even after update, the original screen-lock remained laggy and inaccurate sometimes. is there some more screen-lock apps that can be used on X10?

Have you checked the market at all. Lots of options. Goto seems to be popular.
Lock screen
Sorry for hijack but My lock screen is too sensitive and my phone is always unlocking in my pocket and then making calls, sending texts and changing things around, its starting to pi** me off a bit.
I need a proper lockscreen that needs a password or something to enable phone.
I bought app protector from the market but that just messes with the whole phone big time, disabled.
Just activate the additional pattern lock under android settings --> security. your phone shouldn't be able to draw a pattern specified by you

I would like to remove the se lock screen as well and replace it with stock android. I tried many apps in the market but none of them work properly. So in my search I was looking to disable it manually. Interestingly enough when I removed the phone.apk it removed the lock as well. I couldn't use the phone but at least no lockscreen . Anyways i think modifying the phone.apk is what needs to happen unfortunately i don't have the knowledge to do this yet...

Ashame lockbot does not work on the X10. I have problems with the lock as well. Sometimes i miss calls because it hangs In de top, very annoying.
Lock 2.0 from market Works for x10 and is great, a bit Luke s2u2. Full version Allied you to change settings to your likings.
i use adw launcher, dont change your settings in adw after installing lock2 otherwise the default lockscreen Comes back for some reason and you end up with a Double lockscreen. Further it is the best lock screen on the market for our phone. Hope this will help.

I'm a huge fan of goto but sometimes a lil bit laggy
I've tried all sorts of lockscreens and apps that disable the stock lockscreen. I still always end up with the stock lockscreen coming back, so I have to unlock stock and whatever lockscreen app I had installed. Some of them didn't disable the stock at all, some did but randomly the stock would come back after some time

No real solution im afraid, you can try changing your task killer to only kill apps every couple of hours and ignore the GOTO application, or uninstall it completely, this helps.
I now use Lockbot pro which i think looks better than GOTO + its got 100's of themes, but i sometimes see the SE lock screen, hardly ever, but still seen it, whereas with GOTO i never saw it.

Unfortunatly GOTO is a paid app so its against forum rules to post the .apk.
Google is your friend, or pay for it.
The only way to change the default lock screen is by tampering with the /system files. Don't think anyone has been successful in revamping it. The only progress I've seen was the arrow being changed to a different image.

I think you have set Advanced Task Killer to "kill when screen off". This setting turns on the screen when you use goto, it's some kind of bug. Just use a setting like "kill every 30 min" or something like that and goto will work fine.
btw. you should read the topics about how pointless Task Killers are on Android. They're often even making things like battery life and smoothness of the device worse. Here's one of the many topics about it on the forum
I have no lock installed but i still get the SE's lock screen and Lockbot is not there most of the time ...
Well, sometime Lockbot appears after i unlock the SE one ... which is stupid.

I loved to use adw in the past but recently the updates made it unusable for me... so i am looking for a replacement...
Maybe i should just stick to an old version of adw (i unfortunatly didnt backup mine before updating)
So what are you guys using?
Ps: and please dont tell me to google or "this thread already exists" coz i want new information
Yea, ADW has started crashing on ocassions, its really annoying. Dont know what alternative is good like this.
ADW ftw! Never had an issue with it.
I for one am interested in trying the LG Optimus launcher once we get Eclair. Im an organization freak so the customizable app drawer appeals to me. Also looking forward to trying Launcher Pro Plus with Eclair. Currently using ADW and have no problems.

Have you not tried the "group" feature in ADW? Open the app drawer and press the menu button - choose group - New catalog, name it, choose apps to be in it, then when you go into the app drawer you just press the menu button and choose your new group.
I had been using Slidescreen pro since last 3 weeks and with facebook and Google reader integration working with it,i have laid Timescape and the old ADW launcher to rest in peace.
I can assure you would get a different experience once you start using it........

can you do me a favor and try to press and hold the home key to switch between recent apps and then press the home key again?
everytime i do this i have to set it as default home again - this is way more annoying then the little crashes i experience all the time and for me it makes adw totally useless now ...

try LIVEHOME which is also a home screen replacement, nearly the same as adw but has a few more features, one of them is transitions, you can flick through you home screens like pages in a book (love it). Try it out.

ok after playing around a lot with settings i have to apologize to my beloved adw launcher
ok it still crashes a lot in the newer version but my main problem - that it cant remember the default home - is on the stock android homescreen too so i guess somehow my software is ****ed up *cry* ...
guess i have to reflash (god damnit this **** is more buggy then windows 95)
edit: btw livehome looks really nice ... i like that you can change the icons in the drawer
Update: after reinstall and some hours later i got crashes again and that home-button problem too.
Now i set only the adw-homescreen to "dont auto-rotate" and i have no problems now.

