iOS lockscreen custom theme

The reason i go for jailbreak is not because piracy. But able to do further more that what Steve restricted to the iOS, example : Custom theme/custom lock screen etc.

Recently i create this custom lock screen theme that able to display weather/big clock/stylish date info, in very clean look that make your ipad look unique than others.
The original source code is based on LS Nimbus, created by techhouse.

But as it is design for iPhone, if you use it on iPad, it doesn’t display properly. So i modified it to make it look compatible with iPad. And changed the wallpaper to something else, since user’s wallpaper doesn’t work with Winterboard in iOS 4.2.1.

Now my iPhone and iPad look more like one family.

To use this theme, you need:

  • Winterboard
  • iPhone Explorer/iPhone Browser to transfer the file into “/root/Library/Themes/”
  • Lockscreen Clock Hide (To hide the default clock/date)
  • You might need to tweak the file to set your local weather info.

Do let me know if you are interested with this custom mod. theme, and i will provide the download link.

Refer to this post for the instruction and download links.

      Hi Ben, Download from this link:
      http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2242126/LS%20Nimbus-HD.theme.zip

      You need Winterboard for this. And you need to unzip the file and using FTP/iPhone Browser/iPhone Explorer transfer the folder to:
      “root/Library/Theme”

      And activate it via Winterboard. Jailbreak is required.

      * Just incase you want to tweak the weather locale, please open the “LockBackground.html” inside the folder using note pad/text edit. And change the variable of line 164:

      var locale = ‘Kuching, Malaysia’

      to

      var locale = ‘Romania’

      and save it, transfer it again.

      Enjoy,
      Henry
