flyscreen has a calendar widget? i think
what about using Widget Locker?
not smooth as i want. sometimes u can still see original lock screen :<
widgetlocker with smoothcalender widget (Y)
I skipped the installation of widgetlocker because it asked for permission to use the phone... it seems weird... What phone calls should make such an application?
Any other app does the same?
tnx

All apps that support older Android devices older than 1.6 automatically have this permission, and even those not meant for devices that old often still have it, usually because developers didn't know or were lazy - here's more information

Because you can add shortcuts to the screen to make calls I believe. The app itself obviously isn't making any calls.
WidgetLocker + Android Agenda Widget is my favorite.

yeah this is what i'd do also.
Another vote for Widget Locker. I use that with Pure Calendar widget to get my appointments on the lock screen.
can i use WL for my mytouch3g andriod 1.6?i dont want to root my phone,.
You don't need to be rooted to run WidgetLocker. I'm using it on an unrooted Evo with the pure calendar agenda widget.
A new widget came out called calendr that is pretty sweet. On the clean though if you like that type of thing.

I like Android but i hate the widgets and the Homescreen, i don't need them. So i like the apple surface. Is there a launcher/hack to show always the app surface/drawer/app depot? I use.the go launcher and if it's possible i will use it further more.
Thx a lot!!!

Why not just resize your homescreen grid to hold more apps and put all your apps on scrollable homescreens? With adw you can even make the dock disappear all together to make more room for app icons.

For.example the go launcher has a perfect app depot with recently used apps and running apps in tab style thats what i love and want.

Use ADW or LauncherPro and change settings so it won't close App Drawer when you open a new app.
Check if MIUI is available for your device, its does not have a app draw.

Lol then why not just take the fraction of a second d to open the app drawer? Lol doesn't take long. Or just place ur apps on the home screen

Just get a ducking iPhone. Who doesn't like Widgets? This post almost seems kind of trolly Polly if you ask me.
as said above .. Miui is pretty similar to iphone .. no Apps Drawer .. everything is on the main screen ... and its very fast ..

I suggest the same. also set number of home screens to (1). plus since you don't like the home screen, change the settings so that when you press the home button it pulls up your app drawer.

@fifarunnerr: Can you tell me the exactly option?
@kylec: LOL
@Mylenthes: Didn´t you read my first post? I like android, but i like the iphone appearance and the GoLauncher has additionally a super Tab-styled surface --> I have the Galaxy Tab with Android 2.3.3, The GoLauncher installed and now i want reduce it to the Drawer/App Depot
@Nexus 4G: The same like fifarunnerr. There isn´t a option except "Open/Close the App drawer" but i want only "Open the app drawer".
Thx a lot
Miui, if available

Dude seriously you are retarded if you have a large screen tab and can't figure this out with the multitude of options at your disposal. This is either a troll thread from a bored individual or you really are clueless. Even after members here give you seven different options you just keep on asking?

"Dude", that's not very nice...
@OP- I'm not sure you really have an option... Even if u switched to miUI, u would have several homescreens instead of one app drawer. Your going to have to sacrifice. and yes the open/close app drawer is the option I were referring too. I've never seen a rom/preference to completely remove your home screens... Sry bredrin )-:

There is a launcher in the Market called vLauncher that does exactly what you're asking for.

I've been using this, it keeps losing apps. It's better than nothing, but it's not as good as the MIUI Launcher.

I have lost an app when moving it to the trash can by mistake and tapping Cancel. Goto Settings, Applications and force stop it. Then restart vLauncher and the app should be back. I would like to see the developer pick this app up and do some updating.

Tapping it starts up the apps.....
ive just tried and mine works fine ?? im running everything the same as you.
1. Could do with a restart maybe?
2. Try removing the battery and see if that helps? Sometimes my screen doesnt respond to long presses.?
Tried that^ Still not working.
There's an option in ADW to lock or unlock the desktop. Sounds like it's locked right now. Locking prevents things like having your dock icons slip out every time you flip up the hidden dockbar but makes it so you can't do any alterations.

Try our "Ripple Lock" from the market. It has options and you can enable battery percentage

WidgetLocker is awesome, and you can put your battery percentage right on the lockscreen. Totally worth the money.
I'm loving MiLocker and it's free in ghe Market. There are also hundreds of different lockscreens that can be loaded into it.
Attached a pic of my Lockscreen using MiLocker.
Yup, that's what my lockscreen looks like. Swipe the center down to unlock. Left side to open the Dialer and Right side to open SMS.
I love milocker myself tons of lock screens to choose from.

Is there a way to either remove the language on the milocker cos there isn't a setting where you can choose your preferred language for date and time. Not hating on Chinese, but I'd prefer everything to be consistently in english. Thx

You can edit the lockscreen, it's a zip without the zip extension.
Or keep looking, there are a lot of English only lockscreens.
Look for one called Ash Bolt. I'll list more when I get home.

Perfect thx. As far as editing goes, what tools are needed? I'll also look into the suggested one.

Here are a couple. The one named FivePoint_eng will show up in MiLocker as Testing. I never went back in to change it.
Do not rename, just copy each one to the MIUI/theme folder on the sdcard.
Ash Bolt comes with it's own wallpaper, but you can change it in the MiLocker menu. Five Points does not have it's own wallpaper.

You need to unzip the .mtz file, then unzip the lockscreen file, inside you'll find a file called manifest.xml. That's the one that you'll need to edit to make it English only.
When you unzipped the mtz there was a file called description.xml, that's where the name of the lockscreen is located plus someother info.
Then just zip each back up working in reverse.

Update: okay I have the testing theme set and running well. Thx again for those. As for doing the language edit, failed miserably with that. I guess I just need to get schooled a little on zipping those files back into .mtz file formats. The couple of times I tried it, the theme doesn't show up on my SD card. Back to the drawing board for me.

Go Locker is free and has a lot of themes available. I use it (I've even made a couple themes for the market...er..."play store"). And I think you may be able to use it without needing to have go launcher as your default home. As long as you set it up while using go launcher/ go locker, you might be able to switch to whatever other launcher you prefer. I may be mistaken since I haven't tried it myself (I use go launcher), but friends with samsung phones have tried it and can use it with other launchers.

I like that one too.
I like being able to change which shortcuts I have available and have more than 3 or 4. That's why I made my own that has 4 app shortcuts and the home unlock. If anyone wants to try it out and let me know what they think, it's free on the market here:

I think what you need to do is set the "Go Switch Widget" as a Device Administrator. Go to menu>settings>location & security>Select device administrators and then check the go switch widget.
The stock moto locker should not come up (except for when your phone boots up from a shutdown/restart). Let us know if that's what fixes it.
Also, just as a side note, make sure when you install a different theme for Go Locker that you do NOT hit "open" after the install. It will give you an error. After you install a theme, you just need to select it from the Go Locker menu. I've had a few friends complain that a new theme doesn't work, but it's because they didn't read the directions .
hmm..i can't find "Go Switch Widget" under device administrator.

You might need to download/install it then. The only reason I did is because it told me to. Strange that you didn't get the same message.
If you don't mind, try it out and report back.
Lock Screen Opinion
I would have to say Go Locker. Has a lot of themes IMO and if use the pin to get into the phone don't even have to type the enter key. I just want my phone unlocked faster.
found this cool lockscreen Active Lock Screen on play store.. its pretty neat, got loads of customisations for shortcuts and also a few themes..
