Puzzle Piece Lock Screen? - Samsung Mesmerize

Ok.... Galaxy S N00B here. If I have a text message or a missed call or something, my lock screen is a puzzle piece.... If I do not, it is the Sweep Lock Screen... I would REALLY like to be able to have the Puzzle Lock Screen ALL the time. Is that possible? Oh yeah, I have the Showcase from Cellular South

They are working on porting over the ULTIMATE rom from the i9000, which includes the ability to have that lock screen. It'll also incorporate the extra power options such as download/recovery etc. Unfortunately at this point they are porting it for the mez but maybe you can be involved in the port to the showcase.

The good thing about porting is that the individual mods can be separated out and used individually. If I ever get it all working, it shouldn't be too hard to port the lock screens to the Showcase.

Awesome. but as much I use to be a rom flash addict, I would really just like to have the puzzle piece lock screen without a new ROM. I plan on sticking it out until the official froyo release from Cellular South because, I will be honest, I LOVE the Samsung Galaxy S UI for android. It knocks HTC out of the water for sure. But, there could be a way to "trick" the phone into thinking there is some kind of notification without there being one. IDK... I guess I need to put my big boy panties on and try developing on the Showcase because it is a WHOLE lot different than the Hero I am use to. haha

I really want to blow up the swipe and puzzle piece with a rocket launcher full of cats. Me want AOSP lock screen .

Our phone does not have to option to select the puzzle. However this is being worked on so we can have sbrizzens 5 lockscreen mod.

[Q] How to make the phone not suck...

I'm coming over to USCC from Verizon (and my Thunderbolt, which I liked, when I was near a charger) because I changed jobs and Verizon doesn't have service where I work. However, even without service, the Thunderbolt seems to be a better phone than this Mesmerize.
So, is it my phone, or do I need a custom ROM:
Bluetooth sucks - half the time it doesn't connect, sometimes it drops out, it pairs with devices but then won't use them.
Notification sounds are slow and choppy, as are ringtones and alarms
It locks up
Video playback is choppy to the point of being unusable
Now, I LOVE the screen - it's beautiful, and works well. These problems all cropped back up even after a clean wipe. I did use Launcher Pro instead of the samsung launcher, and got rid of live wallpaper. I used a task killer to see if that would help. Nope. Basically, I need to reboot the phone before I make a call. Is it my phone, is there a trick, do I need a custom rom?
I would suggest the Heinz 57 ROM. It includes a voodoo kernel that can be overclocked and undervolted for battery life and performance. I have had great luck with this combo. Aslo, welcome to the mesmerize. With the right ROM/Kernel combo it is an amazing phone.
Tap-a-Talked.
Frankly, it sounds like you either got a lemon or this is all user error. Because that's an odd rap sheet of issues to be having with a new phone.
OP is a ******. These phones rock.

My god someone document this, I don't think it'll ever happen again!
If it shipped with 2.2 it's probably normal to have issues, where 2.1 was a way more solid build. Either way, the issues you're reporting aren't common so you could try a custom ROM or a reflash of stock to see if you still have them, if so then you're phone is ****ed

i loaded it on my friend's inspire too. its very very clean that's my favorite part, the transitions are cool looking and the lock screen & notification pull down are nice, but after 20 minutes i got really annoyed at the UI. It resembles the iPhone UI a little too much.
I've never actually used an MIUI ROM before, but I have used some of the apps. The camera, music app, and the web browser are awesome... I can't wait for a full working MIUI ROM so I can try it out, however long that might be
transitions are nice @ lippstuh - - i dunno i got annoyed with it as well, but i know if i had it on my phone give me 20-30 minutes and it won't even look the same

In all seriousness about that, I tried merging of Cyanogenmods radio interface layer and i had data for about one minute and then I wasn't able to bring it back. I am not claiming to have a working solution since I am extremely new to developing and was just using newb ingenuity. The only problem that I ran in to AFTER the fact was that my dumb old phone wouldnt go back in to 4g, no matter which rom and radio I used lol! I <3 MIUI

Post Your Homescreen...

Dont know about anyone else on here, but wouldn't be surprised if at least a few of you get a lil crazy about your customization the way I certainly do.
There are other forums for other phones that have homescreen posting threads... doesn't seem to be one in the MT4Gs forum, and I just retooled my lockscreen and am super stoked on it right now so I figured I'd start one. =)
New lockscreen. Been using Widgetlocker for a long time now. Utilized the Tron slider theme, ClockQ for time, and a picture I cropped off of a Google image search.
Homescreen is Tron-inspired. I dig blue a whole lot more than teal, and am obsessed w/ Subarus, so I guess It's kind of a World Rally Tron type of theme in a way ha ha (utilizing ADW EX and "Neon Blue ADW Theme")

not a flame war starter, that's my opinion.
Age doesn't matter on an online forum
And you didn't directly ask for an opinion, if you'd restated the Q, then you'd have a different answer.
Anyways, it's cool man, no worries.
Next,
my opinion.
I completely agree with eollie,
also, it's just more stable. I'm sure you're aware with the GB stability flaws, like flight mode, ril fails at times, still not as fast as wanted.
ICS fixes a lot of those issues, and makes it more stable at bootup.
A lot of the appeal I think is the fact that Samsung denied us ICS. Makes people want it even more lol. Like you, I haven't really gotten what the big deal is but I could've missed something. I'd like to hear some opinions from those who have used both gb and ics and can give us the pros and cons (if there are any).
