after failed attempt of adb and root explorer Ninjamorph just worked like charm..
[Android Themes] Artholic:
Hi, just let u guys know that i released that my widgetlocker mod on DA

On my EgoQuitStudio profile.
[Android Themes] oz238:
Any ETA on new widgetlocker? guys in closed beta, are there more default sliders?
[Android Themes] DJ Carpenter:
Don't know yet. And nope, same ones. You can get some from the site though. The WL site.
[Android Themes] kevin2516:
you have to buy it, if you don't buy it, then don't use it ;)
[Android Themes] preclajsz:
hmm thx, but i search gold middle way :-)
[Android Themes] RedSkyRoad:
Hi,

Could someone please help me out here. I'm looking for the font used in the "Dark Gradient" iPhone-slider mod. Just spend 2 hours on web but no luck...
[Android Themes] DJ Carpenter:
I think that might be Comfortaa.

[Android Themes] squire23:
I mujst be going mental - I thought of the big new things with 1.3 would be ability to have to go through all this crap to change sliders. It would support custom slider no problem.
[Android Themes] DJ Carpenter:
It is easy. You just put them in a folder. The app is for the basic stock sliders, that's the point. But also allowing custom sliders made by users. Just drop in the folder and select them in the app.
[Android Themes] RedSkyRoad:
No, it's unfortunately not :P Thanx for trying to help out here :)
[Android Themes] DJ Carpenter:
Damn!! I was hoping I'd get it right:)
[Android Themes] th3taman:
DJ, I know you can't share the Beta, but curious if you are using it and if it is easier to add the mods from this thread. Instead of having to create modified apks. Hopefully we see a release soon. Thanks. :D
[Android Themes] DJ Carpenter:
Yes, it's easier but you can't use these. The pngs for the upcoming release are a different size and I thing more images are involved.
[Android Themes] tominabox1:
The update uses packaged themes, really just zips of the image files. All you have to do is put the files in the folder and you're done. No signing adb etc. The images use a sort of .9 thing to stretch (but they are easier to use than 9s) but you'll only need one person to make the files and then share them so it will be super easy. Its close so get excited :D
[Android Themes] HTC_HDD:
Hey Guys,

i have got problems with adb.

i just followed this videotutorial http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_hY6jwTvNQM&feature=player_detailpage#t=126s and stopped at this point.

C:\android-sdk-windows\platform>adb shell mount /system

Usage: mount [-r] [-w] [-o options] [-t type] device directory

Why i get this error message? My device is connected.

Please help
[Android Themes] Bizdady:
Has anyone figured out how to remove the clock from the Sense UI Slider?
[Android Themes] kunu:
THANK YOU! It worked like a charm, I wish I had found this before! Thanks again.
[Android Themes] RedSkyRoad:
Always a pleasure :)

I'm watching this Thread like a hawk for the release of the Customizable WL version...
[Android Themes] punkmonkey1984:
Likely part of one of the .xml
[Android Themes] Artholic:
I'been thinking the same thing, if someone will figure that how it can be removed, please share that info :D i dont know a thing about xml files... :/
[Android Themes] Bizdady:
Already tried that. Tried making fon't transparent and editing it out, both times nothing but force closes.
[Android Themes] s197:
Does anyone have transparent pngs for the "Glass House" theme? It looks transparent in the OP screenshot but the zip file png has a black/grey look to it.
[Android Themes] JN9391:
Is the beta close to get released?
[Android Themes] mulletcutter:
when i try and put the new png files in the apk thats on my sd, copy - paste to drawable-hdpi it pastes them to the root of the sd, its like it wont let me paste/move anything in to it. and when i change permissions and click ok then check to make sure they stayed the permissions go back to where they were.
[Android Themes] EzZn0:
Can you put your custom lockscreen to your system so you dont use an app to make it work?
[Android Themes] F_Spindel:
I´ve got the exact same thing going on here. Does anybody know how to do it properly (or bad or in any way to make it work)?

(I´m using RootExplorer)
[Android Themes] CH3Z:
does anyone have this WL mod?

http://thtothrprsn.deviantart.com/art/Such-a-Beautiful-Morning-197064451
[Android Themes] SUTHRNFRIED:
Followed you method to the letter and WL force closes every time...any advice?

