However, I couldn't figure out how I can do the same for the "Phone" button coz I couldn't find one such <menuitem></menuitem> list for it.

Thanks, can I put my own icons to this directory or I need use the original icons from this directory ? (/usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/hildon/)

I'm not sure but there shouldn't be any problem as long as it's png file and make sure its not big or else it will make the menu look even worst. Better it's 48x48 resolution big.

Thanks but I'm sorry coz I think you got me wrong. I have no problem with that unlock screen. I'm talking about the one where I have to enter 5 digit pin and hit "Done". Thats the one which hurts bad.
