LockInfo is 3.0 Ready.

[Tronic]

*Update 5/8/10*
With the release of iOS 4, this thread has now been re-titled to reflect new responses regarding both OS's.


Just a heads up for those of you who use the free alternative to Intelliscreen, LockInfo has been updated to work with 3.0. However some people are experiencing springboard crashes upon updating. To get the update, add http://david.ashman.com/beta/ to your Cydia sources and install "Lockscreen Info". If your SB crashes and you would like to help the author in trouble shooting the problem, please refer to page 49 of the following official LockInfo thead at MacThemes.

http://macthemes2.net/forum/viewtopic.php?id=16794311&p=49

Here is also a thread detailing just the theme and how to configure your preferences for Winterboard.

Updated 7-10-09
Sorry for not keeping up with this thread, I posted it in passing, never thinking it would get so many responses.

Lockinfo 1.0.61 should be working now for everyone. The only problem I know of is that under the mail settings it displays two Gmail accounts if you have one. To get it to show up in Cydia, add http://david.ashman.com/beta/ to your sources. Additionally, add http://david.ashman.com/apt/ if you would like to hide the default lock screen clock and grey bar. Most lockinfo themes display info where the clock is normally so you should hide it. The image below is from the author, not me, so I cannot answer questions about why its a certain size to time/date. I just copied it from his thread over at Macthemes.com.

I have tested most of the Lockinfo themes and I prefer the Gruppled theme, which is displayed in the image below. The config.js file has a plethora of comments which allows for easy modification even for those of us that have no idea what a config.js file is. Following, is a link to Macthemes that describes the theme and how to customize it. http://macthemes2.net/forum/viewtopic.php?id=16794932&p=1

To install the theme, you must SSH into your phone and add/configure the files that you will download from the thread. Again, the config.js file has detailed comments telling you how to configure this theme to display exactly what you want.

[marbo]

I cant get that workin. All the time springboard crashes.

[The General]

Uhh, how is the screenshot 320x564?

[superxero3]

Uhh, how is the screenshot 320x564?

noticed the same thing....

also, i like 9:42

[dhlizard]

Yep, still needs more work. Crashes springboard every time.

[Cupra]

made me late for work lol i spent ages fiddling and removing things to try getting this to work but no joy... hence why its still BETA!

hope its sorted soon

[dhlizard]

Actually, the older version was working OK for me on 3G with 3.0.

Update wiped out option to get older version.

Guess I will wait for author to work out bugs !

[dhlizard]

LockScreen Info has been updated to 10.5.8 and it no longer crashes !

Have it running with no problems !

[thefunkymunky]

How do I configure LockInfo? I've have it installed but what now?

[poorboy8u]

yeah I tried to drop it into the theme folder like the site said after setting it up and nothing happend. even rebooted twice.

[dhlizard]

Must be installed thru Cydia.

To get the update, add http://david.ashman.com/beta/ to your Cydia sources and install "Lockscreen Info".

Right in original post.

Then you reboot and it will appear in Settings.

[poorboy8u]

Yeah still didn't work. Maybe later.

[dhlizard]

Yeah still didn't work. Maybe later.

Are you saying you added the david.ashman source, installed LockScreen Info and it still doesn't work ??

You know, to get the info to appear on your lockscreen, you need Animated Lock Info Theme and LockInfo Matte UI theme also.

[Dsr1205]

how do you get the weather to appear?

Everything you need will install (including Winterboard, etc.). Just run LockInfo.

[thestaton]

If you can spring for it, intelliscreen is working great in 3.0 right now.

Same. It's $9.99. I've had it for 10 days now and had no crashing or any other issues.

Are you sure ? I had to SSH the other 2 mods to my phone, then go into Winterboard to activate.

Its only a beta, no wonder it isnt working right. Think ill wait for the done version, but thanks for the link to his stuff.

[dhlizard]

Don't think it's beta

New update again in Cydia. 10.6.0

Working fine for me since 10.5.8 version

[jcde7ago]

Working fine for me.

If you can't get LockScreen Info + a LockScreen Info theme to work, you're most likely doing something wrong. The relevant links have already been posted here so I won't go into how to get everything set-up correctly...but it all works.

BTW, Intelliscreen might work great, but believe me when I say that it uses a tremendous amount of memory as well as draining your battery faster. If you use LockScreen Info + a relevant theme, you can configure pretty much everything, including how often to poll for things like email, rss feeds and whatnot. The memory footprint is also negligible. Intelliscreen caused me troubles in the past, and since I stopped using it, i've never had any reason to go back.

Why pay for something when there are other free options out there that don't consume memory + battery life + have more customizable features? Not to mention, because LSI + themes are all HTML/JS based, new features can be added in the future extremely easily.

Hey Jcde7ago,

Which theme is this you are using with LockScreen Info ? Can you point me to it ?

The theme I am using does not have the double bar at top (2nd bar with time & date just below status bar) and since I am not they much of a tech guy, I have had not luck with importing the double bar into my theme.

Mine only shows an email notification. No weather, no calender

The links on page 1, do you have to SSH this info into your phone after you do your settings on that site?

[dhlizard]

Mine only shows an email notification. No weather, no calender

You need to install a LockInfo theme (via SSH) along with installing LockScreen Info (thru Cydia)

Then you go into the configure.js doc (which is essentially a settings menu in text form) and decide what and how to display what you want.

In my example, I ssh'ed Gruppled LockInfo.theme into my themes directory.
Thru Cydia, I installed: Lockscreen Info, Lockscreen Clock Hide, 20 second Lockscreen, and Smaller Wide Sliders.

Yeah I finally got mine to work but it's only one event from the calender. nothing else. Could using notifier at the same time screw that up?

If you are using a theme with LockScreen Info, DO NOT put a check mark on "LockInfo" in Winterboard.

Just check mark the theme. But you have to configure what shows using configure.js

Have no idea about Status Notifier (is that what you are referring to?)

Then just buy Intelliscreen for $10.

Only reason I used the "free" ones is I like the challenge, plus you learn alot.
When I started with this JB stuff, I knew nothing. First one step, then the other and pretty soon you can go into a file and fix it to do most anything you want.

Remember, this stuff is all over Google. You can read about how to do all of this, just take it a step at a time.

A quote from Jay Freeman (aka Saurik, creator of Cydia and pretty much the jailbreak Jesus if the Dev Team are the Gods):

Originally Posted by saurik View Post
IntelliScreen is a buggy monstrosity of doom. I get reports every single day about IntelliScreen issues. It simply crashes /a lot/, and sometimes it puts you into a state where you have to restore. Personally, I find this unacceptable.

To handle situations of buggy extensions, I designed Mobile Safe Mode. If SpringBoard crashes (and it has to crash: seriously crash) then you will get put into Safe Mode with all extensions disabled. This is a really awesome feature and really saves the day when an extension goes nuts.

Unfortunately, IntelliScreen seems to have been relying on the fact that their (incredibly buggy) product would crash and SpringBoard would /usually/ restart, and no one would really notice. In response to all this, they want me to modify Mobile Safe Mode to give their program a chance to sort of work again.

Personally, I don't really believe in that model: they should just fix their software. It is really important that you be able to get into Cydia to be able to uninstall their extension if it doesn't work, and all of their models of "what about if it crashes twice in a row" don't solve the problem of extensions that only crash when, for example, you try to do something important.

Besides, there are all kinds of extensions that are out there: WinterBoard, Dock2, QuickGold, from a bunch of developers, and IntelliScreen is the only one that has common, persistent issues. I finally got mad at them yesterday and removed them from the Featured page as they are simply refusing to play along with these safety nets.

Today I'm going to push an update to Mobile Substrate that clarifies the wording in that dialog box to make certain users understand that this is an issue /with the extensions/ (and probably say "likely IntelliScreen") and has absolutely nothing to do with a failure in Mobile Substrate.

You guys can keep recommending Intelliscreen if you want, but saurik's stance (and a lot of other people's, for that matter) on Intelliscreen still hasn't changed. LockScreen Info + a theme is far, far less resource intensive than Intelliscreen. It also won't kill your battery like Intelliscreen.

When the creator of MobileSubtrate, from which many, many apps run off of, including Intelliscreen, speaks, people should really listen. Head to ModMyI forums and check out the Intelliscreen forum..half the threads are people having issues with it.

You have to load a theme to go with Lockscreen Info (see earlier posts). The configure.js file is part of the theme.

I just havent done the SSH thing and not sure what to do. Im not going to buy an App that sucks so intellescreen is out. I dont really NEED Lockinfo, it just looks good. But i dont need the hassle.

The only thing im willing to maybe use SSH for is i need to do something to my mobileinstallation in the phone(thats what ive been reading is the problem) because i cant backup my stuff on iTunes now. There is a patch in Cydia for 3.0 called installd patch but it didnt do anything to fix my backup problem. Mayube 3.1 will fix it. I hope so. Other than the backup problem, everything on 3.0 is working great for me.

Your signature doesn't say if you use Mac or PC.

I use Cyberduck (for Mac) and it makes SSH really easy. The hardest part of it is figuring out where the iPhone "puts" different things like themes, wallpapers, movies, photos, SMS tones (but you learn it pretty quick).

There are some good tutorials out there. The most important thing is to not just delete anything the iPhone needs. Any if I replace or alter any of the original Apple firmware or items, I always keep a copy of the original file.

To do themes, just open the iPhone files, navigate to private/var/stash/themes and just drop the new theme in. Once it finishes copying, you can get the configure.js back out to your desktop (keep a copy of the original) and start playing around with TextEdit (on Mac) to configure the display the way you want it.

I use a PC and i have instructions on how to SSH into the phone and i have WinSCP downloaded. Havent found any video on how to add stuff for lockinfo though.

SSH is just a matter of drag & Drop. The only thing that has to be SSh'ed is the theme. Then pull out the Configure.js and start making sure the various features are set to true & false to determine what features you want. Also just replace the original zip code with your zip code to set weather location.

So i just drop the animated folder i got from that website (or grumpler folderthat i just downloaded) it took us too(the link in the thread) and drop that into the themes folder on my phone? There is also a settings folder that i have on my desktop from that site (which i can assume is the the same configure.js)?

Should be Gruppled LockInfo Theme.

I think for PC, it looks like a folder. Drop the whole folder into private/var/stash/themes+some characters after themes (I think that's the correct path).

Once the theme is copied, open Gruppled LockInfo Theme/Bundles/com.ashman.lockinfo and inside there is the configure.js file. Drop a copy on your desktop. Save a copy of the original in case you mess it up. Find a text edit for PC (not sure what they use, maybe notepad ??) and open it up. To change most things you just enter or change "true" or "false"

There is a spot to enter a zip code in weather section. Then save it, with changes, and drop back into iPhone and override or replace original. Go to Winterboard, check mark the Gruppled LockInfo (but not LockInfo line) Restart phone, should load.

i think i got it working, but for some reason after a re-spring, only the clock and weather shows up. i have to unlock and re-lock to get everything to show up.

[flounder21]

Same here....just clock....actually 2 clocks...and 7 day forcast? What am I missing?
Good timing on posting that js file...thanks by the way


Excellent!! I got it!! Thanks for your help....looks great!

[dapitts08]

I am pretty new to this theme thing....

I installed lockinfo matte and am using the nano matte theme...

But I can't figure out how to get a full calendar on the lockscreen...

I only see options for listing calendar events...

Was there a something I missed?

Also....where can I get the slider that is a small lock icon? I have found some tap sliders but they are all still big buttons?

enable the clock then disable the apple clock with clock hide then click on the time to show the calendar

[Mystikal]

I installed and enabled everything in winterboard and my lockscreen is just black. Meh.

[Zonyc]

This app rules! Its much less of a memory hog than another *similar* product, but this one is free! I couldnt figure out how to use the stock clock instead of the lockscreen one and still have a monthly calendar. Anyone have any suggestions? Here's what I have so far:

[EmptyWallet]

I tried doing this last night by reading this thread and got hopelessly lost.

I could only get it to bring up weather and mail, and on the weather it would not read the zip codes I put in.

I SSH'd the gruppled theme or whatever it is to the theme folder, and then loaded lockinfo via Cydia.

I think I MUST be doing something wrong when messing with the config file.

Sigh.

[TheHeadFL]

Sorry for the repost, but this is probably a more appropriate thread for it anyway:

"So I installed LockInfo with the Gruppled theme...

Its great, except I tried getting back the stock "Slide to Unlock".

I deleted the "com.apple.telephonyUI" folder in the theme, and that seems to have worked, but the words "Slide to Unlock" are missing. Is there any way to get that back?

(Also "Slide to Answer", "Slide to Cancel", etc.)"

Can I use LockInfo and/or it's themes without Winterboard?
Can I manually replace the files or is WB required?

Nope.

Once you go to uninstall Winterboard you'll see that all programs designed to run with it are removed right along with it.

Can you use LockInfo WITHOUT a Lockscreen theme?

What if I want to use it with Glasklart?

I'm an idiot. That's why you don't understand.


Alright, I've FINALLY gotten the weather to show up.....but I can't get anything else to show up. Do you have to enable this stuff in that config file? I can read it and I got the weather working, but I mean geez.....what about the calender and everything else?

[EmptyWallet]

Ok...I'm KIND figuring out that I need to delete the "//" in front of sections I want to enable.

I've done this up top enabling the clock.

I can't figure out how to get the calendar on there.

Do I HAVE to put something down as an event to have the calendar to show up?

Also, the mail will not show up unless I have new mail. However, I see on there that some of you have like no mails showing up, just a blank counter.

I'd like to have that. I can't figure out how to get missed calls or sms on there either.

Do I HAVE to have an sms that is missed to have this?

[EmptyWallet]

Working fine for me.

Question, how did you get it to go so far down the screen? It seems mine won't go very far down since it gets cut off by the lock section. I have the little lock icon on mine like you do, however, if I keep expanding things, it gets chopped off really far from the bottom like the slider is still there.

Help?

Is there a chance you can upload for us your Custom.plist file and the relevant plug-ins you installed? Judging from your screenshot, it's pretty much exactly how I want my lockscreen to look.

I'd rather work off a near ideal .plist than start from scratch and have to painstakingly go through a trial & error process.

All this talk about configure.js.... could somebody please give the full location to this file on our phones?

I can only get the Weather, Twitter, Name Days, and Clock to work. The only time when it displays new SMS is when i get one while the phone is locked, then it disappears again. No Mail, Calendar, etc...

This thing is WEIRD.

In the second section, last line, set Hide empty sections to false and see what that does.

install quick dismiss from cydia.. hitting the home button on the lock screen will clear the message (it will actually clear any pop up notifications)

[Maynerd]

one thing that I do not like about Lock Screen Info is that you can't dive into any of the things on the screen like you can intelliscreen.

Or at least that's what my experience is/was. I didn't do any tweaking though I just downloaded the app and tried running it.

Can you make it so you can dive into details?

[EatMyApple]

I tried getting the weather, email, ect. on LockInfo and became royally confused. I read all the pages and checked out the links - but it still is really that clear.

Could someone make a quick How-To Step by Step of how to get everything in the LockInfo screen.

Also, how do you get the standard Apple SMS/phone call notification to disappear so only the LockInfo screen is visible.

Thank you in advance and I'm sure this will help out MANY people.

[fishmd]

Question, how did you get it to go so far down the screen? It seems mine won't go very far down since it gets cut off by the lock section. I have the little lock icon on mine like you do, however, if I keep expanding things, it gets chopped off really far from the bottom like the slider is still there.

Help?

I to am wondering the same thing. Mine gets cut off as well even though I just have the little unlock key. I would love to be able to have it go all the way down. He must have somehow adjusted the size of the scroll bar. But I have no idea how to do this.

Help?:confused:

Edit: Answered my own question. Under the Settings application there is the tab for "LockInfo". Click on that and there is a slider for "Extend to Bottom". Turn that from "off" to "on" and re-spring the device. Wala, it extends down to the bottom of the screen regardless of the slide to unlock bar.

Thru Cydia, I installed: Lockscreen Info, Lockscreen Clock Hide, 20 second Lockscreen, and Smaller Wide Sliders.

MacThemes (http://macthemes2.net/forum/viewtopic.php?id=16794932)

Gruppler Website (http://gruppler.freeshell.org/uploads/users/gruppler/icons.php)

I have everything working just fine but I can't seem to find Lockscreen Clock Hide? Is this in Cydia?

I would love to remove the default clock on the lock screen. I need more room.

[Mystikal]

Can someone link me to that config page which gives out the .js file? I cant freaking find it anymore...

[hard-case]

Sorry for the repost, but this is probably a more appropriate thread for it anyway:

"So I installed LockInfo with the Gruppled theme...

Its great, except I tried getting back the stock "Slide to Unlock".

I deleted the "com.apple.telephonyUI" folder in the theme, and that seems to have worked, but the words "Slide to Unlock" are missing. Is there any way to get that back?

(Also "Slide to Answer", "Slide to Cancel", etc.)"

What you are missing is the modifications made in the theme to the Springboard.springs file. That is going to be located under Bundles/com.apple.springboard directory, IIRC under en.lproj (or whichever corresponds to your language settings). Remove that from the theme, and "Slide to unlock" should return.

You need to be using the proper theme (I believe in this specific instance it is the Gruppled Lock Info theme) for LockUI. In the directory of the theme, you want to look under Bundles/com.ashman.LockInfo. In there is a file called Config.js, which has the config settings for all the different widgets for LockInfo.

I have everything working just fine but I can't seem to find Lockscreen Clock Hide? Is this in Cydia?

I would love to remove the default clock on the lock screen. I need more room.

In Cydia, add the following source: http://david.ashman.com/apt
Inside that source is "Lockscreen Clock Hide". You install it, and then there is an option within the iphone settings window for Clock Hide, where you can hide the big clock on the lock screen and the small one on the lock screen top bar.

[fishmd]

Alright guys. Here is an example of what I did to my config.js file to make it look like the examples that you see above.

The path for the file is as follows:
/Library/Themes/Grupple LockInfo.theme/Bundles/com.ashman.LockInfo/config.js

You must do the following to edit this file.
1. SSH the above file from your iphone to your desktop. (I use Cyberduck with Mac).
2. Then you will open the config.js file and edit it with a text editor.
3. Once done editing, upload it to the same location and have it replace the old config.js file.
4. Done.
5. Also, to make the stock lockscreen clock disapear so the one with this theme shows, download "Lockscreen Clock Hide" from the david.ashman.com source.

