Here is my new theme

Simplicity

Simplicity - White v1

Simplicity - Black v1

Simplicity - "Turquoise" v1

PS: for the themers wondering why I didn't just use <DateTime angle="-90"> instead of the way I did, it's because for some reason it doesn't work for me even though I'm on the latest version (1.9.9) and rotation property for Text and DateTime was added on the version before (1.9.2)
[Android Themes] Corvid:
Forgive me if I missed it somewhere in the hundreds of pages in this thread. It's a lot of reading to find out one specific question.

I'm using the 5 way target, from the very first post in this thread and I absolutely love it. However, I never use my browser so it's kind of pointless for me to have it on there.

Is there a way to modify it so that I can replace the browser icon/link, with my gmail icon/link? Or possible an already modified version that I could download somewhere?

Thanks for any help.
[Android Themes] h_zee13:
If you look at the OP, you will find instructions on how to mod a theme.

I'm sure there are some themes with a shortcut for GMAIL, so you can just open the manifest.xml and get the <intent> code for GMAIL and paste it where the <intent> code for the browser is on your theme.

As for the icon, it's a simple as changing the png image file in the theme
[Android Themes] Jirv311:
That's super sexy. Hopefully, you can make it work.
[Android Themes] chad24taylor:
Might be my favorite theme yet, great work as always.
[Android Themes] pomenx:
could u send me the mtz with the "rotation property", let me see what's wrong.
[Android Themes] Corvid:
For a complete newb like me, that sounds really confusing, but I'll give it a shot. Thanks for your reply.
[Android Themes] Mylenthes:
The slider on this one is really smooth but I still favor circles :P

Between the click of the light and the start of a dream.
[Android Themes] Fun With Drugs:
This is a beautiful lockscreen.

Works great.

I have a small issue with the album art while music is playing.

Looks nothing like the clear sharp image you present.

It's totally pixelated and I can't even read the text on the cover.

I know that the music file itself has a huge album art picture that I applied myself. anything I can do to fix the issue?
[Android Themes] bangdrum:
Is there a tutorial for complete noobs on theming these lockscreens. the video doesnt really make sense to me. I have some png's i want to use but have no idea what to do with them lol.
[Android Themes] DevinLeFevere:
Simplicity is AMAZING!
[Android Themes] h_zee13:
Yeah I know but that's just a limitation of the source code...I can't do anything to change that
[Android Themes] h_zee13:
I'm not on a computer right now but if I add this line anywhere in the manifest it wont work

<DateTime x="100" y="100" color="FFFFFFFF" size="23" centerX="0" centerY="0" angle="90" format="MMMM"/>
[Android Themes] cowsquad:
hey h_zee13 what code should i add to the music controls to disappear while unlocking the lockscreen, im unlocking from botton to top but i want them to disappear as i pass by. any help is welcome
[Android Themes] hunter506:
Cool~~ Thanks for sharing
[Android Themes] Jandyman:
These lockscree don't display properly on phones with larger screens? Any fix . . .or any chance of an update which let's the lockscreen resize for bigger screened phones?
[Android Themes] h_zee13:
What's the resolution of that screen?
[Android Themes] runedrune:
Looks like a sensation so qHD resolution.
[Android Themes] Jandyman:
I believe It has a 4.3inch screen. With a resolution of 960x540 (qHD).

EDIT: spot on runedrune :)
[Android Themes] zrex:
Is there a way to go and edit a lockscreen to have it display correctly? I am having the same issues of the lockscreen only taking up around 70% of the screen.
[Android Themes] as0k:
How do i get a lockscreen like the first picture in the first post? I want that one in the middle please :)
[Android Themes] h_zee13:
You have to change the png files to make it fit the resolution of your screen

the link is right underneath the image on the OP
[Android Themes] bobbylx:
Ok, did a search of the thread and found this question but no solid answers. Does anyone know what class I would add to display Unread Gmail count?

