I have a request...
A rotary lock screen for the Virtuous 2.7 ROM, without the media player buttons at the bottom.
Thanks!
Have you looked at widgetlocker?
It's in the market and the latest version has a rotary locker option.
Gadget!

It's on ROM Manager under virtuous. It should have an option for with and without the media controls.

flyscreen has a calendar widget? i think
what about using Widget Locker?
not smooth as i want. sometimes u can still see original lock screen :<
widgetlocker with smoothcalender widget (Y)
I skipped the installation of widgetlocker because it asked for permission to use the phone... it seems weird... What phone calls should make such an application?
Any other app does the same?
tnx

All apps that support older Android devices older than 1.6 automatically have this permission, and even those not meant for devices that old often still have it, usually because developers didn't know or were lazy - here's more information

Because you can add shortcuts to the screen to make calls I believe. The app itself obviously isn't making any calls.
WidgetLocker + Android Agenda Widget is my favorite.

yeah this is what i'd do also.
Another vote for Widget Locker. I use that with Pure Calendar widget to get my appointments on the lock screen.
can i use WL for my mytouch3g andriod 1.6?i dont want to root my phone,.
You don't need to be rooted to run WidgetLocker. I'm using it on an unrooted Evo with the pure calendar agenda widget.
A new widget came out called calendr that is pretty sweet. On the clean though if you like that type of thing.

It is a sense thing, but on any 2.2 Sense rom you can remove the HTCLockscreen and the original one will appear in its place. It works, but you can't use it for controlling Sense applications (music, calendar, sense alarm clock).

You have a couple options. If you have EStrongs file explorer and root and read/write turned on go to /system/app/ and delete htclockscreen.apk. or you can flash the attached file. this removes the HTC Sense lockscreen and just leaves the vanilla. If you use sense apps like alarm they wont work properly so you should download an alternative from the market like open alarm or AlarmKlock

Actually the alarm will work as long as you use the asop clock to set alarms...
Just wondering if there still isn't anyway to use the vanilla lock screen to answer calls yet?
oh i know i can just remove the apk, but oh god i hate the Vanilla lock screen... blah yuck.
ok first thing you'll say is the iphone style is nearly the same.
nope, it isnt is my answer.
You can also use widget locker on the market. it has an option for iPhone style screen unlocker.

Am I missing something or does the car dock app not integrate with Google music or Pandora? I don't use tunein or store music on my phone directly so this app loses appeal for me. Any ideas?

I think there was a thread earlier today about this to. Im in the same boat but I use spotify. As far as I can tell theres no way to change the icons.
It's a shame that it cant be customized. I'd like to add Spotify and an app that detects speed cameras. I guess i will need to switch to the old car app that was abandoned by google.

Its functional, but doesnt look that nice imo. Too bad there are no skins.
It's ugly for sure but very customizable.

Anyone figure out how to use Pandora for the car dock app?
since i'm on CM i'm using the original google car home. it can be customized fairly well. not sure if you can disable the htc version and use that one or not.

the original car home doesn't have ICS support, has CM taken it and run with it?
I've been using Car Home Ultra for the last few days and while it works and you can add custom app shortcuts, it's really ugly. It's the equivalent of a Geocities website with blinking text and animated GIFs.
If I knew anything about creating an Android app and I had the time I could make some decent spare cash building a beautiful car app.
I found the Google one on XDA http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1569027
Install both APK's works fine. Why HTC didn't allow there's to be customizable is beyond me.

(i see you found it) I just install the apk and have tasker (best app ever) launch it when it docks.
Does anyone know how to make the dialer go into landscape like it does in htc car mode?
You can use Rotation Locker from the play store, Gunny. Long press the Auto option to get the home screen and dialer to rotate.

Bit of a late reply but I've only started using the car app and encountered the same problem.
The solution is to go into the music app that comes with the phone. Here you'll see a couple of music related apps like tunein radio and soundhound. Click on the options icon up the top right and select 'add shortcut'. Add all the apps you want (pandora, spotify, music players).
Now when you enter the car mode the last app you added will appear on the bottom right. You can access all the media shortcuts you added by scrolling to the right twice.
Pressing the home button from any screen will take you back into the original screen so you can alter your music even when in navigation.
Hope this helps anyone using the car mode app.
No luck with that, either. TuneIn is always there.

Maybe it doesn't recognise the app your using as a music app?? I did it with playerpro and it does appear as the bottom right icon automatically.
What happens if you scroll to the right twice from the car mode homescreen.
One scroll to the right takes me to the default music player and the second scroll takes me into all the shortcuts I added using the music app.
I tested this with a random, non-music related app and it didn't appear on the car mode homescreen but did still appear as an icon when I scrolled right twice.
You should be able to swipe to the right twice off of the main Car Home screen, and that should give you all of the shortcuts that are in the HTC Music app. The bottom right icon on the main screen should then reflect the last app you used.

Yeah just to confirm, even if its not a music app it will still appear in the bottom right if that was the last of you shortcuts to be opened.
I have been searching the Google/XDA world for an app or mod that would allow me to control the music play at the moment. That's my favorite hing about iOS. In the lock screen you can control Pandora, MOG, or iPod.
The notification bar is accessible from within almost any app so it would be ideal to have global controls there. If there is anything like this please feel free to chime in.

I'm also looking for the same thing. I have a jailbroken app on iOS called JukeBox that let's me have a music widget and it controls any app playing music and shows artwork pretty cool.
Google Music?
Cm9 lets you add music controls to the notification panel.

Stock 4.0.4 also lets you pause/play and skip Google Play Music from the notification panel.. so, I'm not sure what more the OP is really wanting, unless you want a miniature version of Play Music to show up or something like that. The dev of the respective app (Pandora, etc) would have to support controls for their app from within the notification panel.
Miui Music and Playerpro both have notification music control too.
I use Pandora a lot and Mog. Google Play music is nice but I prefer MOG. I just wanted to know if there android could possible do what iOS does.
Sure I could go back to my iPhone but I enjoy Android. I was just curious if the option existed anywhere.
Cm9 does allow me to add those widgets, thanks foe the reminder. I will try that out...any suggestions for my first cm9 flash?

Another option is to use the MIUI rom; its idea is the same as iOS, any music app can be controlled from lockscreen controls..

Go back to your iPhone. That's the best thing you can do!

Most custom roms have this built in now. Google.music has it and so does poweramp. Try em out!

I think I know what you are referring to. I too came from IOS and that is what I liked most. No matter what music player I was using I could control the music (pause, next, previous) from the lock screen. The default lock screen does not offer this, most custom lock screens do not either. However the AOSP lockscreen will, and so does MiLocker (provided the theme has music control built in). MiLocker should work with any ROM, the AOSP lockscreen may or may not depending on your ROM. If you need help let me know. :good:
Also many music players do have controls in the notification pull down. Grooveshark is the only music app that I use that does not give me controls in the notification pulldown. Hope this helps.
Does anyone know a theme or add on I can install that has this feature?
I am currently on Clean Rom.

You need to be using either the aosp or a secure lockscreen. It doesn't work on the touchwiz lockscreen.

Ok great. This is what I was asking. If I could use the controls without having a secure lock on my screen.
I am on a touchwiz rom. I see a theme that has an aosp lock screen. I'm guessing that will work.
Edit: flashed a theme with aosp lockscreen and it worked. Exactly what I have been looking for. Thanks for the help!
