I am facing a display issue with the new Nexus 5 that was delivered to me yesterday. Everytime I press the power button to lock the screen, the screen flickers and switches off with an animation, similar to the 'Old TV Style' animation. Is this expected behaviour with all Nexus 5 phones, or some problem with the unit that is delivered to me?
If it is expected behaviour, is there a way to change the lock animation to something else (other than rooting)? I tried disabling the animation options in the Developer options, but it does not help. I also tried installing the 'Screen Off and Lock' app from the Playstore, which allows you to change the lock animation. However, the new animation that I select does not override the 'Old TV Style' animation. The 'Screen Off and Lock' animation displays first, followed by the default 'Old TV Style' animation.
Please help.
its normal and not changeable without root and/or a custom rom

Do you know of any app that will override this default animation? It is quite irritating....

Just download it, open a file explorer, go to it's download location (wherever you downloaded it to) and click on it. Also remember to allow installation of non-market apps in the settings. Another way would to just search for it on the market. Market link - (Free) - https://market.android.com/details?id=com.nanoha.MyLockScreen_free&feature=search_result ; (Paid) - https://market.android.com/details?id=com.nanoha.MyLockScreen&feature=search_result .
This is pretty smooth,
One thing I thought was odd was that in your setup you have an Ad. While not odd in itself, you need to make money somehow. The ad was in Chinese, or Japanese, or some other symbol language.
I'd probably be more inclined to click an ad I could read, just a heads up.

Nice lock screen app, but the short cut settings are very unstable. Sometimes they work, most times they don't...
Like This . Thank You .
Tested the free version an view minutes and bought the app. Great look screen!
I like it but the use of a lockscreen is destroyed when just a home button exits the lock.
Great job dev!

Hey dev, I have a small glitch. Using the ripple lock and the phone was in sleep mode my alarm went off. I had no way of turning the alarm off. Nothing popped up giving me the option to turn the alarm off. The phone woke up locked but that was it. I was using the stock alarm if that matters.
Thanks.

Is there a way to disable the volume buttons? Right now when the volume buttons are pushed the screen turns on and makes a beep sound
i really love ripplelock, but i have one problem:
if i put my phone in airplanemode at night (to save some battery) and turn off airplanemode at the next morning, usualy the PIN-input-screen pops up. But if i install ripple lock, the PIN-input-screen doesnt pop up, regardless of the chosen double-lockscreen method. only while system security lock is enabled, the PIN-input-screen pops up, but this way i get an double lockscreen.
The only version, which works properly for me without this issue is v2.2, evrey other version above 2.2 has the descriped bug. Thats why i stick with this version and hope this issue will be fixed soon.
(Also I would love to see that the home-button doesnt unlock anymore, while the status-bar is hidden (one of two main reasons, why i use ripple lock instead of the modded system lockscreen, which looks nearly the same except for the visible status-bar and that the lock icon functions only as a slider).)
BTW: I'm on an rooted Desire HD with cm7
Pretty cool app. Slight bugs:
1st time I had a notification written in Chinese or something. Then came up in English after I got through that one. Maybe or maybe not a bug; maybe you could ask the user 1st time setup which language to use.
2nd bug is that I came out of standby and was at the homescreen and then the lockscreen loaded up a second or two later. Maybe it's my midrange phone (Galaxy Ace) causing it to be a bit laggy.
Otherwise pretty awesome app.
I love the look of honeycomb especially the lockscreen. I've been using Ripple Lock for about 3 weeks now. So far so good. Thank you Dev!
Is there anyway to get the pull down notification screen on the lock screen if you have pin/pattern enabled?
I loved how iOS handled this, where you can see Notification Center in the lock screen but once you select a notification, you then have to unlock the device to go any further. Can this be done on Android?
BTW, I tried DashClock but it's very buggy on the N5 and does not do what I need. The pull down notification screen would work perfectly.
No this is not possible.

