Hey yall I just got the goto lockscreen from Google (because it is a paid app) and it is AMAZING) this is by far one of the cleanest lockscreen apps I've used. I recommend using this along side jet
ex Rom and zeam launcher. You're also going to have to get no lockscreen toggle fRom the market. But trust its worth your time.
This app includes:
Rotary unlock accommodated with messaging, call, and gmail rotary shortcuts
Clean lockscreen interface
Personalization options such as setting owner name to display ect.

thanks for the info
bt i prefer widget locker over this goto
n its also a paid app
thanks for the info
seems to be not so bad.
thank you
Thanks for the info but i prefer if we could actually edit our stock ones instead of third party apps
Widget locker for me brought both

Downloaded it, pretty decent lockscreen! WidgetLocker is good but this isn't so bad either
Since its a paid app, can you post some screenshots?
Special thank
Thank you very much

Hi,
i switched from the DESIRE Rom`s to CM and i`m pretty happy so far, but i still want some things i miss:
1. an app drawer that moves quicker.. i mean this one is nice and 3D but so slow to scroll!. I looked for spare parts but it seams there is no standalone app for the N1
2. Other than the iphone style lock screen and the pattern one, can we get something else? Maybe the Desire Lock Screen?
3. Is there a way to install the Desire Mail app and Clock (the one with weather and all)
thanks!
1. look up helixlauncher, one of them on the market is a drawer.
2. check out lock 2.0
3. I'm not sure about these.

The answer to #3 is no.
1. HelixLauncher, market or on this forum. Just a simple push or install of an APK.
2. Lock 2.0 or Lockbot, both on market. Search for "Lockscreen"
3. I'm not too sure what you mean but which mail app are you talking about? Check out Pure Messenger Widget and for the clock, check out "Beautiful Widgets" or "Weather and Toggle Widget" or something like that. (I actually forgot the name of this one)
Well i`m using helixlauncher2 and the app drawer is slugish.
As for lock 2.0 it's iphone style
I would have liked to have the Mail app from the desire ROM, because it was really good. but installing the apk does not work
Well thanks for the answers

Helix Launcher 2 IS quite slow, a newer version in on the way thats better but if you use Helix Launcher (NOT 2) it is the older drawer style and much faster.
LockBot allows you to use several lock screen styles including the Desire/Hero style one
Weather Widget Donate and Beautiful widgets both provide a similar clock to the desire one and support skins so you can customise them.
Or use HelixLauncher2 0.7b1 - just as fast as stock.

Yep its no longer laggy
well the app drawer is not as fast as i would like it to be in HelixLauncher2 0.7b1 but it's ok. Thanks for the tips btw
I am not sure if this is possible with a lockscreen widget or another addon.. but is this possible with the android and if so, does it exist? Its for an iphone...
TIA
You can mimic/enhance that look with widget locker.

You can get WidgetLocker and put whatever widgets you want on your lockscreen. There is an app called executive assistant that puts all of this info on your lockscreen as well.
I use widget locker, its a great app. I will have to look for the other widgets to get all these features.
thanks
haha, looking for the right widgets is becoming numb..
cant find a weather widget or an agenda one... any advice?
For agenda widget I found:
Android Agenda Widget
http://www.appbrain.com/app/android-agenda-widget/com.roflharrison.agenda
Just needed to update the settings to change the look of it..
next up, weather search continues
Weather - I use weatherbug
Agenda - Android agenda widget is always one of my first downloads when I wipe
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
can you make weather bug look like the pic in the original post?
thanks
Using Launch-X Pro to add extra icons I use.. Still looking for weather and clock.
For Clock, I just found Digital Clock Widget
http://www.appbrain.com/app/digital-clock-widget/com.maize.digitalClock
I am totally stuck on the weather widget. I cant find a 4x1 widget to show a simple weather like the OP... any help here please?
Found it.. for weather, I am using weather forecast widget
http://www.appbrain.com/app/org.koxx.forecast_weather.v2
its not the ideal solution but it will work.. I will upload my finished screen tonight
thanks
Sorry for the delay in putting the picture up..
Here is my lockscreen after all the above
Very nice. I prefer the 2x2 weather and agenda widgets so I can see more agenda items.. Personal preference, just sharing.
Also - have you had any issues with accidentally opening the shortcuts? I've been using a slider to enable/disable interactions to prevent that
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
nope, I do carry my phone in my pocket too. I know there is an app called "Call sure" I think... not 100% on the name but basically gives you another prompt to make sure you want to dial someone and should stop pocket dialing
Are you using multi icon widget for the apps? And what does the lock icon do?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
For those icons on the bottom, I use Launch-X Pro
the lock button just locks the phone instead of hitting the power button.
I'm getting my rom all sorted out just the way i like it:
CM7.021
mattedblues
swype
launcherpro
beautiful widgets for weather
changed the Sprint banner
etc...
I finally found the clock I've been wanting, turned out to be the bobclockd3. Now I just have 2 questions I can't find answers to without paying for an app to do it.
1. How do I get it to replace the clock on my lockscreen with the bobclockd3?
2. How can I get my weather widget on my lockscreen?
You need widget locker. I know its 2$ but its worth it. U need that program to do everything ur trying to do. And its what others use when u see the lockscreen screenshots

Everyone doesnt like Touchwiz bcoz of its functionality especially pre-Htc Sense users like me,so it would be helpful to know what alternatives you are using and also their compatibility with the Note as of now.
Currently I have replaced the dialer and contacts with Go contacts ex,using MX video player for music...etc
What are ur suggested apps?
Sent from my GT-N7000 using XDA Premium App
Modded adw launcher ex with sense based mod... Aside from that you can use beautiful widgets or fancy widgets for your status bar toggles...
For the animated HTC style analog clocks...
Search for the following term -
Animated analog clock
Download the basic animated analog clock
By the developer named DNS project..
https://market.android.com/details?id=de.dnsproject.clock_widget_main&hl=en
And then dowoad a style pack of your choice made by the same developer...
Find some sense and miui and all other type of styled icons for your newly modded UI from here -

cant agree more
LP is great and all but the dev team hasn't updated in ages and some of the notification doesn't work (ie gmail)
LP+ is indeed great, but I have now switched to ADW because LP+ just seems to have no ongoing support and doesn't really offer anything that you can't get with Go Launcher or ADW (in fact it now offers less than each of those launchers).
In terms of replacement apps:
I prefer Opera to stock - proper text reflow on pinch zooming plus better tabs management
Dice Player is easily the best video player available for the Note.
Been using Go launcher,I can say till now for me its the most lag free with best widgets support,especially the new Message widget...it luks awesome.

Is it possible to change a app icon on the lockscreen to a widget?
more importantly the wifi hotspot settings button.
I think if you include it on the bottom of the 4 places that HTC uses, they should appear on the lockscreen
sent using HTC1S
The lockscreen only shows what app icons are currently in your dock, and since you can't put widgets in your your dock it won't work.
Try widgetlocker app if its something you really need. It's a paid app but worth it, lots of cool options.

Use WidgetLocker from Play market. It might have that feature.
Right now I'm using Notification Toggle from the Play store.. and there are several other apps that do the same thing.. Lets you put many different settings in your notification pull-down which you can access from lock screen
