Apple from release to release of its mobile operating system
ignores the possibility of customizing the appearance of the lock screen. But
this screen - the very first thing a user sees when you turn your device. And
often it is a shame that the standard means you can not change the appearance
of this part of the iOS.
For such cases, and there is a great thing called jailbreak.
Below, we suggest you use it to replace the boring lock screen iOS for a more
pleasant and stylish.
So, let's begin.
How to replace the
lock screen iPhone:
Step 1 : Download
the free app Winterboard. Any customized lock screen requires this package on
the device. You can download it from Cydia. Winterboard itself is a powerful
engine of themes, which, moreover, is also economical in terms of memory
consumption of the device (only if you have not started a lot of topics at
once). Designed by the creator of Cydia Jay Freeman «Saurik».
Step 2 : Download
the package from Cydia Lock screen Clock Hide (also free). This tweak hides the
standard lock screen clock and translucent background. You can configure this
tweak after installation in a standard application settings in the section
«tweaks».
Step 3 : Download
any file manager for Mac and Windows with support for SSH or iFile from Cydia.
We'll use one of these applications to change the image file and the location
for the weather.
Step 4 : This
step will be more complicated than the previous. The idea is that you should
have to open Cydia and download the required lock screen, as is usually done.
But it happened that a package we want LS Climacons in Cydia not. So you need
to download the files manually. There are two themes - light and dark: LS
Climacons Light (
link to download ) and LS Climacons Dark (
link to download
).
Step 5 : Once
you've got one or two files, run on your computer SSH-client and go to a
directory on the iPhone var / stash /
Themes. ***** folder and place here lock
screen just downloaded in the previous step .
Installing weather.
Step 1 : Go to LS
Climacons (light or dark), you just put in var / stash / Themes. ***** , and
then open the file in a text editor LockBackground.html using iFile. Or in any
text editor on your PC.
Here you will see a line var locale = "53202" -
this is the code of your location to read the weather. All you need - to change
the code on your own. To find out the code of the city and go to the site
weather.com , enter the city name in the search bar to find your code.
Installation help
Step 1 : In the
same location as the previously edited LockBackground.html, you'll see a few
pictures. One is called LockBackground.png, and this - the same background that
you see on the lock screen. By the way, the developers have included the same
location a few additional images - LockBackground2 and LockBackground3.
Step 2 : To
change the background on your own, create a computer image of size 640 × 1136
pixels, and then place it in a folder lock screen LS Climacons. Next, take out
LockBackground.png file to your computer (as a backup), and carried over only
own background file name it LockBackground.png.
Activation Tools
Step 1 : Now that
you have properly configured the weather and download the required background,
open Winterboard. Here, select the «Select Themes», then LS Climacons
(Light-Dark-or version, depending on what you downloaded). Make Respring (there
in Winterboard).
Step 2 : Wait for
a while iOS shell reboot and watch the beautiful new lock screen.
So, you did it! Set your own themes and lock screen on your
i-device on the practice can be a bit more complicated than in theory. But the
above instructions have to help you. If possible, explore the file system of
your device, just do everything step-by-step, moreover you will be cheerful.
Nice theme LS Climacons created by designer Finn Kraft.
Agree, the guy did a great job. Let's hope that it was not his latest creation,
and soon we will see a lot of beautiful designs for our iPhones.
