so I have found like 200 programs that will change the lock screen for my Captivate .. but they are pretty useless.
I love LockBot but it only works about 20% of the time.. most of the time I get the standard lock screen witch does not have a separate background , and also not safe most of the time, seems to unlock itself too easy..
it seems that lockbot for example, only comes up a few times, then stops, and then starts working agian.. and i thought it was the app killer programs but I uninstlled ALL of them just to make sure that it was not the problem..
ideas.. tricks. help? is there a way to change the lock by something that has to do with root or something like that?
thanks

There's a free app in the Market called "No Lock." You could try using that to disable the stock Captivate lockscreen.
Widget locker + root + "no lock" = sexy lock screen replacement
I run NoLock, and it always works. Never had any issues with it. Only need to unlock when I reboot

the no lock thing works all the time, but any external lock program seems to stop working, and thats the problem.
but i reset my phone to default and it seems to be working fot the time, i have no idea what stoped it.. we will see.

This works for me, catches it about 95% of the time. Only difference is, I don't use no lock.

You don't use no lock? How do you deal with the occasional moments of stock lock screen?

I swipe it away
I can't remember if I've seen this as possible; seen this as a want; or it already exists.
I don't use a lock screen on my phone at all. Sometimes I worry about security, but not enough to deal with a lock screen all the time.
Solution would be that if your phone is out of Bluetooth range of your watch, then you hit a lock screen (with password). If you leave your watch at home or something, then you get to enter your password when you turn on your phone. When you have your watch on, no lock-screen.
This already out there somewhere? Wonder if Tasker could do something like this.
Looking at:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=955092 with Bluetooth plugin, but is there something like this in the Gear store somewhere?
This feature is included in Gear Manager. I use it and it works great.

I just saw the option, but 1 problem - it seems to force you to use a slide unlock when the gear is in range, and pattern unlock when it is not.
Any way to use *no* lock screen when gear in range?
Not that I know of.

Thanks for the replies. Hmm - additional security vs pain of lock screen.
Question I'll have to go look up - I haven't used a lock screen since I was going crazy in my Widget Locker days. I remember reading a lot about being able to customize the screen a bit and/or add some more basic info - how customizable is tge default lock screen nowadays?
Edit: Nevermind, I just went to lockscreen to turn on 'swipe' and got a page full of stuff that disappears when you select 'none' (which is where I was a minute ago...)

Did anyone find a way yet to use a pin rather then pattern lock to use with autounlock? anytime I activate autounlock it prompts for a pattern which is not what I like. I want to use a pin if possible...
Maybe try this app?

I'm not sure if it only disables the lockscreen when you don't have password on, hopefully there's some settings you can mess around with.
Hi all
I use AC locker and something I have noticed is when I unlock ac it flashes my Sony stock lockscreen with lollipop style notifications and then brings up my normal stock password screen, it's doesn't happen every time and I have no idea how to replicate it.... Has anyone else noticed this?

go to settings, then set lock screen security to NONE. it should eliminate the problem.. having a lockscreen app only covers the stock lock screen, it does not "take over", unless you set security to none.

settings>security>screen lock = NONE
So I'm trying to use alternative lock screens like Picturesque and Next Lock Screen on my Nexus 6 running Chroma ROM.
This doesn't seem to be ROM specific.
I have a PIN, and I use Smart Lock with a pebble and locations for work and home.
On both lock screen apps, when I swipe to unlock I am presented with another lock screen, the stock lock screen, so I have to swipe a second time.
So Next lock screen - I swipe down to unlock, then I'm presented with another lock screen with notifications on it, where I have to swipe up to unlock (stock lock screen).
This is likely user error, but I can't figure it out how to only use 1 lock screen. Thanks for the help!
In android settings > security don't you just need to set the lock screen to none?

I guess without doing that only the 3rd party lock screen will be visible. Tried with go locker. Never had this duplicate luck screen issue. Though I used to have such issues with my galaxy s3 sometimes with a specific lock screen app.

That would work, but then I would lose all security on my phone (no pin unlock as a result of setting no lock screen).
This happened on other ROM's so I don't think it's specific to Chroma, but nobody else seems to be having this issue..?

Maybe you need a custom rom. Some have the option to turn swipe off when a PIN / Pattern is applied. At least on KK they did.
IMHO< The stock lock screen is too good to pass up so maybe not many people have tried. Or maybe some lockscreen apps seek to use root to turn off stock swipe (again they used to try)
I guess I'm going to hope this issue is fixed with 5.1.
Anyone know how to enable it? I have not found a way yet.