EDIT: zipalign was causing it to FC. Trial and error as it said...
[Android Themes] pr0.:
I did this with app manager, placed "sense mod" locker in like described, signed,

got it on my phone, then installed. Now i can't find where to change the looks

of the locker, am I blind or what? :o

found where to change looks to iphone, moto droid etc... can't find "sense mod" locker that i've put in
[Android Themes] raiderkilo:
I use WinRAR in combination with APK Manager 4.9.With WinRAR I add modded content to app and APK Manager use for signing and optimization.
[Android Themes] avatar_43:
If modded right it'll be the sense slider, You've replaced it after all
[Android Themes] s197:
The APK Manager method works best for me. Just adb pull the apk to your computer then follow the steps in APK Manager. This will allow you to paste over the new pngs and sign the apk. Then uninstall the original WL, put the new apk WL on your SD card and install via astro or other file manager.
[Android Themes] DJ Carpenter:
No one really knows. Something can always postpone a release

Only if you intend on using the slider that is on your phone.

It's like, 10-15 pages ahead in this thread, maybe a little more.
[Android Themes] cowvun:
Can someone help me with the Ninjamorph method?

Are those steps for only iphone slider or do i go through those for every mod i want to use? And how do i replace the normal android slider?
[Android Themes] dhaway_2200:
no more update for the mods??
[Android Themes] RedSkyRoad:
1] Make sure you have the new images you want on you sd card.

2] COPY the widgetlocker file from /data/app to sdcard

3] run ninja and open project (the one copied to sd card), select files to be changed and the ones to be changed to.

4] "Finish" project, zip align and choose YES when asked to delete/clean project

5] Use zip signer to sign new zip

6] uninstall WL

7] install new WL from signed file
[Android Themes] cowvun:
NVMMM I forgot to uninstall TY for your help.
[Android Themes] natious:
I hope the honey comb unlock is going to be in 1.3.

Sent from my Galaxy Tab of awsomeness
[Android Themes] Artholic:
That would be cool. but sounds very hard to make it real.
[Android Themes] EzZn0:
So it's possible? How? And with slider do you mean that if I have for example sense I will keep the sense-slider but I will have the background and clock etc from the lockscreen?
[Android Themes] DJ Carpenter:
On slider I'm not sure. I know on like, Droid(1, 2, X), you can change the tabs in the framework but I don't know what a sense lockscreen.
[Android Themes] 00McD00:
I really like this mod, but I was wondering if someone could make it so that the "unlock" rectangle is the actual slider instead of the "slide2" rectangle. So the part you slide would be the grey rectangle with the green outline and it would be on the left. I'm terrible with photoshop so if anyone understands what I mean that would be awesome.
[Android Themes] artisticsoul79:
I'm having a little bit of an issue after doing the NinjaMorph steps... After rebooting my phone, the new sliders didn't work for me and now I'm unable to uninstall WidgetLocker from the Market... What can I do so I can start over?
[Android Themes] Lekr:
I'm struggling with the signing of the .apk. I've done this so far, ending up with an unsigned file every time:

1) I've put com.teslacoilsw.widgetlocker-1.apk in "place-apk-here-for-modding"

2) I've chosen the image files i want to use, and put them in the res-folder, accepting the replacing.

3) Opend the script-file, chosen these commands: 22, 1, 1 (extract), 3 (zip) and 4 (sign?)

But I've got only two alternatives when im choosing 4 (sign apk?). Im choosing 4 anyway, but the result is an unsigned file in the blah-blah-modding folder. Displayed alternatives:

1 System apk <Retains signature>

2 Regular apk <Removes signature for re-signing>
[Android Themes] DJ Carpenter:
You press 22, 1, 1, then swap out the images. Then, you press 3, 2, 4.
[Android Themes] Lekr:
Thanks a lot :)
[Android Themes] bmwguy330:
1) Open Root Explorer and navigate into data/app and find com.teslacoilsw.widgetlocker-1.apk

2) Copy the .apk to your SD card

3) Open the .apk and navigate to /res/drawable-hdpi

4) Copy the two images you've chosen, overwriting the 'old' PNGs in \drawable-hdpi

5) Exit the .apk and copy it back to /data/app, overwriting the old .apk

You need to be in R/W mode.

