Rooted..want to remove "phone locked" screen - Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I have a Samsung Captivate Android 2.2 GalaxyS that is rooted....
When I turn the phone on a screen comes up that has "phone locked" on it and I have to swipe the screen to unlock the phone. Is there a way I can get rid of that "phone locked" screen and go right into the phone on boot?
Thanks

You can change it to a different style from application>display.

Don't see anything there!
Hi,
Thanks for the response it is appreciated. I do NOT see anything under display to change or turn off the screen swipe. I would like it to NOT be there at all....
Thanks

Try No Lock in the market.

No lock doesn't work
Hi,
Thanks for the suggestion. I tried no lock before and just now I tried no lock screen. It works as long as the phone is on so that if I just put the phone on standby and come back I don't have to slide the screen but if I reboot the phone the "phone locked" message come up and I have to slide the screen to unlock again. I want to get rid of the BOOT "phone locked" screen...
Thank you

Then you have to use smali and baksmali on the android.policy.jar. This is where the lockscreens reside. I don't have the knowledge to remove I just know where they are.

If it bothers you so much you might wanna try cm7 it has an option to disable the lock screen completely. But its up to you, I'm just putting my 2 cents in

I really don't think this is even possible (without serious edits to the policy.jar file like was said above me). Heck even the iPhone boots into the lockscreen where you need to swipe to unlock. It's really not that hard to flick your finger across the screen is it?

It is if you don't have fingers? Lol

I'm sure someone has done it... I tried looking a few months ago but gave up.

[Q] Galaxy s display

I have a problem with my Galaxy when I try to draw with any paint app can not use full display!
The problem is that always stays a white frame as shown in the picture!
Is this normal?
Sorry for my english using google translator!
Your fingers aren't pointy enough.
Can you try on your Galaxy and upload screenshot?
What app are you using? Let me try.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
The name of the app's "Painting"
Anyone just a screenshot, or at least test!?
Yay I found the solution! Click the hand in the painting app to adjust scale and bingo! Access to the entire page. Still not perfect but hey...

But it should work without any tricks or not?
Can you draw on your galxy to the edge of the display without any tricks?
No as the apps don't allow it. Nothing wrong with the phone, or your finger lol.

Actually I think I may be wrong about this. The phone does not seem to respond when the very edges of the touchscreen are touched!

I tried this app on HTC Desire and Acer Liquid, and on both I could draw to the edge of the display only Galaxy not!!
When I type the *#*# 2664 #*#* to get into test mode for display,
on the complete edge I have no reaction to touch i in a width of 10-15 pixel!

I can confirm this. Autodesk Sketchbook show the same problem!
If you want to draw with more accuracy, get a phone with Resistive Touch Screen.
I do not want to draw, drawing program is the only app where I can show my problem!
My question was, Is this normal and if someone else has similar problems?
Everyone with the phone has the same problem as you.

Buttons backlight on GB

Hi,
I find the fact that the buttons under the screen keep lit until you turn the screen off annoying. I often use the tab in the dark and even if you cover them up some of their light "contaminates" the bottom area of the screen, especially with dark images.
Is there any known way to get them working back as they did on Froyo? Maybe if someone could extract the old Froyo backlight driver I could try it on my tab...

I think its a great feature, especially for using in the dark as I often pressed wrong button accidentally. However I do think there should be some sort of setting to adjust when its on all the time and when its not etc.
Try an app called blinker I think from the market.

Battery problem

I am running sweet rom v5 and my battery has been draining pretty fast... Like about 20% in one night. I have bbs(better battery service), installed and I checked my kernel wake locks and there seems to be something called "powermanagerservice" that's been on from the time since I unplugged it from the charger.... Any suggestions as to what is the problem? Is it an app or is it the rom. Also when I was on Samsung stock jelly bean from Germany this same thing was waking up my kernel. Here is a screenshot:

Yes.I know mine was directly related to touch sounds screen unlock sound and basically kind of every sound that came out of the device.It shouldn't be a problem unless the audio out_2 minute counter keeps rising for no reason.

[Q] Is there a mod that allows delayed screen lock after it shuts off? Like Samsung?

I don't know the best way to word this, but on like the S3, S4, if the screen times out and shuts off, you have a few seconds to turn wake it up again WITHOUT having to swipe/drag anything...
Does that make sense? ha...
I want that...
That makes sense. It's built in the MIUI ROM on my Xperia S at least, would be interesting to see if there is an app for it.

An app would be nice too, I just don't want some 3rd party lock screen.. I like my Sense! I also love Viper so I don't really want a different ROM..

What you're referring to is actually under display settings, but regardless that isn't what I mean. I want it to automatically lock, but on the occasion that I'm not ready for it to happen, I want to wake within a few seconds without a drag. Like the galaxy phones.

On stock rom, I see it under security. But under display try changing sleep? Might be way off though

Ahh on stock that makes sense. Sleep just determines how long until the screen shuts off. I don't want to change that.

To be quite honest, the "lock after" option under Security does exactly what you're requesting (unless I'm misreading your post, which I doubt). However, that option only appears if you have some kind of security lock enabled, as opposed to just one of HTC's lockscreens from the Personalize menu.

Regardless, I still have to 'pull up to unlock' which is what I don't want to have to do if the screen JUST shut off.
I can put a vid of what samsung does I guess, since its tough to explain..
However I do appreciate the help attempts!

I own several Samsung devices, so I'm aware. You do know that there is the "No lock screen" option in Personalize that you can combine with a security lock, right?

Must just be the ROM I'm using then. If have no lock screen, I don't get any options for security lock. Also there is never anything in personalize.
I can disable the lock screen yes, but I don't want a security lock..
No security lock. Are you sure you know what I mean? No offense meant, but so far nothing has been relevant for what I actually want.
