You all know this lockscreen.
I really loved it but after a short time, I felt the demand to personalize it.
This guide is n00b friendly and takes a lot of time reading but not creating it, because I'm trying to make it as easy as possible.
HINT:In the following thread Lockscreen is abbreviated as LS and your Android is abbreviated as mine- the I9001.
contents:
1.What are the basics to know about a LS? (Preparations)
2.How to edit the LS
3.Collection of examples that we have created and want to share.
4.Q&A and REQs

Preparations
What you need:
As in almost every guide from me, there are 2 ways here:
Way ONE (I9001):
*your mind
*time to read
*imagination and creativity.
*your I9001
*Explorer or similar
*optional:[URL"https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.alensw.PicFolder"]QuickPic[/URL] for editing the solution of your icon and Cutout Maker to remove the background
Way TWO (PC):
*your mind
*time to read
*imagination and creativity.
*your PC
*Apktool, 7zip or similar
*Notepad++ or similar
*optional: Photoshop for editing the solution of your icon and removing the background
BOTH Ways:
*download the framework-res.apk of your favourite rom, like AOSP ICS, CM9, AOKP, ProjectStock, etc.
- You can extract it from your rom. It's inside /system/framework
If you cannot decide which framework-res.apk ypu would take, I extracted and described some in the next post.

how to edit
choosing right FRAMEWORK-RES.apk
In general, Framework-res.apk determines how to unlock the lockscreen.
It's not easy to explain, so I prepared some for you:
ProjectStock 4.0.4 LS
This framework-res.apk is made by me and currently used in ProjectStock 4.0.4. The difference between mine and the "stock ICS" is, that mine will unlock at any point of the outerring.
Download framework-res.apk
OutOfRange
Just the same like above but the unlock area is above.
would be better if you see the video from above and imagine upside down.
Download
"Stock"ICS
Used in CM9/AOSP ICS/AOKP and other. ic_lockscreen_chevron_right starts 3 times and leaving the screen on the right. No further explanation needed. Download
GalNote LS
Similar to "Stock"ICS but you cannot change the lockscreen wallpaper, it's the same like your default wallpaper. has four fixed buttons. Original thread HERE

Vibration Free LS
Just the same like the "Stock"ICS one but with no vibration. Original thread HERE by stuffynet

FRAMEWORK-RES.APK
Way ONE (I9001):
1.Open Explorer app and go to the direction where your framework-res.apk is located.
2.Make a long press on it and select "extract all".
3.After you done that, go to /sdcard/Speedsoftware/extracted/framework-res/res/drawable-hdpi/
this is the location of almost all frameworks of your rom, you can change them like changing the lockscreen. but be careful and please do not report if it's not lockscreen related, however you can pm me.
4.you will see a lot of frameworks, ignore them and head to the file named:
Code:
ic_lockscreen_XYZ.png
every file here got something to do with the lockscreen. You can mod every file but the most frequently used images are illustrated below.

When you edit an image the following things are important:
* the PNG file must always retain the same size. you can do that with quickpic or photoshop
* the name of the file must not be changed.
* every file that exist cannot be removed. however you can make it invisible by using a empty.png (in attachments) but don't forget to size it.
* no extra file must be added
* it must always be a PNG file. if not you can convert it with using a file converter.
! Important: this is the part where you can get FC's or even brick your phone ! so be careful.
after editing the image:
Way ONE (I9001):
* open Explorer app and make a longpress on the framework-res folder. press zip this folder and after zipping, just simply rename it to framework-res.apk
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Way TWO (PC):
*zip the framework-res folder and rename to framework-res.apk

choosing right FRAMEWORK.jar
here are 2 different versions of framework.jar:
ChevronMiddle
ic_lockscreen_chevron_right starts in the middle 5 times and growing bigger. used in ProjectStock 4.0.4 (attached).
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
ChevronRight
the same used in "stock"ICS. (attached)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
more are coming soon.
after making the .apk
*MAKE IT TO A FLASHABLE .ZIP TO SHARE MORE EASILY
*Integrate into a downloaded rom, just swap the framework-res.apk and framework.jar and flash.
*Pushing it via ADB
Code:
adb push C:\Users\ME\Desktop\framework-res.apk(wherever your file is located) /system/framework
adb reboot

