Although I frequently switch back and forth between a lot of ROMs, I keep coming back to GingerBeast time and again, despite the fact that it's now unsupported. Frowny face.
Anyway, I'm looking for as stock an experience as I can have and would like to change the lockscreen from the default rotary interface to Google's sliding tab interface. I've done a lot of Google searching and read through the GingerBeast thread, but I'm posting here to ask to be pointed in the right direction before I bootloop my phone. Is the UOT kitchen the best place to accomplish this? Anyone have any other ideas? What files need to be modified? Anything at all you can provide would be appreciated.

I've tried widget locker, and it's a fantastic app, but it would have to sit and run in the background just to superficially change my lockscreen to something so basic, eating up cycles. That and I wouldn't even use half of its features.
By the way, fantastic contributions to Ninja! Definitely one of my favs.

If you like the Sense 3.0 lockscreen, you could try Agile Lock.

Checked it out and it looks good, but I'm looking less for an app and more for how to modify the file system to accomplish what I'm trying to do. Anyone?

Hey everyone. I have been searching to no avail and was wondering if maybe someone can help. I'm using a pretty much stock rom, just rooted, and running adw EX. I know there are gingerbread themes for CM6.1, which change the notification bar icons and all to green, but I have yet to see one for a sense rom. Even the ADW themes dont change the notification bar (unless I'm missing something?) Can someone out there point me in the right direction if there is one? Thanks!
I have yet to see one and im a rom/theme junkie lol.

It sounds like Wes is working on one for his Super-Z roms.

I made one that I am using on my phone right now with Wes's Z rom, but I can't for the life of me change the 3g icon to anything, it always remains the stock icon. Everything else is Gingerbread themed though. Apparently Wes is making one as well, I am asking him how he changed the 3g icon (if he was able to) so that I can finish mine. I did, however, incorporate DarkTharen's Conservative icons into my status bar, so the only Gingerbread icons in my status bar are the usuals (reception bars, battery [with percentage], and WiFi).

I'm really bummed about that too. Been running your theme for a while and I love it. I wish I could toss some coin into your computer fund, but I don't have it at the moment

Personally, I'm hoping for a stock Gingerbread set for Z roms... Huge thanks to you if you can do this!
it's very simply to make the status bar black, with the green 3g,wifi, signal bars, battery, but the black menu is a different thing, within sense.
ive had it done for awhile on my super-z standard rom

I've been seeing screens with these custom lockscreens. How do I go about getting some of these? Do I have to create them myself? Sorry if I sound like a total newbie. I'm probably gonna be stuck with my Hero for another year because of Sprint's changes. Can someone point me in the right direction?

Most people use widget locker in order to get a custom lock screen. It's a paid app though.

now if you just want an alternate lockscreen there is a few lockbot is the best but i will say its very laggy and half the time your system lockscreen overrides it
I really just want something that actually replaces the stock screen. Whenever up tried using lockscreen apps they tend to be buggy and... like you said, the stock screen overrides the app. I just want something flashable that overrides the stock screen, not the other way around.
I haven't had time to search for anything but will try tomorrow.

I've not seen any actual lock screen replacements. Cm7 has about 5 different styles but i haven't seen any replacement lock screens in a while since everyone was putting vanilla lock screens on sense
¿dpeeps74?
word, using widget locker is legit, paid for app but its great!! I have 3 different widgets on the screen and it's only not worked like once but i think it was a phone issue not the actual program.
Q: I love the customization available with the various ASOP roms, however really like the look and feel of the various sense roms too. I'm running Virtous Unity 2.37 and its great.
Without using an application such as ADW products, can I tweek the look to remove the app name from the display? I know what's what and just want to make it cleaner.
I'm not very technical and have searched but nothing seems to apply.

Use Any Cut (free in Market). Create shortcut to App from within Any Cut...although it won't let you leave the name blank, it will allow you to just input a space so it appears blank. See camera in top row of screenshot

desktop visualizer will do the same thing, but i think it will let you leave it completely empty
I use Desktop Visualizer. Notice the NFL icon. It is a custom icon that actually launches the NFL '11 app that I use. Also notice how I shortened the name of the stock messaging app.

Thanks for the input. I went with Desktop Visualizer. It was free and extremely simple to use. I've already cleaned up the desktop and it looks clutter free. Thanks!

It's a work in progress. I'm stock rooted with the Ginerbread/Sense 2.1 rom.
The wallpaper I found on Zedge. The skin is sopL87's 2.1 work over in the DHD threads. It is the Glass Sense skin. I am planning on changing the battery icon blue. I got some nice things going on in the other screens too. All a work in progress.

Just interested in your wallpaper. I have my very own custom blue carbon fiber skin.

Hi all
I know other people have posted similar threads, but not with (somewhat obviously) the same personal requirements. Here's what I'm looking for:
1) A ROM compatible with the O2 UK network.. yes, I know it pretty much should be anyway, but I've used an O2 ROM on my Desire S in the past and the voicemail speeddial was set to the Spanish number. It's unlikely to be an issue assuming I can set the speeddial assigned to 1 on the keypad - but still.. My voicemail number is 901.
2) No custom screens - ie. I don't want it to be apparent that the phone is running a custom ROM, so no personalised loadup screens (although I'm possibly open to different icons assuming I can see what they look like before I install the ROM).
3) Bloatware removed. I don't even have any intention of using Facebook or Twitter.
4) General speed improvements alongside greater stability, if possible.
5) Optimum battery life! At the moment, I get three days at a stretch out of my Sensation with no background data and light to medium useage. I conditioned the battery to get this and am fairly happy with it, but would like a very comfortable three days if possible. I think I easily got this before I installed the latest official software update and now no longer do.
Is that all hoping for too much? Thanks for your help in advance.

EddyOS 2.08 rom, pretty much stock but bloat free and with a couple improvements.

Sorry I didn't see this sooner Joe. I'm not sure if it could be done....by me, anyway. Avatar's themes are MIUI based that have been altered to run on a jellybean framework. I'm not sure if that's done thru the ROM's framework itself or whether it is embedded in the "theme.apk" file. It's just something I will have to look into for you. I'll be happy to take a look as soon as I'm not in the middle of trying to get another port out there to you guys. If you're curious though you can Google Rootbox 4.2.2 and see what I'm trying to make cooperate for us.....
i think you can use baooka launcher on any jellybean rom and there are tons of themes for it. i beleive the themes are only tied into the launcher and not so much the system

GREAT! I know they're altered MIUI but I didn't realize it was contained in the launcher. Dang if that doesn't give me an idea or two. LOL
.....More than welcome Joe.
Matt, that is the ticket! Installed bazooka launcher, downloaded the themes and they carried over when I switched between Nova, Trebuchet or any other launcher! FANTASTIC! thank you!:beer::thumbup:
