[REQ]2.1 Lockscreen on 1.6/CM 4.2.15.1 - G1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi
I tried the 2.1 ROM from kingklick and what i really liked was the Lockscreen. Since i take many Pictures and Videos i had to return to a 1.6 version.
I tried to Google nuit i didn`t find anything:
Is there a way to have the 2.1 Lockscreen on the G1 with a 1.6 OS?
Mod edit: Please posts in the right section, or I'm going to eat you

Lockbot pro has what you're looking for. I don't think this belongs in Development either.

isnt there this lockbot thing, that you pass it with the menu button and makes your system laggy and buggy?

You really need to change the title of this to [REQ] or something like this.
I saw the title and thought OMFG 2.1 lockscreen on cyan... and was MASSIVELY disappointed to find it was a question.
Lets just cyan somehow manages to squeeze it into his next G1 update.

Hey, look at that!!!! A question that has been asked hundreds of times!!
And would you LOOK-AT-THAT! You posted in the wrong forum!!!!!
You deserve a medal! (Mostly for stupidity)

I've looked through the lockscreen code in eclair, there's nothing there that's missing from 1.6 that would impede a simple port, so it's doable. However, you think somebody wants to do that instead of just jumping straight to eclair?

AnderWeb does. He's already helped in porting 2.1 music player (with eliot stocker) and a 2.1-like launcher, to 1.6...
I'd like to see it as well AnderWeb.

Definitely, who knows when we'll get proper drivers for eclair for our phones. Till then i would be very content with key features of eclair on donut roms. U have my vote.

i use lockbot free as my lockscreen and its perfect for me. I just deleted all the other screens except the Flan screen.

For me, Lockbot sucks. Lags like crazy, I load it up and I see my home screen, then the lock. The current version has begun with the freezes on my notification bar. I liked lock 2.0 but that didn't have much features nor did it auto start

Lockbot pro is nearly perfect.
But I wont use that app because of the fact that the unlock screen is kept on for two minutes. This is ridiculous.
I want my display timeout but not the unlock screen-display timeout set to two minutes.

Same thing with me i don't know why it wont work
the framework / touchflo home launcher is different from the "tradition" android homescreen so therefore bettercut isn't recognizing the rosise aka touchflo so therefore it isn't working.
its the APP, not the ROM thats causing this problem, its a big bummer i know.

ya, i spoke with the dev of bettercut and he told me he is working on getting bettercut to work with hero, its just a matter of time. he got better keyboard, now bettercuts next.
Try using OpenHome on Hero- you can skin it out to the Hero style (or standard) all you want, change icons, better cut works with it as well. Plus you get 7 home screens and a couple other nice features.

yea but we want to keep rosie running and change the icons.. hope the bettercut for hero comes out very soon. thanks for the info
You can run multiple launchers on the same device. I'm currently running Rosie- but I like the Hero icons personally.
Hopefully the BetterCut dev gets that worked out soon.

Which is the best ROM for me?

Hey I was looking for a new ROM on my new G1. I would like something with a nice digital clock widget, a messaging widget, and just many downloadable widgets. My brother has Hero on his G1 and I love, the only problem is that I don't like the fact that if you slide it up it just freezes... So are there any somewhat similar to Hero but can slide?

As of right now, no. This is because the actual Hero doesn't have the keyboard, and so when you slide it up, it tries to force Rosie into widescreen which it doesn't support, ergo, the crash. You'll just have to live with it. However, Drizzy has been making some progress with that and has actually gotten Rosie to run with the keyboard open though it crashes and then reloads Rosie when you open the keyboard. He said he'd look into it more so follow his twitter for more info.
EDIT: Forgot to say. Hero ROM's are the only one with a messaging widget. You can download the Digital Clock widget from the market for a small price. I don't know the name of the widget exactly, just do a search for it in the theme section, it was mentioned in there a few times i believe.
There aren't any messaging widgets like the one on the Hero roms. You can download ANY widget to any rom though, just search the market for widgets and see what you find. Hero shouldn't freeze when you "slide up" whatever that means, if your talking about the keyboard when your on the home screen that is because they don't rotate, only in programs. If you mean some other type of slide then most likely your brother didn't do a proper linux-swap partition or it is to small. Anyway you need to just try the different roms and see what you like best, also some themes offer extra widgets and features but remember you can get any widget to any rom, just not the Hero/HTC Rosie widgets because HTC's stuff is closed source so we can't port it.
Ok thanks guys. So can I have the original and like non experimental link to hero. I use to search box and only find mods of it, and I guess I am just iffy on the mods. Anybody mind giving me the link to the newest and best quality ROM for Hero? Thanks In Advance

The modded ones are the best ones. The unmodded original is veryyyyy slow compared to the new ones. I would try JACHeroski 2.1 or MoDaCo 1.51 are both fast, stable choices.

All heros are technically "experimental". I haven't messed with the new Drizzy. I'm still putting JacHeroSki 2.1 throught it's paces. I can recommend it. There are people who like each of the different incarnations of hero.
What I suggest is going to the DEV section and read. Decide on your own. Hell, you can flash them all with switchrom. Have some fun and learn some cool stuff.
so good roms

Switchrom for the win. Seriously.. haha Yeah JACxRom is pretty decent. But as far as hero have you tried HERO2 - Freedom of choice? If not I think you'll be impressed. I flash FoC when it was first released and it wasn't anything to write home about but now? Dang.. it's fast. Wicked Fast. Try it out!

i wouldn't exactly call it "working" when you know how to add a few files and a theme and sign it.

Android 2.1 Desk clock kind of works.

Does the screen get turned off after a while?
I am a bit concerned letting the screen on all night long, thinking a cellphone screen is not made to be on for long period of time.
