[Q] Looking for an alternative to Widgetlocker - Xperia Arc Themes and Apps

Hi all,
I have some troubles with widgetlocker, it makes my phone unreachable when it is active (!!!). to the other caller, it sounds like I am in a tunnel or something like this....
So, is there anything like it allowing the customization of the lockscreen?
thanks!

[Q] HD2 Changing Keypad Sounds / Dial tones?

Hello!
As the title says, is there any custom dial tones? The sounds while you dial a number are so damn annoying and ugly (Yes, I do know how to turn them off). I'm amazed that no cook has come up with the idea of changing the default sounds.
Is this a technical issue? - As in for example, automated menus that react to stuff like "Press ONE for english, two for Suhali, eth. " don't like custom tones?
I'd really appreciate some help!
Thanks!

[q] sms pop up over pattern lock screen or transparent pattern lock?

First post haha.
Okay so here is my goal: I'd really like to be able to read my most recent text BEFORE I unlock my pattern lock screen. Preferably in the form of a popup. I really don't care if it's over it or on top I just want to be able to read it before I unlock.
I've done a good deal of searching, on xda and elsewhere, and I really can't find any information on how I might be able to do this.
I tried playing with the popup settings in handcent and I have got the pop up to show up over the lockscreen, but if the screen turns back off then I have to unlock the phone to see the text again. Is there anything I can do about that?
I even tried playing around with Sms Popup with no luck either.
Could I perhaps somehow remove the background on my pattern lockscreen so that I can see the popup behind it?
I'd also like to add that I'd really rather not use any third party lockscreen apps like WidgetLocker or Lock 2.0 because I really don't like them.
I know it's kind of a specific question but it's just kind of an aesthetics thing I guess.
I appreciate any and all help. Thanks.

Notifications on the lock screen?

Is it possible to have notifications pop up on the lock screen? I'm thinking specifically of text messages here, as the phone makes a sound but doesn't really give any visual indication apart from a tiny LED blinking away.
Can it be done on the standard UI or do I need to install something else? Sorry for the noobish question, this is my second day using an Android phone
I think you mean like the iPhone does? Because I was just looking into that, but haven't found if a launcher or SMS app. Any help greatly appreciated.
Pretty much like the iPhone does yeah. That's the one drawback I've found so far moving over from iOS
Widgetzoid.....
Ive been using Handcent SMS and it has a feature similar to what you are asking for. Under the applications menu go to Notification Settings, Popup Settings and uncheck Privacy Mode. It works on the Motorola Droid and HTC Sensation.
Check out GO SMS Pro. It's a free messaging app that is skinnable with a theme that looks almost exactly like the iPhone. It also has popup notifications when you have a text, and can even turn your screen on when receiving messages.

How to "hide" the top left icons without silencing the app?

I have an IPcam App called SYSD that keeps 2 annoying icons on the top left of my LG G2 phone, I dont like them at all.
But I need the app to be always on, because it is very important as it should always work, it rings when a motion is detected.
Is there a way to hide these icons without causing an interference in the running app?
Any help? Problem with no solution?
Nothing ?
At all?
You can use something like AOSP Status Bar, but you'll need to root your phone I believe. Any mod that allows you to disable persistent notifications is what you're looking for. There are various options and they're usually specific to your phone model, but that's what you're looking for.

Remove music controls on lock screen

Hi guys, sry for asking you, but I really can't find a solution for this problem anywhere on the internet.
I'm currently on miui 9.5 (rooted) and the problem is, I really can't find a way to disable the music controls on the lock screen (screenshot in attachment)
The only way I found is to change theme of my lock screen, but the default one is perfectly fine for me and I really want to keep it...
So the question is, is there a way to block or hide these annoying ugly music controls on the lock screen? Or, is there any theme with exactly same lockscreen as the default one, but with these controls disabled?
Thank you so much for any help.
