Mesmerize lock screen problems

I've tried running some other lock screens because i hate the stock one. none of them work. They work for awhile and then suddenly you'll use the new one and the stock one will be there after words so essentially the phone is double locking.
Anyone know a way to fix this so i can use a different lock screen and not have it double lock.

I use lock 2.0 its $2 on the market and i never had the double lock issue. If you use a task killer make sure that you exclude it

I find that if you install NoLock from the market and enable a pattern lock it disables the stock lockscreen, at least in my experience.

if you just enable a pattern lock it will disable the default one

I use widgetlocker.
It's $2 on the market, and development is active on it.
It works very nicely too, and allows you to clutter your lock screen with widgets. lol

I just got this and installed it and within the first hr i had 2 lock screens anyway around this i really want this working i cant stand the oem lock screen.

If you're still looking for a fix, try out GOTO Lockscreen. I switched from my NoLock idea to it, it does a good job of keeping the crappy stock lockscreen away.
It has a nice rotary slider with shortcuts at intervals on the slider, and a couple of other nice features. I think you would like it.

Transparent lock screen on top of home screen after fixing permissions in ROM manager

Transparent lock screen on top of home screen after fixing permissions in ROM manager...how to fix this?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using Tapatalk

While I cannot tell you how to permanently fix this, I can tell you it happens to me as well. I guess for now we must go re-choose the lockscreen wallpaper whenever we fix permissions.

Adb pull framework-res and change the default lock wallpaper and the keyguard wallpaper to ones of your choosing. They are in res/hdpi.

How to fix lock screen glitch?
Hey guys.
Quick question. Hope this is a good forum for this question. Hopefully someone has the answer that I have overlooked.
Lockmenu is a very cool lock screen app(to me, anyway. I'm a noob so...). Gives very quick access from the lock screen to whatever apps you wish. Sort of like Shortcuts, but directly from a lock screen.
My problem is when I unlock from the main Unlock Slider on the bottom left, it takes me to the default lock screen on my Skyrocket.
How do I disable the default system lock screen?
There is no option in the settings to disable the default lock screen for those of you who might think its that simple.
Anyone else having this problem?
I have tried the Nolock app first to disable the default system lock screen, but...
So in other words I go through two lock screens most of the time. Once in awhile it will unlock to the home screen from the Lockmenu Unlock Slider as it is supposed to.
I'm running ICS rooted on Galaxy Skyrocket.
Any help is much appreciated.

[Q] Lockscreen Notifications with Fingerprint Unlock?

Hey guys, I just got a Note Edge (loving it btw) and was wondering if there are any lock screen replacements with decent notification features (like Snaplock) that also allows unlocking by fingerprint? I quite like the look of the normal TouchWiz lock screen so something like the DashClock Widget would be perfect since it adds notifications by way of widgets instead of a whole lock screen replacement but I just found out that TouchWiz doesn't allow widgets on the lock screen apart from the default digital clock. Can someone offer some suggestions? Either a lock screen replacement that allows fingerprint scanning or some way to allow widgets on the lock screen after I root it. Thanks a lot!

Go setting....lock screen...under screen lock select finger print.

It's already built into the phone and works great for me. I also like how when using PayPal you can swipe your fingerprint to pay. Can't wait till you can lock different apps with the fingerprint, this would be super useful.

Sorry, maybe I didn't explain properly. I've already registered 3 fingerprints and they work quite well in the lock screen (a lot better than what I had read from some accounts prior to purchasing the phone). What I would like is to have notifications on my lock screen like what you'd get on an iPhone or through lock screen replacements like Snaplock or Next Lock Screen. The problem is, when I turn on one of these lock screen replacements in the settings, I get two lock screens. First the replacement lock screen appears with all the notifications and then after unlocking that through either swiping/pattern/pin (they don't support fingerprints), I get the system lock screen which allows me to use my fingerprint. Of course, I can just turn off the system lock screen but like I said, the other lock screen replacements like Snaplock or Next don't support fingerprints.

How can u set up paypal?

With the upgrade to Lollipop, you can now get notifications to show on the lock screen (Settings > Device > Sound and Notifications). Unfortunately, Samsung doesn't allow widgets to be used on the secure (fingerprint, PIN, pass, etc.) lock screens, so I am unable to put a weather widget on my lock screen. And since I have a corporate Exchange email account set up on my phone i can't opt-out of using a secure lock screen.
Like all of the other unfortunate AT&T customers that purchased a Note Edge, I got screwed over without the ability to root my device. I would really like to set my phone up the way I want it, as it should be.
And while i'm *****ing, why can't Samsung set up one of their Edge panels (briefing maybe?) to wake the edge screen and display notifications for SMS messages? Am I missing something, or wouldn't that be an ideal function to have with the edge screen? It's nice that they will allow sms notifications on the main lock screen now via lollipop, but why not put them on the edge screen where they should be on a device such as this?
If i'm missing something and there are ways to resolve my two complains please feel free to fill me in.

Thanks for that. I'm still trying to get my phone to update to Lollipop so maybe that will solve everything. I have a factory unlocked phone bought in Australia so from what I read, the update should've rolled out ages ago but it never seems to see it. Anyways, I'm downloading the update manually now via sammobile so let's see!

Totally agree with you. Even if we don't get whole text messages scrolled across the Edge screen, at least light up a few pixels there to show us there that there are notifications waiting. I have a cover that doesn't allow me to see the notification light next to the logo but has a slit cut out for the Edge so that would be perfect.

Flip case with s-view like feature

Hi,
our redmis has hall sensor, so it should be possible to use smart covers like samsung s-view or lg quick circle.
Does anyone know any good flip cover with this function?
The only one I've found is from this shop:
http://www.lelong.com.my/xiaomi-mi-...ver-hottonegadget-I1824700-2007-01-Sale-I.htm
Thanks

On the Mi 5 there's an option where you enable the smart cover in MIUI to have a "transparent cover" for incoming calls and such.
It's in Settings > Lock screen and passwords, under "Smartcover mode".
Not sure about the Redmi Note 3 (I use CM so can't check) but I believe if we have the sensor we should have the option as well.

There is "smartcover mode" option. I'm just looking for a better quality cover than the upper one

Question Disable lock screen?

Sorry if this has already been covered, but it there a way to flip the phone open and have it go directly to the last opened app / home screen while still keeping fingerprints enabled? I understand that the screen lock type can be set to "none" but this also makes me erase my fingerprints / pin. I don't need lock screen security but would like to keep fingerprint authentication for other apps. I tried to change screen lock type to none and then setup my fingerprint within Samsung pay but this just re-enabled the lock screen.
Thanks in advance.

Have a look at "autoinput" on playstore.
