Any luck so far, I'd much rather this lock screen.
Seems more logical, since I hold the phone on it's lower half, easy thumb access.
while someone is at it would you mind looking into getting the puzzle lock screen from other Galaxy S devices as well?
I'm hooked on widget locker...You can set it to use the HTC slide screen too...

pretty nice but the delay is too much so at least it is useless to me
doesnt seem to have a section for the epic
I miss stock lock :'(
This one works.

I finally got around to following the tutorial and getting it to work. Simply flash the attached zip from clockwork.
Just flashed and it works perfectly thanks for this it a needed add on the stock lock screen was pretty lame.

Works and looks great! Great job, thanx.
@bubby - Flashed no problem, works great, thanks!
Worked perfectly. Thanks. Can it do other things besides sound and unlock? and if so how do i add them?
Also anyway i can unlock to open text msgs? like the old one. i do like this lock screen. Just wondering how to customize it.
Works great fot me as well!
Just wondering though, is there anyway to go back to the TW lockscreen after installin the stock unlock screen mod?
Sorry for the noob question but how would I flash this file using clockwork recovery? Would I have to rename this to update.zip or just select install from sd card? I tried the latter and know seemed like it worked by I still get the same default lock screen. Any suggestions would be much appreciated

You must be on a deodexed rom or it will not work, and ill put togethet a zip to flash back soon.

Well tried it. Tried the widget locker. Honestly i dont see what the fuss about this is. it made it so i couldnt unlock to goto text msg when i got a new one or anything. i went back to stock lock screen. ill wait til the puzzle piece lock screen works. Thanks for your hard work tho this lock screen isnt for me.
This thing is fickle as hell for me. I love it, though. Does anyone else have issues with it not actually coming up when using a pattern unlock?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
It works fine for me when using pattern unlock, of corse, tough, i am testing on my rom so mayb e that's the solution? Fair bet either way...

The other day my gf was looking at pics in the gallery and according to her she swiped to the left and the next pic was black. She swiped again and nothing happened. She hit the back button and nothing happened. She hit the back button a few more times and ir brought her back to the main gallery screen. Amazingly the new pic she had just taken were not in the gallery anymore. All other pics were tho. So I snatch the phone from her to see what's up. Turns out I can view those pics she lost with astro but not the stock gallery. I also found out that when I get a call or a msg mt phone only vibrates now. I went to set the tone for msging and all my tones were gone. Again they are there if I browse with astro but ringsextended etc shows nothing. Any ideas wtf happened here?
Btw im using assonance 5.2
For reference I have tried rebooting, pulling the battery and rescanning the media.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
Try downloading "rescan media root" from the market and press re-enable media scanner, then wait for the media scanner to finish and try looking in the gallery again.

Thanks for the speedy reply. I actually had that app long before this happened. I tried scanning but it didn't help. I uninstalled it thinking it might be the problem but that didn't work either. Could it be an internal sd problem? Maybe a reflash is in order here? Id rather not but if that's my only choice then so be it.

Well, the only other thing I can think of now is maybe converting your filesystem to rfs if it's on ext4 or vice versa, if that doesn't work, I can't think of anything else.
Sent from my Captivate
Im using assonance 5.2 so what ever file system comes with that is what im on. I thought all custom roms changed the file system to something better (ext4?) than the stock system. I have had this rom for a good while now with no probs. What would cause my file system to go haywire out of nowhere like that? I can set ringtones and notifications with astro but they dont soundoff when
I get a call or a text. I can set an alarm tone with astro and it DOES SOUNDOFF when the alarm goes off. Whats up with that? Alarm tones work but no ring/text tones...

I believe most ROMs do change your filesystem, I'm not certain serendipity does.
I'm just trying help, perhaps someone else has a better idea of how to solve your problem.

Dude I appreciate your help 1000%. I hope you don't think otherwise. Im just trying to fill in blanks here and maybe ignite an idea that will lead in the right direction.

thanks for the appreciation and I really am trying to think of what could fix your problem but I am simply stumped right now. I hope you get everything figured out. Sorry
No worries bro. Its hard sometimes to decipher peoples mind set thru text. Without tones to hear there isn't much left to go on. Thanks again.

Morning bump. Still ain't got a clue and hesitant to reflash
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
I had this happen once. Visible in file explorer but not in gallery. Stock 2.1 update1 at&t no root, no nothing...
Fortunately for me but maybe unfortunately for you the problem fixed itself after reboot... Maybe it took a couple.
If u mount the phone to ur pc, is everything visible? If so, I would do this:
1. Backup ur media to the pc
2. Grab another gallery.apk file from another rom and using root explorer or super manager, overwrite the apk.
3. If that doesn't work, reflash the Rom - at least everything is backed up

Weird. I just grabbed a screeny with shootme and my gallery came back. What's weirder is that I moved all pics from phone to pc the other day and *thought* I deleted them from the gallery too. Either im an idiot or something real strange has happened. Thanks for the suggestions.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
It crashed again a few minutes ago and I took another screeny and it came back. Something happening with the refresh in there it seems.

