guide for lockscreens

i was wondering if there's any guides available on how to make custom lock screens. i can't seem to find anything on google regarding it. i saw some of the nice ones noj created and it inspired me to make a few of my own too, but i have no idea where to start.

I took the lame developer route. I just used winrar to open up an already created lockscreen.zip and just replaced the lockscreen image with my own. Flashed just fine.

jeez ajaholic, have you tried using something called "google" and other search options available?

thanks guys!

ajaholic said:
thanks for the help tatonka, but this guide seems to be pretty basic it's basically just says to do the developer route kbizzle was talking about, which is alright but severely limits the amount of customization you can do. for example you cant change the size of lock screen image or the text. there is a an xml file inside the apk that i believe controls those things, but when i open it up in notepad its in a compiled format not regular text and i can't edit it. does anyone how to edit the xml file?

Exactly. It is basic, that was the point of me writing it. So that others could easily create basic custom lockscreens and share with the communities out there. If you are looking for something more elaborate, I would search these forums. But, to save you some time, here are 3 links I have found in my searching that describe how to change time color, etc.

[Request] Zune Font for the HD2

I am using Dutty's HG V1.2 WM6.5 (not 6.5.x)ROM.
May I request a cab for the following ZUNE HD font:
http://www.esnips.com/nsdoc/a918f708-6305-40fe-b567-34175c6144da/?action=forceDL
When unzipped, there will be 4 different fonts. Please make the font cab using the Zegoe Light UI (File name is "ZegoeLight-U").
I really enjoy the simplicity and cleanliness of the ZUNE HD font.
Thank you in advanced.

Dude, just close up your eyes. We got now 3 different font-threads right here in this section - all to find on the most recent pages. And your Zune-font has been done not only once

I know it has. And I've seen the requested zune post/threads as well. The problem is that the .cabs for those fonts are nowhere to be found after the posts.
If you can enlight me to those cab files, I'd greatly appreciate it. I've already did my homework for a few days now and found no solution (even in the blackstone forum).

New clock designs?

Hi all,
Can anyone point me in the direction of some new clock designs that I can download onto my HTC HD2? I've looked through the forum but I'm struggling to find any.
Thanks.

You don't specify what kind of clocks you are looking for. But if you are interested in some alternative 'digital' clocks (i.e. the ones that 'flip'), I've posted a whole lot on this thread.

They are all the same style (a sort of glass effect), but in loads of different colours - see the screenshots)

[REQ] Can someone please make these slider sets

These are some of the best slider icons I have seen yet. Boy has some serious skills.
I already asked him if I could share it on this board and he gave me the green light.
Anyoune up for the challenge?
Link to icon sets: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=437405

That would be good if someone could or what would be even better if there was a how to anywhere as I have a set of glass icons I'd love to try but have no idea where to start and HDwall doesn't work for changing the slider icons.

Ditto.
I have no clue where to begin.

guys, i will do those sliders for you this weekend if nobody else does in the mean time.
a few obs:
- i only do what i find, i don't have time to search for eg. large preview icons
- if you want more you'ld better start searching
- i suggest to try my slider first to see if you have any issues - see my signature
cheers,
antaed

Thanks antaed for the interest.
Hope you can swing it.

Buuf Slider here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=6522045&postcount=20

This is the icon set I was hoping to do something with: http://icons.mysitemyway.com/category/3d-transparent-glass-icons If you want me to I can find the individual icons and zip them up for you as they're spread across a few sets on that page. I know that there is at least one icon for each tab that can be used as I put a different set together but changed my mind on the theme last minute.
Would love to learn how to do this because there's various sets on that site that look pretty good that I could play with depending on the theme I decide on.
antaed I've used your slider so know it works very well, would love it if you could work your magic on this glass slider

Hi redzepplun, i think there was misunderstanding I did not mean these slider icons, i meant 'way out there' ones, which I tried and they did not look good. they are quite small. But the ones you are referring on this thread (made by 12aon) are really nice and would fit quite well.

