I love LockInfo, but for some reason it rapidly decreases my battery. Couldn't figure out why as it was the only JB program that I have. :confused:
 
Go check your weather plugin/s settings. They are probably refreshing too frequently and you can switch them to every 2 or more hours to increase battery life.
 
Collapse/Expand

Right, and nothing is happening. Weird, so I used the original file and it works. But I don't understand why that would make a difference because it appears to be the same file, verbatim. :confused: Oh well!



thanks for your help

Hi buddy,

I'm having the same collapse/Expand problem you had a while ago, did you find the solution?
Thank you
 
Lockinfo is SO buggy. Every so often on my iPhone 4 running iOS 4.1, it will stop working, so that I have to respring. By not working I mean there will be no calendar/weather etc on my lock screen anymore.

Really annoying...
 
I'm trying to use the ClockHide time and date but, the date part on the lockscreen stays saying "Loading Lockinfo". I was able to fix it before but don't recall how. Any help appreciated, thanks fellas.

It decreased my battery rapidly as well and I just uninstalled it. To me battery life is way more important than having the app.

I did this but it seems that the weather updates automatically when the phone is woken up? This kind of defeats the 2 hour feature.

not sure what your problems were as lockinfo does not affect my battery life any noticeable way and I have mine update every hour
 
Anyone know what setting i have to adjust so every new call's header doesnt appear behind the clock and date? -

Every time i miss a call, the header for that missed call appears behind the clock header, or is this just a temporary bug?

Looks like a bug to me. Happening to my phone too.
 
not sure about anyone else, but i've noticed after i had to reinstall lockinfo when i upgraded to 4.2.1, sometimes the plain old clock shows back up (i have it so i have the clock and weather right now, forget the plugin name). all i have to do is hit the sleep button twice and its back to normal but i just wanted to see if anyone else was having this problem...

I used to have that problem bout a year ago, seems like it's very random as u are the second case I've heard, me being the first. What I did was download "lockscreen clockhide" from cydia and use that to hide my clock. It's never happened since. Btw, hope u were talking bout the lockscreen stock clock coming up, if not, then disregard bro.
 
Can anyone help solve a problem for me please?

I recently restored and installed Lockinfo 3.0. However, now that I have it working, I cannot get any other themes in Winterboard to take. I have tried to install 2 different sliders (mini slider and sliders 2.0) and the minimal weather theme and none will work. I currently have the Gruppled theme installed and have tried moving it to the top of winterboard, as well as to the bottom and it still doesnt make a difference.

Another strange observance, when I tick a slider in WB to slow, the default iphone slider stays but the "slide to unlock" text goes away. When I untick the WB slider, the only thing that changes is the "slide to unlock" text comes back.

Does anyone have any ideas on what I can try or why this isn't working? Thanks!

Not sure bout your second question but as for your first, I think the way to theme lockinfo has changed, you'd have to look inside the included themes folders to match up certain images. Lockinfo automatically comes with about four different themes. You could use them as references. I loved the way gruppled look, btw.

Yes, Stimpy changed the file structure and all current theme's are broken for 3.0. You'll need a theme made for 3.0. MacTheme's has a few. There arent many yet since its still in Beta and not widely used.

Thanks, but now I'm confused. I see a lot of people in this thread with custom sliders that are using lockinfo 3.0. Are there specific sliders just for 3.0? I'm just trying to find something minimal and small.

Also, just as a test, I went ahead and deleted 3.0 and reinstalled the old 2.3 lockinfo to see if I could still install any custom sliders and I still cant get them to work. Seems to be some sort of compatibility issue. I disabled gruppled btw.

Can you please elaborate a bit on how to get a custom slider on 3.0? Or can anyone provide a link to a small, unobtrusive slider that would work, as well as how to install it. Thanks

No they're using lock info ON ios 3.0, that's what the threads title meant. Now lock info version 3.0 is in beta and I haven't seen any 3.0 themes posted here. There are a few on macthemes.net.

Ahhh, my bad, thanks. I guess I misread the title. I still cant get any themes to even work with lockinfo 2.3, but I guess I'll just wait for more themes in 3.0 and go from there.

I don't know if that will work for you, because I'm still using lockinfo 2.3, but recently I installed the ENIX theme, and began modifying it. When active, this theme causes blank sliders, which is not too much of a problem since you still know what the slider is for (when receiving a call or when syncing) but still, it's annoying.
I found that there's a file that you have to edit, which contains the strings to be displayed on the slider. Just fill them up, re-upload the strings file and you're good to go.
The file is under the theme 's folder in /Bundles/com.apple.springboard/ and then in the folder corresponding to your language, edit the SpringBoard.strings file.
If you installed your theme via cydia and don't have the files on your computer to edit, I guess the location of themes hasn't changed, it's in /Library/Themes/
Download the contents to your computer, and edit those.
 
im wondering why infoshade cant work over lockinfo. afterall, you have the option to display certain things in each screen. id like to put the more sensitive info (calendar/mail) in infoshade since i dont think anyone would know about infoshade to pull down. id like to have clock, notification, and SMS on LS/HS. i only have 1 page on springboard so being able to pull down infoshade on LS/HS would be nice.
