[HowTo] HD Background in Slanted Lock in 4.2.1 - 4.3.2

[FloXxX!]

Hey After hours of trying I found a solution for how to set a user background in SlantedLock.
You probably know, that in the latest Versions of iOS there is no LockBackground.jpg anymore, there's another file instead. One solution was to link to "Lockbackgroundthumbanil.jpg" which is a low-resolution picture.

My method lets you set up a high-resolution picture.
At first you need three apps and anything (ifile, total commander + t-pod addon) to get access to your iPhone/iPod.
Slanted Lock of course, Typophone Weather, and the Typophone App from the Appstore.

Typophone from Appstore you need for changing the background picture, Typophone Weather is for being able to change the picture in the AppStore App and it's the destination where the LockBackground.jpg will be.

You go into your SlantedLock directory

private/var/stash/Themes.XXXXXX/SlantedLock.theme/

there you open the Private folder and then the css folder.
Open and Edit the SlantedLock.css
Search for the following code

background: url("/private/var/mobile/Library/SpringBoard/LockBackground.jpg")

and replace the the part in-between the brackets with the following url:

"../../../Typophone Weather.theme/LockBackground.jpg"

it should look like this now

background: url("../../../Typophone Weather.theme/LockBackground.jpg")

It will go three directories backwards and then locate the background in the Typophone Weather folder.

Then you go into the AppStore App of Typophone and change the Wallpaper, respring, et voilą, there's your background

After that changing your wallpaper is as easy as ABC

It's the best and only solution I know (after around 5 hours of research)
I hope you'll enjoy it If you like it, it would be great if you "Thanks" me


[NOTE] The other options in Typophone will not affect SlantedLock! [NOTE]





Deactivate the wallpaper, reactivate it to set another one.

Thank you for taking the time to post this!

Slanted lock, or whatever you've done there, is pretty ugly, though.

Why or what do you think is Ugly? The Background or slanted lock? BTW, slanted lock is Not by me, its just a pretty popular theme which has issues with the background on later firmwares