The power button on my N1 has been giving me fits, and given the number of people I've read about with "dead" power buttons, I think mine is going out so I'm trying to preserve it as long as possible.
I enabled trackball wake (using CM6) which takes care of 1/2 the equation, but I need a good lockscreen app (just something to make the phone go to sleep). I found one in the market called Lock Screen Enabler, but it's not a "true" lockscreen app and it's very buggy, causing all sorts of problems for me.
I've been a web developer for 8 years and recently got into Android development (which I hope to be doing full-time soon), so I thought I'd just code a quick app for personal use in 5 minutes.
The problem, however, is that the DEVICE_POWER permission is needed in order to call goToSleep() and from what I've read so far from other online posts, this permission is only granted to native system applications.
Since my phone is rooted, I even tried granting my application SU privileges, but that doesnt seem to work either.
So, my question boils down to how do I grant my application DEVICE_POWER permission? I figure if anyone out there knows the answer, it's going to be someone on XDA as this place is full of geniuses. Thanks in advance!!
UPDATE: I've attached the finished app. Made this for personal use but if anyone wants to use it they are welcome to. My only gripe about it right now is the "screen flicker" that happens when you launch it because it's trying to launch an app that immediately locks the screen and finishes itself. If I can figure out how to get the app to launch in a smaller window maybe I can minimize the size to reduce the screen flicker. But for now, this works and I can set it to launch when I click the clock on Fancy Widget, so I'm happy. Thanks again to everyone who offered answers to my questions. Just another reason why I love the Android development community!!

It seems that you'll need to add the application as a device administrator. There seems to be some decent information half way down this page under Device policy manager: Link.
I'd be interested in using this application as I can't change the icon of my previously mentioned widget.

I will probably still go ahead and create one. I like how with FancyWidget you can set it so clicking the clock will launch an app. Unfortunately it doesn't work with widgets, so I need an extra icon on my home screen just to lock it. If you have an icon you'd like me to use, feel free to share and I'll put it in
And thx for the info!!
I would be happy with any icon to be honest, I just don't like the lock screen widget one Good luck bud

Good call. Thx. However, I also came up with a work-around for ppl who are just as lazy as myself. There are 2 icons in the launcher. The first will lock the screen (once you enable the app as a device admin). The second will disable the app as a device admin, allowing you to uninstall at your will.
I really intended for this app to be for personal use, but if anyone wants it I'll put it up here for you to download. If you'd rather I remove the second launcher icon and just let you to disable it through Security settings, I will also do this (as really, I don't plan on uninstalling any time soon so this is fine for myself).
Thanks to everyone who helped out!!!

Great, works perfect on MIUI 0.9.30
Does the job perfectly! I especially like how it runs as an app so I can change the icon
You're a lifesaver, or should I say power button saver
Thanks so much.
I tried to develop something similar before but got stuck. Saved me some time!
Thanks for creating such useful app for my N1. My power bt is fine, but I would like to preserve it to powering up/down the phone.
BTW, I also downloaded Lock Screen Widget to test it out. Is it possible that you can make your app to shut off the screen smoother, like LSW? I like it you set it up as an app, which is super useful for me set up as a gesture swipe on my LauncherPro dock icons.
Thanks again and keep up your good work!
Thanks again, your app is really great. But could you add a option to map it to the search button (long press) please?
Thank you!
Missed your Wrist Watch? Now you have a new clock design and fancy buttons and new Font!
As my gift to XDA members, this app is free for limited time. If you want to support me buy it on market -->
***Icons in "add alarm" have same color as the watch, i just didnt uploaded pics for those

It only takes 1 sec to click on "Thanks button".
Dear devs, plz do not add the clock to your roms. Thank you.
Credit: 4 Menu buttons are from Miuitheme/Glowbuster theme.
Thanks for you great efforts.
NOTES: App should work for most roms, some devices running gingerbread might have issues. If app finds enough fans, gingerbread version will also be added.
Instructions:
1) Clean cache in your stock Clock app and remove the old widget.
2)rebooting not necessary but recommended.
3)Copy it to your sdcard and install it with your favorite installer
4) Enjoy!

Hey,
Great looking app, can't wait to try it out.
Just installed it to my Desire HD (stock rom, 1.72 firmware) via adb and whenever I try to add the widget to my home screen, it tells me "no more room on this homescreen". This is with LauncherPRO.
On restart of my phone I also got a message saying that the process had crashed and had to force close. (app loads fine however, just not able to put the widget on)
Any suggestions?
I just tried it on my galaxy s it says no enough romm in this page in both launcher pro and touchwiz.
When i open the app it force close and keep doing the same.
I really want this watch but no luck.

Hey Adam, I've been toying around with the launcher pro settings, just found, your widget uses a 5x5 layout currently which may be why many people are having issues not being able to add this to a home screen since the default is 4x4.
Any chance of a 4x4 version?

