Changing iphone slider text.

I have been reading a lot of stuff on the web on how to customize your iphone slider text. Here is a simple method which I found.

Requirements.

Jailbroken iPhone.

You would need a iphone file reader like Diskaid, WinScp. I used Diskaid.

An XML editor (I used Liquid Studio which is free. Also, it can be edited using a text editor like notepad or MS Word.

I will give instructions using diskaid.

Open diskaid on your PC.(Diskaid should be installed in your PC)

Go to the following directory from the root

System/Library/CoreServices/SpringBoard.app/English.lproj

Copy the SpringBoard.strings to your PC. This is a binary file and needs to be converted into an xml file.

Use the following URL to convert the file into an xml. http://iappcat.com/plist/bin2xml

Once converted, open the file and search for slide to unlock. It should be something like this

slide to unlock

Replace the slide to unlock to whatever you want. For example My Iphone. The characters should be equal to whatever is already there or less.

Now save this file and re-submit it to the URL mentioned above. Once the file is converted save it to your PC and rename it to SpringBoard.strings. Copy this file back to your iphone directory System/Library/CoreServices/SpringBoard.app/English.lproj using diskaid or whatever tool you use.

Restart your iphone and there you go....You should see the change.
