Re: [Announce] QtLockscreen: highly configurable lockscreen replacement
 
Hi all,

I got a problem since i installed QTLockscreen and QTLockscreenConfig.

When I receive a call, an image of mountain and lake appears in place of the presentation of the call.

This image is not part of the themes installable via QTLockscreenConfig and i can not found it in the different configuration folders of QTLockscreen and QTLockscreenConfig.

Would you know what brings up this image and where it can be located in the phone memory?

Thanks,

PS : excuse my English, i'm french.

Re: [Announce] QtLockscreen: highly configurable lockscreen replacement
 
Sakya, remember when I asked for a update once a minute(to preserve battery) while on background, so I don't need to wait 5 to 7 secs every time I need to know the minute I'm in?

Is it possible?

Please, don't take it as personal or that I'm in any way, shape or form of any importance, but I myself will have to uninstall it because everybody else over here, when they need to see the time on their phones, all they need to do is to touch a button and there it is, while I have to either do it while on my pocket and then take it to at least lower the time I have to keep staring at it until it decides to update (while on nice -20), or stare for 5~7 secs at it until it updates.

Again, the 2 sec of the power button wouldn't be an issue if it updated while on background.

Also, I always get ashamed when it does this while someone is looking (I guess this could be solved with double buffer):

(the same happens portrait->landscape).

Sorry for anything.

Done in version 0.1.22:

Changelog:
* Added BackgroundUpdateIntervalSeconds setting to DateTime widget. If set the widget is updated every x seconds also when the lockscreen isn't visible,
so that the time you see when you click the power button isn't too "old". ;)

As said in the changelog add
Code:

BackgroundUpdateIntervalSeconds=60
to your DateTime widget to let it update in background.

When does this happen (double buffering is enabled by default in QGraphicsView)?

This happens "regularly" as in, more often than not it just works, and sometimes it gets stuck this way for seconds (tilled or with a black border - those are actual shots, not made up - of course I had to try several times until I was able to shot a perfect 'shot' of the thing -hence, the delay between each-).
So, if double buffer is already enabled, may I ask if you use only the accelerometer or you use the rotation provided by the phone? If you use the second (as in, your program rotates instead of just changing the picture upon state-changing on the accelerometer), may I ask to put it on the settings file another setting like (in the picture used or whatever):
UseBuiltInRotation=1/0
Where 0 would not let the program rotate and just change the picture upon accelerometer state-change? I believe this would at least prevent the black border one (I'm taking that from the beginnings of the first trials of rotation when the background image had to be made 800x800 you know?);

If you already do that, I'm out of luck.
Anyhow, thank you very very much!

Re: [Announce] QtLockscreen: highly configurable lockscreen replacement
 
Can you add transition effect when unlock the screen? It doesn't look right when the desktop just "jumps in" like that. And have you worked on replacing the default lockscreen? Just these 2 fix and the lockscreen will be perfect.

Re: [Announce] QtLockscreen: highly configurable lockscreen replacement
 
Thank you for the great app and for the new TextCommand feature. But I have problem with it. I wrote simple script that shows me the current profile name and the vibration status with the TextCommand widget
Code:

#!/bin/sh

myprofilename=$(cat /home/user/.profiled/current)
myprofilevibr=$(dbus-send --type=method_call --print-reply --dest=com.nokia.profiled /com/nokia/profiled com.nokia.profiled.get_values string:"$myprofilename" | awk -F'"' 'NR==75 {print $2}')

if [ "$myprofilename" = 'general' ]; then
    myprofile=''
elif [ "$myprofilename" = 'silent' ]; then
    myprofile='Mute'
else
    myprofile=$myprofilename
fi

if [ "$myprofilevibr" = 'On' ]; then
    myprofile=$myprofile' {}'
fi

echo $myprofile

It works, it shows me the correct info. But often something happens and the process with the script goes in interruptible state (status D in ps) and the lockscreen won't update the info after profile change until qtlockscreen reload, and the dead process can be removed only with device restart.
I suppose that sometimes the execution of the script can't finish before some processes in qtlockscreen and the script freezes.
I tried to make the script lighter, so I removed the part with the vibration check (may be dbus-send is slow) but sometimes it freezes again. Script that only prints the text from little file is enough light, so it is a problem. Usually it takes me from 1 to 10 profile changes before freeze. Sometimes more but rarely.
Please, look at that, because TextCommand is very useful feature if it works correct. Thank you!

