Clean simple lockscreen?

I'd like to use a clean simple lockscreen like this one:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I'm not that into the whole adb push thing so i would want to simply flash it through recovery mode.
Is there any flashable zip for that?
Currently using Cronos Droid 1.5.1.

I want exactly the same thing. I have been searching this forum for a few weeks now...

In my opinion best looking lockscreen there is..
I'm running CronosDroid 1.5_BFS_JIT, but I seriously doubt if this lockscreen works with JIT.

I think the original lockscreen was done by drizzy and i have used it on MCR to version 3.2 and it works fine. As for Chronos i have not tried it on that yet but i think there would be problems if you were using Jit.
Any way i have uploaded the file to RS in update form... do a nandroid first...
The wallpaper for the background you can hunt down if not drop a line here i think i have it somewhere

hi you can try this;
1. extract the file /system/framework/com.htc.resources.apk from your phone via adb or with root explorer
2. open the extracted com.htc.resources.apk with 7-zip ( open archive )
3. open the folder 'res'
4. browse to the folders : drawable-land-480x320 and drawable-port-480x320
5. copy the *.png files to your local drive
6. open the *.png files with editor ( photoshop eg. ) and remove the 'arch' images etc.
7. save the *.png files
8. copy them back into the above mentioned folders
9. close 7-zip ( save the apk )
10. via adb push the apk back in the folder /system/framework
if you're running the modaco-rom you can also try to push this file to the /system/framework folder on your phone
hope this works for you..
*this file will not work on 2.1 based roms!! just on 1.5 based roms....i will see if i can fix a clear lock screen for 2.1 this weekend

will this work with villainrom 10.3?
edit:apparently it doesnt, could you fix it so it does?

like i said .. the file i added will not work on 2.1 roms so no .. it will not work for villain 10.*

would you be abe to create one that does?

can you pull the com.htc.resources.apk from your villainrom and post it here?
currently i'm running Cronos 1.7.1 and i don't think it will work if i pull the file from my rom for you to push it onto villainrom...

could you post instructions how to, i'm new to this.

for VR10 you can find it here: villainrom.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=33&t=1545&p=17601#p17601

THANK YOU!

Will it only work for VR10 ?
Im on Cronos 1.7.1 What would happen if i flashed it?
Could you maybe make one work for Cronos?

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=707599
i used the file from the Cronos 1.7.1 rom so i'm not sure it will work for
villainrom though...

The version i posted on the villainrom-forums will only work on villain rom 10 series. (Because i think non of the updates changed the com.htc.resources.apk file, but i'm not sure).
The simply anser if it works on other rom's is simply no, because the most custom rom's have their own changes in the above mentioned file, so you will get lots of fc or your system won't boot, after that you can't use my posted files for a themed VR10 because a theme changes the pictures of the com.htc.resources.apk file, and i havn't them included in my update zip, because there are the original ones in.
I hope this will help you.
If you want to change this in your own custom rom, you must know the basics of open a .apk file, change the picturefiles and pack it again in a update.zip and the least signing a file.
this is what odin13 mentioned in his post:
1. extract the file /system/framework/com.htc.resources.apk from your phone via adb or with root explorer
2. open the extracted com.htc.resources.apk with 7-zip ( open archive )
3. open the folder 'res'
4. browse to the folders : drawable-land-480x320 and drawable-port-480x320
5. copy the *.png files to your local drive
6. open the *.png files with editor ( photoshop eg. ) and remove the 'arch' images etc.
7. save the *.png files
8. copy them back into the above mentioned folders
9. close 7-zip ( save the apk )
10. via adb push the apk back in the folder /system/framework

This is from my VillainROM 10.3.1.

Updated Version of Transparent Theme - AuraxTSense

--Update Feb 20--
Sorry guys had to remove the link to this theme as requested by sopL87. Please look at my post on page 2. If I have time I'd like to ask NeoPhyTe.x360 if he's let me post an edited verison of his AuraxTSense theme thereby fixing this problem...
--Original Post--
This is my favourite theme because of the transparent look. I really like the alpha transparencies on the status bar so even with a while background it still shows everything. I've updated it to fix some graphics issues that were bugging me...
- Removed black line under transparent status bar
- Created new lockscreen as old one wasn't displaying properly
- Changed "InCall" lockscreen as I think the author forgot this
- Updated HTC Skin Preview
- Resigned APK (installs no worries)
Special thanks to the original author NeoPhyTe.x360 for creating this awesome theme. Also thanks to sopL87 for porting NeoPhyTe.x360's theme over to Desire HD.
----Instructions-----
Simply copy .apk to microSD card and install with a file manger as you would any other app. Using stock HTC Sense UI, open your personalize menu and then select Skin, then choose AuraxTSense.
Enjoy

revolution hd
does this theme works on revolution hd rom?
thx

^^ Um I don't see why not. I mean I've not personally tried Revolution ROM but I have tried this theme on Sense UI, Laucher Pro and ADW.Launcher and they all work. If you are using Launcher Pro or ADW.Launcher for me the only way I could seem to use the theme was to install the .apk file then switch into Sense UI then select the AuraxTSense Skin in under your Sense Profile/Skins. Finally I'd switch back to Laucher Pro or ADW.Launcher and the skin would remain on. My guess is if using a custom launcher other than the stock HTC Sense one you may well need to have Sense installed to select this skin.

