I've been seeing screens with these custom lockscreens. How do I go about getting some of these? Do I have to create them myself? Sorry if I sound like a total newbie. I'm probably gonna be stuck with my Hero for another year because of Sprint's changes. Can someone point me in the right direction?

Most people use widget locker in order to get a custom lock screen. It's a paid app though.

I'm on my phone at work right now, so I can't search for any links. But currently I'm running aospCmod 3/26. If you could post different lockscreens with screens that would be great. I'm just getting bored with the vanilla lockscreen. Thanks om advance for any help.

now if you just want an alternate lockscreen there is a few lockbot is the best but i will say its very laggy and half the time your system lockscreen overrides it
I really just want something that actually replaces the stock screen. Whenever up tried using lockscreen apps they tend to be buggy and... like you said, the stock screen overrides the app. I just want something flashable that overrides the stock screen, not the other way around.
I haven't had time to search for anything but will try tomorrow.

I've not seen any actual lock screen replacements. Cm7 has about 5 different styles but i haven't seen any replacement lock screens in a while since everyone was putting vanilla lock screens on sense
¿dpeeps74?
word, using widget locker is legit, paid for app but its great!! I have 3 different widgets on the screen and it's only not worked like once but i think it was a phone issue not the actual program.
Hey guys
I saw this on XDA TV, not sure if some of you have seen the Sense 3.0 lock screen, I think the effect is pretty cool. Is pretty much the Sense Lock screen as an app, and it works on any android device. The app is called Agile Lock.

Thank you so much for posting this! I love this phone but I can't stand the lock screen! I have been wondering why the ROM developers have not included some way of changing the lock screen, at least back to the vanilla Android lock.

You could try widgetlocker. It has the iPhone lock screen.

There is an app somewhere that replicates the iphone lock screen. Used to use it on my old phone. So don't have the apk. Search a bit and you'll find it

What about "Lock 2.0"? Haven't used it in forever (coincidentally, it was the first app I ever bought for Android - lol), but it was specifically made to have the iPhone style locking, as well as give it some personal flare.
Yea that's the one he's using. The screen is compressed and the slider bar is really long and skinny. I've tried it without any luck. I now use "no lock" and just hit any button and am on my main screen, I never really saw the use of pressing a button just to do another task..

I do this, except I use a passcode. I just wish android/cm7 will release a lockscreen I like. Rotary did it for me for a while, but it become almost too complicated for me. I didn't like that if I used it to change the sound, i have to wait for the thing to finish rotating. I just want something I slide and it unlocks, but the default sliding tabs in my opinion are ugly. I liked sense's lockscreen, but the cm7 replication doesn't do it for me. looks too... circular
Widget Locker is what you're looking for
I've made PyroIce my new Daily, and we all know it has some bugs. So I thought I'd start a thread to help Unclutter the fourm.
Here's the first thing I've found out.
- Wi-Fi Networks that are WEP/PSK locked can be connected to without having to Manualy put the name in.
Nova Launcher is a Great ICS Replacement Launcher. It can be downloaded from the Market. Or found on XDA as a flashable Zip. That makes it a system app, and allows widgets to be accessed from the launcher.
It has homescreen effects, drawer effects. Custom Grid Sizes, and all widgets are resizeable. Its the ADW of ICS, and is better than CM9's Launcher for 4.0.1.

to be honest, its a great rom. for people that know how to deal with beta roms. if your lookin for a grief free rom, id use another one. i use this but i dont mind the small issues and can deal with them. the user interface is ICS, so the same as ICS yeah? same and gingerbread.. no, lil different. more user friendly i think.

Good, the only reason I won't root my girls phone is cause I don't wanna fix it.
Does anyone know if you can unlink the notification volume and ringer volume in ICS?
Sent from my myTouch_4G_Slide using Tapatalk
first off, i think this rom is simply great, considering that ics is on very few devices right now, and that our phone is a bit slow in general with development (nothing against all the devs on this phone, cuz what they have made are all really good)
two questions:
does anyone know why the camcorder app is limited to 720p recording? it's definitely not a big issue, but this camera is considered to be one of the best, seems like a shame to waste it.
also, any way to fix the htc dialer showing up in the call and to answer a call you have to unlock first?
how's everyone's battery life doing? mine's much better than when i had cm7 on it
I was looking at 1080p but for some strange reason libstagefright camerasource detects that 1080p is not available. Coudlnt binary hack that, and no idea why that happens.
You can use fullscreen caller id to let you receive calls without unlocking, or can use widgetlocker from market with security set off.

I'm running PyroIce Sense and I cant view any flash websites. Anyone else having this problem? I've tried re-installing Flash, Dolphin (wont work on stock browser as well), and reflashed the rom.
Any ideas?

