Today I will be showing you how to go from this:
To this
Requirements:
1. Jailbroken iPod/iPhone
2. WinterBoard from Cydia
3. OpenSSH from Cydia
4. iGlassSol from Cydia for the sliders
5. (Optional) iFile from Cydia
6. An SSH client such as CyberDuck or WinSCP
Process:
1. Connect your iPod/iPhone to your computer. Go into Settings > Wi-Fi and select your Wi-Fi network. Copy your IP address. You will use it later.
2. Open your standard SSH client. Type in your IP Address for the hostname, “root” for the username and “alpine” for the password.
3. Hit Login.
4a. Create a folder on the desktop called Lockscreen. In that make an folder called Bundles. Inside that create another folder called com.apple.TelephonyUI.
4b. Inside Lockscreen create folder named UIImages.
5. Naviagte from /private/var/root to /private/var/stash/Themes/iGlassSol/Folders/TelephonyUI.framework/. Copy these files: bottombarknobgray.png, bottombarknobgreen.png, bottombarknobred.png. These are your sliders for unlocking, answering and turning off. Download them in the “com.apple.TelephonyUI” folder.
6. To get the clearness around the slider download this file and put it in the “com.apple.TelephonyUI” folder and download this file and put it in UIImages.
7. For a custom lockscreen background put a 320 x 480 PNG file in the Lockscreen folder and name it LockBackground.png.
8. (Optional) If you don’t want the slider text to show then copy this text:
”
“AWAY_LOCK_LABEL” = “”;
“POWER_DOWN_LOCK_LABEL” = “”;
“SETTING_LANGUAGE” = “”;
“SLIDE_TO_ANSWER” = “”;
“SLIDE_TO_CANCEL” = “Don’t slide the slider”;
“SMS_LOCK_LABEL” = “”;
“SYNC_IN_PROGRESS” = “Syncing… Unlock To Cancel”;
”
Put that text into a file and name it “SpringBoard.strings”. Create a folder inside the “Bundles” folder of the Lockscreen folder and name it “com.apple.springboard”. Then inside that folder create another one called “en.lproj”. Place the “StringBoard.strings” file in “en.lproj” folder.
8. Upload your Lockscreen folder into your Themes folder on your iPod/iPhone.
9. Go into WinterBoard and select the Lockscreen. And let it respring and you are done!

Put that text into a file and name it “SpringBoard.strings”.
what kind of file do i put the text in?
March 28th, 2010 at 8:04 AM
instead of using SSH, you can use the iPhone to USB cable and connect to PC or Mac etc…Then use DiskAid to access all data on iPhone or iPod Touch without needing WiFi or anything. Simple, but DiskAid is shareware and there is a 14 day trial…..
still, support them and buy if u want!

For step 6, right click the links and hit "save target as".
they are transparent images that's why you don't see anything when you click them

Step 8 if you want it to show type in
”
“AWAY_LOCK_LABEL” = “slide to unlock”;
“POWER_DOWN_LOCK_LABEL” = “slide to power off”;
“SETTING_LANGUAGE” = “”;
“SLIDE_TO_ANSWER” = “slide to answer”;
“SLIDE_TO_CANCEL” = “Don’t slide the slider”;
“SMS_LOCK_LABEL” = “”;
“SYNC_IN_PROGRESS” = “Syncing… Unlock To Cancel”;
”

into a notepad file, then save it as "all files" and rename it to springboard.strings
August 4th, 2010 at 5:27 AM
Just get istrings from cydia and use that to change the strings
