lost dock moe after 2.3.4 update - HTC Sensation

Hi...pretty upset here...
it took me forever to find and use the dock mode on the sensation by adding the link to the lock screen since you cant access the dock mode icon from anywear else.
but i just updated to 2.3.4 via tmobile, and after reboot the icon was removed from the lock screen, and now it doesnt show on the app list when you try to put it back.
i do know that dock mode is still ON the device since i can access it through googles car mode ( where i added it as a shortcut IN that program)
what gives.. i mean seriously do they hate home dock mode so much?

Odd. I just updated and still have a "Dock Mode" in my apps drawer.

hows that possible? unless your not stock rom? maybe i should have mentioned that.. im on stock tmobile rom. the ONLY way i can get to the dock app shortcut was to go to my lock screen set up, and add it to one of the 4 icons that can be placed on the lock screen. but after update not only was it auto removed from my lock screen, its not in the apps list when adding to my lock screen ( it was NEVER in my regular apps list)
i cant see that app any wear else... can you?

I think people are having the same problem with the phone quick launch. There is a thread about that issue.
I imagine they will have an update to fix this soon.

Yup. Same here on stock. Car Mode, Dock Simulator, Car Panel (euro sense 3)all show as options but no Dock Mode but it still launches for me automatically in the dock. Just use Car Mode to launch it. Has a nicer icon anyway.

my dock mode is gone also i can launch it from titanium back up and works fine
but it will not let me install from the back up

Did you check with Larry and Curly ?

Just download it, open a file explorer, go to it's download location (wherever you downloaded it to) and click on it. Also remember to allow installation of non-market apps in the settings. Another way would to just search for it on the market. Market link - (Free) - https://market.android.com/details?id=com.nanoha.MyLockScreen_free&feature=search_result ; (Paid) - https://market.android.com/details?id=com.nanoha.MyLockScreen&feature=search_result .
This is pretty smooth,
One thing I thought was odd was that in your setup you have an Ad. While not odd in itself, you need to make money somehow. The ad was in Chinese, or Japanese, or some other symbol language.
I'd probably be more inclined to click an ad I could read, just a heads up.

Nice lock screen app, but the short cut settings are very unstable. Sometimes they work, most times they don't...
Like This . Thank You .
Tested the free version an view minutes and bought the app. Great look screen!
I like it but the use of a lockscreen is destroyed when just a home button exits the lock.
Great job dev!

looks nice tnx
Hey dev, I have a small glitch. Using the ripple lock and the phone was in sleep mode my alarm went off. I had no way of turning the alarm off. Nothing popped up giving me the option to turn the alarm off. The phone woke up locked but that was it. I was using the stock alarm if that matters.
Thanks.

Is there a way to disable the volume buttons? Right now when the volume buttons are pushed the screen turns on and makes a beep sound
i really love ripplelock, but i have one problem:
if i put my phone in airplanemode at night (to save some battery) and turn off airplanemode at the next morning, usualy the PIN-input-screen pops up. But if i install ripple lock, the PIN-input-screen doesnt pop up, regardless of the chosen double-lockscreen method. only while system security lock is enabled, the PIN-input-screen pops up, but this way i get an double lockscreen.
The only version, which works properly for me without this issue is v2.2, evrey other version above 2.2 has the descriped bug. Thats why i stick with this version and hope this issue will be fixed soon.
(Also I would love to see that the home-button doesnt unlock anymore, while the status-bar is hidden (one of two main reasons, why i use ripple lock instead of the modded system lockscreen, which looks nearly the same except for the visible status-bar and that the lock icon functions only as a slider).)
BTW: I'm on an rooted Desire HD with cm7
Pretty cool app. Slight bugs:
1st time I had a notification written in Chinese or something. Then came up in English after I got through that one. Maybe or maybe not a bug; maybe you could ask the user 1st time setup which language to use.
2nd bug is that I came out of standby and was at the homescreen and then the lockscreen loaded up a second or two later. Maybe it's my midrange phone (Galaxy Ace) causing it to be a bit laggy.
Otherwise pretty awesome app.
I love the look of honeycomb especially the lockscreen. I've been using Ripple Lock for about 3 weeks now. So far so good. Thank you Dev!

Interesting Lock Screen/status bar hack

well a couple days ago i was messing around with launchers. i had just finished installing and configuring my home screen for go launcher ex, and like it so much i decided to set it as the default homescreen app.
next i decided to install go locker and see if i liked any of their lock screens. so i installed one i liked and tested it. when i was satisfied with the appearance i decided to reboot the phone just so i can see it all settle in from a cold boot. but hadnt yet set go locker as default.
this is the part that gets interesting:
on boot everything started normal. but my default pin code screen came up. so i entered the pin and right after logging in a window popped up asking me which locker id like to use or select as default.
assuming this was the 'go locker' trying to launch itself after the fact on boot because it wasnt yet set as default i decided, what the heck let me set it as default right away so i can see it all boot up straight in. and im really glad i did.
i noticed after a while of using the device that accessing some programs like messaging, email and facebook that for some strange reason my default lock screen requesting the pin would pop up. id have to enter the pin for the app to actually launch. it was weird but i sorta liked it, and decided to get to the bottom of what caused this glitch over the past 24hrs.
it seems that the initial boot which asked me which locker i would like to use was an action launched by the status bar. thus, after setting it to use go locker erroneously as default, now any time i select a notification from the status bar, the pin code lock screen pops up requesting the pin before giving access to the notification. and for some reason, i really really like this.
i am thinking the lock screen is somehow embedded with the statusbar? wonder if any devs could shed some light on what configuration would cause this. and im interested in setting it manually to other apps as well. i dont mind that its my default pin code screen. what i like especially being able to lock apps with my default pincode screen. meaning i wouldnt have to install any additional software to achieve app launch security for specific apps. for now it only works on apps that notify me via the status bar. i figured out that much.

