[Q] WidgetLocker themes too small - Optimus One, P500, V General

I've tried quite a few WidgetLocker themes, but they all appear too small...I think it's because they're made for HDPI devices.
Is there any way I can resize them or something like that?

Long press on the sliders to resize them.

Try lowering the number of 'blocks' that appear on widgetlocker config. Try something like 4x4 or so.

Tried that, it just shows like it's changing the size of the grid that surrounds the slider, but the slider itself remains small, if you know what I mean..

That's where I got the sliders from, but they don't seem to work well. Can you please try out the MNML Gradient one? (First one) If it seems the right size on your phone, I'll know I've screwed up somewhere

I'm getting the same issue
Just that I'm running it on my Galaxy S running 4.0.3

I'm having the same issue. I'm on the HTC one X and i think the theme is just not made for such a high resolution device. The unlock circle is much too small. update sorely needed!

[Q] Dock icons or dock.

I don't have a picture but I saw guy who had a dock with words instead of icons I really liked the look. Does anyone know what it might have been?
Thanks.

It might have been me. I use the tall min icons found in the. Android themes forum. To apply them, select custom icon option in launcher pro and select which one you want to use.

Those are exactly it. I have downloaded them and I am currently creating an expanded list of icons in photoshop right now.
Thanks for all your assistance.

Replacement for Samsung's lock screen?

The stock lock screen is honestly pretty terrible. Laggy and pretty featureless. I've tried a few things from the Market, but as soon as I restart the phone I end up with two lock screens. Any leads?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using XDA App
WidgetLocker is the best replacement lockscreen app...IMHO. And tons of themes here on xda, I make WidgetLocker themes as well.
Try MILocker highly customizable man... Its based upon MIUI

I gave this a try. I like how it looks, but it doesn't seem to scale up properly on our devices. Were you able to get around that?

It seems to depends on the theme. Also, almost everything's in Chinese. I like it a lot after a few edits, now I just gotta get media controls on the lock screen.

Yes the.lock screen is pretty horrible. For now I have just disabled it completely and I think I'll keep it that way for a while pretty nice

what do you mean?
Mine works just fine.....if your talking about the actually locks, you can long press on the locks and resize them. you have to be in widget locker to do it, you can't just do it from the lock screen.
so go to app drawer and open widget locker, long press on lock, resize
Im not a huge fan of alot of stuff on my lock or home screen, so for me the great alternative lock for me was sign2unlock.

The good thing about Widgetlocker is that it can be tweaked to have as little (or as much) as someone wants.

Hey LitoNi, I really like what you have done on yours. Im trying to achieve a similar minimalistic style.
If its not too much trouble, Could you post all the widgets you used and how you got to change the icons?

okay umm
clock: Advanced Clock Widget
calendar: Simple Calendar Widget
calendar (on home screen): Minimalistic Text
the shortcuts: Simple Text
data counter: 3g watchdog (paid version)
battery: circle battery widget
Its really hard for me to explain to you how i achieved it. I really spent alot of time figuring out whats this and that. I would recommend you try to youtube it if possible. otherwise i would be writing an essay explaining how to use the app.
no worries, it took me hrs but im sure you can understand it without any issues

Use simple text and add a Shortcut, not a Widget, you can then move to the dock

lol thanks
the circle battery widget doesnt show how much time left till full charge or what. it just charges and the number goes up. ex. 45,46,47,48...
and you can just set what ever color you want depending on what you consider is "normal" "warning" "critical" "charging" and "charged"
the attached file shows what it looks like with the hollow circle and full circle

yea basically what he said.
add(press and hold on the homescreen) > shortcut > simple text
or
add > widget > actions > shortcut
it took me a while to figure out the coordinate so that the words lies ontop of the line.
i think x-coor=0 and y-coor=110. text size was 40.
and dont auto scale it ruins the word. ;l

How to guide...

I was looking for a "how to guide" on how to make themes for the app, but I did`nt come across any here.
So is there some sort of template or guide somewhere that lads like me can use in order to make some themes for the app, cheers.
there is a video guide m8 probably the easiest way to do it is to download a theme and get used to changing things around to how you want them ie change the wallpaper,icons etc

I'm having problems with themes, some of the widgets are not aligned properly, I try to do it manually but is not working, I just recently moved to SlimBean from Omega, no problems on Omega, I guess it's the DPI SlimBean uses, should I go to the next bigger DPI?

Chances are it's DPI issues, Themer was designed to work only on stock DPI as well as the supported resolution. We will consider changing this in the future though.
Any chance for a more advanced tutorial?
I am sure Themer got so much to offer that wasn't cleared on the previous tutorial

If you can make a .ttf file then yes just add the .ttf file you make to MyColorScreen-Themer-EverythingWidget-CustomFont
Then you will see any .ttf files you add in fonts on themer

Edit: I managed to get a temp badge up, also my theme seems to be up, but on the preview screen on MyColorScreen, the default screen is the left home screen, how do I get it to be the main or middle home?

To set screen 2 or any other long press home screen when widget's are locked and select +/- home screen there you will find 2 columns 1 for number of home screens and 1 to select which is the default home screen.
IE: for a 3 page theme and default screen as 2 it would look like in my screen shot

Hi, unfortunately not yet, as we still want to make Themer as stable as possible before we move onto anything else. For now we recommend trying out WidgetLocker, as then you can change the wallpaper, and add in widgets from the homescreen to match the theme
