Anyone else using LockInfo on the iPhone?

I just installed it (it's v3.0.2.8) and have it configured the way I like it except for one thing (the time and date circled in red):

Anyone know how to remove that? I think it's part of the "Clock" plugin. I'm only using the "Clock" plugin because it has a calendar too (also shown in this screenshot, below the time and date circled in red).

looks like you are running two clock plugins .. "lock weather" is the top one and that's the one you want to keep. disable any other clock plugin you are running and you'll be all set.

The Lock Weather Plugin will allow you to set visibility of the forecast, calendar, or both. You can configure it under Settings-Lockinfo-Plugins-Lock Weather-Detail ... Forecast/Calendar/Both. Depending on if you tap the right or left side of the lock weather bar on the lockscreen will determine what the dropdown will show

Yeah, Lock Weather allows you to show the calendar or weather forecast, but not simultaneously, that's why I have "Clock" enabled as well (so I can have a calendar visible at all times along with the weather).

The clock and weather shown by "Lock Weather" and calendar shown by "Clock". The problem is that "Clock" always has the time and date (circled in red) showing. It won't let me display just the calendar.

you seriously need the forecast AND the calendar displayed at the same time? It takes less than 2 seconds to switch between them.

Yes, I want both displayed at the same time. I don't care how long it takes to switch between the two.

Is there something else besides LockInfo. that will allow this?

have you actually tried looking at the lockinfo section in cydia? if you had, you'd see that there are plugins for clock (which you already have with calendar) and a separate weather plugin as well. Install that, get rid of lock weather and it should give you what you want.

I doubt it will give you exactly what you want, but maybe it's close enough

Yes, I've looked at the plugins for LockInfo and saw these. I like the layout I have above. I just don't want the time and date shown where they are in the red circle. Is there a plugin that will show just the calendar like it is in my pic.? Or are those plugins in Cydia the only ones available?

Also, after installing LockInfo and these plugins, the text color for the icons changed and the little red numbers that popup on some apps. that let you know how many new updates there, doesn't show up anymore:

In this pic., I had just opened Reeder and it had downloaded 80 or so new items. Before installing LockInfo and its plugins, it would show the number "80" in a little red circle on the Reeder icon. It doesn't do that now.

Also all the text (icon names, text on the status bar, etc.) is now gray instead of white.

Anyone know how to fix these issues?

Ok, fixed the grey text problem with an option in Winterboard.

The other issue with the little number status / update I fixed by restoring the phone and re-doing everything.

Contacted the developer of LockInfo and he's unwilling to create a standalone calendar plugin like I'm looking for.

Hopefully someone will create one though. I've seen other threads on other forums with similar requests for a standalone calendar plugin.

I wish iOS 5 will take care of these things natively. iPhone's lock screen has been nearly static since 2007.