I'm not able to find one like that unread_sms_count or the missed_call_count. I tried installing SMS unread count widget from the market and seeing if that would work but it just forces closes, not sure if it's an MIUI thing or just my phone.

Basically I just want to change the Unread SMS on a particular lockscreen to Unread Gmail. If anyone has it figured out let me know.

Thanks.
[Android Themes] :
i got a lockscreen idea

"Push To Start"

make a button like the new cars have now and when you press it make it unlock the phone and put it in the middle of the screen and make it pretty big so it looks cool
[Android Themes] h_zee13:
This is not possible unfortunately.
[Android Themes] Jandyman:
I fount that the normal 'slide down sms/call bar' lockscreen, and all the variations and themes of it seem to change resolution automatically :) Maybe there is some line of code which stretches the image to requires size?
[Android Themes] bobbylx:
I was getting that impression but thought I would try. Thanks for the response. If I get lucky and stumble upon a solution I'll be sure to share it here.
[Android Themes] h_zee13:
Yes there is some coding to change for sure, but it's because some themes use specific png images with specific sizes

for example, if I create a iphone style lockscreen, I will make a background for the slider. The background image will be let's say 480x150.

Well if you use that theme on a phone with a resolution of 480x800 or 480x854, then it will work.

But if you use it on a phone with a qHD screen which is about 540x960, the image will be too short in width. So the image will need to be edited to fit that screen
[Android Themes] forgotteni:
That's an awesome idea. It's too bad I don't know how to make one. Maybe someone could try it out.
[Android Themes] Mko979:
Just wanted to post this screen shot, I did a little Modding to zee's simplicity. Well I just changed the unlocker tab and added status bar. I will upload tommorrow. All thanks to h_zee13 for this amazing LS.
[Android Themes] mbh87:
minus isnt loading for me for whatever reason, is there any other links to the new simplicity themes?

Edit: Never mind they are working now.
[Android Themes] Dandude159:
The new default lockscreen with charging improvments would be my ideal theme.
[Android Themes] Mko979:
@h_zee13,

I wanted to ask you what font is it that your using for your latest simplicity theme?

[Android Themes] Clarion:
Can someone make stock lockscreen from Android (with two sliders) or Sense (not 3.0)?
[Android Themes] Rabidaries:
Looks great! Where did you get that clean glass globe wallpaper from? Looks sweet!
[Android Themes] XTRoRDiNAiRE:
I got it from zedge I think .

The wallpaper is included ;-)
[Android Themes] Rabidaries:
Ah got it. Couldn't get the wallpaper with it at first. Had to uninstall then reinstall to work. Looks great!
[Android Themes] mordydd91:
wow i like it

[Android Themes] cowsquad:
Suck it up man. Just miui lockscreen. No go launcher :( :)
[Android Themes] XTRoRDiNAiRE:
Yo zee on the simplicity LS is it possible to modify it a little to when u get a new message u can double tap on the notification to open messaging app ? The same with missed calls to open phone ?

Tia
[Android Themes] yohappy:
would anyone be able to finish this lockscreen this looks amazing
[Android Themes] h_zee13:
Yeah I can do that. But it will only be done in a week or so. I'm going to be on vacation starting tomorrow, plus I'm going to Tampa, FL on the 23rd

Yes that's one of my next themes which will also be released once I'm back in 2 weeks
[Android Themes] Antennas:
haha, thanks.

As h_zee said, he's been kind enough to put his hand up to make, and hopefully I've given him all he needs to put it together!

h_zee, you are amazing once a gain.
[Android Themes] iggins007:
help!

i need help applying the glow effect when charging. i took the images from MEEGO V.4 but cant get it to work. if anyone can help.

TIA!
[Android Themes] h_zee13:
Why don't you take the code from the manifest also? Just change the coordinates to your liking.
[Android Themes] iggins007:
i've tried but it doesn't seem to work, maybe it coding it wrong.
[Android Themes] h_zee13:
Thanks antennas,

I'm currently working on a request from flipfreak. He asked me many times if I could make a Droid lockscreen so I finally got a chance to start it.

