How can I change the JellyBean lockscreen? - General Questions and Answers

Ok so I have the X-TremE CM10 1.5 Pure ROM on my Samsung Galaxy SII but the loclscreen is different than it should be, the icon that looks like a lock is replaced by some kind of dragon .. i've gone through all the settings a few times but I can't find out how .. I guess some place in the framework.
Can you ease tell me how to do this? And be specific because i'm a huge noob ...
I'll put a screenshot of how to lockscreen looks right now.
Thanks!

Have you tried widget locker lockscreen? Its a paid app ($3 US)definitely worth purchasing if you find yourself tinkering a bunch though.

Discussing pirated apps is not allowed here on xda. The widgetlocker developer is actually a member here.
@OP I suggest asking in the ROM thread since this is very ROM specific and it looks like the dev added it in himself. Otherwise, unless you are completely glued to this one ROM I'm sure there's another JB ROM without this dragon.
(Personally though, it looks pretty bad ass. I'd love it if it were my phone)

I apologize I never said pirated, bootleg or anything to infer that. furthermore I did encourage paying for the app. This attitude is why I have now 11 posts in nearly a year but in other Kernel specific forums I have hundreds a month. Gonna mind my own business and take what I bring to the table elsewhere.

You cannot get it officially outside of the Google Play store, unless its directly from TeslaCoil himself. When you download a paid app for free on another site, that is pirating.
If I said took this guys iPhone and sold it, isn't that stealing? But no I didn't say anything to infer that.

Please tell me isn't there anything I can replace in the framework files? What's the name of the lockscreen file?

[Q][Donation Fund] ROM development..lets get some interest, Infuse CM7,MiUi :)

Hey guys and gals, I'd like to get an idea for how much interest we have in buying a few infuse devices for some of the Cyananogen team and/or the Miui team.
I first want to understand how many people would be interested in this and thereafter i will reach out to some people to talk to Koush and company. You don't have to donate now just pledge a donation for a specific ROM.
The thought behind this is that if we can get either of these two teams or both of them a device the may not have considered once they spend time with such a beautiful device they will be more interested in development for ths phone sooner.
If we dont get enough interest in donations we'll just have to wait on a few devs to mosey on over here. Your choice!
here is an example where this worked well

Imho, if u want MIUI - get an iPhone, it's a direct copy pretty much.
Now CM7 is a different topic, would love that!

There's a video tour at CyanogenMod's website that you can scope out here.
More info about MIUI can be located here.
As a new Infuse owner I really hope we can get some development going asap! I would def be up to donating if thats what it takes to get development started!!!

I didn't know MIUI = iphone
no matter it' sense, touchwiz, or motoblur, I always replace it with launcherpro.
I just love the MIUI phone dialer and power menu that has all the shortcuts I needed.

im going down for $10 on cm7 or cm8 if ice-cream comes out. not that i'd even use it. the way i see it is that miui exists on the galaxy s using a cm kernel.the sgs miui will likely flash on this once we have a aosp kernel. miui could also be ported onto our base rom like it started for the fascinate but it is not as clean that way and means you will be behind the curve on os version. if we are gonna get a totaly custom non samsung rom it makes most sence to build it off the newest nexus sources so i think cm is the clear winner

5 ROW APP DRAWERS!!! Hate em

Why are so many roms coming with 5 row app drawers..I hate them..The scrolling on them is is jittery and the app icons are smaller..I wish more developers would include a flashable zip for the stock 4 row..The transparent stuff is wack also..just my two cents no one has to agree

Since I don't have to agree, I won't. But if you don't like it, I'm sure you could search this site for a mod to remove it.
Ummmm ok..thing is the developers have to make a mod...I've been rooted since the days of the G1 so I'm pretty knowledgeable..the mod would have to be on the same frameworks as the rom u have or you will encounter problems..can't just flash any mod for it..my original staement was as to why the 5 row drawers seem to come with every rom

If you don't like it, replace it. Get another launcher, like launcher pro, that you can specify rows x cols for your app drawer

Being a knowledgable Android person, you would know these mods are made in Rosie.apk, not the framework. And seeing as how every rom is based on stock, all you would need to do is pull Rosie.apk from stock unmodified rom and push it into your current rom, making sure permissions are right. But I'm sure you already knew all of this since you owned a G1...