Long click the app - Select permissions and do the checkmarks like this (* represents a checkmark)

* . * . -

* . - . -

* . - . -

- - - - - - - -

im confused. I followed the steps but no luck. Do I need to delete any PNG when copying the pics? I love the Angry Birds lock but i cant figure out what im doing wrong
[Android Themes] 00McD00:
Ok for step #5 instead of copying it back into data/app you actually need to copy it into system/app. There will be no overwritting. After you do this then set the permissions and restart your phone. Should be working after that.
[Android Themes] bmwguy330:
And when i open the angry bird file it shows the bird and the slider. do i copy them seprate or both together as 1 file? thanks again
[Android Themes] 00McD00:
Ok so you have the copy of your widgetlocker apk on your sd card along with the file with the pngs in it. So you multi-select all of the images that are in the png folder and then paste them into the res>drawable-hdpi folder in the apk, it should say you have to overwrite the old files. Once you are done with that, you move the apk from your sd card into the system/app folder using root explorer. Then set the permissions to what it says in the OP, restart your phone, and you should be good to go. Just saying this as a precautionary measure, but you should never need to uninstall or overwrite the apk using this method. Hope this helps.
[Android Themes] bmwguy330:
When i originally DL the mod i unziped it was that correct?
[Android Themes] cjcarter1254:
Omg thanks for posting this. After trying several different things this is the only thing that would work. I thought I was going crazy
[Android Themes] 00McD00:
It's fine to unzip it, but you don't have to. You can just navigate the .zip and copy the .pngs from inside of it. Either way works just fine.
[Android Themes] bmwguy330:
I still didnt have any luck. lol. So i decided to try the apk manager method. It was easy except for the last step. I went back to the "place apk her for mod" and found the file. so what i did after that was:

copied it from my computer to my sd card. then placed in data/app

was that correct
[Android Themes] 00McD00:
Well glad you got it figured out, that is the most important thing lol seems to work differently for everyone.
[Android Themes] bmwguy330:
oh it still didnt work lol. getting frustrating. I may try again tomarrow when i am thinking better
[Android Themes] 00McD00:
Oh jeez nevermind then lol I'm going to type out the exact way that I do it for you and maybe you are just missing a step:

1) have .zip of mods on your SD card

2) use root explorer, go to data>app and copy the com.tesla..whatever file and then paste it on the root of your sdcard.

3) open the mods.zip and multiselect all of the .png files from the mod you wish to apply.

4) browse the com.tesla...apk to res>drawable-hdpi and paste all .pngs in this folder. It should ask you to overwrite all of the files that you are pasting.

4) using root exlorer, select the com.tesla...apk file and select "move" then navigate to the system>app folder and paste it in this folder (must be in R/O mode).

6) Once you have done this change the permissions to: 2 checks, 1 check, 1 check. Then reboot your phone and the mod should be applied.

If this doesn't work then idk how to help you lol.
[Android Themes] bmwguy330:
hey man thanks for the help. Whats strange is the when i go to paste the png to the file it pastes them to my sd card not the file im trying to put them in. hell idk lol
[Android Themes] cjcarter1254:
Use the guide from this link. I had the same problem as you and this was the only method I could get to work.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=11243636&postcount=1599
[Android Themes] 00McD00:
Just made this mod up in photoshop, it is a modification of another mod so I am not the original creator and take no credit to be. But here are the .pngs if someone would like to use them. Works pretty well with Gingerbread themes. Again, if the original creator of these has a problem with me posting this please don't hesitate to contact me.
[Android Themes] rfranken:
Do it this way. Someone quote this method once a page to help people out

Do it this way. Someone quote this method once a page to help people out
[Android Themes] cyburke:
haha, just found this - what a fantastic app!
[Android Themes] :
Very helpful, Thanks!
[Android Themes] EzZn0:
So if I have the slider from cyanogen ROM I will still have that unlock and sound on slider that cyanogen ROM uses? I want to get the full package. It is not as cool as it would if I dont get the new slider.
[Android Themes] DJ Carpenter:
I don't know about the sound
[Android Themes] s197:
What worked for me is take the newly signed apk from APK Manager, transfer to SD card, uninstall widgetlocker, then re-install using your signed apk (I used astro but any file manager should work).
[Android Themes] EzZn0:
I mean like this

If I have for example this lockscreen http://noscope.com/photostream/albums/various/HTC_Lockscreen.png

but I want this one

http://i55.photobucket.com/albums/g123/ElizaPewz/snap20101101_195223-1.png

So you mean that I will get the background and font but not the slider? I will keep that htc slider but have a different background and font?

