ok so i know you can usually just use titanium backup to remove the respective lockscreen apk to get rid of the custom lock screen on android phones, that doesnt work on galaxy phones though. I HATEthe galaxy lockscreen. ive found some info on removing the samsung lockscreen from the captivate/vibrant/epic, but nothing on the 4G. Does anyone want to try to tackle it? Ive read somewhere that the same method wont work on the 4G.
There have been a few lockscreen threads but not just to remove the default lockscreen on the 4G.
thanks for looking
bump....anyone?
Its not that simple. You have to modify a lot of framework behaviors. I'm working on a mod but I'm stuck with one file and will probably contact hawkx to see if he can give me a hand.

thanks for the response, I know it isnt easy, I was wondering if anyone started tackling it yet. I found a flashable zip for the vibrant and epic, but we havent got to that point on the 4G yet. Hopefully someone can figure it out..im sure im not the only gs4g user who hates the lockscreen!
Actually, if all you want is the Aosp lockscreen, it 1 word that needs to be changed.

Hey i was just wondering, is there any way to get and play order & chaos online for the droid charge without having to root the device? Thx for any help
Yes there is a all device ver out there (google it) the down side is that you cant use the store so you cant add game time or gold. When you get the app you get 3 free months so lets hope it gets support before then.

Works perfectly! Thanks a bunch.
Can you help me out with a little more step by step please.
Im able to download the game from the market by changing my build prop... hence my sig below, but when I run it, it gets stuck after the first splash screen, at an hour glass type icon.... actually its the spinning circle.
Thanks
Edit. Btw, im running humble FROYO if that makes a difference.

All you have to do is change your build.prop file in /system to:
Instead of your device being i510, change it to i500. I'm playing O&C right now.

I got it to work. What the problem seemed to be, was the 600-700mb download over wifi was corrupt. I redownloaded, and now it works fine now.

Uninstall everything.
Delete all data related to the game.
Change build.prop lines to i500
Redownload and install.
Redownload the massive data package over WIFI.
Play game.
Exactly. It will work on this phone. I have to add, this game is freaking awesome. I've been waiting for a mobile version of WoW for years, but I certainly did not expect such a close copy! Lol.
Either way, it brings me back to my WoW days, and it fits in my back pocket.

Soo im kinda new at rooting. Can you walk me through the process of editing build.prop?

I donno. I can't even get the paid version to work after the update

I have been using the mms_cyan.apk
Found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=901216
And have been quite happy with it, with a couple exceptions. 1) It does not show the notification on my lock screen like my stock mms app does and 2) found out last night than anytime I go to send an audio or video file, the app FC's. If anyone could help me either figure out how to resolve these 2 issues or if it's too complex for someone who had little to no experience working w/ apks perhaps resolve it and tell me what had to be done so that I can learn from the experience I would be greatful.
I have included my stock mms.apk, the mms_cyan.apk, as well as my framework-res.apk in the zip file.
Thank you in advance.
Edit: I am using a LG-C800 on 2.3.4 if that matters

Actually, just tested it and I can't send any mms with this app... can receive just fine though. Where would I have to start to make the mms_cyan compatible? Cause the stock mms app sucks horribly, cannot even choose what folder to download attachments to. Really like the one I'm using but the limitation of not being able to send an mms just isn't a viable option...

Maybe the mms.cyan is missing files from your stock mms.apk
Any idea as to where to start? After decompiling both apks with autoapktool and looking in the folders the stock has a lot more folders inside, but don't know where to begin narrowing it down as to where the problem may lie. Thanks in advance...

