[APP] WidgetLocker Lockscreen replacement

WidgetLocker is a paid app, this thread is to be used for support. Also feel free to email me.
I'm the developer of WidgetLocker, which is a lockscreen replacement with emphasis on customization. Primarily by allowing you to place standard Android widgets (or shortcuts) on the lockscreen. It allows you to drag-and-drop similar to how the home screen works. It also includes Custom Sliders, which allow you to add extra sliders to the lockscreen for whatever you want. There's built in actions for things like silence/vibrate, brightness, quick camera mode, dialer. But you can also use any shortcut, such as direct dial or any application on your phone.

Frequently Asked Questions
Additional FAQs:
When will the next update be released?
Sorry, I cannot give ETAs. Updates take a lot of time and I try to squeeze a lot into an update. Please be patient.
I'm having a really weird problem?
Can you send a bug report via Settings > Report Bug so I have some more information? (And please briefly restate the problem to remind me what the report is in regard to).

FYI those problems I contacted you about earlier are no longer. Don't know what it was, but it works wonderfully. Great app!

Yep, WidgetLocker rules, FlyScreen drools. It works really great, and it's fast and always there. No more built-in lock before the lock screen, no more home/back/notification goes past it, etc..
Did a good job on this one, look forward to what's coming.

bought!....great work keep it up!!

A version for us who can't pay would be cool
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App

Im interested in buying this for my Legend to solve a problem.
Basically I love spotify but its main shortcoming is it doesnt have lockscreen controls.
Ive looked all over for some kind of hold down volume +- to change current media track but no joy.
Would it be possible to have some kind of overall media controls to add as a widget? What I mean is if anything is using the media output (could be any program) then skipping forward and back would work on whatever it is thats playing but not in focus.
There must be a way to do this ;(

I assume you are in a country that allows paid apps?
And are running Android 2.1 or 2.2?
If those are both true then what phone are you on? I can't think of any other reason WidgetLocker wouldn't be visible. It does not employe the "copy protection" that sometimes blocks market visibility.

i heard people on the 2.2 roms ... leaked and beta versions sometimes have issues seeing apps in the market

Using ADW here, and the ONLY time I see lag is when ADW has clearly gotten killed for whatever reason. Otherwise it comes up immediately.

I believe this is only when the app has the copy-protection option enabled on the market. I don't have that enabled for WidgetLocker (mainly because I want it visible to people on leaked roms)

iTouch24 and I identified the LauncherPro problem as an animation being run by LauncherPro whenever it is activated (and the animation is still run even if it's suppossed to be disabled. It just runs much faster.). I'm going to talk to Fredrico about seeing if WidgetLocker can bypass this animation and also suggest he add options to disable them in general as not all users want them. Also note that this LauncherPro delay is very minor (the length of a quick animation), not a serious lag issue.

Aha, 'splains that then. I haven't really used LauncherPro since trying ADW

I just found this app today after hearing about it on the last Android Atlas podcast. I love it as is but what I'm truly looking for is a pattern-based lock screen where the pattern points are invisible.
I love being able to customize my lock screen with all of the options that you have included with this app. But nothing would please me more than being able to to away with the slider all together in lieu a pattern lock where the points of contact are not seen.
I would love the added security while maintaining the aesthetics of the unlock screen options that you have included. Perhaps something to consider in any potential updates. Either way your app is quite nice.

sorta off topic but any of you guys have a suggestion for a missed call widget?
keep up the great work!

Thank you very much for this amazing application.

It's will be great if we can used LW ownskined.