All credit for how this works goes to the following poster dhiru1602 - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1027935
I wanted to learn how to do my own custom overscroll (color etc.) for a theme I'm building. Anyhow, it turns out to not be so complicated if you know what you are doing and are a developer. This is mostly for any devs out there that want to include overscroll in their Gingerbread themes.
TEAM ACID gives back. Please give credit where credit is do, and if this helps ya, feel free to thank us.
PROCEED AT YOUR OWN RISK. I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR BOOTLOOPS, BRICKS, MAD WIFE'S AND/OR GF'S, LOST TIME ETC. lol xD. ALSO OVERSCROLL ONLY WORKS FOR GINGERBREAD ROMS
1. Get the framework.jar file from your /system/framework/ folder
- Make a backup of this file in case you screw up, and need to push it back onto your device, to resolve bootloops etc. (NOTE: I literally just dev'ed this up by following the different directions and had no issues)
2. Open up framework.jar on your computer via WinRAR (is what I used) whatever archive program should work.
3. Copy the classes.dex file from the framework out into your directory
4. Use baksmali to extract the smali files from the classes.dex file (See Required Tools below)
5. Command Syntax:
java -jar baksmali-1.2.6.jar -o <output directory> <.dex file, typically classes.dex>
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
6. Inside of the output directory you will find /android/widget.
7. Download the following zip (Overscroll_source zip etc. see attached files) and extract the files from it and copy them into that widget folder overriding the existing files (Again credit goes to dhiru1602 for these files)
8. Once the files are in there you are going to need to do some work to get the resource ID's for the png's in the framework-res.apk so you can link them up with the smali files.
9. Get framework-res.apk from /system/framework and decompile it with apktool or apkmanager and modify the following file. You need to open up the /res/values/public.xml. Do a search for "overscroll_edge"
10. You will find two items "overscroll_edge" and "overscroll_glow" along with resource ID's as an attribute on those tags. Make note of those Resource ID's, I just put them in a txt file to remember them.
11. Back over to framework.jar work. You will now need to open up /android/widget/AbsListView.smali
12. Search for inside the file "setOverScrollMode" and modify the following lines:
The first is edge, second is glow.
.line 666
.local v2, res:Landroid/content/res/Resources;
const v3, 0x01080261 <---- Resource ID you noted from framework-res
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
.line 667
.local v0, edge:Landroid/graphics/drawable/Drawable;
const v3, 0x01080262 <---- Resource ID you noted from framework-res
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Put the resource ID's into those areas and save the file.
13. Now you need to re-dex the file by running the following command
java -jar smali-1.2.6.jar <output directory you made> -o <name of the dex file, I used classes.dex >
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
14. Open up the original framework.jar via WinRAR etc. that you took the classes.dex file from. Now drop the classes.dex file back into the framework.jar so that it replaces what is in there. Close WinRAR etc.
15. Push the framework.jar back onto your device. I used
adb push framework.jar /system/framework/
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
After mounting the /system directory first.
Don't use a file manager, you really don't wanna get FC's and stuff.
16. Immediately after pushing the file, adb reboot etc.
This is just for testing, obviously you would make sure this is part of a flashable zip when releasing as opposed to requiring it to be pushed while the system is running.
Again I encountered no issues with bootloops etc.
Required Tools:
- Baksmali (extracts) and Smali (compiles back to .dex)
http://code.google.com/p/smali/
- Java SDK to run jar files
- Files required: framework.jar and framework-res.apk
- Notepad is what I use to edit.

Dude keep trying. If you can put overscroll glow on your new theme that would rock. Thanks To both of you guys.

Maybe how would be so kind as to hook it up.... I have the theme zipped up with the framework.jar file, perhaps joe woods be so kind as to allow me to email it to him. Right now, I don't see /public/xml in the framework-res.apk file and I'm not sites how to use smali or baksmali at all. Work is killing me right now so I don't have much time to myself either.

Not sure it will work on an odexed. I have only tried on a deodexed ROM. Once it's deodexed it should work. Theming etc. doesn't work for odexed ROM's.

