[APP] Lock 2.0 unusable on Nexus One

I have had the payed version of Lock 2.0 since there was an option to buy but since I got my Nexus One it has now become pretty much unusable. The sad part is that it is better than the lock button that is on the top of the phone cause it lets you bring up the lock screen by pressing your track ball. I love all the different back grounds and sounds you can download and how they stay in a folder and not in your app draw (which is really annoying). Now the thing I don't like is that when you press the volume buttons when the phone is locked you can and will turn down or up the volume on accident and this is why this app is now unusable. Can it really be that hard to add an option to disable these buttons? I have emailed Android Apps and they say the reason the volume button does that is for when you are listening to music and thats great but whats the use if when you get a call or text and you can't hear it cause you turned the volume down to 0 on accident. I emailed them today again and asked if they could update their app and I hope they do. The reason I started this thread is so anybody could comment on this problem with I have to say is probably my second favorite app on the market. I will also email them a link to this thread so they can see what everybody thinks. One more thing on another lock app LockBot when you press the volume button the sound does not get turned down but I don't want to really pay for two apps that can do the same thing. Edit: OK they fixed it but their is a new problem with the home button.

What rom are you using?
Cyanogens latest has an option for trackball wake-up (and of course that mod can be applied to other roms as well) if that is indeed the biggest thing about it you like. I personally never saw the need to change my lockscreen from stock, but can understand why some people do.

I am using the stock rom, I didn't want to root this phone since you void your warranty and mine is pretty messed up I should get a replacement this week. Also I am glad Cyanogen added that and that tells you it is a problem in the stock or he wouldn't have had to improve on it. So people like me only have the option of downloading an app to get the same results. Also I have used a rooted phone before, I had been using my Google Ion rooted for about 6 months before I got my Nexus One.

Ok I just got an email from the developer and they have disabled the volume buttons by default on the new version that was fast. Now there is a weird problem where even after you set the Launcher as the default for your home button it still keeps opening Lock 2.0, its really annoying but I already told them so I'm sure they will fix it. Now if only Google would respond like this for their "Support Forums" on fixing the 3G and Touchscreen problems the world would be a better place.

I understand the issue with the volume keys. I don't listen to music so i installed the app (ringer mode locker) by kaa from the market. It overrides the system setting and locks on your choose of settings: vibrate, ringer silent etc. If you volume up or down it stays on you set point. I like if because it is not a background app using extra battery trying to monitor a set point.

Please don't critisize Google like this, 3G issues and Touchscreen problems are not simple applications in which code can be modified to turn off the "Volume" buttons.. I've noticed the employees on their forums try to solve things to the best of their abilities - but Google can not just correct everything as if it takes a small flick of the wrist, or click of a mouse...
Honestly I don't see how they will fix any 3G issue entierly without modifiying the insides of the phone.. guess I dont know enough about phones to make such a conclusion anyways.

I emailed them about this a couple of weeks ago. I told them exactly that and I got a "Steve Jobs-like" response lol..
"Something is wrong with your phone."
I even posted about it a couple of times in the Q&A section but got no responses. I'm glad to see someone on a stock ROM is experiencing the same issue because I thought it was due to using CM. Are you using an auto task-killer?

Get "KeyGuard disabler" from the market. It costs 1.49 but does exactly what you want. I'm sure there are free versions of similar software too but this is only one i've ever tried.

wow dude just tried it! works perfect! thanks man!

Meh....
After installing and trying to use it, I finally gave up. It has the potential to be by far one of the best android apps. The developer has designed programs that mesh with android so natively that I am jealous of his understanding. But even after a few reinstallations, this program never delivered. A replacement lockscreen must be more than just pretty. It wasn't sized right for the Nexus One screen and constantly froze "Updating List", even when I was just trying to unlock. The "Updating List" freeze causes a loop that just recalled the freeze when I hit home. There is no escape short of hitting menu, more, home, then selecting my home screen program. I would consider that a lock screen fail if I have to navigate a menu to select a home screen instead of sliding the sexy little slider over. I hate taking refunds from the market, but Lock 2.0 needs more work. If I see anyone saying it has been adjusted for the N1 screen and the home bug has been fixed, I'll buy it again, but until then, I'll stick with the just weather and toggle widgets.

