lockscreen question... - myTouch 3G, Magic Android Development

What's the secret to getting a transparent lockscreen? I have tried pushing a png and even a renamed extension jpg. Still no transparency. Could someone help me out?

Themers, where are the images?

If I wanted to change the dialer image, where is it? If I wanted to change the icons, where are they?
The dialer images are in phone.apk and contacts.apk. the second question is kind of vague. Status bar icons are in framework-res.apk. individual app icons are located in their respective .apk's.

[Q] fission 2.4.3 gingerbread theme lockscreen slider fix

Hello, im trying to use a gingerbread theme for fission 2.4.3. However, for some reason, the insides of the silence sliders are completely transparent and do not have the dark transparent gray of the other sliders.
I've edited the .png files and tried recompiling the theme many times, but when i get to the lockscreen the slider just doesnt move. I just cant seem to get the 9-patch process right.
In other words, i want to use the attached pngs named edit1 and edit2 in place of the original sliders, which are also attached.
any help is appreciated, thanks!

How are you trying to edit the sliders? Those are .9.png files, they need to be edited different than normal .png files, as .9.png files are stretchable....
I use apkmanger 4.9 for extracting/signing/compiling etc.... if I'm only editing .png files or replacing(not editing) .9.png files, I use Simple Tasks section...
If I'm going to edit .9.png files, I use the Advanced Task sections, as they have to be Decompiled and Compiled... you will see a difference in the .9.png files when you do a regular extract and decompile, it needs those black borders/dots to make them work right... I don't get all fancy with my editing, so I use either gimp or paint.net to edit the .png/.9.png files...
I attached the sliders that you are wanting to use.. give those a try.. since you're only replacing the .9.png and not doing any editing, you should just be able to extract the .apk, and replace the sliders....
Good luck...

[Q] Where are the lockscreen animations located?

I'm trying to add the GB "on" lockscreen animation to my phone. I had it on my CM7 ROM for my old OG Droid and I liked it a lot.
I was able to decompile my framework-res.apk for my Atrix 2 and compare it to the old CM7 ROM for my droid I had lying around which had the screen on animation. Just to see the difference.
I assumed the lockscreen animations would be in the "anim" folder, namely the xml files titled lockscreen exit and lockscreen enter.
However to my surprise the xml docs were identical for both phones. Word for word. Even though the CM7 had the "on" lockscreen animation.
Am I just looking in the wrong folder/area?
Help would be awesome!
Eh maybe you can use this kitchen?

Uh... thanks for the link! But it looks as though you can edit how the lockscreen looks through here, but cannot edit the animation.
If someone just knows the proper xml files, or where the animations are located, I can edit them from there.

[Q] Transparent Lockscreen Xperia Stock Lockscreen

I have tried to make the stock lockscreen on the Z1 transparent. I thought it may be as easy as changing the default wallpaper in the XperiaLockScreen.apk to a transparent .png however it seems that the app will only let you choose a .jpg (Which we know does not support transparency)
So I decompiled the app to see the xml files but I cant find anywhere where it forces the background to be a .jpg.
I tried editing a few hex colour choices to make the first 2 digits from 00 to FF to force 100% transparency but nothing changed.
Can anyone point me in the right directions please.
Attached is the .apk and the framework-res

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/24614808/framework-res.apk
Did you manage to do that? I have tried mods from older Xperia phones (whose APK name is UxpNxtLockScreen.apk) and it didn't work.