what its mms.cyan can change skin?
It appears to be a modded stock mms.apk with the option of a white or black background and with the black background the names on the main conversation screen as well as 'new message' are colored cyan as well as the default contact image is modded, really like the app and wish I could get some help to mod it to work on my phone properly...
Sent from my LG-C800 using xda premium
I'm in about the same boat as you as far as skills go. If we can get dev attention to a ClorkworkMod recovery, then CyanogenMod (which I assume is where your preferred MMS comes from, judging by the name) opens up to us. The MyTouch Q is supposed to get an OTA update to ICS second quarter of this year, so it can definitely run the latest stuff-- even when bloated down with T-Mo apps and CarrierIQ. It's really a neat slider.
Yeah, after tweaking the phone some its pretty quick and love the fact its a slider... keep checking into the post hoping they will figure out cwm for the c800 but no such luck so far.
And judging from the original post where I found the mms_cyan, the OP has a lot of posts for HTC so thinking it was from one of those roms... but having no luck so far figuring out where to start so I can mod it to work fully on my phone.... not that I have any programming knowledge anyhow but... lol

Ok, so since I've been unable to figure this out on my own... I would gladly donate to whoever can figure this out so that I can have the Mms.apk that I want.

Almost hate to bump such an old post of mine, however still have been unable to figure out how to modify my prefered mms.apk to work as the stock mms does. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Tried the alternative messaging programs out there and none are what i'm looking for...

Totally works if you modify the build.prop. I altered model, brand, name, device, board, and manufacturer to that described here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=18687400&postcount=10
Got annoyed when they wouldn't even let me purchase the game under the $.49 sale in case I upgraded later. Oh well, workaround achieved.
[edit] I should have mentioned that before you do anything make a backup in CWM. Now, I'll be working on today seeing if i can freeze the app before a restore and then get it working again. Changing the build.prop can have some unforeseen consequences such as Swype having now lost its license. [/edit]
would you mind showing some proof. and if i do do it, do i just edit the lines that he has in red?

Not necessarily, what I've figured out is that at most you have to change the six lines defining the terms I mentioned in the first post. Link is just for reference.
As far as proof I might make a video when I can get around to it. Maybe even showing SixAxisController at work.

I recently changed my build.prop to "Droid3" specs so I could download and play modern combat 3, however I noticed that after I had done so, my accelerometer took a dump. Like, did not work at all.
It didn't even work after I changed my BP back to my normal Atrix2 specs. (After a reboot of course)
Luckily (thank you recovery) I had made a backup right before I changed the BP, and was able to go back in time two hours and get my accelerometer working again.
Anyone else ran into this?

Anyways the nexus s trick doesn't work for me. I think you need to change just more than the name in the phone.
Quite possibly board as well?
If someone has got this to really work without screwing up some important part of their phone maybe you can post it a screenie of your build?

I have seen, for the Nexus for example, a way to remove/change the Verizon Wireless text next to the date in the notification pull down by pushing an edited spn-conf.xml to /system/etc.. but it did not work for the SGS3 it seems.
Anyone have another idea?
Taking it from your signature, it appears that you are already rooted. Since that is the case, it may be worthwhile flashing a custom ROM. You can take roms that are based off of the Stock TouchWiz firmware that came with the phone, such as SynergyROM or Bean's Custom Stock, to name a couple. If memory serves me correctly, those roms get rid of the carrier label. Then there are AOSP based roms, such as Cyanogenmod or AOKP. In AOKP, there is an option to change the carrier label, but you can only do it once.
Thanks.. but ROMS are not my thing, I like to do small custom tweaks, mods, hacks like this. I am sure it can be done outside of a full ROM, like the Nexus and many other phones can, it is just a matter of finding the right hack to do it. Heck, I know there is an app you can pay for that will do this, but there must be a manual hack.
You need to either edit the strings.xml or tw_notification_extended.xml

no can find. was removed from market and all links references I find in Google are old. even ones here are DOA. App was last updated well over a year ago.
I'm not sure if it's compatible with the S III, but look into the carrier name change app by conap (xda dev). I think the actual apk was called ccname or something. You just type in what you want in place of the carrier label and it'll cycle through airplane mode and voila.
I used it for my Droid Eris without any problems. I see no reason why it wouldn't work for the S III.