[APP] FrameMe - Go Ahead, Share Your Joy [Update 4-29-2011]

I originally wrote Frame me for my Hero and released it under the Hero forums. Since it should work on any phone I though I would add a thread here as well. I only have my Hero to test with so if you have something other than a Hero I would love to hear your feedback.
In short, Frame me is a 1x1 widget of a photo that enlarges to full screen when clicked. Here are a few features:
Now working with the Atrix external SDCard
1x1, 1x2, 2x1, 2x2 Widgets
full screen image when clicked
multiple widgets supported
selectable picture frames
Crop image when selecting
Full widget preview on your background
Click on one widget - Fling to the others
Click on widget and fling through images in user selected directory
timed rotation of widget image in directory mode
Reconfigure existing widgets
Atrix external SDCard support
Frameless image
My Application website is at: http://deanstudios.net/dev/frameme
More details can be found at the site above or in the Hero App thread, HERE. FrameMe is available as a free download on the Hero thread. However, If you enjoy it and wish say thanks, it is also in the market for $0.99. Below are a few screenshots give you an idea. Click one of the links above to read the details or download. Thanks for taking a look!!

Nicely done! I can confirm it works flawlessly on my HTC Desire!
Oh, and I noticed you are experiencing a lag on the first launch, not a problem here!
Keep up the good work 41!

awesome! thanks dev, working grate on droid1 UD 8.0.0 so far.

Can I use the web picture instead of local on my sdcard? If not, I would really appreciate that!

Thanks combatdan! The lag, I am sure, is due to the processor in my Hero. It isn't horrible, just more than it was with a single image (or a single widget, I keep 4 up).

I hadn't actually thought of this. I will add it to the wish list. This is my first venture into android so it takes me a little bit of time to get my head around some of the APIs. I like the idea though.

Thanks for considering this. My idea is that it will reload the widget picture in regural times or by clicking on it, that's all. When do you think you will be able to implement this?

I am currently in a foreign country in the middle of adopting our 4th child. I don't know that I can offer a timeline for much of anything. I have so other items to work on first but I will consider. It may also depend on how many others show interest in a web option.

Thanks orangekid. Pesky BBCode was in the wrong place. It is working now.

Just letting you know, version 1.1.2 has just been released. Includes a minor change to the directory option (thumbnails now show when clicked) and 7 new frames. More information through the links in the OP.

Okay everyone version 1.2.0 is out and ready to be enjoyed. There were significant layout and code changes to this one so if you find a bug PLEASE let me know. Especially you guys on hdpi devices. So, here is the short list of changes:
Full widget preview on your own background during the widget configuration
Simplified layout (easier for me to add frames)
Reconfigurable widgets, press menu while widget is full screen for widget settings.
Graphical frame selection – awwww pretty!
Bug fixes – pesky bugs
Code performance improvements
Enjoy! Links are updated on the original post.

The application works wonderfully but the 1x1 widget is almost impossible to see anything. Is there any chance in the future update of size 2x2.

Yes, a 2x2 is on my to-do list. I originally wrote this for my own use and the 1x1 is what I needed and couldn't find. I have had several requests for a 2x2 and am currently working on it.
Glad you like it!!

I love the APP!
Im not sure why but on my LG Ally the pictures dont sit inside the frame, they sit under and outside the frame a little to the bottom right corner.... like if you used a drop shadow in photoshop. not sure if that helps explain what I meen...

Hi Rookie4life, I know what you are talking about. That should have been solved in version 1.2.1. Actually, that was the reason I put out 1.2.1. What version do you have installed? Links in the Hero form (available in OP) should be updated for the latest version. If this is still happening with 1.2.1 then I will have to look into it some more.

ahhh... yes i have 1.2.0
i must have missed the link for 1.2.1
I will have to look again. thank you for you quick response

Perfectly simple app! I love it. Thank you for creating it! I'm going to go d/l the donate version now.
Billy

Great app! Thank you! Trying it out!

Using this on the EVO, when I click on the "Dir Enable" then save, when I click on the picture widget I get a force close.

great app i purchased...
Can you change the options besides 1x1? When i resize on the phhone they look pixilated (which is expected)

Hi Vegasden, do you click on the text "click here to set dir" and choose a directory or just press save after clicking the check box? Either way it shouldn't FC. I will look and see if I can determine where that happens. Let me know if you are also setting a directory path.