Bellow is a copy of the config.js file with the changes I made and comments in red.

For all of you grumbling about config.js, I already posted a copy of my file in this thread. It is set up just as my screenshot shows and very closely to the example in the post above this post.

The link is in this post of this thread.... config.js post (http://forums.macrumors.com/showpost.php?p=8010977&postcount=47)

My advice to some of you is "If you are looking for help, be sure and read the whole thread". After all, it's only 3 1/2 pages long. Everything from Cydia repos, file locations, examples, folder locations and how to configure the js are all in these few posts.

Good luck.

Thank you very much for replying. I managed to find this earlier today and I changed the strings back to what they were 'supposed' to be, but I didn't realize you could simply delete that folder. That makes it a lot easier!

I hope this helps out guys.:)[/QUOTE]

Dang, stole half my idea! ;)

I need to redo my iphone tonight (going to try purplera1n as with redsn0w my battery percentage meter is REALLY wonky, and cydia is a tad crashy), so I was going to write up a tutorial with images of how to go from a just jailbroken iphone to getting LockInfo working properly, since a lot of people seem to be having issue (not just here) and the threads out there on MacThemes with the info are just too frigging huge to work with.

Also, just to note to people here, in this section here:
// (remove the "//" if you want it to show up) "Clock",
"Weather",
"Mail",
"Calendar",
"Calls",
"Voicemail",
"SMS",
];

The order in which the items appear in that list are the order they will appear on the lock screen. I changed mine around a bit (still a work in progress):
http://i298.photobucket.com/albums/mm244/hard-case/IMG_0012.png

Also, if you want to dig more into the look and feel of the display, in the Theme under the com.ashman.lockinfo/css directory are cascading style sheets you can edit, if you want to do things like change up colors, fonts, text locations, etc.

My next plan is to rework the fonts (maybe a bit smaller), tweak the rest of the icons, and tweak the way info is presented (like removing the second line in the calendar entry containing the end time and begins in info)...

[Lintrix]

In the second section, last line, set Hide empty sections to false and see what that does.

Thank you for the reply... i understand that this is all done in config.js.. but where is this file located?

You need to be using the proper theme (I believe in this specific instance it is the Gruppled Lock Info theme) for LockUI. In the directory of the theme, you want to look under Bundles/com.ashman.LockInfo. In there is a file called Config.js, which has the config settings for all the different widgets for LockInfo.

Ahh yes this all make sense why i can't seem to find a config.js anywhere!

In Cydia, add the following source: http://david.ashman.com/apt
Inside that source is "Lockscreen Clock Hide". You install it, and then there is an option within the iphone settings window for Clock Hide, where you can hide the big clock on the lock screen and the small one on the lock screen top bar.

Adding that Source worked. Thanks a bunch. For some reason i had a different source installed also. Two total Anyway it works now.

I was having the same problem and just waited a little while and tried it again. It worked finally.

Now onto the next task. I need to find that nice tight slider being used.
I need the graphics, I already know how to install it. Where may i find the graphics for that?
The one hard-case posted above a few posts.

thx

Edit* I was getting mixed up when reading all the posts. Some claim the config. needs to be edited and while that is true you can edit that i finally decided to just use the setting/Lockinfo menu to make any changes i needed. Actually Clock Hide shows up there also. I must be mis-reading all the information.

I will try to simplify the install:

Open cydia and add this source ( http://simonv.chronophoto.fr/cydia/ )
When done add http://david.ashman.com/apt (Lock Screen Hide App)

Once the repository updates install the base Lockmatte UI and any other of the plugins that you want (there are several)

Open winterboard and activate the new Lockmatte info Theme
Go to the iPhone Settings scroll down to Lockinfo and customize the way you like

You can always use SSH and copy the files off the iPhone and edit them all you want in order to change the App to your liking.

Hope that helps? I became confused after reading literally hundreds of pages from numerous threads. It's really pretty straight forward but it can become confusing if you read everything posted. Thanks again to hard-case.

Why is this. I look over the code briefly for grupple and matte ui seems like it use the same server "apple or Yahoo" to fetch weather. Any though on why it works with matter but not grupple?


grupple need to implement a setting config like the matte where you can change the config within the phone

I have noticed that it sometimes takes a bit for changes in the mail category to register. Like when I get a new mail, the number might not increase right then when it should.

Otherwise it seems to work very well.

I am almost positive there is a program on Cydia that allows you to disable cover art from showing on your lockscreen. Too lazy to look for it now though..:D

You just need to use the location code "loccode" from the end of that URL.

instead of the UK120 that you inserted... use

Ok this may or may not help you but I had a bit of trouble getting this to work initially as well, as for some reason it was conflicting with a theme I had plus I only skimmed the directions (of course that was my own fault there).

But what got it all working was to install LockInfo, and a lockinfo theme (ie Gruppled LockInfo).

Make sure in Winterboard LockInfo is unchecked, and Gruppled LockInfo or whatever lockinfo theme you have is checked on.

Now the calender and everything should be showing, you will then want to modify the config.js file located in /Libary/Themes/Gruppled\ LockInfo.theme/Bundles/com.ashman.Lockinfo/ for any customizations that you may want to do to the lockscreen.

Also if you have another theme that you want to modify everything else on your iPhone, make sure you drag that theme to the top of the winterboard list (above Gruppled LockInfo and LockInfo at least) so that all the customizations work such as that themes or user selected background on the lockscreen).

Attached are 2 screens of my final theme setup.

[Diversion]

Looks like MacThemes is down.. =(

Thanks Tag for the quick response. I just searched Cydia. I have LockInfo installed. I DON'T have Gruppled LockInfo. It doesn't even show up in search. I'm pretty sure I have the appropriate sources.

Ok yeah I forgot to mention Gruplled LockInfo isnt in a repository on Cydia that I know of. Maybe someone else can chime in on that one.

Here is what I did to get Gruppled LockInfo onto my iPhone...
There are probably easier ways but hey it is what I did so here you go...