Hey all, this mod is for those who are having launcher redraws on GB. This was an issue since GB was released. For those who don't know, a redraw is, simply put, when your launcher's icons all disappear but reload after a few seconds.
Here's what you do:
1) Get your launcher moved into /system/app. You should do this from a clean flash (edit the ROM.zip, put it in, and rezip the file). You could try to manually push this, but I don't know how that'll work. You could also try to convert it into a system app by using Titanium Backup PAID (thank you shawnshine for this one).
To get the apk for your launcher, you should uninstall it and reinstall it. Once you reinstall your launcher, go to /cache and look for downloadfile.apk. That's the app you just recently downloaded (in this case, it's your launcher). Save that downloadfile.apk, rename it to whatever you want, and move it into /system/app whenever you flash a new ROM.
2) Edit the build.prop for your ROM. Use Notepad++ and add this line at the bottom, without quotes: "ro.HOME_APP_ADJ=1" Save the changes to your build.prop. You can manually push this and this seems to work as well.
This thread is really made so you guys could get the edited build.prop and push them yourselves. I'm including only the most recent GB ROMs.
3) Flash your ROM and enjoy less redraws. If you choose to manually push it, wipe your dalvik cache and fix permissions.
I take NO credit for any of this. jager555 was the one who mentioned #1. AntonX is the one who mentioned #2. Of course, all the build.props that have been edited belong to the respective developers who tweaked it and such.
If the developers have a problem with me posting their build.props here, please let me know, and I'll remove it.
UPDATE: Here's a short explanation of why this thread died down. When 2.3.6 was just released, I tried using this mod again to fix the build.props for all ROMs. Unfortunately, it seemed to be ineffective, so I dropped this completely. However, icy56 recently informed me that this still works on 2.3.6 (at least the newest ROMs), so I decided to pick this up again!
Below are the three most commonly used ROMs on this forum atm (Valhalla Black Edition, ICBINB 2.3.7 v2, and AOSP Style X). For those of you who haven't made the move yet, I kept the older ROMs in Older ROMs.zip.
Let me know how this works for all of you! I know it definitely made a difference on LauncherPro and GO Launcher EX.
Sick!! Thanks works great it was def an annoying issue.. I just moved the apk in root explorer and reinstalled into system app

hey just wanted to say i can attest that these settings do lessen the withdraws.
For launcherpro users, settings that have completely stopped withdraws for me are setting memory usage to low, not checking "prevent FCs", and checking "keep in memory"
EDIT: Forget this post. It was another issue.
Wouldn't using the "convert to system app" function in Titanium Backup Pro for your preferred launcher do the same thing?
I pushed it and didn't lose settings.. like I said I moved adw from data app to system app and then immediately clicked install and it reinstalled successfully
The launcher will fc if you hit home without reinstalling in system app

The only reason why I don't want to set the memory usage to "low" is because it makes my previews lag with 7 screens. Also, I've been reading that we should keep the memory usage as "high" instead.

hey guys. sorry im taking so long with my promised tutorial/noob guide. i have program reviews at work this week (which i completely forgot about) and it is killing me. i will get it done over the weekend.
I'm using beautiful sgs4g and my adw launcher was already in system apps and my phone redraws really badly, mainly after I use Facebook, hanging with friends, and browsing the Web

I put in the Beautiful SGS4G modded build.prop. Try manually pushing that into /system. Go into CWM, wipe your dalvik cache and fix permissions. Let your phone sit for 10-15 minutes afterwards to let the dalvik cache rebuild.
Keep in mind that wiping the dalvik cache and fixing permissions are optional, but it would be safer to do that.
Okay so I don't know where this came from cuz I didn't download any apps recently but this stupid lockscreen started popping up and it's killing my cpu. Can anyone tell me what app it's from so I can disable it?

wait a minute, then just reboot your device into safemod and check your lockscreen still shows that crappy page? i bet that lockscreen thingy is from one of the 3rd party apps youve had insttaled on your phone atm. :silly:

That's probably from 360 security or cleanmaster, before you say it, I understand that when you first installed 360 or Cleanmaster, it didn't change your lockscreen, but it may have updated the app and the lockscreen was part of the updated app. Remove 360 security and Cleanmaster anyway because "security" apps are all useless junk anyway, viruses don't exist in android the way that the app makers would have you believe. These crappy security apps and optimizers are all junk that only drain your battery and slow the device down, they are not actually beneficial, they do more harm than good. BTW, when you're on the web and you get pages that say you have a virus and prompts to install one of these security apps, you don't actually have a virus, they just want you to install their free app so they can make money on the ads that come with them.
You have several "security" apps and you don't really "need" any of them. Android works by permissions, nothing can attack or invade your device unless you give it permission to, whether you realize it or not (such as clicking links or opening MMS pics or opening email attachments). Being a wise user and only opening things you know are safe is all you really need.