is it possible to put down all transparent?
so that we do not see the buttons?

very beautifull, but one element is not.
When I clic on phone, this bouton is bleu and is not beautifull

This is exactly what lead me to edit this theme so yeah I can highly recommend doing some editing. Very easy to do. Just rename the .apk theme file to a .zip file and you can open up all the folders and see all the images. Many have sensible easy to find names like statusbarXxxxxx or lockscreenXxxxxx. Use your favourite image editing software or just grab the images from other themes. Then you just need to copy the edited files back into the original zip with the program 7-zip or winRAR and then you'll also need to search for Stericsson's Autosigning tool. The Auto Sign tool resigns the .apk otherwise Android won't allow you to install the .apk.

Thank you for the "update", especially the <Removed black line under transparent status bar>

I must try
thanks

afetr modification, I can't install my modifed apk

^^ You need to resign the .apk file with Stericssons Autosign tool. Word of advice is DO NOT choose the option in Stericssons tool to install the registry file. If you install the registry file every .zip file you double click to open will instead be signed by the tool and there is no easy way to uninstall. I had to do a load back to a previous restore point in Windows 7 to get rid of that. So the best thing is when opening up Stericssons AutoSign tool is first thing delete the .reg file so you cannot accidently modify your registry. Using the tool you only need to choose the option 4 to manually sign your .zip or .apk file.
If you really run into problems and can't figure it out PM me. I'm happy to send you the autosign tool you or to sign the .zip or .apk if need be... be warned though I'm just about to move interstate so I will be pretty busy for the next bit. I may not have time to go on XDA for a little while, just have to see.

Sorry guys sopL87 has brought to my attention that I've accidently broken the forum rules by not contacting the authors before posting their edited work. He requests that I remove the link to the theme so I have removed the link.
I am moving interstate tomorrow so I'll be busy for a while but I'd like to contact the original author NeoPhyTe.x360 when I have time and see if he would let me post an edited version of his AuraxTSense theme. Again this will take time. If all is good I'll post back here if this is a go.
Sorry guys my bad...

arf bad luck ,
I wait for new info .
Sorry for you .
Thanks

[GUIDE] How make themes to QQLauncher

Hi.
This is tutorial "how to make themes to QQLauncher". It's pretty easy
What you need:
- Android 1.5+ phone
- QQLauncher
- 7-Zip
- Notepad++
- Photoshop, GIMP or whatever you like for resizing pngs
-----------------------------------
1. First you need to install QQLauncher (like a normal app).
2. Then download theme from online gallery (follow menu button -> Theme -> Theme gallery -> choose one of themes, i.e. "复古印象"), but don't apply it!
3. Now connect your phone to computer and navigate to "sdcard/QQLauncher". You need to copy "log.log" file and theme (with strange chinesse name) from "theme" folder to your desktop.
4. Open your "log.log" file with Notepad++ and you'll see lines like these:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
- in blue square there is app name
- in yellow app package name (like in "data/app")
- in red app activity name - we need this to name icon
5. Find icon which you want to add (if you need to resize it, there are recommended sizes <because QQLauncher doesn't support icon scalling>: for HDPI 86x86 to 90x90 and MDPI 53x53 to 65x65) and rename it to this "com.cih.gamecih2.gamecih" (you need to write all name in lowercase, otherwise it won't work!)
6. Open your theme file with 7-Zip and copy icon to "icons" folder.
7. If you want to have other dockbar background, you need to replace "dock_bg.png" file in "icons" folder.
8. If you want to have other app background for apps without definied icons, you need to replace "appbackground.png" file in "icons" folder.
9. Copy your theme file to "sdcard/QQLauncher/theme" and apply it in Theme gallery
----------------------------
If you have any questions or suggestions to this tutorial, just write me on PM

Amazing !! Thx a lot, i'll try this week end.

Thanks!

8.1 if you wanna change folder icon put image called folder.png

Okay, i want to theme the ChompSMS icon, so i just isntalled it, but in the log.log file, I cant even find chompsms, so what should i do. Ill attach my log.log file

Hmmm, I don't see it in your log file. Try to find apk file in "data/app" and then search for it in log
Nexus Prime - Tapatalk

@supetawesomedude you said you just installed it, you have to reboot after install to update log, so just reboot then browse your log

@supetawesomedude, just delete log.log file and then restart launcher, I will generate with these app you have got

Thanks to both of you! Both methods advised have worked fine and my phone is even sexier

i dont hav any task killer!

is it only me? :-s
i love this launcher! please help!

