The no. 1 reason for jailbreaking is unlimited customization options and there are hundreds of tweaks in Cydia to help you achieve an iPhone experience that matches your very own taste and personality. LockHTML 2 is the kind of jailbreak tweak that helps you with that, adding new customization features for the iOS Lock Screen and widgets menu.
Basically, LockHTML 2 is an utility jailbreak tweak that will add dynamic HTML widgets to the Lock Screen and gives you the option of hiding the clock as well as the “Slide to Unlock” label, the slider and even the camera grabber. The app also makes it possible for the time to be displayed in the Status Bar and keep you current with the status of the battery during charging.
The tweak also allows you to use the Lock Screen wallpaper as background instead of the JPEGifier. There’s also an option in the tweak’s Settings Menu that allows you to customize battery icon, hide it or increase and decrease its height. The customized features will be applied in the Lock Screen mode and do not require a respring of your device to be activated.
The utility jailbreak tweak even comes with a HTML widget of its one. LS Air is a weather widget that can be put directly on the Lock Screen. You can find the Settings menu for this weather app by navigating to /var/mobile/Library/LockHTML/theme/ and change the zipcode in the Settings file. The number of such third-party widgets is still shy, but it’s something that could gain more appeal as users become more and more interested in pushing the conventional limits of their iPhone experience.
LockHTML 2 is available in the ModMyi repo via the Cydia jailbreak store for $0.99. Version 2 was released just a few weeks ago so hurry up and rip the perks of a great utility jailbreak tweak.