Here is a preview

all I have left to do on it is add music controls and make it fit different size screens and then I'm going to start ur lockscreen.

And then I'm on vacation so I'm going to relax for 2 weeks. :D
[Android Themes] h_zee13:
I just checked it and you seem to have taken the battery images from LG optimus theme and you don't have any code in the manifest for the battery
[Android Themes] iggins007:
can you help me? i'm soo lost!
[Android Themes] h_zee13:
Sure but I need to know if you are trying to have the exact same charging effect as the meego ls?
[Android Themes] iggins007:
yes! and THANKS!
[Android Themes] OSully:
I'd love to see Simplicity and Sidekick on MagicLocker.

Right/left-handed lockscreen

Anyone know which clock is used in the right/left-handed lockscreen. Would love to use this as my home screen clock.
[Android Themes] h_zee13:
That's not a widget....its just a clock made in XML I guess
[Android Themes] yohappy:
Thanks hzee13 can't wait when you put your magic

To work on this one and thanks Antenna for making it possible

M22MIUI Lockscreen

Download
[Android Themes] Winston Lane:
This looks super fresh! Looking forward to it!
[Android Themes] polstein:
I just switched to a MIUI rom, and have a lot of reading to do. Hoping someone can give me a quick answer or two:

Is there a good page or tutorial or something on making your own lock screens?

Is it possible to make a lockscreen that uses a specific widget (embedded in the screen)? F'instance, I love using Android Photo Gallery Widget so every time I turn on my phone I get a random picture from a folder.

(If it's doable, but complicated, any volunteers to help make one?)

Failing that, what I used to do was use a live wallpaper to show the pix. I read somewhere that you can make a MIUI lockscreen with the background set to 100% transparent to pull this off.

Anyway for the moment, I'm using Widget Locker / Agile lock, but would like to learn more about the MIUI lockscreen.
[Android Themes] bluxart:
Another minimal lockscreen, Glass. No music controls on this one. Wallpaper can be found here.
[Android Themes] woutervdkrol:
REQ.

Is there someone willing to make the 5-way unlock with (semi)transparent background? Would be AWESOME. Thanks in advance
[Android Themes] Bluewall:
Hello everybody, just a question :

Can anyone do one of the "basic" lockscreen like the iPhone like, or the button with many shortcuts fit to the qHD reso of my HTC Sensation ?

We have a unnoficial MIUI for it but the theme are not on the center and sometimes, we can not unlock the screen.

So, is there any dev that can make just ONE ? :D

Thank's in advance !
[Android Themes] EndlessDissent:
The title of the thread states "Video tutorial added in OP". It shows you how to make a simple lockscreen.

I haven't looked into making lockscreens much, so I'm not completely sure, but I don't think you can add widgets to a lockscreen. At least, I don't think I've seen any widgets in any lockscreens. If I'm wrong, someone please correct me.

Yes, you can set a transparent wallpaper to show your homescreen. I'm not sure if live wallpapers will work, but it's worth a shot.
[Android Themes] polstein:
Actually, couldn't see the video - won't play on my phone. But I thought it was a vid on how to apply the wallpapers.

Looked at it now. I could possibly get it eventually, but my graphic skills are poor, so making one beyond ripping & tweaking an existing theme (if possible) is probably beyond me. I'll have to settle for asking/begging for help, or sticking with existing ones. For the moment, anyway :)

@Invade This is a great looking lockscreen, I want it but sorry bud your download link is invalid. Could you please repost somewhere. tkx
[Android Themes] Jirv311:
Works for me. The Download link takes you to another XDA page and the actual download link sits there.
[Android Themes] h_zee13:
Alright everyone, here is my new theme:

MIUIDroid LS

MIUIDroid LS (480x800)

Dropbox link

MIUIDroid LS - WVGA (480x854)

Dropbox link

MIUIDroid LS - qHD (540x960)

Dropbox link

PS: Please use the minus.com link first. If it doesn't work, only then use the dropbox link.