I hear that Lock 2.0 disables notifications on the Nexus One. Does anybody know of any apps thats just as attractive as Lock 2.0 that doesn't disable notifications or freeze.. etc.. (something iphone-ish i guess)

Any news about the home button bug bypassing the lock screen in Lock 2.0?

As far as a can tell its been working good and the dev added the option to clear the home screen default if it does it again. Its pretty sad that he left it messed up for months until I sent him the link to this thread.

Thanks, but I was referring to another bug (unless I'm totally mistaken):
When you turn on your nexus and you're still on Lock 2.0 lock screen, if you press the home button, it unlocks the phone without having to use the slider.
Hope this was clear...

GO Launcher EX users beware

I love my Thunderbolt. And, until yesterday I loved Go Launcher EX. But that changed.
I had an emergency. I won't go into details but if any of you have been in an emergency then you know that you need to act quick to quell the onset of panic.
I pulled out my Thunderbolt. It was bright daylight. Hard to see the display. I normally have the brightness set at 30% to save battery. So it took a few seconds for me to find the icon I keep on the home page to change the brightness from the normal 30% to the full 100%.
Whew! I found it and could now see the screen clearly. I need to call 911 as panic is starting to build up.
I have Go Launcher Ex installed and love its flexibility. On the bottom of the phone Go Launcher EX installs 5 icons. The first one is phone, the next one contacts, etc.
I look at the bottom row. Instead of phone, contacts, etc. I see 5 icons but they are all the same. They are all just a large + sign. (That's Plus Sign).
Pressing on them takes me to, I think, a configuration screen of some kind. I don't really remember now because panic is starting to set in since I can't dial 911, or anything else for that matter. I CAN'T GET TO MY FRIGGIN' PHONE. HELP ME, I'm thinking. What the eff is going on here. How do I solve this? Quick, think of something! FAST! NOW! HELP ME!
I do the only thing I know how to do to fix the phone. I hold down the power button and press RESET. Panic is swelling. I know it will take a minute or so for the phone to reset but the worst fear is that I still won't be able to use the phone if GO Launcher EX is still acting up.
During the reboot time I try to calm myself. I try to think of how to kill Go Launcher EX and get back to the HTC stock page. Do I go into settings and delete in the app? How the heck do I get into settings if the buttons don't work? HELP ME!
Finally, after what seemed to be an hour but was only probably 90 seconds or so, the phone lock screen is displayed. I swipe it down with anxiety hoping I don't see five plus signs and hoping it's back to normal. I can see the normal icons including the phone icon. Whew! what a relief. I press the phone icon but it says no coverage. I try to stay calm. I press the phone icon again and now I have coverage. I can make the call.
I gotta tell you that my hands were shaking and I was a nervous wreck for about an hour but everything turned out OK.
It did make me think of how dangerous it is to rely upon third party apps on such a critical piece of equipment. Having said that I'm hoping this was just one oddball anomaly and, for now, I'm keeping Go Launcher EX installed and running. But, I gotta ask, has anyone else seen this with Go Launcher EX?

It sounds like you accidently swiped the dock. Go Launcher by default includes three docks. When I slide between them, the other two show as a row full of "+"'s

That's correct u can go to dock settings in go launcher and set the number of docks from 3 to 1 then u won't have that problem again

Yeah sorry but sounds like user error in your panic, not sure how you used go launcher very long and never found that feature. Launcher Pro has same feature and you could put your dialer in every slot if you wanted

Thanks so much for your reply. I just reread my post and my heart rate went up again. Your suggestion has a calming effect.
Hopefully, this thread will make back to the developers of Go Launcher EX and they'll set the default to 1 instead of 3.
Whew!
Edit: It's crystal clear what happened now that I can reproduce it. However, I didn't know about the dock and during a time of crisis couldn't fix it. I've now set my dock rows to 1 and that corrected the behavior. I wouldn't want anyone that needed to use my phone to save ME in an emergency to run into the same problem.

