Nah, that's too much iPhoney
Ah great, Lockbot Pro does the job perfectly!
I use widget locker - not only does it have android/sense style lock it also lets you add widgets to the lockscreen

This is nice. Thank you for the info.
Tried the free version. It is thousand times better than the stock in SGS. Looks right, feel right, sounds right!
Edit: noticed that a soft reset disable it and I need to rerun lock 2.0. Is this the same for the paid version?
how hard would it be to make a update.zip to change the lock screen? and would it be possible to make an eclair like lockscreen with the touchwiz 3 music widget?
THAT be awsome

Thanks for this, loving my new widget locker.
It seems that Lock 2.0 is sometimes "killed" by the OS, and that means the lock that screen reverts back to stock. Is there a way to prevent that from being undone?
Sorry for just pushing this up, but im still looking for the stock lockscreen, maybe someone has found a way to use it already

Changing Wildfire Lock Screen?

Hi guys im new to the forum and, i dont know much around. Could you guys tell me how i could change the lock screen to standard 2.2 Froyo lock screen? I dont want to use the Sense lock screen and i have already tried out lockbot which fails to work miserably.
Thnx Guys ^^
Damn thanks button..., try widget locker, you can also mod it as well if you want to.
Thnx for replying but unfortunately i cant pay for it. Is there anything for free except widget locker and lockbot free?

I'm sure you'll be able to find it on google or on the internet somewhere , and lockbot is crap imo.
Also the widgetlocker website allows you to pay for it via paypal. http://teslacoilsw.com/widgetlocker
I've got default android lock screen by using wildpuzzle + remove htc widgets package.
Just wondering weather to use widget locker or try and mod this one.
Kevin, do you think widget locker will work better without the htc lockscreen?
i shyed away from it in the past because it would show up when screen was locked and unlocked within the 5secs...
Yes it works perfect with the stock android lockscreen, it never shows up after i unlock widget locker.
Just don't forget to enable 5 second root rule just in case.

A lot of thnx for the link and I really appreciate the replies, just one more thing how can i install app to my phone from the computer?
first go to settings -> applications and enable uknown sources....then copy the app to your sd card ...when you do all that use any file manager and go to your sd card and find the app you want to install...then just click on it
use the market app to download a file manager if you dont have one jet
sorry for my english
I've tried the widget locker app, but after the unlocking, annoying animation of flying squares in shades of gray appears. is that normal? how to disable it?
Realy stupid, isn't it I was wondering myself what the hell that was, and when it was raining a saw a very crapy animation of droplets falling on my screen. So the square thing is a weather animation - i think it's supose to tell you that it is cloudy outside
Just look in the setting, you will find an option somewhere where you can choose to show the animation at every screen, show it just when unlocking the home screen or disable it.
Erwin
Why you dont use WidgetLocker Lockscreen v1.2.8.1 ...you can find it on web for free and if you dont I send it to you!
oh so that was the weather animation...thought it was a bug, thnx!

[Q] Lockscreen HELP

I want to use my lockscreen widgets on jelly bean but I cant because my work email forces me to use a pin to unlock my phone. Is there any way to workaround this? Just thought I'd ask. Thanks

I use a pin (and face unlock now) and can use the widgets just fine (swipe right to left for camera and left to right for my shopping list)

Just add the widget and on the lock screen swipe down to remove the pin-pad and show the widget.

It doesn't let me add widgets. It just shows the pin input. I can't even choose any other way to unlock my phone besides pin and password it sucks.

[Q] Access Camera from lockscreen without having to unlock

Not sure if this was addressed already but is there ANY way, even if the device needs to be rooted, for the camera or apps to be accessible through lockscreen without having to unlock similar to IOS?
Any help would be greatly appreciated

You can download this right here and have the iOS 7 lock screen which you can set up the camera up to it. Also if you don't put a pass code on your phone you can have widgets on it and you can pull your camera up from there as well.

Can't you just setup a PIN in your phone then enable the Camera to appear as a Lock Screen Widget from your lockscreen?

if you setup a PIN to unlock you phone you can't have a lockscreen widget besides the clock, but if you set just swipe to unlock, you can add more widgets to your lockscreen ( if you enable multiple lockscreen widgets on settings->lockscreen). Just swipe down when you're on lockscreen and then swipe from left to right to add more widgets

But will this give me access to the camera without first unlocking my phone?
This seems to be a big problem with the S4
I use widget locker. It will give you what you're looking for and worth every penny.

REQUEST - Customizable Stock Lockscreen

Hello fellow G2-Users,
One thing that bothers me with this great phone is the lack to customize the stock lockscreen. For example display calendar and weather, changing the clock etc. I know there is WidgetLocker and other apps but i want to keep the great unlocking animation from the stock lockscreen and of course knockoff from lockscreen.
Who else wants this?
Who can make this possible?
THX

I'm using a PIN code for security, so that changes things a bit. On that version of the lock screen, you can swipe from the left and add widgets. Stock lockscreen.

Thx for your suggestion!! iam aware of that and it is also avaible without PIN security. But i want to see my next appointment and weather on the main lockscreen and change the (ugly) stock clock.
Try "Android Weather" app. It has the features you mention, you can make the widget transparent if you want, and it can be added to the lockscreen.