If i enter full screen browser hangs. if i zoom in, it will play, but it's very choppy with elements of my wallpaper mixed in, sometimes it's the notifications bar that draws itself into the flash. It's very odd.

So.............. I can't even remember how many people have asked me to look into getting the ticker "call" screen to work when you are using different launchers... Well, I (edit: FINALLY) took a look an hour ago, and I figured it out Right now I have the modifications incorporated into this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1061883, which i personally LOVE! But yeah, i Didz it
I could probably get it to work with other launchers too, but for now, i'm done... hahaha... I highly suggest checking out that launcher though... It supports samsung widgets (because it is based off of Touchwiz 4.0 launcher ) and works pretty nicely I have a weird obsession with the weather clock we have, so this launcher satisfies that, and more
Alright guys, download time
Install this to the system/app folder (after renaming it to just TW4Launcher )
Download (APK): http://www.mediafire.com/?8jzcxc1p3og69zl
Ok, add this to my WTF list! Lol If I'm running this launcher still get the call options on the large screen. Then, if I switch back to Go launcher, the calls show up in the ticker(Awesome Btw!) . I've gone back and forth multiple times and rebooted... Always the same.
Sent from my GB'ed I400 Continuum
Lol, that's normal! Even with the stock touchwiz launcher the call doesn't show up in the ticker when within the launcher itself... it's when you go to another app that it pops up the reasoning, I assume, is because you are doing important things while in different apps, but when you are home, it's okay to get a more intrusive call method because you aren't doing anything the problem was that the ticker call screen wasn't coming up ever when you didn't load the stock launcher
Sent from my SCH-I400 using xda premium
Lolol!! Yes everyone, I am a DA! And I thought my work around was pretty slick: set up a tasker task to run tw4 for 30sec at boot, then I have the ticker call all the time.
Anyway, love this... However it works! Lol

Not asking you to do this, just asking if it's possible... Could this and your "ticker 4 button return to call screen" (ec09) be made into a stand alone app: ie, not tied to a launcher? I'm assuming it's gotta go with the launcher, but as I proved above, don't know much about this stuff
Sent from my GB'ed I400 Continuum
Hello Trailblazer!
It was me. I am the guilty party. I was the one clamoring for this feature all along.
I had an invisible shortcut set to launch TW Launcher any time I happened to reboot my phone, and that was my way of ensuring the call screen function would be there.
Alas, the lure of ICS and JB drew me away from my Continuum to a used Fascinate on eBay, but I still have the Continuum and have made it my kids' phone as a VOIP phone / entertainment device.
Haven't visited this forum in a while...crazy to see what has changed since my last stop. Gingerbread? Your call screening fix? I might have to do some flashing!
Spear...
Are u using google voice + voip?
How is your kids device set up to call etc?
Sent from my SPH-M580BST using Tapatalk 2
Yes. But that's not the whole story.
I use an app called Groove IP. It integrates into Android so that you can make it the default app for outgoing call requests. But it requires a Google Voice account.
So GV is the texting app and the conduit for phone calls in and out. Had to change a setting in my Google Voice account for incoming calls to come to the phone.
Pretty strange still to get texts from my 6 year old when I'm at work.
That's how I have it set up. Just was wondering ...
Yeah my son loves to text when he gets a chance with my phone since he lost his lol.
He beat modernwarfare 2 in under 20 hours, his eigth bday weekend last week.

roaddog665: Well, to answer your question, I incorporated the "ticker 4 button return to call screen" feature into gingerbread, so that's not a problem anymore and for making the "call screen" stand-alone... It could probably be done, yeah... However, if I was going to do that, then the even when you are on the launch itself the call screen in the ticker will show up... Basically all what the code in the launcher does is tells the ticker when to show the call screen, so when it is active, it won't show, and when it is closed, it will! I guess that's not a bid deal, but I don't really know performance wise how well that would work... That's not really on my list of things to do though, because instead I can just incorporate my patch, haha

Thanks for the info! The work around I've been using shows the ticker screen even on the home screen, but it doesn't work all the time. lol I asked about the standalone just because I'm trying to learn about this stuff...but it has a pretty big learning curve for someone with absolutely no programing experience. I was happy getting CRT to work by myself without breaking something!

Oh no Holo Launcher worked fine on me. the touchwiz 4.5 had a few bugs.. But not a problem. Ciscogee's theme works fine with me with any launcher with no problems.
Did you guys just regularly install it, or did you put the apk in /system/app ? Just curious... Because it works great for me, ahha
and I tried doing the mods for the Holo Launcher, and porting it worked just fine... It just the fact that I had to resign the apk that was the problem, and that was something I didn't want to deal with I'll do it eventually, ahha
