I'm not really interested in theming my captivate very much (yet...) but I'd absolutely love to change the dumb ass lock screen... I hate the thing.
How might one go about changing this and is there a recommended replacement?
Currently running Cognition 2.1.4, lagfix disabled.
The app that most use is WidgetLocker, as it seems to be the most stable of the lock screen replacement apps. I purchased it, but don't use it because it's not quick enough for my taste.
With the stock lock screen, it's the first thing that pops up when you turn the phone on. With WidgetLocker, I would often get a brief delay where I would see the home screen before WidgetLocker kicked in. I hate that delay, so I've gone back to the stock pattern input lock screen.

Use the app called "no lock" to fix that problem

Tried that, didn't do the trick. Instead of getting a brief glimpse of the stock lock screen, I instead get a brief glimpse of the home screen.
Did you use either the home replacement or the root override? With those, I rarely get the stock screen, maybe 1 in 20 times.
I sort of like the lock screen. IMO, its much better than the Samsung Fascinate's lock screen. It's standard lock screen is the jigsaw puzzle.
I like how the Captivate's lock screen can be slid any direction to unlock, seems to make it really easy for me to just grab the phone and then flick the screen in any direction with my thumb.
anybody had any luck in getting that puzzle lock screen from the vibrant or fascinate? i know we have one when a call has been missed but i want that to be the main lockscreen.
Hi everyone,
Hope this is the right place to ask.
It seems after flashing my phone i can't lock my homescreen anymore.
It still shows the 2 screens in to refit your photo/pic bit if i use the vertical one he just adjust size and put on landscape anyway.
I go to photo/menu/more/set as/homescreen/and choose the vertical window.
Hope anyone can help me out.
Stupid question, I have been forced to use a lockscreen on my Z3C for security purposes, however i would like when i change my wallpaper for my homescreen and lockscreen to change simultaneously.
I know on iOS devices, when you apply a wallpaper you get the option for home, lockscreen or both.
Is there a way of doing this on the Z3C that im just not seeing or did sony/android just omit this feature entirely?
Settings-personalization--wallpaper for home screen.
Settings-personalization--lock screen for lock screen.
or
from a picture you hit the 3 dots on up right corner and use as.
the option like iOS i think there isn't,you just have to make the same thing twice
thanks punkyd but i know those methods, i just wanted a method to do both at once.
This has been bugging me as well
I used to have double tab nav bar to turn off display on my previous Pixel and Nexus phones (rooted of course) but don't have a nice way to configure it here.
I ended up downloading Custom Navigation Bar (app) to add two buttons to the side but they're for "menu" and "search".
If there isn't a way to configure the hard press I'll just change one of the above to do it, but I like having those two options as well on the lower part of the phone.
This is perhaps not what you want, but I'm using Nova launcher and I set it to lock the phone at a double tap. Of course, this doesn't work if you're in another app, but I go to Home anyway before I lock the phone.

yeah i'd like to have something that can be used from anywhere. also nova's screen lock feature hard locks the phone, requiring a pin/pattern unlock (not the face/finger print unlock). i have my bixby button remapped to do this, just for that super rare occassion when i'm someplace and need my phone locked immediately.
Hi... when I swipe right from the home screen I get a split screen. Is there a way to customize that to put whatever apps you want?
Also... when I open AA it always defaults to the Map. Is there a way to customize the default screen?
Thanks
