I have a question:

I have a 50% transparent black image, in which I want to align to the left the missed calls and to the right the unread messages, the thing is, both call the same image, so if I receive both, one appear to be darker than the other...

How should I control the alpha to make the background of the messages, to only appear if missed calls its<0 and dissapear if missed calls its > 0? There is some info about this on the manifest but cant get it to work :S
[Android Themes] HarlanPepper0010:
I can take a look at it if you don't mind sharing your mtz?

Do the chickens have large talons?
[Android Themes] melissapugs:
Glad to look at it if you send me your version and a link to the original :)
[Android Themes] taospirit:
Thx melissapugs, these are the two files in a zip, Orig is the original and ManifestModif after my modifs, i just want to move down the missed call and message sliders of 123 pixels. Hope U'll can help me ;)
[Android Themes] vukandric:
Could you guys with qhd screens checkout if this theme works ok for you now? If it works, I will release it soon, but first I want to change background images, to make it more universal with both dark and light wallpapers.

Here are some that I used (semi-transparent)

and this one should be fully transparent

---------- Post added at 08:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:25 PM ----------

What do you guys think about something like this? I think that font in second picture is better.
[Android Themes] h_zee13:
Damn that's sexy! I like the 12h one
[Android Themes] vukandric:
Thanks. I will make both 12h and 24h versions, but first I want to try out some other fonts too. :)
[Android Themes] sotodefonk:
Sure thing, this is the code about the notifications:

<!-- Notifications -->

<Image x="0" y="662" src="not_bg.png" alpha="#call_missed_count*255"/>
<Text x="15" y="674" color="#FFFFFFFF" size="20" format="%d Missed Calls" paras="#call_missed_count" alpha="#call_missed_count*255" align="left"/>

<Image x="0" y="662" src="not_bg.png" alpha="#sms_unread_count*255"/>
<Text x="#screen_width-15" y="674" color="#FFFFFFFF" size="20" format="%d Unread Messages" paras="#sms_unread_count" alpha="#sms_unread_count*255" align="right"/>

They both call "not_bg.png" which is a 50% transparent black bar, in which if both calls and sms are received, it look like this:

I need to make the sms background to not appear if calls>0
[Android Themes] flyinjoe13:
I created an orange version for you with the same orange color that almanbrother used on his original.

home.comcast.net/~idiotboy13/Orange_srzSHORTY.mtz
[Android Themes] h_zee13:
Here is what you need

Alpha="(#missed_call_count*255)+(#unread_sms_count*255)"

That's the alpha code you need to add to you background image.

Basically it means that it will only show if atleast one of them (missed call or missed sms ) is greater than 1

You only have to declare that image once and that's it
[Android Themes] h_zee13:
Double post sorry

Appreciate the share
[Android Themes] LG_iiNsTiiNcT:
Okay I'm doing another ls and for some reason I'm having a little more trouble than before. I'm trying to get my unlock slider to stop at unlock no overscrolling the unlock area, also is there a way to make it not show status bar icons except message and phone count? Or nothing at all

Thanks
[Android Themes] LG_iiNsTiiNcT:
This is what im working on after I fix those issues ill release it
[Android Themes] sotodefonk:
Thanks, I used it, but it nows appears always, even when there is no notification :S
[Android Themes] h_zee13:
Sorry I'm actually pretty high on meds right now. I messed up with the code

here is the correct code.

alpha="(#call_missed_count*255)+(#sms_unread_count*255)"
[Android Themes] sotodefonk:
Thanks you so much, I didn't noticed the swapped words :P it works awesome now :D
[Android Themes] melissapugs:
I can't test since I don't have service and the unlockers don't seem to show for this theme without having actually missed a call/text, but here's what stuck out on my pass through: lines 34-38

original

</PressedState>

<Path x="0" y="#screen_height-500">

<Position x="0" y="0" />

<Position x="328" y="0" />

</Path>

your mod

<Position x="328" y="0" />

</Path>
[Android Themes] taospirit:
melissapugs thx for ur reply. The unlock sliders show even if there is no missed call or messages.

EDIT: I THINK IT WAS A PROB WITH MY SD CARD, I CHECK IT THEN RECOPY THE FILE AND NOW ALL WORKS. THANX A LOT ;)
[Android Themes] LG_iiNsTiiNcT:
Still need some help lol..

Can someone tell me how to make the lockscreen statusbar only show SMS and phone or nothing at all and also I set a path for my u locker but it still over scrolls I want the icon to stop at the unlock point no over scrolling plz and thanks in advanced
[Android Themes] kitsune_snake:
for the overscrolling unlocker have you set up ur endpoint correcly? I'm pretty n00bish but I think the reached state and the endpoint should be the same to avoid overscrolling.

