[Android Themes] claimui:
Thanks byrong, this is great info!

In my case, I wanted to just add an additional line with my contact info without hiding the other text elements. So I just added an extra LinearLayout text block underneath the pattern lock dots. I made the font size a little smaller and fit it on one line so it would not significantly affect the look of the pattern lock screen.

Here is my change highlighted in red:
