Yeah, thanks for that. I'd be interested though more in the clock, e.g. adding seconds, removing the systems own one, removing slider, adding the currently playing track and displaying "no track playing" if no track is playing.

That's a start though.

This is all done with one ImageMagick command followed by a copy of the generated image to the right theme folder. Alarmed app could then be used to execute a script with those commands daily at midnight.

So anyone have any ideas on how to get rid of the default time and date? If it is possible I will probably change this to portrait instead.
if that CAN be done, i got a perfect idea...!

Hey, guys!
That's some sick work you have done=)
Although that's something that could be expected from Open Source and linux=) So, tnx everybody.
Anyway, I did try to do it on my locale ru_RU and the first time it showed "some weird symbol - word "CODE"(in russian)" After few more time it showed " secu_swipe_to_unlock" phrase. I'll try to do it on US locale, just to make sure i do everything right, but still what could possible go wrong, except my noobness=)
I did change the "Swipe to unlock" to just "", but then the whole comment, both lines with msgid and the other one (can't remind of it right now) just dissappeared.
Can somebody help me?

(SOLVED)

Forgot to put a space between " " signs, otherwise everything meses up.

This is another that I created.



I actually have this as the unlock screen at the moment. There is a few problems though. Sometimes one or two of the default items will pop up on there for some reason. Not exactly sure why.

Did you remember to also remove LockSliderThumbPortrait.png from the theme's image folder?

Otherwise if you press the power button when the phone is held in portrait mode, this image will be shown.

Don't want to get anyones hopes up but I think I am close to getting a little weather image and current conditions text etc to show on the unlock screen. Unfortunately it involves installing some perl libs .... oh and you have to get the weather from CNN so US only right now.

Thanks to all who have contributed to this thread.

Edit: Success - right now I am just trying to streamline the process and see if perhaps I can come up with a package. Short of that I will post instructions here and a screenshot if I can figure out how to take one of the locking screen.

As promised a picture. Not a shot of the actual screen from the phone, but you get the idea. Current is on the left. Tomorrow is on the right.

Nice idea Bratag.
Be good if we could use our own images for the weather icons.
Suppose that would just be a case of replacing what's in the image folder.

Not exactly. Keep in mind this is getting its information from the CNN weather page. Part of what it pulls is the image itself. Now the image is just a sequence of numbers that obviously mean something to the writers of the page - but to me they mean nothing. So unless I know that say 033.gif is the image for sunny, I can't go an match that to a local set of icons and give you the functionality you require.

If someone knows of a good website for weather other than CNN the script could most likely be adapted. I chose cnn because it has minimal extra crap on it. Unlike say weather.com or accuweather. And makes parsing easier.

Also keep in mind this is a script. I have tried to keep it simple. I guess I could go off and pull the data from the gov forecast and parse that and work out what images I should show etc. But at the time of writing this I was just doing a POC.
