^place your custom icon in the folder of your sd card: /data/com.kanokgems.smswidget

when you select custom icon while adding the widget, you should be able to select that file.
[Android Themes] Ste11a:
I finally broke down and brought WidgetLocker because I love all these amazing mods. I'll try a few of these mods tomorrow using APK Manager. Keep up the awesome work!
[Android Themes] Ste11a:
I love it! Thanks for gaying it up in here. :)
[Android Themes] zHk3R:
Adding new mods to the main post later today.

Thanks for sharing!
[Android Themes] tzic:
to which folder? files, lib or shared_prefs? I put it in com.kano***et folder and I only have the 3 choices for icon not including mine

Ok I found it I was at the wrong data folder :/
[Android Themes] zHk3R:
Connect your phone to your computer

Choose data storage/ Mount USB storage

Navigate to data > kankosmswidget

Find your icons and copy them to kankosmswidget

(sdcard\data\com.kankosmswidget)

Unmount your SDcard

Longpress homscreen and add widget

SMS Unread Count

Custom Icon. CUSTOM ICON.
[Android Themes] tzic:
I finaly made it work! I d like to ask something though.

If Hide Incoming Call (under settings/popups) is checked, when I receive a call I see the widgetlocker screen and I dont know who is calling. But if this call is missed by me I get a notification number over my call button (launcher pro feature) or over custom phone icon (sms.unread.count widget)

If Hide Incoming Call is unchecked, when smn calls phone turns to normal screen although its locked and I can see who s calling. The problem is that If the call is missed I dont get a notification number on the phone icons :)

What settings must I have in order to be able to watch who s calling and if I miss this call to have the notifications working.

I assume that with Hide Incoming Call unchecked, phone coun that call as not "missed" despite the fact that it was not answered.

Any ideas on how to fix this issue?
[Android Themes] SuperRayke:
Thanks. Guess I could have read a little more :P Funny thing is i remember being able to modify the apk without APKmanager and not getting any resets... Guess it must have something to do with the newer version?

Oh yeah... not sure why but I'm getting FCs when i put the sound on. Any ideas?
[Android Themes] echohack:
Background to colorful sense and arrow, where can i find it?
[Android Themes] Raadius:
Kimbo, that rainbow mod gave me a crazy idea... lol. I'll shoot for it tonight!
[Android Themes] tux-lover:
i did manage to make the screen mod but im having trouble with the settings.... it kinda annoys me that the sence lockscreen always popups before the lockscreen widget. is there a way to make that go away?:mad:
[Android Themes] britz:
It's really nice apps, I've managed made my own slider. But I try to change the default sound "unlock.mp3" in raw folder with another sound of my own and result is there's a failure in process and return to lockscreen again. Is there any suggestion what should I have to do? I need a modified sound when the screen is unlock...thanx anyway
[Android Themes] S_Dot:
thanks very much for the token mod :)
[Android Themes] andriakaye:
Well, I read all 67 pages and couldn't find what I wanted to ask about, so here goes..

Does anyone know how to mod the icon in the notification bar to make it something besides the white locker door? I've seen screen shots on twitter before where they changed the icon to something else. If someone could point me in the right direction, that would be great. Thanks!
[Android Themes] Fun With Drugs:
It's in the same folder that you'd mod the sliders.

So extract the apk. Then it's in Res > drawable hdpi > "notification_icon"

Then you'd go about changing it like you'd change a slider png.

Replace it. Zip the apk, sign it.
[Android Themes] andriakaye:
blah. which means i'll have to learn how to do all that. lol.
[Android Themes] zHk3R:
Takes you ten minutes.
[Android Themes] frosteddroid:
i came across this at deviantart while browsing and thought this would be a cool style of lock to have....thought id share the idea...
[Android Themes] Fun With Drugs:
And once you learn how to do it, it won't take you a minute at the most.
[Android Themes] andriakaye:
could I get a brief description of how to extract the apk? or a link to where that's already explained, if it is. thanks :)
[Android Themes] faceqt:
I can't for the life of me get it to work, keeps disappearing.

