Are you talking about the black circle buttons behind the icons? I think you could probably replace them using m10 tools much like with making a custom lock ring.

I think i know what you are asking. You want to change the shortcuts that are on the lock screen. Click the personalize button. Then click lock screen. Then click settings. Depending on the lock screen selected you will get an option that says "select Shortcuts" (click this item) or a window that shows the four shortcuts. Clicking on one of the shortcuts in that window will allow you to replace this shortcut with an application in your app drawer. Also make sure you are editing the one that says (current)

I believe the OP wants to use custom themed icons that he has instead of the icons that come in the system. Not just changing the app short cut. Does anyone know if metamorph works with any if these builds? That would be one way to use your favorite custom icons...
Edit: another way you might be able to do this is modifying the app icon using apk editor. Hope this helps.
Can you clarify your question please........ ????

Yes this is correct. sorry didnt think the original post was that confusing
We need to start helping eachother a little better guys.
This thread is the very first search result on Google when you search for "custom icons sense 3 lock screen", seriously, go search for yourself. It is sad that this thread has been hit enough times to be the first result on Google and all I, and the 664 other people looking for the same thing see is this guy getting yelled at for asking a question. If the question has been asked 1.5million times before of course I can understand the frustration, but post a link and then yell; or yell and then post the link, either way. But to just simply say that there are threads about the topic already but not provide any links is asinine; that makes you contribute the the junk threads just as much. If someone does ask the question for the 1200th time post a link and maybe suggest some key terms for a search next time. I know 100% of the time I ask a question that has already been asked, its because I wasn't sure of the proper terminology or key words to use to find it.
Seriously guys, I'm not trying to rant, im not trying to flame or troll or any of that. But were a community of people who have a common interest, and you should never scold someone for asking a question. Were supposed to be helping each other out, not tearing each other down because one person thinks there more "entitled" than the next.
Now im going to continue to search and will post back with any links that I can find. I encourage anyone who already knows the answer to post links as-well it would be much appreciated by many im sure.

I'm on a Captivate with Axura 2.5CE flashed onto 2.2. I was just wondering if it was possible to change the lockscreen from the stupid christmas background to whatever I have on my desktop without an extra app.
If not, that's fine. Does anyone know if the other (older) versions of Axura are customizable like this or what? Also, does anyone have other versions of Axura? This is the first custom ROM that I actually like.
Get ready to be hammered for posting in the wrong spot. You can change the wallpaper, like in every rom, out stock. Long press home screen, select wallpapers, tada

Please do not come into another thread or create your own thread and bash another devs work. That is one way to really get people pissed at you. I had that created as we are coming into the holidays. Unless you do not celebrate Christmas, you have no reason opening your mouth. If you want something done the way you want it, do it yourself. Also, if you want a different wall paper, just make sure it is sized correctly and put it on your damn SD card and apply it.
You successfully flashed a rom, but can't figure out how to change the wallpaper or post in the correct forum?

Wow..Bro...you really need to chill out a little bit whole bunch. He doesn't like the frigging wallpaper and I'm sure he didn't think before asking...sheese...it's not like he says the rom sucks..he says he likes it... What is up with this cussing someone out ?

You really need to check your attitude some.People ask thing in the wrong sections everyday.. and it's for the moderators to deal with..not you and for the record...yes...you did curse at him...since you ended your rather rude post with telling him about his "damn" sd card..so the whole tone of that conversation is quite evident...It doesn't take a lot to see how agrivated you are at him...but you need to back off no-matter how much hard work you have put in on Axura...because this kind of attitude,coming from you, towards someone else liking or disliking something about your rom flies in the face of what you have been saying all along on that thread on just how different it is and how people are treated...If you care to take this to PM's with me...feel free.

Ok guys cool down. Please search before opening a new thread and if the thread is about a specific Rom please post in the rom thread.

How do I make a unlock like this one?
Download and install WidgetLocker from the Market.
Those are custom skins in particular, which you can find here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=825553

Hey guys, I've created a new thread (as per request from mwielgosz), regarding the mods I've made for the Haxzamatic Honeybread theme, as well as some new additions for getting an Atrix, Thunderbolt, or Bionic setup. The zip files are directly linked to my Dropbox, so there's no worries about getting sent to some obscure download site (one of my pet peeves).
Below are screenshots of my personal setups, and I've made the zip files available below, for anyone who wants them. PM me for and custom dock requests, and please specify which setup you want (dock type, color, icon layout, etc.). These are pretty full packages... icons, docks, boot animations, wallpapers, etc., so you should be good to go once you get them.
A special thanks, and credit for some of the Honeycomb package to Haxzamatic (aka GFX Android), Cyber Warrior for some of the Thunderbolt wallpapers (totally sick!!), the Cyanogen Mod team, and to everyone else here at XDA who makes owning an Android phone so much fun!
I hope this thread can become a one-stop-shop for anyone looking for some nice setups to complete their themes, and for any devs who are looking to incorporate new things into their projects (fyi, I have the Xoom, Atrix, and Thunderbolt system dumps, and the 3.0 SDK for any interested devs).
As a side note... NONE of the zip files are flashable (with the exception of the boot animations). Just unpack them and enjoy! Again, for any special requests, just PM me with what you would like. Thanks again to everyone, and happy modding!
Here's the Dropbox link for direct download! Let me reiterate, NONE of these zips are flashable! Just download them to your PC, extract the files, and put them on your device. These mods are also NOT device or ROM specific, so they will work on any phone. If you want a custom dock or something else, please email me with your request, providing specifics on what you would like. Thanks guys!
Atrix - http://dl.dropbox.com/u/22585959/Android1/Atrix.zip
Bionic - http://dl.dropbox.com/u/22585959/Android1/Bionic.zip

