Is it possible instead of having the unlock pattern having a passcode popup right after you unlock the phone as the pattern unlock is kindah annoying and tacky in my OWN eyes .

ooops didn't mean to post in the wrong forums thanks for that but it wasn't exactly what i was looking for i didn't know how to really word it maybe an example you know when you unlock the iphone it pops up with a passcode to then get into the homescreen i was trying to look for something like that or maybe how to edit my own slider so i can make it do this

I searched forums but never found a direct answer
Is this possible? I hope I got a really awesome hi def slider lock but the menu lock just adds on I really want to remove the screen "press menu to unlock" lock
Short answer: no.
Also 2 threads on the front page about the same thing!

O Am sorry i used search never looked where...
So its not possible or no one has been able to yet?
in theory if it hasn't been done yet we assume that it can't be done. but also in theory if you remove the keyguard xml from the jf build then you resign and reflash it should get rid of that screen. but don't take my word for it and brick your phone. i've been known to brick a few myself
LOL was searching it for (seriusly!) for hours... I downloaded also a slide to unlock but will remove it because it's useless (it works great but i have to click menu afterwards).
Redirect your comments on this matter to this thread
Thread closed
ive installed this and it seems to work, but from the images I see on here the slide to unlock was bigger (similar to IPhone) and it also double locks, when I slide to unlock I have to do the other slide to unlock as well. This is probably something simple sorry if this is a stupid question. Many thanks

if the double lock issue is the windows default lock being on also, you need to disable it. there`s a cab in this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=584415 i think you may need to back up original lockscreen files 1st or you may lose default lock screen if you decide to uninstall s2u2. i`m not 100% certain though
hey guys,
any of you found an app to replace the swipe unlock for the unlock pattern, rather than having both?
not urgent as this is the best phone I've ever had, but would be a nice touch.

You're right... but it's such a shame don't you think... really no need for the swipe, if you have the pattern....
I thought that was the case...
May look into how hard it will be to create an app to do it
The swipe unlock can be replaced with iphone/hero/donut/eclair style unlocking using the lockbot app. So I think an app should be able to solve this (However I'm not capable of making suck apps).
there is a free app called "No Lock" which simply disables the lock screen apparently. If you have the pattern lock underneath this then i guess you would just get that.
i haven't tried this, but just came across it by accident and it reminded me of this thread
Thanks for that, but no luck
It disables both the lock and the unlock screens (if that makes sense)
It is quite handy if you are at home and have the phone on a table and having a text conversation where you keep turning the screen on and off, but not quite what I wanted
I wonder if this is something that could be built on top of to give us what we want, I will email the Dev of this app and see what they say about it.
I will update when I know more
Right then guys, I have had a response from BoD
I sent them this:
Good afternoon,
I have downloaded the no lock app for android. It is great app, however, there are quite a few users of android who would like to see an app that would remove the lock screen but keep the pattern unlock screen or pin screen etc. Im hoping you are open to suggestions, and as you have created the app to remove the lock screens completely (which is pretty much halfway there), I was wondering if you were thinking of creating an app capable of this?
If you are and would like beta testers, I'm sure i could get a few volenteers together to do so.
Thanks,
To which they responded (very quickly too):
Hi!
Unfortunately there is no way (that I know of) to do that currently.
I hope you'll enjoy the app anyway.
Have a nice day,
So.... It looks like they are not aware of how this can be done, IF it can be done, which is a shame.
Thanks sungrad for pointing the app out though
no probs sorry it wasn't much use
it exists in the security settings in the phone (pattern lock ) just enable it

I have the pattern unlock enabled.
The problem is that to unlock my phone now I have the swipe (with the triangle and the curve) and the pattern unlock. I want the pattern unlock to replace the swipe unlock, rather than be requested as well as the swipe unlock.
It's only a minor issue I have, but it does get annoying when you are using it a lot (text conversation etc)

it is really annoying but i have an idea the application mananger if we could know its name we could deactivate it like what they do with htc devices they deactivated htc sense
nobody has a solution for that?
Not exactly what you're after but there are widgets that toggle the unlock pattern off/on. You could toggle the unlock pattern off when texting so you only have to do the swipe. SwitchPro Widget has this feature but I haven't tested it with X10.
EDIT: Found this. It may be what you're after http://www.appbrain.com/app/com.brandongoodman.smartlock
Bump? I just wonder if anyone found a solution to this? I would really want what the OP states
just wanted to add... be careful with the "pattern lock" ... it literally disables your phone after 5 wrong pattern tries. I nearly did a system wipe just to unlock it.. Luckily for me it accepted my email account with "null" for password to re-enable it
I had that no lock app and it looked nice and handy but it messed with the pattern and slide default unlock when I went to uninstall, all I wanted was the pattern but no matter what way I set it,the swipe unlock would always be there, after loads of reboots and setting/unsetting a lock pattern it still did`nt work, this is after I uninstalled, after I dont know how many reboots even when I had the pattern enabled the swipe would come up first then the pattern, sometime only the swipe, it worked itself out, so be cautious of it....
I have searched everywhere and I cannot find how to stop the normal unlock method and ONLY use the pattern to unlock the screen. I don't like having two unlock screens and I would like to use the pattern unlock. Is this possible without being built into a rom? I would prefer to remove the necessary files from the phone instead of installing new apps but anything is better than nothing right now.
On my hero i attempted to remove the sense unlock screen only to be greeted with the vanilla lockscreen.
I also tried using screenmodewidget but it disables both the lockscreen and pattern unlock.
Yeah, apps like "No Lock" do the same thing. Ugh.
Is this possible within a custom rom? anyone?
Id like this also, the pattern screen is a much sleeker looking screen than the standard unlock
it really makes no sense to have both
but no one can tell me how to make it just pattern lol

LOL, i didn't realize that it showed the htc thing still. it shouldn't. it should just be the pattern showing when you turn the screen on.
sorry, until someone actually writes a 2.1 ROM for this phone (i think the only reason someone hasn't is because the 4g kernel stuff hasn't been released yet, even tho 2.1 aosp has), you may be stuck with that...
weird tho...i don't think my girlbuddy's incredible does that, and it's sense too...
here's a quick work-around to kind of have only pattern lock. So when the normal lock screen comes on, just hit the "Menu" key and that'll go away, now you have just the pattern lock. This way it seems quicker for me.
BTW, i'm using the nonSense ROM, so it comes with standard Droid lock with the lock on left and speaker on right.

Hi all, does anybody knows how to change setting if possible, on previous screen lock there was an option to put phone sound on and off

Go to Sound, look under Feedback - there's a "screen lock sounds" setting.
What I think he is talking about is the Stock Lock Screen that has the mute slide option.
If that is what you are looking for HERE it is.
If I am wrong I am sorry for the worthless post
