HTC Android Type LockScreen For iPhone: ICSLock Pro Cydia Tweak

Posted by Badri Tek on 07:17 with No comments
The Android is a brilliant OS in itself and so is the iOS. The respective lock screens of the two operating systems are just as different as their features, as in Android you have a grid type lock screen whereas iOS offers a slider to unlock the phone. Further manufacturers like HTC have their own patented lock screen pattern which are not present on the stock Android OS.

If you have used any Android HTC device, you must be familiar with the lock screen where one is supposed to drag a ring from the bottom of the screen to the center, in order to unlock the HTC device. Not only it is cool but unique as well.

Now the question is, would to like to apply a similar lock screen to your iPhone? If yes, then we have the perfect app or rather tweak for you. ICSLock Pro is a paid tweak ($0.99) available on Cydia that replaces the stock slide to unlock lock screen of your iDevice with an HTC Android one. After you have installed the tweak, look for its icon on the home screen (the second image below).

Open the icon and you will be presented with the settings of the tweak. On the top you have Active and Dock along with their respective toggles on the right side. So first of all you need to make the tweak Active by tapping on the toggle, while the dock can be enabled at your own choice.

Just below these you have the Ring Style and and Bubble Style options from where you can pick the lock screen ring (image on the right – below) and bubble of your choice (image on the left – below).

As you can see there are App 1, App 2, App 3 and App 4 options as well. Here you can choose four different applications of your choice to be displayed on the lock screen. These applications can be opened right from the lock screen simply by dragging and leaving the ring on any one of them.

Lastly, after selecting the apps and the ring & bubble style, press the SAVE button present on the top right corner of ICSLock Pro settings page. The app will ask for your confirmation and after it resprings your iPhone, you will be glad to see your new lock screen.

The app is worth its price, and does not slow down your phone. So from my experience you will not regret buying this app.

NOTE: The lock screen image does not show the CLOCK at the top. This is not a part of the tweak but if you want to hide the lock screen clock, you may download a free tweak called Lockscreen Clock Hide.
