Sorry if this has been asked before, I've searched and only found bits and pieces so far. Is there a lockscreen tutorial that can layout in noob terms how to edit the individual pieces? Or possibly a program where I can move the lock button and its text/call notifications visually, like how cookie's home tab can customize every element of the today screen?
I want to make my own okudagram lockscreen and I can't keep designing the look without having a good place for all the buttons and a way to have the clock be only the numbers. I'm good in the artsy way and have tons of lcars reference but I'm lacking in how to read code.
Could the slider move vertically or does it have to be horizontal? Could there be a trek beep when the lcar buttons are pressed?

The lockscreen file is not that huge, yet still it's easy to mess up if one doesn't now what to do exactly...

I'd like a mix of the HD Mini Lockscreen and original slider/iPhone.
Or, in other words, exactly the Mini lockscreen but with a side-to-side-slider.
I dont want any other features. No clock, no appointments, nothing else.
Tips, anyone?
Reason for this is that when I use the original leather pouch, I have noticed that ever since I installed the Mini lockscreen, I often accidentally unlock the device when I put the phone in the pouch. Not good.

Have you tried S2U2? Very customisable to show/hide what you want.

Yes I have, but it is far to many features for me. If I could only have the slider, without scrolling text, without all the incoming call features, without having to manually delete/make images transparent to get rid of them - then it would be close to perfect. But for now it is to hard to make it clean.
I ended up tweaking my own.
Standard Lockscreen, slider in the middle (portrait) and in original position (landscape). No appointments, no clock.
In the attached .cab for anyone's use
if you make one with clock for me it'd be great . i also like it clean but i need the clock at the bottom cuz i don't wear a watch and i use the stock sheath. i like to just pull the phone out a bit to see the clock. without it i'll have to pull the whole phone out and unlock it to see the time.
cookies home tab!!! manila slider option and customise the home screen to be blank or watever u want
Hi Everyone -
First off, I apologize if this is the wrong place for this message. If so please feel free to move it, mods
I own a Samsung Continuum. My wife is absolutely in love with the ticker. A couple days ago (while flying out for vacation!) she asked me if there were any widgets that function like the ticker, or if I could create one for her.
So I got thinking and I think it might make for a pretty useful widget. However, there are already a lot of "show sms/calendar/etc.." widgets out there, does the world really need another?. Also, there are things that the ticker on the Continuum can do that a widget can't, mainly Gestures.
Knowing all that, I still think an "information ticker" widget would be rather useful. Here's what I'm thinking -
Show events on the home screen (SMS, Email, low battery, etc) in a ticker like display (ie: every X seconds the ticker moves on to next item).
Group "like" items so you don't end up with 100 ticker items, meaning there is one view for SMS that can be navigated (maybe up/down arrows?)
Provide next/back buttons for navigating the different ticker items (since we can't have gestures in widgets)
Have default view which shows just a snap shot of events (how many SMS, etc), much of the view on the Continuum.
Provide a way for others to plug into the ticker and provide their own notification/views
I hide the notification bar on my home screen (LauncherPro). I would love to build the widget in a way that it can *almost* replace the notification bar. Since you can't actually intercept the notifications there is a limit to what can be done.
So that's what I'm thinking. I'm sure there's a bunch of other stuff that I could/should add to it. However I don't want to start building it out if there wouldn't be interest in something like this. And that's why I'm here, would you find a widget like this useful? If so, what would you like to see in it?
Many thanks in advance!
That's a great idea - I would prefer a NYSE/NASDAQ style ticker to the item-by-item widget you describe. Battery life is a big concern however... I had a similar idea to yours a few months back, but the battery life thing gave me pause.
But what have you got to lose? Code away, have fun and learn something in the process... do it before I outright steal the idea from you!
hey,

are great!!! I am particularly, interested in the last one... replacing the notification bar with the ticker... I mean half the time i dont get notification so why not have the ticker instead... thts brilliant!!!
So when are you planning on putting the recommendations to action???? would be a revolutionary
cheers,

Hey guys,
I have some mod ideas that would be really nice.
1) A menu button remap that by longpressing it, a screenshot would be taken
2)Adding a few shortcuts to the very top of the pull down menu. By very top I mean the area where the time and date are. For example how when you press the date it takes you to the calendar, being able to add custom shortcuts to the same area would be nice.
If this question is confusing, let me know and I can give some screenshots of where I'm talking about.
3)This one only applies to 4.2 roms. Add custom tiles to the quicksetting screen. For example; when I pull down the notification bar it only opens to quicksettings when there are no notifications. Is there a way to add a notification tile to the screen that once clicked, it then opens up all the notifications.
These are just some thoughts I had while messing around with Carbon ROM last night. These mods might be completely absurd, or other people might like them too. I'm just spitballing some ideas.
Thank you devs for all your awesomely hard work on cool new tweaks!
(first of all: I am sorry for any incorrect words/language, I'm still learning english, I read the rules and tried putting this thread into the correct topic, I also considered putting it into > Android Development and Hacking > Android Themes > as a [Q]uestion, but rather put here)
So I was about to make some customization to my htc, currently I'm just testing the possibilites in nova launcher + widgetlocker because I'm not in the situation where I can have my phone installed a new rom. Since I was testing widgetlocker I noticed there is almost no choices regarding the lockscreen out animation to the homescreen. Or at least what I wan't is really different than the few avalible.
My idea is to set up the lockscreen with all the different widgets (uccw/zooper) showing important stuff + a slider. Then icons would be on homescreen. I would use the same high res picture for the lockscreen as for the homescreen. Only just, for the homescreen I would use a blured one, so icons stand out more, a little cleaner.
[Q]: Is there any way possibly changing the widgetlockers animation changing from lockscreen to homescreen, with a custom one?
[Q]: If so, how can one make such an animation, import it into widget locker and then use it too?
[Q]: Can I achieve such a slider that would show now lines of sliding/way of unlocking, just slide my finger through the screen from one side to the other and the whole lockerscreen would just go away, and the homescreen would slide in (like scrolling on pages of the homescreen)?
I want to make the same effect as the nova launcher prime has (which I do not own yet, so I don't know tha proper name of the scrolling effect), called Wipe (maybe), it has a solid line between the pages of the homescreen, so when you slide the icons of the previous page would go away in a line changing up to the next page's icons, lake the previous page was hidden by the next page sliding above it. I would like this effect because it would make a transition effect of the lockscreen clear high res wallpaper blurring, geting to the point where you can't see what's on the picture. (of course I don't want a solid blurring effect, the simple homescreen sliding over the lockerscreen would be the greatest, so apps, and the original wallpaper would go away in a clear line).
I may have some other question regarding this animation depending on answers
For now, I thank you all for any answers or help in the future. I see it's a rather special question regarding that won't be too many people who want to make custom animation for the lockscreen (or at least the lack of google hits on the topic would point that way )
Few gripes with the look and feel of Honor 7x.
1) I can't seem to change the notification panel background feom black to transparent without rooting. Is there a solution?
2) Spotify controls on lockscreen does not appear like the stock music control where there is a big album cover. Any fix?
3) Can the recents page be changed to a different look? Am alright with the arrangement, just would like to make the cards rounded or in the same effect?
4) Notifications would also look better if I can change them into Oreo-styled box-shaped notifications with color shading.
Sorry for the amateur questions but I am trying to tweak this phone to the smallest of detail if possible. Again, I reiterate that I am unrooted and would not like to root. On nova launcher. Don't know how to share images on xda otherwise I would send some screenshots. Again, sorry for being a noob, and thank you for all the suggestions.