Tried NinjaMorph, tried using APKManager, tried drag/drop/signing with zips, tried the root explorer method and NOTHING worked.. :(

It's worked fine for me in the past thought with NinjaMorph :s
[Android Themes] faceqt:
Exactly the same issue when it used to work. :/
[Android Themes] pinksleeper:
What kind of device do you have?? MDPI or HDPI?? I think that might have something to do with how these mods work also.
[Android Themes] toosurreal01:
once you pull the .apk from the phone (or if you already have it downloaded) you need to put the .apk in the APK Manager > place-apk-here-for-modding folder.

Once you place the .apk in that folder run Script.bat and it will bring up a DOS prompt.

Type #22 and hit enter then select the project (should be #1 if that's the only .apk in the folder)

Then type #1 to extract the .apk.

Mod away then re-zip the .apk (#3 on the list)

Then ALWAYS make sure you sign the .apk before you push it to your phone!!!
[Android Themes] faceqt:
I did that, didnd't work, but doing what he did with the NM and using RE to move to /system/app worked. Lol.

Wonder how to edit sliders to work for lower LCD density. Doesn't fit properly on 190 so I have to use 240, blergh.
[Android Themes] bmckenzie90:
I can't get it to work . The OP said to email him with a receipt for WL and he'd send the modded apk but he hasn't replied. =/
[Android Themes] martyboii:
trying the apk manager method but when i go to script it says "adb was not found, you will not be able to manipulate the files on your phone"

i am using samsung galaxy s 2.2 NOT ROOTED and i dont know much about these things.. help please!
[Android Themes] zHk3R:
You're not going to be using ADB. If you're using the APKManager method you won't be needing your phone until later.

Just press any key and continue the guide.
[Android Themes] martyboii:
when trying to follow the next step which was to extract it, the window just closes on me.. i have no idea why it does that. it doesnt let me go on
[Android Themes] nazrazr:
hi..

i am about to to do this widget locker so i go to market place and bought the widget locker app...then i tried to use the widget locker but the old lock screen still bother me (android patern or slide the screen on Galaxy s) did anyone know how i can disable this before i starting the project!
[Android Themes] martyboii:
you can download the "No Lock" app on the market. its free! :D
[Android Themes] punkmonkey1984:
Thanks for that information works great :)
[Android Themes] S_Dot:
you dont have to sign anything, just push to system/app/ and adb reboot your phone
[Android Themes] capita:
Got the mod to work with apkmanager. :D

But unlock/lock sounds give me a F/C. Scanning through the thread I didn't see a definitive answer as to how some were able to get lock sounds to work. Anyone?
[Android Themes] :
So I did all the steps for the APK correctly and got it signed at the end but when I try to install it keeps saying "Application not installed".

I've done with three times now. I signed it, rebooted and tried to install but it just won't.

When replacing the data files I just pick them from a folder and copy them into the res\drawable-hdpi folder correct?

I don't know what else could be wrong. Please help
[Android Themes] martyboii:
i found out what i was doing wrong.. awesome guide!

but now i got another problem.. when you lock your phone and then try to unlock it again, the home screen comes up then a few seconds later the widgetlocker then comes on. is it the 5 second delay thingy? any way to fix it?
[Android Themes] Shorte85:
Hello, I am a little lost as to how to get the images on my phone after getting the signed *.apk on my phone and installing the *.apk as well.

I followed the APK Manager instructions, however, once I installed the created signed *.apk file I am lost as to how to go about applying the slider that I want to use after placing it into the res/drawable-hdpi folder (I'm assuming you replace it, overwriting the one in the folder with the one you want). Now after doing that and creating the *.apk file, how do I apply it on my phone? Where do I go on my phone in order to select the slider that I want?

Thanks in advance for any help.
[Android Themes] WildAltimaster:
Widgetlocker questions...

So I got all the modding and everything working really well. Thanks for the guide.

I have two questions...

1.Has anyone found any way to add a lock pin or pattern to widgetlocker? Any app or configuration or root method to doing this?

2.Is it possible to remove the clock from the sense ui slider?
[Android Themes] kevin2516:
hello, i found these somewhere
[Android Themes] iTouch24:
has this application been released?
[Android Themes] zHk3R:
It's called "Signapktic" if I'm not completely mistaken.

