I was wondering...for you guys on stock ROM (unrooted), is there anything cool/interesting that you do to customize your lockscreen?
Or is it just too wasteful in terms of RAM usage and battery life?
If you do anything unique besides default settings for your lockscreen post it here! with a screenshot too!

Werd....what kind of customizations did you use it for?
Widget Locker here too...
widget locker here as well. It the only way to go for customization similar to what you get on your homescreens.
Here's mine.
I have widget locker but stopped using it, It makes my device slugish, I went back to the stock lockscreen! Slugishness has gone and it still suits my theme/LWP

Weird, I've never noticed a performance difference, even when I had it on my 600mhz htc legend.

I like the full screen animation that displays when I unlock on the stock Sense. I'm running Virtuous and using Launcher Pro. I have tried some nice widget apps but I have not found that kind of animation for Launcher Pro. Anyone know how to get this (preferably free .
There is but it won't play wenu open phone u havta open app. Think it's. Animated weather or something like tht. I wanted same thing udo but couldn't find anything close.

Yes, that one is pretty good. It might be the one I stick with. either that or get a nicer looking widget and give up the animation. Thanks
Yea i did option 2. Kinda miss the cool animation

Beautiful Widgets can be set up to display weather animations on phone unlock.

I was wondering if it did that. Downloaded some gorgeous custom Beautiful click widgets from this forum today. If I can install the app and get screen animation it will be worth the few bucks. Thanks.

Also "Weather & Toggle Widgets" does the unlock animations, I think it's $1.99 in the market. You do have to download the "Forecast Addon" but it's free. There're some nice skins for it in the market as well.

Yes I saw a youtube on that. A comment said it was a bit out of date and recommended Beautiful. Any idea which is best?
I just now put on beautiful super widget. Very nice. The custom clock I put on from xda is nicer though. It's a "Fancy" widget but not animated. Named HTCclockwidget-redrum. I'd love that clock with animated weather.
Anyway I'm happy now. Thanks guys. Maybe I'll even try Weather and Toggle to check the skins.
Gotta love XDA
You can give fancy Widgets a try too.

Fancy Widgets Pro does full screen weather on unlock (in any app. Not just when u are on the home screen). Well worth it

I haven't looked because really I don't know where to start.
I'm looking for launchers that might catch my eye. Currently I'm using Go Launcher because its pretty unique. Beautiful transitions, drawer transitions. Not enough that I want to keep it, but I am using it. I've used probably ever market launcher possible, I believe I remember seeing certain people make there own and am curious if some of this fellows who make them or find them would like to post them?
I've used SPB shell more then half of my android life I've had the phone, that being said. It is a great launcher but I just need something less power hungry and not huge in size.
I'm looking for unique and simple but yet beautiful launcher.

Launcher pro plus and adw ex are my favorites

also have regina 3d,gde,@home,panda,dxtop,various others in the market. android seven is a neat one for a desktop look based on win7
Launcher Pro Plus is one of the most popular choices and it's what I use.
Along side with WidgetLocker you can create some pretty great looking stuff.
Attached is my lockscreen and homescreen.
I've tried every one of those ----
This is my setup.

Looks amazing! Can you detail what all you're running?
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA App
Go Launcher Ex
Minimalistic Text
LCD Density
Fancy Widget (Update its not in a new screen shot)
MIUI, Corzeth Theme?

I'm just so damn proud of my setup I need to post my updated screenshots
I used to run launcher pro, but development kind of stalled and the widgets were lacking.
Currently I am running go launcher ex, and it's probably the closest thing to sense in third party launchers. The calendar widget is great and the recent and running app tabs are great. Their weather widget is the closest thing to sense I've found but unfortunately it destroys your battery life.
Another thing to try is their dialer. It has the quick dial search like sense. You don't have to use the launcher with this one.

wow thats a nice setup!
I wouldn't call it beautiful, but I use zeam launcher. It's simple and useful.

If you bought widget Locker, make sure you have it set right with root permissions. I'm using it and the stock lock screen never pops up.

WidgetLocker is indeed a great app... lots of customization options. No problems here with it.
Another +1 for widget locker.

I really don't want widget locker... if i kill all apps the stock lockscreen appears. I want a replacement locker... I want something native... not an overlay.
Those with widget locker, are you guys able to get easy wake to work?

Ok, nothing special: Pixel Rain as background and Apex Launcher with some Android Ice Cream Sandwich Icons. The Icon pack can be found here.
You could have found these Icons already in a main thread here in the forum.
But what is really important is, DzzR made me a few icons on request. They were included in a new version of his Icon Pack within one day. If you like these and maybe others, don't hesitate...
And yes, I love it minimalistic so there is a bit too much of Google on my screen
Here's mine, cute transformer prime background
beautiful meteo
Here's mine. I'm currently using beautiful meteo wallpaper.
My only concern would be battery drain. Do you think that animated wallpapers drain a lot of the battery?
And looking for the more simple "stock" grass wallpaper though, if someone could point me towards it? I made a lot of research but didn't manage to get something working on this not-yet-rooted One S.

Apex Launcher, Minimalistic Text and Simple Text.
Minimalistic Text settings can be downloaded here. Use Simple Text to create your own text icons on the fly and sorry, I don't remember where the background pics come from. It was a package of them, possibly inspired by cyanogen.

Is there a way to enable on screen widget buttons and widgets on the cm9.1? Things like fancy widgets, or so. I really like having the clock on my homescreen, but can't find a way to enable them. When I hold the screen down, I only get a choice to change my wallpaper. I might be spoiled from sense, but i'd love to see a way to enable this. Thanks for any help.
