No one can really make a flashable zip because you would have to have one for every phone and ROM available for each of those phones..

Did anyone got it working with dpi other than default? For me it works only with default DPI(240) but not with custom DPI like 200.

I tried this last night, changing the margin to 52 (didn't move), and then to 62 (notice some movement). Was going to try 72 but then it was already midnight. Had to get some rest.

Is that on custom dpi or default dpi? It works on default dpi which is 240 for S2 but in custom dpi like 200 i don't see any visual changes.

isn't changing the layout a way better method?

frameworks / base / core / res / res /layout / keyguard_screen_tab_unlock.xml

(for the decompile guys / res /layout / keyguard_screen_tab_unlock.xml)
i did not test this btw but i think this is much cleaner then changing the margin

Code:

<GridLayout
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:orientation="vertical"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"

    android:gravity="center_horizontal">

    <com.android.internal.widget.DigitalClock android:id="@+id/time"

        android:layout_marginBottom="12dip"
-        android:layout_marginRight="@dimen/keyguard_lockscreen_status_line_font_right_margin"
-        android:layout_gravity="right">
+        android:layout_gravity="center">

        <!-- Because we can't have multi-tone fonts, we render two TextViews, one on
        top of the other. Hence the redundant layout... -->
        <TextView android:id="@+id/timeDisplayBackground"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:singleLine="true"
            android:ellipsize="none"
            android:textSize="@dimen/keyguard_lockscreen_clock_font_size"

The lines with the + symbols are changes and the - symbols you remove.

Much appreciate the work peeps! I'll make sure I send credits this way when I post the mod in my forum section!

Try owain94's method from 2 Page back. It will work even on custom dpi.

I've written a guide on how to fix that issue for S2 but it may work with other devices too. Link

This will work on hdpi devices....but not on xhdpi. When U try your method on xhdpi the unlock ring is off centered on standard dpi (320) because on lowered dpi on a xhdpi device, rom is trying to use hdpi drawable...but there are none of these file. So U have to grabb these files from a hdpi rom and place these in framework from your xhdpi rom.

Further U have to edit also dimens.xml and then it is working on all dpi on a xhdpi device.

i couldnt get it to work.. steps m following are....

1. decompile framework-res.apk
2. Make changes
3. Save the changes
4. Recompile apk
5. move resources.arsc to original apk from newly compiled apk.
6. ADB push apk to system.
7. Set the correct permissions (644, rw-r-r) from root explorer.
8. Reboot

After rebooting m stuck on the boot animation, nothing happens after that. I have to restore my backup through CWM.

M i doing anything wrong? Any help will b really appreciated.
