Can you provide screenshots to elaborate please?
I cant see how a screen shot would help explain the problem.
I have had the phone about a week and have tried most functions, they all seem to work fine.
The ONLY fault seems to be the stock power widget.
I understand the widget is supposed to have 5 customisable functions i.e Wifi, gps, etc toggle switches
But I only get a grey rectangle with 5 blanks.
I assume its a corrupt firmware. (Virgin Media)
I have done hard and factory resets.
Please advise where and how I can reload the stock firmware?

I was only trying to help man... because i wanted to see what you were talking about. No issues... if you feel this is unnecessary, i'll leave you to it.
Cheers.
Have you tried using recovery to reset the entire phone? It should reinstall the os for you.

I use widgetlocker for a nice custom lockscreen on my Desire and would like to do the same on the TAB but can't get it to remove the similar Samsung lockscreen - when I press the power button or the device times out, I am greeted with the widgetlocker lockscreen and then the Samsung one is underneath?!
I've sent a mail to the developer but wondered if anyone else was using it and had managed to overcome this somehow...
If I hear more from the developer I'll post it here too.
Had the same issue. First time I chose the root bypass of five second thing, it got rid of the stock lockscreen, but after a reboot it came back reguardless of what I do

Kevin the developer got back to my email. All you need to do is go to Buttons and Inputs and select Easy Wake Mode. I've done that and the Samsung one doesn't come up
LockScreen Doesnt Appear FullScreen
I have purchased and Install WidgetLocker on my Galaxy Tab.
But the lockscreen does not appear in full screen, guess it is shrt of 1 row
Any Idea how to fix it? Attached pic for your reference (Please focus Towards the right side of the screen)
You can take a screenshot of the tab by pressing back + power. That picture is huuuuuuuge.

Sorry just notice the trick to capture a screenshot. By the way any chance to get the problem fixed?
it might be cause by the broken image of the 'bar' inside the apk. so far all the version of widgetlocker i use on my tab did not have this problem.

I have reinstall it but the problem is still there when I used rotary or Sense UI lockscreen. Appreciate some answer.
Is it because I'm using launcherProPlus with my SGT? An my Tab is not rooted, is it because of that?
I have wigetlocker on my tab and looks and works fine. I haven't had any problems with it.
Rahuldave-
Same issue here...emailed dev, said he was working on update for the Tab. FYI

Thought I'm alone. I have got reply from Kevin TeslaCoil mentioning the same. Thanks
Also still having some issues myself. Rooted with z4root and checked easy wake mode but i occasionally get a message saying widgetlocker has been given superuser access and then the stock lockscreen will show up again when i next turn the screen off and on again. It'll be fine then for a couple of hours and then do it again. Hopefully the dev will get to the bottom of this. Might fire him a quick email again.

Hello All,
First of all - sorry for my english
Secound - I'm new in Android, my previous device was HTC Touch HD (aka Blackstone) - so I'm a little used to WinMo 6.5
I bought my Sensation last wednesday. It is a stock S-ON RL device (info about ROM is in my signature).
I have non-root'ed device.
Until yesterday (saturday) everything was O.K.
I set up a lockscreen with weather and one custom button (pointed to task manager - built one, not downloaded from Android Market).
Today morning i noticed issue with lockscreen.
There is no buttons above lock ring (any of them), and there is no weather shown.
I did soft-reset my device several times and that doesn't help.
When i go to "home screen" => "personalization" => "lockscreens" => and select (screen 1a, 2a) any of them, then return to "Home Screen" and press POWER button (to activate lockscreen) and again POWER button to see actual lockscreen (screen 3a) - I still don't see any of the four buttons (and weather)...
What's wrong? Anyone have ideas?
I don't see any setting, which could disable the four buttons....
If I wrote something ununderstandable, please let me know
Have I done something wrong? Why yesterday everything was OK? Could something be wrong during night? :/
Sorry for poor quality of screens, my work-phone is prehistorical
Any help would be appreciated
Thanx in advance

At last I found this problem caused by Titanium.Backup When I use Titanium.Backup to restore my system data.The problem appear.
I hope these information can help you.
Had the same issue, solved.
Run the Setup App again
Keep clicking next
Turn screen off you should have the apps and widget back
If this works, pass it around on other forums

Just discovered a very annoying bug with this new OTA update. I've had it for about an hour, and everything else has been good except for this.
With the lockscreen, my first shortcut icon (Phone Dialer) suddenly disappeared. I have no clue how to get it back.
When I try to re-assign it as a shortcut, it doesn't appear on the shortcuts menu.
I'm 1,000% positive that I did not erase the dialer icon in the lockscreen edit menu.
Anyways, this is just a heads up for some of you TmoUSA people who just got the OTA update.
And if anybody has any suggestions on how to prevent/fix this, or get back my phone dialer shortcut, I'd really appreciate it.
I got the phone dialer and it did not disappear from lock screen after the update.
I think this may be an isolated incident. But wow none the less. I would suggest a wipe brother.
Wow, that sucks to know that it's just me
Not that I would wish this problem on any of you, just kinda bothers me because I factory-resetted just yesterday
It's not just you. I still have the phone on my first button of the lock screen, but if I go to edit the lockscreen buttons, the first one is now blank, and Phone is not an option in the list of available apps to assign.
As long as I don't change it, it's good...
The EVO 3D had this problem with 2.3.3 at launch. HTC sent out a minor update to fix. Expect a minor update in the near future.
I wonder if I should just install a phone dialer app from the market and see if that can be a workaround.
What do you guys think?

