A few questions.. - HTC Desire C

First question, (I hope I'm posting this in the right place) is there a way to rip the clock from the lock screen, or does anyone know a tutorial I can look at to find out?
Second, where is the current wallpaper stored in the system.
And lastly, I want to change the colour of the pull ring on the lockscreen. Does anyone know how or where I'd find a tut?
Thanks, keh_tolo

From what i know The lockscreen is an app on its own. So changing that would require you searching up advanced themeing i think the apk was htclockscreen.apk or something but be carefull with it.
As to the wallpapers they are an apk too lol. You need to pull it from the phone, insert/remove the ones you want and then push it back again with adb.
Or you could try QuickPic which grants you the ability to use any picture as your Background, asuming thats what you want.
And for the clock i have no clue.

Livewallpaper on lockscreen?

Hello people, I've had my Aria for about 2 weeks now and have been trying all of the great apps and tweeks out there along with the latest cm6-liberty-A011-signed. The question I have now is, is it possible to have a live wallpaper on the lock screen? I've searched but just cant seem to find any info on this topic. If I've asked this question in the wrong place, please forgive me and delete or let me know where to post it to get some help.
Thanx,
tat
If your using cm6 should have live wallpapers you can choose from that'll show up on the lock screen.

Text Icons

Hello all,
As a new user I'm apparently not allowed to post links at all until I'm verified. So that means you'll have to a little leg work to find some things if you're interested.
This is my customized phone. I used the same background in my blog; The icons I made in a roundabout way—Bobbyperux over at Deviantart, made a pretty all inclusive tutorial on how to make them. It even had a video. You'll need to know something about Photoshop and have a tiny bit of patience. I changed the font to futura and the color to white. Except for the android market, ha. Little color never hurt anyone. The phone is rooted, non-market apps are enabled, and I can sync to my itunes with ease. Mac user.
Anywho give it a whirl--the icon pack is called up to date icons.
Id like to change my icon set too. Do you have to be using launcherpro or can u change them on the stock TW?
Thx.

The news widget is called buzz box-- its pretty nifty. You can choose from a ton of sources within the actual widget and it updates the news all day. I don't know how it effects battery life, but my captivate seems to be dealing with it just fine.

Yes, its LauncherPro. On the home screen I used Folder Organizer, as LauncherPro could can only change dock icons.

[Q] HTC Hero Sprint Icon Question

Is it possible to change icons? If so, how?
My phone is rooted, and using the stock rom it came with from Sprint.
Firmware: 2.1-update1
Software: 2.27.651.5
Thanks for the help!
If you use launcher pro from the market as your launcher you can change the icons and the name too...
Long press on a blank space and add the app you want...tap on its picture to load your gallery and choose whatever icon you would like...there are plenty to download...

Hm.. That's a quick way, thanks Vandelay007. Do you happen to know a way without using Launcher Pro though? Oddly enough, I like the default launcher.

Download Desktop Visualizer from the Market. Allows you to put custom icon shortcuts anywhere on your desktop for just about anything. You can't change any of the taskbar or menu icons, but it does allow you to change/customize any icons you put on your desktop home screens.

I'll definitely use this way next time though. You can't imagine how long it takes a "n00b" to find the Folder shortcut icon.
Thank you everyone for your help.

Looks like he did... I have to say, if this guy describes himself as a noob, and he managed to search and figure out how to theme without needing to aska lot of questions, I shudder to think what we have to call the people who not only don't know what they're talking about, but also can't search for it...
You can't believe how happy I am to see search work that well. It kind of scares me how happy I am.

Haha, thanks for the compliment! It really wasn't that hard to be honest. Just resize the png, rename it, and find where to put it. Once you figure out that you can open .apk files with 7zip, the rest is a cake walk!
The problem with most n00bs is that they don't want to get their hands dirty... and the laziness! Haha.

[LauncherPro Docks] Blue, Green, Red, come check em out!

Hey guys! I've been around here for a while lurkin on my older phones, but since I got the epic I'm finally coming around to posting. Anyhow, I was bored tonight and no overtime came up this weekend so I made up some docks real quick, since mine was getting stale after a month or two. Hope you guys like em. I'm not a photoshop perfectionist so a few flaws may be present. When they are on the phone with their 75ish % Transparency most flaws disappear anyways. When I briefly checked them all, at a glance they all looked fine. So let me know if anythings messed up in any of them, I just run the blue now myself.
Kinda loosely based on the dreamlyfe docks with the side app drawer, but much wider so the tallmin icons fit in them nicely. In fact they were designed with those icons in mind. Let me know what ya think. Feel free to rape them to peices and create your own and re-post em or whatever
Edit: All have 74% Opaque (26% Transparency) for a nice look, and resized to work well with Portrait/Landscape. Tallmin icons will now be readable in either orientation. Wow didnt realize how ugly it was before fixed.
Can u do one with orange plz? Good job by the way!

sure can
Sure I can, later this evening after work. I mostly just change colors with color range select and color change tool so it makes it pretty easy. If anyone else wants a specific color let me know and ill make it. Just figured these 3 were most popular.
On a side note, if anyone wants the non transparent version of any of them just PM me and ill send it your way. Cheers!
Thank u so much!

I guess I am a complete noob lol, how would I install the dock image? I have no clue and I didnt see any option to do it in the LauncherPro settings. Maybe I missed it or I need to put the file somewhere specific?
Preferences => appearance settings => dock background (let's you choose from your photo gallery)

Thanks.... I looked through the menus twice and totally missed that one lol.
Uhhh I have launcher pro...where are the links so I can add this to my Epic 4G...and how do I install it once I have them?...great I Idea by the way...and the black dock with white edges for a black and white themed ROM like Baked Snack would be cool...?

I only know how to DL onto a PC and then xfer to the SD Card. Right click on the image(dock that you want to DL) from the OP and select save as... , then copy the image/file to your phone/SD Card. Now while at the homescreen in LP hit the menu key>preference>appearance settings>dock background>custom>and then you should be able to scroll to the image in the gallery that it brings up

How to change Rosie NavBar icons ?

Is it any way to do this ?
I don't have to use home replacement or to make new theme - just to change app icons on Sense 5 Rosie drawer
You have to open your app drawer and you can drag and drop from there
