Hey all. Somehow, certain wallpaper on the lock screen looks like [email protected] I mean it has those banding/gradient/blotchy appearance (especially dark/black ones). Although, when I view on the gallery it looks fine, and even if I use it as a home screen wallpaper it's okay.
Is this a problem with my screen or something else? It's just on the lock screen though, so I'm a bit stump on what's going on.
Thanks.

You can fix that by installing WidgetLocker.

I love widget locker, but I use a pattern lock on my screen, I and up doing twice the work opening my phone. Unless I can lock my phone with widget locker?
Thanks.

Nope, WL doesn't support locking. So what's it going to be? Safety or great looking blacks?

lol. I'll stick with safety...
Like I've said earlier, some wallpaper doesn't exhibit this anomaly...So I'll use those, of course, as always the case, the one wallpaper that I really want to use is the one that looks like crap. lol.

Not gonna lie, that lockscreen is pretty slick. What would we have to do to bring that look to Android?
Man, i would love to have a lockscreen like that.

He said on his Twitter that that is a modded version of WidgetLocker. I might look into that. Thanks, br0seph.

Was quite simple.
Can this be made into a clock widget?

Yea search for ownskin on the market. Then using that app, search "metro ui". Theres 3 words at the bottom of the wallpaper, but you can easily remove it by editing it
Tried that, in ownskin there's nothing to be found when searching for "metro ui" even just "metro" gets no result

Yepp. Can`t find it.
guys, ownskin will only list the wallpaper that suit your phone screen size. so the wallpaper created by sofox must be same as your phone screen size then you can find it.....
anyway the easiest is to try make it yourself one, it is rather easy. try it at http://www.ownskin.com/livewallpaper

Damn. I can`t get it to look right, it keeps getting messed up.
Nobody else want to give it a shot to make this into a widget or a wallpaper? With the black background I bet this would look really awesome on an OLED screen
I liked it.

It's great. I love the qwerty KB on it.!
Anyone know if its coming out in the UK anytime soon?
Of course. The 'nine sixteen' is a clock. I totally did not get that the first time I saw it. You may be able to achieve something similar with 'make your own clock ' widget.

Would like an apk for that if possible same as we got for motorolla oneone
Sent from my Nexus S using XDA Premium App
I think that isn't a home screen its a lock screen. Although I thought it looked pretty awesome when I first saw it and having that lock screen in portrait would be cool.
Can I get rid of the Touchwiz wallpaper?
Or I can need some sort of theme manager?
Thank you.
blackground
I use this as background.
search on market for wallpapers apps.install-select wallpaper you like and hit "set wallpaper" button.
or search on samsung apps for pimpyourscreen .nice app with hd wallpapers!

Using this black wallpaper for the home screen made my phone snappier..Stock wallpapers much heavier i guess..However i cant use this as my lock screen wallpaper as it doesnt look as real black as i was expecting it to look like it used to on my SII. I dont know but it looks like a really really dark grey color and i see some horizontal lines appear when i touch my finger on the screen (lock screen)! Dunno if my phone's screen is problematic or if it's normal!
Download 'colors' from the market. It's free. Set to all black. It's the first thing I do on an OLED screen due to power conservation.

so to get a black background you want another app running and one that needs permission for NETWORK COMMUNICATION for FULL INTERNET ACCESS. really?

If you are referring to "colors," you can remove your tinfoil hat. I've used it for years and it's great. Nothing to worry about.
But eh, whatever. It's a fast and easy way to set to pure black X000000
I use an app called no wallpaper by Mihai Preda.

I learn a lot from you guys. I did not realize there are so many ways to do it. I now use "single color" app to set home screen and lock screen to black.
really not one at all???? isn't that like standard to have a album or photo widget
I actually miss the photo widget too. They pulled a lot of widgets I used to use.

Along with system apps I don't want, I usually delete stock widgets as well. Why would you want that crap slowing your phone down? Just place a shortcut to the gallery on your home screen.

I believe you can get a usable htc notes widget on the d3rp rom.
I do miss the tasks widget. I like the htc app, but have to use a gtasks widget now.

IMO, I think they've taken a lot of the widgets that weren't as mainstream as they used to be off. This was all part of the design process to slim down Sense.

Which is beautiful. I love the striped down, minimalistic look. But... Photo widget.
Sent from my HTC One
I agree and that photo album widget or whatever it is on the lockscreen says you can browse photos but I have yet to accomplish that without unlocking to home page :crying: Kinda useless on the lockscreen in my humble opinion. I guess a developer could tweak it so it could be put on a main screen but then again I don' see any user options either. Uh...
There are a couple in the playstore that are kinda cool. I have been keeping my eye on this one and it looks promising as far as user options and tweaking. It looks like it recently got tweaked for 4.2.2 so it is up to date in that regard. I am going to check it out and see how it runs on 4.1.2.

Ah yes, Photo Grid widget. I used it on AOSP ROM's for a while. just wasn't quite the same though. haven't used it in a while though, maybe some updates did it some good, I'll try it again I guess.
I did try that photo grid and it is pretty cool. It did appear laggy a few times and it did force close a couple of times. Hopefully we can get our phone updated to 4.2.2 and then this will be a great option. Anyways we gave it a try....
Share home screen here. Not much customization available natively but I'm hoping that changes once more users get their devices. Here is the stock look.
Decided to use smart launcher to customize my home screen. Here's the current set up. Just in a violet mood this week I suppose.
Stock wallpaper

I'm still rocking smart launcher. Went a direction that better used the nice screen on this phone, as opposed to my purple theme previously.