Do a search for "Stericson" in the Market.

It gives you the ability to sign .apks on your phone. To take an example: You can edit the images you want in WidgetLocker using the Root Explorer or NinjaMorph method - And when you're finished start up Signapktic and sign it. Now WidgetLocker won't disappear from your app drawer etc.
[Android Themes] iTouch24:
here are the apps created by that developer, dont see one for signing apks

http://www.appbrain.com/search?q=Stericson
[Android Themes] snguyen0730:
do ninjamorph, its the easiest way. The only way I got it to work was to move the com.testacoilsw.widgetlocker.apk from data/app to system/app. Reboot after finishing project and it works
[Android Themes] ronnbon:
I can change absolutely nothing with ninjamorph...:( (rooted motorola xt720)

The only way that worked for me was pulling the apk via adb, modifing and pushing it back. Than I extracted this modified apk to my sdcard. To modify it again I do that right there. Than I zip it and put this apk to data/app and system/app. That works for me...
[Android Themes] Max_Pain:
You absolutely do not need to install the apk to both places!

I wish this issue was finally resolved...how many posts on this thread are about people who can't get the mods to work rather than posting about the mods?

Copy .apk from /data/app to sd card, copy to pc, extract .apk with apk manager 4.9 (option 1), edit or replace files as desired, using apk manager 4.9 zip .apk (option 3) and choose option 2 to allow resigning, then using apk manager 4.9 sign the .apk (option 4).

Copy the signed .apk back to the sd card. UnInstall your existing copy of widgetlocker the regular way. Then install modded (signed) version like you would any other app.

This works every single time...so much so that I just typed this from memory!

No need to adb push anything, or ninja morph or meta morph or install two copies of the app!

This works, like I said, repeatedly (i change mine a lot) on my HTC EVO on 2.2...and technically should work for everyone.

Swyped from my HTC Evo 4G on the MetroPCS 1X network!

[Android Themes] berre:
Hi,

Thank you for this post, really good stuff!

After a couple of minutes fiddling it worked like a charm!

Extra question though, I really love the sense one but how can I get the date in the format shown in the screenshot?

My format is YYYY MM DD and I would really like to have the format just like in the screenshot

Thanks a lot and keep up the good work!

Cheers

Ninja morph is terrible
[Android Themes] Fun With Drugs:
If everyone just downloaded the apk on their computer, did the modding there, then put it on there phone, install it using astro or something, it would be done in like >2 minutes, seriously. pirating is the fastest and easiest solution! :p
[Android Themes] zHk3R:
Search "Stericson" in the Market and download "Signapktic" or whatever.

Allows you to sign .apks on your phone.

I can't find it on Appbrain - But I search the Market for "Stericson" and "Signapktic" shows up. It's free.
[Android Themes] LuffyPSP:
anyone? please.
[Android Themes] zHk3R:
Do you have Root Explorer, Luffy? If so just snoop around a bit, but I'm pretty sure it goes the same place. I don't think the /system partition is created on your EXT3 or EXT2 partition.
[Android Themes] LuffyPSP:
i've tried /system/app but it says no such directory. i've tried /data/app but it wont work. i've tried /data/.systemapp but no good too.

thats why i have to ask.
[Android Themes] zHk3R:
Explore using Root Explorer. Find /system/app

I mean, it could be /sdext/system/app for all I know.
[Android Themes] snguyen0730:
what are you using? I used Ninjamorph and i found it. should be all the way in the bottom
[Android Themes] LuffyPSP:
Aight got it. I use root explorer. Never got it working but it worked this time. Its the same directory but adb fails me. Thanks for the suggestion guys. Using the minimal mod right now.

Sent using colourful smoke signals :-)
[Android Themes] thetiger1401:

What operating system do you have?

If you have Windows 7 or Vista try running the .bat script as Administrator.
[Android Themes] darthchilli:

did the mod at work on a PC

and then i tried root explorer again once i finished that

and it worked...frustrating, yet...relaxing now that it works

[Android Themes] Megakao:
I'm using the NinjaMorph method and it doesn't seem to work. I followed all the directions to a T, but still no go.

