[I5800XXJPA] Original Stock Android Lock

Hello ..
I was boring by the samsung glass lock screen, so, using a tip for the galaxy S which you can found (here, i made a fix for our Galaxy 3 to have the cool lock screen from stock android
So here is the simple method (For the ones who are in I5800XXJPA) :
push the android.policy.odex attached to this post to your phone, copy it to /system/framework, and it's done (make a backup of your /system/framework/android.policy.odex before ).
Reboot, you will see the new lock screen (maybe not immediately, don't ask me why).
If you want to build a new one, you just have to follow the instructions in the topic above, but at the part 4, just replace:
"GlassLock" with "TapLock" in the method.
I'm not responsible if you brick, damage, explode your phone. If i were you, i wouldn't do that before i know how to flash my phone.
the android.policy.odex supplied DOESN'T work on other firmware than I5800XXJPA (at least, it shouldn't so don't try), if you want it on another firmware, you have to do it yourself.
It works for me (Samsung Galaxy i5800 "Teos", bought from SFR, France, firmware I5800XXJPA).
Can you please post a screenshot before I explode my phone
Here it is
thank you very much working in my galaxy.
You're welcome
I found out a bug: If you have a new message, the Glass lock might appear... I'm trying to fix it.

Thanks for this. I installed this, and it works nicely, although the Glass lock appears when a missed call or message is there. And another thing. On the stock lock, the phone can be unlocked by pressing the menu button instead of dragging the unlock slider. Is this normal for the stock lock or is it another bug?

Flash with JPA. You have to re-put your provider's APN on the phone (it's in the settings, in "mobile networks").
its ok now im with JPA ;]
I'll port this on JPB soon in next week. And make a automatic patch script for Linux users .

[Q] Install weather pack after installing rom

Hi everyone,
Fisrt time poster
Firstly I have searched for my answer and I only found the question http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1040121&page=199
the person who found the solution did not want to share it.
Anyway, I just flashed my Desire with Cool3D Sense 3.0 v6 using this tut http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1016084
Everything is fine, but I would now like to flash the weather pack. So I transfered the zip file to my sd card and tried to boot the phone holding the down volume button, and it doesn´t work!
what do I need to do?
Thanks in advance
Ok a little update,
I forgot to mention this is my first time flashing rooting a phone!
So after looking through the forum I read something like flashing all the stuff you want before rebooting, ok so I can boot into the boot loader? ok a bit more searching and I think I might not need to, I can use Rom manager...Great! actually not really. The Android Market wont download anything for me, it just stays on download starting.
I downloaded Rom Manager from another source and can´t install it cause I need a file manager which I can´t install either!!!!
HELP!
I know this probably sounds ridiculous and probably funny to most of you but I´m really getting frustrated.
Any reply would be gratefully appreciated!
right so I had to turn off fast boot in settings-power-fastboot
Thanks for all your help!

"HTC Sense has sopped working unexpectdley"...on top of the box is written, "%1$s is now running"..
everytime i click on " Return to %1$s"....as there is no other option....it just pps straight back up.
i tried going into recovery mode, then restore, but it said something like file type not matched or somehting like MD5...something like that...dont exactlt remember..pretty much ****** up rite now.
i tried doing that couple of times...nothing worked out.
i am totally freaked out....now pls can anyone help me find a way out...ill do anything, just tell me how do i either remove either sense or this rom...anything..

[Q] a problem with T.R.I.D rom on gt-s6310

i don't know if this questions have been asked 'coz there are more than 1000 pages of questions and to look on all of them means to lose prolly more than a week...
well,i did install that rom,T.R.I.D rom on my gt-s6310,thing is that now when i was trying to push the the other 2 files i got into a problem,i entered in the download mode and when i typed adb devices....suprise,no way to find my device conected to usb,i tryed many times and still nothing,so how can i push that file if the device is not seen ? i have to say that i didn't had that problem be4 installing that rom,so i will like to know if there i missed something or not,i do have installed all in my pc to can make those changes but for some reason i can't see my phone connected,i have in my phone those 2 options activated too...
the other problem i've found was when i did installed the new icons zip file thru the CWM as it said i have to do it and wow,my phone remained stuck on the recovery loop,every time i was rebooting,the phone was getting back in recovery...
i thank very much if someone can help me solve those 2 problems...
i do like very much that custom rom on my phone,it's pretty amazing.
or maybe is another way to push those files without the adb ? maybe using kitchen somehow ? i'm not an advanced user in those things,but maybe someone can explain it to me how to do it if can be done that way...
thank you very much for any help

When I restart my phone I stay stuck too ( SM-205F )

If you really want help or have time to help me, you must know the full story
Guys please, I want your help, I am very, very tired of this problem
I had rooted my SM205F
I put it on "ODIN" and it really worked
And I rooted successfully
Now there is a problem
When I restart the phone or turn it off
Or when it runs out of battery and put it on charge
Suddenly back to Download Mode
And when I restart my phone, the same thing happens, which is going back to the Download Mode again
I thought for a while and said, "Ok, let me put the root file again and flash it, I think I'll get out of this mess." I did this and it worked, then I restarted my phone and then found myself also in the same place..When I put any file it really works, I am still in the same place and the only solution is that I am working completely software for the device
This means that I always delete everything on the device
This went on for two days and I couldn't bear it anymore
So I found another way to root
Which is to install "TWRP" recovery on the phone and root it instead of the "ODIN" program, and I did that today
And I succeeded in making a root
But I found out that I was still stuck too
I tried to find a way out by using "TWRP" or writing code, but it didn't help
I don't want to delete everything on my phone and do the same routine every day. This makes me hate my phone and hate something called root.
And I came here because I heard that this place is wonderful and that there are people who help each other solve other people's problems
This is a beautiful thing
Therefore, I want your help and benefit in order to overcome this problem
I have no problem getting stuck here
The problem is that I don't want to delete my phone data let me say for the 11th time
If you have a solution .. please help ..
Right now I'm still stuck, but I'm not going to do anything. I want your help
Thanks.
Hint: Add "SM-205F " to front of this thread's title thus mainly owners of such phone get addressed
