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!

I've got Widget Locker installed and it's extremely better than the default lockscreen. The only issue is the delayed and sometimes inoperable "auto swipe" feature. It likes to work if it isn't in landscape mode.
Is there any way to remove the stock blur lockscreen and replace it with Widget Locker without using easy-wake?
Edit: I'm using Maverick v4.5 if it makes a difference.

But that will also remove the pattern lock from stock. (right??)
I tried numerous apps and hacks to remove the stock lockscreen while remaining pattern lock. There's one app that does it but there's always a delay or glitch.

It's pretty standard procedure for touchscreen devices, isn't it? My iPad makes me swipe to unlock then type in my lockscreen passphrase almost all of the time, as does my iPod Touch.
I prefer it this way, actually. Muscle memory always has my thumb poised to swipe to unlock, and it's easier for me for the procedure to be consistent rather than different when the pattern lock time has passed. It's also easier when I need to tel my wife what to do when we are driving and I get a text message...

No it's not normal. Entering your password/pattern lock already unlocks your phone - there's no need to do a swipe before that.
If only widgetlocker had it's own built-in security features

Close, but this removes the passcode/pattern/password lock. Its almost the same as using the easy wake option without hardware buttons waking the device.
It might not be possible but I'm looking to keep the passcode if it is.

Even with widgetlocker it's still a bit buggy/glitchy. Pretty often the stock lockscreen comes up for me or it flashes for 1sec. Very annoying.
Also when you draw your pattern wrong it will always show the stock lockscreen.
I wish there was a way to JUST remove the lockscreen blur slide screen, without removing the security features
Widget Locker bugs out on me too. It sometimes seems to skip the lock screen and auto swipe on my pass code screen, pushing a bunch of numbers.
Either way, I'll just SeekDroid my phone for security and use Widget Locker until I find a better solution.

Hey all ....
I am having some extremely frustrating problems with Widget Locker Lockscreen here on my HTC One.
First, I can't seem to get the homehelper to work correctly as it doesn't even look like its saving my settings when I switch launchers or anything for testing. I don't need a PIN or security on my phone as deep as setting that, I just don't want the home button to take me to the home screen when on the lockscreen. GO locker did this beautifully for me, and didn't have the second issue below.
Second, when it does work for like 10 seconds, I get an annoying flicker of it trying to paint the homescreen then going back to the lockscreen.
Anyone else experiencing any of these issues or know how to fix them? I have emailed the created of WL a couple of times stating the problems I was having within the app and got nothing back, so its time to ask the XDA Community.
Thanks
I experienced the same problems as you. It was an amazing app when it was on my Nexus one, still is used. But on the Htc One its pretty lackluster. I know I have nothing to contribute but I just uninstalled it...

Your HTC One is running ARHD as well (well from your signature it says it is) ... I am on 11.5.
Can someone on a different ROM check to see if they are having these issues as well? I know a lot of people are using the app so someone on a different ROM shouldnt be hard to find

Hey, I'm on fully converted GE. I use nova/widgetlocker religiously. Unfortunately, I have the same problems when I try to use homehelper. Its like an inefficient workaround, shows the "redraw" of home but tries to maintain WL. This isn't a working solution. I've disabled it and for the time being, I've just tried to ignore the home button while lock screen. Its always just power button or swipe (if i'm using custom kernel) then unlock using lockscreen. I've looked for other lockscreen alternatives but in terms of features, nothing compares to WL. I hope the devs bring out an update in the near future to address these issues.

I was able to get rid of the flicker by turning on "HomeHelper ondemand via root" in Advanced > Root Helper (in addition to enabling HopeHelper). I'm currently on TrickDroid 8.00 and WidgetLocker 2.4beta8.

Turned on HomeHelper ondemand via root .... it stopped the home button bypass of the lockscreen but I still have the flicker
Crazy observation ....
I cleared all my settings, defaults, etc this morning before I posted about the homehelper with root .... and still had the flicker
Just playing around with my phone now I changed my lockscreen to have an alternate background from my home screen .... no more flicker on my device ...
Do you guys have alternate backgrounds? If not, can you try switch to one and see if you still get the flicker?