LOL! That's great; I didn't even notice, and I'm a stickler for that kind of thing! Nice catch.
OP: As to why "most roms" come with a 5 column app-drawer, I believe it's because most people want that. Not to minimalize your needs, but if the masses demand it, give them what they want!
I don't recall anyone contacting me, via twitter, or irc, save one person in regards to the 5 columns.
Guess what? The person who asked me got their own personal package to flash.
Guess what else? Now that my PC went tits up, you just gonna have to wait, or go through one the above channels. I don't have a lot of access anymore to my stuff.
Yes I know the rosie apk can be pulled...I've done it before on the Htc Evo using root explorer and setting the correct permissions..I'm not a dumbass..there are times when the rosie simply will not worked being pushed to the system..this is my post expressing that I don't like them..if I needed help doing it I would have asked..some people need to spend more time realizing this is a forum and not tryna feel the need to prove something...NEXT!!!

You pushed it wrong then. Other than that, only issue would be you have the wrong Rosie. Anyone will tell you Root Explorer is not exactly the way to push framework files and Rosie.apks. For a knowledgeable person, you seem to know so little.
Some of u are not reading my original post right..instead your trying to bash me on the internet like I'm a total dumbass which will not happen..I expressed something I did not like..I know there are launchers available..I don't want to use those..I also did not ask how to do it..I don't need someone trying to question my intelligence neither or try to make themselves seem like the "Android rooting GURU"..You like what you like and I like what I like, there is no right or wrong..I have knowledge using adb while some of you are trying to bash at me..this is a general discussion forum..I don't need to be attacked

WP7 For HTC EVO... Well kind of: Launcher 7

Hello all,
I have searched the forums for the EVO 4G and found nothing on this so I thought I'd share.
I recently came across a wonderful home screen replacement in the android market. I was looking for a way to get a simple UI for my phone that didn't use many resources. I began on XDA and then branched out from here. A couple Google searches later, I found an app in the Android Market that replaces your home screen with Windows Phone 7's Metro UI. This UI is simple, easy to use, fast, and above all it works 100% of the time for me. I wanted to share it with you guys because I know there are quite a few people interested in a WP7 port to the EVO. This application is probably as close as we will get for a while and it comes really close to mimicking the UI of WP7 perfectly. You can set custom backgrounds, add any application or non-HTC widget as a tile on the Home Screen, adjust the animations for more eye candy or more performance (although full eye candy works just as fast for me), and many more.
I am going to try and build a ROM with this Homescreen replacing HTC sense to free up both internal and RAM memory. If I can accomplish this using the basic ROM kitchen, I will post another thread about this in the development thread and provide a download.
I have the link to the Android Market page below but if you want to install it straight from your phone, just search for Launcher 7 in the android market. There is a free and a paid version. I have the free, but I am going to buy the paid version very soon. If I make a ROM, it will include the free version for obvious reasons.
Links To Android Market pages:
Free version: https://market.android.com/details?id=info.tikuwarez.launcher3&hl=en
Paid Version: https://market.android.com/details?id=info.tikusoft.launcher7&hl=en
Disclaimer: I did not make this application, nor do I claim any rights to it. All credit goes to the developer,Timo Kujala, for their awesome work on this application. I am not responsible if this messes up your phone (it most likely will not) in any way. I am also not responsible if you get hit by a bus while playing with your new layout lol.
I hope you guys enjoy this awesome little app as much as me and give feedback on whether or not you would like to see a ROM with this as the main launcher.
Nice find!

Thanks for the post but that's a different app... It looks cool too but I'm working with Launcher 7 specifically as far as asking permission from the developer. I am not claiming to be on the cutting edge with this. Launcher 7 itself has been around quite a while. I like the idea of posting other WP7 launchers though so if you have them go on and post them.

Anyone that would be willing to try the ROM if I built it? I don't want to spend the time if no one wants it.
I'm actually very surprised that there isn't a WP7 Clone ROM out already. I would have thought that if this developer was spending so much time on these various apps... that they would naturally compile them into a ROM.
I would say that OMGB or Salvagemod would be an excellent base for AOSP... or a deodexed stock ROM with minimal bloat or SalvageSense for Sense.
You would simply replace these WP7 apps with those that already reside in the base image and theme to match.
I'm sure I'd play around with it, but could never use it for a daily.
All in all... If I wanted a WP7 look; I'd sell my Evo & buy a WP7 phone.