1) Install openSSH on your iPhone (which I assume you already have on there)
2) Install wget on your iPhone
3) Install unzip on your iPhone

(all 3 above can be gotten on Cydia)

The page with this listed on macthemes is down but it is here http://macthemes2.net/forum/viewtopic.php?id=16794932

Gruppled Lock Info's creators mediafile page is at http://www.mediafire.com/gruppler

the direct link is http://download558.mediafire.com/a42rjtr2domg/qzmziyzkwet/Gruppled+LockInfo.theme-0.9.5.2.zip

So on your iPhone, goto the directory /Library/Themes and type

A)wget http://download558.mediafire.com/a42rjtr2domg/qzmziyzkwet/Gruppled+LockInfo.theme-0.9.5.2.zip
B)unzip Gruppled+LockInfo.theme-0.9.5.2.zip
C)rm Gruppled+LockInfo.theme-0.9.5.2.zip

Now it is installed and go enable it from Winterboard.

And hey maybe you have a quicker way to get the files onto your iPhone so anyways at least the files needed are listed above. Good luck.

[threezero]

after tinkering with it all night I finally got it to work and display the way I want. Man this is 1000X better than intelliscreen. No lag miminal memory use so far.

I'm using the grupple theme, although it looks really nice its missing many of the plugin that the matte theme has like RSS, twitter, thingstodo etc.

Anybody know how i can implement it into the grupple theme?
I tried staight drag and drop into from matte into the grupple theme the individual plugin but understandably it won't work. Any ideas?

[BearF16]

Holy *&^% Tag! That worked! Thank you! Why couldn't everyone else just say what you did. Thanks again!

[srl7741]

tag ^ Love that theme and background. It looks great.

[tag]

Thanks srl7741, I really like how it finally looks of course I'll probably just get bored of it in a week like I always do.

Great BearF16, I'm glad I could help you getting it up and running. And hopefully it will help anyone else still stuck, as LockInfo really is an awesome app to have and use.

[iphone529]

Ok yeah I forgot to mention Gruplled LockInfo isnt in a repository on Cydia that I know of. Maybe someone else can chime in on that one.

Here is what I did to get Gruppled LockInfo onto my iPhone...
There are probably easier ways but hey it is what I did so here you go...


1) Install openSSH on your iPhone (which I assume you already have on there)
2) Install wget on your iPhone
3) Install unzip on your iPhone

(all 3 above can be gotten on Cydia)

The page with this listed on macthemes is down but it is here http://macthemes2.net/forum/viewtopic.php?id=16794932

Gruppled Lock Info's creators mediafile page is at http://www.mediafire.com/gruppler

the direct link is http://download558.mediafire.com/a42rjtr2domg/qzmziyzkwet/Gruppled+LockInfo.theme-0.9.5.2.zip

So on your iPhone, goto the directory /Library/Themes and type

A)wget http://download558.mediafire.com/a42rjtr2domg/qzmziyzkwet/Gruppled+LockInfo.theme-0.9.5.2.zip
B)unzip Gruppled+LockInfo.theme-0.9.5.2.zip
C)rm Gruppled+LockInfo.theme-0.9.5.2.zip

Now it is installed and go enable it from Winterboard.
Hopefully I didn't leave anything out.

And hey maybe you have a quicker way to get the files onto your iPhone so anyways at least the files needed are listed above. Good luck.

Thanks Tag, Can you send me or post your config.js file, I cannot get mine to show the info for files with no contents, ie in your picture above it says (0) next to sms and mail and others. Also how do you change the slider.

Thanks Tag, Can you send me or post your config.js file, I cannot get mine to show the info for files with no contents, ie in your picture above it says (0) next to sms and mail and others. Also how do you change the slider.

Sure to this post I added my config.js file saved as a txt file for your perusal.

Basically you just need to set I believe...

// Hide empty sections?
var hideEmptySections = false;


As to the slider with the nice scrolling curling design around the unlock slider, it is part of a theme called iGlassSol which can be gotten on Cydia. If you want to use it as in my prior post stated, enable it along with Whatever LockInfo theme you have and move iGlassSol above it, and all should work out.

If you want to change the text as I have...

On your iPhone,

1)Goto /Library/Themes/
2)Create a folder called whatever you want, I chose 'robsiphone'
3)Inside this folder keep making folders exactly to create this path...
/Library/Themes/robsiphone/Bundles/com.apple.springboard/en.lproj/
4)Inside the folder en.lproj create a file called 'SpringBoard.strings'

Inside this SpringBoard.strings file copy the following into and save (dont forget to modify it to say what you want.)

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC>
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
<key>AWAY_LOCK_LABEL</key>
<string>Rob's iPhone</string>
</dict>
</plist>

Once copied and saved, go to Winterboard and enable whatever you called this theme extension and viola all done.

[jimmy83]

You just need to use the location code "loccode" from the end of that URL.

instead of the UK120 that you inserted... use

EUR|UK|UK120|Portsmouth

Thanks, I used Portsmouth, UK in the end

Iam using 20second lockscreen atm, but once those 20secs are up the screen locks even if you have you finger on it-can you change this?

When you install iGlassSol or whatever other theme that has a slider unlocker, move it to the top of the Winterboard list so it is above all the screenlock apps such as Gruppled LockInfo and it should replace the tap unlock of Gruppled with iGlassSols slide unlocker.

You can just ssh the Gruppled folder into private/var/stash/themes, go to WB, enable Gruppled (not LockInfo) then restart.

[samven582]

Just a heads up for those of you who use the free alternative to Intelliscreen, LockInfo has been updated to work with 3.0. However some people are experiencing springboard crashes upon updating. To get the update, add http://david.ashman.com/beta/ to your Cydia sources and install "Lockscreen Info". If your SB crashes and you would like to help the author in trouble shooting the problem, please refer to page 49 of the following official LockInfo thead at MacThemes.

http://macthemes2.net/forum/viewtopic.php?id=16794311&p=49

Here is also a thread detailing just the theme and how to configure your preferences for Winterboard.
http://macthemes2.net/forum/viewtopic.php?id=16794833&p=1


Updated 7-10-09
Sorry for not keeping up with this thread, I posted it in passing, never thinking it would get so many responses.

