Love it! I was getting so bored with the stock lock screen. It's really hard to believe this is only in beta. Keep up the great work! Just one thought... changeable themed icons.
Sent from my SGH-M919 using XDA Premium HD app
Yes, very cool! Trying now.
+1 @projectvomit on the themed icons.
I have noticed a strange thing. When booting, the phone will boot into original lockscreen for about 10-20 sec. Then start Cover. Is there a way to boot directly into Cover? This is minor to me, but I have a feeling some people would cry about it.

Ok so on our HTC lock screens its nice when playing music that the play/forward/rewind buttons are still accessible without having to lock it.
Is there an apk to have more functions like my Agenda that is coming up from calendar or incoming text messages without having to unlock it. Its nice that maybe we can just check it and then reply back later.
Your help is appreciated. I hope something exists...
I'm using Coredroid V4.0 BTW if that makes any difference.
Thanks.

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.

I'm assuming you mean the developers at OEMs because I'm loving the ability to change between quite a few lock screens on Audiophile thanks to Raver. xD

Will this completely replace the stock lockscreen or is it just another program/overlay?

replaces lockscreen, but if you have a lock pattern it will show up as well
thanks for the suggestions, this works great (cept for the chinese). The Magic Lock suggested works great.
Thanks for the link, much appreciated. I used this lock screen app for about 3 days, there are some beautiful lock screen themes included (and downloadable) for this app. BUT...... It is a MAJOR battery hog. On average I was loosing about 2 to 3% battery drain per hour. At the end of my work day (9 to 10 hours), I'm usually around 75% on my battery with stock lock screen. When I started using the MIUI app, I was down to 50 - 55% battery at the end of my day. Switching back to stock lock got my percentages back to normal. If you can deal with the battery drain, it's cool app, even with all the Japanese lingo, lol....

The guys who created holo launcher made an actual jellybean based lock screen. It's working great on my note.
Thought to share it with the community for more jellybean goodies.

Thanks. Using it now. I don't use camera app much, so hate having it on my home screen. But, when out and about, it is nice to be able to quickly capture those important moments. Thus, having the camera shortcut on the lock screen is handy.

not able to set a separate lock screen wallpaper using this screen locker.
thanks, it's great!
Only I can not choose lockscreen wallpaper, hope in next versions it will be available, also more unlock options
I think they r working on many of those issues and missing features.
At least it's a lock screen where we r not forced to have a launcher installed. And it's very smooth as well.

Is there a switch in the settings which prevent the home button unlocking phone when on the lockscreen but otherwise allows the home button to act as normal?

Hello
Would it be possible to set shortcuts on tjis lockscreen in the next releazes?

Great app, super light!! And multiwindow works over it so you can launch your apps from lockscreen! Thanks for the heads up :good:
Hello guys! There is now a Ubuntu Theme(NOT ROM) which is made by Armando Ferreira. Thanks to him we will be able to make our phone look like an Ubuntu Phone. When Ubuntu is released for Phones only the Nexus will be able to get it but hopefully soon our phone will be able too. Now getting to the Theme. This theme will change alot of things. This includes your lock screen, and home screens. Not your notification center to be more clear. Now here are details of how you can get this.
You must download all of these apps before you begin:
TSF Launcher: http://goo.gl/SAzNP
MIUI TSF Theme: http://goo.gl/hgzAX **This theme must be side loaded. (Download Dark Theme)
TSF Pendant Widget: http://goo.gl/JKMM1
Widget Locker: http://goo.gl/JU1hf
JB+ Clock App: http://goo.gl/lgUPW
UCCW: http://goo.gl/TZgw0
MultiPicture Live Wallpaper: http://goo.gl/DlD96
Minimal Reader Pro: http://goo.gl/8lT9z
Pure Music Widget: http://goo.gl/u5HrJ
Simple Calendar Widget: http://goo.gl/scgWA
Aix Weather Widget: http://goo.gl/jtP2Y
Google Drive: http://goo.gl/CS7Nc (not really needed)
BlingBoard Social: http://goo.gl/KTs6h
UBUNTUBOSS.ZIP RESTORE FILE: http://t.co/ttGe5Kl6
After you have downloaded all of those files. The UbuntuBoss.zip you will need to extract it. You will see a folder called "sd card". Open it and move everything inside it to your internal storage. After that open widget locker and go to settings then to Backup/Restore. Press restore. If you did it correctly you will see Ubuntu Lock. Click on that. You should see the lock screen. Click on tap to restore widget. If nothing happens go to UCCW and disable hot spot settings and try again. Next you add the Clock JB widget to it. Resize it to your fit to be more comfortable in your way
You have finished the lock screen now its time for the Home Screen. Open up TSF Launcher. Swipe to the right if the menu bar is not showing up. Click on the gear and then click themes. Now you click the MIUI theme that is in there. You have to restart TSF now. Swipe to left again and click the gear again... But click settings. Go all the way down and press restart. The screen should be clear. Nothing there. If not restart again. Swipe to fingers to the right to get to the Menu Bar. Now on the home screen hold down with one finger until you see the widgets, wallpaper, apps ,etc. Click wallpaper, then live wallpaper. You should see multi live wallpaper. Go to the gallery and it should be in order in an ubuntu folder. When you click on a photo it should say u1, u2, u3, and u5. Do that in order in the homescreen. After you have done that. Take one screen(delete it) by clicking on the bottom and delete it. Do this so the wallpaper is even.
You are done! All you have to do is customize it!
