Unlock with G button or volume controls - LG Optimus Black

I don't know how many of you know this already, but anyway i found a way to unlock my OB with G button and volume controls.
Here's what I did: 1) Downloaded an app called No Lock from the market. Then I disabled the lock entirely.
And there it is, no lock screen anymore and you can open your phone with the G spot

Sorry,but this is verry stupid app
excuse me

just edit the keylayout and it's done, no need to remove the lock

[Q] Unlock screen

Hey guys,
I don't like the unlock screen of LG and want to uninstall it and then install another one like Simply Lockscreen or something else... I find the current LG screen slow, so that's why...
Somebody knows how to do this?
Thanks!
Why uninstall?
Just install goto lockscreen or whatever you like and make default. Stock never shows
Sent from my LG-P990 using XDA Premium App
Is it possible to have none at all? Couldn't find it.
I think you can remove the apk with root explorer from system, but that is not within my knowledge... im having no problems with goto lockscreen though... disables stock, but you need to use GOTO lockscreen then

Tried to find the apk but dont know the name, I also want to remove the stock lockscreen

Just pull No Lock from Market, then you can toggle Lockscreen on off with a widget... Free and functional
i've just installed goto lockscreen but i've a problem, if the phone stay in standby for some minutes when i try to unlock with volume buttons don't function and i must use the power buttons. there's a solution?!
sorry for my bad english.

Your English is good.
I have the same problem with WidgetLocker... no solution...
I tried this app, Screen Tools 1, able to disable the lockscreen & it is able to activate itself during power up.
Is there any way to totally remove the default lock screen and use the stock android one? I hate it cause i can‘t use 3rd party messaging app as it will always show how msgs i have on it and need to enter into the default messaging to clear it..

Screen Timeout \ Sceern Lock window.

Hi ALL,
I know this is Galaxy S I9003 Android Development but since we do not have saperate Section I am posting here.
I have Two issues
1. I have selected "None" for Screen lock in Settings-> Location and Security. still i see this ( <<<<<xxxxxx>>>>> ) type of screen lock some time after time out. I want to remove this. My phone is rooted and on XXKB33.
2. I usally set Screen Time out at 15 Seconds. It automatically goes to 1 Minute.. What can be the issue.? I use LockMenu Where i have set time out as 15 secs.
can anyone pls help me resolving these?
thanks

For the first issue the only way to change the lockscreen to default android lockscreen is to modify system files... look at my other post with vanilla lockscreen.....

Here you can not deactivate the screen lock. You can only change security settings like password, PIN or pattern lock. If you select none, you will not be asked to input any of those after sliding the screen to open it. But lock screen will still be there.
lockscreen wallpaper
hi! i'm new. i just want to ask, how do i even activate my lock screen? rephrasing that, do i even need to activate my lockscreen for samsung i9003?

The responsability of screen lock is android.policy.jar and framework-res.apk... maybe try to restore again that files... one question... have you tried app from market that enable lock screen like: screen off and lock? (I'm not sure about the correct name). Another question.... but the lock-unlock button works?

I applied from the default stock Indian fw! And yeah I did try the few apps from market called lock screen it seems to work only at times!!! :-( and no the power on/off button only turns off screen but doesn't lock!

Replace Lockscreen w/ Widget Locker, Completely

I've got Widget Locker installed and it's extremely better than the default lockscreen. The only issue is the delayed and sometimes inoperable "auto swipe" feature. It likes to work if it isn't in landscape mode.
Is there any way to remove the stock blur lockscreen and replace it with Widget Locker without using easy-wake?
Edit: I'm using Maverick v4.5 if it makes a difference.

I found a way to disable the lockscreen! Please see my thread and hit the Thanks-Button if it worked for you.