I have a question myself, if anybody could help me that would be great.

I wanna make a slider that would go from left to right but instead of unlocking, it would reveal more buttons in the screen.

I know how to do the button, and the slider but I dunno what line of code I have to add to make the button appear after the slider reach a point and make them disapear after maybe 3 sec when the slider would retract.

any help would be appreaciated, thank you
[Android Themes] cowsquad:
What kind of buttons are you trying to display. Is hard to display something on the end point and no unlock the phone. If you are trying to display, for example: I drag the unlocker, then half way it display sms icon, I let go, I will take me to sms app. That's is possible. But if you are trying to something else, gives us more details or post you mtz or zip. Explain further, we are here to help each other but sometimes we need a clear understanding of the situation. Thank you
[Android Themes] LG_iiNsTiiNcT:
I didn't use a reached stare ill try that thanks
[Android Themes] picard666:
hey guys,

is there an app that sends me fake sms-es and calls, to test call and sms notifications?
[Android Themes] Fun With Drugs:
Just text yourself (or call from another phone). I know there's a fake 'phone call' app, that you can use in awkward situations lmao.
[Android Themes] Youngunn2008:
Also gmail on your desktop can send texts for free and make phone calls...
[Android Themes] picard666:
i would like to keep it free, otherwise i would text myself (i use calling myself as it is free, but i don't have free messages on my card)

you mean i can send free sms'es to myself via gmail? how?
[Android Themes] sotodefonk:
If you are in a country were it works, you can try heywire, it can sends free sms if it is available in your country, and its not blocked by your carrier...
[Android Themes] cowsquad:
Have you tried google voice man. It sends free txt msgs over the internet :). Don't use it for calls, that is not free. I guarantee You that
[Android Themes] picard666:
i live outside the us, so it doesn't work for me. thanks anyway

i don't actually need real sms. if you know some fake sms sender programs that work well with the ls, that's good, too :)
[Android Themes] h_zee13:
What do you guys think of this?
[Android Themes] Fun With Drugs:
Love it.

Play button looks a little crooked though. Unless it's supposed to be. idk
[Android Themes] picard666:
very niiice :)
[Android Themes] k_nivesout:
Looking good! I'm assuming it's the usual slide to unlock, then tap the camera icon to take you into the cam?
[Android Themes] suprano:
I'm waiting ..looks yummy.

reMIUIeD! ;)
[Android Themes] vukandric:
Looks nice. I love music controls.

And one suggestion, move camera button 2-3 pixels to the right (look at unlock button on the left), it will be perfect then. :)
[Android Themes] vukandric:
Thinking about redesigning my VA sUP lock, because I use that one, so this will maybe be a v2. Play button for music would be music art. And I am thinking about leaving out missed calls and unread messages.
[Android Themes] lancem71:
Release this!!! Looks amazing.
[Android Themes] h_zee13:
Release this as a separate theme bro
[Android Themes] vukandric:
I will work tomorrow on it. It looks similar to sUP so I thought to name it sUP v2. Don't have inspiration for new names. :D btw, your new theme looks really nice.
[Android Themes] omeomyo:
I got a ? And ne help would b appreciated um I have a lockscreen u have to pulldown to unlock but its slow and laggy so I was wondering what part of the xml I would have to edit to speed it up
[Android Themes] sotodefonk:
Guys, this is the LS Im working in, Its based on the concept made by moarbewbs (waiting for reply, check your PMs!), a few pages back.

What do you think about the battery bar? Im not quite sure if this looks good... I could add the glowing shine at the middle just about the orange ribbon, but im not sure about that either.
[Android Themes] HarlanPepper0010:
I'm still kinda new to xml but I think there is a line with fps.. I have seen it set to 20, but maybe you can mess with it to see what works best. Hope this helps.

Do the chickens have large talons?
[Android Themes] Fun With Drugs:
Ooh I like. Do you slide the orange ribbon up to unlock?

If you have the charging percentage already in the ribbon, I don't think the glowing battery is needed.
[Android Themes] omeomyo:
Yeah I messed with that but it didn't help ne thanks tho
[Android Themes] sotodefonk:
Yes, you slide all the lockscreen up (Music controls, notifications, etc), and underneath it shows whatever you were doing before locking the device.
[Android Themes] h_zee13:
Lose the battery charging animation.

Add the notification inside the orange bar like one of the concepts that the author had shown to us.

Other than that everything looks great, especially the music area
[Android Themes] sotodefonk:
Gonna try doing that tomorrow.... right now I dont know how can I fit the notifications in the orange ribbon.