The first time this happened to me w/Launcher Pro I had ZERO clue wtf just happened to my icons, lol, full on panic, but not during a 911 crisis thank goodness.

My friend had the same issue. He accidentally swiped and was pulling his hair out trying to fix it.

This is why I stopped using ADW, the launcher would randomly disappear (I must have bumped it wrong) and could *NOT* figure out how to bring it back (even resetting wouldn't). I haven't had this issue with Launcher Pro thankfully.

I tried swing around where it should be to bring it back and it never did come back up. I couldn't find an option to disable it either. At this point I paid for Launcher Pro anyways so I wouldn't go back to ADW.

Thanks, that's a good tip.
Unfortunately, in the heat of panic somehow all logic and learned tips just seem to fly out the window.
I have a "feature phone" (non smart phone) that was sitting in the center console of my car. I use it exclusively to connect to my Ford Sync. It never occurred to me, during the heat of panic, to open up the center console and use that phone. A couple of days later I slapped my forehead with the palm of my hand when I thought about that.

That happens to the best of us, glad to hear everything is okay for you.

If you go into the GoLauncher preferences and select Exit or Restart (can't remember which) it automatically removes itself as the default launcher. So you can hit the home button and select another launcher.

Touchwiz widgets reloading...

Has anyone figured out a way to stop the redrawing of the widgets when coming back to the home screen?

I would love to know this too.

most annoying thing on this phone... This thing is perfect otherwise, it really kills the speed of the phone when widgets are redrawing all the time...

Not sure what is being referenced - my WeatherBug, Simple Calendar and Google Search widgets don't flicker or refresh when I switch back to the Home screen (or, to whichever screen I have widgets on).
- ooofest

This was the main reason that pushed me towards rooting and custom roming.
Couldnt handle the constant redrawing. i guess 2GB of ram wasnt enough
Dont thank/like/rep my posts or ill report you.

I do not run the TW launcher but did you guys try disabling the the double tap home button to open up s-voice. I think this is on by default and I think I remember reading a while ago that this caused lag going back to the launcher. Maybe worth a shot to see if it helps.
Without the ability to re-size all widgets in the TW launcher it is kind of a useless launcher to me. I use Apex and the ability to theme the dockbars and everything make it even better then Nova for me.

I dont have this issue like this. As Eman said open s voice and goto settings and uncheck "open via the home key". When you hit the home key it waits a tad for you to hit it again to activate svoice.
Also goto settings developer options and change the animations from 1.0 to 0.5 or off. I run them on off, gets rid of lag.

I had this issue when I turned off animation and transition, when I turned them back on they don't do it anymore.
Also the dev option "do not keep background activities" will cause this too. If you are using Power Saving, the "screen power saving" option lowers the refresh rate of the screen, Disable it if your using powersaver.
My 2 cents.

I run those exact settings but still get the redraw after exiting some apps...

With animations on 0.5 the redraw is there. With animations off it works well. Any idea how to accomplish this without turning animations off?

Never mind it still does it even with animations off.

I think people don't understand that isn't lag going into the home screen. The problem is that once we are on the home screen, the widgets basically reload themselves and we have to wait for that

Yeah, this is a confusing thread for me.
So, one or more people didn't know that there's a set delay to get back to the home screen when you click the Home button, because it's waiting for a potential double-click to start S-Voice - and, that the double-click feature can be disabled.
The main point seemed to be what you described: moving to a screen with widgets causes them to refresh their contents. I admittedly found this point odd because I have NEVER seen such symptoms on my Galaxy S III (unrooted, stock). Power saving is turned off on my phone and the only Developer option which has been changed is enablement of USB Debugging.
Is this happening for particular widgets, perhaps?

