[Q] Replacing Stock Lock Screen? - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've tried Widget Locker and it wasn't totally reliable.
Ideally I want the stock AOSP type lock screen with shortcut to camera.
I tried Alliance ROM which has it in but the ROM didn't feel too smooth so I've switched to ALBA which is running like a dream and so far great battery life.
Anyone know if there's a way to do it? Or if there's another app better than Widget Locker?

Magic Locker main

Thanks for the suggestion.
Using it now seems perfect using the ICS folder pro theme.

[Q] Custom launcher Quick Contacts widget not shown

As the title says.
I'd like to use a custom launcher the blur one is a little laggy. But I love the "Quick Contacts" widget.
But when installing launcher ex or launcher pro it doesn't show. It's there but can't see it. Anyone else had this???
Like you, I LOVE that widget, however, there is yet no way to get it to work in any launcher besides the stock blur

Ugh. That sucks. Hope it will be fixed soon :-(
Go launcher pro has a widget similar to the stock contact widget and you can size it the way you like.

I know I know. But it's for sure not as amazing . If I size it the same it takes a whole screen. The moto one is just awesome. Snifffff
True. It doesn't pull down like the stock one.

Yeah, the stock one is really pretty, animated, and only takes up one line of screen when you don't need it.

Nope, that's a framework theming thing, not something that can be changed by a launcher.
Also, get Trebuchet launcher from CM9. It is much better than Nova.

not that i know of you will have to use a custom rom
Since we're talking launchers: I'm running the ICS update, still locked. I just installed Nova Launcher (not prime, just trying it out for now) and was wondering if there's a way to add the HTC clock widget to it? I don't see any of the HTC widgets listed when I'm running Nova launcher.
I'm guessing those can only be added when using the HTC Sense launcher?
Thanks,

Thanks for the help guys, can't wait for a stock ROM to run.

The main launchers I use are trebuchet and apex. They are much cleaner than nova in my opinion.

Yes you can only use those with the HTC Sense Launcher.
Honestly I like Nova better Trebuchet. It has twice the features of Trebuchet (on just the free version) and they look exactly the same.
Back on subject though StatusBar+ and Super Status Bar are the only notification bar replacement apps that I know of. I've only used StatusBar+ and its themed to look like WP7.
super status bar works but is still buggy but the dev does say it is a beta tried it for a little this afternoon if the bugs get worked out it will be a good program
You can use the UOT Kitchen to mod ur status bar. Ask Google for the link

Q: Notifications bar while on Lockscreen - ICS like

Hi, I used ICS for a while, but was really missing the video decoding and the camera, so I moved back to HyperSense Nova, witch is a great rom. :highfive:
But one feature I really miss is been able to use the notification bar while on the lock screen.
Is there any way to achieve this on Gingerbread?
Thank you very much.

Any good AOSP-like lock screen replacements?

Ok, so here's a little back story. I'm currently running the android 4.2 launcher on the stock Atrix HD android 4.1 update. And I just don't think the stock lockscreen fits with the launcher.
I have tried Holo Locker and Widget Locker and both are very lacking. They leave the software keys on screen and you can still back out of the lock screen by hitting them.
So, basically, I was wondering if there are any better AOSP-like lock screen apps or if there are any mods floating around out there?

There's a setting for Holo Locker that'll make it the default launcher so hitting back or home won't skip it.

[Q] How to customize lockscreen on Stock ROM

Hi guys,
After a couple of months searching a new phone, I finally got the razr i and I'm really happy with it. Althought pleased with the stock rom, I would like to change something : The lockscreen.
In fact, I've succeeded to change launcher with Nova and I'm satisfied with it. However, the lockscreen still have old icons which I don't really like, and also, it vibrate also. I would like to remove that vibration , how can I do?
Thx!!!

I agree. Holo locker is much better and you can get rid of the vibrate as well as change the shortcut apps (no idea why they thought it necessary to have a shortcut to the camera on a phone with a dedicated camera button!)
I also use Holo Launcher as I find it slightly smoother than Nova and you can do swipe up and down gestures on the dock bar.
