The new 2.1 lock screen horizontaly does not work for me if i use the
phone with one hand...
Can anyone help me?
Gr Kimmy

Install lockbot pro and use x10 screenlock.

if you try to move your hand in an arc like the old lockscreen while trying to open the new one, guess what, it will work

wow it works lol.

course it works lol, works on the iphone as well. once you have the lock slide selected you just have to move your finger across the screen, nowhere does it state it has to be in a straight line, thats just how the thing moves

You can't change it to work for left handers!

waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat lol thats ammaazziinnggggg

good trick

lol wow im surprised none of u knew about this

please delete

well, on froyo with CM this doesn't work, if I do an arc the slider gets back
check the video attached, only when I slide horizontally, is when screen gets unlocked

Works that way on mine too, on a 2.1 rom. Although on mine they're a bit small, visually, but hey, it works. Only downside is that it's not reversible, so that kinda sucks for lefties(no offense).

Wonder if there's a widget like this?

Curious to know, after looking at the demo video for Windows Phone 7 (or windows mobile 7 whatever), is there some sort of widget we could put on our screens, or has anyone heard of one, that can show off our recent calls? I think that would be handy indeed. I'll do some more searching but I didn't see anything yet, if I find something, I'll be sure to edit and update this post.
Thanks

to the OP all you have to do is hit "phone" on the rosie bar and it will bring up all recent calls.
I'd like a widget like this too.
yeah yeah yeah, it may seem stupid but let's put this into perspective....."dildroid"? Need I say more?
Anyway, yeah dude, seriously....would it have killed ya fingers to type out the extra letters?

Looks like the guy wants to copy something that was demo'd in a winmo7 phone.
I think it's a good idea, recent calls widget would be nice, along with any of the other "tiles" or widgets they have going on in the new winmo. One of the greatest parts of being an open OS is that if you like the idea that someone else has came up with, you can take that idea and run with it.

just looking down at a widget on the homescreen would be even easier than this method if it was available

im not sure but all i was getting at is that if you like the widget im sure a dev on here would have the know how to pull the .apk from GDE and make it a stand alone widget for any android system?

S2u2 on evo

Pretty self explainitory on that one. I loved the slide to unlock i had on my Touch Pro And Pro 2, Didn't Really think about having it on the Hero when i had that but i Think with the big screen Slide 2 Unlock would look so nice! Any Ideas, Apps Other then FLYSCREEN(HORRIBLE RES) I WOULD LIKE to get the actually slide to unlock orignal app on my evo. Any ideas suggestions??
Lock 2.0 is what I use. I bought the paid version as I wanted more options for themese.

So i like what i see with the trail version, BUt what settings are you able to change when you purchase the full version, I dont like the slide button, and the top curtain isnt showing, and those icons are at the bottom, do those disappear when purchased and can you change the slider button
honestly theres so many threads regarding windows mobile apps and i can say honestly...that theres better options with android. Lockbotpro ...check it out.

I tired lockbot the resolutions were poor, On everyone one of them, except the x10 swipe lock, The slide to unlock looked poorly put together But thanks for the suggest, Does have a good selection from the moment unlock, hero unlock, slide 2 unlock, but just didnt feel satisfied with it.
nevermind...
lockbot pro has been the best for me... gives you every lock option that we've seen for our android phones and the iphone like lock screen, best part is.. you can customize it on the fly from the app

Tilting SCreen

Is there any way to disable that annoyng tilting effect og the sense 3??? I don't know why but most of the time I turn on the phone the screen is rotated left or right.
yeah settings then display then auto rotate, turn that off

Maybe I made a wrong question. When you hold the phone on hand and you move it from left to right, objects on screen remain alligned with the floor. It's quite annoyng and it doesn't work as well....

The home screen tilts if I move the phone. I hate thing thing!
any chance of a vid or photo of this? I've never known anything like that before.
from what i gather, he's saying that the software image is staying aligned with the horizon when he moves his phone. so if he tilts his phone at 45 degrees, sense will still be in line with the horizon, where as you or I would need to tilt our heads at 45 degrees to see it aligned properly....get it?

two days ago i tested on the dhd a coocked rom, Rmix i think, that came with sense 3.0. It has the same thing, that I assume is a standard feature of the sense. I cannot believe you don't see it. Try to move the phone from left to right in the home screen: I can see the edge of the clock, in the meteo widget you see the moon or the sun in 3d. At a first sight it's amazing, but now, when i switch on the phone the screen is not aligned.....

Lockscreen Response FIX!