Thunderbolt - http://dl.dropbox.com/u/22585959/Android1/Thunderbolt.zip
And please guys... if you like the setups, don't be afraid to hit the thanks button!

Edit: scratch that... got it working. Enjoy guys!
And here's the Bionic setup... the system dump isn't available yet, so there's no icons. I've included Icons from the other zips so you can get a nice look. I'll post Bionic icons as soon as they become available.
EDIT: Full zip added to OP

Absolutely! what would you like in place of it? The problem with custom Sense docks is that icons don't look right unless they're embedded (the scaling is off). Let me know what you want in place of it, and I'll throw it up ASAP!
Either nothing or just the phone text centered without the icon would be great, I'm using the dock with adw launcher and Ive got five apps on the dock, with the big icon there the second app text touches just the edge of it.

Ok so I am still pretty new to the XDA forums and yea I am sure I have asked some stupid questions. Hey that's what we NOobs do right? Soooooooo
Because I like to forage through and search and read the posts and threads on the Thunderbolt forums I have learned a few things. Thanks to ROMADDICT I can now make my own splash screens. My current one is a picture of yours truly with my name, address, and my wifes telephone number in case my phone is lost or stolen. Not something the average joe on the street knows how to fix. So i haven't made enough of those that I really have any images to post. But to let you know. I can do it. If you want one let me know.
Thanks to JMaher and Redmonian I can also make lock rings for the thunderbolt and a few other phones. I am including some of my favorites on here if you want something in particular let me know. I'll update this later with links. I have all the superbowl rings for every Superbowl also. I have included a couple images. I will make a green bay one if someone wants it (I just can't bring myself to do it yet lol) but I did include a Bears one or two or three. I do have my priorities
Thanks to MCLabia i can also make custom lock screens to replace the weather lock screen. I have a couple of my favorites of those here also.
So what I am saying is this. 1) If I can do it then you can too. Just look up these guys' posts and they give you tutorials on how to accomplish the things I do. 2) If you just don't have the time or don't want to learn then I don't mind giving back to the community.
So with that being said. I am offering. Just pm me. Or post on this thread.
and the ever present disclaimer.......... If you are attempting to install these then you have already voided the warranty on your phone because you have rooted it. Tsk Tsk
And I make sure that everything I make works before I ever make a post of it. But in the event you do something, I mean anything at all and your phone gets messed up first check the forum because someone else probably already did that too and knows how to fix it. Secondly I'm not responsible for you flashing a sense 3.0 lock ring or splash screen to a KRazor or whatever phone you have.
A few more screen shots
I thought I would add more screen shots.
Edit: Fixed the attachments. The Spider Man lock ring isn't mine. I think it's Redmonians. I didn't know how to do them yet when i made that weather lockscreen.

If you are able to do any of these or all of them that would be phenomenal! thanks a lot for your time much appreciated

I made a few more rings and splash screens and lock screens. CiviCon20s I sent you a file that has instructions, lock rings, splash screens, and lock screens in it. Enjoy. I also included all the images I made so if you ever need to have them redone you have the images. The Burst one was just an image i found on google looking for something else and thought it would be a nice ring.
The links aren't good permanently but if you tell me any of them you want through message or on this thread i will send you a fresh link for them.

I didn't realize that my links would expire. If you post on this thread or send me a message i will send you a fresh link for whatever ones you want. I will post some more of the lock rings i made and a couple of the lock screens also. I can make splash screens also.
For what's it worth I have been working on my imaging software and have made a lot of progress in making the images I do look really good for lock rings and splash screens. I can do weather lock screens also. There really isn't much I can't do now with images and rings. This will be the last time I bump this post. I just wanted to let everyone know I can do lock rings etcetera for them. I know there are many others who do lock rings now and Redmonian is still the most popular one i've seen here and he is readily available and does very good work. So don't get me wrong, i'm not taking away from anyone else who does them I am just offering to help people who want them also. Just because my company isn't doing anything major for another week so I'm going to be bored until next Monday. Then i'll be busy with work stuff.