Alrite just for closure.. I flashed serendipity and media is back to normal. Serendipity seems good. Gps works good for me now but I seem to get more lag than before, mainly when waiting for widget list to load after home screen long press

Ok so starting today I started having this weird problem with my phone freezing/stuttering/getting stuck between home screens and idk why it happens. Everything seems fine then when I swipe between my screens it kind gets stuck halfway between them and won't let me do anything to go to the next one. Locking the phone and unlocking it fixes the problem temporarily but it keeps happening.
Running gingerclone v2.0 (fully updated)
Launcher pro with 7 home screens with looping on
I havnt flashed anything since the 2nd update of gingerclone v2.0 so I don't know what caused it. I would take a screen shot but it happens randomly and when it does I can't go to open shootme cuz the screens won't move all the way to tap on anything. Any ideas guys?

i had the same problem. but i just reflash the rom..
So this is still happening every now and then :-/ I finally decided to say **** it and I Odined back to stock kg2 and it still happens so I called t-mobile and they said that it is a known issue that is software based and will hopefully be fixed in the next ota :-/

it happened only to when i had grease or sweat on it or when it was overloaded with apps being used
What did you overclock it too?
Completely stock skyrocket, for whatever reason a couple times a week my screen will go completely black and won't be able to unlock. The only way to get it working again is too remove the battery. In this state I still hear txt tones and such, but no buttons will brig the screen back.

What have you done to your phone so far? Root? Install ROM? Kernel? OC? UV?
All of these things will be useful to know when trying to solve it.

First 2 words of my post "completely stock". No roms, kernals, or flash. Just straight out of the box phone with 2.3.6 update through att
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using XDA App
That honestly sounds like a sleep death, which definitely should NOT happen on a stock rom... If you can I would definitely take that phone back to ATT or wherever you got it to get it replaced.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium
Could a app cause this? Think it started after I downloaded ICS keyboard. The screen sometimes goes black when I unlock it, but its not a deep dark black like the sleep mode, when this happens if I hit the back button, it fixes it. So I switched which ics keyboard o use now, so hope it stops both issues

i had 2 stock sgh-i727r completely unmodified do this. i did factory resets and issues re-occurred. could have been app related but i was having it with no apps after.
didnt bother troubleshooting more than a hour, took it to rogers as both phones had problems < 15 days of getting the phone
first one lasted just 12 hours, rogers store did a DOA replacement and got it right away.
2 weeks later, my replacement sgh-i727r had the same problem. called rogers, got my replacement in 3 days.
so far so good.
rogers chalked it up to hardware issue after asking if i had rooted the phone each time.
This happened to me for the first time ever, yesterday.
I received a text. Phone made a notification sound, but then the screen would not come on. I could hear keys and notification sounds, but no visuals.
I took the battery out and now all is ok again.
I am on a stock 2.3.5 Rogers ROM.
if this problem persists, follow these steps.
Backup apps with titanium backup, but only the ones with information u really need
export contacts to sd
download darkside to sd
boot into cwm and flash darkside
reboot the phone BUT RIGHT BACK INTO ODIN.
Flash the stock rom or one of the pre-rootex ones
Problem solved :-D

This EXACT thing happened to my skyrocket and my friends on our bone stock phones.. We have both since flashed quick wiz rom onto our phone and has not happened a single time... The problem? ATT Sucks... just flash your phone
This started happening to me today and it has happened more than 4 times now :/ I get the notification... BLN comes on but I can't turn on the screen. If I click the power button or volume buttons, the backlights go off for a few seconds and then come back on. This is getting really annoying
Edit: Rebooted the phone just now and it happened AGAIN on the first text I received... wtff is this
Has anyone noticed some super slow screen rotations? Also, on the home screen, are you able to auto rotate? My MoPho Q is acting funny after flashing some stock system images and updating(Mine freezes and reboot loops sometimes). If anyone has any issues with their screen having rotate lag please post here, thanks!
I havent experienced any of those issues... I have rooted deodexed and otherwise stock phone. Maybe try to reflash?

Thanks for replying. I have been reflashing stuff all day, nothing seems stable. Had phone up for 10 hours then started reboot looping. I formatted my sd card and did factory reset, tried 3 or 4 different ways of recovering everything so idk what else to do. I am just now re-rooting and trying deodexed, making backups every step of the way(beyond frustrated).

Wow that's no fun... how bad is the auto rotate lag? It takes mine about .2 seconds, not long but there is a slight delay. And the only way I can rotate the home screen is if I slide the keyboard out. I was looking into making my own ROM but didn't figure it out. I'm hoping for one soon, maybe that would fix for your problem too.

Just recently I've been having problems with my screen not rotating back after sliding out the keyboard. Sometimes it doesn't rotate at all. I'm just rooted with the latest update also. Don't know why this is happening.
I've had that a couple times, usually it goes away on its own. I tried turning rotation on/off, forcing it back to portrait mode using apps that only run in portrait, cycling lock screen on and off, finally it just started fixing it self after a reboot or time.

Haha, did exact same things. And you're right. Hasn't happened in awhile.
Just wanted to confirm that I have problems with this too. Sometimes I get tired of waiting to the point that I open the keyboard to force landscape mode.
