Has anybody found a way to use the vanilla lock screen without having to uninstall the HTC Clock and also have the music player show up when locked? I pretty much know that it's not around but was wondering if it can be done? TIA.
There is a app
call widget locker

Has anybody used Ripple lock before?
Have you had problems?
I downloaded it and it seems to be doing something odd...
If I use it's shortcut function and make a change to something in that instance, those changes only stay in the instances when I access the app through that shortcut, if I unlock the device, and acces the same app from the launcher, the changes I made aren't there, and any changes I make from the launcher aren't there when I access the app from the ripple lock shortcut.
Does anyone have any knoweledge of this app? Can anyone elaborate?

I installed the GO Launcher EX that came with the Google Apps RAR in the developer forum and noticed that I am unable to set my own custom wallpaper. I am only able to set a Live wallpaper or the default one that comes with GO Launcher EX. Anyone else have this problem?
When I attempt to do so, I go to the gallery, select my picture, crop and size it, then try to set it. It does the whole "Saving" thing but when returning back to the launcher, nothing has changed.
I've tried both from the Wallpaper option on "Menu" as well as under Theme Settings in GO Launcher EX.
Also, anyone know of a way to change the Amazon lock screen? The Amazon lock screen is still present after installing GO Launcher EX and will change the wallpaper to one of the random lock screen ones after turning off the screen and locking the device anyway...
Thanks in advance!!
EDIT: I should also note that I am rooted.
I have the same problem but am not rooted. I would love to disable Amazon's rotating wallpaper in favor of one of Go Laucher's.
I was planning on going into the system files and locate the folder its pulling the wallpapers from. Hopefully all we have to do is replace them with the wallpapers we like. Go launcher wallpaper doesn't shift left and right for me either when screen moving.

the problem seems to lie in the Fire's own stock lock screen. given the fact that it is rooted, see if you can disable the stock lock screen (using No Lock from the android market) and replacing it with something like Go Locker or WidgetLocker (though some say WidgetLocker doesn't work well)

The wallpaper for the launcher is located in the launchers apk. The wallpapers for the lockscreen are in framework-res.apk the standard place for an aftermarket launcher to pull wallpapers from is framework-res.apk (correct me if I'm wrong. The rom would pretty much have to be custom to fix this. Therefore it would be best for us to get a working recovery(twrp or clockwork using short presses to move through menus and long presses to select) then focus on ICS or HC(probably better off ICS) so we have a soft home, menu, back button.
Then changing wallpapers would be a breeze.

I got no lock to work. Same solution used to get Android Market to work. Get Titanium Backup installed (need the paid version) and you can use it to change the installed No Lock app to a system app. Reboot and it works fine. Will need to have your Kindle Fire Rooted.
Ok, Now I have No Log working, but how do I replace the Lock Screen?
GO Launcher EX wallpaper, make it stick
It's not a question of disabling the locker; regardless of whether the phone locks or not, the default Kindle slider screen appears on wake-up, and after sliding, the default Kindle wallpaper is there instead of GO Launcher's wallpaper.
I, too, am greatly annoyed by this.
If pyrostic is right, then regrettably there's no simple way to fix this. Which would suck. (Many of us are not developers.)
Widget locker works well for changing the lockscreen wallpaper at least..

It won't stay after you restart.
Benjyp's procedure worked for me. I posted more specifics about what you can do about them.

OK. I've got the wallpapers to not change back to the Amazon ones by changing permissions on the /data/data/com.android.settings/files/wallpaper file, but I can't get scrollable wallpapers to work. I'm using the long rainbow one that came with Go Launcher but it's fixed and won't scroll. I've tried changing the settings in Go Launcher to the Default setting (to allow scrolling wallpapers) but that didn't help.
Anyone else having this problem?
Would you mind sharing how you changed permissions? I.e. what app used and changed from/to what?
My mom downloaded a live wallpaper and like the others, it keeps getting changed back.
so to stop it from changing wallpapers you have to root it?
yea gotta root to stop it from changing wallpapers. I feel like a solution will come out that doesnt require root...hopefully
Solution

Thanks, that solution works for me.
I'm running a (more or less) stock / unrooted AT&T Skyrocket. I upgraded from the Infuse 4G. It was easy to remove the lock screen wallpaper on it, as it was simply done by setting lock screen wallpaper to none. The option isn't on the Skyrocket. Is there a way to remove the lock screen wallpaper (So live wallpaper is shown) without running a second locker?
I tried Go Locker, and occasionally it would cause me to have to unlock 2 screens... I'd prefer not to fix one problem by creating another. Any help is greatly appreciated...and yes I searched but no one has asked this before.
Menu... Settings... Display.... Screen Display... Lockscreen Wallpaper. You can set to various Wallpaper Gallery images or image in your Gallery. I'm on 2.3.6 so not sure if this option exists on 2.3.5 guessing it does as well.
Do what the Guy says above. If you're like me and can't stand the stock lockscreen swipe, try widget locker... really nice customizable lockscreen app. You can completely customize the lockscreen. Slider style, wallpaper brighthtness and all.
And it disables the stock lockscreen.

I want the lock screen, I use the pattern lock.
I want to REMOVE the wallpaper. I want the lock screen translucent like it was on my infuse. The option to set a gallery image is there. But the "none" option is missing.

I suppose maybe I should pay someone to create an app that does this.
Search for transparent lock screen zip
I know it exists...it is on most of the T-Mobile roms

I have gone into security settings and enabled lock screen widgets. This allows me to add DashClock widget to the lockscreen, however, I am unable to remove the default weather/clock widget from the lock screen. "Remove" is greyed out and the only option when you grab it is to "edit" it. DashClock works fine and I can remove it like normal.
This wouldn't be too big of a deal but it won't let me move the default to a different screen, its locked to page one so to get to DashClock I have to swipe.. Well, if I have to swipe its pretty pointless to have lockscreen widgets, I can just swipe to unlock the phone and have my widget on my homescreen.
I was able to take some screenshots to demonstrate what I'm talking about - I'm "new" so I can't post the link but try this: imgur.com/a/oCfVt
I was unable to find a way myself. I've been using this lock screen app instead https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.slidelock
Really nice. Lots off features.

Has anyone found a solution to this?
Only way to do is ..
The only way to hide/disable the stock HTC weather/clock widget is if you have rooted devices with installed Xposed Framework. There is a module called "Sense 6 Lockscreen Modes" where you have an option to remove/hide the widget, in that way being able to have any other widget on your main lockscreen !
I researched about this a lot, and the most covenantway to disable/hide the widget was to apply this module, plus you can have it back any time you want, just by disabling that module!