Hell yeah, I'd try it. I'm playing with WP7Lock and Launcher7 right now.
To other poster, the devs haven't created a rom, because they wanna create something that'll work on all devices, is my understanding.
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium
Alright cool. I'm starting work on it now. It should be finished by Sunday I would say going by how much free time I will have. I have Ubuntu now and I am figuring out how to work the kitchen. The ROM will originally be just stock rooted Sense (I have yet to determine which dev team's ROM to go with) with the launcher baked in, then the second release, if I have enough interest, will be an AOSP ROM with everything stripped except apps people request and will have Launcher7 as the home screen and the WP7 lock screen. Keep up the good feedback guys.
So, you're thinking first release would be stock sense with launcher7 baked in as the default/only launcher?
I gotta say, I don't quite see the point. I mean, how is that different than than simply setting launcher7 as default launcher? Not trying to come across rude, or anything. Just saying I don't quite see the point, or maybe I misunderstood your intention.?
Very interested in seeing this, though. And yeah, using aosp for this project is a great idea IMHO

Chameleon Launcher

So this new launcher came out but is only available for the tablet on Google Play Store. It is currently in the beta stage, with a VIP list and pre orders. Will it ever become available to the skyrocket or any smartphone? Is it going to have a lite version. I think it looks sweet, i just don't want to get my hopes up
(Im pretty sure this is a Q&E, but its related to themes and apps...If it needs to be moved, move it please and thank you)

I'm pretty sure you would get the answer you seek if you sent the developer of the app an email and ask him his plans for the app and the future. Really only he can answer that since he is the dev.....

I guess that makes sense. This community is great with modding stuff so i figured i would ask, no harm done with that right? I searched and some other people with other phones were asking similar questions.
Well I have took an app from the market and with the devs permission made changes so it would work correctly on our phone. And I uploaded it with his permission but its gonna be impossible to find someone here to make it compatible to our phone without getting the devs permission first. Their is a strict rule here about messing around with others work without permission.... but there was no harm in asking. And if you get the devs permission someone here may take it and make it compatible but if its a paid app on the market the devs not gonna give that permission....

Which is why i was wondering if there was going to be a lite version. I Emailed the dev(s) so ill report back when they return my email. I hope it becomes available, seems like the next best launcher. TW, apex and all those launchers start to get old after a while.
I don't see how it would be useful for smaller displays. The whole point of the app is to show a bunch of different information on one screen, but only so much can be done on a 4 inch screen. The suitable alternative is to just use widgets on your homescreen as you probably do now.
I'm gonna go ahead and say it isn't just for tablets. This user posted screenshots here in the 'post your homescreen here' topic in themes/apps for our phone.. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=29759858&postcount=770
Looks interesting. I own adw ex, nova prime and apex pro. Going to stick with apex most likely as I've spent enough on launchers. It would have to be really amazing to justify spending ten bucks on it (that's the pre-order price)
i tried chameleon. its good launcher even if in beta.
but i think its so big and heavy for a launcher.(20 mb) maybe my tab doesnt enough to run chameleon.(p1000-galaxy tab-)
Hiya! I was asked to post here after someone saw me running it... If you simply load the APK, it works, but to get the most out of it, changing your DPI to the next level will easily let it fit decently with smallish on our screens.

Exactly. That's why I said in my previous post to get the devs permission. Most will give you permission on free apps but some will not. Paid apps you can forget about it. Also if the dev gives permission and you was to fix it add to it etc etc and upload it don't forget to give the dev credit for his too cause that's only right....

The official Orthus Rom Discussion thread.