Everything seems to be fine, but when I finish project and exit, the stock iphone slider is still there even after a reboot.

Am I not even supposed to have a backup .apk file even if it's in a different folder?

What am I missing something here??
[Android Themes] John_Q:
Use apk manager very easy process.
[Android Themes] airskape:
how do i get those "calls" and "sms" icons on my lock screen? i'm assuming they show missed calls and new sms's right?
[Android Themes] John_Q:
Download SMS Unread Count from the market. Add your own icons in the program folder located in the data folder on you sd card.

I also am having issues getting NinjaMorph to work.

I am using a Nexus One running CM6.1, with WidgetLocker 1.2.8.1 and NinjaMorph 2.6.

I can replace, build, and apply projects, but much like others -- when I get to the project, it's a regular ass iPhone slider.

It says to use drawable-hdpi, but I see drawable-land-hdpi, and drawable-mdpi.

Am I supposed to be doing the others as well?

Kinda regretting my purchase of NinjaMorph right now, since I haven't gotten it to work at all. :(
[Android Themes] p3lim:

[Android Themes] hirfian:
Okay, I don't know if this is being asked already here. How can I download and install this?

I can't find it on Market. Logged in through my PC on AppBrain and selecting it there then synced with my Wildfire. It shows on my app list but still refuses to install :(
[Android Themes] b00f:
I just went to the market, downloaded... and then installed.

I think it is soemthing with your phone, not the apk...

[Android Themes] Megakao:

I don't know what's wrong with yours.
[Android Themes] coljuay:

Anyway you can elaborate more on where to get those custom icons

And where exactly to find that program folder to put the custom icons in, I can't seen to find it.

Thanks
[Android Themes] imxron:
its within Beautiful widgets, the skin is called: Flat black.

When your adding the widget to your screen, choose the 4x1 option.

There is also a white skin available :)

[Android Themes] Megakao:
I emailed the dev and he replied with "when it's ready." With that said, it's hard to tell at this point.
[Android Themes] John_Q:
Icons can be found here.There's several ways to add custom icons to your lockscreen easiest ways are using Desktop Visualizer and/or SmS Unread Count. On your sd card you should have a folder named data find the sms unread count and add your icons. Select custom icon when selecting widget.

[Android Themes] thefatalepic:
Please do if you haven't already. Naruto and Bleach are the only Anime I will watch. :D
[Android Themes] thefatalepic:
1) I think it depends on the image your using, if the dimensions aren't correct you have to crop out a rectangle that fits. My guess is, if the dimensions are correct, you can use as high-res an image you want.

2) Push "home". When you go to WidgetLocker through the notification bar you are in "tool mode" so that you can edit everything. When you get to the lockscreen from waking the phone your not in "tool mode". Go to "tool mode" ---> Push Menu to go to "settings" ---> scroll to the bottom -- Here you can disable longpresses and interactions with widgets from the lockscreen.
[Android Themes] thefatalepic:
WARNING STUPID QUESTION:

OK, so once I have the modded apk -- Do I need to uninstall WidgetLocker before installing the modded version? Is it possible to have 2 different versions of one single app installed on the phone?

[Android Themes] dgwood12:
I have a couple of questions for everyone. I am rooted and have my LCD density set to 210 which causes some things to not match up on my phone. The normal sense lock screen looks perfectly fine at this density but the sense lockscreen for widgetlocker is missing about an eighth of the screen. I created a nice slider bar that I would like to use but it doesnt stretch all the way across the screen.

You can see here that the sense ui slider doesnt go across the entire screen. Any way to fix this? Will upping the slider dimensions help? Anyone know the max dimensions we can use?

Now, the second main question. Is there any way to move this slider higher on the screen? For some reason it sits at the very bottom. It is about a full slider's width lower than the standard sense slider. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!
[Android Themes] tux-lover:
thank you for your Png's Aznboiii.... love my Lockscreen now... :D

Here is my current lockscreen, thought I would share it. It is actually by a custom lockscreen that I saw on dA, but it was for Lock 2.0, so I thought I'd make one for Widgetlocker.