So I have been reading on all the "problems" that this device has, and I've stayed pretty quiet about all the griping over minor things. (coming from the Vibrant and the G2X makes me pretty resilient to "bugs".
Sadly no one ever really talked about how it is a software problem. Everyone wanted it to be hardware related even though the touchscreen works for every other app.
(hops off soapbox)
Here's the fix, it's quite simple.
1) go to HTC hub and download a new theme (mine was music lover)
2) apply the theme
3) reboot phone
4) pull the ring to unlock
5) go back to XDA and hit the thanks button
I've replaced mine so I don't have it right now.
Unresponsiveness is not just lockscreen issue. It was effecting every apps on mine. I couldn't type, get carousel effect etc. Does this solve all of these?

Give it a try....won't hurt ya one bit to change themes. When ya get your device back of course.

Looks like you didn't read carrefully As I said I've replaced mine so I don't have this issue on my new device. That means I can't test this.
I never had unresponsiveness in any other app. Maybe I just got a perfect Sensation... well almost perfect (s-on)
Mine is so damn responsive, sometimes when I scroll the application drawer a little bit it opens an application

I saw the 'unresonponsive' threads, and was somehwat amused, since my screen appears to behave normally...but for the heck of it, I tried the carousel, and could NOT get it to rotate fast AT ALL! Other regular nav/touches worked fine. I just tried this 'fix', and can now get fast rotation on carousel easily! It was worth clearing defaults (LancherPro) and playing with it to get this 'fix' working. Now, back to LPro!

I posted this on another thread but I noticed that if you swipe really fast on one screen, without moving between home screens, it will always spin.
Just swipe really fast.

Can you just apply one of the themes already on the phone? busted did not work, no thanks here. Just dloaded and installed music lover, no go. Who said the problem works in every other app? mine does not. Anywhere you try to swipe/scroll. home screens, contacts, pictures, LOCK RING, fruit ninja.. registers as a touch( a lot of touches) instead of a swipe. I dont think a software update will fix it. If it would then it should work when i restore phone to factory defaults, it does not, yet it worked fine at those same settings when it was new.

That is the problem! lol that is NON responsive. Swipes are not registering as swipes, instead registers as a tap. Thats why an app opens. I open an app almost every time i try to scroll through the app drawer. NOT how it should be.

Thank you for this.
Why you always gottqa be freaking negative? Even on the fre3vo thread you freaking out on people. I tested this on mine, 1 swipe and the carousel appears.

I have to agree this did make a difference in the 3D carousel spinning. I don't know about other issues as I have not had them yet.

Ok let me be positive and see if that helps. brb.. Nope, still no carousel. All i did was inform you that what you think is actually good, is in fact one of the issues. Our sensations should not be opening apps when swiping. My evo didnt, my N1 didnt, my iphone didnt, but the newest latest and greatest device does. I have a right to be negative. Sorry if i offended you.

shows us your Xperia 5 homescreens.

I'll start I guess.
Lockscreen. Home, left and right.
Redid my home and lock. Same ****.
Just new icons, and background mountain, lock wall is still likewise above, just with a background mountain so still fits.
I'll later today, remove the navigation bar all together. And going all gestures. For more seamless setup and controll. Just don't have any adb on my Macs and don't get it, as on Windows. Lol.
Edit** Added lockscreen and homewall.
It's no right, none did a setup yet, phone is on Monday a month old. ?? Come on all ?
I redo mine like at least ones a day ? can't show em all, just what I fall back to. Otherwise I'll be spamming ???
Wauuu really? Is this the community of Sony, 76 ppl locking, not one says, u suck, God knows what. I did not make a mistake, buying this, but the community is like non-existent

Sold both xm3 and Xperia 5, as I couldn't stand any of em.
How you been doing?
I disabled Ambient display on the Xperia 5. Seems to work much better. @ Android v9. I wonder once Android 10 is stable and fixes bugs in 10 will the new home button make things easier?

I thought that Sony's gesture actually works. But wasn't quite enough for me. And way of topic
And how better? My only real complaint was FP. And had 3 updates in 3 weaks, didn't fix, so I sold. The phone it self. Had no issue with. Besides. My year elder op6 preform better besides 21:9 :good:
Oh. Yeah. Sold to a company. For more than I gave. So no loss. I tried.
But let's hope. They'll fix stuff in @10, like systemwide dark mode :fingers-crossed:
I'ma fraid. Cellphone is not where Sony put their money.

What is that clock/weather widget, that's sharp
A new cell phone is just a bunch of radiation.
the Xperia 5 has an advantage over wider phones, but the top of the phone is too heavy and will tip over. Also, the bezel material is unlike the Xperia Z3, which was metallic and unique among Xperia flagships.
