I am running the latest Froyo Cognition rom. I would like to disable the lock screen and use just LockBot from the market. As it stands not when i activate LockBot with the lock i choose and the phone locks i have 2 locks i must slide to open the phone.
Anyone that could help i would be grateful.
No Lock from the market is what i use.
Thanks! I should of known there is an app for that
No Lock not working
I tried No Lock, but I still get both lock screens?

I love my newly rooted Aria... I do however miss my lock screen. I loved having the Aria lock, where you pull the whole lock screen down to get to your apps. With CM6 you get the slide bar to unlock. It's not terrible, but I'd really really prefer to use the old Aria lock screen... Anyone know if this is available anywhere or how I go about doing it? Thanks in advance...
Someone correct me if I'm wrong but I BELIEVE that lock screen is sense ui and since sense (that sounds weird) is proprietary it cannot be added to CM6...there are however many lock screen apps that will allow you to choose something remarkably similar to the sense lock screen...widget locker is one of them.
Also, how did you manage to get the slide? When I unlock (bring my phone back from standby) it just shows me my visible dots for unlock pattern and once I enter that brings me to my home screen...

Hm, did you try just disabling your lock pattern? It's either in the CM6 settings or the ADW Launcher settings. By default after I rooted my phone the lock screen was a little slider bar, not like the iphone slider, it was a little tab on the left of the screen and when you hold it you slide it to the right. I ended up just disabling my lock screen completely but would go back to the old sense lock if I figure out how. I do remember reading somewhere that disabling the dot lock pattern will default to the slider lock screen, should work for you.
Hi all,
Is there an app out there that allows track ball wake to lock screen?
I tried "No Lock" but after with the "Locking Enabled" I can't wake with the trackball.
I also tried "LockBot", which goes to it's custom slider lock screen; however, if it's password lock screen is enabled, trackball won't wake the phone.
What I am looking for is just purely trackball/volume wake, and sliding or password (if enabled) lock screen remains unchanged.
Is there such an app out there (free coz I can't access paid market)?
And is there a widget that can just off the screen?
Thanks.
p/s- my power button no longer works.
I use Lock Enabler to sleep the screen, and Quick Boot for restarts, boot in recovery, etc

Get LockMyDroid from the market.
It was a casual app developed by someone here on XDA. No trackball lock, but long press of search. You get used to it, trust me.
Alternatively you can put a shortcut to it on your homescreen.
Thanks for the comments.
Still doesn't work for me because pressing the trackball doesn't take me to the slider screen.
If you have Cyanogenmod then you can go in settings and set it to where you can wake the screen by pressing trackball.
Best lock screen app I've tried is Lock Now. Haven't had any issues with it - really worth the investment (I'm not the developer ).
What ROM are you running? If it's stock or a largely stock based ROM (MCR for example) you can apply this patch: Link. Basically this will enable trackball wake without any programs.

There's the problem. Most all custom roms will do exactly what you want.
I tried this app out, and it is really cool.

Being able to pull the thing anywhere to unlock is nice
But the nicest thing is having the ability to pull 1of4 apps into the center and it unlocks to that app(def awesome for the camera)
However...here's the issue. It's an app, that means it needs to always run(memory/battery hog) and, my AOSP Lockscreen starts first, i unlock that then the Ripple Lock comes up.
Or...pretty much any lockscreen that has the ability to unlock to a specific app would be awesome
Does anyone think they would be able to make a mod to turn RippleLock(or similar) into the default main lock screen, not an app??
ok.... this thread seems a little bit dead...
Never mind, but let me tell you that I like your idea, unfortunately I am not able to this so but it sure would be great if someone really did look into this
Here is how I got it to work.
1. Stop ripple lock.
2. Disable stock lock screen with "No Lock" from the market and reboot phone.
3. Start ripple lock.
Hope that helps.
Thanks for the great lock screen

Thanks guys! I've been looking for something like this.

Thanks guys, this app is really cool. Also, ripple lock 2.5.5 has a "fix double lock issue" setting. Haven't tried it yet cause I already downloaded and am using the No Lock app that K0G suggested. When I'm out of class I'll uninstall No Lock and try that function.
Is there a way to disable the lock screen permanately and use a lockscreen app?
...another thought?
"On certain devices that use their own customized user interface such as HTC Sense, Samsung TouchWiz etc., the stock Android lock screen is usually present but overridden by the version provided by the manufacturer." ...any way to turn of the touch wiz screen lock and use the stock android lock screen?
Flash a custom ROM...most ROMs allow you to change the lock screen to other ones that are baked into/preloaded on the ROM itself.

most lock screen applications like widget locker have a built in option to disable your default lock screen
No Lock from market.

No go with no lock. I tried it, but still the glass slide is there after I unlock with the app.

Try widget locker it has a setting to disable the stock lockscreen. Also cm7 has this option in settings>cyanogenmod settings> tablet tweaks>disable lockscreen.
If anyone still needs an app for this. I just grabbed 'No Lock Screen' from the Market, and it works like a dream, no problems/issues.
So I'm trying to use alternative lock screens like Picturesque and Next Lock Screen on my Nexus 6 running Chroma ROM.
This doesn't seem to be ROM specific.
I have a PIN, and I use Smart Lock with a pebble and locations for work and home.
On both lock screen apps, when I swipe to unlock I am presented with another lock screen, the stock lock screen, so I have to swipe a second time.
So Next lock screen - I swipe down to unlock, then I'm presented with another lock screen with notifications on it, where I have to swipe up to unlock (stock lock screen).
This is likely user error, but I can't figure it out how to only use 1 lock screen. Thanks for the help!
In android settings > security don't you just need to set the lock screen to none?

I guess without doing that only the 3rd party lock screen will be visible. Tried with go locker. Never had this duplicate luck screen issue. Though I used to have such issues with my galaxy s3 sometimes with a specific lock screen app.

That would work, but then I would lose all security on my phone (no pin unlock as a result of setting no lock screen).
This happened on other ROM's so I don't think it's specific to Chroma, but nobody else seems to be having this issue..?

Maybe you need a custom rom. Some have the option to turn swipe off when a PIN / Pattern is applied. At least on KK they did.
IMHO< The stock lock screen is too good to pass up so maybe not many people have tried. Or maybe some lockscreen apps seek to use root to turn off stock swipe (again they used to try)
I guess I'm going to hope this issue is fixed with 5.1.