But that will also remove the pattern lock from stock. (right??)
I tried numerous apps and hacks to remove the stock lockscreen while remaining pattern lock. There's one app that does it but there's always a delay or glitch.
The one who thought you need to unlock 2x when using pattern is retarted

It's pretty standard procedure for touchscreen devices, isn't it? My iPad makes me swipe to unlock then type in my lockscreen passphrase almost all of the time, as does my iPod Touch.
I prefer it this way, actually. Muscle memory always has my thumb poised to swipe to unlock, and it's easier for me for the procedure to be consistent rather than different when the pattern lock time has passed. It's also easier when I need to tel my wife what to do when we are driving and I get a text message...

No it's not normal. Entering your password/pattern lock already unlocks your phone - there's no need to do a swipe before that.
If only widgetlocker had it's own built-in security features

Close, but this removes the passcode/pattern/password lock. Its almost the same as using the easy wake option without hardware buttons waking the device.
It might not be possible but I'm looking to keep the passcode if it is.

Even with widgetlocker it's still a bit buggy/glitchy. Pretty often the stock lockscreen comes up for me or it flashes for 1sec. Very annoying.
Also when you draw your pattern wrong it will always show the stock lockscreen.
I wish there was a way to JUST remove the lockscreen blur slide screen, without removing the security features
Widget Locker bugs out on me too. It sometimes seems to skip the lock screen and auto swipe on my pass code screen, pushing a bunch of numbers.
Either way, I'll just SeekDroid my phone for security and use Widget Locker until I find a better solution.

Yes this can be done with stock launcher. (.350)
Does not work on pin, only on swipe to unlock. (So no code has to be entered to gain acces to the device.)
Music and Camera will be present there.
Sadly I could not find a way to remove or add things to help the OP.
Kind regards, Stefan.
The camera shortcut won't show up if you have a security lock screen on. Only if you have the swipe lock screen.
Is that your issue?

Not shortcut, as in a shortcut like you place on your home screen. It's part of Sony sleep-to-snap feature. There is a camera icon on the lock screen (on the right of the time display) that you can swipe left to directly launch camera (without unlocking your phone and accessing it from the menu/home screens). This makes it possible to capture those shots that only last a moment.
On the left side of the time display is the music icon. You drag that to the right to access music controls.
Checkout the screenshots below (they are Xperia V, but thanks to Sony's unified UI, looks the same). Hope this helps. If it does, hit thanks.

Open the camera app and go onto the settings and enable Quick Launch, that should do the trick.

You are right cassywilliam
I had the same. I have found that when I upgraded the software it came back again and then disappeared again after a few days (I think this had to do with utilizing an 'Exchange' email account. I have now deleted the Exchange account (which has various security conditions attached to it) and then basically messed around in the security settings for setting to swipe (with quick launch activated in the camera) and then back to PIN and the camera in the lock screen is back again!!! Its been there and stable for several weeks now... give it a go!

About shortcuts
Does anybody know how to add some shortcuts to the 'Home Button'? When you longpress the 'Home Button' you have a shorcut to Google Search, can you add more shortcut to that ring?
Thanks
Yeah, I would be curious to know if the lock screen shortcuts can be customised, too!

Navbar in the lockscreen

Sorry if this has been asked before, but I'm on my phone at the moment and I'm still trying to figure out how to search just the xperia z forums using the xda app.
I don't really know what i did befofe this but suddenly my navbar started appearing in the lockscreen, I was wondering if anyone knew what might be the cause or how to fix this.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Did you flash any mods?
Are you using the original slide to unlock?
If you are using the Sony lockscreen but not the slide to unlock the navi bar will appear.

I found out what it was just now, it was the smart key app that lets you assign the key funtions of the headphones key.
I uninstalled the app and now the navbar is hidden in yhe lock screen.
Thank you for the help anyways
always back track what you did and you will solve the issue.

I had the same problem since I buy and because of you I've solved it!
Goodbye to Smart key and thank you very much! (from Argentina)
I had the same problem (see picture attached), but not in a million years I would have thought about smartkey app to blame for. The mystery was, that the navbar appeared on lockscreen just yesterday. The app was installed for weeks. Strange.
Thank you for finding out.:highfive:
