Guide
Firstly you need a few apps to do this they are-
-Widget Locker(is a paid app on the play store)
-uccw(you can find from play store)
- my backup file (find here: http://t.co/ttGe5Kl6) (this is a backup file only and not widget locker)
clock jb+(don't need if you are on jellybean!)(again a paid app)
Steps:
1. extract the contents of the folder Ubuntu(from the backup zip) on to the root of our SD card
2.after you have installed all these apps open widget locker >settings>
And click on backups&restores and then restore my backup.
3.after doing this go to advanced settings of widget Locker and disable root helper setting.
4.then enable widget locker
5.your lock screen would be like Ubuntu
6.then for the lockscreen clock,long press on empty part of lockscreen and select widgets and add the clock jb+ widget app that you downloaded.......place it where you want to.
7. there would be a widget in the center of the lockscreen saying 'touch to recover widget', delete that one!
8. voila you have an Ubuntu lockscreen!
The widget you deleted was for showing you your unread messages,...... I will add that part later on some time.As you might have guessed this guide was written in very less time so aloha by then

Nice . . .
just the way i like it

Every single time I install WidgetLocker Lockscreen I lose multi-touch privileges... I mean that when you hold a button on the screen then tap anywhere on the screen while still holding down the button gets depressed and the screen goes unresponsive for 2 seconds. It always happens in Super Hexagon, and happens after about 30 minutes of having it installed. I went to dev options and checked "Show pointer location" and when I am moving around the homescreen, when I am scrolling then I tap the screen while still scrolling, the lines reset and start again :crying:
It's a shame because I REALLY LOVE this lockscreen theme, and the app. It's an app I always recommend to everyone. Any alternatives OP?

Strange thing is that a reflash or a different rom doesn't fix it. Nameless and revolution, even all stock sense has this problem. Maybe it's a problem with the touchscreen?

You should donate to him whenever he's done with the lock screen.

The Samsung Music player is extremely sexy, integrated with the notification bar, has a great ui, and a 5.1 channel surround sound virtualizer.
Oh wow. Then I think I will join the brigade
installed it, so far so good, love it. thank you
Great post everything working great. Hope the rendering of the google search widget gets fix as I tend to use that a lot. Just a recomendation to others who are going to install this. After backing up and removing the original touchwiz.apk make sure you reboot your device if you do not you will get constent FC.

[Q] How To Add Shortcut on the Bottom Row of Homescreen

Accidentally when I replace original MMS.apk with modified from padlad, I have lost message shortcut on the bottom row of homescreen. You can see it on the attachment.

Thank you for your help.

Thank you very much, Dr. Ketan!
I want to replace the dialer icon in the bottom row with dialer One.
I am unable to drag anything to bottom row.
How to do this?
Using rooted India ICS Note
Read above.

In my opinion Use Nova launcher. So much possibility to customize it for your test. You can put up-to 15 apps on scroleble bottom dock. TW is good but i never use it because missing auto rotate feature. In nova launcher you can use your phone in landscape too. try Nova launcher I bet you will never use TW again.
Cheers....
(If you like Nova launcher dont forgate to press thanks button)

I could not figure out the instructions that's why I asked again. I press option and then press edit.what next?

I am on the TW launcher(default Samsung note launcher).
It does not allow dragging anything to the bottom(fixed) row.
I tried Nova launcher too, but did not like it. Guess, the only solution is to go try some other launchers.
They require root permission, but no issues, I am already rooted.
Will a launcher slow down the system, or its sort of a replacement to TW launcher?
I tried Launcher Pro, as well as Apex. Did not like them. The widget list available in Touchwiz(like SPlanner) do not show up at all on third party launchers.
Looks like I will stick to my default TW!
I have created video guide will update it when i m in office, just leave a pm to me if i forget.

Can I increase number of home screen using Timescape manager?

Hi,
I have a Xperia TL and just flashed LT30p. I really like the Sony default home manager, but one issue I have is that I can't have more than 5 home screens.
Since home screen is the only place I can create folders to organize different apps, plus some widget I'd like to load, 5 home screen really isn't enough.
Is there a way to add number of home screen?
P.S. I have not rooted my phone and am not planning to at the moment, so it would need to be non-root solution.

Non root option means no sony homescreen with more than 5 homescreens.
You can add a third party launcher but you wont be able to run sony apps like timescape as a widget on them
Root option you can.
You can use the gx launcher mod from themes and apps, it lets you add up to 11 homescreens

Thanks for the prompt response. That is unfortunate Sony didn't make an option to increase # of screen like other launchers. I wonder if I can extract the apk from system image and tweak some configuration files to get there...
Sent from my LT30p using xda app-developers app
Yes, you can. Or you could try putting the gx homescreen mood files into an .ftf file and flashing that. I say try as I dont know if it will work.
There is a way of pulling, decompiling, editing, recompiling and pushing the frameworkres and systemUI apk's but it can not be done from the phone without root, you will need to mess with the .ftf file and flash it in flashtool. But that may break the signatures....
Sent from my LT30p using xda premium
EDIT: Not sure what you mean by timescape manager..
I probably use the wrong terminology here... I mean the home launcher comes with Xperia.
Also, I searched on the internet and found some mod apk which has more screens, but there was no instructions how to do it myself. Can you please point me to the instruction page if there is any?

[Q] Application Shortcuts within Dock

Anyone know how to place an application shortcut like a whatsapp contact into the dock/launcher bar? I was able to do this in stock jelly bean, but can't seem to figure this out in sense 5.

always 2 ways to do this on Android;
press and hold (on home screen and move to dock / on icon from app drawer)
click setting and choose edit
:good:
The problem is that when long pressing shortcuts from the home screen, the dock disappears making it impossible to move the app shortcut into the dock.

I understand an app can be added to the dock from the drawer, but that's not what I'm trying to do. I'm trying to add a app shortcut (i.e. a direct contact) to the dock. For whatever reason, Sense treats these shortcuts like widgets, restricting them from being added to the dock. This is frustrating as I was able to do this in stock jelly bean.
You need to go to the app drawer and then pull the application you wanna replace from the dock to the drawer. Once you have done that you will have an empty space to add the app you want to add to the dock.

Replace lock screen short cut icons?

Hi guys,
Is there a way to replace the icons used for short cuts on the sense 5 lock screen? Im using nova launcher with a custom icon pack and would LOVE the icons on the lock screen to match.
I would use a custom lock screen, but all the ones I've come across don't allow you to place a lock screen widget like NILS on the lock screen.
Thanks,
J

If you're rooted you can just swap out the icons in the apk's to the ones you want ... Make sure you open the apk with something like 7zip and drag in your new icons, that way you won't have to decompile the apk.
Is it possible without root?
I've seem some lock screen apps, but don't know how good they are.
There is an app in the play store that allows you to change your icons without rooting but I can't remember the name ... I've never used it so I couldn't vouch for it changing them on the lockscreen but I don't see why it wouldn't.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jy.iconchanger.ad&hl=en ... There's that app but I have no idea whether it would show icon changes on the lockscreen awsell, sorry.
This worked perfectly. I had to change the icons and then set them before activating nova launcher.

Glad the app worked for you guys