Lock screen replacement on CM12

I've been running CM12 for a while now and the only thing I dislike about Lolipop is the lock screen. I really miss widgets and apps on my lock screen. I installed C Locker (Pro) which I had used on a different phone running KK and it works much better now on Lolipop. It is very customizable, I am using transparent clock/weather widget, calendar widget (Scrollable) and a number of app shortcuts. The only gotcha was I had to delete the Android guest account otherwise when I would unlock it would go to the Lolipop lock screen. You can setup up a lot of gesture actions, and click on the lock button turns the phone back off. Mine is probably gaudy and way too colorful for most but that's how I like it

I couldn't remember exactly so I went through it again
1- Switch user to the guest user in settings (have to go through initial setup for the guest user, I skipped everything I could in the setup process)
2- then go to back into the users in settings
3- instead of choosing your main user account to switch back to, select "remove Guest"
At this point, it switched me back to my original user, but the touch screen is not responsive
Pull battery and replace
once rebooted, go into C Locker, turn it off and then back on.
Then everything works fine.
The guest user will still show up in users, I guess it recreates it.
Hope this helps...

Thanks a lot for your quick reply but i found another way to disable it In Clocker ->Security->turn off default lock screen.. and you are done with it. But in this case you will miss out those beautiful floating notifications on lock screen.

Showing Home Screen before unlocking (with a pattern or pin, maybe more?)

I've been using WidgetLocker from TeslaCoil Software for years. They sadly have stopped working on it and removed it from the play market. So, I decided to figure out how to show my home screen BEFORE unlocking my phone.
It was actually pretty easy. I think you have to be rooted because you have to change application settings.
1) Download an application settings app
I used the Applications Settings app from Xposed, others might work. You have to be able to let apps show while locked. (Also convenient for note taking on the go).
2) Use said app settings app to change the settings for your Home screen app and let it show while locked.
This lets you get to your home screen by pressing softkeys IF it was that last app you were in. Otherwise it forces you to unlock and then goes to the last used app. Not what we want.​
3) Install some kind of lockscreen app that lets you put Shortcuts on the lockscreen. I'm using WidgetUnlocker, I lost it in phone wipe without knowing that it was not in the market and downloaded it elsewhere. I had already paid for it and the developer directly told me that they are not working on it anymore in favor of NovaLauncher. I think that there are other lock screen apps that will let you add shortcuts to shortcuts.
3) In said app, make a shortcut that points to Activities -> (YourHomeScreenAppName/Launcher) -> com.android.launcher2.Launcher
TADA! You can now access your home screen before drawing your pattern or pin by using the shortcut you created. You can interact with folders and widgets on your home screen. However, your pattern unlock will appear whenever you try to click on anything that would switch to another app. I've played with this quite extensively and have only one way to get past the pattern; but, it only lets me change the settings with WidgetLocker. .. So, someone could say, add a email / txt / etc widget to WidgetLocker that would let them scroll through you emails or txts etc. However, they would NOT be able to click and access the whole message. (That requires switching to another app besides your Homescreen/Launcher and hence your pattern lock will pop up.)
NOTE: I am not sure exactly how this will work with other lockscreen apps. I'm guessing that it will work with any app that still lets you use your devices pattern or pin lock. I'm not sure about the ones that make you use their app for a pattern etc lock.

A few bugs/problems.

Screen lock bug
Whenever I swipe down from the top of the screen to where my notifications are. I can't toggle WiFi, Bluetooth, auto rotate, etc without it locking my screen after I press it. I am however able to use screenshot and record, and I'm not sure what other toggles do it.
Developer options bug
I'm not sure what causes it, but every few days, the "show taps" that I always have enabled gets disabled and I have to re-enable it.
Honor theme editor bug
For the most part, it works. But after I create the new theme and apply it. I only have a few of the button icons I chose (home button, back button, etc)
Wallpaper bug
Again, I'm not sure what causes this, but every once in awhile, my wallpaper of my phone changes (I use Next Launcher, but I'm pretty sure it started before I installed it)
I think I'm missing 1 or maybe 2, but I can't think of them at the moment.
Please and thank you for your time.

Whenever I push any of the toggle buttons, they work. But a lot of them lock my screen after I press them and I need to re unlock my phone.
Developer options bug
--- Don't know what u mean show taps
After you unlock the Android developer options.
There's an option you can enable to show a white circle each time you touch the screen. And it somehow gets disabled after awhile. Never had this problem on other phones.

I set my background of my phone from a picture from gallery. But sometimes the background pic gets set back to default for no reason.

So there's no way to fix the screen lock? Cuz it's kinda annoying that I have to turn the phone screen on again just cuz I enable/disable WiFi, Bluetooth, auto rotate, etc
