Set default lock screen on VillainROM 3.4 - Hero, G2 Touch Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey XDA,
My question is, how to enable the default lock screen on VillainROM 3.4.
Like this one:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}

Or this one:
Please say to me if this is possible, and what file(s) i need for the process.
Thx for reading!

i also would like to know this

Navigate to the folder where adb is installed using cmd
1. adb remount
2. adb shell
3. su
4. cd /system/app
5. rm HtcLockScreen.apk
6. reboot
Let me know if this works

They are the correct commands yes, some newer 2.1 builds currently have a problem with this lock screen though so nandroid first.
Hopefully a fix for this should be out soon.
Edit: no need to "SU" in adb remounting is enough

ok thx guys!
i'll try this!

hmmm i updated my phone to Villian 5.03.
and it doesn't work..
u can delete htclockscreen.apk
after that it f*cks up the lockscreen..
there was a fix for that, i tryed that, but then the phone crashes..

The fix will need to be ported over to be compatible with our GSM heroes. I have sent the info to Nathan and he should include it in his next VillainRom

ok thx for that!!
and btw. am i the only one, with the problem that the alarm doesn't work!?!?
it just won't ring :S

Oh should have said.
HTC Clock (alarm clock part) is linked to HTC Lock Screen.
If you remove the lock screen you will need to install the vanilla clock app or get a 3rd party alarm app from the market.

yes yes, i already red that..
but it doesn't work, it just locks up my phone, when i apply the fix for the messed up lockscreen.
but the alarm also doesn't work after a clean install(full wipe+install rom)

When things don't work after a full wipe and reinstall I suggest you install a 1.5 rom that works (stock rooted or modaco) run that for a few hours then try to reinstall a 2.1 rom and hopefully all should be back to working.
If however you install a 1.5 and alarm still does not work then we need to find out what is causing it.

INSTALLATION
**Disclaimer**
I am not responsible for your phone, or anything that happens to it. Ever.
I have only tested this on my phone (stock rom,black skin installed, rooted)
Have a Nandroid backup
Have a Goldcard
Have recovery
Backup your original apk
First we must remove the cached wallpapers (using adb):
Code:
adb remount
adb shell
cd /data/misc/lockscreen
rm *
cd /system/customize/resource
rm htc_wallpaper*
exit
next push the apk using adb to /system/app/
Reboot , and your lock screen should be clear!
Nice work man : )
Great work bro!

[Q] How to revert back to CM7 stock keyboard?

Hi guys,
I tried flashing this keyboard to my CM7.0.3 ROM earlier today, unfortunately, it didn't really go too well:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=14018404#post14018404

"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Upon rebooting my Legend having flashed the zip file, all I see is continuous Force Closes for the keyboard. Specifically: process com.android.inputmethod.latin
This happens every 10 secs or so, and there is definitely no keyboard present either.
So the question is, how can I revert back to the 'stock' keyboard? Yes, I can restore my Nandroid backup however, does anyone have a link to the 'stock' keyboard that I can flash? Or any keyboard that will work??
Thanks!!
p.s. For what it's worth, the BlueBuzzer theme works great on the Legend.
First of all, have u tried changing keyboard by longpressing any textbox and selecting "Change input method". IF however u replaced the keyboard with the new one u'll have to use any of following methods:
method 1:
unzip the 7.0.3 rom and take the LatinIME.apk and push it to you /system/apps (make sure system is mounted and not read-only)
(If u need, i can add it as attachment)
EDIT: Apparently "libjni_latinime.so" is also modified, at least it's in the zip. Same as the apk, but push to /system/lib.
Method 2:
Download any other keyboard from market and Change Input method to the newly installed keyboard. Now it'll be hard to enter your searchquery without keyboard, so just use the market.android.com website and the install will be pushed to your device.
Method 3:
Well, it's maybe not the best way, but easy for sure, just reinstall 7.0.3 without clearing anything. So just "update" your rom, with the same version.
It'll put your keyboard back to how it should be.
If u wanna use this method i hope u didn't change too many system files ^^
Hope it works.
Grts,
BartAertgeerts
Thanks, I ended up restoring my Nandroid backup which was taken just before I attempted to flash the keyboard.

