Yea, I noticed that too, though it is not something I had written. I'm using the weather script posted earlier in the thread. I looked at the weather script and it seems to be doing what it should.
Got a tip for us?

I have tried the two weather sources apple and yahoo in configureme.js
My weather is always off when I cross check and update interval is 30 minutes. But after respringing it loads the weather and concurrently doesnt match up with the apple weather app or yahoo weather website.
Anyone else having this issue?

Hi Claude,
Thanks for adding the weather and the separate style sheet. I had a helluva time trying to get the rotated text correctly positioned - the "X" location varied depending on text length, which didn't make sense. I would also agrue that it's considerably hooter than 83 degree here, but WTFDIK.
Anyhow, I put the weather into my HTML file and it looks like this:
Thanks Claude and everyone else.

Is there an easy way to just shut the weather off and move the clock etc up? Can you point me where to edit to make that change? Theme is working perfectly otherwise.
In the file weather/configureMe.js, there is a variable call showWeather variable. Set that to false. It will not load the weather at all.
I'll see if I can muck with this weather thing and frankenstein it to my liking.... will probably break it ^^
Yeah, I found that, but then the top of the clock is cut off by the status bar. Hopefully the weather widget will be updated soon.
Edit: If you can fix it, that would be awesome. If not, is there a way I can shut it off and have the clock not cut off by the status bar? I'm not a programmer, and I'm sure its easy, but I dont want to screw anything up.

dgstan......can you post your entire theme file that is from this screenshot?....i love how it looks!
thanks!
I fixed it by first disabling weather with the "false" variable, then going into the html file and putting a <br> between the two weather scripts before the </head> I now have a nice lockscreen, but it would be awesome to have working weather. I was just sick of re-springing to get the weather back.
LOVING THIS!!!
Thank you very much to the OP, and all who have contributed
I just wish the text had a slight dropshadow under it to make it pop out on light backgrounds!

I notice that when people call you it doesnt show the contact picture!!!
any solution to that?!
I love this thing!! Here is mine after tweaking it a little bit...
Is that LOCKINFO you're using to get the mail & notifications on the screen? If it is how do you force it to the BOTTOM half of the screen? It's always on top for me.
Is there a way to get rid of the "leading ZERO" when the hour is a single digit? The big ZERO is really unnecessary especially since it says AM or PM (or you can look out the windows to see if it is night or day).
yes, somewere in the settings you can move the position were it will be
thats the lower you can go btw
I don't know which version of the code you're using, but it looks like the old one that uses png files to define the time/date, then you will need to edit each png to add the dropshadow.
However, if you are using Claude's updated text-based version, it's easy to modify the style of the text. For example:
Code:
div#hourbox {
position:absolute;
left:5px;
top:0px;
font-size:170px;
line-height:170px;
color:#fff;
[B]text-shadow: 3px 3px 3px #000000;[/B]
}The "3px" entries define the size of the shadow and the "#000000" is the color (black in this case).
Here's what I've currently got. I modified the text colors to match my new background, but you can change it back easily enough.

i thought i just wanna try to ask again all the lockscreen modding experts out there...
is there anyway to disable the lockscreen theme while you are at the passcode screen? or maybe stick a different overlapping background to the passcode screen so it will overlap the lockscreen them?
At the moment, it just looks so cluttered...surprise no one else find that annoying and distracting away from the awesome lockscreen...or maybe everyone uses androidxt to look their phone!
Would appreciate any input!

Doesn't really bother me as you only see the passcode screen for the few seconds when youre typing it in.
BTW - When using Claude's weather, I found the default source to be completely inaccurate. For example: this morning around 9am, it still said it was night, not to mention, it's been consistently reporting about 5 degrees cooler than reality. If you find you're having the same type of problems, simply change the source of the weather info to his alternate source of Yahoo Weather.
Then for the locale, simply enter your zipcode.
I have found this source to be much more accurate.
Code:
var source = 'yahooWeather'; //'appleAccuweatherStolen'|'yahooWeather'Then for the locale, simply enter your zipcode.
Code:
var locale = "92679"; //e.g. 'Defiance, Ohio'|'Moscow, Russia'|'Ledyard, AT'|'London, UK'|"USNY0996"|"Wurzburg, DE"I have found this source to be much more accurate.
Thanx....i guess it's not such a big deal for most people here..
oh well, will learn to live with it in time! lol
In LOCKINFO settings? I looked but can't find it. Maybe it's my old eyes. I'll keep looking.
Thanks.
I'm sorry I can't answer your question, but would you mind posting the HTML you've got for your lockscreen there? It looks cool!
Settings>lockinfo>lockscreen>layout
There's a slider bar at the bottom for the position, slide it to the right to move the info downwards.
