Widget locker

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

How does widget locker work?

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.

Yeah, I use it so my girlfriend doesn't find out about my girlfriend lol

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.

[Q] Revert to default Android lock screen.

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.

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?

Full weather animations

Is this no longer an option with sense 5?
And the title should have said full screen weather animations.

No, this has been removed from what I understand.

Tap the Weather icon, and you will be taken to a full screen animation. But, full screen animation over your home screen, that is gone.

Ya those r the only two I liked. Rain was ok. But the frosted edges and lightning were the ones that I liked the most. Especially the lightning. The frost only came around once a year here in Texas if it lucky.

The only way is to install Beautiful Widgets and download the features package and on settings unlock animations.

That's true, but the sense version felt better. The BW version required you to tap the screen to get it to stop before you could use the phone, while sense would just make it disappear instantly without having to make that initial "exiting" tap

Yeah I know... I don't like beautiful widgets any more... I am hooked with Uccw instead.

There is a way to get the weather animations back but you have to change your wallpaper. Check in Live wallpapers and use the "Weather" one. It's pretty nice actually because it changes for day, night, rain, cloudy, etc. and the animation stops after a few seconds which I assume saves on battery drain. But you are locked into that wallpaper. Hope that helps.

4.3 Lock screen widget bug

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.

[Q] ViperOne AOSP lockscreen, how to change/add shortcuts?

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