Lockinfo 1.0.61 should be working now for everyone. The only problem I know of is that under the mail settings it displays two Gmail accounts if you have one. To get it to show up in Cydia, add http://david.ashman.com/beta/ to your sources. Additionally, add http://david.ashman.com/apt/ if you would like to hide the default lock screen clock and grey bar. Most lockinfo themes display info where the clock is normally so you should hide it. The image below is from the author, not me, so I cannot answer questions about why its a certain size to time/date. I just copied it from his thread over at Macthemes.com.

I have tested most of the Lockinfo themes and I prefer the Gruppled theme, which is displayed in the image below. The config.js file has a plethora of comments which allows for easy modification even for those of us that have no idea what a config.js file is. Following, is a link to Macthemes that describes the theme and how to customize it. http://macthemes2.net/forum/viewtopic.php?id=16794932&p=1

To install the theme, you must SSH into your phone and add/configure the files that you will download from the thread. Again, the config.js file has detailed comments telling you how to configure this theme to display exactly what you want.
http://david.ashman.com/beta
http://david.ashman.com/apt

these two links are not working!

[samven582]

I will try to simplify the install:

Open cydia and add this source ( http://simonv.chronophoto.fr/cydia/ )
When done add http://david.ashman.com/apt (Lock Screen Hide App)

Once the repository updates install the base Lockmatte UI and any other of the plugins that you want (there are several)

Open winterboard and activate the new Lockmatte info Theme
Go to the iPhone Settings scroll down to Lockinfo and customize the way you like

You can always use SSH and copy the files off the iPhone and edit them all you want in order to change the App to your liking.

Hope that helps? I became confused after reading literally hundreds of pages from numerous threads. It's really pretty straight forward but it can become confusing if you read everything posted. Thanks again to hard-case.

I tried installing this and giving me a error. It tells me "the requested modifications cannot be applied due to required dependencies or conflicts that cannot be automatically found or fixed:

anybody using hide clock mod lost their slience icon?

I did several mods and than suddenly I just notice I've lost my silence icon on the statusbar.

Things i've done lockinfo theme -> grupple theme -> clock hide -> mod the slider -> remove status notifier and replace with notifier -> mod the notifier icons.

I'm trying to pinpoint where exact the icon got lost. Atm this isn't such a big deal to warrant a restore but would be nice to get it back

I hope this helps out guys.:)

Dang, stole half my idea! ;)

I need to redo my iphone tonight (going to try purplera1n as with redsn0w my battery percentage meter is REALLY wonky, and cydia is a tad crashy), so I was going to write up a tutorial with images of how to go from a just jailbroken iphone to getting LockInfo working properly, since a lot of people seem to be having issue (not just here) and the threads out there on MacThemes with the info are just too frigging huge to work with.

Also, just to note to people here, in this section here:
// (remove the "//" if you want it to show up) "Clock",
"Weather",
"Mail",
"Calendar",
"Calls",
"Voicemail",
"SMS",
];

The order in which the items appear in that list are the order they will appear on the lock screen. I changed mine around a bit (still a work in progress):

Hey Hard-case, what theme are you using for your lockinfo screen? Or are those all just custom icons. I like the look of it, including the stuff at your top status bar as well.

Working fine for me.

If you can't get LockScreen Info + a LockScreen Info theme to work, you're most likely doing something wrong. The relevant links have already been posted here so I won't go into how to get everything set-up correctly...but it all works.

BTW, Intelliscreen might work great, but believe me when I say that it uses a tremendous amount of memory as well as draining your battery faster. If you use LockScreen Info + a relevant theme, you can configure pretty much everything, including how often to poll for things like email, rss feeds and whatnot. The memory footprint is also negligible. Intelliscreen caused me troubles in the past, and since I stopped using it, i've never had any reason to go back.

Why pay for something when there are other free options out there that don't consume memory + battery life + have more customizable features? Not to mention, because LSI + themes are all HTML/JS based, new features can be added in the future extremely easily.

I would love the custom.plist for that. If anyone knows how to do that, that would be awesome. Also, anyone knows of any guides for doing all this stuff. I am extremely new to this.

iblacklist, irealsms (and the quick version) + intelliscreen can do this but not without hogging all the memory and making the phone buggy.


I have irealsmsquick, it has an option to turn off sms alert. It work however the screen no longer light up when i get a sms only the sound. Also when i unlock the phone the quickreply isn't there

Why must we install the theme for Lockinfo btw?

I just installed LockInfo from Cydia after adding the new source and I'm already getting missed calls, emails, etc. on my lockscreen.

Are people using the theme for the modification aspect? I think i'm golden with the default being used, other than my lockscreen background is a bit too bright, making the LockInfo text hard to read.

I wanted to change the section header text from center to left, since I felt it looked better, and thought I'd post it as I'm sure someone else will want to do this too.

Using SSH navigate to the Gruppled theme folder - the same folder the config. js file can be found it.

Open the CSS folder

Open the "structure.css" file

Find this tag and 2 following lines:

.header {
height:18px;
line-height:18px;

Further down in that same tag you'll see
text-align:center;

Simply change "center" to "left"
text-align:left;

Upload the file and respring.

Done.

when i try to open the gruppled theme file so that i can edit it (like it says to do in the link to the macthemes2 site), cyberduck just keeps timing out...does anyone know why?

[hard-case]

Dang, stole half my idea! ;)

Hey Hard-case, what theme are you using for your lockinfo screen? Or are those all just custom icons. I like the look of it, including the stuff at your top status bar as well.

