Hi, I did a rollback to ICS 4.0.3 (v10h). Now, if I have a fullscreen app running (like the network map display in Öffi public transportation app) and I lock the phone (turn it off) and turn it on again, I see the fullscreen app instead of the lock screen. I can get to the lock screen by touching the home button, but this doesn't seem right. Is this usual with this Rom? Can i get rid of this? How?
Anyone?
Maybe thats impossible on 4.0
But you can try out on KitKat. Maybe there is it, what you are searching for

I love my newly rooted Aria... I do however miss my lock screen. I loved having the Aria lock, where you pull the whole lock screen down to get to your apps. With CM6 you get the slide bar to unlock. It's not terrible, but I'd really really prefer to use the old Aria lock screen... Anyone know if this is available anywhere or how I go about doing it? Thanks in advance...
Someone correct me if I'm wrong but I BELIEVE that lock screen is sense ui and since sense (that sounds weird) is proprietary it cannot be added to CM6...there are however many lock screen apps that will allow you to choose something remarkably similar to the sense lock screen...widget locker is one of them.
Also, how did you manage to get the slide? When I unlock (bring my phone back from standby) it just shows me my visible dots for unlock pattern and once I enter that brings me to my home screen...

Hm, did you try just disabling your lock pattern? It's either in the CM6 settings or the ADW Launcher settings. By default after I rooted my phone the lock screen was a little slider bar, not like the iphone slider, it was a little tab on the left of the screen and when you hold it you slide it to the right. I ended up just disabling my lock screen completely but would go back to the old sense lock if I figure out how. I do remember reading somewhere that disabling the dot lock pattern will default to the slider lock screen, should work for you.
Hi all,
Is there an app out there that allows track ball wake to lock screen?
I tried "No Lock" but after with the "Locking Enabled" I can't wake with the trackball.
I also tried "LockBot", which goes to it's custom slider lock screen; however, if it's password lock screen is enabled, trackball won't wake the phone.
What I am looking for is just purely trackball/volume wake, and sliding or password (if enabled) lock screen remains unchanged.
Is there such an app out there (free coz I can't access paid market)?
And is there a widget that can just off the screen?
Thanks.
p/s- my power button no longer works.
I use Lock Enabler to sleep the screen, and Quick Boot for restarts, boot in recovery, etc

Get LockMyDroid from the market.
It was a casual app developed by someone here on XDA. No trackball lock, but long press of search. You get used to it, trust me.
Alternatively you can put a shortcut to it on your homescreen.
Thanks for the comments.
Still doesn't work for me because pressing the trackball doesn't take me to the slider screen.
If you have Cyanogenmod then you can go in settings and set it to where you can wake the screen by pressing trackball.
Best lock screen app I've tried is Lock Now. Haven't had any issues with it - really worth the investment (I'm not the developer ).
What ROM are you running? If it's stock or a largely stock based ROM (MCR for example) you can apply this patch: Link. Basically this will enable trackball wake without any programs.

There's the problem. Most all custom roms will do exactly what you want.
i am searching for an app that make 100% the same when i push the hardware power button.
i have tried many apps/widgets, most switch to the look-screen and 15 sec later the screen goes off.
I want the phone goes immediately off (no 1,2 or more seconds later)
exact the same as the hardware power off.
Rom is original .906, rooted
And yes, under Settings/Security the "set up screen lock" is set to "none" !
please help!
Are you looking for a widget that will lock the screen without you pressing the power button, or an app that disables the stock lock screen altogether, so that if the screen's off and you hit Power it goes straight to your home screen? Both exist, I've used both and they work for me on the stock ROM.

Power ON without screenlock: have it
Power OFF without lockscreen: i search for it. All apps i tried shows the lock-screen and 15 sec. later the phone goes off. I want the phone off in 0 seconds with an app.
Not sure that's possible. You're basically looking for an app that will instantly sever the link to the battery. It would need to be a rooted app, and it would be very dangerous.

I think I understand what you are looking for.
Are you looking for a way to turn off your phone without unlocking the phone?
If so, you can install a lockscreen replacement app such as Widget Locker. Then, even if your phone is locked, you may hold the power button and it will bring up the option to turn off your phone.

on my moto pro i have this working with an app (works not on the d3) .. root are
no problem ... i need only an good app
On the moto pro the app called: lock and screen off widget (1.0.1)
but on the d3 this app shows the lock-screen ... not off (the screen goes off but the phone only 15 sec. later)
1 app that makes the same as the power button for switch off the phone! (The same !!!)
After a lot of searching the web for this kind of app I've finally this thread and was pretty disappointed that there is no solution to this problem! All the existing apps basically fall into one of the two following categories.
1. "Lock togglers" - apps/widgets that upon starting them enable/disable the lockscreen.
2. "Screen lockers" - apps/widgets that upon starting them turn screen off and lock it regardless if the lock screen is turned of by an app of the (1) category.
What we need here is a app which can turn screen off while respecting lock screen policy.
The quest continues....
I think what you're looking for may be in the aosp cm9. There's a toggle in the notification bar the turns off the screen. Try that out if you're wanting to try a different rom.

I just saw the app Elixir 2 mentioned on AndroidCentral.com today. It looks like this has a screen-off toggle widget.

Phone can be unrooted. You do need a widget add-on and an add-on that gives admin permissions for the screen off toggle.

Hello everyone, my lock screen always appears whenever I open an app. Not all apps, but the google play store or SMS or something like that.
The steps I've done:
I've disabled the lock screen completely and removed all codes, and then added them again.
I use an application called No Lock which either enables or disables the lock screen. When I'm home, On GB at least, I use it to not lock the home screen because I don't need security at home. I click the widget to lock the screen when I leave the house to enable it. I've cycled through the on off for this application and still the same results.
Any ideas?
Does anyone else who is using the swipe lock screen (no pattern/pin...) notice that if you performed a google search or had google now open, the power button skips the lockscreen? I have a feeling its not a bug but rather a feature but it annoys me.