If you save any changes from that screen you'll lose the icon.
Really, yikes. I think I like the 4 I have there now so I'll leave it alone for the time being.
1st - Web
2nd - Phone
3rd - Gmail
4th - Messages
With all these issues I'm seeing I think ima just stick to leedroid or stock rooted. I'm playing around on my myTouch before I sale it.

I just got the update and yes, while I still have the Phone icon on my lockscreen, if I go to the Settings page for the screen the position is blank and "Phone" isn't an option in the list of programs to launch.
It looks like birgertime's work-around may be what you need, until HTC (hopefully) releases a fix for this.
In the mean time, I'm not going to change my lockscreen icons (not that I frequently do anyway).
Not just you. Same thing happened to me. Just got the update today.

i had the same issue, the phone (dialer) missing from menu and lock screen. I downloaded the shortcut from the link above and it worked. Thanx for the shortcut.
I just got the update and I don't have any issues with my lock screen. maybe try to change in your lock screen htc gives us like 6 to choose from 'm using the 1 that shows status updates from facebook and such.
also my wifi is working a lot better I still lose signal when I grip it in landscape mode but it doesn't lose signal completely and I can still use wi-fi even in landscape mode holding it with both hands
The workaround works great! Thanks for the help, everybody.
I was just reading this thread when I noticed that I had the same bug after changing the lockscreen icons. Will flashing a ROM over the update help?
Hi,
Since two days I'm a happy and proud Note owner, but there's one thing, that makes me really go crazy:
I installed the program "Widgetlocker", because the standard lockscreen is quite broing. It actually works quite good, but sometimes the standard lockscreen still apears. Not instead of the widgetlocker, but additional. So I always have to unlock two lockscreens.
Does anybody else has got this problem? And how can I fix it?
I tried to find a solution in different forums and in the program configuration, without sucess!
Thanks for help!
Edit: The error apears mostly when there's a pop-up (gtalk e.g.) or when I plug in the charger....
I turned on root helper and home helper in settings, that fixed it for me. I'm on Stock Rooted XXKK9 if that helps.

Hi, chrcad,
Finally, the someone else who's been having the same problem.
It IS really irritating. Sometimes it's OK, but other times it just comes on.
Have turned off the lock screen option, but same thing happens. Someone please help!

My widgetlocker works fine. Been using it since day 1. Hmm.. Sorry. Not sure how to help.
chrcad,
Your problem seems related to the fact that Android is not having enough memory left ans simply closes "useless" apps and considers that WL is part of them. To prevent that to happen, simply check in advanced settings the "refuse to suspend WL" box and Android will look another application than WL to close

Thanks @ everybody for the help, but unhappily it's still not working properly.
The problem always apperas, when the phone's sleeping and a gTalk message comes in.... but ONLY, when the gTalk ppop-up is activated......
Any (more) idea?
you are leaving it running all the time aren't you?
I use to have the same problem, very rarely but it was still annoying. I have put a lock on widgetlocker so if I ever close all programs, widgetlocker is still running. It's not happened since but it's only been a few days so I'll see.

Some pop-ups cause this if they're designed to appear underneath the stock lockscreen rather than dismiss it.
For now:
1) Easy Wake Mode disables the system lockscreen
2) WL Settings > Long-press volume down for Experimental > Aggressive Dismiss stock lockscreen. This should work, but it's not well tested yet so it's off by default.
Hi. So recently with my oneplus one I have been having issues (location services not working, text messages not sending/relieving, and mobile data acting up a bit). I decided to perform a factory reset because I figured this would probably be the best way to just start over fresh and possibly resolve some of the issues. Most of the issues were fixed, however I was incredibly disappointed when I went into my settings. Half of the options that I could once modify before I reset the device were now gone! To name a few: the notification bar brightness slider, the vibrator intensity setting, the hardware button brightness, the customized screen colors, and the customized lock screen shortcuts..and that's just to name a few of the important ones. I'm wondering what's going on! Is there any way to get these settings back on my oneplus one? Has anyone else had this issue? Is it because of the cyanogen fallout? It's really frustrating. I didn't realize how much I took those amazing settings for granted. I would have just dealt with the issues if I'd known this would happen. Let me know if anyone has any idea..i would be so so appreciative.
Don't know if its the same thing but there is an advance mode in about phone in settings that allows more modifications to be made.

Are you sure that you signed in with the same email as before? Mine were all saved under the email that I used. Otherwise I'm not sure. Sorry! In the future I'd always recommend downloading Dropbox and turning on the automatic camera upload synching so if anything ever happens you'll still have them forever.
flash via ADB?
