[Q] CM7 Lockscreen Clock - myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Has anyone come across a method of removing the clock on the CM7 RC2 Lockscreen? I have wp clock installed and would like to use that, I came across a fix which only removed "half" of the clock. The method involved changing the clock font file, numbers in the clock was made transparent, but everything else is still there! I've provided a screenshot as a visual aid. Thanks in advance for anyone who can point me in the right direction of removing the rest of the clock.

Widget Locker will give you an option to remove the notification bar. That is what i use.

I'm sorry, I was unclear. I mean in the like top half of the screen, do you see the white "AM" and "Tuesday, March 22." Not the clock in the notification area. The reason why I want to keep the stock CM7 lockscreen is because of the gestures if you're wondering.
With the "fix" I was able to remove the time itself, but just the numbers, not the remaining text.

I thought CM mod 's lock was completely customizable under CM settings

Not that I can see, it's only stuff like music control and gestures.

Removing HTC lockscreen from 2.1 Build

I posted a question in FLipzs' 2.1 thread about how to remove the HTC lockscreen and Katmandu4responded with:

If you set a lockscreen wallpaper, it will place what ever you pick behind.

Same here. Without the "albums" being accessible I don't think we can change the lockscreen wallpaper.
VoX is yours clear as well?
I forget where it is at, but there is a googlebits.zip or something like that floating around, with an albums in it, that works. On my 2.1 I can adjust wallapapers/locksceen. On an interesting note...I guess with the "rotate" lockscreen..it stays clear..I just found that out..whoops. I guess when I am done with the other 2.1 projects I am working on, I will take a look at porting the "rotate" part from ASOP. Then again, maybe someone with a bit more code experience will know how to unclear the background.
yea if we can unclear the background that would work because the lockscreen is functional, so i guess no reason to port.
Has anyone been able to add a back ground to the clear 2.1 lockscreen?
So will this be available for our HTC Hero..?...I really liked the lockscreen and always wanted it...Atleast till we get a fully functional 2.x ROM..
when you try to select a lockscreen wallpaper by clicking Albums, do you get a com.htc.launcher FC?
thats what I got after messing around with it a little. anyone have googlebits with working albums?

I'm in the same boat as you are, it I get a fc when I press Albums, but it still doesn't change when if you hit the Wallpaper gallery button, so idk if it the albums thing would work.
Unlike you I kinda like the clear wallpaper, I just don't like the clock on the lockscreen, it covers my HTC clock

Yeah that's my problem
Same boat here. Maybe we can remove the info on the lockscreen?
any progress here for anyone else...? I've been trying a lot, but nothing seems to work so far.
Has anyone been able to remove the htc bar for incoming calls also?
clear background
I get a clear background as well.

HTC Flip Clock Weather Widget

Hi ok im not the brainest when it comes to my Hero. I have it rooted and im running Android 2.2 with Sense rom at the moment. Think its fantastic.
I love the Sense Weather flip clock widget, the main reason i like using sense, but is there any way to get a clear backgroung, or change the colour of the clock.
Thanks Steve
As far as I know you can't really modify Sense widgets and I doubt that will be looked in to anytime soon since most devs are trying to get a complete Sense Froyo. When that happens maybe they might look in to your question.

Its possible that I am completely off-base here, but AFAIK you can't re-sign sense .apk's correctly in a way that will work. So I don't believe you can make changes to sense widgets in this way.
Someone correct me if I am wrong.

Beautiful Widgets from the Market is the closest you'll get to a transparent Flip Clock. Once installed go into it's settings and look through the downloadable clock skins. There's loads that look like the Sense Flip Clock. It's not free, but it is pretty cool.
I use it when running ADW Launcher... and then I get bored and switch back to Sense... and then vise versa!
Error on startup with clock
I am using the the weather & toggle app on my rooted nook tablet. I have the weather and flip clock on my home screen and it works fine until I power down the device. After the power down where the clock should be it says" Problem loading widget"
I am a noob here but this string was about the clock so I hope Im posting in the right place.
Thanx!!
Lirasina themed the clock so it is possible. Actually, I can take a look into it, shouldn't be too hard. Which Rom do you want me to do it for?
sent with love from me to you
Animated weather widget&clock is quite similar to the HTC sense.
However, in the rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1276544
there is a link for the HTC sense style clocks. I don't know if they work in other roms.

I dont have the tablet but when my flip clock (on my phone) has problems a simple "remove" and replacing of the widget generally fixes it. Then again, I don't have a tablet so maybe it's the rom…or ???

Not really crazy, what do you want me to change?
Edit: Is there an old style Sense clock in ZeroHero or only the new Sense 3.5 one?
Didnt work. I have to delete the clock from my home page and put it back everytime I power down. Could someone look into this. There has to be some way or some clock similar that doesnt have this problem.
Thanx!!

How to change lock screen sliders?

In what way do you want to change the lock screen sliders? Sorry, your question is just kinda open in terms of interpretation. If you could suggest what you would like to do, or what you are looking for, and maybe myself or anyone else that reads this thread can provide you some more help!
Thanks
P.S. not sure if it is what you are looking for at all, but check out the application called widget-locker on the Market. This allows customization with image edits, and allows you to customize your entire lock screen as well.
Sorry about the open ended question, I meant just the sliders without using Widget Locker, so lets say I wanted to make the unlock a pacman and the silent/vibrate a ghost. Is it possible to change the icons without Widget Locker?

Use NinjaMorph to get into your framework-res.apk under system/framework. Then go to res/drawable-hdpi and it should be near the very bottom of the pics under zz_moto_jog_tab... or you could only change the centers of the sliders to pacman and a ghost, that would be ic_jog_dial_...

Rookie Problem? Lockscreen widgets

Hey guys, sorry I'm an ex IOS user with my fist Android. I've been trying to add dasclock on my GS4 but the white boxes to add widgets on the lockscreen dont show up. I went into settings and I cant find anything.

While on the lockscreen, put your finger on the clock and swipe down. This will expand the clock widget and then allow you to long press the clock and remove it. Once removed (or swiping to an open lockscreen panel) you will see the white plus sign graphic that will open the lockscreen widgit selection dialogue.
Let me know if this is confusing, I can try to explain it in a different way.
Awesome got it! Thanks bro!

REQUEST - Customizable Stock Lockscreen

Hello fellow G2-Users,
One thing that bothers me with this great phone is the lack to customize the stock lockscreen. For example display calendar and weather, changing the clock etc. I know there is WidgetLocker and other apps but i want to keep the great unlocking animation from the stock lockscreen and of course knockoff from lockscreen.
Who else wants this?
Who can make this possible?

I'm using a PIN code for security, so that changes things a bit. On that version of the lock screen, you can swipe from the left and add widgets. Stock lockscreen.

Thx for your suggestion!! iam aware of that and it is also avaible without PIN security. But i want to see my next appointment and weather on the main lockscreen and change the (ugly) stock clock.
Try "Android Weather" app. It has the features you mention, you can make the widget transparent if you want, and it can be added to the lockscreen.
