Hi, i just was looking for themes for the lockscreen, but no results... I've only found apps that make my phone slower and more laggy when unlocking...
So where could i find mods to change the appearance of lockscreen dor root users????
If they dont exist, a new thread for new mods could be created...
EDIT: tried "lockbot pro" + "no lock" combination... Works very very very well without any lags... No errors, no dual lockscreen and can put some themes (ics theme too ).... Its very inntegrated with the os.... Works exacatly as stock lockscreen... But cannot use widgets... Ahhhhhh
I use widgetlocker. Slows the phone a bit but still fast
No, i have discovered lockbot pro.... It run so smooth... As i am using ics theme ,i have cose the ics theme for lockbot... Let me see it how it runs....
However im not looking for that... Im looking for a mod, to modify the stock lockscreen, because its the only one really integrated with the OS
Edited: uau, its works very well, but still laggy ...nothing like stock lockscreen xdxd
I'm quite interested in this too, I used widgetlocker for a while, and loved having pacman to pull across the screen to unlock, but if u want to have any form of security on ur phone, a lock pattern or pin number u have to unlock with widgetlocker, then slide the stock unlocker, and THEN do ur pattern or code, its a pain in the arse!!
I've been playing with a HTC Desire HD lately, and I love the lock screen on that, where u pull a ring to the centre of the screen, or to the thing u wanna do, like camera, phonem sms, etc.
maybe this can help you.
install no locker from market. open it and select lockscreen disabled then run widgetlocker and there you go. no lags or double locks

Have you tried to make a theme for just the lockscreen using UOT? Try it here... UOT Kitchen You can do an entire theme or just pick the thing you want to theme out. Not sure exactly what your going for, but using UOT you can change the appearance of the lock tabs, color, even the icons on the lock sliders. Enjoy!
Have you tried GoLocker?

I just installed a vanilla rotary dial lock screen on my Hero. Whenever I select add wallpaper, I get the window that first ask if I want to apply wallpaper to the Sense UI or the lock screen.
Is there anyway to remove the lock screen option?
I know with CM6, if I want to remove the live wallpaper option, I just remove LivewallpaperPicker.apk.
Is there anything similar for the Sense UI?

don't think theres a way to remove that option.. its a lot more built into the lockscreen as oppose to the live wallpaper example.. (when u installed the vanilla lockscreen did u remove the sense ui lockscreen or just move it?)
also, for future reference, there is a Q&A forum, as this is the themes and apps forum - specifically for posting themes and apps..
I downloaded the Inspired Ace rom which I love and has increased my battery life like I didn't think was possible. My question is the lockscreen. How do I change the sense screen to the standard froyo or gingerbread type that slides left to right and allows you to change ringer on/off?
Widget locker. That's what I use.
You can remove or rename htclockscreen.apk and it should show up automatically. Not 100% sure one the apk name but I think I am remembering close.
Located in /system/app
note: if you use the above process (deleting the apk) your alarm will not work.
Widgetlocker looks pretty cool, I think I might have to check that out.
Widget locker is the best. You can make multiple unlock bars, widgets on the lock screen, change the lock bar style, etc. Absolutely worth the cost.
I guess my question is how do you use the add ons in the rom. It has the option while downloading to enable the htc lockscreen but I want to use the stock froyo slider that I'm guessing it also has. How do I change the lockscreen? I would post this in the rom forum but I can't yet because of my number of posts.

I'm running CM7 right now and all I really missed was the sense 3.0 customizable lockscreen. I figured in the meantime I could use widgetlocker and at least have a customizable lockscreen. TO MY SURPRISE, they have updated the sliders to include a honeycomb circle slider and a customizable Sense 3.0 lockscreen slider that works perfectly!!!
Anyway I just wanted to share with all of you because it's the perfect solution if you're ever missing the 3.0 lockscreen with shortcuts - now you can use it on any ROM!

i Noticed that the ram usage by the app increases overtime.
for me it went up to 100mb, which is suprising coz i juz had the ics lock and clock on it.
had to kill and restart and then it starts at 15mb.
Is this a bug? contacted the dev but no reply.