Not working for me
Anyone mind taking a stab at making a theme using the icons (with permission from teh OP) from here? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1225629

What the hell, I've added many icons to my own personal theme and I have correctly named, replaced, resized, compressed, and then I renamed the zip file to 圆润有爱 and then placed in the qqlauncher. then i try to apply it, and it gives my some kind of error in chinse. I have no idea what to do, ill attach my 圆润有爱.zip as a link to mediafire. http://www.mediafire.com/?693bt619sdg4iq9

You've choosen another theme you are working on NOW first?
So apply other theme, mount USB, put file in QQlauncher/theme
and then unmount USB, go to themes and apply the new one?
Or?

add the right appbackground.png for my theme

[THEME][ICS][HDPI][3/23/12] ~ SHADES OF YELLOW ~ {no ics blue here-WIP}

Gentlemen...... Behold!

This is only tested on existz' aospX rom for HTC Desire HD/Inspire 4G. The icons and xml edits are all there though, so if you are adventurous go ahead and decompile and use em.
ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS DO A NANDROID BACKUP!!! NO EXCUSES!

ICS Clock font

CHANGELOG

Looking very nice. On an aokp rom for the mytouch4g so I doubt it would work but looking very nice
Sent from my MyTouch 4G using xda premium

So if I only push the framework and UI it will theme my status bar, keyboard, and such? Or do I have to install the icons too?
Sent from here using magic air wires.

Ya the icons are separate.

OK I am having second thoughts on sharing this right now... maybe I'll put this back up in the future but for now I am closing this thread.

Why close it?
I'm gonna try and see if this will work on CM9 on my sgs

[TUT][MOD][NEEDS TESTERS] AOSP Lockring Mods

Does Need Testing on the 4x HD, works for me, can someone please confirm for me thou please? And test on CM10.2, BACKUP first!​
Bored of the same old crappy lock icon in AOSP Roms?!​
Well Look no further, these icons will change the Lock icon to a selection of custom images, made by me :3​
Code:
I am not responsible for anything at all, if you brake your phone, your problem not mine, but i will help because i'm a nice guy!
Notice
Don't ask for Flashable Zips, 2 Reasons. 1. Makes it too Noob Friendly, this will help you see what else makes up the system ui of your phone and open you up to be able theme them accordingly. 2. I couldn't actually get it to flash properly xD It's good to get experience with the below method thou! And it's totally Worth it tbh!!
These will probably only work on AOSP roms, but i have only tested these myself on my Desire C and they work flawlessly, no lag, nothing like that! So enjoy using them guys :3​
Okay so now on how to install you desired ring, it is not as easy as just flashing the zip in recovery, plainly because, their is no zip for you to flash :highfive: Haha, so you need to make some edits to your Framework-res.apk instead until i can be bothered to make a flashable zip for these
First Thing you guys need to do is find your framework-res.apk, i'm sure you allknow where it is but just incase i'll tell you :3 It is Located in the Desired Rom Zip under System>framework>and there it is! I personally would extract it to my desktop and leave it there for later :3​
**********​
The second thing your gonna wanna do is Decompile or find any way in which you like to extract the res folder that is inside the .apk, again, i'd extract this to my Desktop again because it's an easy place to put it :3​
**********​
The next thing your gonna need to do is press Thanks on this post to unlock the download Just kidding but, yeah, What you gotta do is download my zip of mods, have a browse of them until you find the one you like, and extract the two images in the Resized/root of the folder to, you guessed it, the desktop You can use the other images outside the folder but the image will be bigger (HDPI)​
**********​
So Now you've got the two chosen images on your desktop, navigate into the res folder you extracted earlier and navigate to drawable-mdpi, this is all the images and stuff that make parts of your phone, i'd leave most of this alone unless you know what you doing​
**********​
Now drag and drop the two custom images into the drawable-mdpi folder and allow the files to be overwritten, now put the res folder back into the framework-res.apk and recompile it or do just whatever method it is you like to get the custom res folder back into the .apk​
**********​
Now, you can either put the framework apk back into the rom zip, and reflash it with your custom lockring, however this is time consuming, and takes longer, can cause errors blah blah blah, you get the idea, so instead just copy the apk to your SD card and use a root browser to copy it​
**********​
Once the custom framework-res.apk is copied, simply paste it in the system>framework>HERE of your phone, accept the overwrite, your phone will immediately reboot and this is okay, it will then boot up, and your lockscreen ring will change :3​
**********​
Example of the kinds of rings you can have and what they look like on my Device ​
However i only have three, because that's all i took screenies of, the first two are ones that wernt resized, but the third one is :3 i think the resized are MDPI so better off choosing the HDPI ones which are outside the Resized Folder
