Lock Screen Apps

I've read that the apps on the lock screen cannot be changed. I used Handcent for texting. Is there anyway to get Handcent to come up on the lock screen?

Maybe you can try go lockscreen. To change it. Because so far you can not change anything.

Widget Locker is a good fully customizable lock screen alternative.

Whatever texting app you set to default should act as the app that gets used when you swipe down on the lock screen. I'm using go SMS and it works. Even the default texting homepage icon takes me to my default app (go SMS) and the widget popup still works.

Camera shortcut

Is there a way to have a camera shortcut from the lock screen if a pin lock is enabled? I would guess not, but would be a sweet mod. I've got kids and am always taking pics in the moment, but I have to use a pin lock, so I do miss the shot some times.

Try using widgetlocker from the app store. You can set up custom wallpaper and add widgets and shortcuts to it. The camera app bypasses the lock screen

Any app or tweak to mimic aosp lock screen notifications??

So I tried a few aozp Roms and came back to a stock based ROM due to issues. One thing I love about the aosp Roms is the lock screen notifications. I tried nils lock screen and while it is similar I am unable to tap the notification and go right to the app. I still have to swipe to unlock my phone.
Has anyone found a tweak or app that will do that; tap the lock screen notification and then go right into the app.

Installed 3rd party lockscreen

I installed KK Locker and it gives you the option to disable default locker so you don't have to unlock two screens. This does work when the screen goes to sleep on its own, however, when I hit the power button to manually put it to sleep, when I turn it back on I have to unlock both the default Sammy lock screen and KK locker. Do any of you know if there is something that I can do to find and disable the Sammy lock screen? Thanks in advance for any help

Have you gone into settings/device/lockscreen and selected NONE for the screenlock settings? Disabling through that 3rd party app is sometimes not enough.

It was my understanding that the Sammy lockscreen could not be disabled...but maybe I misunderstood.
