GPS Based HTML Lockscreen Weather Theme

[chg128]

Thanks for the fast reply, I appreciate it. I found your post but still a little confused. I have the "MyLocation.deb" but not sure how to install it, I've never used "ifile", I've been using Winscp. The first time I did it, I had to add the hacku repo to get "*******" then installed the app with "ifunbox". How do I install "MyLocation.deb"?

Thanks again...

search on youtube,it show you how to install deb file ! and oyu dont need that repo anymore now

Hi all, thanks to all of you for all your work on this, sorry I'm not doing much to help, blinkin work is taking over my life at the moment! Keep up the good work guys, I got to try & catch up with all of this sometime.

This works for non uuid enabling when the app is installed as a deb
Or if you use the Download to phone method and click the ipa, click zip viewer, click extract all files and then copy the MyLocation.app from the payload folder and place it in var/stash/Applications.xxxx
This is my modified js w/ the stock theme in the DL below.

This is crazyvivek's app packaged as a deb by Pathkiller. I had him check permissions after mine didn't work. He is a good dude and kindly helped out. I was waiting for him to say ok before I posted this.
Download this to your phone. Open MyLocation.zip using ifile and extract all. You will get MyLocation.deb
Click on that and hit install. It will install to var/stash/Applications.xxxx and ask you to respring.

Until crazyvivek gets it hosted on Cydia which I suggested this is a lot easier than the original method.
DO NOT install the deb over the Application if it is already in your phone. Remove the App first as well as the theme. Reboot and then install.

This is similar to the info I sent crazyvivek and let him know it's up to him to do with it what he will.

crazyvivek, I hope you don't mind me posting this but it's basically the same as what you posted in your download, just easier to use.

Thank you again for creating this. Truly a game changer!

Again all, I would have done this sooner but I was waiting on people for an ok. Believe me, I share all I do publicly unless it's made exclusively for a theme and then for obvious reasons I can't.

Anyway, I hope you all enjoy. And I truly hope crazyvivek is ok with this post.
This is such great work by him everyone should be using it.
As the gentleman Ian Nicoll suggested as well, crazyvivek needs a donation link.
This is revolutionary right here! Absolutely amazing job

If you grab EPHD by Barsoverbeats it will include an easy install and styled theme to match using the GPSWeather. Definitely worth checking out

Im trying to not screw up my phone, but I had installed MyLocation the old way. I went into private/var/mobile/Applications and deleted the folder containing MyLocation. Its the only way I could find to delete the app. I rebooted my phone and I still have the app, I can launch it with the icon and it still works fine. Now that I have this deb file, how do I make sure I'v completely removed the app before I reinstall it?

If I were you I would wait for crazyvivek to create a package then.
The deb gets installed by clicking it within the phone and using ifile

Subsequently you could pick up EPHD iOS5 and you will get a download for it along with a great theme and about 12 lockscreens widgets.
As Barsoverbeats repo is private we were able to run the deb as a Cydia install for testing but you could install it from there. The theme is donation though.

You mean uniaw5 GPS is not done yet?

I'm playing of course
Thank you Ian as well for all you do. Appreciated

I don't think it ever installed from Bars repo, I don't see it listed in Cydia. I don't see it even being available in Cydia, I have the beta repo from EPHD, is it in a different repo? Thanks for the help.

EPHDiOS5 it's new. Not the same repo as the original.
If you have this running, stay with what you have until you hear otherwise about another way to install

Thanks, I installed ifile and installed the app. I had to go back to the app and switch the "Sig. Change" off then back on and it works now....

Awesome glad your sorted dude

Hey big D... So this is where you've been hidding. I'll be checking your work out as soon as I can send the funds to Bars. I've seen coding like this used in YQL is that what it is?

[Nibrok]

So everything's great except for one thing. I'm using Zoo's mod and on my sb I can't seem to get rid of the (2) SBDockBG2x.png images, (the wood under my phone, mail, messages etc..) there showing up on the springboard even though I've deleted them. Anyone know why there showing? I've even tried rebooting the phone but no luck. The 2 images were in the \Bundles\com.apple.springboard folder...

EDIT: Problem solved. I just uninstalled and reinstalled the theme and it works....

[King_O_Hill]

If you have the .deb file, you can use the cydia auto install method. Just copy the .deb file into this folder "var/root/Media/Cydia/AutoInstall" and reboot your phone. if the "AuotInstall" folder is not there, just creat it.

Hi Jenn
Hope you been well

Honestly haven't gone that far in but it's looking like jquery and it just uses the data provided by internal location services
The weather info is basically the same as any other widget but also updates with location.
I'm already off for the night. Spending a little time with my girl.
Catch up with me on twit tomorrow.

[ruedi04]

what's going wrong with the weather picture?

[_Vansmak_]

Thought I'd check it out but don't show weather for me yes I followed the directions to a T

[ruedi04]

Edit: Problem solved. In GetLocation_Weather.js the right code is

var imgsrc = "<img id=\"theImg\" src=\"YahooWeatherIcons/" + code + iconfix + ".png\" width=\"267\" height=\"137\"/>";

This was wrong.

**** dont work

[KraXik]

**** dont work

It does. Your just doing it wrong. Are you using the original method on page one of this thread or Durbens updated method?


@Crazy - Perhaps you should edit page 1 now Crazy with Durbens links for any newbs trying this now.

Can we get this deb hosted on Cydia instead? I am not sure how to do it....

If you want to add the sunset/sunrise times then you might want to follow this

In GetLocation_Weather.js add these lines in the function writeResults(), I included the top line so you know where to place it

var SunSet = SunRiseSet.getAttribute("sunset");
SunSet = SunSet.split(' ')[0]
var sunsethr = SunSet.split(':')[0]*1+12 //the +12 is if you don't want am/pm time(default!)
var sunsetmin = SunSet.split(':')[1]

Next add this line, here I included the bottom line so you know where to put it, same function only further down.

$("#set").text(sunsethr + ":" + sunsetmin);
$("#weathertext").text(text);

Next you need to add a new css ID (#set) in the styles.css for the text properties, example is

#set{
position:absolute;
top:395px;
padding-left:250px;
text-shadow: -2px 2px 1px rgba(0, 0, 0, 1.0);
-webkit-text-fill-color: rgba(255, 255, 255, 0.9);
-webkit-text-stroke:0.5px rgba(255, 255, 255, 1.0);
font-size: 20px;
font-weight: bold;
font-family: TrebuchetMS-Bold;
text-align:left;
width:270px;
}

Finally you have to add a line in the LockBackground.html to enable the display of the sunset time, I included the bootom line so you know where to place it.

<div id="set"></div>
<div id="cityname"></div>

That is the sunset time done now to the same, but with different names for the sunrise, but do NOT include the "+12" in the first step as this would put your sunrise time 12 hours later!!!!