Nice to see that you've learned the basics of porting a theme.
:thumbup::thumbup:
Tell me, are you using all of the files from the zip? Because my script is deleting files first then replacing'em later.
Go to /meta-inf/com/google/android/ and open updater-script with your fav editor. See what files are deleted first by the script and make sure that you have them in the zip.
Soon ill be making an update to my ics theme which will be 100% from aeon stock files, so the occasional sod (because of zeuses framework-res) will be no more

I'm only using the same files that you replaced in your theme. I just cut and paste the parts of the dman's that I wanted, and essentially put them into a renamed version of your theme .zip.
I did look at the script and understand how that's put together.
Thanks for the help. I'll continue to experiment and learn. Gotta start somewhere I suppose...
I can't wait to see your finished theme. To be honest, your's is perfect minus the wifi and phone signal icons (of course, I mentioned I'm not a big fan of the Mongo toggles, either). I just prefer the look of the stock ones, just the ICS blue version. I'm just trying to get the hang of how these things are packaged so I can cherry pick and make it look the way I want. Maybe I'll learn something along the way.
The next version will be with the stock Signal, wifi and Bat icons and ill make mod zips for the other icons
One thing that i can't find and replicate in the framework-res, is the color of the volume bar. it seems that it doesn't have pngs for that and it has to be changed in some XML file, so if someone knows where it is, please share

One thing that i can't find and replicate in the framework-res, is the color of the volume bar. it seems that it doesn't have pngs for that and it has to be changed in some XML file, so if someone knows where it is, please share

The XML is located in the drawable folder of framework-Res.apk. I think this is what your looking for: progress_horizontal.xml, progress_indeterminate_horizontal.xml. You can change this with UOT Kitchen or Notepad ++ after you decompile. Or another way is to pull the xmls from the framework-Res.apk of another rom that has the color you need. I'm assuming its blue. You can pull them from NeonGT blue or any other rom that has blue volume or progress bars.

Nice of you to share. It's fun to watch the learning process. Baby steps
Just fyi...the framework-res has nothing to do with sods. The framework-res is simply the visual (res)ources the rom needs. The only issues you might run into might be misplaced images or the possibility of bootloops caused by the calling of missing images.

Most likely is not.....U need to de-odex the file first before U can push it or flash.....and as far as 2.20 and 2.23 I think both are identical....one from Asia region and one from US region.....

Where do you find all the png's to theme? Do you need a special program? I remember themeing way back when I had an iPhone and you could use a file explorer (iFile) and find all the png's throughout the system. Is it similar in Android? I've been wanting to do something like that again.

I saw that tool but I dont understand why you need it. I noticed that I could just take the apk, open the archive, and extract the files needed to be themed. After that I just placed the files I changed back into the archive. Then I pushed the apk to /system/app and the app was themed.
The only thing I don't know how to do is make a flashable zip for twrp or cwm.

