hey i am using virtuous and love the message display on the lockscreen... im wondering tho is there any possible way i can use Gosms or chomp and have the same notification?....
i hate the sms app built into sense... so laggy personally ... if anyone knows if its possible... let me know
You could try using WidgetLocker LockScreen and put GoSMS 's Widgets where you want them.
I'm not sure why HTC's messaging app is lagging on your phone though. Its never really happened to me, not have I heard of any such incident. Granted though that Sense can be brought to lag relatively easily.

Hi does anyone think that an app could be developed to add the 3 button bar in sense ui to the launcher on stock g1s or could this app be implemented to a home replacement.
It's perfectly possible to make a sense-ui copy, but it's just a matter of doing it. Try getting in contact with someone who has already made a home replacement app and see if they will implement it.
Ok cool thanks for the reply
Is anyone willing to take on the challenge to create a sense ui clone
i think probably not... people are probably just gonna start telling you to get hero themes or roms lol
though i would also like SOME hero stuff.. not everything because having everything seems to slow the phone down..
Yh maybe but the reason I'm asking is because I like how the 3 button bar works and I also have a stock phone and don't really want to flash the danger spl
Anyone know where this app is?
I'm sure the challenge is over

It is the real one. Just version 2.0 not 2.0.1, but if you play with the .lockbot folder on the sd you can do some neat stuff.
i mean't it'sn ot the real one cause it doesn't spin all the way, and whatnot. but i GUESSS i'll see what's good with this 1 until i get a real answer to this thread
oh dang thanks for the post lockbot is amazing i love it
Thank you so much for posting twistedumbrella. I love this app!!

luma alock is that the one?
What makes it so different from the last one mentioned?
lockbot is sweet, it actually spins. spin one way to unlock and spin the ohter way to silent/vibrate, just like eclair lockscreen. i like it. plus a lot of customizable options you can do like rearrange stuff, change out icons, etc all within the app itself. much better than lock2.0.
I don't know if anyone else is having this problem, but popups from Handcent and SMS Popup no longer work while Lockbot is enabled.
It is pretty customizable. I did the lockscreen in my sig with it..

i have handcent and popups still works fine for me with lockbot enabled.
I guess it didn't work for me, because I have the popups set to be restricted. Once I put it on always allow, it works again. I actually went back to the Stericson Locksceen though and created a Metamorph to change the background whenever I want. Less problems and I don't have to have popups set to always allow (kind of annoying when I'm working on something).
ok.. so ive looked for and tested different messaging apps, like chomp and handcent, but i rly dont like em! i like sense messaging app, but i dont like that it uses avatars on every message thread, i saw a movie (http://www.youtube.com/user/pocketnowvideo#p/u/3/g2qor5UTgZ0 6.10 in the movie)
and i did like that message app, is that the original andriod? or is it just for nexus? or is it the 2.0/2.1 messaging app?
could that be implanted to hero? with sense?
well i made a mockup in photoshop kinda how i would like a messaging app to look like! do anyone think this would me possible?
i did this rly fast so not rly that serious! but i bet u get my idé
So here is my situation...
First, what I want:
I txt a lot, don't really call much. I want an extremely fast ROM. Light weight (I don't run many apps at all, Pandora, and uh...well thats about it), and not heavy on the theme. I'm happy with Helix launcher.
I also want the HTC dialer, I hate all the other dialers. I want the HTC dialer because I press numbers to spell names to call people. Only other dialer I found that does that is DialerPro or some garbage.
My problem:
My HERO is very very very very slow. With Pandora running sometimes it just locks up completely while still playing music.
If I am getting a txt or have justt sent one, there is a 5-10 second lag in the phone doing anything or responding at all.
Sometimes I can't unlock it, I try to draw the pattern and it doesn't pick up my touch Until half way through the pattern. This is the same with Swype, sometimes it doesn't pick up my swype until half way through, or sometimes it just ends it early.
Its really driving me insane. I don't honestly see how anybody would ever keep this phone if it was acting like this for everyone else. Sometimes I have to make calls in a hurry (God forbid I ever need to dial 911) and the phone just sits there and locks up, or lags horribly and skips numbers, or just force closes almost everything.
I have tried many roms. Currently I am on the CM6 2.2 (inb4 experimental) but I'm willing to try others. I have had the SAME problems on other roms.
I have also tried changing phones and have the same exact freezing and lagging issues.
So please, suggest a rom that is very light weight, allows me to use the HTC Dialer, and doesn't freeze all the damn time.

Not really one out there... for speed and lightweight I recommend aospMOD, but you'd have to give up the dialer. There's always dialer one, which is similar though
Do you use autokiller? Usually when people have similar problems to yours they don't run autokiller and when they do their problems go away. Give it a try. I would say aggressive setting in your case.

CM6 will fix all your lag, but you'd have to sacrifice your dialer. Are you sure you can't find a third party dialer that works for you?
Sense is very resource-heavy on any phone, so AOSP is type best bet.

Agreed, and dialer one can pick up some of that sense-like feel
If you really want the speed and responsiveness, you are likely going to have to leave Sense behind. Like others have said, an ASOP-based ROM (such as ASOPmod or CM6.1) would be the best bet. If you tried CM6 in the past, give CM6.1 a shot. At least for me, the move from 2.2 to 2.2.1 was a DRAMATIC improvement in the fluidity of the phone's responsiveness and 'feel'. Smooth as silk and buttery on top.
If possible, pair this up with a modestly overclocked kernel. I personally use Decad3nce's latest (11/12/10) CFS 768mhz kernel clocked @ 729 via the Deca battery mod. Once you set up the ROM, kernel, and battery mod - you should be golden.
Also of note, I do use LauncherPro, and run with JIT enabled and all the CM performance tweaks in place except for CompCache, which I leave disabled.
Good luck in your endeavors to remove the lag from your Hero - don't worry, it's definitely possible!
Hi guys,
How do I enable lockscreen notifications on my HTC One? I just moved from the iOS ecosystem where each Facebook/Whatsapp/Skype message that comes through gets placed on the lockscreen for the convenience.
I've been searching for it on Google and nothing is working for me. I want it to be ON the lock screen page, I don't want to slide over to the next page just to view it (by the way the sliding feature sucks like hell, its not very responsive).
PS. I'm currently using NiLs but it's not doing what I want it to do specifically. I have to slide over to another page, which is a terrible way to view the notifications.
Thanks!
I'm not sure how it works on stock android, but afaik, on stock KK sense 5.5 you can only view missed calls, sms, calender etc.
Theres no native support for WhatsApp, Skype, Hangouts etc on lockscreen which sucks. I wish Google would integrate this or work with them to integrate this. I think you can do it using DashClock widgets or something.
I have considered getting the next iPhone partly because of this feature.

I have the iPhone 5 and I moved to Android because of the better compatibility with Google Glass. Right now it's pretty hard to adjust to the HTC One because of the great and vast differences.

I am sure you'll get used to it. Out of my group of friends and people I know, majority of them are moving from iOS to Android.
To be honest I am the only one who's tempted to move to iPhone. The things I love about the iPhone are - mechanical switch on side for toggles (auto rotate or vibrate mode), nice small size (fits in hand nicely), notifications on lockscreen, apple care, iCloud, iMessages. One thing is also the way that Apple pushes updates to its phones, in one go.

I tried using DashClock but it still doesn't seem to replace the lock screen. I'd like it gone if possible, or if I could replace it...
Mate, try the ViperOne rom.
It have a tweaks for use the first widget page as default in lockscreen, in fact i'm using it with nils and now i'm trying dashclock
Now i have the notifications like the iPhone
