Hey...weird nobody asked this yet or notice the lack of it but...how can I see a pin/gesture to unlock my screen on marvel rom v9? because there is no "Security" option in the settings menu as it should...so how do I do it? I'm pretty sure there is a way.
found it
nevermind found it, it's just named "Location Service" instead. sorry about that

I have looked around the Droid 3 forums but cannot find it, perhaps my search skills just suck right now.
How do you remove the default Motorola lock screen? I use widget locker and every now and then I have to unlock the phone twice. It's pretty annoying. Anyone know how to do this?
I have rooted and ran the script to remove bloatware, as provided by mr. psousa. I need to donate!
And I know it says you're supposed to post Questions in the Q&A section... but I don't see one for the Droid3! Just 4 sections... general, accessories, development, and themes/apps.

There should be an option in WidgetLocker to disable the lock screen.
Thanks, I'll poke around in there more. I thought I saw that option awhile back (before I was rooted) but didn't know if I should look for something that wasn't there.
Edit:
Only saw the "replace lockscreen with Widget Locker when possible." In the past before I rooted it would sometimes make me swipe both screens but so far since rooting it hasn't asked me to do the default screen... let's hope it stays like this!

You can flash a different ROM. CM7 or CM9 (pre-alpha), or Liberty all have customizable lock screens. I had the same issue as you before I flashed to Liberty 2.0
There are root options in Widgetlocker, 'replace lockscreen with root access', or something like that. Not sure where the option is, don't have it installed.

That's the best way. I think its under advanced settings. I never had to double unlock

Install CM7 that I got from this thread ([ROM] CyanogenMod 7.2.4e (Android 2.3.7) [20121230])
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=941346
Everything works nicely other than I have no signal to network.
I'm pretty sure it has to do with the basebands but I am not sure which one I should flash.
I also read that there should be an option in advanced settings that should let me select different basebands, but I cannot seem to find advanced settings.
Just to be clear, do you have a Milestone, right?
The baseband selection should be there somewhere, look for Milestone Settings and/or Advanced Settings in the settings menu.

The baseband settings were under device settings......
I was so keen on finding "advanced settings" I completely looked over device settings.
I fee like such a moron. everything is fine now, phone is working WITH service.
Thanks for trying to help though. Much appreciated.

1 more question. I didn't want to create a new thread for such a small thing.
When I turn on the phone, before the CM7 boot screen I get a "2ndboot kernel restart progress" screen. How do I remove this screen from my phone startup?
Read this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1986076
If you delete that file then I think all you will see is a black screen instead so if you don't like it then replace it.

I thought the 2nd boot screen was slowing down my phones start up. I thought it had to load "reset the kernel" first and then load up CM7.
So from reading that post it looks like that splash screen before the CM7 load screen is necessary, and I can only change what that image(broken glass) is?

2ndBoot is necessary to load a custom kernel, as a way around the locked bootloader. Yes, the boot is a bit slower, but the new kernel makes it all worth it - way more stable, better performance, new features (swap) etc. The development for this phone has been nothing short of incredible.
Displaying that image doesn't need mush resources so by deleting it you would't even notice the difference.
If you delete the bootanimation.zip , which is the CM's bootscreen, you can see some speedup, but nothing significant.
Alright. Learned quite a lot from reading this responses and guides. Thanks for everyone's help.
hi there,
first i want to thank the developer of nemesis' i had my fears before flashing it, due to RTL that i was after. so great, its works fine.....and it runs good....battery life is good also, i like the themes too. but i have few questions:
1. i seen something about facelock option that was posted in the developer section first post where the rom dl is. what is that facelock? do i need 3rd party app for that or is something that i will find hidden in menu?
2. i'm from Israel and i guess since we do not have v30b or c only the v10e stock, i get a baseband unknown, but the phone seems to work fine, i get pretty good signal, and the call sounds pretty good too. can i do something about that? is there a way to find a closebaseband that would work? or should i leave it be like that ?
3. last thing, i like this rom but how the hack do i get rid off the annoying google search bar in my home screen, i had few launcher that had this option in menu and i had this option in few other rom i had fashed before, but here i cant seem to fine how to remove it.
sry for all those questios hope you guys can help those who know this rom.
best regards
Sol
Hi Guys,
Having installed the "GT-N7000_SweetROM_V6.0_LSF (1)" on my GT-N7000 Note, made it happen that "S-voice", if I want to work with it, is always giving the message: "No network connection, connect to networks and try again".
Trying to make sure that it was not my phone itself that caused this problem, I unrooted my phone and reinstalled its Stock ROM (N7000XXLSZ_N7000XENLS4_XEN.zip) again. Then, everything worked like clockwork again - so the ROM probably must have caused the problem...
My question, probably to the developers of this ROM (although the Note users themselves are also invited for suggestions), is if they are familiar with this "S Voice" issue on the GT-N7000 where "GT-N7000_SweetROM_V6.0_LSF " was installed? If so, could you please tell me what to do to have "S Voice" also work with this ROM? Does it have to do with my settings or should there be an update needed to have this problem solved? I really would love to have this ROM reinstalled again and hope you can hand me a solution. :fingers-crossed:
I hope to hear from you soon.
Greetings,
Robert,
Netherlands.

Thank you for your reply. I have been searching the internet but all I found was that this issue was regarded to other smartphones, like the Samsung S3.
If there is a GT-N7000 user, familiar with this problem (having installed the SweetROM V6 and facing problems with S Voice afterwards) and knowing how to fix this, I really would like to hear from him with the solution he found.
Thanks again.
Robert,
Netherlands
All I can say is you need to read all the notes etc on the page you got the ROM from. If you had you will find this;
MORE THEMES & FIXES
3 Great themes for Sweet ROM V6 from kmokhtar79 (Arman, Parsa & Kamran Theme's) - HERE
Multi Window NON TRANSPARENT - HERE (flash in cwm recovery)
Sweet ROM colorful icons on status bar - HERE (flash in cwm recovery)
Stock Battery (no percentage) & Transparent status bar with grey icons - HERE (flash in cwm recovery)
Total Stock Icons and battery with BLACK status bar - HERE (flash in cwm recovery)
SVoice fix. This will remove S4 SVoice and replace with working one from S3- HERE (flash in cwm recovery)
and this;
NOTES
SNote widgets are already set on home screens on TW launcher. They can be moved around the home screens by long press then move to screen of choice. If you delete them and then try put them up again from widget drawer they will now be wrong size. Sorry this is the best work around I have at the moment.
If you use the installed Xperia Launcher the widgets will be the right size.
Please note Snote may stay open in task manager/ active applications until you reboot. This is a known bug. FIXED BY THIS METHOD HERE
If you get SVoice "Can't get to network" error then flash fix above. This will remove S4 Svoice and replace with working one from S3.
Hope this helps you. If you still need help you can find the page HERE
Thank you for your reply.
I think you're doing me a great favor again with this fix. I'll let you kow if it all worked out.
For what it's worth: I DID read this page before, but I (mis)understood that the S Voice-fix, like I said earlier in my above message, was purely ment for the Samsung S3. So that is why I asked for your help. Since I am also very new on the job (flashing my phone that is), I do not hesitate to ask for help at the source. I hope you weren't annoyed...
Regards,
Robert,
Netherlands.
As I promised, I would inform you if the "S Voice" fix dit its job. Well, naturally, it worked as you stated, however I now see that "S Voice" does not show a choice menu anymore. Is this the way this fix works, is this the same way that the "S Voice" is working on the S3 as well, or am I stupidly missing a setting option to have the S Voice choice menu appear again?
Also I noticed, when having the "Sweet ROM V6" fixed, inside "S Note" the virtual red recording button on the top task bar, does not activate. I was hoping this fix would deal with it as well, but it did not. Are you familiar with this problem as well and the way to fix this?
To be clear, I am not critizising at all. I just bump into small issues I would like to know if they can be solved...
I hope to hear from you again.
Regards,
Robert,

Hey,
I'm new here and don't completely know how it works here, so if this thread is in the wrong location, sorry.
I've update my HTC One to stock android 4.3 and sense 5.5 (software 3.62.401.0).
I noticed that when i open messages and i want to click on the three dots/+, in the upper right corner it won't open it.
It flashes blue really fast when i tap it, but it won't open, this also happends when I'm browsing through my photo's and want to share them.
Although I can share them when I open up whatsapp or gmail and the go in the gallery.
I hope someone can tell me if this is a bug or...?
I haven't had this problem with android 4.2
I hope my English is clear enough, it's hard to explain this problem when english is not your native language.

Enable "Animations" in SETTINGS -> DEVELOPER OPTIONS -> ADVANCED. That should get it working.

Thanks for the quick reply!
It's really weird, because sometimes it did work without animations.
I tried it already around twenty times with animations on and it keeps working! :victory:
Will there be a fix that it works without animations? I really hate them, it makes everything feel slow!

Probably somewhere/sometime some dev is gonna find a fix (oh maybe even HTC ), for now we'll have to live with it. It "was introduced" with the 4.3 update, 4.1.2 and 4.2.2 worked just fine.
Hit the thanks button if I helped and if the issue is resolved, please add [SOLVED] to the main thread title. thanks.

I think there's an app in play store for that called No Lock.
Thanks man, it works with No Lock !!