It's actually a hodgepodge of different things. The "core" of it is the Gruppled LockUI theme. I borrowed the lockscreen slider from the main GruppledArt Theme
which can be found here:
http://macthemes2.net/forum/viewtopic.php?id=16794932
The slider icons are located under /Bundles/com.apple.TelephonyUI, you just grab these files:
bottmbarbkgndlock.png
bottombarknobgray_pressed.png
bottombarknobgray.png
bottombarknobgreen.png
bottombarknobred.png

The icons on the actual status entry bars I took from some of the iconsets here:
http://iphonetoolbox.com/category/icons/
I just resized them to IIRC 20x20 (they probably should be dropped down to 19x19 to fit better).
Those icons get placed in /Bundles/com.ashman.LockInfo/images. The main bar icon has an "h" at the end of the name, and the subheading icons have the straight name. For example, in my image the green SMS icon on the main bar is "smsh.png", whereas the white bubble is "sms.png"

The top bar comes mostly from stuff I grabbed from ModMyI. The signal strength bars are called "Red To Green Signal Bars", and can be found here:
http://www.modmyi.com/forums/downloads/signal-bars/14/red-green-signal-bars-117/
The WiFi icons (which I think needs a tweak to be a bit smaller) are called "Deep Blue RSS WiFi", and can be found here:
http://www.modmyi.com/forums/downloads/signal-bars/14/deep-blue-rss-wifi-18481/
The battery icons are called "Blue Battery", and can be found here:
http://www.modmyi.com/forums/downloads/other/15/blue-battery-title-bar-status-bar-header-24461/

The AT&T carrier logo is on Cydia as "AT&T Carrier Logo".
The 3G icon is also on Cydia as "3G Fireball Icon".

I'm still working on the mega guide idea.....trouble is I spent most of yesterday upgrading the HD on my MBP to a WD Scorpio Blue 500gb, and taking the old drive and tossing it into my PS3. Now that I've got that all taken care of I can finish working on the guide and the theme tweaks.

I ran into this, too. I found that if my phones screen locked, it would drop wifi and switch back to 3g. As soon as I unlocked it, it would jump back onto wifi and I was good to go.

Annoying.

[hard-case]

nevermind. I got it work but mail/calendering is not showing

This might not necessarily be an error, depending on settings.

For example, with calendar it will be dependent on how far you're setting it to display events. If you're only viewing events over the next 2-3 days, but there are no events, by default you will not even have a calendar entry.

With email, if you have no new email, by default the email entry will not appear in the lock screen.

I believe this is controlled in the config.js file by the following section:
// Hide empty sections?
var hideEmptySections = true;

I have it set to true, and any headers with no relevant info are hidden. False should make the entries appear as just title bars with "Mail (0)"/"Calendar (0)"...

[threezero]

The Gruppled theme has to be on your iphone first. make sure WiFI is working on iPhone, check display, as Cyberduck works via Wifi.

insomnia can be turn on and off, there is even a toggle for sbsettings for insomnia. I only left it on when i'm messing with my phone thru ssh or d/ling big files, no sense to leave it on otherwise.

Will affect ur battery if u have it on as your phone must be making a constant connection to do something. but its so easy to turn off and should be off most of the time its not really a big issue.

To do this, you could download iBlacklist. Turn off all the blacklist/whitelist features, and in the extras menu you disable the Call and SMS notifications. You'll get the sound/vibration, but it will block the lock screen popup window.

The other functions like sms and mail disappear when I check the mail or sms is this normal should they not stay on the screen as I am using your exact config file?

Try moving the Art theme above the grippled theme in Winterboard. That seemed to do it for me. Hope that helps.

[scottuf]

in the config .js file change this to false:

// Hide empty sections?
var hideEmptySections = true;

[fishmd]

To those who have the sections showing "Not Found" after the update to the Lock Matte theme, re-spring your phone. They should go away then. At least it worked for me.:D

As to the Twitter extension, this does work perfectly well with the LockMatte theme. Download the extension and enable it through the Apple Settings/LockInfo/Twitter section. I do not think that you can get this to work with Gruppled, but maybe someone will get the files over to make it work. There is currently nothing in the Gruppled config.js file though that would allow this.

Thanks. I just ended up moving the selected files from the Art theme telephony UI in to the Gruppled lockinfo Telephony UI. That took care of it and I disabled the art theme as it was conflicting with my glaskart.

in the config .js file change this to false:

// Hide empty sections?
var hideEmptySections = true;

Thanks a million that did the trick.

Special that to Dhlizard, tag, hard-case, fishmd
This is my final product with Gruppled Art small slider, Gruppled lockinfo theme, and glaskart theme on winterboard. You guys are great for being so helpful and patient.

I am on a Mac and I just use text edit to change config.js file.

I have the screen configured to only open the SMS & mail bars show when there is a text or mail message, otherwise they are hidden. That can be changed.

For the thin slider, Hard Case put the links up to add that slider in an earlier post on this thread.

I am using another slider which I like better.

Edit: I see you got it all working. Looks good!

Hmmm... I actually have one last issue. I downloaded the things todo source to use in lockinfo but there is no section showing todo's??? I'm using the todo's with the red app logo. Do I need to be using the blue 9.99 todo app? Also I placed the things todo on the very top of my winterboard list and didn't resolve the issue. Any input?

[threezero]

todo plugin wont work with the grupple theme.

also i have found a bug, the slide to unlock text is hidden in all circumstances except when i get a push notification.

I posted in an earlier post here (http://forums.macrumors.com/showpost.php?p=8065506&postcount=117) about how to change the text on the slider to whatever you want. If you create this file and move it to the top of your winterboard, it will override the no text thing and display whatever you want as the slider text. If you wanted it back to default, just have the text say Slide To Unlock... like it used to.

Haha, I was just gonna post about the same problem. It does not seem to update right away for me either. I am not sure why this is. Tends to do it with all three of my email accounts I have set up. I get the email alert sound, but no change with the number on the lockscreen. I will add that this is not always consistent. If I tend to wait a little while before I check, it seems to be correct. I am guessing it is a problem with the mail script, and maybe how often it is checking with the mail program or something.

Anyone else?

Do you have everything in one folder and you just enable that in WB, ive got around 5differant things running in WB atm-trying to reduce it.

Are we right in ignoring the updates for lockscreen in Cydia, I read that peeeps are having problems with it?

[dhlizard]

What slider is that?

Part of the theme. You could pull the slider folder out and drop it into any theme if you like that color.

As you see if you look at my edited Lockscreen page, I dropped a wide slider into the theme as it was just too much color for me !

Nope, the whole thing is in one folder for me. I generally grab a theme I like, then replace all the parts I don't like with parts I do like (sliders, colors, backgrounds) and use the config.js to set the order and what to display and not to display.

After a while you just learn where the parts which control each item are stored in the folder. Very confusing at 1st. I have only been doing custom theming about 2 weeks or so.

