In response to the iPhone and MGS2 lock/unlock sounds...I decided to make my own. (I would link back to them but since I'm a new member, I can't.)
The iPhone sounds were better than stock but still bland. MGS2, while I'm a Metal Gear fan, those sounds have always grown to be very annoying after a few hours of using them. So I made some that were unique but not annoying (for me at least). Zipper sounds. Just made sense to me.
I'll be making more just because I get bored easily. So, as I make more, I'll upload them here. Share your own too!
(Remember, they have to be in .ogg format. The easiest way to convert is to download Audacity, open the file you want, edit if needed, and export to ogg.)
Sweet ill watching this thread!
Here's a can opening (Unlock) can crushing (Lock) file.
Moved everything to OP.

Hey Casper, you can always re-edit your original post and add the new zip files there instead of having them throughout the thread, and also looking forward to what you upload. Thanks!!!!
Uh, I haven't heard about this. How can I set an unlock sound?
Thanks for the "scratch" sounds BBCasper.

+1. unless I'm blind, I'm not seeing an option to set the lock tone, just to have it function. Love to do it, but Idk where the phone is seeing the stock sound, or how to change it. :/
Put files in the tools directory .
-adb remount
-adb shell rm /system/media/audio/ui/Lock.ogg
-adb shell rm /system/media/audio/ui/Unlock.ogg
-adb push "lockfile.ogg" /system/media/audio/ui/
-adb push "unlockfile.ogg" /system/media/audio/ui/
-reboot
Or you can always use root explorer from market to move files around.

Do you have to to have a rooted froyo to do this?
hi awesome sounds but wondering what is the name of the sound file for the tap sound the sound froyo makes when you tap anything with the finger... can that be replaced??
Downloaded this today off the market and it is awesome. For those who dont stray from the Charge forum check it out.
Its great since we do not have MIUI running on the Charge.
Best of all it is free.

You can do it, but it's kind of a bear to do... What you need to do is to copy the MTZ files from the MIUI folder of your SD card to your computer. Next, extract the MTZ's with 7Zip and scan all of the XML files for Chinese. Next, go to Google Translate and translate the text, then replace the Chinese with English. Once you've got all the Chinese translated, use 7Zip to repack everything as an MTZ again. DO NOT alter the naming of any of the files!!
Place the repacked MTZ files back into the MIUI folder of your phone's SD card, overwriting the existing files.
Boom. English.

Wow. Thats a lot of work. I just used the ones from the lockscreen thread and just manually put in sd card folder. Some didnt work. Others worked perfectly.
This is an awesome, "must have" app. I have a small annoyance though and maybe you can help. Upon restart, the default lockscreen is the one used until I open milocker. Anyway around this?

Hi!
I've downloaded a few themes from the link above and they don't seem to work for me... I've downloaded, extracted (if zipped) and moved the into the /MIUI/themes folder. Application shows them properly but, after aplying them, I just see my screen background instead of the lockscreen. What could I be doing wrong?

There were a handful that unfortunately didn't work for me but about 75% of them worked fine.
However I also just did the google translate to a few downloaded from the app and it was actually quite simple.
Just an fyi I think the screen size effects the lock screens you can use on your phone. I think that might be the problem.

I just had the same problem with my Droid 3 (thought it was just my phone/rom).
So did a bit of comparison between the themes from the Miui thread and the themes downloaded with MiLocker.
It seems that there is a folder in the Miui themes called 'lockscreen' which shouldn't be a folder...but instead should be a zip file without the zip extension for it to work with MiLocker.
So what I did was take the folder called 'advance' inside the 'lockscreen' folder and made it into a zip file (lockscreen.zip). Then I renamed it to remove the '.zip' extension. I deleted the 'lockscreen' folder from the .mtz file, dragged this file into the .mtz theme file and voila! The theme works!
Hopefully this will bring joy to some people.