P.S.: I forgot to say that I'm using ProfilesX Extended Profiles Manager to manage profiles so I have more than two profiles. But I don't think it has some connection with that because the problem occurs with changing between General and Silent only too.

Is it possible to open notifications on your lock screen through a slide or press. That you immediately go to your text message. just like the N9!

sakya 2011-11-08 11:34

Re: [Announce] QtLockscreen: highly configurable lockscreen replacement
 
@neter: I'll look at this problem, thanks.
@DUDEXYZ: all can be done with time and work...I don't have a lot of spare time at the moment. ;)

Re: [Announce] QtLockscreen: highly configurable lockscreen replacement
 
I last tweeked my qtlockscreen setup in the summer when qtlockscreen was still new. Today I finally got back to it, deciding to catch up on all the new features, and got my qtlockscreen.ini file updated with all the new stuff. Just want to say, it's really awesome that signal quality, G2/G3 radio mode, and internet connection 'widgets' have now been added. (Really awesome that the other stuff got added too, I'm just more excited about those specifically.)

Re: [Announce] QtLockscreen: highly configurable lockscreen replacement
 
Finally QtLockscreen is in Extras.

Thanks to the developer (sakya) and all the people who vote to the promotion and testing.

Greetings.

PD: Now waiting for QtLockscreenConfig to reach Extras (hopefully will be soon, just need 1 vote if is cosiderable stable).

Re: [Announce] QtLockscreen: highly configurable lockscreen replacement
 
How can i hide/erase the black lines in up and donw?

I mean where clock, date, battery and unlock are in this image


I changes other things but that ones, just can`t see where to hide/erase it (in the .ini file).

Greetings.

Edit: Nevermind, i found it.

Change [Rect_Bottom] and [Rect_Top] sizes to 0,0 for P and L.

I know i can change it by the colors too but don't know wich one is white so it was easily to me that way.

FYI
White = ;255;255;255;255

Thanks to sakya for this app.
In the process of making a lockscreen, will share when I am happy with it.

Has any one noticed if you press the power button (to lock) three times instead of two the original lock screen appears?
And if you press the power button four times the device locks then unlocks.
Is it just my device?

I understand that the QT image is over the original lock screen but I assume you should never see the original lock screen.

Also how would you make the operator say the same as the "custom operator name widget"?

Thanks

I get the three dots in the metadata when using mass storage mode.
Check your config file for the date?

It's "normal". Qt is not fast to draw the gui, so if you press the power button very fast the lockscreen has not yet been rendered.

Sakya, thanks for explaining.
Is there anyway to hide the original lockscreen at all?

Any ideas on the Operator Name?

The only way would be to rewrite the systemui plugin that displays the original lockscreen.

Do you mean you want to display a fixed text when online? It can be done modigying the code.

Sort of.
I have a phone with an Orange SIM but I use "Custom Operator Name Widget" to display different things like Connected, Connecting and Offline.
QtLockscreen always displays Orange as the Operator.

Change your region settings. From settings menu-languages and regions.

sakya 2012-02-19 12:37

Re: [Announce] QtLockscreen: highly configurable lockscreen replacement
 
Or if you don't want to change your region settings edit the ini file of the theme you're using and add:
Code:

Locale="en_US"

Metric Time for QTLockscreen

I have a small patch to allow Metric Time display in TimeWidget. I attach it here but if anyone know where I should send it to be included in next release ?

Re: [Announce] QtLockscreen: highly configurable lockscreen replacement
 
Hi there, I'm having a strange problem.
After every reboot my lockscreen is the default one again.
I always need to reapply my custom lockscreen via Qtlockscreen config after reboot.

Does anybody has an idea what could causing this? And where is the information stored for loading qtlockscreen at boot.

Thanks in advance,

Regards,

J4ZZ

I would suggest taking it to Sakya himself. He might be willing to update the application.
