Honeycomb Lockscreen for CM7 Nightlies

HONEYCOMB Lockscreen for Legend Nightlies

As many of you have probably noticed, XDA member bizdady has been making Honeycomb lockscreens for CM7 RCs and Nightlies for various devices.

Unfortunately, the Legend was not supported... Until now!

After following the instructions below, a honeycomb themed lockscreen will completely replace the "style options" for the CM7 lockscreen including "Sliding Tab", "Rotary", "Rotary revamped", and "Lense".

PRE-REQUISITES

• A rooted Legend
  
• Make sure you're running either CM7 Nightly #12 OR #13

INSTRUCTIONS

1. Make a backup!
   
2. Download the applicable attached zip and flash like a normal ROM.
   
3. Go here to thank/donate to bizdady.
   
4. Enjoy!

NOTES

• ONLY LISTED NIGHTLY BUILDS ARE SUPPORTED! Please check the pre-requisites to verify which nightly you'll need to be running.
• These instructions are for S-ON users. S-OFF users can go to the original post here and use metamorph.
  
• Future nightlies will be supported - but NOT every single one!
  
• The attached zip is purely the work of bizdady.
  
• I will not answer questions about how to reverse/change the modification so please run a backup or see the second comment below.

UPDATES

March 7, 2011 - Lockscreen for Nightly # 13 available.

To go back to normal you can always reflash your current nightly rom. That will overwrite the modded framework and put everything back to stock.

^ er..flashing a copy or backup of the original cm7 b12 framework-res.apk & Clockopia.ttf will do the job instead of flashing the rom again. works for me, at least

i'm on 140lcd w/ the settings below. swiping from right to left opens either my messaging app or the vibrate option.

however, shouldn't i be getting buttons on the right portion like the one on the left below?

The icons are setup for rotary style so only an unlock icon in middle shows. If you set it to sliders will have invincible icons for sound/text.

Sent from my Evo 4G CM7 nightly machine!

^ cool, man! thought i was missing something. hope you could do another version w/ buttons/icons for both txt and sound. i'm more inclined to use the sliders as the rotary thingies don't look good on my modded screen. anyway, thanks again...

Two questions:

1) Do you mean the phone won't start at all, or you just have to press the power button yourself?

2) Which nightly are you on?

If you experience problems, I recommend returning to your backup.

Strange behaviour on new nightlies

I am having an issue with the Honeycomb lockscreen on the latest CM7 nightlies.
When I flash the lockscreen, the device and all functions work properly but the menus and dialog screens are messed up with incorrect (and often funny) text.
The affected ones I have noticed are:
- Damaged SD Card (although if you open File Manager the SD card works just fine)

- USB connection dialog from status bar (gives an error message but it actually works if you click on it)

- Long-press power button menu (Silent Mode, Airplane Mode, Profile, Reboot, Power Off)- the text goes all funny and when you click one of the menu items you get an even funnier dialog box but in the end it works the way it should (if you remember where to click)

The above all happens after I flash the lockscreen to the newer CM7 nightlies (tries with 25, 26, 27, 28) and when I re-flash the ROM (i.e. override the lockscreen) everything goes back to normal (fixed)

As it says in the OP, this lockscreen only works on Nightly 12 & 13. You'll also notice that the zips are clearly labeled 12 & 13.

I'll ask the original developer for 28, but I didn't want to keep bothering him with requests for every single nightly.

 

[Pharaohnough]

I am aware of that but I kept trying the lockscreen with newer builds (after 12 and 13 and into the early 20s for experimentation sake) and it was working fine with no issue at all until build #25 and that's why I felt the need to report it now

 

[jaStrom]

Fair enough, but I can't guarantee it'll work beyond 12 and 13 right now. I also don't have the expertise to fix myself since I'm not the original developer. Hopefully we'll have one for 28 from the dev at some point.

What did I do wrong?
thanks

 

[robertsaedal]

looks fantasic

 

[wiadrovit]

Will that work on a stable release as well?

 

[maxq1]

^ i don't think so

OP, can you provide just the png's for the messaging & vibrate icons that would match the ones provided on this mod? it would surely be awesome! i'm no good with graphics stuff

 

[seattleboy1st]

what a terrific job thank you