Thanks for the response, I guess the all mighty Andorid is not he customizable beast I was hoping it would be
Well you could just use the slide lock screen. Its not secure but the notification bar will be available.
Also there may be lock screen widgets that can show info you may be looking for like email, twitter, etc.

Wait till XPosed is compatible with KK and you will get that feature.
Once xposed comes to 4.4 (soon), then so much more customization will be possible, including what you want to do.
After installing new apps, sometimes the icon appears in a new screen, sometimes I get a blank screen (that I can't remove until I reboot), sometimes nothing happens (and a new screen with shortcuts appears after a reboot).
Is this just me?

It's not just you, I have this bug too.
But if you want to remove the blank screen without reboot the device just move an icon to the blank screen then remove it again

This happens because sometimes after installing a new app, we move from that screen or perform another action before the new apps icon can be placed by default on a new screen. This results in a blank screen with nothing on it. You can't move or delete the homescreen because it renders that there should be a new app shortcut there, but we don't see one. So what i've done to avoid this is, wait for the app shortcut to push to the home screen, the remove it and that automatically gets rid of the home screen.
If it does show up blank again, as he recommended, just move something to that new screen then remove it again and it will disappear.
That new function is similar to that of iOS, when installing a new app, it tries to show you the shortcut to what you just installed, rather than having you manually create the short cut yourself.
Kind of annoying - agreed, but you adjust. It's second nature to me now.
You can have it not put the icons on your home screen by default in Google play settings. The option is place widgets on homescreen automatically. Disable that and newly downloaded apps stay in your app drawer for you to place manually if you want.

I think this is fixed in 4.4.1 or 4.4.2.
Installed and removed a handful of apps and the extra screens and app shortcuts now consistently do what they're supposed to do.
Today I installed Locker Pro and love those notifications on my lockscreen!
But I have one problem with it, whenever I get a notification and the screen wake's up, the screen will only stay on for 5 seconds before it goes black again, which most of the times is too short to be able to read the notification well.
Is it possible to change this time to, for example, 15 seconds, if so, how exactly?

Does anyone know of any lock screen alternatives that work well with the Mate 9.
I've tried a few but I've ended up with the new lock screen on top of the Mate 9 default one as i also can't find a way to disable the default lock screen.

i'm using an app called Floatify; it's more for notifications, but gives you the ability to use its lock screen as well. nothing fancy, there are a few customization options (clock style, wallpaper, clock size, position). i don't recall the stock lock screen interfering/appearing before the Floatify lock screen. (could be happening and i haven't see it). the pic below is using the Floatify lock screen and notifications (you can customize color/font/size of notifications).

Thanks for the suggestion and Floatify looks good but when I switch the phone on, I briefly get an image of the Huawei lock screen before it gets covered up but Floatify. Do you know how to fully disable the Huawei lock screen so it never appears?

unfortunately, i don't know how to completely disable the lock screen. did you disable the "magazine" lock screen? i disabled the "magazine" lock screen on my device and i see the Floatify lock screen when waking via the power button or fingerprint. i'll pay closer attention to see if the stock lock screen is actually appearing and i'm not noticing it.

Thanks for that. Unfortunately, I can't see a way to disable the Magazine lock. In Lock Screen Style, I can only see the Magazine lock and no way to select another or un-select Magazine lock. Any help very much appreciated.

hey, sorry about lack of clarity with my reply. i forgot to mention that i installed a theme named "Pure Black 1.5.2" and under Screen lock & passwords->Screen lock style, i chose Pure Black 1.5.2 as the lock screen (vs Magazine unlock). i also disabled "use" of the Magazine pictures on the lock screen by removing the checkmarks (Screen lock & passwords->Magazine unlock). i've been paying closer attention to my lock screen and the Floatify lock screen has appeared every time the device awakens to display notifications and/or if i press the power button to manually check for notifications. hope this helps and apologies for leaving out the additional steps.
