5 Way unlock screen

So I am starting to figure out how to edit the 5 way unlock screen. The only thing i am running into problems with is changing the sms icon to Google voice. This is what the code looks like for the sms app (i think it is anyway):

<Intent action="android.intent.action.MAIN" type="vnd.android-dir/mms-sms" category="android.intent.category.DEFAULT"/>

when i edited the browser to miren I entered the package and the class but i dont know how i would do that in this code, if someone could help me out that would be great.

Thanks.

I can't be the only one that uses Google Voice with Miui.
Nope, just the only one wanting to modify the lock screen to google voice it looks like.

Wish I could help though. I will be watching this thread.

Okay I have a fix, thanks to magiman7. Install the following apk from a user over on xda. When you use the unlock screen the first time it will prompt you to select a default for the SMS icon. This will reset when you reboot of course.

App made by Ayoforever from xda, by the way.

Code:
<Intent action="android.intent.action.VIEW" package="com.google.android.apps.googlevoice" class="com.google.android.apps.googlevoice.activity.conversationlist.ConversationListActivity"/>
You will get a blank screen though if it isn't already in memory.
Hopefully this will help set you on the right track though.

Yup thanks. I actually got this far but that blank screen drove me crazy. I can't lock it in memory because I already have fancy Widgets locked in.

Ok, I've got Google Voice to startup without it being in memory. Here's what I used for that:

Code:
<Intent action="android.intent.action.MAIN" package="com.google.android.apps.googlevoice" class="com.google.android.apps.googlevoice.SplashActivity"/>
However, the new problem is that it won't start if it's already in memory....
 
Actually that apk that I posted via URL actually worked better than changing the code. I am throwing in the towel on trying to figure this out.

droid, im hoping this will help you, I found it somewhere on xda forums (credits go to whoever did this)
HOW TO FIND A CLASS FOR THE APP YOU WANT (This is a how-to that I found somewhere

, I'm not sure who wrote it anymore. So CREDITS go to who ever wrote this


1. go on the market and download it (launcherpro)
2. Launch it (either using the home button or with home switcher, also available on the market)
3. add a shortcut to your home screen (either by long pressing the screen or with the menu key)
4. in the dropdown menu select activity
5. let it load up the list of your android activity (may take a while if, like me, you have like 150 apps =P)
6. search through the list for the app you wanna load with the lockscreen
7. select it and after you'll see another list that will pop out from under the name of the app, those are the activity
8. scroll through that second list for the action you want (in case of playerpro or other music app the right on is usually the first one
9. under the name of the action you'll see a thing that kinda looks like a very weird and inverted url, thats what you want.
10. (optional) you may click on it to create an actual shortcut on the launcherpro homescreen to test if you got the right path (if it opens the stuff you want
