This is a re-release of my old port of Kris Mendoza's lock screen theme, Nobelis. Permission has been granted, as mentioned in the old thread.

The reason I'm re-releasing this is because I wasn't satisfied at all with my previous attempt and wanted to design a lock screen theme using all the elements that are generally lacking. As such, Nobelis HD themes almost every single LS element, including tethering images, passcode lock stuff, iPod controls, status bar, etc. Many people have complained about the power off slider bar, as well as various other images not looking right when themed - I cannot do anything about this, so don't ask me. Apple has changed the way certain images are handled in iOS5 and there's simply no way I can make everything perfect without screwing something else up. This is as good as I can make this theme, unless someone else figures out an alternative solution.

I want to give credit to Kris, of course, and also to dageek (@tehh4ck3r on Twitter) for his very generous help with figuring out all the image names and locations, as well as doing a very brief beta test. Thanks!

This has only been tested on iOS 5.0 and I do not plan on updating this or releasing it for other firmwares. You are free to re-name and re-package the images for other firmwares, but please give credit if you post it somewhere else. Enjoy!

Got it to work on my 5, changed LockScreenCamera@2x~iphone in bundles/spingboard to CameraGrabber@2x~iphone

Edit just noticed on the screen (too tired to see on the phone) but it's not lined up right... but at least it's the right icon i guess

You could probably change where the camera slider is drawn

e.g.
</*random code here*/>
camera-slider_left = 200px;
camera-slider_top = 160px;


this of course is NOT the actual code but the idea is the same... I think I am going to try this now because I wanted to change where the WHOLE slider is at using this manual method but no one has pointed me to the file where I can change where it is drawn.. plus I would like to have notifications again.
 
Can you try it and let us know? If it doesn't work, the art work probably need to be redo
 
I'm searching for the right directory now but this the first time I've ever seen iOS. No promises... :/
 
I can't find where the lock screen operates. I found the directory for its .png files but it didn't contain the code that actually constructed the lock screen.

FYI the png's are at:
/System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/TelephonyUI.framework

Don't make changes without copies and I'm not liar for anything.

Does anybody have a version of Nobelis that works on the iPhone 5? All the versions I have tried have an offset camera button.
 
I have the theme working on my iphone 5 but it isn't suited for the change in ios6's png images. I think that the background slider is used for all of the screen promts for reciving calls and powering the phone off so it is really broken.
