[Q] Toggle Sound On/Off ICS Lockscreen - XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there anyway to change the camera shortcut in the ics lockscreen for the sound toggle shortcut? I've seen it in roms for other devices but i dont know how they do it :/ I dont want to use any apps like widgetlocker or golocker
i hope you can help me or tell me where to look in the roms that i mentioned before
i'm using IScreamDX.
Thanks

It should be in
Cyanogenmod settings->lockscreen->style options->click on custom app starter.
Choose the app u want to show up.
Press THANKS if I tried to help...

i apologize for my english, i do my best xD but the thing i want in the lockscreen is the shortcut that switch between ring/sound mode(vibrate/ring/silent). And in Ice Cream Sandwich(4.0.4) you change the shortcuts from Settings->Interface->System (at least thats what i do). It's not an app(it can be done with apps like widget locker or golocker).
If someone can tell me where to look, or point me in the right direction XD

There is no cyanogenmod settings option in ics rom

Install different lockscreens?

Hey Guys,
Looking for some new lockscreens. Would really like the froyo 2.2 lockscreen from the droid x or D2. I like the looks of those slider bars.
Does anyone know if this is available or ones like it?
I dont know if its possible to replace the actual system lockscreens ... I know that WidgetLocker has those Motorola Froyo Lockscreen Setups, but well, its a external solution, the internal Lockscreen will not be replaced at all ...
one is called Lockbot

Awesome this is exactly what I was looking for. It works great, thanks for the tip, loving my new lockscreen now.
batmania15: since the latest lockscreen gestures update (in CM 0.04-10.11.29) I'm not using the unlock bars at all. You should check it out...

I tried the lockscreen gestures but didnt like them. I had one set for S and one set for B and everytime I drew the B it launched the one for S.
The default sensitivity was set too low, you could simply fix it for you by setting it to 3 or higher.
In 0.04-10.11.29, the default is now 3.

i think widget locker is a perfect choice
i m using it since i got the phone
While Widget Locker is a nice feature to have I think the Milestone just can't handle it. 256mb and if you throw a few widgets on it or a few widgets in your Launcher Pro/ADw, your home screen will redraw 24/7. I noticed like a 2x redraw rate with WidgetLocker. It's nice, but our phones can't handle it.
Need 512mb ram damnit.
sorry to hi-jack, but aren't you the Batmania15 from the MOTO Milestone support forums?
Any word on official FroYo?
i have another sort of question about lockscreen.
is there a way to have a picture on lockscreen different to the background picture?
You can set an alternative wallpaper i widget locker for the lock screen

Nadlabak,
The gesture lockscreen is great! Thanks for this.
Is it possible to use your gestures lock instead of standard Android visible pattern functionality? I mean to secure lock screen via gesture only. I ask because if you turn it on, then you can use gesture OR standard swipe unlock (so it's not securing the phone).
Thanks in advance for any sugestions!
Yes, you can turn off standard unlock slider option in the cyanogen settings.

[Q]removing/changing DEFAULT lockscreen?

hi, i'd like to know a way to change lockscreen
i've tried market software, as go locker and magic locker,
the first one, sometimes makes original lockscreen to appear
the second one, makes wake on a little slower
i know the best would be widget locker, but why spend 2 euros, when there isn't a 100% guarantee default locker won't appear? (in some comments on market, people say sometimes it appears)
using one of those software with a software like "no lock" or those who disable default screen, would be a good idea? there could be conflicts?
isn't there a way to eradicate lockers from framework, so problem is resolved, and those software can be used without problems?
(for what i have understood they add the lock effect to the launcher, so without a lockscreen would appear launcher directly)
i was also searching for a guide to make a customized default locker... but it seems an hard argument to find something on... couldn't find any guide on this particular problem...
i'm not just talking about wallpaper, those can be changed easily, talking about adding links to apps (dont think it would be difficult to copy the slider for unlocking, and make it an apk link or similar)
probably my searches are wrong, but i always found tutorials on how using market software like widget locker etc...
we can change anything in android, is lockscreen that hard to customize????????
thanks for replys
If you are rooted and using a CM7 based rom you can disable the default lockscreen completely so you won't have that problem widgerlocker is the best thing to use for what you are wanting. Go locker is what I use but they are still working on it and don't have custom app links

How, exactly? Would it apply to MIUI, too, which I understand is CM based?
Would this give me the option to unlock the screen only with a pattern, rather than with the MIUI unlocker first and then with a pattern?
Thanks
In CM7 you can go into CM settings--> tablet tweaks and check disable lockscreen ... I couldn't tell you about MIUI because it isn't available on my phone As far as disabling the lockscreen and still using a pattern to unlock I don't know what would happen because I don't use the pattern unlock .

[Q] Unread messages widget in lockscreen

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!

use "SMS Unread Count" from https://play.google.com/store/apps/...wsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5rYW5va2dlbXMuc21zd2lkZ2V0Il0.

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.

[Q] Lockscreen shortcuts

Is there anyway to remove or change the shortcuts on the standard lockscreen?
I find the camera just lags really bad is of little use so would rather just not have them there so that i can see more of my wallpaper
thanks
sorry just seen its in the wrong section...mod please move
thanks
Camera shortcut can be removed in Camera settings. Walkman can't. Lockscreen looks wrong with an icon on one side and not the other so I put the Camera back on.
Don't use either of them though.
hmm thats a shame then might need to look to a 3rd party one then, just worries me about the xtra battery drain that normally comes with things like this.
Would be great if there was a 3rd party one that would show unread email and texts etc also on the lockscreen
anyone suggest one?
Maybe holo locker... Its the original jb lockscreen

[Q] Custom gestures for Sense 5?

Does anyone happen to know of an app that would allow me to continue to use the Sense 5 Launcher and have a "swipe down" gesture command that pulls down the Notification Bar? I really want to try and use Sense 5 to at least give it a shot but I also want to be able to swipe down on the home screen to pull down the Notification Bar. (I'm so used to having this ability from other custom Launcher apps that I really don't want to give up that feature). If there's a way to tweak Sense 5 or an app I can install to just enable this one gesture command, I'd be happy. :cyclops:
Thanks to anyone who has any helpful suggestions, it is much appreciated! :fingers-crossed:
Did you solve ur problem?? I also want this app

No, I'm afraid I couldn't find anything that allowed me to do this. I caved in and put Apex Launcher on my One after realizing I also really needed to be able to use custom icons on my phone. (The default Sense 5 icon for the Phone app is awful (IMHO) and really looked bad with the other icons I have in my Dock).
You could try giving this a go...

Awesome! Thanks buddy!
If you're interested in gesture controls you may want to take a look at gmd gesture control. The app is quite amazing in what you can control by gestures anytime (not just on home).

You can have custom icons if your Rom uses xposed installer, with unicon
