Hello,
I was wondering if it is possible to change the lock screen on the Captivate to the default android lock screen.
Right now (default) it has a transparent grey rectangle that must be dragged off the screen, but I would much rather have the stock Android unlock (with the green slider).
Any tips are appreciated.
most roms have multiple lock screens to choose from...

I have the stock rom, and I don't really want to switch roms. Is it possible to change without changing roms?
Second that .. but don't we gotta be deoxed?

Is there a way to remove the stock unlock screen so I don't have two while using widget locker? I would want to maintain my numeric lock.....I tried searching for a setting and don't see a way

after installing widget locker, you should not have your stock lock screen anymore. this is supposed to replace that....at least thats how it works on my phone.
Weird, cause I have both

I'm pretty sure it works by essentially creating another "launcher" or "homescreen" on top of your actual launcher (Sense, LauncherPro, ADW.Launcher, etc) that just shows up everytime you unlock the device. Think about QuickDesk, same principle.
U can always delete the htclockscreen.apk via adk
I read that if you remove that one that it gets replaced by a vanilla one??

Yes but it's not as simple as that. What happens when you do that is you end up with a messed up Vanilla lock screen... you can see what I mean here

You need to go a few steps further (as detailed in the website) to fix it
So I can either have two lock screens or just not use widget locker, from what I can tell by trying it out.....having two is defeating the purpose though...

Widget locker should disable the lock screen if it's set up
Sent from my HERO200 using XDA App
Yeah, I get that...just wish it worked lol....legit, when I wake my phone, I slide the lock on widget locker, no password needed, then my regular lock screen comes up, I slide and then put in my 4 digit password....

Ah. Yes, I think if you have a security screen it does that. But not much you can do about it I think.

If you are running CM7 you can go into the settings for CM7 and disable the lockscreen but when I do that its weird. When I slide the slider it goes to my pattern security but right before that i see my homescreen flash. Its like a glitch. This happens all the time smh. I expected Widget Locker to be more efficient.
Hi all, as suggested, is it possible for this to happen? Do I have to install some app or mod for this to happen?
I want to do this because I want to have a lockscreen wallpaper in the glass lock while still keeping the security feature.
Thanks in advance!!

I think this is possible with widgetlocker lockscreen.. from what I can remember it lets you keep your default lockscreen along with the one it puts itself... so glass lockscreen from widgetlocker and pattern lock from your rom could work
Thanks for the quick reply
However that is a paid app and I'm still a student with no PayPal it credit card etc. Thanks anyway. Was just wondering if it was possible.

I believe that you can do this in CM7. Someone correct me if I am wrong.
So maybe I'm having a major brain.Gary and missing it someplace but can you not change the shortcut icons on the lock screen? Also, is the face unlock only a Nexus option or an ICS feature?

Face unlock works great for me I set time out to imediatly if that helps at all?

Yes, set it to immediately then it will ask for face or pattern unlock immediately after screen off.
The lock screen icons are the 4 shortcuts you have from the home screen shortcuts. Currently they are one and the same, and you cannot have a separate set for the lock screen.
When you change the dock apps they become the lock screen apps
Edited and erased because I'm dumb lol

Pirate Ghost has a custom ICS rom. check that out
Has anyone had problems with the lock screen widgets. I apply a widget but my phone won't unlock. When I swipe to unlock it just go right back to the lock screen. It just loops over and over. The only way to unlock the phone is to swipe on one of the shortcuts on the bottom of the screen to go to app from the shortcut but not the home screen.

No problems here....which widget did you use? I just used Google Now Cards and its working for me just fine.
Yep, happened to me too with dashclock widget. Will download a new lock screen to try. Probably a stock android one on the play store.

Looks pretty bad yeah, I used the analog clocks instead, still doesn't look good. But the problem is the widgets are not clickable. I read something about them not being scrollable too, which may explain why they're not clickable. I'm looking for a lock screen replacement that allows for widgets but no dice yet. Only that ugly lockscreen widget app.

Yep, that's what I mean. That's the problem I'm getting. They offer like 7 different lock screens yet they don't offer the stock android one. Still looking for a replacement lock screen. If anyone has any ideas let me know.

To add lockscreen widgets, go to settings > personalize > lock screen and change it to widgets
Any widget I used gets stuck in a loop and I can't unlock the phone. I had "battery widget reborn" and when I try to place it even on the home screen it locks the screen and it gets stuck. Maybe it's a bug in "battery widget reborn"?

I noticed to get the widgets to work, you have to drag down on the widget (you'll see a blue box being dragged down,) then you should be able to use it.
I ended up getting widget locker. It's actually pretty awesome. Thanks to HTC's 25 bucks haha. 3 bucks ain't so bad either. Now I have a stock lock screen with better widget support.

I figured out the problem. I had to uninstall "battery reborn" app. It was causing a glitch in the lock screen. My widget now works like it should.

Hi, I'm using ViperOne 5.0. In Viper tweaks I can enable AOSP lockscreen. After that, I'm greeted by a lock screen with a "lock" icon in the middle that needs to be swiped right to unlock the device. There's also two more shortcuts that appear upon pressing the "lock" icon. One for the phone app and one for sms. The one for sms doesn't work whereas the one for the phone actually unlocks the device and opens the phone app.
How can I change these shortcuts? Adds some and redirect the broken sms icon?
Thanks
