Stock ICS - How to change lockscreen - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Just upgraded to the just released ICS for the Galaxy Note. First thing I did was install Apex Launcher and delete touchwiz Launcher. I really like the results, but have a question.
Is there a way to replace the TW lockscreen with the Stock ICS lockscreen?

Nope, not without a hack (like jkay mod)
Install WidgetLocker, it has a stock ICS lockscreen theme

Yeah, I tried WL... It's nice, but kinda laggy at times. Was hoping to do a full replacement.

u can by editting the framework files your self...... as far as i remember its in framework-res file unzip get the png and replace it you can;t repack but w!nrar does open it and allows update if you set extention as ZIP

[Q] AOSP icons?

I absolutely hate the Galaxy S Icons. is there ANY way to get the icons?
I'm using Perception Build 7.
EDIT: I should add, I know I can use ADW Launcher but I hate the update, and I hate what the creator of the AOSP theme did to the theme.. I just want the icons so I can use Launcher pro. I prefer the 3D app drawer.
Find a stock Nexus One ROM (like FRG83), pull the AOSP icons out of the system apks. Unzip the ROM package you're using and drop the AOSP icons in the system apks. Overwrite the system apks on your phone with the updated ones. Don't think there's really a quick way to do it.

yeah that sounds like a long process. But I'M WILLING TO DO IT, IF IT GETS RID OF THE GALAXY S ICONS!
My ROM has them out of the box if you're unwilling to change them all manually.

where does one find the AOSP icons in the system apks?
It's usually in drawable-hdpi.
What I done was downloaded the Morph- "Nero Blue AOSP" or "Vanilla Android" from the Vibrant themes/apps section... just use it for replacing app icons only, apply each one seperate, don't run it as a batch or it will install the included framework-res which will probley screw up some stuff..it worked great for me, replaced all icons to AOSP icons..

[Q] Enable puzzle lockscreen on stock de-odexed rom

I'm running a de-odexed ZSJPJ rom (Ramad's). It seems that the only way to get the puzzle piece lockscreen is to flash a theme that has the 4 lockscreen settings. I don't really want to flash a theme especially since a lot of these are based on older frameworks and I just want the lockscreen.
If anyone can point me to a comprehensive how-to, that will be fine. Thanks in advance.
yeah you need to change the android.policy.odex in the system\framework\ folders.
You can just take the file from a theme that has it and use root explorer to transfer it to your phone.
or you can just use the StockPlus082percentageFF theme which is a stock theme with all the current lock screens.
Link for stock theme with 5 lockscreens: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=952579
I've seen Stockmod Plus, but I think he uses an older framework. ZSJPJ rom has some issues from what I've read. Anyway, thanks. I'll google android.policy.odex and see where it leads.

yeah but you can just take the android.policy.odex file from it and install it separately. just replace the one file with the one you have on your phone.

deodexing is getting rid of the ".odex" files u can find in /system/app and system/framework.
u can check them through a file manager which grants root access like root explorer.
for deodexing, u can follow this tutorial of mine:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1405689
the main use of deodexing is that u can apply themes and also free some memory.
the deodexing is fairly simple. make sure u follow the steps

If you are talking about CM7, you have an awesome ICS theme in xda called "ICS CM7 v1.6" or something like that. I guess that if achyut is using NOVA, it will be hard making a CM7 theme. Besides, it's a lot of work what has been done for the ICS I told you.

First of all, I think you "should" have themed my notification bar toggles because they don't look like the rest of theme at all.
Secondly, as far as I know the theme should be able to be flashed in odexed ROMs too! You can put deodexed files in odexed ROM. Actually, many ROMs are odexed except the apk's that are for theming.
So I don't think this can't be flashed in odexed ROM, unless you have a concrete reason.

firstly,i'd thank u fr commenting on my theme ....this is my first theme and it is always good to hear form a pro ...the fact that i did not change your toggles is because I PERSONALLY love the WP7 look....
and of the deodexed flashing, i tried flashing it on odexed NOVA and bricked my phone 2/3 times....so, thought it might be better of to apply this to the deodexed ROM because my deodexed NOVA got themed at one go.

That's strange I will take a look to your files to see if something is clearly doing that in odexed Roms. But if it bricked yours, it's good you warned of it.

I'd like to try an ICS theme too for Nova rom, but first of all I'd like to understand why I cannot install themes using terminal, su, nova, theme chooser...
If I choose one of the theme it says "You need internet access" but in fact I'm connected.
I really don't like the default wp7 theme of the Nova v.8 and I was trying to change it with the gingerbread theme...
Anyone have same issue?
Thanx a lot.

Please flash Gingerbread theme (or whichever you want) manually from recovery (.zip to sd, go to recovery->flash from sdcard, flash it. No wipes or anything)
Nova theme chooser seems to stopeed working some time ago. Many people reported the same problem. Don't rely on theme chooser anymore.
PS: Sorry for the offtopic Achyut. Just answering his problem.

Thanx Antonio, where can I find gingerbread or other zipped theme for nova?
Theme maybe working in odexed too
Here is a version of the theme that could work in odexed NOVA too.
There is a step between NOVA versions below v3 and above v3-4 Most probably Achyut made this theme with a greater version than v3, so this probably won't work in below versions of NOVA.
I copy the disclaimer:

[Q] Cm7 status bar mod

Hi. I wanna ask if is it possible to change the clock font on the statusbar cm7. And I'm currently on squadzone cm7 RC5.7. I have a question. Is it the framework problem or something's else cause when I use tickle my android, the decompile and the recompile was sucess. And when I push it in I got a bootloop. Can anyone help me?
Well the easiest way to change font is to rename your desired font to the one used by the clock (mostly "Clockopia") and replace it by pushing to System/fonts and set permissions

If you have a bootloop, that's because you've got something wrong with your framework-res.apk. I'm guessing that you recompiled it but didn't prepare it. You have to prepare system files or they just won't work.
That said, decompiling files isn't the way to change your clock font. Tickle My Android does have an option for changing the clock font in the modifying menu, although I can't guarantee that it'll work on your CM7. If it doesn't, the best way is to look in /system/fonts and start replacing fonts. Hopefully, the font you need will have a fairly obvious name..

I did prepare system files but sometimes when I wanted to push it in, it says write only file system. How can I change it? And for the clock I've changed clokopia and one more I guess it's called honeycombAndroidClock.tff but all they change was only the lockscreen clock

Okay. I've downloaded rom toolbox pro and I tried to change my batt icon to ics with percentage. When I done install nothing happens. After a reboot, still nothing happens. Is this the right way to download it?

For changing battery and stuff its easier to use UOT Kitchen
I know uot kitchen is the best but I'm already on a ics rom. All I want is to change the batt icon. When I upload the framework and systemUI I got shtf file. All I can do is uploading the theme chooser theme. Unless I could find a theme chooser theme which it is pure and not modded before.

Hmm.. Tell you what, if you can share your files on the Tickle My Android thread, I can make this mod for you.
I can even take a look at changing your clock font. I'll just need to know what fonts you have in your Rom.

it's possible... i use winrar to open up apk's.... open up Nova via winrar and check the drawable-hdpi folder... you will need hdpi size pngs and replace them with the one's in the folder thats how you will change the UI look of it