[CHT2] The Ultimate Geek Redesign [UPD: DEC 10]

Introduction
Ok, so some of you may have seen my first clocks I've every made - know as the geek clocks. I would like to explain myself then continue this beautiful idea I have.
As many of you know, as soon as you take out your HD2 people awe over it's size but always end up asking - is that an iPhone? Then a conversation opens, and they say - so why wouldn't you just get an iPhone? Valid question for people who don't actually know how to use a cellphone. But we then show them how much better our cell really is. But truthfully, no one cares about specs - they care about looks. It's like at a bar: you don't go over to the nicest girl, you go over to the hottest girl.
So therefore, I would like to introduce to you the new Ultimate Geek Redesign! The idea is to have a funny, geeky, spiffy way to show off our cellphones just from our homescreen. I call this a redesign and not a theme is because I plan on making it a continual work in progress, as well as having multiple clocks/locks/softkeys/etc. so you can pick whatever you want without me picking your theme for you.
I am currently a beginner at all this jazz and the only thing I know how to use is photoshop. My cabs probably aren't made perfectly (although they work - I proved that on my cell) and I don't understand the coding at all... although I am currently trying to learn. Although, now that I think about it, that means my stuff's probably better for you - you know, "beginner's luck"
I will be constantly adding widgets to here (I've been working for 2 days and see how far I've gone already) so check back often.
If you have any ideas to build on what I have or new designing projects, or can help me with the programming bit, please pm me or reply to me here!
Now for the REDESIGNING!
Table of Contents:
CamoLock - The Invisible Lock Screen
InvisibleLock - I don't exist
No Entry - Do not enter! lock
The Ultimate Geek Clock - we just wanna show off
Digi-Geek Clock - For Those Digitalized Geeks
Binary Clock - It's Time to Work with Powers (pun intended)
The CamoLock- The invisible (camouflaged) lock screen
Who wants to be able to see there lock button - just just takes up room and looks, well, not so nice This is for cht's lockscreen - windows style! (When you hold it down it turns normal again - then let go and it disappears... magic!)

NEW!!! Invisible Lock
No screen shot for this - its actually invisible, only pressing on it makes it visible again!
No Entry Lock Screen
We don't anyone touching or messing around with our cell - it's time to share that!
The Ultimate Geek Clock
Link to its page is here.
Digi-Geek Clock (same link as before) [please use 24 clocks people - that's what geeks are for )
Softkeys in the pictures above (they are minimal to leave our beautiful screen more room!)
Binary Clock - the ultimate geek way to tell time without anyone every knowing!
(The time is 1:56 - I hope you could tell)
By they way, this is only for 24 hour clocks - because, of course, we are geeks!
Works in progress:
Backgrounds (although more ideas would be nice!)
Locks
Email/Messages Skins
More Softkeys
Ideas for anything would be greatly appreciated, and again, anyone who can help with the programming lua and mode9 or whatever that stuff is would be amazing!

Just as a quick guess, it's because you don't have the CHT lockscreen set or it's not set to windows style... in any case after you install you have to restart sense - but I actually currently have it installed on mine so it is possible - I would put up a screen shot but I feel like that might be a waste of room
In any case check your settings then get back to me
good luck

Do an live wallpaper like the Jelly Bean Easteregg, with floating colorful Jellybeans, no one ever achieved that.
Also, it works on Gingerbread 2.3, im using it on my Galaxy Y

I'm VERY picky when it comes to live wallpapers, I just installed this and all I can say is... WOW. It runs VERY smooth, looks great in full HD (HTC One) and doesn't cause any lag through home screens.
Well done, and I'll be keeping an eye out for a paid/donate version Thanks!

Can you add an option for reducing the hexagon size ???

Ok, nice, looking forward for the JB wallpaper project too.
The Jelly Bean's drawables and the Candy Cane are on the SystemUI.APK (it can be on framework-res.apk too, you will find them here, on 4 different styles).