I accept all updates, both Cydia and all the mods I got off Cydia. I am not having any problems.

I have DL'ed a couple things off Cydia which haven't been updated to work with 3.0, put me into safe mode, but I just got rid of them, and all was OK.

I'm using Glass Orb theme with Gruppled Lockinfo and Gruppled Art installed. When I open applications and then exit them the status bar disappears, which is usually fixed by putting the phone into sleep then waking it. I had this problem earlier, right after updating to 3.0 and realized it was because I was using themes not yet updated for 3.0. Is anyone else having this problem? It happened after installing the Gruppled Lockinfo, which I downloaded from the website in the initial post, perhaps there has been an update?

Anyone using the Gruppled Art theme notice that the status bar disappears after you open any app and then close it?

It comes back everytime you open an app, but is gone when you're just looking at the springboard.

Kind of annoying since I can't see my signal strengths and the SBSettings screen can't be brought up unless I open something up...

I've narrowed it down to the Gruppled Art theme by playing around with different combinations in Winterboard....

From what I have discovered, it does not work well if you have both "Extend to Bottom" and "Scrolling" turned on. It seems you can only do one or the other. If you do just scrolling, it should work well, but the disadvantage is it will not go all the way to the bottom of the screen. So take your pick, until someone makes a fix to allow for both I guess. ;)

scrolling doesn't work for me with extend on or off, it still only bounces. not sure if there is a setting in the config.js or one of the other .js files to allow scrolling.

Get iBlacklist in Cydia

iBlacklist has options that hide the SMS notification window. It is part of the free version of the app, so you don't need to buy a registration key.

1. Install iBlacklist
2. Run iBlacklist
3. Go down to the "Extras" menu
4. Set SMS and MMS privacy to on.
5. Voila, no more notifications popping up.

You might need to respring your phone after step 4 to get the results, I don't remember.

I have looked around and for the life of me can't figure out how to get the full calendar on the lock screen. Any help is appreciated. I did read though a ton of threads and looked around before asking this question.

Depending on what LockScreen theme you're using.. I am using Gruppled along with LockInfo, here is what to do to get the calender to show:

This is if you're using Gruppled, the navigation and config file might be different if you're using something else.

1. SSH into your iPhone.

2. Navigate to /Library/Themes/Gruppled LockInfo.theme/Bundles/com.ashman.LockInfo

3. Make a backup of "config.js"

4. Open "config.js"

5. Look for this section:

// Arrange and/or disable (by commenting-out) sections:
// To enable a section, remove the "//" at the beginning of the line
var sections = [
"Clock",
"Weather",
"Mail",
"Calendar",
"Calls",
"Voicemail",
"SMS",
];

Make sure that "Clock", doesn't have // in front of it.

6. Scroll down a bit and look for this section

// Draw a monthly calendar as a collapsable subsection of the custom clock
var showMonth = true;

Make sure it is set to true, and not false.

7. Save the file back to the directory.

8. Respring your phone, wait for it to load up and it should work.

9. If anything goes wrong, restore to your backed up "config.js" file and respring your device again.

10. You might want to get Lockscreen Clock Hide from Cydia to disable the default iPhone lockscreen clock, it will look much nicer.

[nickels]

Worked!

Since we're at it is there a way to use Gruppled but with a original slider and not the simple press lock? I will look over the config.js settings for a clue.

I attempted to add my location to the weather but I have no idea what results I am getting. It certainly isn't 31 degrees here:

Thanks for the help. These tricks are pretty fun once you get the hang of it.

I'm not sure about the lock, I'd prefer an actual slide bar too rather than the "push anywhere" feature.

As for your weather.. are you updating it? Also is it maybe in celsius or fahrenheit? I'm Canadian so I'm not sure if 31 celsius results to a reasonable fahrenheit hehe.

Have a look around in this thread...there's answers to both questions somewhere around here...

For the slider bar, you can apply another theme (that has a slider bar) and move it on top of the lock theme in winterboard. or you can just ssh the slider bar out of that theme and put it into your lock theme.

This is probably confusing if you haven't read the entire thread...

Oh right...I remember it trying to figure out the french on that site. :D

You didn't modify anything in SSH? I'm looking to keep my current theme but just add color to the lockscreen and maybe change the type of font. Do you think you can give me a few pointers of where I can start (i.e. folder pathways where I can SSH and modify fonts/icons)?

Thanks.

Just managed to get the NeutraFace all caps font

Very nice! I don't suppose you'd be willing to share the font? I've searched high and low and can't find it anywhere...

Worked!

Since we're at it is there a way to use Gruppled but with a original slider and not the simple press lock? I will look over the config.js settings for a clue.



I found out how to replace the "tap to unlock" with an actual slide bar (and a pretty one at that).

1. Take the two attached files here.

2. Navigate to /Library/Themes/Gruppled LockInfo.theme/Bundles/com.apple.TelephonyUI/

3. Copy the 2 attached files into that folder, overwriting the 2 with the same name that are in there.

The slide bar will look like this:

No, I have modded quite a bit via SSH.... From previous ----> I have done some mods to it (font, slider, background, etc) plus Message (SMS) bubbles, status bar Wifi, 3G, Battery indicators, others I can't recall just now.

Start with the theme, decide what you want to change, go thru this thread plus Google to find info on locations & mods

I've got everything you listed there (just finished editing .png files for lock background and changing SMS bubbles) but am still trying to find out how to change font styles.

I'll keep looking...man...this stuff is time consuming...

I'm waking up tired for work every day after staying up late to make mods to my phone! :D

Awesome, thanks!!! I will be making my own graphics but this is a step in the right direction.

I replaced my slider with the gray one and it looks nice. However, when i get a call i still have a lock icon and have to press instead of slide. Anyone have a fix for this?

Any other Theme that you have used or like ? for ex. Gruppled Art
look inside that folder -> Bundles -> com.apple.TelephonyUI (there were about 22 images in Gruppled Art Theme)
copy all the files from that Theme to your active LockInfo.theme/Bundles/com.apple.TelephonyUI

and respring ... worked for me

similarly if you like bits of other Themes you can mix & match by copying images over to your new theme

Im using gruppled art. There are only 3 files in com.apple.telephony folder.
