Thanks. That was soooooo much easier than I thought it would be. SSH into the iPhone is easy with Fugu, and the directions I followed were very detailed and easy to understand. I'm very happy with the results. Now I've said this numerous times and I'm a gonna say it again:
Hello Apple??? See this??? If you want the jailbreak thing to stop, buy all these apps and incorporate them into OS 4.0!!!

ctt1wbw,
Is the month view calendar part of the LockInfo "Clock Plug-In" from the BETA repo I directed you to, or is it part of the "Gruppled" theme?
I would love to get my LockInfo to look exactly like yours but I don't want to install Winterboard. If you could give me a link to the directions you used, I sure would appreciate it. I would like to see how close I cam come to how your screen looks just using LockInfo and associated plug-ins.
I would really like to get weather icons to work natively with WeatherIcon. I got an email response from David Ashman saying that the icons may be part of the next revision of WeatherIcon somewhere down the road.
Thanks in advance...
The month view is part of the gruppled theme, but I saw a post by the dev on the macthemes forum that he is considering making that a part of the native rendering.
NICE theme 
WOULD LOVE TO HAVE THIS THEME ON MY LOCK SCREEN
Where??? How??
PLEASE!!!
Just mixing some bits and this is what I've come up with that feels classy enough to keep.

Okay, here's the link:
LockInfo Theme
Yes, I believe you still have to use Winterboard. The trick is to only activate the things for this theme, and nothing else. I hate Winterboard, but so far with only these three things activated, it's pretty stable.
It's so easy to do. I used a program called Fugu to ssh into my iPhone. It's so easy. Just follow the directions to the letter and you should be jolly good.

Hello! I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this, but I am wondering if anyone has any idea to make plugins for lockinfo. If you know how to do it I think my request should be pretty simple. I go to a flight school and I constantly check the current weather. In aviation we use somethign called METAR codes. I was wondering if it was possible to have these on the lockscreen with lockinfo. Current METAR's can be found many place on the internet but I use http://weather.noaa.gov/weather/metar.shtml. Has anyone any idea on how to do this?
Thank you so much!
Erik
Thank you so much!

I think LockInfo is great!
I've got a lockscreen and a theme I'm very happy with...
what theme is this? Looks awesome. If you can post this and if there is a way to use it without WB, that is how my phone will look.
It requires Winterboard. You'll find the theme over at the Xsellize website...under Themes. I believe it's called "Mones and Lexs Lock and Home Screen".
All credits goes to Lexs and Mones (the creators) for their work on this. I think a lot of their themes use the Lockinfo programming from Dave. I'm pretty much a newbie...maybe an intermediate newbie now!
I've done some simple modding of the theme but for the most part it's their theme. There are some other very nice lockinfo/weather themes over there also.
Here's a links...

I'd just love to know how you got the weather with the moon and everything!
Post that, and your first drink is on me (you're local to me!).
BL.
See the above post...it's part of a packaged theme at Xsellize.
I tweeked it a bit as you'll see (compared to the Xsellize theme). I used the weather icons from the weather widget (up top) in weather section of the lockinfo...changed around the icons a bit...but that's about it. Yea...I love these weather icons. Pretty cool.
Here's a link to the specific theme...

Nice! Now go to the LockInfo settings under the Settings control panel and change the background transparency. Now it should look different.
Has anyone else had their batteries go to crap after updating to the latest LockInfo. I was a beta tester and loved LockInfo so I did finally go ahead an upgrade to the latest version and am currently using native rendering and my battery is now doing horrible. I did reset my weather to only check every hour, just incase that was it, but no help. I have not installed or updated anything else recenlty so I think that this must be the problem. Next I guess I will just uninstall it and see if the battery life improves, but I love LockInfo. It is the main reason for my jailbreak.
Anyone else having battery issues?

Best way for me to diagnose if this is somehow related to LockInfo is for you to install syslogd, let it run for a couple days and send me your /var/log/syslog file at iphone-support_at_ashman_dot_com. I can use that to see if something in LockInfo is being overactive on your phone.
I'll be uninstalling lockinfo very soon, when my 14 day trial is up. I'm annoyed by the fact that he's decided to start charging for it. You'd think all the feedback that users have provided in this forum would have been a goodwill gesture to keep it free.
but......to go ahead and unleash it via an update as a 14 day trial, without warning was absolutely classless.

And I on the other hand feel the $4.99 is well worth it. I have donated to David Ashman before and will likely do it again after buying LockInfo.
David Ashman is just about the most responsive developer we have. He even answers emails about problems.
Lets face it, cheap is as cheap does ! He probably has 200-300 hours in on just LockScreen Info extension alone, notwithstanding all his other free stuff out there.
You realize that the Developer has just now posted in this forum? So no... Nobody here has provided him significant feedback. Also, do you not think the countless hours the developer has put in to respond to the feedback and constant requests of users all over the internet (mostly on the macthemes forum actually) it would be a goodwill gesture to pay the measly 5 bucks for it?
So yea... I'm sure that Microsoft gives all their open beta testers free copies of windows because, you know, all the support the help they've given to Microsoft in the OPEN beta...
Also, if you actually looked at the Macthemes forum you'd see the developer had given a lot of prior notice about the app going to a paid app. If you're really a beta tester and really were communicating with the developer on the proper forum, you would have known this.
But it's up to him if he wants to give people copies of the app for their help or support in beta (people who donated during beta got licenses) and it's up to you if you want to pay for it now that it's a final release.
Agreed. I'm not a lockinfo fanboy (hehehe
) but it's absurd to think that because we made some random posts on an unaffiliated message board about LI theming, that we should receive the app for free. Also, incidentally, I re-emailed the dev about a license since I donated during the beta stage and he responded within a few hours giving me a license. I felt like I should post that as an update to my previous post He just must not have gotten my first email. I'm a happy camper now

See! Even UngratefulNinja is grateful!
I will do and then send it your way.
5$ is well worth it for the support David gives guys. You will get this with almost no one else.