I don't want a widget running on my phone all the time since I have a few running so I want to put the lockscreen on my system

BTW: What's the name on the second lockscreen in the first post? Will the lockscreen have a purple background or does it change according to your theme? And how do the weather receive its information? Is it another widget or does the weather come with the lockscreen?

Sorry for noob questions but this is the first time I have looked on custom themes and lockscreens etc etc
[Android Themes] osmanmert:
good app:)
[Android Themes] DJ Carpenter:
Ohh, you could probably change it to that one, yeah. I don't see why you couldn't. And no matter what, apps are going to be running on your phone so one more isn't really going to change a whole lot. The background changes according to your background.

The weather is a separate widget.
[Android Themes] Hardiw1:
For everyone still having problems, I feel your pain, lost widgetlocker? That was me, lost homescreen widgets? That was me, extremely frustrated? That was me. This method uses ninjamorph and root explorer both from the market. This method worked very easily for me. Follow exactly, don't get in a hurry and you will have it done in no time.

1. Download the mods file on fist post. 2. install widgetlocker and do not open it. if you already have widgetlocker then uninstall and reinstall it and dont open it. 3.open ninjamorph stat checks then click "new project", go to data\app\com.teslacoilsw.widgetlocker-1.apk. it will extract all the files 3.then go to res\drawable-hdpi and scroll down to "slider_iphone" and replace it with the one you put on the root of your sd card. then go back to res\drawable-hdpi and replace the "slider_iphone_background" with the one you placed on the root of your sd card 4.press the back button on your phone and select finish project. choose the widgetlocker one then click \yes\yes\yes ect till it says "all done" 5. then go directly into root explorer. navigate to data\app\com.teslacoilsw.widgetlocker-1.apk, longpress it and select "move" go back to the first screen in root explorer and navigate to system\app and paste it there.[you may have to click the box in the top right in this screen to mount read only data] 6.reboot your phone. widgetlocker should come up upon boot. skip through the tutorial and go into settings\look and feel\ slider layout and select "iphone" - DONE
[Android Themes] Hardiw1:
One thing I forgot to mention in the above post. Before you start in ninjamorph, copy the pngs you want on your Lockscreen and paste them in sdcard/androidthemes folder. This is where you will pull from when you are using ninjamorph to replace the pngs.
[Android Themes] Hardiw1:
The only thing that will be replaced is the slider, everything else will look like your first image except the new slider, that one you are looking for is "sense mod" you need to replace the sense slider not the iphone.
[Android Themes] DJ Carpenter:
He's changing the framework, not the app.
[Android Themes] marshallgeraldc:
is anyone in the beta porting all of these mods? if so, where are they located?

thanks
[Android Themes] DJ Carpenter:
There are only a few right now. I don't think they're being released publicly because the beta isn't public.
[Android Themes] marshallgeraldc:
ok thanks. just curious cause im in the beta and cannot figure out how to make my own.
[Android Themes] DJ Carpenter:
Me too:) I have a few of them. If you want I can email them to you.
[Android Themes] marshallgeraldc:
that would be awesome...marshall.geraldc@gmail.com

thanks!!!
[Android Themes] bmwguy330:
do I just past the new png in or do i delete others then put them in?
[Android Themes] rfranken:
copy and paste it(overwrite the files currently there)
[Android Themes] bmwguy330:
I suck . Ive tried tons of times and cant get it to work. errrr deff frustrating
[Android Themes] Hardiw1:
If you are using the ninjamorph method make sure you put the pngs you want in the sdcard/androidthemes folder first. It can be picky where you copy the pngs from, so make sure they are in that folder before you use ninjamorph.
[Android Themes] bmwguy330:
I did that. Ill try again.
[Android Themes] bmwguy330:
wooohooo thanks that worked. Last question. each time i want to change the lockscreen do i have to uninstall and install widgetlocker everytime?
[Android Themes] EzZn0:
Ok. But how do I put the lockscreen to the system? The only thing I really want to change is the slider.
[Android Themes] DJ Carpenter:
Are you rooted? I can't remember if you are or not, sorry. Or if we even went over that haha. But, if so, you'll need to grab your framework-res.apk from your phone using RootExplorer. I'm not sure what the names of the png's you'd need to swap are though because I don't have an HTC phone. You'll just have to take a look through it and see.
[Android Themes] Hardiw1:
Nope, just add the new pngs to the androidthemes folder, use ninjamorph to replace the pngs in the widgetlocker apk that is in system/app and reboot. Takes 2 minutes.
[Android Themes] EzZn0:
Yes, I have rooted my phone. So I should use the Rootexplorer method? So I don't need to buy widgetlocker?
[Android Themes] Androidfanatic2:
Why would you not need to buy widgetlocker? This thread says Widgetlocker Mods, obviously you still need widgetlocker in order to mod even if you're going to use rootexplorer, it's just one method of changing the files (pngs) in widgetlocker.
[Android Themes] EzZn0:
Because I only want to change my system lockscreen. I want for example don't have the htc slider as default instead I want to have that custom lockscreen as default on the system.
[Android Themes] cjward23:
This thread is specificly for widget locker, you won't find any info on changing the default htc slider. I suggest you search the forums to see if any has done what you are looking for
[Android Themes] Skywing269:
So i finally started messing with all these mods, got the iphone slider replaced into one that I like. The only problem is I have the android style camera and brightness sliders above it and cant seem to get rid of them. Dont see options for them anywhere....how do I get rid of these things?

