3. In arrays.xml find

Code:

Save and close it.

4. In same folder open styles.xml and find

Code:

---

<style name="Widget.Button.NumPadKey" parent="@style/Widget.Button">

---

It must be something like this

Code:

---

<style name="Widget.Button.NumPadKey" parent="@style/Widget.Button">
        <item name="textSize">34.0dip</item>
        <item name="textStyle">normal</item>
        <item name="textColor">#ffffffff</item>
        <item name="gravity">left|center</item>
        <item name="background">?selectableItemBackground</item>
        <item name="paddingLeft">20.0dip</item>
        <item name="paddingBottom">10.0dip</item>
        <item name="singleLine">true</item>
        <item name="fontFamily">sans-serif</item>
    </style>

---

Simply change the red line with this

Code:

---

<item name="gravity">center</item>

---

Code:

---

<item name="paddingLeft">0.0dip</item>

---

Remeber 20.0dip we changed to 0.0dip will use it later. [maybe it is different in your case whatever it is just remember it]
So that the whole code looks like this
Attachment 3098219
We just made the keys 1,2,3 etc in center

5. Now go to framework-res.apk\res\layout folder and open keyguard_pin_view.xml
Find this line

Code:

---

<ImageButton androidprv:id="@id/key_enter" androidprv:paddingRight="30.0dip" androidprv:layout_width="0.0px" androidprv:layout_height="fill_parent" androidprv:src="@drawable/sym_keyboard_return_holo" androidprv:layout_weight="1.0" androidprv:contentDescription="@string/keyboardview_keycode_enter"
style="@style/Widget.Button.NumPadKey" />

---

Since we changed the style of Widget.Button.NumPadKey to fix it for enter key we will add this in the above line.
Remember the 20.0dip we changed its placed here if something else in your case put that

Code:

---

androidprv:paddingLeft="20.0dip"

---

Now new line will look like this

Code:

---

<ImageButton androidprv:id="@id/key_enter" androidprv:paddingLeft="20.0dip" androidprv:paddingRight="30.0dip" androidprv:layout_width="0.0px" androidprv:layout_height="fill_parent" androidprv:src="@drawable/sym_keyboard_return_holo" androidprv:layout_weight="1.0" androidprv:contentDescription="@string/keyboardview_keycode_enter" style="@style/Widget.Button.NumPadKey" />

---

Since we made the keys in center then pin we enter is not above the 2 key so to make the pin in center find

Code:

---

<TextView androidprv:textAppearance="@style/TextAppearance.NumPadKey" androidprv:gravity="center" androidprv:id="@id/pinEntry" androidprv:background="@null" androidprv:paddingLeft="40.0dip" androidprv:layout_width="0.0dip" androidprv:layout_height="fill_parent" androidprv:cursorVisible="false" androidprv:singleLine="true" androidprv:editable="true" androidprv:layout_weight="1.0" androidprv:imeOptions="actionDone|flagForceAscii" androidprv:layout_marginStart="@dimen/keyguard_lockscreen_pin_margin_left" />

---

Add this in the above line

Code:

---

androidprv:paddingLeft="40.0dip"

---

Just double of 20.0dip
Now changed line will look like this

Code:

---

            <TextView androidprv:textAppearance="@style/TextAppearance.NumPadKey" androidprv:gravity="center" androidprv:id="@id/pinEntry" androidprv:background="@null" androidprv:paddingLeft="40.0dip" androidprv:layout_width="0.0dip" androidprv:layout_height="fill_parent" androidprv:cursorVisible="false" androidprv:singleLine="true" androidprv:editable="true" androidprv:layout_weight="1.0" androidprv:imeOptions="actionDone|flagForceAscii" androidprv:layout_marginStart="@dimen/keyguard_lockscreen_pin_margin_left" />

---
