Hi :)

I would like to know if there is any quick and dirty way to change the unlock screen on the N900, espeacially the backgroundimage. To be clear, i'm talking about this:

I like the theme how it is, but i would like to change the background image of the unlock screen without installing a Theme Maker or such software. Is it possible to rewrite this background image anywhere on my phone? This would be great :)

thx in advance, greetings from Germany

grüß dich ;)

mhm... i haven't read about this one yet... but i know that Lacedaemon (http://talk.maemo.org/member.php?u=26116) - the creator of the Matrix Theme - has managed to change the complete unlock screen.

maybe you could ask him ^^

EDIT:

or let inspire you by this site: http://talk.maemo.org/showthread.php?p=462433#post462433

many things can be found in /etc/ or /usr/share/ .
so if you have some freetime to kill... just look around... maybe you find something useful ;)

The lockscreen Backgrounds can be found here:

/usr/share/themes/ (alpha for the blue theme and beta for the orange theme) /backgrounds/lockslider.png

The lockscreen images are found in /usr/share/themes/themename/images/

It's six of them:

LockSliderLeft.png
LockSliderRight.png
LockSliderThumb.png

LockSliderTop.png

about the background image, it's in the backgrounds folder, as Diamorph said.
