Analock HD is a simple, clean lock screen mod. The lock screen displays the current time, date, day of the week, temperature and weather conditions. And, like Sublime Lock HD, what I love most about this lock screen mod is how easy it is to customize… no coding involved!! I have actually been using this lock screen for a while now and I decided it was time to pass it along! Below are the step-by-step instructions on how to install, activate and customize the Analock HD lock screen mod.

SwitcherPlus – Adds Multitasking Ability on Lock Screen
September 14, 2010 by
 |
Available In: Cydia |  |
Price: Free |
SwitcherPlus is a mod that adds the ability to use the multitasking dock from your lock screen. Once the app has been installed in Cydia, you are able to use the complete functionality of multitasking from your lock screen.
If you do not have a passcode set for your device, and you select an application from the multitasking dock while on the lock screen, it will automatically take you from the lock screen directly into that application. If you do have a passcode, and you select an application from the multitasking dock while on the lock screen, it will require you to enter your passcode and then will bring you directly into the application you selected.
I did notice that after you select an app from the multitasking dock (while on the lock screen), the passcode keyboard disappears pretty quickly. So, you will want to start typing in your passcode as soon as the keyboard appears or it will disappear and you will have to go back into multitasking and select your app again. Hopefully this will be fixed with an update. NOTE: This can actually be changed in the app’s settings. If you go into the Lock Screen Mode option and then the Dim after dismiss option… you can increase the time before the screen dims and thus the keyboard disappears.

Matte Battery 2.0 – Lock Screen Battery Mod
May 6, 2010 by
Matte Battery is a lock screen battery mod that changes the battery displayed while charging your iPhone or iPod touch from glossy to matte. The colors are still the same as the stock lock screen battery… green and red. I have seen this lock screen battery used in a few themes however, this gives you the ability to use the battery with any theme. I am currently using it with the Smoog theme.

Battery Color Themes

Price: Free |
This is a nice collection of different colored batteries for your lockscreen when charging. Most are pretty nice and the white is my favorite. It would probably look pretty nice on a white iPhone. The only downfall is the colors are listed in Spanish. So, you’ll either need to learn Spanish, change the names like I did with iFile, or check out the labeled screenshots below to pick your color.

Apple Magic Mouse Lockscreen and Slider
April 14, 2010 by
|
Available In: Cydia | |
Price: Free |
I was mostly looking at this mod for the slider but it also comes with a wallpaper. Unfortunately you can’t change the wallpaper unless you do a little hacking. I use an app from Cydia called iFile. This lets me browse the file system and make tweaks to themes and other files. I just went into the themes folder and found the Apple Magic Mouse Lockscreen folder. There was a file called LockBackground.png. I just renamed it to LockBackground.pngx. You could name it anything really, or delete it. Of course this is all activated in Winterboard once it’s in stalled.
BTW, the real Magic Mouse is pretty kewl. I’ve hacked mine to give me some more features which makes it even better. The downfall is the price, $69.00.
Apple Magic Mouse Lockscreen can be found in the ModMyi source.
Element Lockscreen Now Available in Cydia!

Available In: Cydia | |
Price: Free |
I don’t know about you guys but it seems like FOREVER since we wrote that the Element lockscreen concept was going to become reality. Well, it looks as though it has finally made it’s way into Cydia. A few days ago, I was perusing (yes, perusing) Cydia and to my astonishment what did I see… Element. At first I thought it was a theme or maybe some random look-a-like but after some further exploration I found it to be the real deal. However, I’m going to warn you right away, don’t get too excited this is definitely a first release.
The lockscreen was released in Cydia as a cydget. For those of you who do not know what Cydget is, it is “framework for managing lock screen plugins.” Which means, like most cydgets, it runs a little slow. Once you install the app (you will also want to install the Cydget ‘app’ if you do not already have it installed), you will then need to go into your stock Settings application under the Cydget option and tap on Element to activate it on your loackscreen. Once you have done that, you can go into your stock Settings and find the Element option where you will see some basic Setting for the Element lockscreen.

Available In: Cydia | |
Price: Free 14 day trial then $4.99 |
LockInfo, a feature-packed lock screen mod, was updated to version 1.1.8. The update includes a fix and a new “feature.” With the new version, the lock screen auto dim is reset when you touch the lock screen so the lock screen will no longer go dim while you are viewing LockInfo! I have actually been waiting for this exact “feature!” Below is the full change log.
Remember, LockInfo can be used in conjunction with Cydget and is available via the modmyi source.
1.1.8 Change log:
– Fixed an issue where preference updates were not being picker up in a timely fashion.
– LockInfo will not restart your dim timer when you touch the screen. This we using LockInfo from going blank when you are using LockInfo.

Cydgets – Time, Weather, Flashlight… [Updated]
November 16, 2009 by
|
Available In: Cydia | |
Price: Free |
Last week I wrote about Cydget, a “framework for managing lock screen plugins.” Over the week-end there were a few Cydgets (like Widgets for Cydget) released that are pretty decent.
The first is HTC Hero Cydget. This Cydget includes the current Time, Temperature and Weather Conditions. Once you have installed the Cydget, you will need to go into the stock Settings application under Cydget and activate it. I did find that this particular Cydget does not display immediately on the lock screen, there is a slight delay. (strike)Though, it does know your current time and weather info without having to edit a .plist which is nice. (/strike) [Read more…]

Clock Plugin for LockInfo adds the current Date, Time and Calendar into the LockInfo lock screen mod.
Once installed, the option is added into the stock Settings application under the LockInfo option.

Once you have turned on the Clock plugin the current day of the week, month, date and time will display on your lock screen. If you tap on the Clock bar on the lock screen, it will display the current month calendar.
A nice additional to an already sweet lock screen mod! You can get LockInfo and Clock Plugin for LockInfo via the modmyi source.

Cydget – Framework for Managing Lock Screen Plugins

Available In: Cydia | |
Price: Free |
Yesterday, Saurik released Cydget in Cydia. Cydget is a “framework for managing lock screen plugins.”
Cydget isn’t necessarily an application in itself instead it is more of a framework that allows other people to create lock screen plugins that work within Cydget. Allowing you to manage lock screen plugins without the use of WinterBoard. The plugins are managed in the stock Settings application where they can be activated/deactivated and reordered.
Once on the lock screen, you can rotate through the activated lock screen plugins by tapping the Home Button. [Read more…]