edit: I am an idiot, please disregard :-)
[Android Themes] nbrider88:
Hiiii

I have a question, that I know has been answered but I still can't figure it out...

I have widget locker, I have used the only method that has worked thus for for me to get a new lock screen, which is ninjamorph. However, I am not signing the .apk so whenever I reboot my phone, widget locker is damaged and I have to redo the process all over again.

is there an easier method of signing the .apk?? I can't seem to get adb installed correctly. I downloaded the drivers via SDKManager but under my computer manager properties, adb drivers are not installed...?

What can I do to sign the drivers and make my widget locker lock screen stick!?

TIA
[Android Themes] DJ Carpenter:
Use RootExplorer to get the framework-res.apk from your phone, and swap the appropriate png's on your computer using 7-zip. Don't use the methods listed in this thread for changing out framework. I mean, you can use Ninjamorph, etc., to change it out, but since it's the first time you're doing it, I suggest opening it on your computer so you can get a better idea of what needs to be done.

Because he's not doing it for WL.
[Android Themes] Hardiw1:
Make sure the widgetlocker apk is in the system/app folder and not in the data/app folder. Ninjamorph method does not require you to sign the apk.
[Android Themes] stragabenz:
Im interested in purchasing widgetlocker and doing some of these mods but I've heard of some issues with 2.3(Gingerbread). Does this app get updated frequently? Has anyone had issues running widgetlocker on GB?
[Android Themes] DJ Carpenter:
Kevin is a responsible dev. so if Gingerbread is causing issues I'm sure he'll be quick to fix it. I can't say much about it running on Gingerbread, I ran it for one day and it worked fine. But, it was only that day that I tried it.
[Android Themes] stragabenz:
Hey DJ! fancy meeting you here...Ok cool thanks I will try it out and see how it goes its only 2 bucks and it looks like a nice feature to have on the phone.
[Android Themes] DJ Carpenter:
I feel like an ass now...I don't remember us meeting? Yeah, it's definitely worth it. I've seen some people having issues with other apps leading back to GB but who knows.
[Android Themes] stragabenz:
Haha don't its cool, I sent you the PM on droidforums about the icons...
[Android Themes] DJ Carpenter:
Which ones? Haha
[Android Themes] stragabenz:
ColorMeAndroid...thats all i can remember =)
[Android Themes] stankostanko:
Just photoshoped different font. If anybody wants .png, just ask ;)
[Android Themes] DJ Carpenter:
Oh, was it those little white ones? If so, I remember:)
[Android Themes] hailtothethief83:
Looks really nice! I would like the .png please!
[Android Themes] Scrupix:
Hi,

I want the theme, but only if is it for WidgetLocker V1.3, I mean if is the theme, not only the 2 PNG's

Thanks
[Android Themes] hachoo:
Awesome. Used the Just Simple version with apkmanager and used root explorer to install the apk. Easy.

Seriously, the APKManager method is so easy... not sure why everyone wants to use other methods.
[Android Themes] stankostanko:
Background is completely transparent and fonts are white so it looks like there is no image. Just save and you'll see them.
[Android Themes] stankostanko:
It's not a theme. You'll have to mod it yourself.
[Android Themes] stankostanko:
Yeah, I use APK methot too.
[Android Themes] Scrupix:
In WidgetLocker V1.3 the app supports themes and they have another PNG's ;)

The update will be released very soon and it won't be necessary to mood the app ;)