I'm also using CM7 but I can't seem to get the WidgetLocker sliders to stick (Menu -> Add -> Custom Slider). It always goes back to the [android] slider after I click 'Save and Exit'. How did you manage to get the Sense 3.0 lockscreen to stay?
Edit: Never mind, got it. If you long press the Unlock button in Tool Mode, and choose Edit, the changes you make will stick.
Edit 2: So beautiful ;_;
Glad you got it working. I uninstalled it but then reinstalled it cause I thought it was killing my battery - turns out it was the CM7 kernel itself. I installed the virtuous V2 kernel and everything is running smoothly!
GoLocker is new one and it has some cool stuff too. It is also free.
just wondering if anybody using widgetlocker knows how to get the Shutter button to go straight to camera instead of first unlocking widgetlocker, and then going to camera (meaning I have to hold the shutter button for longer than I do without widgetlocker).
I just read up on GoLocker and it'll let you access the camera app directly with the hardware button. I'm not sure how to do it with WidgetLocker. I like the GoLocker pics but I hate how if you want themes you have to download all of them from the market and they show up as apps... Just me being picky I guess, though.

I am using GoLocker and I have not found that it lets you access camera directly, however I am using a screen called "Four Key" which has shortcuts for camera, phone & SMS. It also shows next alarm (including from alarm clock +), has option to let you use volume even when locked (good for quick silent/vibrate w/o unlocking), and also has option to use Genius Button w/o unlocking.

Hi,
Do you mean lockscreen or homescreen?
Look in the market for "wp clock design live wallpaper"
Yes I meant lockscreen.
Will look for the wp clock design
Thank you
If its lock screen it would be harder, but depending on the ROM you can find various designs closest to the one you're looking for.
Ya lockscreen for sure, been looking through the forum and the playstore for hours and still nothing.
I'm on ViperS ROM
It looks to me a homescreen. If so it is minimalistic text

Yep I can find homescreen like that but not lockscreen
Maybe Widgetlocker will do the trick. It replaces your lockscreen, and allows you to add widgets to it.
Thanks ridder215215,
Looks like that is going to be as close as I can get so far. Widgetlocker has security issues.
hy Pamela,
install this rom if you stuck on bootloop read this
after install open settings > lockscreen
ripkid666,
That ROM has looked interesting for awhile. At this time I need more stability as a daily driver.
I really dont want to switch ROMS just for the lockscreen.
Thanks
Hello All,
Just checking in for possible developments
I have found some success with this setup:
1. Install Widgetlocker
2. Install TypoClock
Use the TypoClock as a widget on the Widgetlocker screen
Im wanting to edit my lockscreen kind of like we already edit our homescreen. In particular im looking to get my agenda and a snapshot of the weather on the lockscreen. Is this possible? If so how, oh and im not looking to use a launcher as i like the layout and feel of touch wiz. Thanks
You can't without root. Some manufacturers (e.g. HTC) will have weather info etc. on their lock screens natively, but Samsung doesn't unfortunately.
Well thats stupid! Okay option two/three. Any good lockscreen apps that replace existing lockscreen that dont lag? Or any launchers that sill allow me to keep my own theme and app style and layout but allow me to customize the lockscreen?

I don't know of any lock screen apps off the top of my head because I never use any, but I know they're on the Play Store, so just do a search and see which one would probably fit your needs. Also, the launcher and lock screen are two different things, so installing a custom launcher just affects the home screen and app drawer.

I tried that, and its giving me loads of issues any other suggestions? Thanks
I always used AcDisplay on my past android phones. I haven't set it up on my S7, so I don't honestly recall all the features, but I always liked it so that's a good place to start.
May just be for notifications but I really can't remember.
Try hi locker it uses the fingerprint scanner has good media and notifications has calendar and weather as well