Hi mate I've attached the icons, they're all 512 x 512 I hope this is ok as that's the size they came off the website as. That's perfect to use the same as the large previews too. I hope they look as good as I think they will. Thanks

CHT 1.8 Manila File Names & Transparent Files attached

Hello,
I wonder if anyone is able to/wants to help me?
I am looking for confirmation of the manila file names for CHT 1.8... (I have been browsing the forum but can only find cabs and not the file names for this)
I have been looking through the files by using cfc-gui but I can’t confidently identify the right files!!
I just want to personalise my own files, initially to achieve a transparent home screen, but ongoing to something else.
The clock files are identified on the CHT thread, but not the bars/panels.
I think I have identified the following files (for not-pressed bars), but on modifying them and loading them onto the phone (in the Windows folder, and then restarting manila, and also soft resetting) they don’t all seem to change as I expected.
These ones do work:
0B7F6995_manila = appointment expand/pull-down grip
30D807DA_manila = thin bar with rounded corners to ‘finish’ lower appointment
0d61c97c_manila = date bar
740dc76b_manila = alarm bar
These ones don’t work:
43A0289_manila = appointment list bar
77BAF4F0_manila = notifications full bar
(if these aren’t what I think they are, then what have I changed by modding these files??!!)
I can see from various mods on this forum that people are able to change the files I want to work with, so I must just be playing with the wrong files.
Any help would be good, and it’ll save me time by further searching many pages of the forum and struggling to identify the files in the Windows folder (which is proving very difficult it seems).
Thank you.
it would be good if there was a manila library on here somewhere - cfc-gui is a really good tool, but it's just not doing a proper job for me on this occasion!!!
PS: I have current version 1.66 standard UK ROM on HD2, non-network specific. My CHT 1.8 is working fine, no issues, I just want to mod it a bit!

Agree with the above would be good if there was a list available as took me ages just to find the default cover art for music and couldn't find the mini music player background. I'm using cfc-gui as well and there's as many/if not more files under unknown as there are with headers which makes it really difficult. I've just been going through them 1 by 1 and I'm going to try edit a few on the weekend so will let you know what I find.

Cheers - any help on this would be appreciated. There are loads of mods for this already, but not many sharing info!!
I'll keep on looking...
In the meantime, if anyone else can assist - much appreciated it will be!

If anyone is interested, I found what I was looking for:
10376502_manila = notifications bar
438A0283_manila = appointments bar
I've attached all of these files as transparent in the .zip below. The only one that isn't fully transparent is the pull-down grip which I have added little grip dots to it so you know where it is, otherwise transparent.
** Back-up original files from the Windows folder before overwriting! **

the clock white background remains white, Any updates of others ?
nice work, i liked it, when ever I flash a new rom I was installing transparencies.. not anymore...
I hope you keep up with this threat...

can you show a picture of this please!!

many people will be much help if you put screenshot..if you ask someone's help try to help someone also and someone will apreciate yours

no one i assume...
why dont you share these info with them ...

Is something being requested in the posts above?
I can't quite work out what it is - is it a transparent clock? - if so, which sort?
Aren't there plenty of clocks for CHT on XDA already, do they not work?

I would like to help but I am using Dusk ROM with Cookie cooked in to it and skinned by G10 so I think they are not the ones you want.
Also a hard reset is always a good reason to try another ROM

Depending on which files you edited..... you might be able to get them back by installing/uninstalling/reinstalling CHT..... maybe.....
Which particular files do you need...??
if by chance I have them backed up Ill post them for you... I dont have that many though....

There is a link in the FAQ section of the CHT thread's main post from Co0kie, for transparencies and some graphics restore cabs.
That should help answer some of your questions.
If you have any other questions still after looking at those cabs and files, let me know.
You can go directly to that thread to the first post where the link is, by clicking the CHT banner in my sig., or clicking the link above will take you there directly.

thanks for the responce guys! i'm actually not sure what manilla files they are lol, i just know there the ones which make the calendar and call history transparent. i've tried re-installing CHT but transparency is still there, it wasnt a cab see. i overwritten the original files with zip file on page one. but would like the glass panel look which dinik created. installing dinik theme the transparent calendar/call history is still there. someone who backed up the manila files before installing that zip file could help... were are they!! lol

I have attached the original files that you highlighted a couple of posts above...
in the zip file are the original files if you want to drop them in manually, or a cab file for if you want to do it the easy way - all it does is place the two manila files in the windows folder, and it's not going to appear in the applications list either (you can't 'uninstall it'), its a one-way cab.

Thanks for all your help guys but looks like its not to be. they were the right manila files but after getting rid of the transparency`s and installing diniks theme everything has the glass panels but calender/call history. maybe the rom i`m using is affecting the theme (cleanex rom). but again thanks for your help guys.
