Simply put, I appreciate all that you do, and all that you represent. It is a very large and growing medium, and the ability to learn here is so vastly diverse and ever increasingly expanding that one could take a lifetime to absorb even a fraction of what you have to offer, bravo XDA bravo!

I am agree too. Thanks!
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] c_live_lee:
Glad you decided to post the tutorial after all.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] McLabia:
Heh. I really wasnt going to. I was hoping that Cy would do it so i didnt have to.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] Cy_n_ic:
nice write up bro! alot of peeps can benefit from this info. wish i had the time to do one myself but lately learning m10 editing has taken up alot of my time. :D
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] McLabia:
Well, all real credit goes to you anyways. Thanks for showin me how to do it man. Really appreciate it.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] jcnyc:
Awesome def putting my Alma mater with this one
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] c_live_lee:
It may be slightly conservative but, I like it a sh1t load better than that grid thing. I also changed out the Dark Horse lock ring for one with a little more shine. Thanks to Cy_n_ic for teaching McLabia how to do this because he practically had to hold my hand through my first shot at this! Thanks for showing me this Mc. :D
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] dhaymond:
Does it have to be the idle weather apk? The weathers really in the way of the images right?

*WALK in the WORD*
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] cowboys4life22:
I followed the instructions and when I reboot and boot up all the way, the weather doesn't show anymore. What I get instead is a black screen that will go back and forth between that and new background to lock screen. Thanks for the tuturiol hope you can offer some insight to get it to work for me.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] Stoney 666:
What's up cyn.... Been a long time homie! Good to see more familiar peeps in Bolt land....
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] McLabia:
Like I said in the last part, you can do this with any of the other lockscreens. Pick which one you want and swap the images. I havent tried this with other ones, but the principal behind it should be the same. As far as the weather being in the way, yeah it is a bit, but I knew that going into it. I just didnt want that boring ass grid background from before.

Try doing it again. Go step by step with it and it should work. It has worked for others. Not sure where youre having the issue though. If you do it again and still have issues, pm me and well see if we can get it figured out. I might add some screenshots to make it a bit clearer.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] rlivin:
works great! Thanks

anyone know what file name the wallpaper lockscreen is?
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] McLabia:
Eh, you dont really need the wallpaper one because you can set it inside of the personalize menu. The others you cant.

Also, if you do this, Id be interested in seeing what some of you guys put together. Post up some screen shots.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] rlivin:
i guess your wallpaper lockscreen couldnt be different than you regular wallpaper. wasnt thinking about that.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] McLabia:
I think Im confused about which lock screen youre talking about then. Each of the four main lock screens has an image associated with them. The Weather one has the blue world grid one and Photo album has the grayish one. The wallpaper and clock ones I believe have the desktop wallpaper that you already have chosen on your desktop.. I may be wrong about the clock one though.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] rlivin:
you are correct about the images.

This is my first.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] McLabia:
Thanks for the confirmation. Other than the whole Alabama thing, it looks good! lol
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] rlivin:
Thanks, ROLL TIDE!
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] c_live_lee:
Hey Mc. I was wondering if you've had any trouble with your weather locks misbehaving on the latest nightly? Since I flashed the 7/10, I can't run them. They come and go, alternating between black screen and lock screen. It works while its there but I have to catch it at the right moment. I've tried wiping, not wiping, known working lock screens, newly made lock screens, etc. The only one that works for me now is stock. Any guidance on this?
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] xXJay_RXx:

Since we're into the customizing lockscreen scenario, has anyone tried or found out where the text on the lockscreen is hiding?

Verizon Wireless

8:35 PM

Sun, Aug 21, 2011

I tried searching around in Idlescreen_Base.apk but had no luck.

I wish I could get rid of that thing.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] c_live_lee:
If you're on a Thunderbolt, I may be able to help. Hell, even if you're on something else, I may he able to help to some degree. What ya got?
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] McLabia:
He wants to remove it, not change the font. :-P Seriously though, if you know how to remove the clock spill the beans. I wanna know too. lol.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] johnnysyeah:
Oh, sorry. I didn't specify anything at all.

I'm using the Thunderbolt, on Liquid GingerSense v1.6.

I figured out how to just completely disable the weather so that it doesn't appear over my wallpaper, but now I just want to get rid of those texts too.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] c_live_lee:
oh, I guess I should have read back a little further or something. That's not how it sounded. :D
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] McLabia:
Eh? Whats the point of a lockscreen if you dont want anything on it? lol. You can just use the normal lockscreen. It doesnt have anything on it other than the shortcuts on the bottom as far as I know.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] johnnysyeah:
Is there a lockscreen that has the ring, 4 APP icons, and just wallpaper?

EDIT:

Oh, and also, I would like the wallpaper to be something separate than the home screen wallpaper, that's the main reason why I'm tweaking around with this.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] McLabia:
I believe thats the first lockscreen that the phone is on. Im not sure if it has the clock on it or not because Ive got it removed. Did you check fusion.apk?
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] johnnysyeah:
The first lockscreen the phone is on has it also.