BTW, the lockscreen uses the same font as MIUI, so depeneds on which font you have on the theme manager is how it looks.
[Android Themes] stewi21:
I tried your original sUP and it was kinda hard to unlock, i remember seeing something about how u set up the unlock points in a lockscreen, so maybe ask Zee about it (: i think maybe you should make it so it will still unlock if your swipe goes past the unlocker
[Android Themes] melissapugs:
i use google voice on my pc :)
[Android Themes] kitsune_snake:
I basically wanna make a app dock that would stay hidden until u bring it up. I know how to make the button's png appear and I know how to make them responsive but I dunno how to make the button work only when their png are shown and not while the dock is hidden.

the dock would scroll from to the right and appear out of left side of the screen.

and what I had imagined would be that once you swipe the dock halfway, the rest of the dock would appear, stay open for 3 sec and during that time the app icon would be there and functional. after 3sec the dock would just retract back to the left.

i dunno if that's a bit more clear, my english is rubbish lately =P
[Android Themes] WaLys:
amazing..; possible to share ?
[Android Themes] vukandric:
There is no problem with the code. I can unlock easily. :) you need a little swipe, not a whole screen swipe. :) it will be a little bigger in v2 anyway :)
[Android Themes] vukandric:
After a whole day messing around with codes I have finally made it. :D Clock is either 12h or 24h depending on your general clock settings.

VA sUP v2

Download

http://min.us/mSnTy9bLi
[Android Themes] moarbewbs:
Edit: Updated to V1.1

Let me know if there are any issues.

Should work on every 800*480 display. Anything bigger is probably not going to work.

Known bug: after unlocking the lockscreen shows up for a split second before showing the desktop. This is a bug introduced by MIUI 1.10.28.

I think it affects every lockscreen that uses the Show Desktop function and I haven't found anything to prevent it.
[Android Themes] sotodefonk:
Looking nice! The bug you said its bigger than I thought...

I kinda miss some kind of battery charging text.
[Android Themes] mulletcutter:
this still in production?

might be the only LS to take me away from ICS locker
[Android Themes] moarbewbs:
Yeah I know, it's really annoying :/

The only fix I've found is going back to MIUI 1.10.21.

I'll be adding that in the next version then (: What would you prefer, an animation or just text?
[Android Themes] extrememonkey:
Nice, real nice.... Using this bad boy now!!!!
[Android Themes] jordan23945bulls:
The top bar isn't long enough on qhd the rest looks good though.
[Android Themes] Fun With Drugs:
I've only had this happen to one other lock and idk why that is.

I go to apply your lock and it tells me that it's in old format, etc.

I update to new format and then it forcecloses Themes every time.

EDIT: When I downloaded it, it named it weird..I renamed it and it works now.
[Android Themes] omeomyo:
Aw man that's sweet
[Android Themes] chad24taylor:
Love this.

Any chance of you making a dark grey/gunmetal slider?

Great work regardless!
[Android Themes] vukandric:
I forgot about that, sorry. Will fix it later, I am not at home atm.
[Android Themes] lancem71:
Where is the dl link for this lock?
[Android Themes] Fun With Drugs:
Below the pic he posted there's a clickable "MTZ" pic. Takes you to minus.

[Android Themes] Fun With Drugs:
The only thing I encountered was the song text. It's simply horizontal across the album art.
[Android Themes] jordan23945bulls:
Can i use a clear wallpaper on Sophisticated? And is there a version with the top bar? So I can use light wallpapers ans still be able to see my battery and stuff.
[Android Themes] sotodefonk:
What version of MIUI is your rom? I remember that the rotation was implemented on the newer versions, maybe your rom is old
[Android Themes] Fun With Drugs:
Maybe your mom is old.

No, it is fairly outdated. I continue to run 1.9.16 because it's the most stable version for my phone.

Is this rotation of text thing just for the music, because there are other lockscreens that have diagonal text that work on this rom.
[Android Themes] h_zee13:
The rotation on text fields came on a later version than the one you have.
[Android Themes] h_zee13:
Just replace status_bar.png by the one you want.

Its inside the /lockscreen/advance folder.

And yes it works with transparent wallpapers

[Android Themes] sotodefonk:
Well for the guys who wanted the LS at the current state here it is:

WRAPPED V1-

800x480 ONLY

This will only work with 800x480 devices, I need info about how it looks in other devices to make adjustments. Please test it and post screenshots showing how it looks with and without music controls.

DOWNLOAD HERE

-Slide up to unlock.

-Double tap everywhere to show/hide music controls.

Current known bugs:

Unlocking fast will show the lockscreen blinking for a millisecond, its a bug with MIUI. In order to avoid it, when reaching the unlock target area, leave the finger for a 0.5 seconds, and release.

The former trick will not work if music controls are visible. We will need to wait for MIUI developers to fix this.
[Android Themes] Fun With Drugs:
Wrapped lockscreen.

