
So yes, if you can change the systemui for lock screen then it would be superb..:good:
But i am glad to help.