And no, I didn't check fusion.apk.

I'll take it a look at it after my recovery is completed -_-

I went into the Liquid Toolkit goodies and changed the lockscreen to sense 2.1 and after it rebooted, my phone kept freezing.

Had to use adb to go into recovery so I can reload my backup from earlier today before I started messing around with the lockscreen.

EDIT:

And another reason why I want to get rid of the big clock is I find it redundant to have it there because there's already a clock on the status bar (though it is smaller).

There's something wrong with me; I have OCD and get very particular like that, haha.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] c_live_lee:
I can't guarantee anything because I can't test it, due to a not rooted situation I'm in, temporarily but, this could work. http://www.angelfire.com/pr/pgpf/if.html

If it is what it says it is (at work and can't check it out at the moment) it may be just what the doctor ordered for a clean clear lock screen. Use my tutorial and let me know what happens if you try it. :)
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] McLabia:
ARGH! You damn OCD people man....lol. Yall mofos need to smoke a bowl and build a bridge. lol. Well, there are mods to remove the clock up top. I dont know where they are or what you do, but then again, I use fancy widgets pro on my phone. lol.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] McLabia:
Update, might have a lead on this. Ill report back when I know for sure.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] johnnysyeah:
Hm, I'm thinking in order to get that to work, I need to know where the text is located first, right? Maybe it could be in fusion.apk; I'll check it out.

Not quite a bridge, but last Sunday morning, I woke up from a party Saturday night and holy moly, my backyard was all cleaned. I asked my friend who cleaned it, and he said:

"Dude, you took hella shots and then we forced you to take like 3 hits when you got too drunk to resist. Then I think you blacked out and cleaned up the whole backyard by yourself. You even sorted out the recycles from the trash!"

And I don't even remotely remember ever cleaning anything, haha.

Back on topic: I gotta find that mod!
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] johnnysyeah:
That would be awesome! I'll be waiting for an email alert on my phone :)

EDIT:

Nope, doesn't look like it's in fusion.apk.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] McLabia:
BIG THANKS TO CY_N_IC for this. He told me and I transcribed it. enjoy!

Try this.

Find /system/apps/idlescreen_base.apk and open it in the m10 editor.

Once open navigate to Lockscreen_time.m10/0x0dc10c5e/lockscreen_time/timeline.time_fade/text.lockscreentime_ and where you see where it says Visible=1(bool) if you change this to 0 it will be hidden. You can do this with each of the items there. Remember in binary 0=off and 1=on.

Once you make the changes, go back and save it. Push with ADB or replace in a root explorer like normal. Reboot and enjoy.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] c_live_lee:
edit: No longer relevant.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] johnnysyeah:
I initially tried that method before I consulted you guys.

But I'll try it again just to make sure I didn't overlook anything.

UPDATE:

It works!! I set 0 to a whole mess of stuff and tried it and it worked, haha.

Thanks a lot, McLabia, and CY_N_IC too!
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] McLabia:
Make sure you not only do the operator but the actual line as well for whatever you want gone.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] johnnysyeah:
I found which one is which, and now I'm playing around with the placement too. Haha.

The only thing missing is the date, so I'm going to put it there in place of the "Verizon Wireless" text.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] McLabia:
Nice. Ill be doing this to my own later. Toss up some screenshots if you don't mind.

[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] McLabia:
In the op, i posted two tips. One being that you need to zipalign. There's a zipalign tool in your ADB tools. It could also be because of the color profile ofvyour image. Change it to rgb and youll be good.

Sent from my rooted, Dark Horse INFECTED Synergy bolt running Ziggys latest.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] donnyevo4g:
how do i change color profile? no clue at all how to do that
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] donnyevo4g:
and i dont no how to use zip allign its not in my adb tools i cant run the cammands im stuck i have no idea what to do and im no noob but this just dont make sense to me can you walk me threww?
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] donnyevo4g:
nvm i found zipalign in tools i was able to command into it but what do i do next?
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] McLabia:
In M10 editor, you should see a line where you can add in the zipalign tool like this

Then in your image editor, under edit, you should see stuff about color profiles.

Make sure its RGB and not CMYK
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] donnyevo4g:
what image editor are u using?
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] donnyevo4g:
ok THANK YOU SO MUCH i got it to work thank you for your time and help this is great

[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] donnyevo4g:
one more question is there a way to get rid of the weather so u just see the wallpaper?
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] McLabia:
Wait, what? Why even do this is you dont want the weather? The stock lockscreen shows the wallpaper.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] donnyevo4g:
cause my wallpaper is different then my lockscreen wallpaper and the weather kind of covers it up
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] McLabia:
Well, yeah. Thats the point of it. To have something different, but also keep the weather.