Thanks for posting this since I'm sure people where confused as to why some themes worked and some didn't. For people that want to know why this is done, here's why:
Afaik, there are two reasons that the lockscreen folder is left as a folder and not already zipped with the extension removed. First, and mainly why, it is because the actual MIUI theme engine (which MiLocker is based on but not the same) will actually do all the work for you and convert the lockscreen folder to the correct format. The MIUI lockscreen thread was meant for people using MIUI and don't take into consideration people that just use MiLocker. Second, by leaving lockscreen as a folder it makes things a bit easier and faster for people to do their own customizations to the theme/lockscreen by just having to unzip one file rather than two.
Man I miss MIUI, so easy to theme .
I do like MiLocker but man it's been frustrating for me on my UK T Mobile stock 2.3.3 SGS2.
At first I wanted 1) a decent looking theme 2) with a camera shortcut and 3) music widget/player thing.
You don't know how hard it is to find these! Well from the official in app availible themes anyways.
*Even then with the music player, it's weird, as to activate it you have to click on a certain part of the lock (varies for each one).
When I finally found several I discovered 2 major major flaws. Can you guys try this and not/say it's just me?!
Play some music then lock the screen and now try to raise the volume.
For me using the physical volume buttons,
1) the screen turns on.
2) it only changes the volume by one (higher or lower).
How annoying is that?! Is this a problem with my phone or settings?

Trying to follow your guide but confused...
1. If you zip 'advance' surely it becomes 'advance.zip' and not 'lockscreen.zip'?
2. What did you rename it to and with what extension?
3. The theme I have is zipped - do I change this to .mtz and is this then where you deleted the 'lockscreen' folder from?
Update: this is the theme which has me stumped http://forum.xda-developers.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=642540&d=1309491017
I have extracted it but there's no .mtz in there...?
How's everybody's battery react to using this app? Does your phone enter sleep the same frequency as the stock lock screen?
I always feel like I am getting a little bit of an extra drain, but after doing comparisons I think it is just in my head....battery drain paranoia.

i'd hate to beat a dead horse and spam but can you guys look at my problem too?
regarding battery drain i don't notice that much of an issue. i think there may be some but not really something that should be major.

^Hey cheers for the reply but no need now!
In 1.3 they've fixed and acknowledged it was a problem.
"What's in this version:
(Feb.10, 2012，Version 1.3)
Support Android 4.0.
Support pattern password unlocking(need to enable "lock home key" in setting).
Support media keys.
Support volume key adjusting while playing music.
Fix some one-key lock related bugs on certain device models."
The screen still turns on though but that's something I guess I can live with. Cheers!
dead after reboot
I shutdown my phone over night with MIUI Locker installed and working. Started my phone this morning... no lockscreen. Enabled/disabled Miui Locker and it worked. had to kill the app properly between enable/disable but it worked.
Fix to make it work after reboot? I'm on CM7.2
I tested this on my note 5 and everything works perfectly, even the sounds. I love the weather animations and wish i could do live wallpaper but this is great. My wife got the v10 today and i said F it im trying this.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/tmo.../mod-htc-weather-animated-lg-v10-rom-t3283078
Just follow the instructions. There is no modifying the system so no damage is caused if you mess up. But how could you if you follow instructions?
Will this work on all variants of the Note 5?

Unfortunately it's not a widget just the app itself with live animations inside. I have to copy the weather folder to ur android folder via any file explorer than install the app.
1. Download HTC Weather Animations zip file
2. Go Here to download HtcServicePack.apk and Weather.apk
3. Copy the APKs to your SD Card
4. Install APKs as normal
5. Extract weather folder from zip file
6. Place weather folder from the zip inside /sdcard/Android (Important - This makes the Animations work)
To me personally, I think the default Android keyboard typing sounds are awful. The iOS 10 ones sound much better. So I made a .zip file of the iOS sounds so you can use them on your phone. Here's how to install them. It does require root and an app like ES File Explorer, just a head's up.
Download and unzip file
Navigate to system/media/audio/ui
If you want to keep the old sounds just as a backup, copy the following files to a safe location outside of this folder
KeypressDelete.ogg
KeypressReturn.ogg
KeypressSpacebar.ogg
KeypressStandard.ogg
Delete the original files in the system/media/audio/ui
Go to the downloaded file, and copy the new sounds over to system/media/audio/ui
Set the permissions of the new files to rw- r-- r--
Reboot and enjoy!

Just what was I looking for!!
Thanks!
Great man!! I love it. Do you know if is possible to have also the design of the keyboard like iOS? Or at least the whole UI sound kit of iOS 10?

Hey guys.
I used to mod the ViPER4Android apk to include a widget that allows for quick changing/selection of the currently applied profile. Seeing as ViPER4Android went to a Chinese company, they are no longer sharing their source code with us. With that said, I went on and made my own app that allows for the widget to still work using root. It also will applied selected profiles with certain Bluetooth devices. IE, I have my Bluetooth in my car set to my "Car" V4A profile. So when my car connects, it automatically applies my car's profile. Same for my Fugoo Bluetooth speaker.
Everything is hard coded so if you don't use the defaults from V4A it prolly won't work.
Let me know of any other issues though.
