Like suppose I get a notification, it still shows using the Apple notification, but I only want it to show in Lockinfo homescreen. Is there any way to do that?

Are you talking about the pop-ups? If so then there is a setting to block the pop-ups in lockinfo.
 
Hi all,

I have tried to read every page on this forum but I still can't work out how to do this.

I want to install the Matte UI for Lockinfo, but i am confused since I am unsure if i should be installing it from Cydia or uploading the theme files via SSH.

I went ahead and installed it from Cydia, it shows up in Winterboard but when i activate it nothing happens, the theme just doesn't work.

I tried to find a version which i could download and then SSH into the Lockinfo theme's directory but couldn't find anything.

I was also wondering where everyone is finding all these Lockinfo themes which seem to work with the latest version of Lockinfo? Is there a site somewhere which lists them all for download?

Finally, am i correct in understanding that in the latest version of locking I should only be using themes which i can SSH into the lockinfo/theme folder?

Thanks so much
 
make sure the theme is 3.0 compatible. the newest release broke all the old themes. Once you for sure have a theme that is 3.0 ready do this:

1) Put the theme folder in "/Library/LockInfo/Themes" and activate it in LockInfo 3.0 beta.
2) Put the winterboard theme folder in "/var/stash/Themes" and activate it in WinterBoard.
3) Respring

If i recall, Matte UI is not Lockinfo 3.0 ready. But i may be wrong about that point..

Thank you so much for clearing that up for me, do you know if there is a website somewhere which allows me to download 3.0 ready themes?

Or do you know where I can get any of the more popular ones that are 3.0 compatible. I'm trying to do as much as i can myself, but Google's results list so much crap in regards to this.

Thanks again
 
Weather Source

Anyone know how you can modify the weather information source in Lock Weather? Being in Canada, the forecast is way off (I'm assuming it's pulling from the Weather Channel or Accuweather, which both suck for Canadian forecasts).

I think it only uses the built in weather app, but I could be wrong.
 
I used to use Lockinfo in the past and I had two weather locations on my lockscreen.

With Lockinfor 3.0 I am having problems to achieve that. I even tried downloading both weather plugins but they do not work independently.

Please help me with setting weather for two cities on my lockscreen.

anyone has solution how to fix it? (that annoying blank area)
 
One weather location. I asked the dev, that was the response I got. He did say that might change, but it's been months and....
 
LockInfo 3.0 - Tap To Open Voicemail?

On the latest version of lockinfo I get new voicemail notifications on my lock screen, but when i tap on them they do not open my voicemail so I can listen to them.

Is this by design, and it is notification only, but not "tap to open"?

Thanks in advance,

Michael
 
Help getting lockinfo

I have the source and I click on lockinfo press instal but it says I need 4.x when I have 4.3.1 and also libstatus bar. What is that and how do I get it. Plz help



*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.

Same problem here. Lockinfo's voice mail pluggin does not respond to clicks. It just shows you the list of voicemails.
 
5 day forcast text messed up

I recently changed from using lockinfo on my 3g running 4.1 to a 3gs running 4.3.3 and I'm getting a weird double vision on the 5 day forcast. it appears on both the HTC plugin and the native weather plugin.

here is a capture:
img1254nd.jpg


If I refresh the info it goes back to normal

img1255k.jpg


then refresh again and it's messed up again. so its 50/50 whether the weather will be displayed correctly.

is lockinfo fully compatible with 4.3.3? as its a fairly new release could this be the problem? or something else to cause this?

I am running the following on an iPhone4 and do not have this problem;

LI - 3.0.5.0
HTC Plugin for LI - 1.4.0.10
LI Native Weather Plugin
 
HTC plugin is 1.4.0.10 downloaded off cydia, and there was an update on cydia for lock info I just applied and is now 3.0.4.2 (not sure what I had before but it was downloaded 2 days ago).

also disabling HTC plugin did in fact fix the problem for it to be displayed correctly in the native weather plugin before I just updated.

now that its updated (which I guess I should have checked before posting, but figured I just installed a couple days ago... my bad) it seems to be fix, has fancy new weather icons too.

---

Thx for the help.

[edit]
scratch that, still mucked up.
where is 3.0.5.0 available from? is that a beta?
[edit2]
ok found 3.0.5.1 from the beta repo
and...
still mucked up, disabling either htc, or weather native seems to make the other one work ok. but if bother are enabled(I like htc on lock, and native on homescreen and infoshade) I get the double vision effect.
[edit 3]
ok, playing around more, I added htc, native weather, and lock weather, to both my lockscreen and homescreen.

I can't see to get it to do the double vision at all on the lockscreen anymore on any of the plugins, however I can get it to occur on both the htc and the weather native plugin visible on the homescreen.

with just HTC and weather native enabled on both lock and home, can't seem to reproduce...

then with HTC on Lock only and weather native on home, bingo double vision on both again.

[Edit 4]
well, I decided to remove the lock weather plugin as I wasn't using it anyway, and that actually seems to have solved the problem, even though it was even enabled.

I now have HTC plugin on my lockscreen, and the weather native plugin on my homescreen and info shade, and I have not been able to reproduce the double vision effect thus far.

so I consider this resolved.

thx for the input and things to try.

Guys, is anyone experiencing problems with the latest Lockinfo and the iPhone daily alarm?

Every time I turn the alarm off I need to enter the passcode lock. A right PITA when you wanna remain well and truly asleep for a few minutes more ;)

Same here. I figured out you don't have to enter the code, if you slide to unlock, just hit cancel on the dialpad and the alarm will stop. It's one extra step, not too bad.. also, if you slide to unlock and dont enter your code or press cancel, the alarm will automatically stop once the screen dims and turns off.