[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] blackdog7:
Hi,

I created my own background as it wrote in the first post. After the reboot, the weather animation looping always, it don't want to stopping. What is the problem?

I attached the flipped background image, which is an optimized png with 64 color (6bit) for the smaller filesize. I attached the apk also.

Thx in adv.

B.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] McLabia:
Ill get it worked out for you shortly.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] blackdog7:
it would be great!

thx,

B.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] McLabia:
Alright dude, I posted it. Check under Black Dog and lemme know if you have any issues.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] blackdog7:
It don't working. Now I don't have the animation, the time, the date and it's missing the ring also. What I see at the lockscreen is only the bgimage. So now I cannot using my phone. Of course I can restore the original apk.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] McLabia:
Hmm...What phone are you on? I guess I didnt think to ask that.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] blackdog7:
I have a Sensation with mike1986's Android Revolution HD 3.0.3 ROM
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] McLabia:
Gotcha. I didnt know that before hand. I assumed you were either on the 3D or the Thunderbolt. I honestly dont know if this method works, or the sizing thats needed for your images. Ill check out the apk you posted and see what I can do. No promises though.

I only know for a fact that the apks I make work on the Evo3D and the Thunderbolt. Try them on other phones at your own risk.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] blackdog7:
Evo3D and Sensation are almost the same phone from the hardware side (cpu, display type, memory, etc.) I have the qHD (960x540) resolution too.

I attached my original apk.

Now I'm going to sleep, here's now 0:30am.

Thx, good night!
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] blackdog7:
Hi McLabia!

Did you any idea for me?
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] McLabia:
Everything is exactly the same. I dont know what youre having issues with. Did you make sure to fix permissions? You cant just install these like a standard APK.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] blackdog7:
I didn't make any changes with permissions, because i'm using the qtadb. This works very well with the same process by fonts (simply copy that), by bootanimation and downanimation. QtADB uses apk too.

I'm trying any other yours apk, which would be good. Can you recommend me an apk from your site, which is with 960x540 and works very well on a Evo3D?
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] McLabia:
All of the ones posted work on the evo 3D as well as the bolt. Check the permissions. That's the only thing I can think of.

Sent from my rooted, Dark Horse INFECTED Synergy bolt running Ziggys latest.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] blackdog7:
Finally I got it! I configured in the m10tools the path of zipalign and the adb. Then after the changing of the images I installed it through clicking of the button "Save + Push APK" and now everything is fine!

I attach here the created and working apk.

Thanks for your help!
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] McLabia:
Interesting. The one I sent you was zip aligned, but zip aligning was one of the tips that was given. ;-)
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] blackdog7:
Yes I know. Earlier I tried it with zipalign too. I think the solution was the adb push method. I think this is the best way to installing the modified apk. Then don't need any Root Explorer or anything with the permissions.

I think the m10tools great enough for the full process!
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] McLabia:
Possibly. I havent used it that way, so Im not really sure. Its just easy for me to swap them and fix permissions or to just toss them in the build Im flashing. Glad it works though. :)
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] feedDunk:
I've been having issues too. I was able to set up M10Tools with the zipalign and adb path and it worked perfect. Found it a little easier and quicker than the root explorer way.

Thanks for the suggestions
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] blackdog7:
You're welcome.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] McLabia:
I reposted a couple images in the OP. One being about the zipalign and adb tool on the m10 editor and also the color profile tip. Ive posted it before, but I dont remember where or when. lol.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] soundmanmike:
Worked PERFECT!!! Thanks for post!
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] soundmanmike:
Love your lock screen, I got my all changed around but I can not master the text completely. How did you get the date to be one line, mine keeps going to two lines (wrapping). There is more than enough room too. Any help is appreciated!

Edit: I changed fonts and it now it is one single line for the date. Would like to still learn more about all the m10 configuration values if anyone cares to chime in.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] phil0sophic:
Great stuff all around, my MT4G is just the way I want it. I was thinking about going with sense 3.5 poked around but it seems the lockscreen files are way different any ideas? http://rootzwiki.com/showthread.php?4503-Port-ROM-MT4G_Sense_3.5_v1.1-Released

great tutorial, i have an issue.

i have an htc evo 3d gsm and when i open the IdleScreen_Weather.apk there is no textures showing so i dont see any images. i have made sure that decode images is selected.

I have also checked other roms for my evo 3d and none of them have images showing in the IdleScreen_Weather.apk, but the IdleScreen_Stock.apk has an image.

Can someone tell me what im missing?

i'm running sense 3.0.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] c_live_lee:
I hope I understood your post correctly. Apologies if I did. You'll have to.expand the folders down to.the point where you see three "texture" files all together. Click one of those and the image should appear to the right.
[Thunderbolt Themes and Apps] HackitZ:
Thanks for the reply, yes you understood me correctly, i have edited other m10 files from the rom (leedroid) and have not had an issue.

I guess my issue is I dont see any textures links in the idle screen weather apk.

Thanks again for the reply.