Swyped from T3DroICS BlueICESense
Most of these directions will work for both ICS and JB, Batt mod and Toggles need to be updated for JB
These mods are for the stock Photon Q. How to install and make your own below.
Special Thanks goes to Rangerbry, without his work here, none of us would be enjoying toggles or 1% battery.
Thanks to mrvirginia for his collection of battery mods here, as well as all the authors of these mods listed there.
As always, I am not responsible if your phone blows up. Always nandroid before changing anything in the system.
To install:
These will work on Odexed & Deodexed frameworks.
Download Zipthemer from the market
Open ZipThemer, open menu and select Update Edify
Select a flashable system zip using the browse option (Rangerbry's deodexed works fine, he also has an odexed zip posted there if you are odexed)and select.Find his work on JB Here
On the main screen press +Theme, point it to where you downloaded the modded zip file from this thread.
You should be back at the main screen, you can select other zips if you would like to flash multiple skins in one flash. When you are done press: Build It. ZipThemer will ask if you would like to create a zip to return to stock, that is up to you.
After it is done boot into recovery and flash the file, unless you changed the settings, it should be on the root of your internal sd.
Reboot your phone and you should have a new shiny skin.
Make your own:
Traditionally, you would adb pull your SystemUI.apk or framework-res.apk from system/app or system/framework; decompile, make your changes, recompile, and push back to your phone. I still do this, well I keep a copy of one on hand that I have already recompiled and use 7zip to move the files around.
Zipthemer does this for you, it pulls the apk, pushes the changes to it and packages it in a nice zip file for your flashing pleasure. The real advantage here being, it is easy to share, anyone can use it because it depends on the apk located on each specific device. Also, it can be used to change any number of files across multiple apk's, in a single file. Or several smaller mods can be combined into a single flashable zip..
The mod file works in two parts, first the control file holds the description and general location of the files to be edited:
HTML:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<themename>MophoQ 1% batt CM9 Circle Mod</themename>
<themeversion>1.0</themeversion>
<author>fallnSaint</author>
<phone>Photon Q</phone>
<rom>Stock</rom>
<themedescription>CM9 Circle Mod 1% Batt Icon For Photon Q</themedescription>
<item>SystemUI.apk</item>
<path>/system/app/</path>
<description>changes the Stock 1% Battery Icon to A CM9 Circle Battery Icon</description>
The important bits here are item and path. Item tells the program what to edit and path tells it where to find it. I use Notepad++ to edit these, it is a nice, easy to use, and free program. When you are done editing, rename the control file to what you are going to name the mod.
The second part of the zip file is a folder named after the item, since most of these mods work in SystemUI/res/drawable-hdpi/ the folder would have to be set up in this manor as well. The modified content would be placed in a folder named drawable-hdpi, that folder would be placed inside a folder named res, which would be put in a folder named SystemUI. All the file and folder names have to be identical, down to punctuation and capitalization.
Once you have all this set-up, use 7zip or the like to create a zip using the control file first, named after the control file. Then add the SystemUI folder to the zip and you are done.
Feel free to use one of the existing mods here to play with it.

FaithCry made some nice lockrings in the Galaxy Nexus forums, has quite the selection. Stop in and drop him a thanks for the work & check them out. I ported a few here, his stock files are for CM roms.
Hooolm made a very nice theme for the Galaxy Nexus, he also has his work on the play store for the Theme Chooser engine in CM roms. I ported over his toggle set to tide us over till then.

You shouldn't have to unzip anything unless you would like to manually add these to your SystemUI.apk, Just download the zip and follow the directions in the op with Zipthemer. Make sure you have updated edify in Zipthemer using one of Rangerbry's Odexed or Deodexed zips (depends on your framework).
Let me know if this is still an issue.
I only got the blue soft key to work... i may just wipe my phone and re try...

Fresh install may be the best, I doubt if trying to flash the unzipped files would have messed anything up, but you never know.
If you haven't wiped yet you could try clearing data on zipthemer, uninstall, delete zipthemer folder from sd, & clear cache. Then start fresh w updating edify...
Lemme know how it goes.

Hehe...yeah...that was the plan
Give me just few days, I'll change them in Friday... (my work is killing me at a moment).
I'll make more of them and few themes - just need one day off work (and family )
Although, Crisys works well (it's black on black so it's hard to see it's smaller).
As I promised, animations will be built feom a scratch and it'll be right size and resolution maybe with sound (if you even want that)

How do you make that happen?
I've tried earlier on when I made some animations, by using scripts and such, but never got it to work?
Is it easy to implement like a build.prop tweak or what?
help is deeply appreciated

I must check for 4.2 and 4.3 IS, but it was quite simple on 4.1.2 and ICS.
Just prepare mp3 file with a name bootanim.mp3 and put it into root folder of bootanimation.zip.
I think it'll work on all JB systems.

What the.. it worked!
I've tried countless formats on 4.1.2, and tried with "android_audio" and adding a line in desc.txt.
Pretty sure I tried with bootanim.mp3 too, but that was also on 4.1.2.
Never tried again when I got the z1.
Sweet!
Thanks a million!
This was on .257 for others wondering.

Well...there's many tools I use.
PhotoShop, After Effects and few small programs for renaming, resizing and building zip file.

Here you go mate...
Gather all png's and put them into folder "part1" for loop and "part0" for animation and start this program.
This program will create bootanimation.zip.
Bootanimation will be O.K for XS and 4.1.2 devices but to work on 4.2 and 4.3 open bootanimation.zip and extract desc.txt.
Rename desc.txt to desc.txt_cust (without extension and add this file to bootanimation.zip (select store mode).
That will enable animation to fully work on 4.3