OK this thread is for the discussion of orthus ROMs. So no matter what version of orthus you may be running all discussions go here. I start this thread with mindmajics approval so that we may clear the ROM thread of discussions and questions. Majic will of course use the ROM thread to announce updates and such but all other comments or questions go in this ROM thread. Now let me say that the same rules apply to this thread as did the ROM thread and they are as follows.
1. Be nice and considerate to others.
2. No flaming unless majic sees fit after all it his rom.
3. Never under any circumstances disrespect the dev which is majic. Our devs work hard for us to enjoy custom ROMs with no pay. They take their time to do this so at the very least we could be kind and considerate.
4. With that said if you have a problem with the ROM post your problem without placing blame and either majic or some of us who have run this ROM since day one will do our best to help you in anyway we can.
5. If you have solved a problem you found please post your solution. It just might help someone else having the same issue.
Majic has worked hard to make this a great ROM so let's do all we can to help him make it even greater. I really hope we can all work together and solve any issues anyone is having with this ROM.
Before you post anything about having a problem please make sure you have followed the exact directions majic gave for installing the ROM. Also make sure to be as detailed as possible about your problem. The more info you give the more likely you are to get a solution to your problem. Also make sure you have read the whole ROM thread because chances are there may already be a solution to whatever problem you are having.
Well I think I covered everything. Majic if I've left anything out please let me know. I decided to put this in the general section due to it being a discussion thread even though we will be answering questions when we can. So let's make orthrus even better. Also feel free to post battery times but please include the screen time on pic with battery time pic and also which launcher you are using whether its touchwiz, xperia, or one from the play store.
Alright let the discussion begin....
All further ROM updates can be found over at rootzwiki... here is the link
http://rootzwiki.com/topic/35685-rom-orthus-six-102612/
This discussion thread will remain open but the ROM thread here on XDA will be locked. Any questions, comments, or discussion will answered here. Also any problems may be discussed here or over at rootzwiki.... Hope you all continue to use this ROM and not let the change of venue effect that. I will continue to help majic answer any questions or solve any problem my limited knowledge allows lol....

Orthos 4 has been a little bit of a downgrade from 3 for me. I've already had two lockups using Chrome (which may be the problem instead of the ROM) when I had 0 lockups on 3. Battery life has been just as good and everything is running smoothly minus the 2 hiccups. This is the 1st Orthos update I've done a full wipe for if that matters.
I also have some battery screens to post when I get home of my cycle running the xperia launcher. It seemed to perform close to Apex but since I was on data for longer than normal it's hard to tell.
Hi guys so based on Mind wanting to change the default launchers, I've bumped into the following:
Lightning Launcher
Trebuchet Launcher (CM9)
Holo Launcher
Nemus Launcher
Smart Launcher
Apex Launcher
Now please keep in mind these are just options that looked good to me, but I have yet to use any of them. Just wondering if anyone else might know of some great launchers out there either available from the market or even from other phones for example the xperia launcher or even the sense launcher from HTC phones.
Some Launchers that I have used previously
SIII TW Launcher (Used it with Embryo)
Go Launcher (Used to swear by this group of devs then they started to produce ****. Go SMS was great as well until they decided to only be able to do SMS+MMS backups to their cloud)
Launcher Pro (Was great up to a little before the paid version of the app was released. Then it got way too bloated and bogged down performance of my phone.)

Myself I either use touchwiz launcher or apex. I have used go until they screwed it up with the updates. I've used adw but really didn't like it either.

I do have a suggestion you can think on as well. How about adding the gallery from the xperia to go with the launcher? Just a thought

You know what I do kind of agree here but I like Orthrus. Might give Xperiance a go later but I thought that this is what Mind was trying to do here. To create a impressively customizable rom that had a ton of kick and stability with the battery life being icing on the cake. Correct me if I am wrong but that's just the vibe I got...

Yup
Orthus is meant to be more of a pure AOKP with battery tweaks, alternative launchers, and additional customization options. Lean and mean. I love the Sony album though

Haha! I thought I was the only one this anal about grammar and spelling!
I liked ADW Launcher until ics came out, then I went to the paid version of apex because it just worked better. Haven't looked back and I own the pro version of adw too. I'm now using Nova because it was 25 cents on the play store for a while and, I must say, the paid version is awesome as it does backups of your homescreens which include widgets. This is something Apex has yet to incorporate. I realize that Majick could not include the paid version of any launcher due to the pirating issue, but I highly recommend buying nova if you flash a lot of ROMs like myself. Makes setup across ROMs much less time consuming.
Launcher Pro was really good for a while, but I believe the development hasn't released an update for a really long time and people were saying that it wasn't compatible with ics so I doubt it would play well with the almighty Orthus.
Holo launcher is nice. It was bundled in with one of the ROMs I flashed. It's pretty snappy but, since I have the paid version of apex and nova, I left it for them.
Just my two cents.

I'm so used to people spelling my name "John" when it's really "Jon" that any misspelling or grammatical errors as totally lost on me.
Even my username is a deliberate misspelling of the word "magic". Alexander Crowley deliberately misspelled the original word to "magick" so he could differentiate his meaning from the original meaning. And of course my version is deliberately misspelled because I mean something different too lol
Follow? Aren't words fun?
