Hey guys!
I'm wondering on how to remove the TouchWiz lockscreen because I'm about to use Lockbot wich act buggy with TW Lockscreen, it shows the TW Lockscreen before switching over to Lockbot.
Is there an APK somewhere i can remove to get rid of TouchWiz lockscreen (the one with the puzzle sliding etc.) ?
Thanks in advance masters!
Im in a similar predicament, i actually am using a passcode right now so it doesnt look like touchwiz

Thank you for your reply, the problem is I cannot use Lockbot now because the TW Lockesreen messes it up. Also on Exlair (Android 2.1) it is not possible to set up a passcode, FroYo is needed for that plus this won't fix my Lockbot issue either. I alreafy did some diging in the APK folders but couldn't really sort it out. You are on FroYo I believe? It is possible to set a SIM pincode but that doesnt help aswell.
PEACE!
The free app NoLock will remove your lockscreen entirely, if you press power/home to wake your phone it will immediately be unlocked. There are several apps on the market to replace your lockscreen with a different style but in my experience these aren't completely satisfying - sometimes the original lockscreen appears for a splitsecond, other times they're just not as responsive and may take a second longer for you to unlock the phone.
Regardless, just try searching the market for 'lockscreen' and see what you find. WidgetLocker is pretty good but not free.
Indeed I am on Froyo, I wasn't aware it isn't available on eclair. Well, if anyone else finds further development besides market apps that seem to slightly lag please help out!

This is exacly my problem, LockBot is one of these tools, it shows the default TW Lockscreen for a second before switching to LockBot Lockscreen, this is exacly why i want the TW Lockscreen removed
Oh and thanks for thinking with me
Download SGS INFO on the forum here install and run the app selecting set powerbutton action. Select the tickbox and this will permantly disable the lock screen until you select otherwise.
The beauty if this is that it doesnt use a 3rd party app to do this just provides a shortcut to hidden options within the SGS.
Hope this helps.

You can also easily revert back to the stock lock (...and two smoking barrels! ) screen by modifying the code in /system/framework/android.policy.odex.

i installed the app. but when i choose set powerbutton action, i have only this one on the list :
shutdown: enable to shutdown on end call long press.
thats not right or ?
which code must i enter to disable lockscreen.
and would it be the same code to reactivate the stock lock screen ?

when i tick off the shutdown option, then 3 things happen:
1. the question if i really want to shut down my phone is gone. (i think this is the real action, what it does)
2. when i restart my phone, the sim card is not accepted, its even not asked for pin. i tried 3 times, so its not working
3. the lockscreen is gone.
so i need an other option, maybe i will deinstall it completly.
or has someone an other suggestion ?

Hey Rambone!
Most of the times these apps don't work together with apps such as LockBot for getting another lockscreen. Will try it out tho, thanks for the heads up
Great job on your ROM's b.t.w. mate, really awesome! Keep up the good work!
location of sgs download

Hello I'm kinda of a noob to this stuff (not kinda really lol) and I was wondering where can I locate this sgs download on the forum
Well this one isn't so difficult but I though I'd share for those that have not worked it out yet.
The LG Device Test "HiddenMenu" is apparently on all shipping phones and it's simply disabled via removing the menu entry.
To activate you need to create a shortcut to this hidden menu. You can do this with most replacement launchers and apps like BetterCut.
Example using LauncherPro (others will use a similar method):
Long press on home screen
Select Shortcuts
Select Activities
Scroll down to and expand com.lge.hiddenmenu
Select HiddenMenu (first entry)
Enter Shortcut name
Click on shortcut to launch
Hit 'Thanks' below
Also now Logcat app:
As above
Scroll down to and expand LG Debug
Select LG Debug (first entry)
Enter Shortcut name
Click on shortcut to launch
Hit 'Thanks' below
Enjoy the vast amount of options and tests in there, and be careful as some are destructive.
Perhaps Useful:
Dim Capacitive Buttons: Device Test | Touch LED Brightness
Turn on Camera LED: Device Test | Camera Test | Torch Flashlight Preview
Wtf I just dimmed my touch buttons nice.
The brightess of the buttons was to bright for using the phone as a ebook reader at night the setting stays avyive even after exiting the test.
Btw is the thanks button only displayed on the site and not in tge xda app?
Thanx!