Oh and since I can't test the wvga and qhd versions, please let me know if anything is not working or misaligned.

Also to change tracks on the music controls, you have to tap on the left or right side of the album art.

Thank You!
[Android Themes] flipfreak:
Works great on my Droid X! Thanks again zee :)
[Android Themes] h_zee13:
So do you like it? Since it was your request, it would kinda suck if you didn't like it
[Android Themes] XAviierG:
Amazing! Love it!
[Android Themes] Fun With Drugs:
Amazing. It's even better than the original Droid's lock.

Now if only I can get Extended Settings to work and remove the date in my status bar.. ;( I updated to miui 1.9.16 and I can't get the ES to work.
[Android Themes] flipfreak:
Hell yeah! I love it!
[Android Themes] nafpez:
As usual Zee...Brilliant, any chance of getting a version without the wallpaper being slightly dimmed? And also i seem to be having a little trouble with the music controls, i have to hit the pause button a few times before it registers, and when it does register it some times skips the song and then pauses, i get that happen on quite a few themes so it is most likely an MIUI thing rather than it being something wrong with how youve made the theme. Again though, like all your themes, another excellent example to add to my extensive collection of your themes. Keep it up!
[Android Themes] bangdrum:
Mount system in recovery and flash
[Android Themes] bangdrum:
Hey see, I know your a busy guy but if you would will you make this theme?

Maybe add music controls and a SMS and dialer slot like the original miui lock
[Android Themes] Fun With Drugs:
As in reboot phone in recovery mode and install zip from SDcard?

I did that. I downloaded the zip file for the ES1.9.16 and flashed it like that, but it said something like install aborted. :|
[Android Themes] flipfreak:
Did you mount the system? If you did not, that is most likely why it failed..
[Android Themes] Fun With Drugs:
I don't understand the term "mount the system."

What I did this time, is exactly what I did last time I flashed ES. When I had 1.8.26.
[Android Themes] flipfreak:
This forum is not the place where we should be discussing this anyway... but if you go into recovery, you should see mounts and storage, as an option. When you click mounts you should now be able to find mount /system. hit that to mount it. then proceed to install from sdcard. this should do the trick.
[Android Themes] Fun With Drugs:
Yeah, got a little off topic. Thank you though. I'll try that.
[Android Themes] kepke:
Hi h_zee13,

Thank you for amazing lockscreens.

I really liked the Samsung GS MIUI puzzle (the non-transparent) but I really would like to mod it and I wonder if you can help me.

I want that the puzzle of calls and messages will only show when there is an actual miss call or messages, and I would also like the media players control to show automatically when the headset is plugged in.

Last thing, I didn’t see in any of your lockscreens the option to silence control - I wonder if it is possible at all with miui lockscreen?

Thanks in advance.

edit: I managed to get it to show the puzzles when there are missed calls and messages.
[Android Themes] cowsquad:
Me and roinGrindWall finally finished our meizu lockscreen. I would post it up later on the day. It has unlockers bouncing animation and the battery animation looks exactly like the real meizu phone. So it is coming today
[Android Themes] cowsquad:
Some screeshot of meizu lockscreen by cowsquad and RoinGrindWall
[Android Themes] mousse04:
awesome, when will it available?
[Android Themes] neh4pres:
Great work!

Would it be difficult

to invert the "haze" on the wallpaper to the buttons instead?

EDIT:

Bug report, I have found using the WVGA Resolutuon that the touch area for the lock exists from about 3/4 the way up from the bottom of the lock and then up the width of the lock.. Making the center of the sweet spot actually outside the lock icon area.. Probably because of changed res.. Just letting you know.thanks again.