TrickDroid, as posted above, seems to not have any issues either. Is there anyone else on TrickDroid or ViperRom that has had issues?
I can't see why it would be limited to ARHD and GE Roms on the One, but since I don't know much about how these are put together, I guess anything is possible.
Also to note, after my change yesterday, I haven't had an issue since.

Well I dunno about you. But I am not having any issue for when someone calls me. but then again I didn't put any sort of security on my phone.
I just have Widget Locker Lockscreen enabled. someone calls me goes straight to answer/decline for me
Using default lockscreen, there is this cool feature (widget?) that shows controls and info of music that is currently playing, no matter what is the player you are using (I use both Spotify and Poweramp). Is there similar widget available that could be used with Widget Locker? I have found some that has support for Poweramp, but for spotify none. I'd rather not add both player's own widget to Widget Locker, it would be just spending space (and Spotify's widget is quite ugly).

me too, but that's the problem: you don't have to swipe up to answer or decline the call, the phone is unlocked so you only have to tap answer or decline... this may cause you to accept/decline calls by accident
I would like to have the default incoming call screen where you have to swipe up to accept the call together with widget locker, but I didn't find a way yet to achieve that

Hello,
I'm on 5.0.2 Sony stock FW, rooted. I'd like to be able to add custom widgets to my lock screen (Power Toggles) and to be able to enter my pattern without having to swipe up first. (The dot grid only becomes visible after swiping up from the bottom of the lock screen.)
So basically, I'd like the lock screen to immediatly show a widget and the grid. Notifications are not necessary.
It used to be simple to customize lock the screen... Does anyone know how to get this done?
Thanks!

Lollipop does not support lock screen widgets like KitKat did. I use Power Toggles too and now use the notification feature to show toggles on the lock screen. The reason you have to swipe up is to get past the notifications so you can unlock the device.

Scott, I hadn't considered using the notification feature of Power Toggles. That solves one problem. Thanks!
Also I must admit, coming from an Xperia V, the facial recognition works pretty fast in lock screen. (Found under security > smart lock) That means one swipe usually does the trick towards unlocking.
Sony's not off the hook as far as I'm concerned, though. Reducing customization options is never a good thing.
Besides, I don't like some other decisions they've made. Next up: finding a way to get the kill all apps button back

Glad the notification approach works for you.
Regarding customizations, if you are referring to the lack of lock screen widgets, that is not a Sony customization. It is a change to Lollipop. My Nexus devices to not have lock screen notifications on Lollipop either.

Does anyone have problem using fingerprint to unlock the screen??
I dont really like locking screen using power button but rather use gesture and apps. After updating to Android N EVA-L19C626B320 Official. I cannot normally unlock the screen like before. It keeps asking for password every single time.
EXCEPT when I use power button to lock the phone.
Any idea?

It's normal. Since it not a "user (you)" action but an "admin (you by an app)" action, the system protects your data. You'll not be able to "fix" this since it's supposed to work like this.

Yeah I just contact Nova's developer and they claim to be an issue now.
"Unfortunately this is a known issue in which there is a pop-up window within Nova that tells you about this and that there is a work around if you are rooted. Unfortunately there's no native work around if you're not rooted, however, you can go to the Google Play Store and purchase Screen Lock Pro(this app is not ours) and you can use it as a work around for this issue as well."
I'm having fingerprint problems too. It does not let me set up a new fingerprint anymore and doesn't work in any situation. Worked perfectly since 1 day ago. Using the beta 7.0 android... Any tips?

Your problem is a bit troublesome. Try reset?
I tried to reset, but it still does the same. I did a backup restore and didn't try to use the fingerprint before that. I'll try again tomorrow and see what happens.
Still no hope of fixing the issue din
You need to disable smart unlock. Go to Settings>Security>Trusted Agents disable any smart unlock enabled.
Additional: If you're using Greenify you must enable the "Alternate Screen Off Mode"

If you have root there are two apps that I know of that work perfectly for locking the screen through software:
-->Gesture Control, works very well, just assign any gesture to screen off.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.goodmooddroid.gesturecontrol&hl=de
and
-->Boeffla Screen off, has a slight delay between pressing the button and the screen actually locking, ~1sec nothing bad, but otherwise works very well. Also you can assign this app as an "assist app" meaning your long press home button becomes your screen off button
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.andip71.screenoff&hl=de
If you don't have root I guess this would be a reason to go for it!