What specifically is that? I use WidgetLocker and don't experience lag... does it taker a while with the stock one to become responsive? I can't recall that.

Sometimes it goes to homescreen and then the lockscreen, when it's been idle for some time.
It also happens with widget locker for me.

I experience the same issue, but even more annoying, it keeps displaying unread messages on the lockscreen until i reboot.
I'm using Handcent, guess the lockscreen gets the unread count from the original messaging app. If anyone know of a fix, please do share.
Hi alls. For those experiencing some nagging issues like lag or bugginess, are your phones rooted to Gingerbread or...? Thanks!
No, rooted stock froyo 2.2.2 in my case.
Gingerbread isn't out yet :-(

I don't think I get the former, but certainly dodgy behaviour immediately after boot.
I have started getting the message count now when the stock screen flashes up. It seems to count all messages, read or otherwise.
Perhaps somebody can start a confirmed & common bugs thread in General for a good collection of them.
Some more:
I can't use a long complex password to connect to a WiFi-G AP, but a simple password works just fine.
Music controls return to notification shade sometimes after a reboot, box in Music app is still unchecked.

No problems with the above and lock screen, I'm using Launcher pro and Pattern lock.
These are bugs i'm experiencing:
[Not realy a bug but a LG feature]Multiple exchange accounts disabled in LGemail app. Resolved by using the Android mail client and freezing LGemail (thanks for that ).
Camera brightness not listening to "auto" brightness, but uses the manual settings. Maybe it`s just me, but can somebody check the brightness of the camera app after setting the brightness to minimal and then check "Auto".
Hi Guys;
Is there a working APP for HD2 which can set LED on for charging, blinking for missed call etc?I tried many from Market but worked very weirdly!
Also i am missing the old notes of WIndows mobile where we could write with the hand to save a note.I found an app for Android but it saves as an image and then it cannot be modified any more
Any suggestions for these two?
Thanks
For the first one:
If you're using a CM7 based build,(it should already be enabled) but you can set it from settings>cyanogenmod. Otherwise, install "Led Me know" from market.
For the second:
Sorry, I don't know
Thanked.But where is the LED in the CM settings?i cannot find it.I have American android!

Weird, I have it on CM7 (HyperDroid NAND) . Your best bet is to try Led Me know.
P.S : (it possibly could be due to the light libraries, maybe AmericAndroid is using the new ones? ) idk )
LED me know works great.

To all of you who don't like the bright lights on hardware keys, both suggestions are for stock or stock based ROMs, search in Play Store:
LG Touch Key Lights
(don't know for stock ICS, but for for GB there was a workaround in hidden menu, but hey an app with "Set on boot" are way more comfortable) than hidden menu. Searching this might lead to some other goodies, I know many have had requests for the hardware keys for notifications like:
LG Touch Led Notification
Let's hope he'll update it or some of our devs continue it as touch led is no longer under active developed
As both apps described there's no link, the authors deserves all attentions.
While at it, I'm planning to zip all my Xperia mods like Sony Walkman, launcher, album, clock, weather and more, but it won't happen before:
1. Got the authors permission to zip them or
2. Just link to their treads
Anyway, can't promise yet, but I hope to get this done as those o2x owners who appreciate Xperia launcher and minimalism deserves even more from Xperia

I tried it with V28e, didn't work for me... Was working perfectly on GB, though.
i disable mine in v28g ICS in display settings.. i think it saves me more batery juice..
i used to have that app to turn the lights off, but it only works on GB...so i asked here and someone told me about this app called RootDim, wich works perfectly on ISC and JB

exactly, and there's no need for other program to install.
1. The Sony player (without audio gadgets Sony , pure player) , will be officially updated through the play store.
2. Mod removes seconds large symbols of the G / E / 3G / 4G (android 6).
3. Enabling "guest" (android 6) .
4. Separate the choice of ringtone for each SIM (android 6) .
To install in TWRP recovery.
The presence of the backup welcome and do not forget that any, even the slightest change in the system will not be updated officially by air (return stock recovery will not help).
Thank you for working on this amazing phone. We really need some custom ROM support though , a optimized kernel and governor would really make this fly.