Music controls and notifications work fine.

Two things.

Could you please make a 12h version with battery/status bar visible?

This lock is awesome though. I don't mind the notifications not in the orange bar. Feels less cluttered w/o them there.

Also, I didn't notice any kind of flashing when I unlocked it fast or anything.
[Android Themes] sotodefonk:
Wrappedv1 12H with status bar visible HERE

Although the status bar doesn't slide...
[Android Themes] Fun With Drugs:
Thank you so much. :]

It's fine though. It's not a big deal.

So we got like 7 new lockscreens today. Nice. They're all awesome.

This is what I got when I tried to thank everyone's post;

"Sorry, you are limited to five thanks per day"

What kinda **** is that?!
[Android Themes] melissapugs:
xda being kinda lame, with no plans to change the policy. bummer, I know. There's a complaint thread for it somewhere on here

[Android Themes] Fun With Drugs:
MUST HAVE THIS WALLPAPER. PLEASE.

[obligatory lowercase text, so XDA will be happy]
[Android Themes] stewi21:
you should make a second version for only the gameboy wallpaper with the album art in the square in the gameboy screen :P

oh and it looks snazzy, my only criticism is that you could move the album art in the centre and enlarge?

Oh and @ Zee how do i change the colour of the battery bar above the status bar?
[Android Themes] snapz54:
there is a new LS in the MIUI theme changer app that I can't find any info on really. Under "online lockscreens" and the heading "latest" there is a LS named "7mui" under author it names "lsm!ne" I've searched and can't find anything?

My question is this. the theme is clean and sexy and modeled after metro UI in a new and interesting way, but it needs a little help. Even with resets some chinese text remains, also, sizing might need a little work.

If you haven't checked it out please do, can anyone take on this project and give us a version of 7mui?
[Android Themes] Larsko:
hi guys, sorry i'm a little offtopic but do you know why my lockscreens always jump back to their original positions after i unlock them.. doesnt look that good :/
[Android Themes] stewi21:
its cuz they dont include the unlocker bounce code, more info is available in the OP where it has a link to a page on manifest codes. If youre not confident editing the manifest yourself, your best bet is to ask a dev to add it for you
[Android Themes] vukandric:
7mui looks really interesting, but I can't do anything until the end of the week, I have a lot of private work to do. But after that I will probably make something based on it. :)
[Android Themes] jordan23945bulls:
Thanks. Yeah but i can see all my icons :(
[Android Themes] wez89:
That's what a transparent wallpaper will do, it will show your home screen or your last screen you viewed before locking.
[Android Themes] q9650:
Mate, could you do one right handed with whatsapp, stock android browser, phone and SMS? :D ty much
[Android Themes] 8ESP:
I know how to get the package but not the class.

I use ADB and type:

adb shell

pm list packages

How do you find the class?
[Android Themes] kaimyn:
Check out the how to in the first post.

Install launcher pro, long press the desktop, add shortcut -> activity -> you application.

The classes are listed out, and you typically want the first one.

Thx in advance bros!!!

The MIUI lockscreens are only for MIUI. Unfortunately, anything on MIUI is only on MIUI.

So you can't really download it, or install it without MIUI. Sorry to burst your bubble.

I tried to look thru all 45 pages but did not fnd it.

How do I add lock screen music control except for the stock ones?

I did not find any lockscreen style that has music control?

any suggestion?
[Android Themes] UniqueNate:
I just want to say these things are beautiful. Really nice work. I've been away from MIUI because some themes won't change everything cosmetic wise for me and that bothered me. It's like only half the theme would work. It was like that for almost every theme that I would try. Other then that I love the looks and common sense features some phones or OS are missing.

Update: Do I have to be on 1.7 for these lock screen themes to work? Asking because NS4G is behind on 1.6.17 and these new themes for the lock screen only give me the wallpaper when I try to apply it. The actually mod in the middle are not there.
[Android Themes] johny.moloko:
1.6.24 works for me very well..not sure about .17. why don't you just try it then. just do nandroid backup first..
[Android Themes] LordManhattan:
1.6.17 also has the lockscreen bug. The one where you can't get past the PIN input screen. That was fixed in .24.
[Android Themes] SubyWill:
I still have that problem on 1.7.1 :(
[Android Themes] 123schiff:
Any chance where you can change the " Device Locked " to show the Day " Monday, Tuesday... etc "..

Just a thought..
[Android Themes] vukandric:
I was thinking about that, but won't do it soon because I don't have time for it. And it is not that easy with days because of huge difference in length of words (Monday vs Wednesday for example). It just doesn't look good when you have shorter word because you must make enough space for longest one and then you have some empty space that I really hate in designs like this :)
