Two WM Native Lockscreens {2010-12-23} - Compact version added

**NinjaDuck** · #1 (**permalink**) 12-17-2010, 02:33 AM

This is a lockscreen I modified for myself and figured I would share.

No warranties express or implied.

Only works on 480 x 800 and 800 x 480
Runs under 6.5 and above only
You must have the native lockscreen enabled (no HTC or CHT)
Backup /Windows/LockScreen if you want to be able to go back to stock
If you are using Energy Dec 13th ROM 29005, you need to install THIS patch

First I have to give credit to the two lockscreens I used as a base - much of this is their work. Hopefully they do not mind me refactoring it.

Miancule - WM 6.5 Manila-like lockscreen
akira99 - NullPointer EvO LockScreen

What I did was combine the two and tweak up the styles, layout, and graphics a bit.

Industrial

Click Thanks if you like it.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Enabling WM Native Lockscreen

Every ROM is different and some give you tools to do this.

Code:

 
-- This turns on the lockscreen
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Shell\LockScreen]
"Enable"=dword:00000001
 
-- Emptying this value or deleting the entire key will turn
-- off any custome lockscreen you have
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Shell\LockScreen\OEM]
"CustomUIDLL"=""

EnergyROM Dec 13th 90005 Patch
There is a bug that I posted a fix for on the thread

Install the patch: Ninja Duck Patch 2900x Lockscreen 1.0.cab
Make sure you have the CHT lockscreen off.
Use the Lockscreen control panel app to switch to the WM lockscreen.

Wow!
This looks great!
Any special requirements for this?
6.5 only?

Nice Work!

Thanks. I do not know of any special requirements other than turning the lockscreen on.

Please let me know if it works for you.

I made some notes in the second thread that I will edit as the community helps me learn.

Kewl. I see you updated to have a pseudo landscape version. When I first saw your thread it said slim chance on LS mode. Looks like I'll have to give this a try.

Appreciate you taking the time to get a LS type mode.

bad news for 6.1 users: its no good just tried it. even performed the reg edits but still didnt budge.

Based on several requests for a lighter / transparent / compact version, I added a thin version to the first post.

Enjoy...
