Disable stock lockscreen? - Samsung Infuse 4G

I downloaded a windows 7 theme and lockscreen...well the stock lockscreen appears most of the time, sometimes the 7 one does, and then sometimes they stack up where i have to unlock them both. Can disable/freeze the stock lockscreen somehow in titanium or another setting? i am rooted but running stock froyo.
Thanks

I tried and it didnt work...even if it did, it would have disabled having a lockscreen all together, i.was still wanting to use a lockscreen just the windows 7 one and not the stock.

Widgetlocker. There's a million and one themes and options for modification. There's probably a good chance you can get it to look like you want.

Changing the display brightness from the status bar

I noticed that if I hold and slide my finger on the status bar, the brightness will change accordingly: to the left = darker and to the right = brighter. Is it documented anywhere?
Not sure if extremely well known, but it has at least been brought up several times in different captivate threads.
As long as auto brightness is off

May be a samsung thing because it doesn't do it on cm7.

if your on cm7 or miui theres a free widget called "brightness widget" or something that is really useful
I am running Serendipity 6.3 and it works for me too, I think it works reguardless of the launcher

Works for me to!!
It's a Touchwiz feature. It has been there since forever. It's strange they don't mention it anywhere in the quickstart guides or anything because I use it daily.
Honestly on cm7 just put a brightness switch in your notification bar.

This is nice. Thanks for bringing it to my attention. Now I can save 4x1 by getting rid of the power control widget

HTC music

So I was trying to change the HTC music to the sense 2.0 version and after switching it just force closed every time I opened it. So when I attempted to switch back to the original it also did not work! So if someone could link me to one the will work it would be extremely helpful!! I'm running skyraider 4.0

i'd say you have to restore a nandroid i tried doing soemthing similar replacing the htc_ime and it wouldn;t install the original back so i would just restore a nandroid.
Well isn't it possible just to put it in a .zip and reinstall it? Because I've seen others with the HTC music and the widget worked but the app force closed when I opened it

I would replace the htc music apk, with another. I used the one from the nothing special rom. You can replace it with a file explorer with root access (be sure to change permissions), a zip if you know how or through adb.

I've already tried replacing through root explorer multiple times and the app just doesn't show up at all after that and I know nothing about adb. So I'm honestly really stuck at this point

same thing happened to me. I had to restore a Nan backup. If you are using SR4.0 I recommend trying the Google 3.0 leaked player. Its free, looks way better, plays perfect, the only thing missing from it, compared to stock, is the album art on the lock screen. It does not have lock screen controls BUT since you are using SR4.0 you can add the lock screen option in 4.0 to work with this player. I havent used stock for over a month, and wont go back until SR4.1 with the updated music player included.
You can find the app in the Android Development and Hacking forum here on XDA or just google search it.
But I would love to know why we can't run 2.0!!!! Been trying to get it for a while now.

You can't run sense 2.0 music widget because it is dependent of a sense 2.0 framework which sr4 doesn't have.

[App] Sense 3.0 Lock Screen

For those of you who like/love the lock screen of Sense 3.0 then this app is for you. Its called Agile Lock and it has tons of options/settings for things such as changing the font of the lock screen, of course being able to have the 4 app shortcuts on the lockscreen just like Sense 3.0, and much more. I spoke to the dev/one of the devs behind this masterpiece (Bo Zhang) and he seems pretty cool and he said if I/we have any ideas to help improve this app then feel free to email him @ [email protected].
This app can be found in the Android Market by typing in "Agile Lock". There is a free version and a paid version, but I definitely recommend buying the paid version.

Yea its a nice app but it definitely wont work with cm which sucks cuz I really dig the app I tryed disabling cm lockscreen twice it was a. No go probably a good app for froyo or ota based roms

Why doesn't it work? Try emailing Bo and tell him. I'm pretty sure he'll make it work. He seems very understanding. I emailed him about 2 ideas and he said one of the ideas will be implemented in the next release and the other will be in the one after that. I just finish emailing him. He's awake!
Edit: I just caught on to what you said. Sounds like its an issue with CM7. Maybe you can contact one of the devs and ask them how to make it work. They should be more than willing to make it work since CM is about personalization.

Did you restore specifically for this app or you just like the stock rom? I'm on the stock rom also and I personally don't have any issues with it. I honestly must of had one random reboot in opposed to 5-10 on Froyo.

restored to try the app out but i will say cm is my home but on the other hand stock ota is imo pretty effin fast ,it might be the same kernel build (number) as froyo, its not the same kernel if u think about it tho u know? u cant use fauxs stock lg kernel on it and i know its gb, but i think they did things to it cuz its definitely the fastest rom out. u touch and it goes, so idk i might give this a shot now that kingdavid63 has a nice theme for it and this lockscreen its pretty sweet

I agree. I love the stock rom minus not having the LG camera and the radio needs to be updated. Places where I used to have signal I now do not have signal at all.

The dev did say the first time you start the app it should be a little slow. Do a restart and you should be fine. The app works fast for me.

Love having the sense 3.0 lockscreen, however I have a quick question. I'm on CM7 and i have it applied but the CM7 lockscreen still appears also. I looked in system/apps but did not see a lockscreen apk. How can I disable the CM7 lockscreen?

XDA member Sarni84 mentioned that same issue. I'm on the non rooted Gingerbread OTA so I can't check right now plus I'm at work, but when I get home I can extract the CM7 file to my computer and search through it. In the meanwhile go to the CM7 posting and see if anyone has found a solution or can find a solution. I usually get home around 5-6pm Eastern.

Thanks, I wish I created it. The benefit about this lockscreen is that you still maintain the speed of Gingerbread or Froyo and the beauty of Sense in your lockscreen.

Ya I've tried disabling through cm7 settings with the power notification setting, and through no lockscreen app from the market. Still a no go... I get both lockscreens no matter what. If the issue is fixed that'd be super sweet! I love the lockscreen!!! So nice and pretty

No problem. I found it to be too much of a hassle personally. Nice app though. Maybe future versions will be compatible with CM7-based ROMs.

Something weird just happened when I installed CM - it installed all my apps for me

Hi
Just flashed into CM.
I don't know how, but it auto downloaded all my apps for me!!!
This has never happen to me before (even thought I have flashed like 10 roms - with vibrant and MIUI).
HOW DID IT DO THAT????
Also, since now I have 3 launchers, I wanted to ask which is the "stock" launcher that CM comes with, and whether I should use it or is it just based on what I like

that probably happened cuz you enabled Google's auto sync which reloads all your apps contacts and so forth.
Default launcher for cm7 is adw.launcher personally I like go launcher better.

It's a feature of every third-party app launcher I've used. I've used Go Launcher EX for months, and I didn't realize that Samsung took it out of TouchWiz.
I just downloaded go launcher and still cant set multi screen wallpaper. What is going on?
Edit: i can set a portriat image...what about landscape like old touchwiz setting?
Sent from my SCH-I510 using XDA
I've tried a few of the launchers and ended up going back to touchwiz to get the stock notification number overlay on icons such as email and messaging. I now miss setting multi-home screen wallpaper and watching it scroll as the homepages move.
Since Samsung removed it from the latest version of touchwiz can i get it back by loading an older version of the apk from an older version of the firmwear... Say ep4d?
