That's not Android on it...there is a actual Lockscreen mod like that in Cydia

What makes you assume that is an android unlock screen? (which it is not)

You could make the same home screen using typo widget and widget locker its an iPhone using cydia its also a theme forgot which one.

I don't ever remember seeing this lock screen on Cydia. Atleast for my iPod.
well if it is there, and i take your word on it, i wonder if these (the android and iOS) apps are created by the same people.... they look way to similar.

I had that on my 3Gs when I had one...I used to have pictures on photo bucket but I just went through and deleted a bunch of my screen shots..doh

That's actually the Typography Lockscreen theme available in Cydia.
Also, Android has already been ported to the 1st Gen iPhone, iPhone 3G, and the iPod touch 1G.
(I used to be an iOS user since 2008.. Android got me in 2011. )

For Android, you would have to download the Typography widget, and then place it on your lockscreen using WidgetLocker as your new lockscreen. I have no idea how to theme the lockscreen, but I'm sure you can.

Icons

G2x = first droid. Just started using launcher pro. Any recommendations on where to find good icons? I know I can use downloaded images, but I don't necessarily like the background of the images - example, I want to use a picture of an old rotary phone for the phone icon, or a pic of an old roladex for contacts, but don't like the white background of the downloaded image. Any suggestions?

look at my signature i create text icons

If you don't mind spending a few bucks, download "Custom Launcher Icons" from the market. It is well worth the money. There are thousands of themed icons and docks available. I am very pleased with this app, I never get bored with my icons now. I'll attach some screenshots so you get the idea.

G2x is not a droid. Pet peeve of mine. Rant off

I was thinking the same thing. Droid is something that other company calls its Android phones.

Again, newbie mistake - after the time spent on here and just re-reading my op I yelled at myself.

When we copy/unzip to the SD card, are we dragging the folder itself? Or are we double clicking the folders and unloading all of the icons into the SD card? If I i drop the folder with the icons in them i

When we copy/unzip the icons into the SD card, are we copying the folder with the icons or double clicking the folder and dragging all the icons? Or it doesnt make a difference?
Sorry thought the post on top of this one got deleted.

Puzzle lockscreen

Can someone port over the puzzle lockscreen from the droid charge? I know the infuse has it.for only messages and calls but the charge can use it as a constant lockscreen..

I wondered about that lock screen and I know I've seen it before but only on the inital power up - have been able to find it since

Im in the middle of porting over the "9 lockscreens" from KB5 and the samsung vibrant with the help of Whitehawkx. Patience is key on this one, our framework is really odd and to be honest. Its kicking my ass.

Thank you nop

In the mean time, can you point me to the default TW lockscreen so I can hopefully make a backup of it and use it for ROMs that use the AOSP lockscreen? Or better yet if a quick and easy CWM zip could be made.
The lockscreens and dialers are the parts of TW that I actually love.

any progress on this?

Chill man, I'm sure Nopcodex is doing what he can.

can't wait for this!! it's gonna be awesome!!

I will be a very happy camper when this gets done, I hate the stupid glass lockscreen!!

Try widgetlocker. It is on the market.

Don't attack me lol, but find the "ripple lock screen" app (from honeycomb) quite satisfying. Try it out. Nice and clean

If he is taking the time to do this for the community, you don't ask for ETA's. You just be thankful for them when these generous developers release it. Thank you.

WidgetLocker FCs whenever I get a text (Handcent) and leaves my screen on all night. Sad face.

Zephyr Multitasking

Hey guys,
Anyone who has ever used a jail broken idevice must be familiar with the zephyr multitasking tweak that allows you to switch between apps by swiping the screen?
You can also exit any app by swiping up from the bottom which takes you to the home screen.
What I wanna know is that is there any such tweak or utility for android?

I'm wondering the same too! any luck?? that multitasking swipe is the best i found... do let me know if you found anything similar.. thanks!

Nope no such luck.

What you're describing makes me think of my old Palm Pixi if you find anything like this I would be interested too. I'll do some digging an if I find anything I'll let you guys know.

Has anyone found a solution to this yet? There are a few guesture-based multitasking apps and tweaks now, if only we could get hold of the source for one and impliment that smooth two-finger swipe 'gallery style' animation for switching apps.
Cydia substrate is available for android, maybe someone could get in touch with the zephyr dev

Is it possible

Is it possible to have the screen turn on when I get a notification ( I hate to say it but like the iPhone does you what I mean) ? Or what I need a third-party app to do that

By sub I mean an option inside a main option in settings... I know if you go to the message app like your going to send a text and hit the menu it will also bring up message settings too... It has been a long time since I've been on sense but I'm sure I saw that option somewhere.. Sorry for being so vague...
Sent from my HTC One S using xda premium

No worries.
Yeah looks like the only setting is to show message on lock screen, but nothing to actually turn screen on when it arrives. I really only want this because I always have my phone on silent. When playing Xbox with headphones I miss everything but I guess that's a good thing lol.
Anyways thanks for the help

I don't ever remember hearing about that option built into a rom--
But, as Google is your proverbial friend--maybe this--it is for text messages, maybe something else available for more notifications--

I use this app, simple and does exactly what it says it does. Turns on your screen when you get a text, nothing more nothing less.
I bought the pro version, there is also a free version that does the same thing.
There used to be an stock option in sense, I'm not sure what version they took it out in.