I already released the M9 Lockscreen, but without the Battery Charger.
[Android Themes] mousse04:
yeah I know I'm already using it, but with Battery charger is much better :p !!!

So I'm waiting for this latest version
[Android Themes] cowsquad:
Yeah but the one you release is from the chinise guy, it has a lot of work to done. The unlocker won't hide the clock. A lot of details that need to be done.

RoinGrindWall and I work hard on this. You'll see a big difference on this lockscreen. Bouncing animation on three unlockers, batterry animation, music controls easy to show. Yeah its gonna be a good release.

Probably by today in the evening :)
[Android Themes] cowsquad:
You'll see a huge improvement on this lockscreen man. Trust me :)
[Android Themes] mousse04:
Thanks. Good to hear that. Look forward for the release :)
[Android Themes] h_zee13:
I just checked and the fascinate has a 480x800 screen...so you shouldn't be using the wvga version

That's an important piece of information that people can't miss... I was getting confused because it works so great on my Droid x :)

My first published MIUI LS:

Samsung Galaxy S Glass LS Lookalike

Tested on miui 1.9.9 and 840x480, however it might work well on other sizes, too (if needed, i might create files for other sizes, too)

I wanted to implement the original lockscreen as close as possible, hence no battery bars.

hey hzee on your most recent lockscreen (miuidroid)

trying to get rid of the slider lock icon, but i see that there are a bunch of different pngs and i assumed they were all transparent but just erasing the lock icon in photoshop doesn't come out right

how would i go about doing that.
[Android Themes] TealLeader:
That's quite the first lockscreen. It looks great. Is it possible to make it unlock at any edge, rather than just the top right?
[Android Themes] Blanko6:
cant unlock my phone afeter installing. any idea why or what to do ?
[Android Themes] wowser21:
Not sure why, but did you try holding the back button and hitting volume up?
[Android Themes] TealLeader:
It only unlocks if you swipe it to the top right corner. Did you try that? If not, hold back button then volume up (the built in unlock code for MIUI).
[Android Themes] Blanko6:
thanks guys, got it to unlock with back and valume up ( i did not know you could do that )

thanks for the quick help !!!!!!
[Android Themes] h_zee13:
Well that should have done the job....just select around the lock image and erase it. And yes there should be 5 pngs to edit

Hey h_zee -

I have a question for you SOmeone had posted a mod of your sidekick v3 lockscreen I really like, but the music controls don't open automatically like in v4. Is it easy to add to the v3 mod I am using?

Also is it easy to get the time into 12-hr format?

Just switched back to MIUI from CM7 so I'm navigating my theming all over again :p
[Android Themes] Mko979:
@h_zee13,

Just had a quick question how did you get the unlocker tab in your latest simplicity theme to have that blurred edge? I am working my SGS2 minimal v2 and was try to use gradient to create a colored edge on a transparent tab but I can't for anything get the corners faded correctly. I thought maybe there is another way that I don't know of. I've been trying to the gradient tool in different combinations but my corners are not coming out right. Thanks in advance and loving the new Droid bionic theme btw.
[Android Themes] btje:
Don't forget to upload your lock screen I like it. Thanx
[Android Themes] Rabidaries:
Hey man this is fantastic! Thanks for this! Finally an almost exact duplicate and I love how the puzzle piece doesn't disappear in the hole like the others lol. Is the messaging puzzle piece supposed to move just like a slider or freely on the screen?
[Android Themes] mousse04:
Where is it ;) ???
[Android Themes] :
Maybe it's done when it's done :-)
[Android Themes] Mko979:
Thank you yea I'm sorry I'm still working on the SGS2 minimal v2. I'm adding sliding sms/missed calls tabs for now and will also be adding charging information. Plus I still need to upload the modified simplicity theme. Sorry I have not had much to finish these themes I kinda got stuck on the sliders but I figured out an alerternative that I'm please with.