No idea. Unless their widgets are set to update every time it's viewed as opposes to every four hours? That's my best guess is people having it set to update constantly

[Q] Edge screen pops up while in other apps and won't go away

So I've had the Note edge for about a week now. Now all of a sudden when I'm in the messaging app or eBay or most any other app. If I accidentally activate the edge screen it will not go away unless I exit the app I'm using and reopen the app. I have the Samsung wallet case I don't know if that may have something to do with it I didn't notice it before the case. Why is there not a setting to time it out. JUST AS I TYPED THIS I GOT A NOTIFICATION AND THE DAMN SCREEN WILL NOT GO AWAY. Anyone else having this issue or how can I fix it. I may just trade it for the note 4 if I can't resolve this.

There is a time out setting for the edge panel.
But what launcher are you using and have you tried removing the case and seeing if it happens.
Also what notification is it?

What launcher? What is that? Also I have not tried to remove the case and it does it in any notification or if I accidentally bring up the edge screen. and where is the time out setting

Since your unsure I would say it's the stock one.
And the settings are under
Settings > edge panel > information stream > time out.
if that doesn't work you can try to go into
Manage application and find cocktail and clear the default.
It will ease your edge panel settings

Move it out of your way.

There should be an option to remove it. That's stupid to have to move a box around the screen. I have been able to swipe it a few times and take it off the screen but I cannot figure out exactly how I did it. Also problem resolved on my other problem I had to factory reset. not a good sign after I've only had the phone a week.

PSA: Accessing Hidden Menu Will Break Knock-On

Based on this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-v10/help/knock-to-wake-t3239674
So far it's only a confirmed suspicion, but it's already happened to several people including myself. Accessing the hidden menu may break the knock on feature, even without doing any modification in it.
Possible Solutions:
-Hard Reset (100% working)
-Deleting Finger Prints (I've only seen this working on 1 person in another thread)
Please report if this has happened to you and if you've done something else to solve the issue. Thanks!

I go in the hidden menu a couple times a day to change RAT selection and have only had one issue. So I wouldn't say it's a 100% the hidden menu

Nope, doesn't break it. Been in the hidden menu to access Engineering Mode a bunch of times already and knock-on works fine.

Went in there to unlock the APN fields. Knock-on works fine.

Guys, it only breaks, as I stated in another thread, if you open the IMS Settings (which causes a crash) in the hidden settings menu. It is 100% reproducible, but *ONLY* that setting causes the issue.

Nope that didn't break it either

@baymon - Funny how everyone notices this until you post a PSA about it then everyone has to try to rebuke it.

If it "breaks" (turns knock on, off) you can use the anycut type app from the play store and make a shortcut to the hidden menu knock on option to toggle it back on or off if you so chose (I turned mine off so it would stop turning on in my pocket).

Obviously we need more data on this issue, there could be other variables in play as well but that's why we're raising the awareness of the knock on issue.

I'm anxiously awaiting everyone now saying their knock on is broken ?

Didnt break mine! Thanks for the info to get into hidden menu though

nope mine still works but i do have issues with the screen in calls but thats it. but but was that way when i got it.

i think your hidden menu theory is good but my knock doesnt work but it stopped after i did a rest because the apn got messed up and it wouldnt let me add a new one. so i found this out this problem seams random as hell and if i turn knock pattern on to unlock the phone the knock works to turn the screen on but not off. i also noticed my second screen doesnt have the flash light on it when off anymore. so i will be doing a reset tomorrow unless anyone knows how to get the secound screen apps back when the screen is off. i think those apps are related to the tap on

It did break mine. Went to menu and hit apn unlock. No crash or anything. I noticed it not working immediatly. Knock code does still work.

I had the issue also, then did a reset. But I want to add to the issue that it didn't only effect knock on, but the touchscreen didn't register anything altogether when screen off. Meaning, the second screen can swipe when screen off to show the quick toggles, it did not work during that time.

mines the same no quick toggles

Mines the same no quick toggles but i found the answer with out rest on another post. i figured it out that its just something crashing the hidden menu doesnt matter what even force closing causes this problem. which is what i did seeing that the first time i used it nothing happened but the second time when the problem happened i cleared all apps and it stopped working. i'm guessing they disable it if something crashes it.
the knock on actually just gets turned off. Here's the quote for the answer make sure both knock on settings are on and it works instantly so no reboot needed.