It's fantastic! but in my s4 it stop working, it become a normal wallpaper (maybe add background and color options )

Really nicely made lwp, it's very smooth. The only request would be hexagon and pulse colours, but it's great as it is.

works flawlessly in Xperia Acro S .200
many more options like changing colours, pulse and many more can think of.
very smooth i want to add.

After using Android os for a long time, I wonder whether I could get rid of the original android interface and some fixed functions.
So, after confusing for such a long time, I decide to develop a new os which could be installed on Android Smartphone, and I have been putting my effort on it.
PLS Read Carefully before downloading...
But there are two bugs for foreigners that I have already known and trying to fix it.
**Known issues:
1. The weather which on the front page only works in China.
2. News widget is now Chinese and if you do not want to see it, you could close it in the settings.
I’m so sorry to bring you inconvenient.
Even thought I call it GEAK OS, But actually it is a series of apps which including launcher, massager, dialer etc.
I start with important apps which are highly used in our daily life like these.
Install instructions:
- Here is the test version,
And refer to the latest post.
Thanks for using my os, and cause I have been give out too many codes, and some of you just uninstall it right after installing.
I know im not perfect for the present, That's why I need your help.
U could talk with me and guys who like Geakos too.
Some guys have been giving me very good feedback.
I have to thank them sooooo much.
So, If U REALLY want use Geakos and are happy to stay and talk, you could [Mod Edit].
Hope you could give me some ideas about my job.
Let's make it better together !!!
Do not forget to like me ^^
ALSO, you could tell us your advice about our operating system.
I plan to update Geak os every week depending on your needs!!! This week on Wednesday!
But once you uninstall it, you could not update to the new version...

You could try mine and give me some ideas.

For the first glance, it is a little similar with miui.
But im trying to develop something different and new.
Hope you could give me some ideas and suggestions
And I plan to update every week!
Thank you

i know and it's a good idea...
for android rom could be a good alternative to miui lite..
however i have a suggestion to you :
you could add miui lite mode

i try it on miui 6 on mi2s and works good..
has alphabetically order of apps..very very nice..
however when i go in application settings in geaok osstatus bar don't see god because in under application settings..
Then can you add news from google weather and news app..It should nice..
another thing can you add infinite loop??
maybe it's useful for some people..for me it's useful when i work and i need a simply interface..

I knew "the medium is the massage" from Mc Luhan's famous book cover error, but if now we also can send a massage, great !
PS : just a joke, no offense !!

Copy paste from miui !!

Thanks for your advise!!
I will analyze your need carefully and let you know which one may update in the following version.
For the news problem, im try to find API, but google's news and yahoo's news do not have articles in details. so im still trying to find some better.
Do you know the address of some good news API?
Have a nice weekend ～

for news you could use feedly api so everyone can use own feeds..
or integrate a simply rss aggregator..

Still a problem...

rss provide the brief info. and I have to plan the project again.
But thans for your advice
And still have the problem that I could not get Google's integrated news source and weather source....

Sorry about the double post. Tapatalk messed up

Contacts App shows Contracts inside. Please fix it. and the graphics can be a lot better. Its very choppy now with edges breaking. also the black theme and black text makes difficult to view certain screens/options. Hope to see it fixed soon.. All the best.
And is there a settings option??? I couldn't find one.

And for the graphics you mean the wallpaper?
Also the setting option is in the file of Tools on the first line of home page ~
Do you think it is better to just leave it alone on the homepage instead of in the Tools file?

By Graphics I meant the icons. It is very choppy (like stretched making it blurry for example the new msg icon in messages, phone dialer screen etc). and yes a straightforward icon for settings would be nice.
Also would there be any option to show the contacts photo in the contacts app?? That would be really cool.

Don't be a jerk, themes can't give massages.

You could probably get a better feedback if this was made public. Also could diagnose the problems quicker! ?