[Q] Screen locked.

Hello, I have a HP Touchpad 32GB running with Cyanogen Alpha3.
Yesterday i set up a locked home screen with a pin.
But if my TP locked the screen there is no field and no pattern to put in a pin?
How can I fix these problem.
I reflash alpha 3 but the problem is still there.
Thanks for help.
Have you got ADB set up for your touchpad?
No, do you have a how to do, for that ?
ADB Install help:
http://theunlockr.com/2009/10/06/how-to-set-up-adb-usb-drivers-for-android-devices/
How to unlock your device using ADB:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=971768
Then you can play with the lockscreen settings till you get the settings for CM7 right.
EDIT: The above links only allow you to unlock if you have the above problem, it won't help you fix this problem if this is a CM7 bug, but you can try.
But I am not sure is USB Debugging is on.
Or can I reset my TP to factory settings ?
If you didnt turn it off, its on by default, look for a bug in the notifications to verify it.
Reset, I'm not sure. When you reflash, it maintains the previous settings?
Side note: It is good to have ADB installed, it is mandatory for a device like TouchPad which needs developers loving
Ok, than I will try it after work,
But there is a symbol on my notification bar, look like a oval, a horizontal line and a horizontal wave line and a red 4 on the corner.

Can I make a backup with cwm, than reset to Factory.
Reboot and than restore with cwm. Or if I restore all with cwm than I have the same set up ?
With the same Problem ?
Or it is possible to restore only my apps ?
Backup apps + data using titanium backup after applying the above method. Don't back up restore with CWM cause you will still be locked out of your TouchPad like now
Now your priority is on getting into ur device to disable the lock or tweak the settings to perfection

But if my USB Debugging is off, than I have no chance with adb ?
Yup you will not be able to use.

[req] Please Test.

This is the ICS like Phone.apk.
I need a tester who has a Galaxy 5 to test this and report to me through PM.
Please.
Just flash it through CWM.
hi..
please 2 things: can you provide a screenshot of what it should like to?
and I think you should also provide a CWM file to revert to standard phone.apk (stock or Cyano roms)
Here is what is written at the original thread:
Many of you who have tested ICS, would have definetely liked the ICS dialer.
Well, Guess what? It's now available for CM7 too!!
Phone.Apk is attached.
Please Follow the Instructions well.
UPDATE: Users are having some problems using this. It is still in alpha mode. Still modding it to erase all problems. Support Developer or Tester would be nice. PM me if you would like to be involved. To revert back, use the phone.apk from this post : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=29069305&postcount=22. It can be installed using the terminal method or just copying it to system\app in Airplane Mod.
Installation Procedure:
Copy the file in the root directory on your sd card.
Rename the file to Phone.apk
turn on airplane mode.
Make sure ur system partition is set to R/W mode
open terminal from your phone.
type the following commands, one by one.
su
cp /sdcard/Phone.apk /system/app
chmod 644 /system/app/Phone.apk
reboot
Now, when you place a call or receive one, You will have the ics like dialer.
NOTE : You need to enable in-call touch UI. To enable, go to Settings > Call Settings > enable In-call touch UI.

Using adb, you can try running Settings and see what's going on. Are your apps really missing or is your launcher just screwed up?
Do you have any data on the device? I would consider just backing up everything and reflashing a stock ROM or doing a clean wipe.

I already tried that and all APPs are missing. There's nothing installed. and I don't have custom recovery to return to stock ROM. And can't install gapps because in recovery there's no section saying install zip or something like that. i tried and wrote gapps and rom on sd card and can't flash them.
Have you tried adb pushing the apk for google apps and then launching the app via homescreen icon or adb shell command?
This is the first time I've ever encountered all apps missing. Also since you don't have a custom recovery installed, you can always root and install it.

Thank you for your help but i think it's dead. I tried pushing apps and launching via shell but no deal. I installed play store but when i try to download something it crushes immediately. Thanks again...
