Hello
I wonder if it is possible to remove the texts of the icons in the Home Screen , without a program?
I don't think it's possible.
I use Launcher-Pro and there's an option to do it
Right, also you will get a bunch of new costumizations too.

Hi Guys,
I am NOOB to android and recently i have upgraded myself to Andro-ID ROM after using CM7 for a while . everything is good in this ROM except this Lockscreen which i love those CM7's ones. Anyone please throw some light to me on how to change a lock screen ??? I am unable to find an answer .. All the answer google providing me is to go for Widget Locker .Is there any way other that that ?
Thanks in advance !!!
yyeah..Widget Locker is gud if u want diff types of lock screen.. use dat..
Thanks but i am in a learning mode .. hence trying to understand how and where this locker screens are embedded inside ROM .. Hope we get some answer for that too !
What you want to do depends on exactly what it is you want to do (sounds paradoxical but hear me out).
CM7 lockscreen is the stock android lockscreen but with 2 additions, first they added the ability to see battery state always (not only when charging), the other is that they added music controls.
So if you want those features you'll have to code them yourself since they're part of Cyanogen's code.
If you want the look you'll be better using CM7 since the Rings lockscreen wasn't implemented until GB 2.3.7 and porting that would require that you build andro-id from sources.
Anyways if you want to try it, the lockscreen is contained inside /system/framework/android.policy.jar
thanks a lot .. will try and let u know guys if i am able to find anything!!!
use agile lock instead

hhhmm....
i'm newbie and want to try a widget locker
where i can get it?
Agile lock, ripple lock, widget locker, go locker (you can find this one in the go dev Web site)...
My opinion: don't use widget locker, you have to pay it and have root for some simple sliders, try and consider the others I suggest you...
For the first two: try the free version then, if you don't want to pay them, you can unlock for free just installing and running once the apps they suggest you.
Hope I've helped you man ;-)

thanks mate.. will try that soon and will update my xperience
if u want to mod the lockscreen, pull framework-res.apk from your system , in deodexed rom you can change lockscreen style (editting xml and image) without any additional apk needed.
Hi!
Is there a way i can change the standard stock lockscreen without installing an app?
Maybe with a theme...I don't know!
I'm on Django 0.7 with TWLauncher.
Thanks
without external app you have two choices
1. lg stock lock screen (swipe up to unlock)
2. aosp lockscreen (swipe left to right) has bug if u press the menu button it will unlock as well
to switch between them edit build.prop file and change the line user.feature.lock_andy=false will give u option 2 ; =true will go back to default.
the file is located under /system

i would say WidgetLocker is the best but not free.
also have a look at this website there are 11 ways to change the lockscreen
ripplelock is also quite good.

I think I'll go for widgetLocker!
Does it make a lot of ram-consumption?

While I like widgetlocker (and purchased it) I ended up not using it because it takes anywhere between 20-50MB RAM (depending on how many widgets you want to use) from an already small amount of RAM we have.
Without installing an app, you have a third lockscreen: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1314666

What about "Go Locker"? I was thinking of moving to "Go Launcher" so............is "Go Locker" less heavy on ram than "WidgetLocker"?
I use GoLauncher and GoLocker... very stable and smoother... today I play to personalise lockscreen and theme for home and app drawer in ICS Style... prrfect... I spend 1.5€ for to small apps to change this with GoLauncher... 3D efect are more and very smooth... and you can alway decided to revert to default launcher.

Hey guys,
currently, i´m using a rom with stock-themes.
i love the design from the 4 bottom button, but the menu is so bad. is there a mod, to create folders there? i know, GO launcher can create this, but i like the home-button-design from stock more than that.
s, hope you can help me
No, it isn't possible.
The latest Go Launcher has also the possibility of a 4 button bottom and it's very smooth and fast.

hmm.. i don´t only wanna have 4 buttons. i wanna have the lg-theme-buttons i heared about cm7 theme cusor?!
You can replace the dock shortcuts with the LG apps, so you can make nearly the same dock with lg icons.
can you send me a downloadlink for lg-icons? cannot find it
You don't need the icons. You can delete the dock shortcuts and drop the lg apps to the dock.
Try this,mate
sorry i cannot understand you. can you send me a private message in german ?
Hi guys, I would like to know if there is a way to add a widget in the lockscreen that displays the number of unread messages, and leads to them if clicked.
I mean something like on sgs2/3 stock rom (i don't remember if ace's stock had such a feature).
Thank you I'm advance.
PS: I'm on Apocalypse Rom, as my sig suggests!

Search play store for an app called "widget locker". It is a lockscreen replacement that allows you to design your own lockscreen, adding widgets, sliders etc. then just add one of the widgets suggested above.
let me know if this helped

Isnt the "GO" series generally known for high usage of cpu?
I have only tried GO locker when it was on beta, but not as a daily lockscreen...
Well, it doesn't no difference to my phone...performance and battery life still the same...

Buddy dont use any type of launcher except holo launcher as it saves battery next thing if u want widget for messages go to playstore hit widgets and messeging widget on lockscreen....... Or any lockscreen widget.........well enjoy buddy!!!!!!!!!
Instead of using such widgets i solved my problems with SMS pop-up app (as i wrote before). Very easy and more fast even than widgets!

Sometime, many lockscreen is not support add widget. You can download and install "Widget lockscree" from Playstore.
I've been hunting everywhere and I can't work out how to kill the emonui.
I hate the Lock screen most of all and want a stock version. I'm rooted and have xposed installed. I'm also on Nova and I have frozen what I think is the launcher but the lock screen is still there. I think it is linked to the themes but not sure.
Any help on this would be great.

Thanks for the reply. Am I correct to assume that the lock screen even with different themes will always be the huawei one? So even this way there is no way of getting the stock kit kat lock screen?
Cheers

I think, w/o being a pro, that you got it right there, you can only use programs as AcDisplay to get another lockscreen but you'll always have the Huawei one unless you install a custom rom.
Edit build.prop and change ro.config.hw_lockscreen=true to false
This worked on P6 so it should work on P7
