Okay so I set my lock screen to a custom one I downloaded off the play store (sidelock) and this has happened before in many of the other lockscreens I've had, but when I lock my phone then turn it back on again, it loads up to the default lock screen and then glitches into the custom one.
I am wondering if there is any way that I could fix this so that it loads up to my custom lock screen automatically instead of glitching like this.
Thank you

Does anyone know how to change just the lock screen image on the Captivate? I know on Sense UI you go to set a wall paper you choose to set the lock or home screen.
Does anyone know a hack or work around on the captivate? I don't like having pictures as a background on the phone (doesn't work well with 7 screens) however I want my daughters picture for my lock screen.
Thanks!
Great question, I was just wondering this myself.
I would love to set a different image for my lockscreen than my wallpaper.
Lockbot , market app can do that.
Awesome thanks for the help!
Sorry to dig this thread up, but has anybody had any luck with this? I tried both LockBot and Lock 2.0 and while they do the trick, the consistently fail to activate fast enough. The stock lock screen is instantaneous, while these aftermarket apps have a delay between when you turn the phone on to when the app locks the phone.
Hello,
I owned a Galaxy S with Android 2.3.6 and used the SwitchPro Widget all the time for the screen lock widget, to prevent using the power button to lock the screen. Recently, I upgraded to the S3 and the same widget is giving me trouble. Everytime I use it, it turns the screen off, but immediately it turns back on and it stays like that for a few seconds. It acts like something else is waking it up. Sometimes, it does work perfectly, but it's very rare. I am using a pattern on the lock screen to unlock, but I don't see how that could be a problem since it was the same on my older phone. Does anyone have any hints or experience the same problem ? I tried using other widget packs with screen lock widgets, but they all act the same.
Thanks in advance.
same problem

I have the same problem on a Sony Experia Pro... I've used "zMooth" to lock screen with a gesture and "screen off" widget for that... both used to work well on the original stack gingerbread... but then I flashed a custom ICS rom and now they do what you describe... I really wonder if it's something more related to ICS than anything else.

i'm having the same issues with my galaxy s3, and its quite annoying.
I used to have an HTC amaze that was updated to ICS, and it had no issues going screen off right away with switchpro widget
Need a shortcut to turn off screen and lock device without touching power button.
GF got use to using the one I put on HTC Inc 2. Looking for one that works on
our Sammy S3 Verizon.

I use Screen off and lock found in Google play store.
Screen off and lock ap by Kattaca is one of the only "real one" of these apps available. The multitude of widgets are useless, they just black your screen. Only problem with these apps in android 4.0+ is there is an instant reflash of the screen when the screen shuts off. This is not an issue with the app it, is a bug in the android os. I personally do not mind because I love the app, get the donate version and be glad you did. I've been in contact with the dev testing on different os's and he is on the issue as soon as there is a fix available.
JustCause,
Screen Off and Lock by Katecca is your best bet. There are many
others but none of them work. Although Screen Off and Lock isn't
perfect its the only game in town if you need a one click to turn off
screen. Here's a link 4U https://play.google.com/store/apps/...reenofflockdonate&feature=more_from_developer
Hope This Helps:fingers-crossed:
I've been running Synergy for some time now on my Verizon S3, but the new rotating home/lockscreen gets quite annoying (unlock your phone with a pattern while laying down or reclined, or when it's anything but vertical)
Alternate homescreen (Apex, etc) has easily solved this problem, however I am looking for a lockscreen I can install without messing up anything in the ROM itself. Does anyone have any suggestions a new lockscreen if possible?
He is working on the rotation issue on the lock screen I know for sure. I think he may be adding alternate lock/home screen support in the near future as well.
Ok so I got my U11 all setup and working great stock for now. But I noticed on my lock screen it somehow now has my lock screen banner that I had on my Samsung. Anyone know how to change this without rooting?
Never mind I finally found it.
